Inescapable Honor & Drabbles

Aella Kouris - Adrasteia- ( Stormwind, Someone who lived in a forest ) Daughter of a Krogan Mercenary

Born 1949 CE, Birthplace: Thessia, Dassus Race: Asari Skintone: #004c4c Eye color: #b6b6b8 Skin highlights: #009999 Max Height: 6′

Aella is a dark skinned Asari with a natural highlight that brightens parts of her body going from dark to light starting at eye level, her face is highlighted, this continues down the soft skin of her neck and breasts, belly, inner arms and inner thighs. The underside of her crest, palms & the bottom of her feet too are this lighter highlighted color. Within these areas of highlight there are lights and darks for scars, or tattoos. But mostly she is unadorned by both. A smattering of dark freckles fall across this lighter skin tone, peppering across nose and cheeks more heavily, appearing more sporadic across the other lighter parts of her body. She has a beauty mark at the corner of her right eye. Her mouth is generous and can easily hold a smile. She has strong cheek bones and a dimple on her chin.

Face Claim

Early Years: Aella experienced the loss of her Asari mother Téchni at a fairly young age. She was still in college when she lost her to a violent death. Her Krogan father Zgar and half brother Burr are still alive. She doesn't really have much to do with her father as she blames him for her mothers death. But she is close to her brother.  She lost a lot of interest in her schooling after Téchni‘s death, Her mother was a gentle soul and guided her gifted daughter in the intricacies of sculpting and art in general. She was an artisan from a family of shipwrights and artists. When that guidance and passion died, it hurt Aella deeply. She grew angry with her father for his life spilling into theirs, disowning him for his part in Téchni’s death. She drifted a long time.

Huntress Years: She was recruited into a huntress cadre who specializes in bounty hunting, during her years of drifting. Finding solace and structure in their ranks. She found that an eye for detail worked just as well in the hunt as it did in the studio. When she met Amelie and Tasoula she was ready for a change and something more stable than the roving life of a bounty hunter. Realizing that soon she would be of child bearing age and that perhaps like her father her past would haunt her daughters.

Elektra was a great boon, her laughter and brightness became a precious commodity that Aella worked hard to foster. As a baby she loved to cause her to laugh... until Elektra experienced the heartache of losing her mother... Aella struggled with this loss as something personal as she relived some of the toughest times of her life through the eyes of her companion. Unlike Hildryn Aella took on the role of boon companion and playmate. Standing even at that young age as her friend rather than instructor and provider.

She has a strong sense of what is fair, and often finds herself a champion against injustice. She was always the first to stand beside Elektra, Not at all finding it difficult to humble herself and receive instruction from the child's teachers as a student herself. Never once did she belittle or condescend Elektra, always offering her hand and pulling her up after a difficult moment.

To Skotadi: It was only natural that Aella became the very vessel of Amelie’s every wish. She was given every opportunity to foster a love not that of a parent, provider or instructor but an equal. Both molding and challenging herself to be someone who complimented Elektra, challenged her and fueled her passions.

After the War: While Aella finds purpose in the rebuilding of the Adrasteian home, T’soni land and Thessia at large she feels stunted in her relationship with her wives. Feeling distanced by her Oestrus cycle and the fear that she will be torn away from them because of it, makes her build defenses against a problem that only truly exists in her head. She longs to give herself to them and begin their family but knows that right now what they all need is time...

Quote: “You are my Pygmalion and I am your ivory creation.” Aella to Elektra.

Tattoos: Later in the A New Dawn time frame she gets a tattoo on her arm, on her inner wrist of a garden planet  with two other orbit paths around it.

When held side by side with Elektra’s and Samantha’s they form a small star cluster. Their star being Samantha, The comet in the system being Elektra who orbits them both, and The planet being Aella..

Foible: She saw she was on the same path as her father whom she is still angry with for the death of her mother. She knows they are more alike than she would like to admit.

Strengths: It is because of her ability to see outside the box that Tasoula puts her into the running for position as her daughter-in-law but it was Aella’s tremendous propensity for humility that she is able to take the Matriarch up on said offer. She redesigns the person she has become to be the perfect mate for Elektra. In so doing she even manages to redefine her “color of life” to the gifted Alítheia Mántis (Truth Seer) . It is because of this meekness that when Elektra see’s this unusual but important color on Samantha she is willing and able to mold herself into someone whom Sam can love as well. Driven.

