Selene York
Height; 5'5"
Weight; Around 160
General Appearance; Selene is slender, curvy as befits a woman of her time, and in no way gives the impression of the impossible strength and skills she possesses. She is not the most beautiful of York sisters, her hair a chestnut brown and her eyes of similar color. She's pale and has nearly unblemished skin, save for a bite mark at her neck, that is normally covered by clothes. Her beauty is enhanced when she smiles or laughs, it has a way of darkening her eyes that give it a bedroom quality and a twinkle that she normally doesn't have. Her body changes to one of warmth, rather than her normal cold, haunted demeanor. She is not one for makeup (usually), but when she motivates herself, she can become a real knockout.
Physical Mannerisms; Selene of late has begun to walk with the same elegance and class that she had when she was a human. She's lost the normal lumbering about and embraced her more refined past. She moves softly and quietly, her feet seemingly floating across the ground. This allows her footsteps to be muffled and give her a more silent approach. When she is nervous or upset, she will fiddle with the ring on her finger. She has a few visual tics beyond that, which give away a trauma that she suffered. She never stands with her back exposed. She is either standing against a wall or turned enough so that she is at an angle. She also bites her lip whenever a painful subject is brought up. She'll fidget with a cigarette without lighting it, just rolling it between her fingers or shift how she is holding it. All of this a way to keep her hands or body busy.
Verbal Mannerisms; When Selene first arrived, she had spoken with an American accent, losing her natural British clip over the years. She's started speaking with it again, accepting more of her past and who she was than before. She's stopped pretending that she is someone else entirely. Her voice is softer now, less gruff and abrasive. She is gentle in tone and address, attempting to be respectful to everyone she meets. While she does still occasionally swear, it's a lot more rare now and only on passionate subjects. When she is nervous or feels close to breaking into her derangement, she begins to speak in Arabic, murmuring a specific phrase to herself over and over again (MESSAGE ME IF YOU KNOW ARABIC). Her voice now indicates that she is a lady of breeding, polished and refined. This is a different way for her to speak and a brand new Selene.
Fashion; Before her disappearance, Selene was the lumberjack, dressing in jeans and plaids. That's not the case anymore. She's a cleaner dresser, choosing outfits that she can move around in silently and quickly. She's dressed for a war. Blacks are her preferred color now. Though when she isn't feeling active or the need to focus on a project, she has taken to wearing more Persian styles. Even a bit Greek. She's not afraid to hide how good she looks anymore and will dress very neatly and clean when casual. Her style has matured and shows more pride in who she is and where she came from.

Helena Georgia Wells
Height;5'7"
Weight; 125 Ilbs.
General Appearance; Helena is slender, but appearances are deceiving. Her body is toned from years of martial arts training, as well as an active lifestyle. She even has somewhat sculpted abs (it's a four pack). Her skin is porcelain with a ton of freckles, though the freckles are from her neck down rather than on her face. She has several dark ones on her chest, some of which are visible when she wears shirts that expose her chest. Her black hair falls to roughly her midback, and it's always well maintained. She has very thick hair with layers cut into it, and it always looks soft and has the appearance of liquid ebony due to its shininess. She also has an excellent sense of hygiene. Helena's dark brown eyes are almost always kind, though they always carry a sense of sadness and loss about them. If anyone knows what loss looks like, it is easy to tell that Helena lost someone she loved.
Physical Mannerisms; She always maintains perfect posture. Or tries to, anyway. There are times when she's in a bad mood where her shoulders may sag, a physical tell that she is not okay. Helena also enjoys invading people's personal bubbles, especially if she likes them. She just enjoys standing a little too close to people sometimes. It amuses her. Helena also has a very deep appreciation for her sense of touch. After being deprived of her senses for over a century, she doesn't take any of her senses for granted. Sometimes she has a lingering touch, be it a handshake that goes on slightly longer than necessary or a hug that she doesn't break when manners dictate she should. These things all remind her that she is both alive and physical. She also a propensity to run her hands through her hair or flip her hair over her shoulder quite often.
Verbal Mannerisms; She has a bit of an upper class English accent. Helena speaks with a perfect diction, always annunciating her words, so she can be clearly understood. The only exception is if she's upset and yelling. Her voice is slightly high in pitch, but there's enough of deeper undertones to it that it's not annoying. She can use her voice as a weapon. When angry, her voice can be sharp and cut through someone just as easily as a sharp blade can. Likewise, she can also purr and it can be incredibly sultry when she wants it to be.
Fashion; Helena's fashion has been evolving slightly ever since being unbronzed. She wears pants on a daily basis, and her shirts range from oxford shirts to sleeveless and tanktop shirts now. Though she doesn't wear bright colors very often. She is still very Victorian in her color palette. She will wear red or a vibrant blue shirt at times, but beyond that, her wardrobe largely contains white, black, grey and various shades of blue. She also wears some jewelry. Her locket is always around her neck, and she has a few ear piercings. Both of her lobes are pierced and she always wears pearl earrings in them. She also has cartilage piercings, two on her right ear and two on her left ear. Helena wears very light make-up, largely just foundation and blush. Every so often she'll wear eye shadow and light lipstick, but beyond that, she doesn't wear much.

