Description This is a reference sheet for
*This is the new and improved reference sheet. It contains new pictures and info regarding both Heather and her ablilities. Hope it helps make things a little more clearer.

Info:
Name: Heather Lumley (< She can't actually remember her surname though.)
Species: Human... Undead (Magical Curse)
Age: ?? (She can't remember her real age anymore.)
Likes: Cats, Books and not much else.
(It would seem cats like to be around Heather as well. Its like they instinctively trust her. Even before she was dead she had this effect on them. She has never worked out why though)
Dislikes: Witches, Dogs and incredibly happy, energetic people.

Personality:
Very cynical, sarcastic and awkward among strangers. Shes not really afraid of anything so doesn't mind provoking or upsetting other people. All in all she's a bit of a 'bitch' when it comes to social situations. Although when it comes down to it her natural instincts seem to lean towards acts of kindness. Shes not a bad person at heart ( har har ) She's just not used to being with others. So sad~

Heather doesn't have a problem being around strange creatures infact she's quite used to it. Other Undead things though hit a nerve with her. She doesn't see the reason why anyone would want to or enjoy being undead. The hate list includes Vampires, Werewolfs and other zombie.

She does not eat brains or bite people. She is not a zombie. She is Undead. There is a difference >3

Fighting Style:
Heather actually doesn't care much for fighting and combat the problem is though her daily 'unlife' always seem to lead her into these sorts of situations. Heather fights quickly and relentlessly. Her goal is to win the battle quickly because the longer the fight goes on for the more chance either her magic will run out or her body will become to damaged to continue. She sort of zones out during combat, being unable to feel anything helps her achieve this but this can sometimes have a negative effect on her and she ends up not paying full attention to her surroundings.


Abilities:
First off and the most obvious abilities she has are all related to being Undead. She feels no pain and does not bleed when cut. (Theres very little blood left inside her). The curse afflicting her is actually magical in origin but if her body is too badly damaged she will no longer be able to keep her soul attached to it. (In the event of her body being destroyed she will have to look for another suitable corpse or skeleton and take over it as her new body. I don't want to have her use this ability in fights though so theres no need to worry about it in the tournament.)

Magical abilities.
Now for the interesting stuff. The curse placed upon her was a particularly powerful one so powerful in fact that it actually leaks out excess magical energy. Heather has recently been able to tap into this excess magic and has learn a few spells to use in various circumstances. (Not that she needs them but it was something to pass the time which she has a lot of)

Spell List:

Vein Bind- Not a particularly powerful move but Heather can manipulate her own veins and tie things up with them. She normally just uses it as a quick fix for severed limbs though.

Dark Matter- The Undead curse that is afflicting Heather is actually composed of a substance called dark matter. It is used mainly by Necromancers, Witches and Warlocks when they need to summon demons and black magic. It's made of souls, pure evil souls that have been crushed and compressed together. It is incredibly cold to the touch and has an electric-like appearance By using the right magic words or spells it can be morphed and manipulated to suit the casters needs. Heather only knows a few spells and most of them are simple shape changing ones.

-She can throw Dark Matter Balls that explode on impact. These Dark Balls can be guided and controlled to some extent before exploding. They can also be detonated in mid-air.

-She can create spikes out of any surface to impale her enemies. These spikes appear as a dark trail that can travel along any surface. Heather can then unleash the spikes when she feels the time is right.

-She can create a shield which will block most attacks. This shield cannot be sustained for very long. It can also be thrown before deploying.

Over use of her magic will slowly drain her. She will become heavier as she loses control of her body and eventually she will be forced out of her body into spirit form.

Strengths:
Doesn't breath or feel pain. Can push her body to the extreme and beyond. Her magic is very useful for ranged attacks and allows her to fight without putting her body in danger.

Weaknesses:
Her body is very fragile (She can patch herself up a bit using Vein Bind in desperate situations though) She can't really flip out ninja style because of the condition of her body. (She is dead after all :3) Her magic is very limited and will run out quickly. Heather can be killed or at least her physical body can. Her soul however is eternal but she can't do much as a spirit so in most cases losing her body in a fight will result in her losing the tournament.

