APPEARANCE — With a single glance, anyone would know that Aeriya is an elf. Aeriya has fair, wrinkled-less skin and black pupils that sparkles under the sunlight, along with mature features. Even for a she-elf she cannot hide her tower height and long, pointy ears. Aeriya stands exactly 184 cms tall. The lass has long, wavy hair that are dark at the roots with shades of red as it streams down passed her behind (imagine that, her hair is probably as long as a goblin xD). At home Aeriya keeps her flowy hair down and only ties or decorates it for special occasions. However, at work she keeps her hair in a high braided ponytail so it won't get in her way.  She is also almost-always make-up free. Due to her height, Aeriya appears tom-boyish but has very feminine taste. She cherishes dresses with long tails, she loves it when her nails are done and polished (she has to keep her nails short for work, but she gets them done still), and she squeals at the sight of beautiful accessories. Some of Aeriya's wardrobe:
 Her work uniform. Black and white are for team leaders. For lower ranks the dress has a shorter tail and it's light green  and white. For lower ranks they are also without the armor and legging. They do wear armor though just not as fancy and they wear it over their shoulders, elbows, and knees. 
 
 Aeri's everyday outfit. She wears long cropped dresses at home and to special occassions. Most of her attires are made out of dragon scales and rich, expensive fabrics.

— THIS IS HER.
PERSONALITY

♚ Collaborative, Clear, Dedicated, Brave, Spiritual, Truthful
♚ Abrasive, Calculating, Meddlesome, Passive, Well-meaning, Impatient

PERSONALITY — Aeri is a strong independent she-elf who specialize in teamwork. She is collaborative and very open to ideas but normally she makes the first and last call. Aeri is very clear about who she is and what she wants. Afterall she has had 66 years to figure that out. So when it comes to an idea or task, as soon as she's clear about what it can and do accomplish, she's dedicated to it. In a sense this makes her brave, as her dedication to a certain thing or task can push her to the extreme and to her own limits. Aeri is also very spiritual as being in touch with their spiritual sides runs deep in her family. They believe in the goodness of the spirits and thus practice their magic through them. Aeri's family are not fond of the evil spirits thus do no associate with bad elflings and Wendigos, they also strongly believe in good spirits. Aeri is a truthful and honest individual, she is very forthcoming about almost everything. The only thing she tends to hide is her feelings as she does not want it to negativily affect her family and friends. 

Due to her truthful and clear side, Aeri often passes as being abrasive and harsh. Though it's well-meant for the good of everyone, she can be misunderstood as she's also passive and open to the actions of others. Because she knows everyone has their own personality, strengths, and weaknesses, sometimes Aeri lets things slide. So in certain eyes, she's being unfair and harsh. At times her being impatient doesn't help her, she knows everyone moves at their own pace, but she can't help it and be short temper and meddlesome. If things gets drag on for too long, Aeri tends to interfere and try to get it done as soon as possible. In this case she's calculating and abrasive. If she had decided to step up to the plate and get things done then she cannot make a single mistake. 

TRIVIA

♚ In her family the longer your hair is the more important you are. Hair is dignity, it's also a way for others to know if you're healthy and happy.
♚ Because of her rank as the only daughter to royal elf bloodline, she is often burden with high expectations from her family (further explained below)
♚ Aeri bears the elves signature weapon, bows and arrows along with a knife for close combat. Aeri is good with the knife and sword, but her low physical strength prevents her from engaging in long, and close combat.
♚ Aeri lost the top half of her left pinky to a werewolf (Kim Sunggyu). It was during one of her shift, where a mafia group was reported to have showed up in town. A fight broke out and werewolves were on the loose, Aeri had her aim on a werewolf in front of her. Little did she know its leader was going to leap out of nowhere and aim for her arm. Aeri's reflex pushed her back a step and when she turned, her hand got caught in the werewolf's mouth. With such force and speed, the wolf ripped the top half of her pinky as he passed through. Thus she wears a golden, full finger wear to cover it. 
♚ Aeri was surprised to hear that Jung Jaeeun was going to participate in the battle. Among elves, Jaeeun's family is known to be deadbeats. Aeri, however, knew Jaeeun was joining for the purpose of what have happened to Jaeeun's mother. (Aeri was in charged of Jaeeun's mother case). Though Aeri opposes Jaeeun's idea to fight violence with violence, as it's not a common practice in elf's book, she knows she cannot convert Jaeeun as she herself have not lost her mother. 
♚ Aeriya respects and admire Min Sora's abilities and high intelligence. They know each other through their lovers (Jungkook & Sungyeol). The two clicked as they think similarily and are very direct, hardworkers. 
♚ Aeriya did not  like or dislike werewolves after what have happened to her, instead she's not very fond or comfortable being or having them around her. However, Lee Jihye changed that for her. When Aeriya first learned of Jihye being a werewolf, she was taken aback and weary of the lass. However, Aeriya eventually warmed up to Jihye as Aeriya's brother have nothing but good to say about Jihye. (More details below..)
♚ More on her occupation: After turning 26, she applied and joined the law enforcement in elf territory. Around this time a new round of battle has started. Just getting to know the system, Aeriya wanted to know more about it. So evidently she travelled  to the town where every races could mingle. Because she was able to get so many information and good sources from the habitants, Aeriya ended up visiting more and more. Until she made her home there (age 33, after Daeyeol refused to meet her and she was introduced to Sungyeol) and picked up on her occupation. Though Aeriya was curious and interested in the battle, she never thought about joining it. Instead she worked hard and due to her intelligence and skills she rose up in rank quite easily.  At 39 she became a leader of she-elves who serves as sheriffs in the town. Seeing that she was able to lead, her boss (who's not an elf) threw in some werewolves, human, and goblins under her care. Her current group consists of: three she-elves (Lee Jinhee of Bulldok & Song Qian/Victoria & Choi Jinri/Sulli former of fx), werewolf (Kim Hyungeun of Bulldok), two goblins (Park Sunyoung/Luna of fx & Go Gyura : OC - coming soon!), and human (Kim Minji of Bulldok).