Charlotte Elizabeth Howard
Height;5'7"
Weight; 120 Ilbs.
General Appearance; Charlotte is slender, though her frame greatly belies her supernatural strength. It is obvious she took great care of her body while she was alive, and she still maintains a high standard of hygiene. She is always the epitome of style and grace, never a hair out of place. Her skin is that of porcelain, though it has the pale touch of death to its hue now. The paleness makes her freckles stand out that much more, though her freckles are contained to her neck, torso and arms than being on her face. Her black hair hangs to her waist when she does not have it done up. Since being in Niflheim, she has taken to wearing her hair down a bit more and playing with styles a bit more than she'd done in her own home. Her dark brown eyes are decidedly those of a hunter. They always have a gleam in them, though it varies on whether that gleam is dangerous or seductive. There is a hardness to her eyes that is almost always there, though it tends to hide the broken heart she carries in her chest. She is a deeply hurt creature, but she is also equally angry and vicious.
Physical Mannerisms; The daughter of a Duke, Charlotte carries a very recognizable regal bearing to any who are familiar with nobles. Charlotte moves with a fluid grace that is almost uncanny, though this is more a carry over from her human life than anything her vampiric state granted her. She always holds her chin high, and her pride most certainly precedes her wherever she goes. Charlotte carries herself with confidence, and always maintains the essence of perfect posture. She is a Duchess both by birth and by her own merit, and she is also a Queen. Perfect posture and perfect manners were ingrained into her head as a child, and they've only become more solidified at her rise to power within the vampiric sect.
Verbal Mannerisms; Charlotte has an extremely posh accent, though if any are experts at picking out accents, they may pick out that Charlotte is from the Sussex area of England originally, though her centuries in London have shifted her accent to be more London-centric. Also any who are able to pick up on nuances in a voice may be able to tell that modern English is not Charlotte's first language. Her parents both spoke Middle English, and she was born during the transition from Middle to Modern English. Sometimes her Middle English slips through. Her voice is slightly higher pitched, though still rich and well-rounded so as not to grate on one's ears. Her voice, too, can be a weapon, going cold and sharper than any blade when she's angry. Her voice also can carry authority with it.
Fashion; Charlotte wears dresses and only dresses. Since coming to Niflheim, she has embraced more modern and non-Victorian clothing styles. She also does enjoy not wearing a corset on a daily basis, not that it truly matters to her given she doesn't need to breathe. Still, she is always dressed impeccably, dress perfect and not a single hair out of place. She doesn't wear much make up, usually just enough to give her a slight hue of color to her cheeks. The lobes of both her ears are pierced, and she wears earrings on a daily basis. Necklaces, rings and bracelets also make frequent appearances, depending upon what dress she's wearing.

Ming Numara!
Height; 5'11
Weight; 170
General Appearance; Despite her delicate features and graceful mannerisms, Ming is surprisingly tall and solid. For all she looks soft and padded, a great deal of it is muscle. She often wears her long red hair up in a braid or high horse tail, and is rarely seen without makeup. She has no scars or blemishes whatsoever, due to her regenerative nature. On her chest, between her breasts, is a glowing blue emblem. It emits blue light when she's working with magical energy, and she usually keeps it covered with a silver and diamond crest affixed to her clothes.
Physical Mannerisms; Ming talks with her hands. They're always in motion as she's speaking, and she often clasps them together when she's finished talking. She holds herself upright at all times, head high and shoulders back. Her movements are graceful and controlled, as she's spent a thousand years in the public eye and being observed. She cocks her head when she asks questions, or is puzzling something out.
Verbal Mannerisms; Ming has a soft, musical voice with an upper class English accent. She uses a lot of non-words - 'hmm' and 'mm' and 'ah' - in conversation. She hardly ever curses, and tends to use very positive association words, even when discussing unpleasant or negative things. Her tone is often warm and motherly, and she tends to speak very matter of factly. When she has reason to, she can project her voice and speak quite powerfully, but she rarely does.
Fashion; Ming loves fashion. She wears gowns and dresses and accessories, and almost always in shades of blue and white and silver. Sometime purple and green work their way in, but she mostly sticks with her royal colors. She favors things that show off her arms and are slit along the legs, and dresses to compliment and show off her figure. When she's working in the clinic, however, she wears simple Grecian style gowns belted at the waist. She never wears her canon leathers, they're too complicated for her to deal with every morning without her handmaidens to dress her. She also doesn't quite understand the concept of underwear and outerwear, and will wear fancy bras as shirts with skirts.

