Description I'm trying out for a group again = A =''
Hope I get in..... orz

I really rushed everything. My mind is not very clear right now....

The happy Prince : [link]


• [Name] Azelais Swallow (LOL)

• [Title] The Prince's Messenger (Sorry, that's not very original orz)

• [Gender] Female.

• [Race] Bird...?

• [Age] 8 months

• [Date of Birth] May 13th

• [Country] Kingdom of Nafiel

• [Job] Messenger of a statue of a Prince. Not payed.

• [Skills]


Flight: Like most birds, Azelais can fly. Hardly a skill, but distinguishes her from the rest of the human beings. Also benefits the Happy Prince, Ruzanel.

Speed: Unlike most swallows, Azelais can fly faster and longer. This was due to the training that she got while delivering heavy parcels of jewels to the citizens in Nafiel.

Talking to Animals: She can communicate to all the animals in the animal kingdom. This is not something swallows can do. It is a unique gift only for Azelais.

Transforming: Well, she transforms from a swallow to a human in order to complete her mission and to save the prince.



• [Personality]
Hardworking, persistent, emotional, sensitive, girly..?, strong, and determined.

• [Story] Once upon a time, there was a kind prince who loved his people very much. When he passed away, it made sense for the citizens of Nafiel (the kingdom in which this story is told) to build a statue in order to honor this prince. And when the statue was finished, it was made with gold and furnished with all the jewels that could possibly have been put on.
Many people prayed to the prince, or smiled whenever they passed by the statue, for he was a happy prince.
One stormy, cold day, a swallow flew by, exhausted from her flight. She had wandered about, lost and afraid, and decided to shelter underneath the statue of the happy prince. Suddenly, the happy prince spoke.
"Hello little swallow."
The swallow looked up with surprise. The prince was crying.
"Aren't you supposed to be the happy prince?" The swallow asked.
"My people are suffering. The new king does not love his people, and wage numerous wars in order to expand the kingdom, and his wealth. Can I do nothing but watch?" The prince asked unhappily.
"What can I do?" The swallow inquired. The statue had let her shelter under him, and so she wanted to repay him for his kindness.
"Take the stone on the hilt of my sword. And deliver it to the old lady by the alley," The prince said. "She has no one to take care of her, and winter is quickly coming. With the jewel, she'll be able to buy a warm shawl for herself."
The swallow did as she told. And numerous times, she flew to various places in Nafiel, in order to fulfill the prince's wishes. Soon, she fell in love with the prince's kindness. But one day, as she was delivering the prince's eye (for it is a sapphire jewel), she was captured by hunters, and lost the jewel in the midst of escaping.
Devastated and hurt, she could do nothing as a bird. And so, desperate, she prayed to god and asked to be able to transform into a human. She wanted to help the prince, and she could not complete her task in the form that she was in.
And so she changed into a human, and set forth to find her beloved's left eye....

And perhaps free the prince himself.

I've never played the game nor have I looked at the characters at all.... In fact, I didn't know about the game Odin Sphere until I searched it up on google because of a previous comment...

I never thought of Oscar Wilde's short stories as fairytales, but upon seeing this I've suddenly realize that that's exactly what they are. You've done a lovely spin on The Happy Prince, this looks like a delightful character! And I'm loving the unconventional wing placement...

I was bored of boring wings at the back
Plus, the wings make it look like a dress. Truthfully, Azelais doesn't wear much = o =

Your colouring's getting nicer :'D
Although you seem to be concentrating around the face area {or at least that's what it feels like} so make sure you pay attention to the rest of the body too /shot

laexdream In reply to Cathselprime [2011-11-08 02:32:46 +0000 UTC]

xDDDDD I drew and coloured the face first. Then got tired of doing the rest, and just dabbed some colour on. You got it right on the dot xDDDDDD

Yehhh... I need to stop concentrating on the face. *facepalm
I have this habit, and I need to fix it = A =''

And thanks for the fav o u o

really? Thank you. ^^
I kind of messed it up... When I have the time, I surely have to fix it up again. I really like to draw her, because I like complicated characters. = u = I suck at drawing them though.

I don't really design them that well orz I still need practice. Like, colour design and all that? Not my forte xD

Pfft, you do not suck at complicated cahracters! Look at this! Its bootiful!

color composition and stuff, I fail at too OTL; but sometimes I cheat and use Adobe Kuler ; 3;
