Appearance

THE FIRST THING I MET WAS A FLY WITH A BUZZ
AND A SKY WITH NO CLOUDS
THE HEAT WAS HOT AND THE GROUND WAS DRY
BUT THE AIR WAS FULL OF SOUND

Linea is an unusual creature, the size of a large dog, but dissimilar to any natural animal. A thick, soft fur coats her in three shades of violet-gray. Spindly forelimbs seem too long for her body, so that her shoulders always stand higher than her rump when upright. A lithe, almost catlike body displays speed and grace.

Her long, fluff-tipped tail is quite flexible and suited for helping her keep her balance. Each limb is tipped in thick fur, and rather than paws or hooves, these seem almost insectoid, with two claws not unlike those of a moth or a spider; these provide good grip on most surfaces. The eyes are very small, glowing with a chartreuse light; her sense of sight is not particularly strong. Her main sense, instead, is hearing: great, batlike ears have a surprising range of motion, and seem to constantly twitch and turn to catch the slightest sound. Her sense of smell is average.

Linea's mandibles open sideways as well as downward, splitting into a jaw to either side and a lower jaw beneath. These can open quite wide, and within, she is not unlike a hyena in dentition, though the teeth are each three-pointed like the premolars of a dog. The jaws are strong, closing back inward as well as upward, allowing her to easily crush into a pulp her choice diet: thick fruits and hard-shelled insects. Her teeth, blood, and muscles are all yellow-green, should they ever be exposed; her bones are black.

Quills along Linea's back provide some form of defense against attack from behind, though her ability to remain sharply alert and agile aid her in escape too. She is somewhat noticeable with the faint chartreuse glow that often seems to shimmer over her in darker lights, matching the glow of her eyes, the two-pronged antlers, and the strange light that seems to emanate from a translucent, hairless portion of her chest and ribs. These areas of her torso are not particularly vulnerable, with keratin coverings, but they do allow this strange glow to shine from within her body. She rather gives the impression of being some sort of firefly.

A chunk of rough Titanite, the same hue as the other chartreuse highlights on Linea's body, juts out of her leg bone just below the left hind knee.

Personality

AFTER THREE DAYS IN THE DESERT FUN
I WAS LOOKING AT A RIVER BED
THE STORY IT TOLD OF A RIVER THAT FLOWED
MADE ME SAD TO THINK IT WAS DEAD

A product of another world, Linea is as subservient and efficient as can be. Her primary purpose is to observe. She takes this to encompass her whole being, dedicated to fulfilling her role and nothing more.

With the caves raised anew, she's at a loss, and has turned back to her way of life of studying the uncontrollable patterns of the lessers and weather. Anything else asked of her is often given a confused stare before her actual consciousness kicks in. No need for one when you're simply taking in the world around you. Small talk, though, can be hard, as she barely wonders about things.

Words are given as factual as they can be. Bad news is surrounded by swathes of good, and her sentences are chosen to best please whoever she's talking to. Even with her status as an older Gembound, she easily defers to others in this way, readily bringing reports to the forefront of her mind as an ingrained practice for reporting back to her Overseer.

She takes pleasure in surrounding herself with her work, losing herself to the caves she traverses and the sounds of calls ringing through her ears. Storms are her favorite; fire her least, yet she's unflinching around the latter after liberal use of it in her past.

History

THE DESERT HAD TURN TO SEA
THERE WERE PLANTS AND BIRDS AND ROCKS AND THINGS
THERE WERE SAND AND HILLS AND RINGS
THE OCEAN IS A DESERT WITH ITS LIFE UNDERGROUND
AND A PERFECT DISGUISE ABOVE

In the past, Linea worked under Overseer Ogvraz, perceptive of his fire and reporting back with reports on Lesser Gembound populations and weather patterns. She is given an unusual amount of freedom to roam the caves, and she has been granted a name.

Unable to find Ogvraz, Linea has spent recent cycles continuing her work alone, preparing to report whenever she is called for again.
