// A Little More Intimate, Now Don't Be Shy //
Appearance:
Xara is a good five feet, four inches tall. Her build is lithe, strong and solid but still has a sexy slender quality. She has long, deep auburn hair that hangs down to the small of her back. Her eyes are a deep forest green and are very good at betraying her emotions. Her skin is fair with a bit of a tanned look to it, smooth and virtually unmarked by imperfections, save for a few freckles here and there.
She has, on top of her head, two large red-fox styled ears. They are pointed, denoting her adulthood. Her teeth are also razor sharp, like fangs, denoting the amount of power she has. Her tail is long and bushy. It is easily hid, but she doesn't bother. Humans like fluffy things. They think they're cute an harmless.
She has the trade mark features of her species:
They look like humans and their bodies function like humans for the most part (as in basic bodily functions and reproduction). Instead of conventional human ears they have on the tops of their heads tall animal-like ears, normally fox-like though the colors vary to match the persons hair color. The shape of their ears often denote a persons age, as the 'bĂȘte can live without fear of dying from old age. They will die from fatal wounds and illnesses, although their connection with their own bodies allows them to monitor and prevent many of these issues. Their eyes are large and expressive, and can come in many different shades and colors, more then the human iris can. Some have been known to have pink iris's, red irises, violet ones and so on. They stop aging at age 26, though some may look younger or older, just like how some humans look younger/older then they actually are.
Personality:
Xara is grappling with her warrior heritage. She doesn't like to tell people who she was, because they expect her to be ruthless and warrior-like in the way TV and movie warriors are; cold blooded and fierce. Xara is peaceful by nature. Her warrior tendencies are one small setting about her personality, triggered by dire last-resort situations. She is not a very loud person, and is often very thoughtful. On earth she is still finding that she is out of her element and this makes her very insecure.
Xara is generally a peaceful woman, despite being able to kill. This woman has a good sense of humor, when she understands the references, and is no stranger to having fun. She loves ice cream and mayonnaise, but cannot stand the taste of carbonated drinks. She has had a bit of a bad habit for addictions, mostly to alcohol, and because of the nature of her species she can be emotionally unstable and is very susceptible to emotional abuse. When she is upset the woman will often hide it from people, with the exception of Max in some cases, and if she feels as if it really should be a private emotion she is capable of keeping it buried for long periods of time.
Some of her favorite activities are meditation and watching movies with friends and family. Her least favorite things to do are virtual reality and riding the buses.
History:
Xara was born off world to the queen of an prominent tribe on her world. She was trained as a warrior, then became the trainer of the warriors in her tribe. Just before she came to Earth she was married to a man of high status in her tribe. The marriage was meaningless except for politics and Xara was unhappy. She tried to make it work and convinced herself that she loved the man, and tried to make the relationship work. A few months after they were joined and she was comfortable, they went into a battle together and she watched her mate get killed. Upset and disturbed, spirits broken, the woman attended his funeral and then went into the forest in a blind rush of emotion. She was sucked up by portal and found herself dumped in a new world.
She was processed and sold as a slave to a doctor who abused and utilized her powers to make his hospital and practice a multi million dollar corporation. Xara could heal instantly and was put to work well above the legal amount of hours an employer was allowed to make an employee work. During that period she met Max, who came to the hospital with his friend who was injured, named George. Xara healed George and she and Max kept in touch, eventually turning the relationship into a romantic one.
When her masters wife divorced him, Xara was a part of the property that went to her. Her masters wife treated Xara like a true employee, with full pay, benefits, and everything a human could expect. Xara had moved in with Max by that point and soon became pregnant with his child. She loves his family, but misses her own father who followed them back after they accidentally got transported to her world and then back again.
Now her life revolves around Max and his family, and she is very happy with her new situation on Earth.
Species name: The Mentalists
Species appearance: (if different from character appearance)
Powers and abilities:
The Mentalists are a magical people. They have what scientist call the 'mental connection'. Their powers are not limited to seasons or cycles, however are more subjective to their energy and their own mental state. Which is the reason the 'bĂȘte go into a bit of a meditative state before the enter someones mind. They must have their emotions in check before entering some one else's mind or else they may not be able to break the connection or, even more tragically, kill the person if they are powerful or reckless enough. When they kill using their powers they must suffer through the death with their victim. The first time they kill, their personalities can go either one of two ways; they go insane and lose their empathic connection, which will allow them to kill with no regrets, and even for sport. They feel powerful and since they suffer through the death as well and yet do not die, they feel invincible. People like Xara however will do anything in their power to NOT kill. They treasure all life, and become overly empathic. These people will often give anything, short of their own lives (and even then in some cases), to preserve life. People who have never killed before try to refrain, afraid of the imbalance killing may create. If they have to kill, they would prefer to become empathic.
Weaknesses:
Addictive personality
Mental stresses make them revert to inner personalities
Anything that affects the human mind affects the Mentalist's 100 times more
Origin:
Off world species that came through via portals, first discovered in Cuba on Earth.