Faults: Stubborn & Driven. Because of these two faults she experiences burnout and becomes aimless. Recouping from her constant forward progress by having no direction at all. In the worst of times this can make her indecisive and meek. Under certain circumstances it can be a dangerous mix.

First meeting of Elektra

Elektra Adrasteia - ( Bright & Shining ) Daughter of Amelie Adopted by Matriarch Tasoula

Born 2170 CE, November by Earth calendar Birthplace: Thessia, near Armali on T’soni land. Race: Human Skintone: #dfb597 Eye color: #006400 Hair color: #BC5014 Max Height: 5′4″

Face Claim

Growing up human on an Asari world was not easy. She was often seen as an outsider. Thought of as less than by her peer group, never going to be good enough. A quaint little indulgence or a pet project by the older generations.

Having inherited synesthesia from both mother and progenitor, never once did she believe herself unloved, or unwanted. Early Years: A bright and boisterous child. Her laughter filled the courtyards of the estate... That light is dampened before the age of three when Elektra lost her mother Amelie to cancer. By the age of five she has endured the Blitz and began full time biotics & huntress training by her Dado. (Dado is a nickname given Dido and propagated by the elder Matriarchs 2 daughters. By Elektra’s age it is firmly established and used by all when referring to the reformed assassin in relation to little ones.)

Growing Years: Foreseeing that Elektra will be a daughter of war, Tasoula with the help of Matriarch Amaltheia and Dido and the insight of Elektra’s guardians;  builds Elektra’s huntress cadre “To Skotadi” (The Darkness) to help her eke out her safe place in uncertain times. After a rocky start, the Cadre is a complete success, and the women that build it strengthen and empower Elektra through the hardest of times. The Reaper War...

After the War: She is still quiet, and observant... preferring the shadows and dark places of secret to the light... a place her father knew she would walk... but thanks to Tasoula and Amelie’s foresight, it is not a place she walks alone.

Quote: “....”

Tattoos: Red bottom lip stripe down the middle only, none on her chin or upper lip, and black eyeliner on her face

A comet on the back of her neck circling around a planet. Later a star will sit behind both the planet and comet in the background as if both were rotating around the same star. Later she and her wives expand this theme with complimentary wrist tattoo’s that when held side by side will reveal their symbolic place to each other.

Foible: She is sensitive to being called anything but Thessian. She may not be an Asari but she damn well earned her place as a daughter of Thessia.

Strengths: Because of her synesthesia it is difficult to catch her off guard or provoke her unnecessarily. She can see what motivates and moves people, giving her a step up in the compassionate & empathetic department. Lending to her patience & kindness.

She works exceptionally well in a group dynamic and much less so in a individual situation.

Faults: Often critical of herself having been held to a higher standard because of her synesthesia, her biotics & status as Xenia.

She retreats when wounded emotionally, pulling back from people to try and get a better grasp of the situation and strategize how best to proceed.

She hates to be alone.

Biotics & Loadout: Stealth grid/Pull/throwLanceShe snipes from the shadows, her biotics much like her preferred fighting style from a distance. She covers her partner from the back, lending support and protection more often using Aella’s own biotics as a compliment to her own and detonating off Aella. Favored Guns: Assault Rifle - Cerberus Harrier & Heavy Pistol - Scorpion. With either gun Elektra works much the same way. Using suppression fire and or overwhelming force ; both are equipped with extra ammunition and damage enhancements. She uses the stealth grid heavily and her suit is designed to carry as many charges as possible to enable this heavy load.

First meeting of Sham

Sha’Mya  or Sham - (Habit in Urdu) The proprietress of the Forgotten Huntress.

A crusty, Asari who has retired from adventuring and put her wisdom to use in the aid of her guests at the small pub the Forgotten Huntress. While Asari excel at ambassadorial ventures, her preferred form of problem resolution usually ends with a Disciple being leveled at the trouble maker, and she giving them the choice to leave in one piece or two.

So I’m gonna make it easy for you... kiss and make up or get out.” Born 1358CE From Nartin - The people of Nartin are known for their stubborn nature, described as 'rough charm' or merely uncouth depending on the source.