Aeriya's Theme — To Victory (One Piece)..

 
— SHE IS NOT ALONE.

FAMILY — Ever since birth, Aeriya's family have instilled in her that family is priority. Born into a family of five, Aeriya has two older brothers and her parents (Father: Kwon Huwon - 209 & Mother: Kwon Hwayeon - 193). Aeriya's parents are locals in the elf land of Emphemus and work as part of Elfs leader group, so they are well off. Aeriya's father is the military of defense, so he controls the elf army that works for the elves, he works with other councils in charge of the current ruler's army (since I'm sure the King has elves in his army too). Aeriya's mother is the chairman of elfs education committee. Growing up, Aeriya was precious to her parents, she was encouraged to do as she pleases as long as it's for the better of the good. Her parents takes pride in their race, they are very for ruling and hope at least one of their children would participate. When Aeriya participated, they were very proud and happy of and for her. Though one would think it's not a good idea to have their sons and daughters go to battles, her parents however are very optimistic about making a brighter future for their race. They also believe the four year ruling is unneccesary under any other race's rule, but if they can't get rid of it, they must try to conquer it.
Her older brothers:
 Kwon Jihun (75), Co-teacher of Lee Jihye, Art Teacher at Monk Monastery
Jihun teaches art at the Monk Monastery. He's Lee Jihye's co-worker and they get along fine due to the peaceful atmosphere. Jihun was an elf who wanted nothing to do with the battles and headaches of who's ruling, so he turned to the Monk to find peace. Ever since he graduated school, he lived most of his days at the Monastery and do not visit home often. So in this case Aeriya would be the one to come to him. Though they live apart, they were close siblings who could confine in one another. Jihun is serious and mature so it makes holding deep conversation easy, he's also very supportive and encouraging of Aeriya. Of course he doesn't like the fact that Aeriya is training for battle but he tries to stay positive for her. After all he should have faith in her, he must trust that she will live and win. 
 Kwon Heejun (69), Runs a Daycare * no Wendigos allowed! *
Despite being older than Aeriya, he's a lot shorter than her. Growing up, Heejun was often teased for being too short and was even nicknamed "The goblin elf" at school. Unlike his family who are just too nice, forgiving, and positive, Heejun is much more stubborn. Supposedly he got married in his 40s to a she-elf but she died in one of the battles. Ever since then Heejun does not talk about the battles and isolated himself from his family who's all about the battles. Heejun ended up opening and starting a daycare for all races in the town where everyone mingled. He has always wanted a child which was another reason why he was so angry at the battles, his wife was two weeks pregnant when she went in. In the city, though he's free from his parents radar, he often sees Aeriya. As children, Aeriya and Heejun were best friends; she even introduced Heejun and his deceased wife. But after burying his wife, Heejun wanted nothing to do with his family. Up until Aeriya confronted him about participating in the battle. Unlike his family who has faith in Aeriya, Heejun keeps it short and told Aeriya straight up that if she "goes through with the battle, this will be our last meeting,"

