STRENGTHS .
• Her stubbornness.
• Her inability to let others in.
• Her sense of humor - really, sometimes it can be really disarming!
• Her passion.
• Her insufferable loyalty once someone has earned it.
• Jade, like all werewolves is blessed with incredible strength, speed, endurance, agility and senses. However, she is lacking in strength in comparison to most other werewolves because of her size. She doesn't eat as much as she should, despite the fact that her stomach often urges her to. But, what she lacks in strength, she makes up for speed. Endurance is a bit dodgy with Jade as well. Depending on whether she's taking care of herself or not, she can go just as long as any other werewolf. Due to years of dancing she has spent a great deal of time developing her flexibility and agility. This almost never fluctuates, unless she has suffered rather intense wounds which are still currently healing.
• In her 'wolf form', Jade happens to be a bit of a runt. It more than likely has something to do with her small size in 'human form.' She is a red wolf with piercing yellow eyes. Her front paws are covered in thick red fur, while her back right paw is almost white. Jade hates her Wolf Form due to the fact that she sticks out from most other werewolves. She wishes that she would blend in easier... It would make tracking her down a great deal more difficult.
• Jade, while in her 'war form' is... well, down right intimidating. As if she would have it any other way. While in war form she is still a great deal smaller than most Werewolves, but that by no stretch of the imagination makes her weak. While in War Form, she all but loses complete control of herself, and her urges. She is (quite literally) a loose cannon, while in this form. Standing about six feet tall, and weighing a great deal more than she would care to admit, she's quite a fearsome creature. She keeps the same coloration as she does in her wolf form, while her eyes go back to the green that she wears in her human form. ( Jade's War Form -- Same colorization as in her Wolf Form. )
• Jade's weapon proficiency. Jade happens to be incredibly gifted with a set of blades. Seriously, give her a new blade and within five minutes she'll be cooing to the thing like she's known it all her life. Not just that, but she'll handle it as though it had been a part of her arm for as long as she had been alive.
WEAKNESSES .
[ - ] ... Like she's going to to tell you. Okay, now seriously, *ahem*
[ - ] A cheeseball - Really, she has a soft spot for people that say all of the cliche things at the right time. She'll never admit it, but she's a secret romantic.
[ - ] Bright eyes.
[ - ] Staying in one place for too long. (She has the tendency to run.)
[ - ] Following orders.
[ - ] Silver, fire, etc.
[ - ] Controlling her war form completely
[ - ] Getting over parts of her past.
QUIRKS .
[ + ] Whistling.
[ + ] Foot jiggling.
[ + ] Playing with her hair
[ + ] Joint popping
[ + ] "Indignant Cheek Puff"
[ + ] Shifting her weight from foot to foot.
[ + ] Not being able to look strangers in the eye.
TALENTS .
[ ♥ ] Dancing, although she has never let anyone in on that.
[ ♥ ] Her weapon proficiency. See strengths for more.
[ ♥ ] Her hand to hand combat skills - Her agility and flexibility make her rather difficult to fight with, seeing as how she almost does something completely unthought of. Sometimes, for the reaction of the person that she's sparring with... Sometimes, because it really will give her the upper hand.
[ ♥ ] Her loyalty (when she chooses to give it)
[ ♥ ] She has a mind designed to pick apart the weaknesses of others. This makes her especially useful when it comes to plotting out attacks.
[ ♥ ] All but photographic memory when it comes to places and faces.
DEITY . Nataz on some days, Rasha on others.
ITEMS . ( Hope you guys don't mind. I'm making her relatively weak in regards to her abilities so that she can be armed to her teeth. She feels a little naked without having blades everywhere. )
'Othelo', her straight blade • When Jade started training with weapons, she started to name them. After a while, she grew bored of conventional names and started to name her weapons after the Gods themselves. She truly didn't worship often... and it was safe to say that she worshipped her weaponry as opposed to any faceless deity. 'Othelo' was her first blade, named after the God of War, Battle and Duty. Being her first blade, purchased soon after leaving her life in France, it became her everything. Her protector, and the foreshadowing for her first real profession.
