Meera (Folktale) -- unowned slave.

From the writings of the guard that processed her upon arrival--

"Of the new slaves we received today, one stood out as both unique and considerably dangerous. According to the sailors that sold it to the establishment it was captured off of a cove that borders our sea and another, several days travel from here. They had kept it from drying off for fear of killing it, ignorant of the extent of its abilities, and brought it to us bound and weak with starvation. The slave was both dirty and bloody--remnants from its capture, possibly. Once in our care the slave was bathed, groomed, and clothed in a linen shift, as is procedure. Afterwards, we let it dry and waited to see if any change would occur. Upon being completely dried, a dramatic transformation took place--its gills and scales receded into its body and its tail shortened and split off into human legs. The slave's teeth and nails, which had previously been too sharp to leave as they were, also became shorter and more dull, though we were informed that one of the sailors were scratched during travel and became very ill, so we have shackled the slave's arms behind its back as a precaution. Despite the possible loss of appeal to potential renters and buyers, we thought it would be best to keep the slave in this form for safety reasons and placed her in one of the common pens with the other slaves."

OOC Info/Notes

Availability: If I'm on, I most likely want to roleplay unless stated otherwise! Just shoot me a whisper or BOLD my name in a post. :)

What are you looking for in a slave / slaver Roleplay: Well, I would really like for there to be some training done with this slave, but also for someone that's going to rent her a few times, first--discover her talents, abilities, realize that she's more of an animal or fae creature than a human, which she is NOT. I'd like someone that would actually USE her for those talents. She can be very vicious, but I imagine if you give her something to do and feed her well enough, she'd at least not try to, uh, eat the hand that feeds her, so to speak. She CAN be trained. As a note, she is less likely to attack females than males, but this is due to her nature and what she is, not her sexuality. I don't want her to just be beaten because she disobeys, there needs to be a reason for what goes on in the roleplay, a plot. As for what she can do, well--she can dive for treasure, and she cries precious gemstones--and there are other things that can be done with those gems or even with her tears, her blood, and and and... There's a lot that she can be used for, that can be useful.


What are your allowances for your character: Mostly no consent, but I would rather you tell me if you're going to try to maim her, or kill her, or rape her--I don't go for rape, sorry.

Long Term/Short Term: Long term or short term. Eventually, I'd like to build up a long term plot, however.


General Information

Character Description: From her Furcadia description:

She is petitely made, this woman, with fair skin and a smattering of freckles across her shoulders and cheeks, her belly and knees, that glint like gold dust in the light. She has been dried and shackled, the hooks and baubles taken from her hair, and clothed in a shift made of eggshell colored linen. Her eyes are hard chips of gold, wary of the world around her, and her hair is a tangled mass of hot sunlight that refuses taming, but lays instead where it will, with defiant curls and waves. Though human, there is something decidedly strange about the woman--it is in her walk, her voice, her words. She wears the smell of the sea like a lover's perfume, and hangs its colored gifts around her neck where there are faint, red scars one atop the other. An oddity, or a treasure?

A note was tacked on the side of this slave's papers.
After racing a few slaves on the beach, this one gave mixed results. She was mouthy and hostile towards another slave and a guard, but forfeit her chance at winning to help another. With some training to get a hold of her tongue and her temper, she seems to have potential as a rather hardy slave down the road.... Very energetic and athletic.
