Full Name: Andra Jennifer O-Reilly
Nickname: none
Gender: female
Race: Helki Shapeshifter
Age: appears 21yrs old, but is actually much, much older. She doesn't know it, but she's about 5 centuries old
Appearance: albino (also see picture above)
Eyes: always remain the same colour which is dark ocean blue with a ring of red in them.
Special Abilities: She can shapeshift into anything she pleases, except for reptiles(see personality). Also, the word 'helki' means touch, so she has to have met and touched a creature before she can shapeshift into them. However, anything she shifts into, her hair colour remains the same, because with being albino, her DNA does not recognize what other hair colours are, or what even makes a colour for hair.
Magic Ability: She has followed her father's footsteps, and has trained in the dark arts, but she's still practicing on some of the spells.
Family: One twin sister, who is also albino and a shapeshifter, named Angela Jessica O-Reilly. Her father's name is Hannibal O-Reilly, but she has written a death sentence for him. Her mother's name is Allison O-Reilly, but is nowhere to be found. Word has it that Andra had murdered her as well, but nobody knows for sure.
Personality:
Very independant and stubborn, she never accepts help. She wouldn't care if she didn't have good odds. If it was something she had to do, she would do them herself. At first greeting, she is usually rude and unwelcoming to others, but she has a sick habit actually killing those that are rude to her, but only if she knows she could kill them with ease. She doesn't like challenges, so she gets very angry when she can't get something done almost right away. She has a phobia for dragons, and most other large reptiles, because dragons are not vulnerable to magic... or, that's what she has come to believe. She hates all males, and treats them like the omega wolf in a pack.
History:
She grew up with her sister in a very small, but cozy home. The whereabouts of where they grew up is unknown, but they do remember that they were raised by both parents until age ten, then when their father left, it was just them and their mother.
Their father had chosen Andra as his favourite, mainly because she never dared to shed a tear. He had forced Andra to watch him torture and beat up her mother, burning it into her mind that all women were weak, that Andra was meant to start a new tradition, or a new stereotype, if you will. Her eyes appeared noticably darker than Angela's, and she ended up having a very controlling nature.
Andra actually started beating up her sister after their father had left, which then their mother tried to remind her that Hannibal was just a bad man, but it was much too late. Andra beat up any other girl that seemed weak, shy, or unwilling to talk just because of her reputation. It was only after she murdered her mother that people really started taking notice. She was put into the strongest jail known, and held there until they believed that she had learned her lesson. However, she had only pretended to have learned her lesson, and moved far, far away once she got out.
That's when she moved to the same vicinity as Avaren. She managed to build herself a castle, making others do all the work for her. Of course, she had done all of them favours so that she wouldn't have to pay them anything. She made sure it was built on a land that nobody else owned so that she wouldn't have to worry about property payments or people bothering her. It wasn't too long after the castle was built and decorated that people started to go missing. By then, she had the magical ability to stop people from entering her castle. So long as she stayed in her castle, nobody could capture her. The thing was, anybody who tried capturing her, she welcomed into her castle, but ended up murdering them.
The village she was taking from had ended up all moving somewhere else, so now she's come into Avaren. Perhaps here, she could finally become wealthy. She never entered a village in her human form, but this one seemed rather busy, so she gathered a dress and cloak, and travelled in for the first time, after dark.
