Typhonia Whitwell

Gender: Female

Special Characteristics: Yellow eyes, forked tongue, patches of scales on her body

Personality: Typhonia is always serious, perhaps to a fault. Humor is generally lost upon her as she tends to take things people say at face-value. This isn't to suggest that she is witless or guileless, however, having developed a knack for intimidation and manipulation from her years in the employ of the hidden blades guild. She harbors a deep-seated superiority complex, believing her status give her a sort of "divine right" over the lesser, more mundane, non-magic using individuals; seeing them more as prey and playthings to amuse her more than as actual people. Naturally, this does little to endear her to individuals, but that's something she is seemingly okay with.
However, despite this attitude, she does place some stock in human interaction. As unlikely as it may be, once she warms up to an individual and puts down some of her guards, she can prove to be a very trustworthy ally. In battle, she strikes fast and true, much like a serpent would, hoping to end the engagement before it can ramp up. She's definitely not afraid of playing dirty, including using poisons, tricks, and underhanded tactics if she can get away with; whatever she can to give herself an edge over her opponent.  Typhonia is able to function in a team, but prefers to take on tasks by her lonesome, mostly, as she finds working with and having to juggle other people cumbersome. In most social situations, she enjoys watching from the sideline and observing as individuals interact with one another. When approached, she can more often than not come across as standoffish and defensive, deflecting with wry humor and scathing jabs. Unlike most people, Typhpnia is a true introvert, preferring her lonesome to most social situations, with a select few only getting the privilege of really knowing her.

Likes:

• Brutal honesty - No matter how much the truth might hurt, she prefers honesty to straight up lying.
  
• Wry humor - She is a big fan of sarcasm and the like.
  
• Reptiles - She essentially is one.
  

Dislikes:

• High pressure social situations - She doesn't particularly care for social situations as is, so adding an extra element of pressure makes it even worse.
  
• Disparaging comments about her serpentine appearance - She's somewhat self-conscious about her serpentine appearance.
  
• Loud noises - She has very sensitive ears.
  

Motivations:  

• Proving her superiority - She see's herself as a superior being and thus put on the earth to do to people whatever she wants; other people are toys.
  
• Testing her mettle against those stronger than her - She also has a very competitive streak, constantly measuring herself against those stronger, believing conflict begets fortitude.
  
• Developing her own magic - She'd like to be able to fully develop her own magic as to leave her mark upon the world.
  

Fears:

• Losing her magic abilities - She puts a lot (too much) value in the ability to use magic, so losing that would be devastating.
  
• Not living up to the impossible standards she sets for herself - She has to be the best the first time she does something, no exceptions.
  
• Dying alone - Due to her rather abrasive personality, she fears alienating those around her.
