[style=width: 400px; font: 12px open sans condensed;serif; color: #e4be66;text-align:justify; background-color: #a65930]APPEARANCE |Ezra is not known for being big, bulky or overly muscular…actually the woman stands 5’6 inches tall, and weighs a whopping of 130 pounds making her pretty average. Hey body is lean, with a great amount of muscle build making her fit and healthy. Although, despite her size Ezra can pack one hell of a punch. Many years dedicated to combat training, and intense physical training has kept the woman in a strong enough condition to take down many men. Various parts of her body has scars from past battles, but the ones that are along her back seem to be the longest with one stretching down from her shoulder to the slip of her back. Being once a lady, and still apart of the royal family, she keeps up with hygiene everyday making her have a clean appearance. When it came to body height, and build she tended to take after her father, but she looks a lot like her mother. She has her mother’s bright green hair and eyes, or so her father had told her. When she was younger she used to wear it long, but now she has cut it short to her shoulders so it would not get in the way. For clothes she tends to try to stay true to her Sisk heritage wearing organic, nature based clothing in her free time, but mainly sticking to her uniform. In addition she likes to wear a pair of red goggles, but keeps them on the top of her head. Because her father was of royal blood she does bear his royal mark of a raven in between her shoulder blades.
PERSONALITY |
Positive~
Honorable- Ezra believes honor is something that is hard to find in people, and many don’t believe much in it anymore. Oh look you slept with your maid behind your wife’s back or you chopped down a man for doing an innocent deed you didn’t like…Big deal. Actually, to the woman honor is a code she has forced herself to live by. Since she left her parents she has trained herself to be honest, fair, and respectful to others even if they are a mere pig farmer. Ezra believes that every man and woman must have a good center with honor right in the middle of it. If you are dishonorable then you are a piece of filth in her eyes, and not worth a shit. It is something the woman takes very seriously, and with her father being a twisted man with few morals the lady has made a point to be the exact opposite.
Strategic- Ezra is not the most frightening person on earth, but she makes up for it with a sharp mind. Since she was a little girl Ez has been playing chess, reading riddles, puzzles, anything that would make her really sit down and think. Now that she is older she still challenges her friends to a game of chess every once in a while, but other than that she is found burying her face in books about the art of battle, past wars, other strategists, and various styles of combat. Since she is a woman Ezra feels that she is at a disadvantage because of the slightly sexist ways in the kingdom and Royal Guard so she tries to make up for it with knowledge. Also, strategy is just fun to her, and she believes there is a strategy to everything from diplomatic debates, leading troops, fighting, and even flirting.
Loyal- Her loyalty is equivalent to that of a dog, if not more, but it is something that must be earned. Ezra has issues trusting people because growing up she could hardly trust the people who put her into this world. Although, she still remains loyal to someone even if she does not wholly trust them. For her higher ranked officers in the Royal Guard she obeys them instantly as long as they aren’t ordering innocent people’s heads on a stick. For those lucky few who have manage to gain her trust gain her full protection, and word. If it came down to it the woman would give her life for you, and not hesitate to take any sword or bullet. If caught by the enemy, and tortured until she squeals….well you might as well just kill her for she won’t say a damn word. Loyalty is one of her strongest traits, and is something she takes to heart.
Motherly/Protective- The reason why Ezra is called Mother Nature by her troops is because she tends to have a softer side that is very rare to see. Usually the girl is tough skinned or vulgar, but if one of her men had been hurt after battle she’d worry, and fuss over him like he was her own child. While growing up part of her life in an orphanage with younger children she had adopted a protective, nurturing trait while watching over the other kids. To Ez her troops are her children that she must work hard to train, and lead them safely. She understands that most men die in battle, but she will not sleep the night after to grieve for their loss. The strongest motivation that keeps the woman fighting is the desire to protect her people.
Courageous- Well if you’re going to fight crime, or protect the kingdom you’re going to need some balls. Ezra is a very daring girl, and on the outside people might assume she is fearless. Unfortunately fearless and courage don’t go hand in hand like people think. Ezra is scared shit of making a wrong move, fighting an opponent, confronting her superiors, and having her men hurt. Yet, the woman faces it while keep on pushing forward. The officer trusts her gut, and if it says to stand up to something frightening then she’s just got to do it. Ezra obtains her courage by facing her fears, and using her wit to get her through.
