[/div]

[div class=personal]PERSONAL
Personality: Aerlia is a glass half full with plenty of space for sunshine and bubbles kind of person. She loves to tease (in the poke-fun kind of way but no money back guarantees if you misunderstand it for flirting ) and can be a rather direct person when it comes to voicing out opinions, if she thinks there is an issue worth speaking out about. Also a mobile 'random topic chatterbox' if in the company of people she is fond of. A careful observer with a quick mind, she can assess almost any environment and come up with possible solutions/options quicker than most, (if she is not distracted by talking that is). However, she can be rather indecisive and struggles with decision making especially in crucial moments when all options seem equal in weight. As such, without someone to back her, she could be a liability to herself and those around her during those 'frozen into inaction' moments. It is also possible that her light-hearted vivacious character is her way of coping with the tremendous loss of her father and the other angels whom she had seen as part of her family; a front to mask her deepest scarrings. On rare occasions, she can be seen staring off into space with a wide-eyed almost terrified look on her face, as if reliving a traumatic memory.

Likes: Singing (or at least, attempting to). You may want to rethink the meaning of 'voice of an angel'.
Using her vivid green eyes to stare into the souls of mortals turning them into a clumsy bumbling mess.
Observing said mortals walk into a lamppost.
Just observing mortals in general. They're so impulsive and impatient it's funny.
Daydreaming that she'd wake up one day and everything would be okay.
Cooking mortal food (it's dreadful).
Dark chocolate.
Gummy bears (A young mortal child she met at the park offered her the peculiar sweet as payment when Aerlia healed a cut he suffered after crashing off his bike. Such direct usage of her powers on mortals, though arguably illegal, was also arguably accidental. The boy told her that his mother usually blew on the affected area and the pain would go away. Well, Aerlia did, and the pain went away. So... yay?)

Fear(s): Nightmares. The feeling of being lost - Not as in being in an unknown location, but without hope and not knowing what to do.
Biography: Aerlia has never fought the Wretched before, or known a life of battle. Born towards the end of the Celestial War, Lia never knew her mother as she was not old enough to remember anything when her mother fell in battle. Atharius Mikhael had always been reluctant to talk about Arabel, her mother, and after years of pestering him to no avail, she finally gave up and let the matter rest.

Lia was part of the group of Iluman charged to watch over the Earth. When the mortals gradually turned away from the Heavens, and the angels shut the doors, the Iluman under the leadership of the Archangel Mikhael chose to remain close to the mortal realm. They took turns keeping guard, a small group lived in The House while the rest slept in the Tribunal Vaults until such time as they are awoken to begin their cycle. It was during Aerlia's watch when the fated attack on The House happened.

She has brief recollections of memories she knew didn't happen in her current lifetime, but of a distant place and a certain someone. However, she has no face nor voice to attribute to that person. Even the very brief flashbacks often evoked a mixture of both positive and negative feelings, that brings more questions than answers them. These moments are very rare, and she ignores it for the most part.

Significant Life Events:

Entwined Threads
Lia spent a long time in mourning, after the desecration of The House. She lived on the brink of death, neglecting to care for herself. Her heart had been shattered, and she'd never felt so alone in all her long years of living. She didn't know if she slept or cried for a hundred years, drifting in and out of consciousness, lost and without hope. She didn't know what to do, and a part of her wished to end her miserable existence. But in some twisted sense of selflessness and self-inflicted torment, she saw that as the easy way out. She didn't deserve it. She had to continue suffering for all eternity. It was her only penance for not being there when those she loved were wrenched from her grasp. Thus Lia kept herself breathing, though she was anything but alive. The years flew by and she wasted away, lying where her father drew his last breath, a flower wilting by a grave.

