Your Name: Zel

Character Name: Hermoine Raye

Race: Human/ Magick User Witch level

Petition for Address: I havent a clue but was hoping to put her somewhere
nice and gothic with a huge cellar (obviously) So seeing as the map has gone
walkiesplease just shove her anywhere but bear in mind shes got some
pretty damn weird tastes.

Family Members: As far as family goes, most of her relatives are dead
because she either killed them or outlived them naturally. (Though unknown
to her she has a son somewhere still alive.)

Friends Names: Hermoine keeps a low profile and does not have many friends,
after all why have friends when you can have business partners.

Social Class/Alignment (i.e. Neutral, Light, Dark, Chaotic or combination):
Class: Well off.
Alignment: Dark, darker, darkening, darker still. (Err dark then eh?)

Occupation(including career goals (if changing), skills and employer):

Hermoine is self employed as a stock dealer (the stock is slavery, but shes
not letting on till later so pretend that you havent seen this) Her goals
are to become established in Eldhin within the boundaries of her trade. Her
skills would be everything within the lines of handling livestock.


Sense of Humor: Evil. Well shes got quite a dark sense of humour

Tastes in food, drink and clothing:
Food: Anything that is healthy and restores the natural balance of the
body. Shes got to take care of herself after all shes coming up to One
hundred and Two

Drink: Water and only water, after all anything else interferes with the
bodies system and the flow of energy doesnt it? She isnt the kind of
person who would go out and get drunk of her own free will, but you never
knowit might happen yet!

Clothing: Her tastes are different and make her come across as quaintly
eccentric. She has a tendancy toward long velvet skirts and white lace
blouses, the whole look makes her appear as though shes just stepped out of
an Edwardian Period dramawhich basically means she is wearing the fashion
of her youth.


Fears or phobias: She worries a lot about people realising how old she is
and starting to ask awkward questions. She looks to be in her early forties
through devious means of magical manipulation. Her one greatest phobia is
death, mainly because hes been stalking her for years now and she simply
refuses to acknowledge that hes there.

Philosophy of Life (in a phrase): If you fear it conquer it.

Date & Place of Birth(include human birth and turning rebirth if
applicable): Britain. Her birth date is November 5th 1900.

Physical Description(include Height,Weight,Health,Physical
Condition,Distinguishing Marks and Ethnic Origin): Slim to the point of
being anorexic Hermoine weighs very little and is in extremely good physical
condition for her age. Her health is very good and she isnt prone to
infection or illness yet makes a swift recovery whenever she is ill. She
has nut brown hair with a streak of silver at the front, this she views as a
necessary placation to the ageing process which she is still defying.
Normally her hair is worn up and scraped from her face to reveal a pair of
simply enormous ears. Her eyes are a muddy grey blue and a little too
closely set for her to appear as trustworthy as shed like you to believe.
The rest of her features are pinched and rather old maid-ish. There is
something distinctly unpleasant and waspish about this woman. Her one
distinguishing mark is a scar that runs from her right temple all the way
down to her chin, this is where things got a little out of hand one day when
she was raising demons. The demon went home crying for its Mom. Hermoine
had only smiled at it in what she considered a reasonable fashion.

Strength & Weakness(*PLEASE see the website for listed strengths and
weaknesses and restrictions*): (any strengths that a character (human or
elven) had (within reason) remain after turning)


Strengths: The ability to make people do as she wants by being
reasonable. How could they possibly refuse her when shes being so
reasonable? Shes pretty good with psychology and has an aptitude for
knowing and exploiting the weaknesses of others before they realise that
shes doing it. Hermoine doesnt have a conscience claiming to have lost it
a long time ago when she moved to Eldhin. She is something of a psychic
vampire as in as much as when people come near her they go away feeling
absolutely drained and screwed over. Hermoine has been a practising witch
with a specialism in fire for the past umpteen years and is very adept at
what she does. Hence some of her miraculous anti ageing techniques involving
the vitality of some of those that are unfortunate enough to make a deal
with her. She's also minoring in air...
Rumour tends to protect her more than anything physical and she encourages
it greatly.


Weakness: Shes human after all, so shes susceptible to things such as
beheading, stabbing, shooting, illnessoh and death. Her condition (being
human) is something that is ever destined to get in her way, until she comes
across an alternative. (Believe me shes looking she just hasnt found
anyone with the balls to bite her!) Her utter lack of conscience is a bit
of a weakness in as much as she fails to see that shes done anything wrong.
Shes a total sociopath, understanding but never interacting with humanity
as though she genuinely belongs to it.

Brief History:

At the age of five Hermoine watched her father die of a wasting illness and
found it truly fascinating, until then shed only ever gained true enjoyment
torturing the family pet. Shed always felt apart from humanity and
believed herself better than it. Now shes convinced that she is for shes
not shown any of the weaknesses that the rest of her line have. Her Uncle
having noticed that she was a somewhat unusual child took her to one side
and started to teach her the ancient arts of magic, half of which were
forgotten by those flocking to the spiritualist movement and the age of
enlightenment. What Hermoine learned was truly of the dark ages and
accredited to her sort through the many medieval woodcuts that she
constantly is on the look out for to build up her collection. Most of what
these woodcuts claim are said to be falsehoods thought up by the church.
However Hermoine knows that they were not, they were warnings thought up by
the church and if I dont stop now Im going to lapse into alternate history

When her uncle had taught her everything that he thought he knew, she
skinned him, made her robes out of him and found out a whole lot more than
she ever thought shed would, including in his last dying moments how to
cheat death and delay the ageing process. (needless to say it wasnt
investing in a good moisturiser.)

All of this lead to her trade which has kept her in good stead for years.
Though slavery was abolished a while back, she has carried on, on a supply
and demand level, often sending out squads of lackeys to pull people off the
street and introduce them to a new careeroddly enough without any prospects
of a pay rise or decent future.

Her goal in life is to gain the secret of immortality and having watched
Harry Potter is certain that its not contained in a chunk of rock, that
would be too simple wouldnt it? The only thing that has changed for
Hermoine is her move to Eldhin, which was sort of forced when local factions
learned of what she was up to and quite unreasonably (she thought) came to
arrest her. Needless to say she moved as though hell was on her tailwhich
it has been ever since she decided that her path in life was not to work for
her fellow man but to work with him.

At the moment shes currently exploiting the fears of elves and vampire
alike and will continue to do so for as long as possible. She holds no
particular fear of going to jail for after all shes one hundred and
twowhos going to jail a little old lady like her? (whos she kidding!!!)