Background Info:
*Short Version* (Cause I suck at writing this kind of stuff)
Born a long time ago now. She has a young sister called Matilda who is infact a witch.....a bad witch....a very bad witch who killed her parents and cast the Undead curse on her older sister. This older sister being Heather. (Also should be noted the spell was incomplete and failed.) Matilda then vanished. Heather however lingered on... She started off her undead years looking for a way to break the curse and when no cure could be found she gave up and started to wander the world pretty much keeping out of everyones way. She's been on a few adventures already and during one such adventure learned that she could harness the power of her curse and use it to her advantage. Sadly though she was captured soon after this and imprisioned, tortured (Which didn't do very much to her really...she is Undead after all) and experimented on for many many years. Even after her captures had long since left and died she survived alone in a cell deep below the earth in a bunker no living soul would ever find.

This is where our story begins...:3

__________________________________________
Theme Music -
(Let it be known right now that I suck at finding music for my ocs. My music range is pretty small and I don't really listen to anything while I draw so...um..yeah)

- Castlevania: Symphony of the Night Music - Lost Painting - [link] (It has the slow heart beat and the sad tune with a hint of hope that I was looking for. Perfect for Heather's Theme)

- The Haunting by Kamelot - [link] (A temp battle theme until I find something else)

- Ragnarok Online (OST)- Help Yourself - [link] (I picture it being used when Heather is exploring the forest outside the mansion. Evil lurks.)

- Within Temptation - Jillian - [link] ( Seemed appropritate somehow. :3)

- ??? (Currently looking for more) (Any recommendations would be helpful)


Additional Info: ( For all you oc's that like to be know-it-alls :3)

- Heather's curse is actually called 'Dhrovus A'nim Dran' which roughly translates as 'Dark Soul Shackles' The spell comes in three parts. The first part kills the target. The second part resurrects the target and binds in to its body. The third part then binds the body to the caster. Due to an error in the spell however only 1/3 of the spell worked. Heather was killed and then turned undead but she was not bound properly to her body and wasn't bound at all to the caster. This allows Heather to attach herself to other soulless corpses and take them over. (Once Heather has attached her soul to a body she is stuck with it till it is too damaged to contain her. Only then may she leave it and look for another one.)

- Heather's current physical body is not her original one. She has had many before it and will no doubt have many more after it.

- People who are sensitive to the occult and magic etc will be able to faintly see Heather's soul inside her body.

- Heather doesn't need to say anything to cast her magic. She just thinks about it and it happens.

- Heather never laughs. She also can't blink. She is able to squint her eyes but not fully close them. Her eyes stop glowing when they are closed or if she is blinking. (Theses are just old habits however there is no real reason for her to close her eyes.)

- Heather will sometimes react to being hit, stabbed, cut, shot, kicked and poked which will seem odd at first seeing as she doesn't feel anything. Old habits die hard I suppose. Heather must see the action taking place to react to it. She won't notice shes been stabbed in the back for example until she looks down and sees a blade sticking out of her chest.

- If anyones oc wants to recognise that the curse Heather has was cast by a witch feel free too.

- I can't can't think of anything else to add. If you've got any ideas that you want to check to see work or any questions really for that matter, please comment or note me. I'm happy to help in any way I can.

Nice character, very well thought out. I have an undead character too- a couple, in fact.
1) Griffon Blaize- died whilst possessed by demon, came back as a wraith, has magical powers due to the fact he was a kitsune, can raise zombies. A smug git, but super intelligent.
2) Lord Euristheus- zombie of ancient Greek king, paroniod and edgy, has the power to heal other but not himself, can 'borrow' bodies of others. Hates insects.

Wow, thanks. If I'd known how many Undead characters had been created before mine I might have reconsidered my idea but I guess she should be able to hold her own in the tournament. Thats if I get accepted :3

Zeikier In reply to Baron-Fredrico [2009-01-03 07:10:53 +0000 UTC]

Well, I haven't seen too many undead characters (I've seen a few, however), but I think this one has some good elements going for it. Then again, I'm not very experienced in what powers the undead have besides resilience!

I'm auditioning as well, so here's good luck to both of us, I suppose! ^^

Baron-Fredrico In reply to Zeikier [2009-01-03 07:26:40 +0000 UTC]

I gave her some magic seeing as her undead body will get beaten up alot in close combat situations.

Thanks for your comments by the way and Goodluck as well.
Hopefully see you in Nevara~