Then one day, a day just like any other, she felt a stirring. A minute shift in the depths of her soul. She'd forgotten who she was by then, numbed by the torture of being unliving for ages, drifting in the void of nothingness. So the sudden feeling, if indeed it could be called that, was like a spark of light in a fathomless dark, a flash of colour in endless grey. She felt herself withdraw from it at first, afraid that the iridescent colour might taint her. She observed it from a distance, curious, for there was nothing like it that she'd ever seen. She drifted closer. Then reached out, and touched it. It felt warm, cradled in the palm of her hands. Then all of a sudden, it disappeared into her palms. A brief illumination shining out from beneath skin as it traveled inexorably to the core of her being. She panicked. Her world grew brighter and brighter, the dark muted grey beaten back by an unknown source of light. Blinding light, scorching at her fragile skin. She screamed, but there was no sound. It grew brighter still, if at all that was possible. A flash. Then she felt her heart beat again.

An eyelid laboriously cracked open, as the dust and dirt of eons shifted. Blood flowed through her veins, a flush of pink under a once pallid squalor as stone turned to flesh. Aerlia sat up, blinking at her surroundings. Grass and low bushes. Stone... Bricks... Buildings... .. . Mortal... She was in the land of mortals. Then she felt the stirring again. The light, it was inside her. A gentle nudge. Prodding at her consciousness, like a voiceless entity. It did not speak with words, but yet she knew what it bade.

Move... Walk.

She stood up. Too fast. She fell to the ground, knees scraping against the dirt and pebbles. Her head lolled to one side, thudding against the cold dirt. Pain. I feel... pain. Her knees were weak, as if they were nothing more than stilts wrapped in skin.

Get up... Walk.

She tried again. And again she stumbled back on her knees, though this time, she managed to prop herself up with her hands. There was smooth stone to the side. A wall. She crawled over. Dug her fingers into its grainy surface. Nails splintered. It hurts.

Get up... Move. She gritted her teeth, and pulled herself to her feet.

She didn't know where she was, or how long she had been walking. There was a cold gentle breeze, sweeping the remnants of autumn leaves over the urban road. The occasional tree was bare, beginning of winter perhaps. Houses lined both sides of the street. Lights peaked out from curtained windows, warm and inviting.

Stop... It bade. She stopped. A young couple jogging by gave her a sidelong glance. Pity reflected in their eyes. She wondered why.

Wait...

She waited obediently. There was nothing else for her to do anyway.

Then a woman appeared around the corner. Dressed in warm clothing and pushing a stroller. She was cooing over her child, swathed in cloths. Mother and child drew nearer, oblivious to her standing right in the middle of the walkway until she all but bumped into Lia.

"Oh-!! Whoops, I'm so sorry! I didn't see you there-" The woman glanced up and immediately her apologetic look changed into one of pity. She had the kindest eyes ever, it reminded her of someone. She couldn't remember who.

"I..." the woman glanced at her child, then back at Aerlia. "You, you must be hungry..."

Hungry..? Why?

"Here." She'd rummaged through her shoulder pack and fished out a wrapped package. A strange yet pleasant smell wafted into the air. It made Aerlia's stomach rumble. "Take it." The lady offered the package towards her, nodding with an encouraging smile. Lia starred blankly at the package for a moment longer, before tired arms reached out to gingerly accept the gift. She stood there dumbfounded for a moment, before realizing that she was blocking the way. Aerlia stepped to the side.

"Thank you." The lady smiled, warm and filled with care. She rearranged her belongings and began moving away. Something made her Aerlia glance down into the stroller. A pair of earthy brown eyes stared back at her. The spark within her kindled into a flame.

