Summon:
Fault summons a giant frilled lizard named Taavi. He is rather large, although only standing almost 1/2 a foot tall from the shoulder, he makes up for his height in length and weight. As a 6 foot long (with the tail This is roughly the size of a green iguana) 40 pound lizard, Taavi doesn't have much to say. He's a rather quiet companion to Fault, keeping her company when she needs it and also trying to talk her out of bad habits she has, reassuring her when she is in one of her moods (but this is more when others aren't around). He barely talks when he's among other beings, making it seem at first glance he's mute. Sure enough what he lacks in speech is unequal to his strength, with his massive crushing jaws in the middle of a giant fearsome fan around his face. (If you have no idea what I'm talking about when I say frilled lizard please see: www.wildlifewindowgraphics.com/images/art/FrillingFrilled-LizardX.jpg, of course Taavi looks a little more scary than that XD) He is a gradient shade of black, red and yellow, his scales sharp and rough and as far as build he is very muscular and thick.Power:
Due to what happened in her past (to have this make more sense please see history), Fault is able to admit a noxious gas from her body that causes her enemies to go into a disoriented state. This is from her addiction to marijuana she had before she died, as this gas relates very closely to the vapour the psychoactive drug gives off.Weapon:
(Please let me know if this is body or not I wasn't sure ._.
Fault carries around a simple dagger. It's roughly 8 inches long (5 inches of blade) and very sharp. With a simple black handle, her weapon isn't much to be afraid of, although a knife is useless until you put a wielder behind it, and if Fault is the one holding it, you pretty much just dug your grave.Appearance:
Fault is an expert at hand to hand combat, as carried from her past in getting into street fights with other drug dealers. The dagger she carries is usually a last resort when fighting but if she really needs to hurt someone she will.
Fault is exactly 5'9" tall and weighs roughly 130 pounds making her very skinny and fragile. Her frame is light and her limbs are pretty much like sticks attached to her body. She is also incredibly pale with the exception of faint red scars that cover her skin, burns that were carried over from her death in her past life, mainly around her legs and over her stomach, up her right arm and around to the left side of her neck pushing a little past the edge of her jaw bone. She has big brown eyes that almost always seem sad but there is a certain tenseness about them. She sports a dark burgundy headband that sits just above her eyebrows holding her mid-back length, partially braided, reddish brown hair. Simply she resembles something earth goddess-like, wearing long colourful skirts or capri pants, earth toned shirts or pullovers. It's hard to say really what she wears or looks like on a concrete basis because her moods seem rather bipolar. On days where her depression takes over and her world falls apart, her hair is a mess, her eyes are hard and cold and she wears rather neutral clothes, if any at all. (See Behaviour for more information)History:
Faults history is strange. Originally named Nicole Baringer, Fault grew up living in a family that couldn't really provide for themselves. Her father could barely pay the bills working as a dishwasher in the local pub and her mother had taken off after Nicole was born. Although broken-hearted, Nicole's father tried his best to provide a normal life for his only daughter, but soon he had turned to drinking to help cope with his problems, neglecting Nicole as she reached the age of 16.Behaviour:
Nicole had decided around 17 that she wanted to help her father and pay him back for all his effort to keep her life as normal as possible. After being fired from several jobs for only being the daughter of "the lowest deadbeat f**kup in this end of town" Nicole turned to one of the worst possible choices of work and began to make and sell her own street drugs.
It was a flawless system she set up. She could distribute the crystal meth she made in her basement without the detection of her father as well as pay the bills without him realizing. She also was able to sell weed to other drug dealers, however, she got in many fights because of the price she charged for it, where she had learned to fist fight and wield a knife. To cope with the pain and stress of her new life, she started to smoke marijuana and learned to recognize the scent as a wonderful disorientation and numbness she craved.
Although a few months after her 18th birthday, Nicole was startled when her dad came downstairs to discover her meth lab, knocking over several bunson burners that set her basement up in flames. Nicole and her father were burned to death as well as her childhood home became only piles of ash. It is because of this that not only explains her fear of fire, Nicole blamed herself for everything she ever did, especially her fathers death, and always puts herself the one at Fault.
Fault has 2 sides to her personality that is often affected by those she mingles with. Her first side is her happy side though it seems more neutral than anything. She often is seen singing to herself and sometimes (though rare) engrossed in a conversation with another being. She is often quiet and self disclosed but when drawn out in a fight she emits a silent passion that her enemies fear.Other:
This however is the best anyone will ever see her. On days when her depression takes over, everything seems to fall apart. On these days she screams and whimpers continuously, crying infinite tears and will often be heard crying "I'm sorry dad! I'm sorry! Help! Help!" but this is really the only sensible thing she says, the rest of her speaking garbled cries and almost like she's speaking in tongues. She's also been known to lie down in the fetal position and do nothing but stare off into space and it takes hours till she snaps out of it. These are the days that often no one will want to go near her let alone try, and in worse case scenarios Fault will try to injure or kill herself some way, so far always avoided by comforting words from Taavi or others restraining her. The day after she wakes up of course she remembers nothing of what happened and continues on with her normal neutralish personality.
This bouts of anxiety are usually brought on by glimpses of fire or the smell of alcohol, but may be totally random without meaning or pattern. Taavi is trying to develop a way to detect and avoid these outbursts but he keeps his observations secret from anyone but himself, as even Fault is completely oblivious to any of it.
Not that I can think of I will probably draw her to give people a better idea of what she looks likeJournal:
