1.) What does your character's eye, skin, and hair color tell about him/her?
Her light skin and hair speak to having Caucasian descent, though I'm not sure what they call it in Lacaedonia. Her eyes, however, are much more interesting. The colors contained within her iris reveal the shades of her energy.
2.) What does your character's hairstyle tell about him/her?
Her hairstyle is one that I like to call a fan bun, but I'm not sure it actually has a name. (Basically, she starts out with a ponytail and on the last wrap of the elastic sh twist the tale around its base before wrapping the remaining loop over all of it and letting the ends of her hair fan out). This demonstrates her desire for practicality and discipline, but the free ends show an element of a free spirit as well.
3.) What does your character's default outfit tell about him/her?
Kali is most often found in her school uniform, which consists of a fitted tee emblazoned with the Academy crest over the heart, camouflaged cargo pants, and knee-high brown side-lacing boots. To an average citizen of Lacaedonia, this indicates that she is a member of one of the most prestigious military schools in the country, known for its production of top-tier energy-wielding combatants.
4.) Does he/she have an object(s) he/she carries around a lot?
Well, she's pretty much always wearing her wristcomm, which gives her alerts and acts as a verbal and textual communication device, and also acts as a locator should she disappear. Beyond that, and two knives that are usually in her belt and her boot when she's in the field, she doesn't really carry around anything like that. At least not that's she's told me. >_<
5.) Does he/she have any particular scars or birthmarks?
Not at the beginning of the story, and the rest is still in flux, so we'll see.
6.) Does he/she have any piercings or tattoos?
Nah. Not that I know of. She'd be allowed to, to an extent, but that's not really her thing.
7.) How does he/she carry themselves? Shoulders back? Eye contact? Eyes down? Slumped shoulders?
She walks confidently, with back straight, and head high. It's that military posture, you know. But in all seriousness, she has every right to be confident, and she isn't one to hide that through abd posture or an ambling gait.
8.) What is his/her default expression? Smiling? Frowning? Solemn?
Kali's default expression is one of pleasant watchfulness. She takes in all the information available to her, but does so while maintaining an appearance of polite interest and friendliness.
9.) Does he/she wear make-up or face paint?
Not usually. That isn't really her thing either; it takes too much time. The exceptions to that general rule are as follows: during field exercises, she may well utilize camouflage face paint to disguise her pale skin, and at formal occasions she proves that she does indeed know how to work the smoky eye look (among others).
10.) Does his/her physical appearance change at any time? For example: If they have a power do their eyes glow or hair turn blue?
Yes! Ironically enough, her eyes do glow slightly when she uses her power. It is barely detectable, though -- more of a faint shimmering. Aside from that the only time her physical appearance would change is if she ever had to go undercover for an assignment, or if she lost an arm or something.
Well, that's that. Thanks for reading, and thanks to Victoria for hosting this awesome link-up! Fare thee well, everyone!
