Ruler Information


General Information

Name: Danae
Pronunciation: DAN'-ay-ee
Name Meaning: In Greek myth Danaë was a princess of Argos and the mother of Perseus by Zeus, who came to her in the form of a shower of gold. In today's translation, 'Danae' would mean 'parched'.
Nickname: None, though many seem to shorten her name to 'DAN-ay' and merely leave off the ending. She isn't pleased about it, but makes no fuss.
Gender: Femme
Breed: Dog; Sloughi/Greyhound x Rhodesian Ridgeback
Current Age: 4 years
Personality:
"She was dominant but persuasive, her thoughts both childish and horribly clever.
She had idealism that no demon could ever imagine, desires that would make even
the hardest of us tremble with surprise. She appeared so innocent, so virgin to
any wrong-doing, that I was sure she was bluffing. But then she grinned toothily
at me, winking a vibrant violet eye, and my bravery and doubts in her vanished like
spiders in the night. I could only guess the number of knives she hid in her boots
and up her skirts, and I was sure she knew better than anyone how to use them."

Unique, and with a flourish of the strange, Danae brings countenance to the idealism of the artistic woman. She is never the same person twice, her moods as inconstant and spontaneous as a thunderstorm. A novel character, plagued by a touch of wanderlust, she finds making decisions both trifling and unnecessary, often maneuvering situations so expertly that the need for choices never arises. True to her species she has a largely inquisitive nature, and commonly follows this sense of curiosity quite willingly. She also has a great loathing for the trite and unexceptional, sometimes simply sauntering abruptly off if she finds an individual particularly lacking in flare or quirk. She has a profound adoration for color and things pleasing to the eye, and being a nimble thief and silver-tongued liar, she'll often take whatever treasures there are to be had, no matter the owner. She will go to any lengths to satiate her hunger for the uncommon, and though she does occasionally make jabs at being particularly and ruthlessly difficult to relate to, she is a manipulator at heart.

Brutality and harshness are not Danae's way. She acts rashly, too true, but her actions always have vague plan and half-formed idealism of outcome. Death is not a game in which she plays often, as she finds it cowardly to simply off your enemies, rather than prove you to be the greater creature. Her temper is mild and rather difficult to arouse, as she is often in the practice of instigating it in others. Her anger is fleeting, and grudges are scarce and few. She finds that life is a thrill if you act on emotional impulse, but it can lead to dire, highly unpleasant consequences, and is quite careful about how she conducts her angst when and if it arises. She prefers settling disputes in games of wit and daring rather than brutal throw downs, as they often both turn out badly, as she is quick but small, and they have become boring for her since early childhood. This, however, does not name her useless in the field of physical combat. She can dance with tooth and nail and swift and deftly as any swordsman, using unpredictability and cunning tact to size the weaknesses of her opponent.

Still, Danae is a gypsy is every aspect of the word, and her greatest desire is to gather a band of the odd and useful to cross Hell and spread anarchy and chaos wherever they can. She has dipped her finger into almost every art you can name, and found success in just as many. Though Danae's greatest flaw is perhaps her habitual dishonesty, it is a more dire tool than you can imagine. Danae's understanding of psyche outmatches many of her age and experience. She would sooner slip a knife between your ribs than tell you the full and honest truth.


Physical Features

Appearance:
"She was young, with dazzling, mischievous eyes and a countenance of
the strangest kind. Her grins were fleeting, touched with a nefarious
curve. I was careful of her tricks, but entranced by her odd charisma.
It seemed that with every devilish word, every fluid movement, a
ribbon of smoke followed, dripping from her lips with velveteen ease.
I never doubted that, despite her seemingly fragile curves and fox-like
features, she could do away with me in an instant, if she so chose."

With a stride that could break any dancer's heart, and the smooth, melodic voice of an elven princess kissed with a faint accent of the French, Danae sways through life with an air of both witty realism and profound eccentricity. Her very semblance radiates an atmosphere of the fantastic. Unusual she may be, but harsh to the gaze of an onlooker, she is anything but. Danae's eyes, varnished a brilliant, flamboyant violet, clash wildly with the lush ebony of her upper pelt. This precise splash of onyx drips articulately into a soft, modest undertone of grey, which climbs up her chest and coats her belly in gentle, short curls. She is painted much like any other, with soft lines of umber brown and somber grey eating its way persuasively into the dominance of the black coal, much like how a sunflower seeps between cracks in a concrete sidewalk.

Her build, however, highly commemorates the sleekness of a grown mother fox, her strong legs and slender upper body fit for quick, graceful movement and swift activity. She is more petite than many of her kin, with sharp, defined facial features and a quite lucid, cunning grin, as if she knows more than she lets on. She carries an extremely robust presence, both in looks and personality. Despite being very striking at first glance, there is a certain gentle femininity about Danae that is both captivating and intimidating, and her charm is clear in both her attitude and mannerisms.

It is best not to take this creature for surface value. Her tricks and traps are many and formidable.

Height: 24'' at the shoulder
Weight: 65 lbs
Scars/Markings: None
Form: Her ample chest blossoms forth from her thin waist into a greyhound plunge, curving up to meet her finely sculptured neck in smooth perfection. Demure beauty, swan-borne into the wild where she might wander beneath the Artemis moon naked- crouching beneath willows and cattails and all the while: singing of her Assiah lost and found. Her body is that of a dancer as toned muscles ripple beneath her bare satin skin, adding a defined beauty to her outline whenever and wherever she moves. There is strength in those legs, fueled with lion-hearted bloodlines and softened with just a dash of grace.


Family/Social Circle

Dame: Adelaide; a weak woman of too soft flesh and unimaginable confusion.
Sire: A man who dares to carry the alias 'Lucifer'. No one knows his true name.
Brothers: None is known.
Sisters: Jeroldine; half sister
Mate: None
Interest: None
Pups: None


History

Any other History:
"It wasn't hard to imagine how this most devilish of damsels had landed herself
in the Kingdom of the Damned. Her lies were spectacular, astounding, and for each
tale she wove, a thousand more were waiting for the next unlucky fool to stumble
upon this elvish charlatan. She would be a fitting jester for the devil himself,
a witty mouse to entertain the restful reptilian cat. How I pitied her, for this,
for surely they'd find her. And she'd just lie through her sharp little teeth,
the poor fool."

Always the wicked liar, you will never hear the same story twice from Danae's sultry, smirking lips. Even on pain of death she'd give you a false name, a fabricated history, and a dagger between the eyes to boot. Her tales of her life are always highly extravagant and riddled with the most perilous of feats and magnificent of events. Her version of her deathday is always quite marvelous, laced with brilliance and wickedness. Danae's current alias is likely one of her own invention.