'Nataz' the Double Bladed Katar • When Jade first picked up the job of assassin, she knew that there were going to be many times that she was going to be forced to do a job that she didn't necessarily agree with. This blade, being the more merciful of killing devices was named after the Goddess of the Moon and Prophecy... The meaning is a personal one to her; one that she doesn't wish to get into. (The Katar that she uses is relatively similar, however, it's attached to a leather strap that goes around her wrist, securing it in place, the handles are not on the make that she has.)
'Rasha' the Three Bladed Katar • Just like her other Katar counterpart, this is named after one of the Goddess twins. It got it's name due to it's rather menacing appearance, and due to the nature of the twin.
'Shagh' the Bodice Dagger • This dagger may be small, but it aptly named. Shagh is the God of deception and lies. Well, and time, but Jade doesn't really care about that when the meaning is applied to weaponry. Despite the fact that she is small breasted, she hides the dagger rather well, hence how she got the idea to name the dagger after such a God.
'Xynore' the Thieving Dagger • This blade rests on her right thigh. The shape of the blade works perfectly for cutting change purses loose from unsuspecting belts. It was a rather apt name (to her), considering the purpose of the blade. Very rarely does she use it for anything but pocket picking. Then again, she generally has quite a few more weapons strapped to her for the purposes of her work.
Demascus Boot Daggers • The boot daggers? Well, they didn't need to be named after Gods. Why? Well, because Jade prefers to name the weapons that she is particularly fond of after the Gods... And while these blades are pretty, she does not like using them unless she absolutely has to. Initially, she purchased them due to their aesthetic beauty, and realized that they were rather decent blades. However, she wouldn't have spent as much money on them then if she knew what she did now. They are a part of her every day ensemble... And well, she's slightly attached.
'Lona' the Vanity Dagger • Did I not mention that Jade has an obsession with her hair? Well, she loves it so much, she has a dagger specifically designated to her hair that is named after the Goddess of beauty and love. This specific dagger isn't one that she uses often. There have been a few times when she has been put in a position where she needed to seduce her target before 'taking 'em out' that it has come in handy.
Her 'Candy Ring' • Jade holds onto very few things from her past life. This little nicknack from her mother on the other hand has a bit of a family story to it. When she left, she took the ring with her. Ever since it has become one of her most coveted possessions... Let's put it to you this way... Jade would sooner part with a weapon than this ring of assassins... And if she were to somehow lose it, where would she store poisons that she needed to access relatively quickly? Nope. She needs the ring. It's a work affiliated item.
A Pendant of her Namesake • The pendent rests on a silver chain, fashioned similar to a chain like this. There is another piece of Jade holding the two strands of silver together. Jade refuses to speak on the sentimental value of her necklace, but she never takes it off. In fact, if someone comes to close to it, she threatens to disembowel them in quite vivid ways. Needless to say, this is a very personal piece to her. Perhaps, more personal than the 'Candy Ring'.
A Stolen Flask • This leather flask has a picture of a wolf on the front of it. This was something stolen by Jade quite some time ago. It was a Sorcerer's flask designed to never run out of whatever you put out in it. The only problem is that she can't figure out how to put anything but alcohol into the blasted thing. So, when her flask of water tends to run out... She'll start walking a touch crooked. XD
Random Possessions • Clothes (mostly skimpy; she doesn't like wearing too much. However, she does possess some 'warm' clothes, more often than not, preferring not to switch to her Wolf Form for the sake of heat), poisons, general all purpose poultices, healing herbs, munchies (to remind herself to eat; more often than not she would be chewing on a sprig of mint), a flask (for water - can't live off of alcohol sadly), weapon sharpening supplies, a sewing kit and an almost-always-rather-full coin purse. Oh, and her hair brush. She never goes anywhere without that.
