Elemental RP Bio: Rowan
Name: Rowan Rockford
Age: 18 bonded years, 100 Free range spirte
Gender: Female
Race: Tree Nypmh
Appearance: Rowan, being what she is, appears all green at a distance. Up close, details emerge. Her skin is a light teal color, whereas her waist-length wavy hair contains a darker tint to it. Her eyes are a shade of emerald green that matches the form-fitting shift she normally wears. The shift is cut low in the front and back and falls to just above her knees in soft layers. A light blue sash tied around her waist doubles as a belt and a place to hide small goods, like a pouch containing charms and shiny objects that she collects. She wears soft leather tongs that string up to mid calf that matches the color of her shift. A dark green vine grows from her shoulder blade and twines about her right arm,ending at the first knuckle of her middle finger. the Vine changes colors with the seasons and blooms and wilts according to Rowan's energy levels.
Personality: Rowan is a seclusive young woman. Though she has lived for a long while, most of her life had been as a free sprite. She did anything she wanted, whenever she wanted, without much thought or care. She rarely remembered the events of one day as the next day approached and was naive to everything in the world. It was like living each day repeatedly as a child. It wasn't until she was honored with her bonding to a sapling tree that she became more subdued and questioned her surroundings more. She cared about everyone and everything and worked hard to make her home a better place. She's not an acustomed fighter, but it does not mean she would back out of one when the situation called for it.
Occupation: Tree-Hugger, Student
Weapon: Rowan carries a small metal dagger forged by her fire cousins in celebration of her acceptance into the Temple of Gaia's Past. She is also apt at firing bows and arrows, but does not carry one around with her.
Magic: The vine that grows from Rowans arm can produce toxic gases, liquid poisons/liquid poison-filled bulbs, edible berries, healing leaves, and grow or shrink to any size. Energy used is correlated to magical effect gained. Rowan can also do many things nymphs typically do, such as converse with flora and fauna(only some wildlife), merge physically with trees, and so forth.

Recently, Rowan has also developed some magic concerning water elements, such as bringing water forth from the air, ground, or river and manipulating it. These she cannot control at will, meaning she can't activate her ability or stop it when it occurs.
Bio: After the ceremony that bonded Rowan with a sapling tree, Rowan thrived in the Aradian Glades. As her bonded tree grew in strength and intelligence, so did Rowan. She matured with her bonded and immersed herself in her community, getting to know the other forest nymphs that were her cousins and her immediate kin. There were sprites that become bonded with water elements to become the tree nymphs, those that bonded with fire elements, and even some with the air itself. Each varied greatly across elements and even more among themselves. There were tree nymphs for different types of trees, bushes, and even weeds, though those nymphs were constantly reverted back to their sprite-selves when their bondeds passed.

Rowan enjoyed her peaceful life, occasionally chasing away those that wished her Glades harm. It wasn't until odd things begin occuring that Rowan became worried about her livelihood. First, an itch on her shoulder blade sprouted a vine that she was able to control. She tested out the limits of the vine and worked studiously with her kin to fingure out abilities and weaknesses that the vine held. She found that soon she was able to control the growth of greenery around her more than usual, and control it at a larger scale than any kin before her. She found out about her water abilities during a particular dought in the Glades. she wished for water for her dying tree, when a flood of water came pouring down the slopes from a river far away. She was unable to stop the flood, and though it did save her area of the forest, it greatly harmed the part of the forest further down and where it traveled to get to her tree. Even to this day, the river makes an unnatural curve out of the way to pass by her tree before turning back to its main course. Not even her water cousins were able to fix that misshap.

Other small mistakes and misuse of powers appeared gradually before the inhabitants of the Glades voted to send Rowan to school and learn more about her powers. Not many of the Glades ever left, but they all felt that it was the best thing for Rowan to do. And it would help her in ways they could not. She was free to return after she mastered her new powers and could use them to help, not hurt, their Glades.

And so Rowan left on her journey, packed with everything her kin thought she'd need, and ventured out to join the Temple of Gaia's Past to master her earth powers, before learning to master her water powers later.
Element: Earth, Water
Clan: Temple of Gaia's Past

Character Name: Galexi "Lexi" Da'Lione of the Volez Clan
Age: 24
Gender: Female
------------------------
Position: Quartermaster
Weapons: Primary weapon: Kundige crafted laser pistol. Lexi prides herself on testing out new alien and human technology - especially weaponry and can be found experimenting with a wide array of arsenals.
Equipment:
Light-weight Kazgur-type backpack
Alien technology, can hold a vast amont of objects, despite its small size, and can decrease the weight of objects it holds by 25% through gravity modifications. If overstuffed or overloaded, Kazgur packs are susceptible to explosion.
Gadgetry
Lexi carries a handheld device that lists supplies, biographies of ship staff to which she adds her own notations, available resources, best places to raid for which items, etc, despite having all of it memorized. Lexi has debated on another implant to allevate the need for such a device, but worries that her body will not be able to support another modification.
Implants: She has had several compartments installed in various parts of her body, removing unnecessary organs when the need arose, so that she could house stolen items or other items of use (such as lock-picks, medical kits,etc). The implants are mostly organic to avoid detection and, because of this, are highly susceptible to infection. Lexi must take a hoard of supplements before each ground departure, plus injections at the site of the compartments, to avoid illness and infection.
------------------------
Personality: Lexi is a carefree and outspoken person. She has a meticulous memory and an eye for detail, despite her apparent carefree nature. She is prone to be erractic and spontaneous, which has led to her myriad of problems. Though her personal life is anything but organized and tidy, she fills her position in the exact opposite manner.
Biography: It is no secret that Lexi has one of the most troublesome past of those aboard the ship. Her family clan had been notorious for their pirating crimes of the outer sectors of space for many decardes and had brazenly begun to weave a path of destruction through the center areas of the capitol before they were caught and eventually executed save for an elect few who escaped capture. They specialized in loot of all kinds - from food to weaponry. Lexi is proud of her heritage and deeds she's participated in. She is willing to announce her patronage to anyone who will listen, to the dismay of her crewmates. Lexi is always interested in the newest trends, newest gears and weaponry, and new intel on anyone or anything - which she always remembers and this makes her highly valuable to the crew, besides being just the quartermaster.
Other Intel: Despite her boasts of her family clan, Lexi does not want to be caught. She usually alters her appearence before landing in the same port twice. She is also very interested in anything Alien and well versed in the history and knowledge of other intergalatic creatures. She has limited knowledge about her species own history, including the stories and lineage of Earth.