FRIENDS
Lee Daeyeol (Sungyeol's younger brother) is the same age as Aeriya so that's how they became friends. Unlike his cold and serious brother, Daeyeol is playful and warm-hearted. In school, Daeyeol and Aeriya were partners for group projects and much more. Daeyeol is very creative, so with creativity and brains like Aeriya they always came out on top with projects and whatnot. Around Daeyeol, Aeriya didn't want to think and work; she just loves his company and wished things would get done on their own. There was never a dull moment with Daeyeol, the lad talks about anything and everything. Daeyeol and Aeriya were inseparable as children all the way up to their teenage and young adult days.  As they turned 30, Daeyeol went to his parents to ask for their permission as he wanted to marry Aeriya. They turned him down and said Aeriya was Sungyeol's fiancee and already promised to Sungyeol before she e. Upset by it, Daeyeol wanted to take Aeriya and eloped into another race's land. Of course Aeriya turned down his idea as she did not want that for both him and her. She made it clear that they would still be friends after she failed to persuade Sungyeol to break off the arranged engagement. Aeriya did love Daeyeol, but was not in love with the lad. She wasn't exactly interested in marriae during the time as well. Daeyeol soon lives most of his days in the elfling land to avoid Aeriya. 
 
Min Sora - Sora is much older than Aeriya, but they are friends due to their similar mindset. As she-elves who are no strangers to high rank elves, the two often discusses among themselves what to present to the upperhand. They weren't exactly best friends as they rarely see one another, except by accident or at meetings/parties they're both invited to. 
 
Her Team:
 Song Qian - Second in Command - Elf (89). Dark green & white uniform due to rank.
- Respect Aeriya and has been working with the lass ever since Aeriya is 36. At 39, Aeriya chose Qian as her second in command. Qian is sensical, quiet, and loyal, and due to her great work ethnicity as well Aeriya relies on Qian when working. The two are close though they don't know a lot about one another's life outside of work. Qian is from a common elf family that is less fortunate than others, unlike Aeriya, Qian is on her own when it comes to bringing money home. Qian wields a long sword and can heal with magic.
 Go Gyura - TBA
 Lee Jinhee - Team member - Elf (51). Casual light green & white uniform.
Jinhee is a worry-free elf who is  just happy to be working. Though elf, she enjoys and prefers close range combat. She punches and kicks opponents and enemies and is the quickest one on her feet. Her best friend was human so she is used to human company. In the team she's in charge of running errands and delivering messages, locally.
 Choi Jinri - Team's nurse - Elf (33). Full white uniform to be identify as nurse.
Jinri is like Aeriya's baby, her quiet, shy, and compose personality earns all of Aeriya's love within the group. Jinri is the latest edition to Aeriya's team just two years ago. Jinri's weapon of choice is a white veil, it can be used as an extended net or cloth and she can cast white magic, so healing, slowing + speeding up time. Jinri was raised in an elf doctor family so she grew up learning plants and making potions. - She is closest to Aeriya & Qian. She doesn't mind other race, but is most comfortable with elves. * Jinri has a thing for Sungyeol.
 Park Sunyoung - Team member - Goblin (27). Casual uniform.
Despite her sly and cunning nature, Sunyoung is quite loyal and truthful to her team. At first Sunyoung was just a troublemaker that everyone wanted off the team, she did not want to be under elves command because she thinks they're not truthful and are fake (cause they're too kind and/or smart). She first joined the team at age 23, Aeriya was 56 then. Aeriya saved Sunyoung from a Wendigo's attack and the team got Sunyoung to safety. Since then their teamwork skyrocketed and she learned how to count on her members. - She gets along with everyone but is closest to Minji.
 Kim Hyungeun - Team member - Werewolf (67). Casual uniform.
Hyungeun is the team's strength and defense. In werewolf form Hyungeun's fur is a shade of white and orange-brown. Hyungeun is unreadable and no one can tell what her next move is. She's only a team player when she wants to be. Otherwise her mood swings and quick temper can get in the way. Hyungeun used to run with a werewolf gang so she gets most of her street smart from there. However, after being abandoned by them she was picked up and taken in by a town sheriff. She ended up serving the town and putting her strength into good use. When she was told she will be under the leadership of an elf, at first she was weary. Elves are known for their intelligence and magic but she didn't think an elf would make a good leader as Hyungeun believed only strength preveils. However, her first impression of Aeriya was good and they got along due to Aeriya's direct yet kind character. - overprotective of Jinri and Gyura. Always heads with Minji & Sunyoung.
 Kim Minji - Team member - Human (21). Casual uniform.
Minji is tough and full of herself because she's a human among a group of much stronger and wiser race, she tends to think she's better than other humans and isn't afraid of most race. Minji was raised in an orphanage with werewolves and elves and from experience she has never liked werewolves. Instead she finds herself siding with elves whenever a fight breaks out between the wolves and elves. So knowing Hyungeun is a werewolf, she tends to start trouble with Hyungeun and would keep at it when Sunyoung backs her up. Minji boxed growing up, soto a certain degree she's strong. However, she uses a knife and kunais. 

