Thread: [CS] Giselle Do'Urden

CHARACTER TEMPLATE Name- Giselle Daermon N'a'shezbaernon, thankfully rarely used. Normally just goes by Giselle Do'Urden. World- Originally from Toril, the Forgotten Realms. Will be going to Twilight. Species- Half Drow, half light elf. Age- 300. Still young by elven standards Gender- Female Sexuality- Bisexual Appearance- Considerably less evil looking. Personality- Despite being a Drow in appearance, Giselle is honorable and just and very passionate about things she enjoys or believes in strongly. She has never run from a fight, no matter the odds stacked against her, unless there was no other choice to be found in the matter. Even so, that has only happened twice. Regardless, she is a true friend if you can earn her hard earned trust, but a bit jaded to love after three bad breakups in the past. Even so, her heart hasn't changed as far as standing up for what is right and defending those that can't defend themselves. SkillsAbilities- Surviving in the wilds is second nature to her considering she's a ranger, just like her father before her. A master of the double scimitar style, she is also proficient when it comes to hand to hand fighting, using her almost supernatural agility, speed, and dexterity to full advantage. Giselle also has more than a few spells in her arsenal but she's nowhere near as powerful as her full mage brother, Seth. Because of her ranger training, animals warm to her almost immediately when she concentrates on them enough, establishing some would say a mental bond with them, but really it's a mutual understanding more than anything. Notable Strengths- Giselle is like most Drow in her abilities only. She's able to see in the darkest of shadows due to her dark vision, able to see in the infrared spectrum, and able to use the natural innate spells that come with being such a dark skinned creature of the Underdark. Able to drop globes of darkness upon command that NO level of sight enhancements or light can penetrate, able to light harmless faerie fire upon a target, making it easier to see and target, and while she can't do it like her kin, most Drow are able to levitate at will. Thankfully they have spells to do the same thing, and so much more is in her considerable arsenal thanks to training with some of the best and most powerful of wizards. She's extremely fast and agile, able to perform physical feats that a regular human couldn't hope to match Notable Weaknesses- However, her eyes are light sensitive, and while not to such a degree as her full blooded father, staring into a bright light for too long or a sudden flash will blind her and disorient her. Also, for those that know what her dark skin signifies, Drow like her are not welcome in most parts of any world. She has had to earn her place as an honorable warrior, and that had taken many years on Faerun since the dark elves have earned their reputation for being the most evil and hate filled people to have ever existed. History- Giselle Do'Urden is a chip off the old Do'Urden block, as Bruenor might say if asked. She is honorable, stoic, fast as greased lightning, and has a heart of gold that shines no matter the darkness. Still, she is fierce in battle and not one to ever give up, no matter the odds, much like a stubborn dwarven king she knows. Despite the color of her skin and the hardships it has brought in the past, the halfbred warrior of many battles already doesn't let it slow her down in her drive to see peace brought to any and all lands she visits if war is on the horizon or there are monsters that need slaying before they cause harm to untold innocents. Her beauty and grace as well as her deadly precision with a blade has earned Giselle the nickname Black Rose because much like a real rose, she has her own thorns that usually come in the form of her deadly whirling scimitar blades she received from her father a hundred and fifty years ago. Along with her two older brothers, by a year since they are twins, Giselle carves a name for herself, earning her own place in Toril's history as a heroine for the ages. As it has been said before, she's a chip off the old block. Equipment- Icingdeath and Twinkle were her father's blades until they were passed onto her when she was ready for them. Icingdeath can absorb fire of any shape or form but it should be noted that explosions themselves are not. The fire they generate are, but the force of the blast can't be as well as the shrapnel. Twinkle glows with the light of stars when danger is near at hand, and it has a much sharper edge than it first appears to possess. She also carries a magical figurine, capable of summoning a creature from the Astral Plane, a powerful and beautiful panther. Guenhwyvar has traveled with Drizzt for centuries, and now she travels with Giselle when she was passed from father to daughter. Goals Optional- Miscellaneous- Follower of Meilikki, goddess of the forests. Giselle also has a piercing in her bellybutton as well as her clit which she has kept secret from her entire family somehow all this time. Last edited by a moderator Sep 23, 2022
