Character's name: Carousel Aurelia (Carou)
STATS (5 [highest] to 1 [lowest]):
STRENGTH: 1
AGILITY: 5
INTELLIGENCE: 4
CHARISMA: 5
ENDURANCE: 3
Nickname(s), pronunciation (if applicable): Carou - Care-roh-sel, Cah-roo, Care-roh, either one is fine - Oh-rayl-lee-uh
Stats (age, height, weight): Age 450 years, height 5'0", weight 40-50 lbs (hollow bones, built for flight)
Job/Position/Title: Aerialist/acrobat/apprentice nurse
Distinguishing features (extended physical description): Snow white skin, snow white poofy hair, elvin-like ears, blue swirl tattoo over his left eye, "eyeliner" tattoos around each of his eyes, three diamonds embedded into the skin beneath his right eye, glassy insect-like wings at his back, two pairs of white feathered wings at his ankles. Definitely stands out.
Carries (inventory and notable hidden objects): Usually nothing, unless he's wearing long sleeves which he usually has enchanted to hold things like money and a cloak. Sometimes he'll carry a small coin purse with him, especially if he's travelling.
Species: (custom) Sklirolith, translated into "Starlighter" - a sub-class of celestial angel mixed somewhere in there with birds. In short, bird-angel.
Character background: Carousel comes from an isolated location which is unknown and unheard of - he is most likely the first of his kind that anyone would have seen, and appears to be the only one in this world. He never talks about his home because he's convinced he's done something terrible and so has "fallen from grace," as he refers to it. The location of the rest of his people is kept as a carefully guarded secret. They are a peaceful race and extremely vulnerable, so it is important not to disclose the location of their home. Because he is a rarity, Carousel has already suffered, but only his closest friends know that story.
Pros: He is extremely agile and swift, especially in the air; his body was built for flying. He is also very adept at elemental magic, his element being strictly Ice.
Cons: He isn't very physically strong because his body was built for flying. So he's very light. Also, his magic's source is his own life force so he'll tire out easily if he's casting too heavily. His body was not built for this world, either, so he's extremely, extremely weak to cold and to disease. Suffice it to say that he's a very delicate creature.
How often do you plan on being in the dream? Sadly not too terribly often. But Carousel is a visitor, since he already has a home elsewhere. He will come and go as he pleases - he can fly and he's not a "land-dwelling" creature.
Anything else we should know? Here's his website: www.wix.com/Avamarine/Carousel
Anything characters within the dream should know? (fame, nobility, a bounty, etc.) Just that no one should ever have seen anything like Carousel before, and that he's an extreme rarity. Also, he's not a Fae even though he might look like one. It's okay if your character ICly makes that mistake but expect Carousel to be mildly (very mildly) insulted. His people are convinced they're much better than the Fae, even though they are distant cousins.
*Oh, a sidenote because I've encountered this a lot: yeah Carou looks like a girl, and yes he's often mistaken for one, and yes he's always embarrassed and a little bit miffed when that happens. It's okay if your character ICly mistakes him for a female. His people are very androgynous, all of them.
