Tell us about your Character.
Name: Lumen Jerno
Age: 36
Race: Rogue (Leviathan)
Gender: Female
Attunement: Chaos
Class: Crusher
Profession: Smuggler
What kind of Character are you looking to play?
I'm looking to play a character that is incredibly rambunctious and unchecked in chasing her desires. I want her to be a single target lockdown combatant that can allow others to get their hits in, or go toe to toe with stronger enemies.
Talk about your characters personality a little more in-depth. What are they like?
Lumen is a woman that takes what she wants. With an allure that blurs the line between charming and intimidating, she makes her moves to accomplish her goal. She has an insatiable lust for food, wealth, men, women, and to an extent, power. She shirks most responsibilities that she deems unnecessary, and as such, she only seeks to gain power as a means to an end. There are few things she deems precious, but she has rarely, if ever, shown any signs of what they may be. One could say she lives with enough excitement for two people, but it never seems enough for her.
Decide on 4 positive and negative personality traits. No more or less.
4 Positive Traits:
- Determined
- Eager
- Intimidating
- Sincere
4 Negative Traits:
- Greedy
- Foolhardy
- Tactless
- Stubborn
Describe your characters appearance in more detail.
Lumen is a mature rogue woman of rather imposing physical stature. Her features are deceptively gentle, clashing against her crude nature. She speaks endearingly but rarely has the best intentions. She stands around 5’ 11”, and keeps her body fit. Her skin tone is a lighter shade of indigo. She has 4 tentacles that form a tail, each with fins lining the top. Lumen’s black hair lazily falls a little above her cleavage, turning to sea-foam green on the inside, as well as on the tips. Being of the leviathan sub-species, she has functional gills located on both sides of her neck. Lumen’s eyes are yellow, and her pupils have a 4-point star shape. When she strains or uses her tentacles to fight, her sclera turn black. She wears a black open back tank top that gradually fades to the same green found in her hair at the bottom. The top has an inversely colored thorned rose, whose stem lines the shirt diagonally. She also wears tight black pants that flare out mildly at the ankle with a reverse v-cut, as well as flats for shoes.
Describe your characters role in combat and personal preference in fighting style (if any).
Lumen is very much a frontliner. She picks the biggest targets in a skirmish and uses her 4 overwhelmingly strong, octopus-like tentacles to restrain and/or crush whatever poor individual is within her grasp. Previous years of street fighting experience also make her an exceptional hand to hand combatant. What she lacks for in technique, she makes up for in raw power. Her mouth is lined with incredibly sharp teeth, capable of tearing through fabric, flesh, and leather alike when biting grasped prey. Her jaw can also unhinge, allowing for larger bites. Lumen has trouble against smaller, faster opponents that can avoid her tendrils. She also suffers from her own stubborn nature; frequently fixating on dismantling those that live a little bit too long.
Her species gives her some unique environmental strengths and weaknesses. In addition to her maneuverability in liquids, she is more resistant to water and ice based attacks. On the flipside, she is weaker to fire and heat in general.

Give a brief synopsis of your characters origin. This must include any important events that have occurred.
“Lumen...” the man stammered, his back pressed firmly against the alley wall. He had come to the tavern to drink his troubles away, not dive headfirst into more. The woman held an oppressive, suffocating aura as she leaned further in, enticed by the man’s pleas; a large tendril danced around his face, teasing him like he was some delectable snack.
“Is there something wrong, hm?~” Lumen took the half empty bottle out of the man’s hand and brought it to her lips. Once she downed the remainder of the ale, she nonchalantly tossed the bottle aside, letting it shatter against the pavement. “You sounded like you could use a break, what, with all ya’ were saying about your job~ and your kids,~” Lumen stopped her face inches from his — her voice a seductive hush that feasted on his weakening restraint. “And your wife~”
Her prey visibly flinched at the daggered words as she pressed against him. She was cruel, disgusting even… but a part of him felt she was right. Her hands continued wandering the man’s body, but he made no more objections. There was no point, she was already helping herself. His self-control, pride, and the sanctity of his marriage, all snatched away in the blink of an eye by her insatiable desires.
And so Lumen indulged herself as she had countless nights before. Getting wasted on nearly all of life’s boundless pleasures. Moving from place to place with superficial attachments... All to fill an abysmal, incurable void.
Lumen’s parents passed away from unknown circumstances early in her childhood, leaving her to an orphanage in Recudor. Afflicted with congenital infertility, Lumen felt the chance for a normal life was nigh impossible. Failing to make any lasting relationships in adolescence, and incapable of having a family of her own, Lumen began to fulfill the desires of the only consistent person in her life. Herself.
At the age of 18, she left the orphanage having not been adopted. Living an inch away from complete homelessness, she took on any proposition that paid, or at least put a roof over her head and food in her stomach. At first she was running simple errands or cleaning, but she quickly found out how valuable her body was and switched to a more lucrative service. Her ‘discontent’ with her situation reached a boiling point in terms of frustration after the first year however. She was making decent money, but she wasn't setting the terms. Lumen started asking her clients questions about their prolific hobbies. She quickly discovered a new employment venture, and used her unique persuasiveness to enter an underground Recudor fight club. It was the next 6 years that she spent there, that taught the Leviathan how to not only survive.
Once Lumen departed the cage matches, she traveled Gaea as muscle for hire. In return for work, she was frequently supplied with money and whatever else she could haggle from her employers. She’s dealt with city guards, bounty hunters, angry drunks, even a run-in with a knight of the Royal Order… who she promptly fled from following a brief scuffle. Having blown through her remaining funds while laying low, Lumen found herself almost back to where she started, at least situationally. She ultimately decided to return to her previous line of work; cheating, stealing, crushing, and coercing her way through Gaea once again.
What kind of gear would you like your Character to start out with?[/font]
- 3 gold
- Messenger bag
- Falsified identification documents
- Drinking container filled with her favorite booze
- Beautification items
- Basic living supplies
Finally; What else, if anything, can you tell us about your Character?
Lumen’s tendrils are the source of her 10 might. They can also reach a length of 10 feet when fully extended. Her own physical prowess is above normal (Around a 5), but not nearly as strong as the tentacles themselves. Her tentacles are essentially octopus tentacles in function. The best way to think of Lumen’s fighting style, is to look at the Pirates of the Caribbean Kraken scene (Stop snickering lol) and how it grips, then capsizes ships. Like real octopus limbs, they will regrow if an amputation occurs. However there is a lengthy recovery period. That time frame can be adjusted for balance purposes.
If you have any questions or need clarification, please let me know!