Negative:
Sarcastic- Sarcasm just gushes out Ezra’s mouth like a waterfall. It’s a terrible habit, and most of the time half the crap she says she does not realize its sarcasm. Almost like a natural language, the woman throws her sharp tongue where ever she sees a point needs to be made. It’s a curse, but it usually is controlled around the Royal family or the First command….sometimes...
Hot tempered- Ezra may be a woman, but her nature is far from calm, and lady-like. Normally she enjoys joking around, but the moment you cross the line or show disrespect she will cut off your ass and mount it on her mantle…..verbally. Obviously she can’t go around cutting off people’s bums, but if she had her way she would do it without hesitation. Even the slightest remarks can set the woman off on a rampant rage with objects flying or breaking. Don’t piss her off…Hell hath no fury like a woman’s scorn.
Vulgar- She grew up in a royal house, but developed one hell of a colorful vocabulary. Due to her father swearing at home when she was younger, Ez developed a sailor’s mouth that just continued to grow once she entered into the Royal Guard. Although, in front of superiors she tries her best to keep her vulgarity at a minimum…..tries… But with her fellow officers she’s got a nasty mouth that no soap can clean.
Violent- With a hot temper, and a knack for starting fights Ezra tends to be a little on the violent side. When facing others in combat she tends to just let all her bottled up emotions fly out resulting in her trying to violently strike her opponent. Often times when she is on a rampage she flings her fists at random objects to try not to hit others, but mistakes happen and fights start. When she was a teenager living under her parents roof she would break vases, or punch walls when she got upset. The cause of this was not due to abuse, but the fact that her father’s wife hated her because her real mother was a whore. Her father’s wife used to tease her about it when she was younger, sending her into violent fits of rage.
Mistrusting/Guarded- Ezra has the hardest time trusting others because she tends to surround herself with a mental barrier. The less people knew about her inner emotions the less she got hurt. To be a bastard child was bad, and to come out of the womb of a prostitute was worse. She knew she could never change that fact, but to her it is so much easier trying to be emotionless about it than trying to make others understand the inner pain it causes. So, Ezra keeps up her guard with everyone around her, trusting no one, letting no one in to know the inner workings of her mind, and never putting herself in a state of vulnerability.

[style=width: 400px; font: 12px open sans condensed;serif; color: #e4be66;text-align:justify; background-color: #a65930]WEAPON | Guan Dao: Ezra uses a type of metal pole weapon that has a heavy blade with a spike at the back, and a notch at the spike’s upper base used to catch an opponent’s weapon. The blade it’s self is made of steel colored black with intricate green deigns carved into the blade. The pole is 6 feet long, dark green, and also carved into with different designs. At the opposite end of the pole is a metal counterweight with a sharp tip used to balance the weapon. This was a gift to her from her first combat instructor, and Ezra calls it Yan Yue (Reclining moon. When paired with her metal manipulation she can make the pole longer or the blade larger.
WEAPON LEVEL | level 1
SPECIAL ABILITY | Metal Manipulation- With this Ezra can control metals such as steel (steel is harder because parts of it is nonmetal), copper, iron, and anything that is of metal property. The girl can turn the metal into liquid, call it to her like a magnet, or mold it into another shape. Although, to make this power work she has to see the target, and use her hands in addition with her mind to bend the metal or liquefy it. When liquefied it only stays a liquid for a couple minutes before hardening again. If the woman loses concentration when bending the metal will stop moving immediately. Also, she can only manipulate with the amount that she has to work with, for example she cannot turn a penny into a sword, but can turn a sword into an Axe that is the same size as that sword. +Can be used once every two posts.
Earth Creationism- With this power Ez can create almost anything using the earth around her. This power is activated by her skin touching the earth whether it is her hands or her feet, and her mind has to picture what she wants the earth to do. With this she could create shield made of stone, or even create spires emerging from the ground. Anything she creates is made from the earth itself and the larger the object the more energy it takes to make it. For example if Ezra wanted to create a large wall or create multiple spire or pillars from the ground it would absorb almost all of her energy leaving her with dizzy spells, fatigue, and possibly fainting. Smaller manipulations (Like small shields) can be once every two turns, skin must be touching the earth, and bigger manipulations like multiple spires or walls can be used once every four turns, her skin must be touching the earth, and depletes health/energy. ~Kudo’s to Ez for giving me this idea!~
ARMOR | LEVEL 1 / metal.

