Aryll

Demographics
Controlled by: NPC, affiliated mostly with Nioca
Species: Guardian Shade.

Items and Abilities
Skills / Trades: Nioca's bodyguard. Powerful melee fighter, can fire elemental rays, telepathic with Nioca, and can teleport to Nioca's position at any time.
Items: None


Her first appearance was during the Time-Fracture Incident, where she came to the sane Nioca's aid. A Guardian Shade, she effectively acts as both a servant and a bodyguard. Aryll is intrinsically linked to Nioca; they can communicate telepathically, and she can instantly teleport to his position no matter where Nioca is.

Aryll has two forms: Her Normal Form, in which she appears as a young woman, passable for a live human, and her Combat Form, in which she looks like any other shade, save for her fiery orange tint. The only change in her abilities is that, in Normal Form, she's corporeal and lacks claws, but in Combat, she's transparent and possesses claws sharper than any normal shade. Her appearance will change to her combat form whenever she is under severe duress or simply desires an inhuman appearance or transparency.

Aryll is also far more powerful than an ordinary shade in combat. Aside from being able to withstand far more punishment, she also can dole out a considerably greater amount of damage with her claws. She also can fire rays of magical energy at a target from afar. These rays, upon impact, explode into whatever element of energy she chose: Fire, Ice, Acid1), Poison2), and General Magic Energy/Lightning are all possibilities. However, she does not know magic of any kind.

Aryll cannot be killed or dispelled permanently; though she'll be disrupted for a few hours after enough punishment, Aryll will eventually return to Nioca's side. Thus, the only way to permanently get rid of Aryll would be to kill Nioca and ensure that he remains dead.

Aryll also is intelligent, and thinks similarly to the way most intelligent humans think. She also can experience a human range of emotions.

People with a Guardian Shade tend to develop a close personal bond to the shade, and vice versa. Nioca and Aryll are no exception in this regard; they both think highly of each other, and think of each other as family.
