High Knight Thysia

Thysia Unima of House Unima-tanal is a High Knight in the New Order of Beowulf, and the House Designate to become the Duchess of Unima-tanal.
== Appearance and Personality ==
Thysia is described as a graceful woman with bluish black hair and silver eyes straying toward blue, traditionally found in armor befitting that of a High Knight, but occasionally can be see wearing Victorian style garb when not on duty. She is thinner than most humans and has for her species, a large bust. 
Holes in her legs eject magical energy used to achieve flight, and small blue plumage grows along the back of her arms, faint reminders of her species' avian ancestry. She possesses the ever so faint tint of blue in her skin, which is abnormally soft and smooth, her overall body has an unusual sensation when touched, as though liquid freely flows inside the otherwise solid being.
As Lafilia her body grows substantially larger and heavier, gaining the fey's former figure. Her hair becomes wilder and pure blue, her eyes a neon blue in hue, and she is noted to have a small tail and a series of fey-angel wings.
Thysia is quiet and graceful in personality, fair and just, she hears people out and tries to help them as much as she can. When others push toward a dangerous path, she does her best to sway them away from it. She doesn't have the best patience for the wicked and sadistic beings in the world, preferring to meet out justice than let them continue poisoning the air with ill words.
She doesn't like her status as the future Duchess to be known and actively keeps her more royal roots hidden from other members of the Order, she prefers to be humble and treat others equally. She hates the idea of invoking her station and would rather earn people's favor through work than privilege. 
== History ==
== Powers ==
=== Korteressian [Royal] Physiology ===
As a Korteressian Royal, she and her kin bare several distinct characteristics even from other Korteressians.
* Mana Propulsion - Flight
* Blunt Force Resistance
* Pressure Differential Resistance
* Shock Resistance/Absorption 
* Mana Propulsion - Lethal Kick
* Taloned Feet
=== Korter Lifeform Physiology ===
As a species from the planet Korter, her general biological family is evolutionarily distinct from many other lifeforms due to the unique environment of Korter.
* Mana Ingestion - Korter Lifeforms metabolize Mana and thus their physical makeup is heavily reliant on Arcane forces.
* Fragility - Korter lifeforms have developed physically weaker traits due to dependence on Mana to fuel their biological processes. They are physically weaker and more susceptible to physical trauma, easy prey for more traditional biological entities.
* Mana Pores - Unique biological adaptations that convert processed Mana into energy stored in organs lining their limbs. When released, the effect can very depending on specific species adaptations, but these systems have been traditionally used for movement.
* Non Newtonian Internal Structure - Korter Lifeforms have an unnatural defense mechanism from blunt forces and high energy piercing forces, their internal structure is largely liquid, aside from bone like structural supports and their internal organs. When stressed, the liquids thicken into a near solid state that stop otherwise fatal injuries. Slow, precise, methodical stabbing forces and blunt force that surpasses the shock absorbent nature of their bodies are the only easy way to injure Korter lifeforms. The strength of this material varies from species and from individuals.
* Atmospheric Mana Differential Vulnerability - Korter Lifeforms evolved on a mana rich planet, and few individuals seen migrating to lower density worlds function properly, unable to use their mana pores effectively. Humanoid class Korter Lifeforms are the most adaptive, but must be treated with care or extreme damage to their metabolism will occur in the adjustment phase of moving to new locales.

== Relationships ==
=== Leonera ===
A good trusted friend, Leonera is one of the only lower ranked members of the Order Thysia trusts with her secrets, even if she doesn't mention all of them. She cares for him greatly and from an early point in having met him, understood his character greater than their peers.
She doesn't regard him as anything but an equal and her role in the nobility doesn't skew her perception of him at all. They have long fought together in missions as they have a strong synch that is rarely matched, their styles compliment another. She likes him more than she would outwardly say, unusual for a Korteressian in that the species rarely finds races from outside Ker-Korter attractive. Yet in spite of this, her social rank, not to mention his, she could see a future with him, were it not for the troubles she keeps to herself.
=== Lafilia ===
Lafilia, being her souls' previous incarnation, lives within her and occasionally comes forth, her spirit molding her body to reflect the fae's when they switch. Thysia is more subdued than Lafilia, which can alarm people when she inexplicably becomes hyperactive and energetic, as the two can switch with little warning. They are in the process of learning from each other and for that reason show the other patience and respect.
Both halves are on good terms and don't mind each other, though Thysia is still getting used to hearing Lafilia's thoughts in her head, as well as having far more strength and energy reserves than before.
=== House Unima-Tanal ===
Thysia and the House are on poor terms, the House desperately trying to rein her in and install her as the new Duchess before her father passes away, and the King of the largest kingdom of Ker-Korter, Dagde Aber-tanal finds out about their feud.
The House operates on the notion that females should be religated to duties of old, such as looking after House affairs while men lead their armies into battle, something Thysia desperately rebels against, the female knights during the days of the Ker Race War leading their people a source of childhood inspiration to the Hight Knight.
Thysia ignores all attempts at communication and actively jams them. She worries if they find a way to reach her, from a distance or by direct means of confrontation.
=== New Order of Beowulf ===
Thysia learned of the order when she was many years younger, during an investigation of the world by the Order, due to the Erthsgard attempting to enslave the Ker and direct them against the Korter population. Inspired by childhood fantasies of being a female knight and longing to make reach change, and not become a political figurehead, she pledged herself to them and would not relent until she succeeded in earning her place with them.
She poured much of her heart into learning the way of the Order so that she might dispel notions of her being a whimsy driven heiress with no real understanding of the implications of joining such an organization, finding common ground with another recruit, Leonera, who faced more public skepticism from his 'divided' loyalties to the Order. 
She largely considers the Order to be her family and place in the world, and would only accept the name of Duchess of Unima-Tanal if she did not have to sacrifice her role with the Order.
=== Dagde Horer Aber-tanal ===
The King of Tanal, the largest kingdom of Korter. He is quite on good terms with Thysia, it was he who saw her early potential to be the heiress and originally pressured the Unima-Tanal family to groom her as such. He favors her more than her father and mother, to the point if friction rises between her and her family, he would swiftly move to impose Thysia replace them.
Thysia equally respects the King but fears what would happen between the people of Tanal and the Order should he find out the rift between Unima-Tanal and its heiress, and move to name her as Duchess. She does everything in her power to keep the tensions of Unima-Tanal from reaching Dagde's ear.
