What are you looking for in a slave / slaver Role-play: Character development, primarily. I am eventually seeking to have her turned, through the course of long term roleplay into a demon (see notes).

What are your allowances for your character:
Refused: Death, Severe mutilation (ie, limb removal), NC sex.
Most other things are negotiable; aka, it is polite to ask.
IC actions = IC consequences.

Long Term/Short Term: Long-term for ownership and rentals preferred. I really want her to get some allies going, and constant rentals. Short-term is ok too, as any encounter adds to her continuous story.

General Information
Character Description:
Singapura pedigree; long straight hair the colour of charcoal framed an angular face with expressive golden eyes while those large ears flicked and perked accordingly to her surroundings. Pale faded golden ivory fur with a soft warm look, ticked with sepia brown-tawny; short and silky with slight barring stripes on her forearms, lower legs and tailtip. An old pomegranate necklace hung around her neck; forbidden fruit, a symbol of fertility and prosperity - one denied, one a wish. A floor-length cotton and gauze kebaya was worn; traditional attire. Snug to her throat, was a worn old leather collar. Shrewd in mind, a businesswoman at heart; bankrupt, in debt, enslaved.

Notes:
* Due to her ethnicity, regardless of the type of demon that turns her, she will become a Hantu demon. Definition: A Hantu demon is a legendary evil spirit or demon in Philippine mythology. They are notorious in the Philippines for allegedly possessing people and driving them insane.This creature is said to have a power to possess people or animals and kill their souls to become the creature that he/she possessed. Hantu Pusaka are those specifically from Malaysian culture, of which Singapore is influenced.
