Name: Carteret Halifax
Age: 20
Race: Griffin Shifter.
Physical Description:
(Human) A dark-skinned maiden with brown-grey hair. Her frame build is quite thin and athletic, obviously made for speed and not power. On her face is always a grin. Her clothes are leather pants and skirt and a long-sleeved, thick jacked made of unidentified reptile skin. On her back is a long, beautiful cloak made from her own brown-gray feathers that she has shed.
(Griffin) Half harpy eagle and half cloudy leopard, Halifax's true form holds an unstoppable burst of energy and speed (although not much power to speak of). Her wings are very short but very powerful, and she can fly around and climb up trees with ease. She is about the size of a horse, but much, much lighter. She has pseudo-saber fangs.
Her only supernatural aptitude is that her feathers repel magic. Not in a total, fulminating way, but more in a moderate, constant dispel which will tire out magic-wielders with time and suck away their energy (although Halifax herself has no use for this power).
Personality: Carteret is half goofy and half smart. She tries to appear a big deal but often ends up fumbling things up. She is distracted and impatient and eager to get into the action; a big fan of races and speed and open spaces. She is the kind of person who notices the little details nobody else does but misses the more obvious things quite often.
She is lighthearted, competitive and playful; and seems to take life a la Hakuna Matatta. She doesn't let the world-ending problems worry her.
History: Halifax was born in a forest far away, Selkia. Her family raised her the best they could; but not having too many resources they couldn't teach their daughter some things, such as reading. Their life was quite modest; they lived in a straw hut atop a great tree in the deep forest.
Once she came of age, she left to the great, vast world... where she quickly found a job as mail carrier, thanks to her wings and speed. Her life as of late has been spent running and flying from city to city delivering letters all over.
