- Shida
- Rashi
Age:
18
Species:
Human
Planet of Origin:
Earth
Gender:
Feminine
Current Standing:
Secretary
Detailed Appearance:
Rashida is of a tall, slender build. You know how most taller teenagers go through that slightly awkward stage where they're gangly and mismatched? Well Rashida never outgrew that stage, but she manges to carry herself with grace and elegance. Rashida stands at about 6' even.
She has a petite head set on a slender neck. Body is willowy, legs are long and svelte. Feet are a bit large, since she is so tall. She's a bit underweight, at about 130. Shida's hair is a deep pine green and flows to her hips. It's styled with thick bangs in front that fall over bright green eyes, and with a face framing effect. Skin is a sandy color.
During work, Rashida can be seen in a professional outfit - usually a blouse with a suit jacket and a knee length skirt. Usual colors include tan, black, white, red, sky blue, and other such colors. When she's not working, she can be found wearing skinny jeans and tight-fitting tee-shirts. Over all, this makes her body look even taller and slimmer then it is in actuality.
Strengths:
- Is very perceptive of people's moods
- Is fairly quiet - keeps her own counsel
Weaknesses:
- Doesn't necessarily care about others feelings very much
- Doesn't make friends very easily
Personality:
Rashida is a generally quiet person. She doesn't attach herself unnecessarily to others. If asked a question, she'll usually answer it as briefly as possible. She often will simply fade into the background. She is a diligent worker, if a bit absent minded. Since she is so young, it is often speculated that she might have been promiscuous to get as good as a secretary job as she had. Contrary to that popular belief, Shida tries to discourage flirting and the like, which only makes her all the more elusive and mysterious.
The girl also has an uncanny ability to guess someone's mood. The way she does this is by carefully examining the way they react, and their facial expressions. Occasionally she is wrong, though very rarely. Even though she may have the ability to guess emotions, she very rarely cares anything about them. To her, others are just petty annoyance - rather like a fly you would brush off without a second thought.
Rashida is not completely devoid of emotions herself though. She harbors a special affinity for young children and those who take good care of such children. She herself, has never had any children, and most likely never will.
One of the biggest things that annoy Rashida to no end are those who think they are 'all that.' Just because they think they are a gift to this mortal world, does not mean they need to impart this knowledge to everyone else. At least, this is what Rashida firmly believes. Around such people, she'll usually end up cussing them out - albeit under her breath.
One of Rashida's favorite things is anything shiny. If you want to please her, then get her something that shimmers in the sunlight. If you want to distract her, unexpectantly give her a shiny item. Best of luck though - nothing in this galaxy has yet yet to catch her unawares.
Prized Possessions:
She has a small, foreign necklace. It's shiny(xD) and a golden color. Often times she keeps it hidden beneath her shirts - though occasionally the golden chain might show. It's a star fish with a purple-red andhra garnet is set in the center of the starfish. And right above the starfish, another Andhra gemstone is set in the chain.
History:
Rashida was born on Earth. She had lived all of her life on this planet. Her life was rather ordinary, until the age of 16. Shida had had parents, a younger brother, aunts, uncles, grandparents - you know - the like. On her sixteenth birth-day she got into some sort of tiff with her family. She moved away and swore she'd never be a part of the Vosca Family again. She changed her last name, and became withdrawn inside of herself. No longer does she trust any adults.
Since then, she has managed to make a life for herself. A dear friend took her in, and taught her the fine art of being a secretary. Rashida worked hard at what she did, and soon became one of the better secretaries out there - if you can stop her from day dreaming. After Shida's friend died, her boss gave Rashida the secretary job as a temporary job, but Shida managed to keep it, proving herself to be an excellent secretary.
Supposively, Rashida has large sum of money - either saved up or inherited from her good friend. According to the rumors, Rashida had stolen the inheritance of the old woman right out from under the nose of her children. Of course, this is all speculation considering that Rashida will say nothing but the shortest sentences about the subject.
All in all, her history is a mystery. Many have speculated, but few - if none - have been told her past.
Try if you'd like.
I doubt you'll break her.
Roleplay Sample:
Deadly feline prowled the inky darkness. A lazy yawn parted her lips, revealing gleaming incisors. Striped pelt blended in well as shadows danced and flickered over it. Large paws padded silently down the alley. The large predator shivered the slightest bit as a brisk and heartless wind whistled down the alley. This feline may have thick fur, but she had been built to live in a jungle. 'Time to get out of this wretched cold,' the tigress thought grimly. 'I don't know why I chose this night to go out.' Lip lifted in a half snarl for Alexx hated discomfort.
Streetlights glinted off hard amber-gold eyes. These eyes saw a male figure strode energetically up the dimly lit street. Alexx also noted that he wore sunglasses when it was so dark. 'Fascinating...' she purred softly, almost forgetting the cold. She watched the man pull open a door to the apartment complex and step inside. A sudden burst of wind reminded the tigress of her mission to find warmth. Her lips twitched up into a smirk. What could be more warming then to spend an evening with a rather unusual character?
Without further thought, Alexx began the change from tigress to lady. As the change ended, it revealed a tall slender body, flowing blond tresses, and icy blue eyes. This girl was wearing skinny jeans, with black flats. Unfortunately, her azure shirt revealed her well tanned stomach and arms to the brutal cold. With another involuntary shiver, Alexx hunched in the alley, waiting for the blast to quell.
As soon as the tempest passed, Alexx straightened up, took in a deep breath of frigid air, and ordered her thoughts neatly. Now it was time to play.
She stepped across the street, not bothering to look both ways, or any way at all. Pulling the apartment building's door open, a wave of heat, loaded with smells assaulted her. The strongest scent was cat. This scent may have smelled of cat, but it was not merely house cat. No, there was a slightly more feral edge to it, something that Alexx herself had often smelt. This scent smelled of big cat.
Alexx had slipped in so quietly, she would not have been noticed had it not been for the blast of cold air that followed her. She allowed the door to click shut behind her, and her chilling gaze swept over a girl huddled neatly on the steps. With one quick sweep Alexx discerned the thin clothing, the various assortment of jewelry, her slit arms, but most of all her look of utter hopelessness. Not that Alexx cared what this girl felt, nevertheless the sight of such despair unsettled the dignified girl.
Alexx had just entered as this tormented girl answered an apparent question, "Why are you going up, when our freedom begins?" The girl stood, brushing her blond hair back from her face. Instinctively, Alexx gauged her as a possible threat. Seeing her slim body caused the tigress to stiffen slightly. Her face was even more stunning, but the haunted look remained. Alexx was satisfied. For now, Noxx wasn't a threat to Alexx as a female.
Just then, her eyes were drawn to the mark that was permanently etched into the tender skin of Noxx's neck. Alexx's mind immediately flashed to her own tattoo, which was located on her lower back. Alexx suddenly wondered if her low-riding skinny jeans revealed her tattoo. Glancing in the reflection of Shanks' sunglasses, which reflected off of the glass door behind her, she could barely see her butt if she shifted slightly. A tiny bit of black peeped out from beneath her pants, but that was all.
Turning her attention back to the two in front of her, this time she assessed the male. Eyes softened to a soft sky blue, and a small smile lit on her pink lips. He was not bad. Not bad at all. Taking small, lady-like steps, the feline nearly glided over to Shank. "Why hello there," she purred in a soft undertone, "I hope I'm not interrupting anything." She ended, luminous eyes focused on Shanks.
