Eyes: Blue Stature: Stunted, waif-like Horn: Spiral, silver; won't grow in until her second year Wings: Light blue roan fading to silver flights; a second black and teal, fist-sized pair on her chest Mane: Silver; fine, short and silky Tail: Leonine, average length; blue with short, silky silver hair at the tip Markings: White star. Blackening down each leg (roan face/not black); ten bird catcher spots across back Hooves: Black; cloven Noteworthy: Thick, excessive coat which hides emaciation; anorexia, brittle hooves; contracted tendons A conformational mix of many breeds, Eira should easily have been an equal, elegant and noble combination of both Kirottu and Cirrus. Given the best chance, she might have been compact, limber-looking and sporting a graceful frame. Her neck would have ached splendidly, longer over-top than down below, set relatively high between her muscular shoulders with her father’s silverly span of long, dense mane cascading down across the left side. The skull perched upon it could have been small and moderately convex (portraying likeness to faint Andalusian heritage), with kind and gentle features and lovely, inherited softness. Behind, the might have been padded, long and sloping, leading into a low set leonine tail of average length. Each of her legs should have been long, sinewy and slender, with hard black cloven hooves at their end. Instead, due to nutritional deficiency through the most critical, first year of her life, she developed symptoms of Developmental Orthopaedic Disease, which affected the young skeleton and her growth completely stopped; even in adulthood, she stands no taller than a small-scale yearling of like breeding. She is waif-like in appearance (almost ethereal), with anorexic tendencies, each exacerbated by lack of various minerals through infancy. Her light, blue roan coat grows excessively shaggy, and refuses to shed; it hides the emaciated frame beneath. No more than ten bird-catcher spots fleck the steep slopes aside her spine. The deprived bone structure in each blue wing will perhaps never support flight and though the silver flight feathers moult and grow properly, her habit is to barber them, well beyond repair. Insufficient protein has produced poor-quality hoof growth (brittle, uneven horn, black, cloven), and silver-coloured hair in both mane and (leonine) tail, which is uncharacteristically short and fine. On a light-blue head that appears too large, a silver, spiral horn will painfully grow (throughout her second year), in the centre of a small, white star. Too-thin legs appear wasted and the tendons are mildly contracted, yet she manages well enough to walk, less to trot, and seldom canter. |
Born with a condition called hyperthymesia, Eira can recall through association, almost every day of her life in near perfect detail as well as situations and events which hold personal significance to her. One memory triggers another, which in turn triggers another and she is powerless to stop it. When activated, the avalanche of recollections appear in vivid detail within her head (she ‘sees’ them, relives them), without hesitation or conscious effort. However, interestingly, she possesses a poorer than average memory for arbitrary or ordinary, information; the constant, irrepressible stream of memories causes her significant cognitive disruption and mental fatigue. Often she appears distracted or lost in deep thought and it can be difficult for her to attend to the present or future, as she feels perpetually trapped in the past. During infancy, her personality and temperament are a blank slate, unblemished and clean, and she will display many of the innocent characteristics of any other her age. A bright, imaginative (and uncluttered) mind will delight and build trust in the quieter aspects of the natural world - plants and flowers, butterflies - and she will spend hours contemplating the ever-shifting patterns in the sky; the latter, an interest fashioned during the first weeks beside her mother, Cirrus, who wore a weather-mirroring coat. A shier, more reserved streak will develop mere months into life as her condition provokes visions of times she thought were past; the child will withdraw from the things which trigger such memories and internalise her budding confusion - no other seems so affected, so strange. The return of Kaos and the murder of her parents, will inevitably leave a glaring scar in her mind and the bank of memories which revisit. The harrowing screams, death, despair and thundering, supernatural voice of the God of all gods, will linger in her thoughts for a long while, tormenting her sleep and robbing her quaint character of all willingness to speak, to move forward - an element of post-traumatic stress will ensue, but its effect should be temporary. Around the age of two, Eira will learn the cruel truth of pain and (to a lesser degree all things considered) suffering for herself. Constant headaches and burning, irritated skin upon her forehead will give birth, at last, to the silvery tip of a horn like that brandished by Kirottu, her father; this will continue to grow slowly and painfully throughout the year, cementing within her character a fear of infliction, suffering, and intense aversion toward both their cause and consequence. As an empath, Eira’s senses will seem highly-tuned and her nerves will be frayed by trivial concepts like noise, smells, or even excessive talking; crowds are bound to be overwhelming, amplifying an emotional response (triggering a barrage of memories), and thus she’ll grow shy, reserved, preferring one to one contact. An involuntary tendency to absorb deeply the good or bad feelings and emotions of those around her will progress, making her a vulnerable target for narcissistic personalities, victim-mentalities and other energy vampires. The natural world and the faith placed in its soothing effect, will serve to nourish and restore her, so often she will seek refuge (immerses herself), in the presence of wilder things - snow, trees or bodies of water - in the process, releasing burdens and refreshing her psyche. {to be developed} |