[style=width: 400px; font: 12px open sans condensed;serif; color: #e4be66;text-align:justify; background-color: #a65930]INVENTORY | Ezra likes to keep her pole weapon on her at all times as well as a pair of daggers, and a necklace with a rose charm attached to it for good luck....its the only girly thing she owns.

[style=width: 400px; font: 12px open sans condensed;serif; color: #e4be66;text-align:justify; background-color: #a65930]There once was a duke who had blood shared with the royal family, and very much admired the king’s wicked ways of torture or killings. He was very wealthy with a beautiful young wife that would give him many heirs…except…she didn’t. The duke tried many times to get his duchess pregnant, but alas she had no children. At first before it was discovered that his wife was infertile, the duke was happy enough being with his beautiful wife. Unfortunately, after the failed attempts for the wife to birth a son, the duke began sleeping around the underground brothels. At one point his child was finally born, but not from his wife. Instead, a Sisk prostitute had given birth to his daughter and named her Ezra. Ezra was a healthy baby, yet her mother did not want to keep her for many underground prostitutes could hardly afford to take care of a child. So Ezra was taken to an orphanage, and kept there until the age of ten. While at the house of lost children the girl grew up pretty happily with her own friends to play with, and tried her best to look after the younger children. One of her favorite games there was to bash wooden sticks with the other boys, pretending to be a brave knight that saves the princess, or she liked to think a prince. The staff there was nice, and even though she wore rags she was content with her life as an orphan. Eventually after thinking about her daughter, the mother had decided to write a note to the duke informing him that she gave birth to his child, and where it was at. God knows why she took ten years to get around to telling him, but she did. Hoping that it was a boy the duke went to the orphanage to ask for Ezra, but denied her being his once he saw that she was a girl. Although, once a royal mark was shown to the Duke he could not deny that it was his child. He could have still left her, but everyone in the kingdom talks, and if it was found that the duke had abandoned his own child then he’d have to face worse gossip than him having a child by a brothel wench. Then when Ezra was ten she was taken in to live with her father and his wife inside the castle. At first it was amazing to change from sharing a bed with her friends at the orphanage to having a giant king-sized bed of her own. The maids were kind to her, bringing her nice dresses of silk with intricate embroidery from her father, and her meals grew larger then small portions of bread and cheese. While growing up she played with the other children in the castle, but since she was decided to be the heir to duchess her training was to start when she hit the age of fifteen. Once she was old enough to learn royal customs it all began going downhill from there. Before she had become fifteen she never saw her father’s wife unless certain occasions called for them to be together. Now, sadly, she was forced to take classes from her on what she was expected to do once she was a duchess. The wife tormented Ezra in her lessons, saying,” Such a stupid girl, how can a whores daughter call herself a duchess? Do you know what a whore is, girl? One day I just might show you.” Ezra never forgot the endless sneering and the pure hatred in the woman’s eyes when she looked at her. The girl found no peace until she was required to learn a bit of swordplay for it was accustomed that all royal members learn it. Her master was a foreign man, and hardly spoke a lick of her language, but he was a great teacher, and told her stories of valiant men that rushed into battle without fear, or fought for the people of the kingdom with honor. The more Ezra practiced, the more she fell in love with wielding weapons, and fighting. One night while she was practicing with her pole weapon her instructor gave her for her nineteenth birthday, the duchess had summoned her. From there the woman called her to follow to her father’s chambers, but made her stand right outside the door to listen. Ezra could have disobeyed, but she had grown so accustomed to listening to the wife’s commands that she did not dare to move. Instead she painfully stood there while listening to what sounded like a woman being beaten, and crying. It was a moment in her life she was never going to forget….the sound of sobbing, and cries where etched into her brain…tormenting her for many years. After a moment the door opened, and a bruised woman ran out with her father following with a stern look on his face. He only ordered her to her room, and had never mentioned the incident to her like it had never happened. Ezra hated her life after that, but then her father’s wife became pregnant with a son. The girl was no longer the heir, and her father didn’t care when she decided to move in with her sword fighting instructor to train harder. After a year of training Ezra applied to the Royal Guard, and worked her way up for five years. The treatment from her father’s wife and especially her father made her vow to live an honorable, and a Just life like her instructor had taught her instead of one filled with wickedness. [/style]
