Post by Vanilla Ermfield on Aug 22, 2011 21:40:36 GMT -8
Age: 27
Gender: Female.
Species/Race (human, furry type, robot, alien, etc.): Anthropomorphic ermine.
Height: 5' 10"
Build: Strong and athletic.
Coloration (skin, scales, fur, feathers, hair, etc.): Most of her fur is a rich brown, with the tip of her tail being black. The lower half of her muzzle and the front of her neck are as white as vanilla ice cream. She also has brunette human-like hair on her head.
Eye Color(s): Medium brown.
Clothing (armor): Simple, modest blue robe.
Occupation / Class: Fragrance Mage (maker of magical perfumes, colognes, scented candles, and incenses.)
Affiliations (family, friends, organizations): Her family and friends are all back in her home world, but she is sure to make new friends in Tairachi!
Accessories (weapons, jewelry, tools, magic items, vehicles, etc.): Almost always carries with her a large, black traveling case containing a myriad of perfumes, colognes, and incenses. Many of these fragrances are magical. She also keeps a few other items in the case, such as matches for lighting incense and scented candles, censers for holding the burning incense, a flute, a pencil and some paper, and a few other knickknacks. The case looks heavy (and is) but Vanilla has no trouble carrying it around.
Vanilla also usually has a bag of sugarcane in her pocket, in case she finds herself in the mood to chew some.
Pets: None.
Abilities/Skills & Power Level: Vanilla is an ermine of many talents, but her specialty is making magical perfumes, colognes, scented candles, and incenses. She has learned the art of enchanting fragrances with magical properties. She frequently experiments to discover new magical fragrances.
The magical effects of the scented items Vanilla makes usually last for about 20 minutes or until the person can no longer smell the item, whichever comes first.
An important note - The power of every one of Vanilla's magical fragrances is related to scent in some way, even if a person has to wear the perfume or cologne to get the effect. A creature without a sense of smell cannot be affected by any of her magical fragrant items.
She also makes many different perfumes, colognes, scented candles, and incenses which don't produce any magical effects, but she often incorporates magic into the production to make the fragrance truly unique and awe-inspiring. She has come up with items that smell like everything from ordinary things like baking bread, to truly exotic scents such as various types of dreams.
Not all of her interests lie in the field of fragrances. She also spends some time painting, playing the flute, giving massages, and cooking. She is fairly skillful in each of these fields.
She also spends time exercising and practicing martial arts.
Vanilla is strong enough to fully lift 260 pounds. She has a top running speed of 25 MPH. She is very agile, but not quite agile enough to be an Olympic gymnast.
Vanilla's preferred martial arts style is one that focuses on punches and jumps. She is just barely skillful enough to have a black belt.
She has also started writing poetry.
----------------------------------------------------------
The magical fragrances Vanilla has discovered thus far are listed below. She is sure to discover many more.
Except when otherwise noted, her enchanted perfumes and colognes only affect somebody wearing them, but enchanted incenses and scented candles affect everybody who smells them clearly.
Strength(perfume/cologne)-Anybody who wears at least an ounce of this magical perfume/cologne will magically become physically stronger. Depending on how strong the dose is, lifting capacity might increase from anywhere from 20 extra pounds to 100 extra pounds. Vanilla has even managed to make an extra pure batch that increases a person's strength to the point of 500 extra pounds of lifting capacity, but that concentration is so difficult to make that it must be saved for emergencies.
Silence(incense/scented candle)-Dims all sound in the area. Good for quiet meditation.
Clarity(incense/scented candle)-This particular magical fragrance comes in five varieties. Each one will conjure memories of something beautiful associated with one of the five senses (of course, they're all pleasing to the sense of smell.) Each one will also heighten one of the five senses for everybody within scent range.
Heroism(perfume/cologne)-Instilled with a small amount of liquid goodness, this fragrance is extremely pleasant to good people, and wretchedly foul to evil people. Unlike other perfumes/colognes, this one affects everybody in scent range.
Friendship(incense/scented candle)-The scent of friendship itself, it empowers those who smell it to feel friendship with others in a whole new way as long as they remain in scent range.
Soaring(perfume/cologne)-Empowers the wearer to jump three times as high and far.
Swiftness(perfume/cologne)-Grants the wearer fleetness of foot so they may run as swiftly as the wind.
Concentration(incense)-A very non-distracting fragrance that also lets those in scent range concentrate extra well on something.
