Galirayna Duskshatter

This one is easy:  Morena Baccarin. The only reason she isn’t already Rayna’s Face Reference is that Rayna’s a blonde.

What way does your OC show that they care without using words? -- Rayna is the type to say little things that others might not see for the expressions of caring that they are. “Wear a jacket”, “be careful”, things of that nature are often ways she says “I love you, please come home safe and whole”.  Also, she’s real big into feeding people she cares for. She’s not the best cook, but she puts her heart into it.

What way do others show your OC that they’re cared about without using speech? -- This one is hard, since empathy means she usually just knows. But, there are little things she’s grown accustomed to. Having her favorite bath oils given to her, her carpentry tools sharpened, a new piece of driftwood brought to her to work on are all ways that she’s recently been shown without being told.

In the words of her lover/mate/partner:

Galirayna. Where to begin? Possessing the body that would make even the most narcissistic daughter of Aphrodite green with envy.  Her curves are the stuff of men's and women's fantasies, wrapped in beautiful creamy complexion that could make even the most pious priest drool with sin, and they have. Her long beautiful hair is the color of the very coin her pursuers seek to shower her in. And for all her beauty, no man nor woman could ever hope to possess her. Despite her deific beauty, she is not one prone to misplaced, or maybe even deserved, narcissism. Her empathy is as deep as the ocean, and her love for all living things has given her the ability to do no harm. Indeed where others would raise a hand in violence, she would offer it in friendship. Though those who are foolish enough to earn her distrust and contempt anyway will find that her words will do just as much harm as any sword or sling, for she possesses a viper's kiss. And before I get ahead of myself she is indeed more than just her looks, for within that body of a goddess lies the mind of a scholar. Though her scholarly side is only seen by those fortunate enough to be that close to her. To have the privilege of seeing her at her most astute is worth more than all the gold that others have so readily given her because of her beauty alone. --(@jerardbp)
