Instructions

✰ press space to see with and without her little net thing ✰ This character was made for the purpose of The Vast Sea RP, I finally found some new rps! I love rp studios so much and I love creating characters and backstories and I use rps as little prompts. I want to make a full piece for her, but here’s a quick little ref sheet that I can use for artfight. ✰ Bio: Ellis (Ell) 18 She/they Design notes: - Burn on the right side of her body - bright blue/silver eyes and freckles - Her hair is frayed at the ends - eel tail Backstory: When she was little, Ell was caught in a fishing net with her older brother. When the pirates found out they caught two mers, they threw a torch on the net to terminate them. Her brother thew himself on top of her, and took most of the fire as he yelled for her to escape threw the newly burned hole in the net that was just big enough for her. She slipped out, and dove into the water below, sustaining a burn on half her body. Her brother was killed, and because of this she has spent every day sense training and discovering more about the humans in order to avenge her brother’s death. Personality: Clever and cunning Adventurous Collects human artifacts to use against them Determined to get revenge Untrusting and a loner Really terrible at talking to people Strengths and weaknesses: Quick swimmer, and able to curl up and hide easily in many places. She’s also very skilled at making things out of scraps. She’s very mistrustful which makes her really terrible at talking. This causes most other people to instantly not like her, and not want to help her. To go with the eel theme, she also produces electrical charges. However they’re only strong enough to stun small fish and would be like a static electric shock to a mer or pirate. This is a weakness, because she can’t control when she uses it and it mostly happens when she’s angry. This also leads to her shocking herself by accidentally touching conductive objects when she’s charged (hence the frayed hair). She also gets a tunnel vision when it comes to her revenge, and can often lead to her sacrificing important things Just to get what she wants. Her last weakness is that her right side has a slower reaction time because of the burned nerves. She can’t hear as well out of her right ear, and is left handed as a result.