Pink(incense/scented candle)-Turns people's noses pink. Useful for a bit of mischievous fun.
Growth (perfume/cologne) - Vanilla has recently managed to make her most powerful magical perfume/cologne ever. The fragrance is called Growth. It causes the wearer to grow to the size of a giant (usually a little over 40 feet tall, and with tremendous physical strength.) Of all of Vanilla's fragrances, this one is by the far the most difficult to make. She only gets to make use of it on rare occasions.
Growing Skies (perfume/cologne) - This fragrance is made by mixing Growth and Soaring, along with a special catalyst. The scent calls to mind growing skies and expanding possibilities. The wearer grows wings, and gains the ability to fly.
Taur Form (perfume/cologne) - This fragrance is made by mixing Growth, Strength, and Swiftness, along with a special magical catalyst. It transforms the wearer into a four-legged 'taur version of himself or herself. The 'taur form has great strength and speed, along with many other benefits that come with having four legs in addition to two arms.
Note - Vanilla thinks that there might be many ways to mix Growth with other magical fragrances in order to create new effects. It's an exciting discovery indeed!
Weaknesses: Gullibility-It is fairly easy to fool Vanilla into believing that a lie is true.
Inadequate caution-Vanilla loves new experiences so much that she frequently rushes to them without considering the consequences. She often doesn't listen to her fear when she should.
Reliance on items-Vanilla doesn't have any special powers when she is without her magical fragrances. Often, somebody can nullify the effect of one of her perfumes by drenching her with water to wash it off, or end the effect of an incense by extinguishing the flame that is burning the incense.
Guilt-Vanilla feels horribly guilty whenever she does anything to hurt a good person or lets somebody down. Sometimes she is so overwhelmed with guilt that her personality undergoes a major reversal for a time. She goes from being cheerful and energetic to being horribly sad and depressed.
Fear of failing others-Vanilla hates to let others down. Sometimes, she becomes so focused on her own determination to help that she can't make good decisions.
Special Effects (if any): Each of her magical perfumes/colognes/incenses has a fragrance that will remind those who smell it of something directly related to the item's power.
Description of Personality: Kind-hearted, friendly, energetic, curious, and loving life. Vanilla tries very hard to make others happy, be friendly, and enjoy life.
She loves hearing about other people. Their hobbies, occupations, and lives are all of great interest to Vanilla.
She believes that life should be experienced with all of the senses. She also seeks to show others the beauty of life. Quite often, she'll use one of her five varieties of Clarity incenses to let somebody see/hear/smell/feel/taste something in a whole new way.
Vanilla is truly a philosopher of the senses. She often rambles on and on about philosophy related to one of the five senses.
She is very difficult to truly anger, but there are some things that make her mad. In particular, she tends to get quite angry if anybody hurts one of her friends.
Though she is cheerful and optimistic, there are times when she worries, and she does get sad sometimes.
When she's feeling down, smelling a pleasant fragrance she has never smelled before is an excellent way for her to cheer up.
Vanilla can also be a very determined warrior. She is extremely loyal to her friends, and will protect them determinedly. Moreover, she has a strong dislike of evil and villainy, and will fight to protect good people.
Brief History: Vanilla was born in a largely modern world, though the world has some magic, some evil monsters, and far more untamed wilderness than Earth.
At a young age, Vanilla began to really like her mother's vanilla-scented perfume. She also learned that her mother named her after her favorite scent. The young ermine child quickly developed a love of beautiful fragrances.
Vanilla also began practicing martial arts at a young age since monsters were known to occasionally show up in the area where she lived.
When she was 15, she met her best friend. This person showed Vanilla the joys of working out, and being strong and fit.
Around this time, Vanilla also began to take an interest in magic and enrolled at a mage's academy that was within driving distance of where she lived.
When Vanilla was 16, she discovered a way to make magical perfumes. Somehow, this form of magic came to her naturally, and she quickly began to experiment with it. Before long, she was also making magical colognes and incenses.
Excited by the discovery of a new form of magic, many other mages began to experiment with Fragrance Magic.
Eventually, Vanilla started her own school of fragrance magic. An encounter with a kitsu lead to Vanilla and her school being transported to the world of Tairachi.
A brief and character revealing answer to the question, "What is your ambition?": To become a great fragrance mage so I can fill people's lives with beautiful fragrances and fill their hearts with happiness!