Live.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Name: Christian Young
Soul Name: Eos Lucilius (translated as "Morning Light")
Nickname(s): ChrisChris
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Bondmate: Aerlia Michaels/ Aerliariel sol' Arae'nal
Role: Warlock
Element: Life

APPEARANCE
Hair Style: A simple undercut with the sides not being too short. The hair on top of his head is gelled back most of the time to prevent it from being a mess. His facial hair is often kept as a somewhat patchy five o'clock shadow since he likes to keep it short. Long beards are annoying from his perspective and remind him of his father.
Hair Color: Light, hazelnut brown.
Eye Color: Contrary to his hair color, a dark brown.
Skin Color: A mix of bronzed and white, depending on the season given he often goes out to swim in summer.
Height: 6'3 (190cm)
Body Type: Well built with broad shoulders and defined muscles. However, he is not a walking mountain of muscles.
Other Distinguishing Characteristics: A small mole beneath his right eye and a barely visible cut scar around his bottom lip at the left side.
Picture:
1551050582762.png
Common Outfits: Blue jeans, white-black sneakers, and a grey shirt, when he wants to wear something casual outside of work. During winter he often wears a black coat on some cheap suit, he once bought for his last prom, but still uses until today everytime he teaches in front of a class. Even if it had to be properly fixed a few times by a tailor, because he simply doesn't want to throw it away and buy a new one. A lucky charm maybe?

PERSONAL
Personality: Christian can be best described as a lazy, happy-go-lucky guy, who certainly can work hard, but he often lacks the motivation to do so. He has the problem of losing interest or motivation for something the moment he is being forced or feels pressured to do so. When this is the case, he only does what teachers in school would often refer to as the minimum principle. Getting the best possible result with the least effort. However, when he truly finds passion or a genuine need to do something, then he pursues it freely and with dedication. In his case, it would be sports and teaching history. Latter was something he found a love for when he was about to finish school. In the last months of high school, a teacher sparked in him the ember of curiosity for the past. Thus, making him a nerd for this subject in general.

Past the facade of nerdiness for history and his laziness, Christian can be a kind-hearted person and seems very protective of those he holds dear. He stands up for what he believes to be right, not directly with violence but with words, as he avoids conflict on purpose. He himself often likes to say, that he "doesn't want to stand and watch history repeat itself", a quote he copied from one of the textbooks he read while attending college as a student, while now he tries to seem like a responsible and genuine person in front of his students.

Biography: Living in a major big city, life wasn't always fairly easy. But nonetheless, Chris' family was able to live a relatively normal life up to a certain point. He himself was born as the first child of four. The first and only son, while the three siblings after him were only girls. The oldest of his sisters, Camilia, is 4 years younger than him. The third oldest child of the Young family is Maria, who is 8 years younger than Chris and his youngest sister is a good 12 years younger than him. Kids were always expensive, no matter the era, but for Chris' family, it got worse and worse after his father lost his job. From then on, things went further down south. Their car broke down, the dishwasher and the red numbers grew into the 5 digits, steadily increasing with each month. Soon after that, Chris' father bailed out and went to look for a life somewhere else. Leaving behind an indebted family with no real income.

During this period Chris took up part-time jobs next to school and next to college later on. He worked on weekends and into late nights, just like his oldest sister would later on and his mother did all the time. Until today Chris does not really know how to feel about what happened back then. For one, it made him the person he is today. On the other side, he feels ashamed of it, because during this period he also stole food or small things every now and then to have some sort of luxury he couldn't afford for himself or for his sisters. Luckily he never got caught, but the memory of it still haunts him.

Nowadays Chris doesn't need a side-job anymore, as he works at the College where he got his own degree. Thankfully, an old professor for Ancient History took a liking in him and got him a job there. He earns good enough to not be hungry at the end of the month and have the luxury of living alone, while still being able to give his mom cash so she doesn't have to work herself to death in order to finance her daughter's college fees. Regarding his prior love life, he was in two relationships, trying to experience romantic love, which he had a hard time as he always felt distant to those who said to love him. Outside of his family, of course.
Significant Life Events:
- The day Chris' father left him, his mother and his sisters behind with a huge debt. He basically felt betrayed by the person he used to look up to until then.
- Stealing toys for his sisters, which he partly regrets.
- In his high school years, Chris' often got into fights with kids, who bullied him for his lack of "trendiness". One day, he confronted them with violence, one of them pulled a knife on him and cut his lip up. It was a lesson for him to not rely on his fists, but his mind because he could have end up dead, only worsening the situation for his family.