ENEMIES —Aeriya does not hate Sunggyu but she sees him as her enemy, one who she needs to confront. Obviously her enemies are wendigos, after all she was raised to dislike their lifestyle and existence overall.

— INTERVIEWING THE OC.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT EPHEMERUS' FOUR YEARS RULING SYSTEM?
I believe and I'm sure many would agree with me, the flaw in the system itself is not the number of years one race can rule. It's the battles that must take place to determine who rules. If we take away the bloodshed, I believe all races would get along just fine. I don't see the point of one race ruling, it only seems to benefit the ruling race. 

WHAT WAS YOUR PAST LIKE?
I lived each and everyday to my own liking. I was surrounded by good elves and thought that the land wasn't as bad as everyone says it was. That was until I visit the city where the current King lives. It was surprising to see much stronger and meaner personalities, but I saw that us co-existing is reality and that the world isn't full of only good and bad, but the in-between. 

WHY DO YOU WANT TO JOIN THE BATTLE AND COMPETE FOR THE EPHEMERAL CROWN?
My parents has always talked highly of the crown and winning the battle. At first it was only curiousity, but then as I hear more and more about how the battles work, I was just drawn in. Something tells me I can win and make my parents more proud than they are now.

WHAT ARE YOUR STRENGTH AND WEAKNESSES?
I am good with the bows and arrows and I do alright with a knife. However, I cannot engage and keep up in short-combat for long. 

WHAT ARE YOUR STRATEGIES IN THE BATTLE?
My strategy is to make sure all elves are on the same page and that we're all clear-headed and easy to work with. Teamwork should be priority in each team member and we must combine our powers and abilities if we must win this. My strategy will come after I've seen what each elf is capable of.

— Lee Sungyeol.
Choi Minho of Shinee

AGE — 85
RACE — Elf
CLASS — Knight
OCCUPATION — member of the elf leader group

STATS
STR — 25
DEX — 23
CON — 20
INT — 27
WIS — 12
CHA — 7
TOTAL— 114

SUMMARY — For an elf, Sungyeol is not particularly outgoing or happy all around. He's also the youngest member of the elf leader group thus he's more serious and mature compare to elves his age. His family overall is very close to the royal elf bloodline as they are distant cousins. Sungyeol has never truly cared about the battles and any race. His only plan is to do what's expected of him and be good at it. Sungyeol uses a spear as they are his family signature weapon. He does cast fire, but he barely uses his magic. He had no need to when he's almost always in his work office. Sungyeol is one of the few elves that resides within the King's palace in order to serve the king directly. He isn't picky who he serves, and it's a fact that Sungyeol is more of a follower than a leader. Sungyeol can be very selfish as well. 

- Sungyeol is one of Jungkook's student. They get along just fine as Sungyeol is easygoing. 

Sungyeol's theme — Heroes and Heroines..

 
— THIS IS LOVE.

FIRST MEETING — Apparently they met when Aeriya was one. Sungyeol was 20 when Aeriya's family came to his in regard to marriage. Aeriya was playing in Sungyeol's family garden and the lad who was leaving the library noticed her. For some odd reason he was fond of her and wanted her for himself. Sungyeol ended up watching Aeriya from a distance, and saw when her parents came out to get her. They noticed Sungyeol and quickly introduced the two of them. Of course Aeriya has no recollection of this, but it's been a while since Sungyeol smiled (he couldn't hold back a smile as she was all but smiles). Sungyeol was told he were engaged three days later, though his parents had never revealed who his bride will be (as they didn't think he needed to know yet). So for a long time Sungyeol felt like he had cheated on Aeriya, so he distant himself from other she-elves and was cold to them. He almost hated this "stranger she-elf" as he felt she had came in between him and Aeriya. 
They first met again when Daeyeol brought Aeriya home after school for homework and fun. Once again Sungyeol had his nose in a book when he heard laughter and noises. As he went to go see, he saw the and immediately he recognized Aeriya. She has grown up prettier than ever. At this time Aeriya was 14, and Sungyeol 33. Sungyeol never had the courage to approach Aeriya first, because on the following day though he wanted to visit Aeriya's home (now knowing who and what she looks like, and knowing she has been his fiancee all along), his father dropped the news that he will be travelling to the King's town with him. And that Sungyeol has been accepted into the leader's committee to serve the new ruler directly. 
After being in the palace, some 15 years later, Sungyeol received a letter from Aeriya asking for him to break off the engagement. Knowing that Daeyeol was the problem, Sungyeol sent words to his parents that he was and is ready to meet his fiancee in person. 
Finally they formally met as an engaged couple after Aeriya's 33rd birthday. Sungyeol heard she was working for the law enforcement in town and congratulate her on that. He then revealed that he has decided to meet because he didn't want to see his younger brother and Aeriya commit an affair. Though they didn't click, Aeriya finds Sungyeol rather controlling and insecure for their first meeting. So naturally she did not try to meet up with him. It was three months later that Sungyeol reached out to Aeriya, asking when's a good time for the to get marry. Aeriya blew his letters off and did not care to respond. Until Sungyeol came to her in person a year later. 

