Normal Skills and Abilities(limit of 5)
Her type of energy spells is weird one. Unlike most magical users she is drawing energy from inner source, instead of outer (meaning she is not drawing powers from elements, but from spirits and energies she consumes, through crystals, living beings, magical sources etc), and cannot contain energy within herself for long, meaning that whatever she took from others she leave her body in the short term and she will be powerless. To solve this problem she is carrying gems and other jewelries and crystals into which she insert some amount of energy she took or absorb (she needs to be careful doing so, because each gem or equipment can only absorb certain amount of power before exploding or melting).
"Channeling of spirits"- a gift of unknown origin allows her to link her spirit directly to anyone she touches, which enables her to heal others (to a point, as she cannot regrow limbs if they are chopped) or absorb energies from others (which she can use as energy source for magic). This gift is almost perfectly mastered, but if she is weak, tired, or too emotional, the control over this ability is lost to her, causing her to accidently absorb energy, or damage herself.
"Assuming direct control"- as she is capable to link with others through touch, she can seize command of a being, up to 20 minutes at the max, capable of installing a single command or two into the being which was subjected to her will. This kind of effect can only be done once a day, and makes her extremely weak afterward.
"Light and thunder"- She is capable to control light based magic, which enables her to blind her opponent or electrify him. Since her magic is based on the level of personal energy and duration of enchantment, the weak she is and the less time she has to work on her magic, the weaker the effect will be. Between each powerful attack she needs to recharge her energies, and she often uses crystals to enhance her power. One powerful energy attack costs her one shards and she often carries only 3, as they are extremely costy and easy to get lost.
"Invoke the might of gods"- she is capable to enhance other living beings or pieces of equipment with power, to a point, boosting the possible damage. This requires her to have a direct touch with the being or item in question.
"Scrolls of power"- As she herself cannot often relay on magic, she can use scrolls that she can write and charge with magic for instant effect. She often creates up to 5 scrolls each week (as they take time and power to make). Upon use they turn to ashes and disappear into thin air.
Weapons:
Set of throwing daggers, which she can either refill by picking them up from the ground after she throw them, or at the store (always carry at least 10).
Glowing orbs- She needs to admit them in 4 corners around her and they can serve as a semi shield for a limited time (until it runs out of power, or until enough damage is done to the barrier. The smaller range it covers, the more powerful it can become). Once the stones have been drained they break and needs to be replaced at the nearest store of magic, and needs to be charged with energy. The stones/gems most be identical.
Mitzva- Ceremonial Kris she carries around if she needs to fight someone from close distance. It has gems invoke in it, which she can charge with her energy for higher effect of damage.
Armor (one sensible suit of armor):
She is wearing an elegant cloths (as seen in the picture), which enable her swift movements. If needs be she will wear light armor, but she most often rather to be protected and being in the far back than getting into real battles herself.
Equipment:
Backpack filled with supplies, parchment and inks, feather pan, surgical knife, basic makeup, sewing kit, gems, money, maps and other important documents and books.
Personality:
She is classy and a little cold. She has weird sense of humor, and enjoys sleeping and drinking. She will often place herself before others
Likes: Drinking, stories, magic, battles (from afar), drama, sleeping, good food and music, nice clothes, gems and jewels.
Dislikes: vulgar people, stupid and naive people, stubborn and risk taking people, proud people. Politicians, nobles, schemes, ambushes, traps, when things don't go the way she wants them to, waiting for others.
Background:
Started as a maid from poor background, and worked as the right hand of a princess, from the kingdom of Salivan. She quickly rose in ranks and position, mainly because of her beauty and unorthodox thinking. When the princess became queen, she too, in turn, became a close bodyguard, advisor and a general. The king the queen married also liked her and gave her more important jobs and decision to make, including manors and servants and many wonder if there was more between the two than meets the eyes.
The rumors had some grain of truth, as Sheva learned quickly of the king intention for her, but refused his calling to his bed chambers because she felt loyal to the queen whom she served.
Little did she knew that the queen and king grew apart regardless, and when the envy of the queen reached a boiling point she plotted a scheme. Through a court of lies and deceptions, made of other envious military and nobles, Sheva was convicted as traitor to the kingdom. Outraged from her coming hang, she stormed at the queen, and without understanding how or what, her magic took form as she nearly depleted the queen from her energy.
While her hands still sizzling with life, she broke free from the court, running away to never be seen in said kingdom. She doesn't even know what fate has come for her family.
To anyone hearing her name, one could already deduce her as traitor as she never bother to clear her name, and decided to isolate herself to master her abilities which frighten her to this day.
She was able to form other friendship and relationships, including being the apprentice of many mages, but she never stayed around much, fearing of another betrayal.
Other:
The gems were sparkling like new born tush, as she cleaned them with a rug, making sure the dust was not catching on after rubbing them thoroughly. Even though fighting the dust seems impossible feat, it was necessary, for maintaining gem in new position enabled them to gain more power. At least that's what she hoped the case with them was.
Under the dim light of the half eaten candles, scrolls were lying unfinished, but she found no motivation within herself to finish the spells. Few knew of the art of writing scrolls was almost identical to the art of other type of writing of painting, and they required sophisticated levels of creativity in mastering of the words that needs to be spoken when invoking the elements.
As she continued to clean the gems, she realized she was, in fact only distracting herself from finishing the scrolls and decided that if she was not going to do anything productive she might as well just call it a night and go to sleep. She blew at the candle and darkness took over the room.