Seth Balmore
Height; 5'9"
Weight; 150?
General Appearance; Seth is athletically built. Long legs, lean muscle. Though she's a thousand years old, she appears to be about thirty. Her light/medium brown skin is completely unscarred (thanks, regenerative body). Her hair is deep blue, and pretty unruly. It's usually held back with a headband if she's going out. Her eyes are sharp and blue-grey.
Physical Mannerisms; Seth is bouncy and incredibly quick and agile. She has perfect posture, but there's never anything stiff about her stance. She almost seems to move effortlessly. She's terrible at sitting still.
Verbal Mannerisms; Seth can be a pretty smooth talker if she wants. Not long-winded, but often flirtatious or sharply sarcastic depending on the situation.
Fashion; She's often seen in her canon outfit: yellow halter top, shorts and a skirt, comfortable leather boots, minus the armor; it's a pain in the ass to put it on every morning. Seth dresses for both function and looks. She won't wear something she can't move around in freely.

Tara Maclay
Height; 5'4" (Going by Amber Benson's height)
Weight; 150 or 160
General Appearance; Tara is a beautiful woman in the classical sense. She is curvy and natural, similar to the women of romantic paintings. She has long brown hair and blue eyes. Her maturity and wisdom give her an older feel than in actuality. Magic courses through her, allowing those around her to feel peace and serenity, a sort of calm that eminates from those that are genuinely kind and loving, maternal in nature.
Physical Mannerisms; Tara is a very quiet and soft, she doesn't move about in ways that would attract attention to herself. She pulls inward more than outward. When she is nervous, she'll fidget with whatever she has, but has shown a lot more confidence in how she holds herself. She's starting to find that strength she had shortly before her death.
Verbal Mannerisms; Tara speaks more firmly now, only occasionally stuttering when she is nervous. Her voice is still soft and gentle, but there is an edge to it when she is angry. She doesn't tolerate people who are cruel or harsh, dismissing them completely. She never swears and probably won't until pushed to an extreme.
Fashion; Tara often dresses in long skirts, flowy tops or corsets. She has a very Wiccan feel to her wardrobe. She enjoys bright colors and anything that is Earth based.

Margaery Tyrell
Height; 5'4"
Weight; 130
General Appearance; Margaery is tall, slender and very elegant. She is extremely beautiful with unique features and the bearing of a lady. She looks as though she is born to be queen. Her features are beautiful, with long auburn hair and sharp blue eyes. Her lovely face is able to conceal whatever calculation and thoughts that may be running through her mind. Her beauty works as a mask, distracting any from her true purpose and aim in life, never letting them know what her motives are.

Physical Mannerisms; Margaery walks very elegantly. She is dainty in her physical movement, always subdued and calm. She is gentle to those that she first meets, offering them a stance of kindness and openness. She is welcoming in her manner and facial features. With children or those she cares about, she allows the walls down and shows her true heart and soul. There is no guarded mask, there is no queen, she is only Margaery.
Verbal Mannerisms; She speaks very properly with what sounds like an English accent. She never swears or speaks crudely, every comment that is suggestive or crass is veiled behind elegant euphemisms. She is always very careful not to reveal too much about herself or true feelings, save for those she cares for. She is diplomatic in tone and knows how to make threats or jabs, but under the guise of sweetness and innocence.
Fashion; Margaery dresses in pastels, generally in blues. She loves light and airy gowns, not afraid to show her arms or midriff. Lately, she has been stuck in the same dress, but has recently gotten more of an extensive wardrobe. She especially loves anything with roses are embellishments.

Sarah Jane Smith

[personal profile] investigatetime 2014-08-26 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Sarah Jane Smith
Height; 5'4"
Weight; 125 lbs
General Appearance; Sarah Jane is of average height and weight. She prefers to wear her chestnut brown hair down, and it's naturally straight with some curl to the ends. On rare occasions she will wear it up. She is naturally very fair skinned with light brown/hazel eyes.
Physical Mannerisms; She will walk with a straight back and sit up straight. Even though she was raised by her aunt, who was a bit of an adventurer and ahead of her time, Sarah Jane was still taught to be proper. She's sort of awkward when trying to learn self defense with Helena, but knows she'll relax more with time.
Verbal Mannerisms; Sarah has a very clear cut, educated English accent. She's spent most of her years around London. She also knows some French.
Fashion; When Sarah Jane first arrived, she realized her style was too dated with flared edges and high waistlines. She's relaxed more now after being in the Temple and Gebo. She's copied many of the women around her and wears a more relaxed look with some skirts, not as tight shirts, shoes with some heel to them. Though sometimes she does miss her old wardrobe from home.

