Sorry this took me so long T__T
I've had loads of college work and the english coursework has been giving me the mother of all writer's block.
Apologies if there's anything wrong, or it's a little short. Any faults will be corrected... basically as soon as I notice. I look forward to some criticism :']

I had real difficulty with the history, so I expect there'll be some problems there.
Here it goes...

I'll be posting info on Edits in here, so It's easy to find. Changes from the most recent edit will be underlined until the next edit.

EDIT: 30/11/2009, 00:34 GMT. Added some new info under "History", on advice from dracoaestas. Also added some new info to "Physical Description" because it occured to me that I didn't mention what she wears.

Name: - Ebrithil Abr Dauth (meaning “Master of Death” in Ancient Language. Explained in History)

Age:- 137.

Gender: - Female.

Skills: -
• Ebrithil is highly skilled in the art of hand to hand combat and prefers to fight without a weapon wherever possible. She favours swift, well placed moves to the use of brute force, and is not often seen making moves that require a large backswing or exposing her weak points. However, she doesn’t often get the opportunity to fight in this way. When unable to use her preferred fighting method, Valkyrie fights with a double-edged, double-ended battleaxe (see “Weapons) for which she has developed an immense proficiency. She has little to no skill with most long-range weapons, as she does not like to use them.

• Ebrithil is well practiced in the art of defensive magic, and also in the art of breaking the mind. She is moderately adept at magical disguise but her offensive magic skills are somewhat lacking.

• Ebrithil is also an excellent apothecary, her particular strength lying in the brewing of poisons and antidotes.

• Ebrithil also has all of the skills common to shades – speed, strength, stamina, pain tolerance and sensory abilities that surpass that of any human. By a shade’s standard she is relatively weak in several of these aspects though her pain tolerance is unnaturally high even for those of her race. She is also extremely difficult to kill, as shades can only be killed by stabbing them through the heart.

Race: - Shade.

Hair: - Ebrithil has straight, short, shaggy, navy blue hair with a long, jagged fringe swept to one side out of her face.

Eyes: - Her eyes are a deep, clear pink – large, deep-set and wide, with large, round pupils, framed by straight, long eyelashes. She has a firm, unwavering gaze that many people find to be extremely unsettling.

Home Village: - Gil’ead.

Parents: - Dead. Humans by the name of Aleyshia and Erik.

Siblings: - None.

Character Personality: - There are not many things that can be said about Ebrithil as a “person” but of the few things that can, one is most prevalent – she is ferocious, almost animal in behaviour. She has a bloodthirsty nature and enjoys nothing more than the thrill of the fight – except maybe the pain that she causes in the process. She is vicious and calculated, with a sharp tongue and a sickening sense of humour. She has a taste for blood and a lust for revenge that is not easily quenched.
It is very difficult to make Ebrithil angry, as she considers such emotions to be futile and dismisses them as a sign of weakness. Her actions are focused more around survival instincts than emotional decisions. She feeds off of the fear of others, and revels in the pain of those around her. Though she often acts on impulse she can also be extremely quiet and contemplative. She is a meticulous planner when necessary, though this is not often. She prefers to be alone than around others and relies upon no one but herself.
She has no agenda, she merely enjoys being the cause of the fear and panic that surrounds her. She is evil to the core, without any kind of reasoning or possible explanation. She does not wish for world domination, or for understanding, nor acceptance. She enjoys the pain and the suffering that she causes and cares for no one other than herself and Alistor (see “Animal Companions”).

Character History: - Angela Garrison was born in a small, poor town just outside of Gil’ead 154 years ago to her doting parents Aleyshia and Erik Garrison. Angela was a shy and humble girl who came to an untimely death at the age of 17 when a sorcerer from the city kidnapped her and summoned powerful spirits into the body of the young girl. Angela, being much too weak to resist the spirits, died almost instantaneously, but the spirits managed to maintain control of the body anyway – an extremely unusual occurrence in Shade creation. It is for this reason that the spirits chose their name “Ebrithil Abr Dauth”, for it was in the Death of the young girl that they became true masters of her body.
For the last 13 decades Ebrithil has been prowling Alagaesia, widely minding her own business and mostly pursuing one of her favourite and most profitable pastimes – Bounty Hunting. Ebrithil has spent years drifting from town to town hunting any and all those with a price on their head (as well as the occasional “extra-curricular” kill, for good measure).
Strangely, at no point in the last 137 years has Ebrithil met another shade. This is probably because she does her best to stay out of the affairs of others. However, an unusual occurrence a fortnight ago may cause this all to change.
For the last several months, Ebrithil has travelled the Beor Mountains region with Alistor, looking for something that even she is not entirely certain of. There seems to be a mysterious energy surrounding this place that draws her to it and two weeks ago an encounter with a mysterious human changed Ebrithil's perceptions.

Weapons: - Ebrithil carries a double-edged, double-ended battleaxe, which she uses in any battle where she cannot fight bare-handed.

Likes: - Death, torture, hunting, the smell of blood, snakes, poison-making, shiny objects.

Dislikes: -Happy-go-lucky people, the colour orange, the word “ostentatious” and people whom it applies to, disorganization, horses, birds.

Animal Companions: - Ebrithil travels with an Oxyuranus Microlepidotus – also known as the western or inland Taipan snake – named Alistor. Inland Taipan is widely considered the second most venomous snake on the planet. Taipan snakes are, however, extremely docile in nature, and will not attack unless severely provoked. Ebrithil goes everywhere with Alistor, who’s colour changes to brown in the winter and yellow in the summer. Alistor is probably the only creature Ebrithil is emotionally attatched to. Alistor generally feeds on small creatures like mice and frogs.

Character's Physical Description: - Ebrithil is tall, with extremely pale (almost translucent) skin. She is thin to the point of extremism, though her long arms and legs are toned and slightly muscular. Her teeth are pointed and she has abnormally long, snake-like canines. She also has a forked tongue, though it is unknown whether this is natural or she made this modification herself. Her lips are stained a deep red, the colour of blood, though the highlights of her cheeks are pale grey. Her nails are long, almost talon-like. Her appearance overall is menacing and intimidating – she is not someone you would want to meet alone in a dark alleyway. As for her apparel, Ebrithil travels in the most convenient and inconspicuous clothing possible. A blood red vest top, a pair of black, cuffed shorts held up by a leather belt, a pair of large, black, knee-high steel-toe workman's boots and a black, hooded cloak with red lining. When travelling through populated areas and when hunting marks she wraps the cloak around herself and pulls up the hood to conceal her identity and race. She also pulls on a pair of short, blood red gloves to conceal her claw-like fingernails.

Dreams for the Future: - Ebrithil has no particular ambitions, except perhaps a desire for destruction – though this may be a situation soon set to change.

Reason for Dreams: - N/A

Alignment/side: - Ebrithil works only for herself, she has no time for the follies of other, more foolish creatures.