RELATIONSHIP — Due to their  position and rank, Sungyeol and Aeriya hardly sees each other. However in Aeriya's mid forties, Sungyeol finally found some time to get to know her. They spent more time together when Sungyeol was on vacation and eventually the two grew fond of one another. Though they still go on for days without any contact. Finally in her 50s, Aeriya was the one longing and yearning for Sungyeol. She'd try to visit his office or get him to come out when she have something to show or give him (Sungyeol was the first one she introduced her horse and bunny to). As time goes on, Sungyeol warmed up to Aeriya and often remind her that their first meeting was when she was a toddler, so she didn't know Daeyeol but him first. Then in her early 60s, Sungyeol was really pushing for marriage, because that way maybe he'll be able to move out of the palace and live with her. Aeriya howeer, has other plans. She wants to participate in the battles, after all she grew up trained and encouraged for the battles. When Sungyeol heard about her wanting to join, he was strongly against it. He even tried to get her banned from joining from the king, but the goblin king did not grant him his wish. In the end, Sungyeol had no choice but to support Aeriya's plan. 
Here's their attire when they go to battle: 
 
 
 
— THE END.

FAMOUS LAST WORDS — I think I've wrote enough...

SCENE SUGGESTIONS — My mind and brains are fried at the moment, lol, so if I think of anyting 'll let you know on either form xD

PASSWORD — Hm pyromancers! xD

Thank you for the second entry~ <3

- First of all, please change her name to a regular Korean name. Since this is a Kpop fanfic after all, so I want to stay away from all fantasy/magical sounding name. Plus someone else applied as Aeri, so it can't be Aeri either XD
- Second.. I know you are probbaly veeery excited making this app.. But there are going to be 24 main characters, which is already way too much than people can usually remember. So I am really trying to keep characters as minimum as possible. So the list of family members and friends most probably won't get mentioned. I'm sorry. >.<
- With spiritual, is there a certain deity she worships?
- Wait.. so the group of she-elves consists of non elves as well? Why?
- I love the "No Wendigos Allowed" daycare XD
- So she has a thing with both Sungyeol and Daeyeol? Takes two brothers? That is so messed up! XD
- Oohhh I psot HSLO version of Sungyeol~
- "Sungyeol is one of Jungkook's student. They get along just fine as Sungyeol is easygoing." loll still so hard to believe XD
- I feel like you'd have a fun time writing a spin off for this character. Which you are more than welcome to do once I finish writing EC XD

:) Glad to see you that added Sora to Aeriya's friend list. Hmm... Considering that Aeriya is the town sheriff, I would assume that they actually would meet/see each other more, since let's say, during breaks and etc, Aeriya and her team would stop by at Sora's Tavern for food/rest (lunch/dinner/snacks)? So essentially, Aeriya and Sora would be better friends then, no? Because if Aeriya and her team stop by a lot, they'd have more time to talk, and etc.

Ooh, and Sungyeol and Jungkook XD I can honestly see how people (who don't know them) would think that Sungyeol is actually the older one because of his laidback/mature vibes, compared to Jungkook's unpredictability and spontaneous outbursts of energy. Can you imagine it? Say like, during the PreGame's Feast/Formal Ball, other races are talking about them, and Sungyeol is just standing there 'You do realize that I was taught by this guy right here, and he's older than me?' And then they turn around to see Jungkook messing around and making other people laugh (or having a food eatting contest with a werewolf and after he ends up winning, jumps up and down happily while shaking a unamused Sora). ;) That would make a funny scene actually.