[personal profile] madame_de_pompadour 2014-08-26 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Reinette Poisson
Height; 5'5" near 5'6"
Weight; 170
General Appearance; Reinette is a beautiful, poised and regal woman. She is of middling height, close to 5'6" in heels. She possesses soft blonde hair and vibrant blue eyes. Her cheeks have a natural blush to them and her skin is a lovely white pallor. Reinette has a kind face, devoid of the natural cynicism and deception that many at court obtained through years of training. Her heart is worn on her sleeve and her emotions are easily evident from her eyes.
Physical Mannerisms; Reinette is a cultured lady and it is shown in every move she makes. She was well educated in ballet and dance, which has infected her general movement and hand gestures. She is graceful and dainty, always presenting herself as a lady, beautiful and delicate.
Verbal Mannerisms; Reinette speaks with a proper French accent, her language befitting the upper class. She speaks precisely and clearly. When she is angry, she will lash out in her natural language. She rarely swears, but if she does, it is only in French.
Fashion; She is an elegant dresser, more often preferring the styles of her time period. They are simpler than other ladies of Versailles, lacking the number of jewels and adornments, but are costly and beautiful. Lately, she has started adopting the Nysgod style and preferring flowing robes to the cumbersome corsets. It let's her move about more easily and grants her freedom.

Robb Stark

[personal profile] investigatetime 2014-08-27 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
Robb Stark
Height; 5'10"
Weight; 165 lbs
General Appearance; Robb is of average height, and developed muscles from combat training and general rough and tumble as a boy growing up. He has gorgeous curly black hair with blue eyes, and is normally unshaven with about a week-worth growth of a beard. He'll shave from time to time, but actually prefers the facial hair.
Physical Mannerisms; Considering he's royal-born, he carries himself with his head held high, back straight. He walks with a purpose and often carries his sword with him still. There's also some scarring to his chest, shoulder, and gut from stab wounds (arrows to the shoulder and chest, knife to the gut). Originally he couldn't place where the chest scar was, but after dreaming of the Red Wedding, his memory is back and complete.
Verbal Mannerisms; Along with a usual stoic expression, Robb also speaks in a nondescript northern English-like accent that is often mono-tone. It's not too deep or too high-pitched.
Fashion; Since Robb is new to the Nysgod world, he had to get a new wardrobe, rather than the leathers and furs of the northern Westeros wear. He prefers a more classic look with fitted, tailored clothes, sticking to darker more earth-tones.

Blaine Thorps
Height; 6'2"
Weight; 215 lbs
General Appearance; Blaine is a tall, blonde haired, blue eyed, well muscled man who appears to be in his early to mid twenties but he's thirty now after a couple of years world/time hopping. He wears well tailored clothes when he can find them, so the muscle definition he has is hidden. He always has a ring on him, whether it be on a random finger or on a chain under his clothes. He also has 4 ear piercings and a clip, all silver in his right ear: a stud in his lobe, 3 small hoops going up the side, and a clip along the shell at the top.
Physical Mannerisms;When Blaine walks he has a long, confident stride that always makes him seem like he's going somewhere unless he purposefully slows down, and then it feels more like he's playfully stalking than meandering without purpose. His posture is more or less straight, but he'll slouch when he's trying to fade into the background, usually when he's working and trying not to be obvious. His hands rarely stay still unless he puts them in his pocket. He gestures when he speaks and if he isn't making motions he's moving the ring he wears from one finger to another.
Verbal Mannerisms; He has no accent, other than the standard American English accent, despite growing up in the south east. He speaks three languages fluently [English, Spanish, Italian], but his Italian sometimes has a Spanish accent. Whenever he speaks in another language his accent is Spanish rather than English. His vocabulary changes according to who he's speaking to, making him a bit of a chameleon when he wants to be. He whistles, hums, or sings to himself when he's cooking.
Fashion; His favorite color is blue and he often matches it with white or silver, but he wears a rainbow of colors according to whatever he feels like putting on. The style is generally preppy rich boy with pressed slacks, casual dress shoes -yes, casual dress shoes- and a button up, but he'll dress it down with a witty graphic tee. Never polos though. He hates polos, but he'll put on a vest in a heartbeat. He has a closet full of suits from when he worked in Big Pharma but he also has a lot of slouchy bum clothes that he used to blend in when he was working as a hitman. A lot of his clothes are tailored to hide his gun and to put a liner in his pants so he can skip wearing underwear without worry about it showing. Priorities.
