Juvell

Juvell , also known as one of the Nymphs of Anax, and Juvell Ursorif, is a prominent character in Neon Millenium. She is the "late" wife of the High King of Alanatasia, Edric Ursorif, the former leader of the priestesses to Anaxul on Dominus, and the biological mother to Itseka Hayami. Sometime after the War for Arth, she was cursed to become a dragon and roamed the planet, only being returned to her original form by Rao Tzusukon, a former priestess of the Kumaic Order. Originally an antagonist, once Dominus was restored, she became the high priestess to Anaxul's temple once more and became a supporting character. She is also one of the four Kings of Yore in The Brood. 
== Appearance ==
In her original form, Juvell is a short hemera woman with semi long black hair which reaches around her armpits, with parts of her hair braided to the back of her head with a ceremonial pin holding the braids together. Her skin is a pale color, and her eyes are a gem-like magenta color which tend to glow when she uses magic. For attire, she usually wears a traditional priestess of Anaxul garb and a circlet on her head, with white gloves and ivory-colored jackboots adorned with pearlescent decals, which reach to her knees. 
Juvell is described to be incredibly beautiful, almost to the point where it could be believed that her beauty could drive people to madness, or on a less extreme note, keep them awestruck. Even in older age, she looks a lot younger than she is, which is described to be a result of immortality after becoming a dragon. 
As the queen consort of the Ursorif dynasty, she wore traditionally Alanatasian clothes, especially a lot of fur coats, cloaks, and generally cold-climate oriented outfits, although her signature circlet remained with her in these outfits.
In her nymph form, Juvell is much taller, with a more elaborate priestess garb and longer hair. Her outfit is a pale blue and gold form fitting, flowing dress decorated with trailing ribbons on her waist as well as wrapping around her arms like a shawl. On occasions, she wore a flowing cloak with hood that could obscure her face.
In her dragon form, Juvell was a large black dragon, similar in color to Anaxul, with round scales that covered her entire body, with a slightly lighter underbelly. Some scales, in a similar range of colors to her eyes, were littered around her body in a marking-like fashion, especially on her face in a feather-like fashion. She also possessed a long, fire-like mane of hair which extended from the top of her head to around her neck and chest, like a fur stole which was also magenta in color, although a bit lighter and gradient. On her forehead, she had a unicorn-like horn, although similar to Jewel's dragon form, it was diamond shaped and curved slightly backwards, like the horn of a goat.
== Personality ==
As a priestess, Juvell was very kind and responsible, as well as being incredibly dedicated to serving as a priestess to help satiate Anaxul's hunger with her own magic, making her also a very hardy individual. While staying out of the War for Arth, Juvell expressed similar ideals to Kumari in that she wished for equality among all races, as well as the idea of her species possessing magic, as she was one of the lucky few chosen by Kumari to possess magic, although she was forbidden to leave Dominus as a result, like many of her other fellow hemera priestesses. Like Kumari, Juvell also wished to love humans, even breaking her oath to never leave Dominus to meet with an unknown male, eventually becoming pregnant with his child. 
After being cursed to be a dragon, Juvell became angry, cold-hearted, and even her once maternal nature had ceased due to her being in an unfamiliar and unenjoyable form. Once returned to normal by Rao Tzusukon, she immediately birthed the child she held in her, which was Itseka Hayami, and abandoned the child in a random village. After another few years back in her original form, she softened and even regained her once kind nature and maternal instincts. 
When married to Edric Ursorif, she was described to be kind, gentle, and an excellent mother and wife, although somewhat feared by her subjects due to her immense magic power. While as queen consort, Juvell championed for equality in Alanatasia and wished for all races in her kingdom to be treated equally. She also seemed to possess a manipulative and cunning nature to her, as despite the political climate her husband had grown up she somehow managed to convince him of such radical political changes, which made her known as someone who could "melt the heart of a Ursorif", displaying she used her negative traits for good. 
However, Juvell also seems to possess a sense that many things she does do not possess consequences or seems to not care about such implications. When revealed that she faked her death in order to incite a war against extremists in Alanatasia who opposed the radical political change, she did not anticipate or even think of the magnitude her husband would go against a supposed assassination of his beloved wife, and even claimed she did not care that potentially innocent lives were taken, showing she retained a cold and practical nature to her even after she was cured of her curse. Despite her moments of cruelty, Juvell in rare occasions will act kind and motherly, such as when she shot and killed one of her lackeys, Uruu, for harming Incu, because he was a child.
== History ==
Born in an unknown place, and an unknown birthdate, Juvell lived as a hemera in a small group of villagers. Living as a normal hemera for a few years of her life, she was suddenly met with a strange figure in her dreams. The figure asked her if she would want to possess magic, and naive and young, she greedily accepted before she was whisked away, never to be seen again by her family or friends. 
Once she awoke, she was in Dominus, and for a while, she became used to the new place, before beginning her training as a nymph. Eventually, when she came of age, it was revealed that she was one of the most magically potent individuals their leader, Kumari, had ever seen, and eventually she was to take the role as the leader of the Nymphs and feed Anaxul their magic to prevent destruction.
