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.
Etc;
