Character Basics
Character Name Lilith | "Samael" Series/Canon OC, pg [community profile] aforestdark_rp
AU/PG/Canon Point After cancelling the apocalypse Game(s) [community profile] starhuevalley
Canon Details "The country for the unjustly dead" was an afterlife specifically for those souls who died with some destiny-ordained task left undone, thereby damaging the fabric of fate. There, they would be put through trials designed to both refine and judge their worthiness to go back and fix the mistake that killed them. This task was carried out by "Arbiters," parasitic organisms of all shapes and sizes that took the bodies of any unworthy dead who volunteered to act as their hosts.

...That was how it was meant to go, anyway. However, a dark stain called "the Spill" has been slowly moving over the land, devouring any Arbiters it comes across and changing the shades it touches into horrible, hungry caricatures of their former selves— and nobody seems to know where it's come from or how to stop it...
Character Details
Age Appears to be in her early twenties Hair Dark, dull blue.
Height/Weight 6'1", ~300 pounds. Heavier than she looks! Eyes Dark, dull blue. They don't seem to reflect the light quite the way they should...
Notable Traits Wears a giant emerald tree boa skull over her face like a mix between a mask and a visor— like this, or this. (Sometimes this will be concealed via transformation, if your characters can sense that— usually this will be centered in a pair of hair ribbons with seals inked on to them tied at her temples, but she can do it without them. The transformation itself can't be seen through, since it isn't an illusion— only sensed.)

Heavily scarred; the most noticeable are thick keloids over her knuckles and some old surgical seams crossing her right cheek and circling her neck and right wrist. ...There's also something just a little unsettling about her even aside from the scars and the skull, but it's difficult to pin down just what.

Clothing Cute hoodies, often with lace or ribbon accents (or both), worn with jeans and boots (when working) or a skirt and leggings. On fancier days she'll go full EGL style dresses, complete with cloak— and if she's not wearing either of those she's in something almost completely backless, showing off the nasty burn scars on her back and the corset piercing she's got laced over them.

Regardless of what she's wearing, she almost always has either flowers in her hair or braided into a crown, or ribbons tied around the jaw hinges of the snake skull close to her ears. Generally dresses in subdued blacks and greys, but always has at least one dark blue accent visible somewhere on her person.

15 Second Summary A judge of the dead in the shape of a giant snake skull consensually possessing a dead Frankenstein. (A Forest Dark was a hell of game, okay.)

Lilith (the host) is somber, frequently morbid and/or dramatic, and has a hell of temper, but she's also overall a caring sort of individual who really just wants to be accepted and cared for for who she is. She has some personhood issues (being a frankensteinian construct who was treated like a monster will do that), but she and her partner are working on it.

Samael is a little harder to describe. As a creature literally programmed for a specific function (the testing and judgement of the dead), she doesn't quite have free will or a very human perspective— however, experience and the influence of the people around her have lead her to develop a quiet, patient, and selfless personality, with a strong interest in other people's lives and stories. She enjoys seeing the happiness of the people around her, and strongly dislikes seeing anyone suffering unecessarily— though her definition of "unnecessary" is perhaps a little non-standard...
Abilities & Permissions
Abilities Superhuman strength and durability— nothing short of destroying her brain will do much more than slow them down, even if you do manage to do serious damage to the rest of their body. Thanks to Samael's previous host body being a Naruto-style ninja (A Forest Dark was a hell of a game), they're also very capable with martial arts, assorted weaponry, and some ninjutsu.

Samael individually can heal or alter bodies, has some limited control over plant growth, and also has "authority" over the dead— particularly the "unjustly dead," IE characters from AUs where they died when in canon they lived. If you have a character who falls into that category and do/do not want her to take an interest in them, please let me know!

Permissions I am okay with many things! My only real limits are that I can't play out outright noncon or dubcon that would lead to anyone being too upset later, and I'd prefer to avoid loving descriptions of certain kinds of torture (eye, mouth, or finger trauma). If things are getting intense one way or another I would also like to be in contact!

Sensing People capable of sensing the dead or spirits will probably get some sort of bizarre ping from her, since she's basically a psychopomp possessing the dead soul of a creature made from corpses. People capable of sensing chakra or power levels or whatever will notice that hers is pretty up there (though anything like the Byakugan can tell the vast majority of it is stored in the skull, rather than in the rest of her body).
