Ophidia

"Have a great day!" Appearance Ophidia is a small human woman of about 160cm (5’ 3”), with dark black hair. She’s young, looking to be either in her late teens or early twenties. She has very light skin but with a fair amount of dark freckles in her cheeks breaking up the effect. She usually wears dark clothing and makeup, making her bright blue eyes often the only spot of color popping out at the viewer. This effect is magnified by her round eyeglasses with thick black plastic frames. Plot Hooks Musician Ophidia is her stage name, she plays guitar and plays for small time bands in Denver, mostly in the Aurora area so far. She also does magical visual effects for live performances and some technical support on the side. Not a lead singer or frontwoman type, but she's like a support wizard for small time musical acts. Rookie Ophidia is new to the shadow scene (as of Dec 2084), trying to branch out from music work which does not pay the bills well to shadow work, which she hopes will without killing her. She's a Witch! Ophidia is a shamaness following Snake, and isn't too shy or secretive about it. She uses illusions to enhance musical performances, knows some utility spells to help with some mundane tasks. She's even helped people with healing magic when needed. All unlicensed of course, coming from the warrens. + Show Secret Plot Hooks Secret Plot Hooks Missing Mother Ophidia learned her flavor of what she refers to as witchcraft from her mother, who was a cat shaman. Her mother disappeared in 2082 without a trace that Ophidia could find, although there were signs of a struggle and their squat was trashed. She's been busy trying to survive since then, but still wants to know what happened. Background + Show Background Background [[collapsible show="+ Show Background" hide="- Hide Background"]] Cassandra is a Denver local, born and raised SINless in Aurora. Her mother Abigail was a witch in the form of a cat shaman, and the fruit did not fall far from the tree. Cassie was able to see things that weren’t there in the physical world from a young age. Able to see the same things, Abby started teaching her early on. The totem that Cassie was drawn too didn’t get along perfectly with her mothers, but it worked out fine in the way that a good family can. That chapter ended a couple of years ago in 2082, when Cassie returned home and found her home squat trashed and no sign of her mother. She still doesn’t know what happened, but she’s been on her own since then. Cassie is a small and short young woman, at about 160 cm tall and 21 years of age. She’s what you would call a goth in fashion and musical tastes. She wears black, loves to both listen to and play moody music, and is blessed with naturally dark black hair to fit the theme. Even so, she’s generally cheerful and upbeat under the monochromatic appearance, despite the standard set of assumptions. She also has a problem with being painfully shy for someone trying to make a living on stage. She’s fine when putting on a show, but dealing with more personal attention is a lot harder for her. These days Cassie has been making her living as a musician under the stage name of Ophidia, which means poorly. She’s got a lot of magical talent and training, but it’s a hard thing to turn directly into NuYen. She’s trying to figure that out now, looking to the shadows and seeing if she can get ahead that way without getting herself into too much trouble in the process. Her spells are mostly of the type for entertaining or doing small tasks, she’s not ready for a life of violence. She doesn’t even want that life, really. She really doesn’t like people getting hurt at all in general. But at the rate things are going she’ll be homeless and have to sell her guitar if things keep going downhill the way they are, so needs are maybe going to have to outweigh wants if she wants to keep herself under a roof. So with the connections of a few people from around Aurora, a fresh fake SIN, more magical talent than real marketable skills, and a lot of hope, Ophidia is heading for the shadows to make her fortune. At least a little one? And without a lot of firefights, spirits willing. Outfits And Style Dressed for the stage in a goth dress. On the town in a gothy dress. Just your average casual leather pants and crop top. Jeans and jacket. Some of her clothes are Tres Chic. Staying comfy at home. Skully t-shirt. Relaxed in shorts. Colors other than black? It happens. Even brighter colors sometimes.
