Magic:

- Dark Magic: Shadow Manipulation: Silvia's ability in shadow manipulation is nothing short of impressive. They act as though an extra limb, and she controls them just as easily. In many instances, Silvia does not have to direct them with much more than a thought - or a flick of the hand for dramatic effect. She is able to turn them solid or pellucid with equal measure, and relies on them more than her own body. They act as both an extension of her limbs as well as her eyes. She can stretch them great distances to act as her portal to other places, allowing her to see, hear and speak as she pleases. During these times, the voice through the shadow form tends to have a slight echo and the tone of mystery. These spies have their own distinguishable (and changeable) form, but only a very careful eye can discern them from other shadows. Typically only other shadow manipulators can sense their presence, as Silvia is very good at hiding in the shadows of objects. Her power over these can be overtaken depending on the distance traveled and her contenders ability - but Silvia has met to truly meet her match. Unlike other people with an ability similar, Silvia cannot use them for transport. She is also unable to create shadows on her own, but seeing as they are every where this has never been a real problem.

- Dark Magic: Blood Manipulation: Compared to her other abilities, this one is perhaps the least formidable. Silvia cannot force forms or actions in blood she cannot see, and must touch an individuals particular blood before a connection can be made. Only then can she manipulate the blood in both solid and liquid forms. This requires more energy than her other dark magic ability, and is typically a means by which she frightens those she dislikes. 

- Miscellaneous: Shapeshifting: This ability was once a cause for concern in the general public when Silvia was announced as the next Queen of Qez - no demon has an ability such as this. At least, not from birth. This magic is not her own, and actually resides in an emerald green gem around her neck. When the owner sees fit, the emerald glows brilliantly and the wearer changes shape. Silvia's name takes after this form. This change is grotesque from her eyes, but to an observer there is only flashing light. The shift in and of itself is extremely painful for her, as her body breaks and forms bones. The result is a towering silver dragon with fearsome teeth and flaming breath, standing in a puddle of the blood that once coursed through her human form. This blood is gathered up and compressed, and thus stored in the emerald that becomes embedded in her reptilian chest. This form is rarely seen - the size makes it impossible to not break something in the process. Standing at 20 feet to the shoulder, her long neck supports a head with bright green eyes and golden horns that curve back and up from her face. Her scaled body adorns a spiky tail and large, leathery wings. Her feet are ferociously clawed, with talons several inches long. The magic of the emerald comes from Zerat itself, said to have come forth from a volcanic eruption that occurred many centuries ago. The emerald is an heirloom, but has only recently displayed its power. The shift back is not as painful, but is normally delayed for as long as possible. In every past instance, returning to human form leaves Silvia extremely drained and vulnerable. 

Appearances:

Height: 5'9
Weight: 145 lbs

On more serious occasions, Silvia does have the decency to cover up more professionally.

History: 

Born Aleuth Lachlan, Silvia was the oldest child of three. Her family's home was a massive townhouse on the outskirts of Qez. Like many things, it had been passed down through many hands. Growing up under the watchful eye of her entire immediate family, Silvia's childhood was rather uneventful - for her social position anyway. The Lachlan family had always been the closest ally of the Crownguard's as both defenders and advisers. As the eldest, Silvia was expected to take her mother's position as the Overseer of Domestic Affairs when she was of age. It was a lackluster job, but had good benefits - Silvia never complained. Much of her younger years were spent within the castle walls, and she watched the royal family grow from a close distance.

When her mother died the household - both households - shook. The royal household became less efficient, but Silvia's own family was shell shocked. Pride kept it from showing, but it undulated forcefully under the surface. The family withdrew from one another, and the mourning period stretched many months. Silvia had never had a particularly special relationship with her mother, but a hole stretched inside her anyway. However, unlike most, it didn't show in sadness or vengeance of any sort - there was only a new sense of drive. A drive to succeed filled her gut and it suddenly wasn't enough to be a Lachlan. She wanted to be more than just the Overseer of Domestic Affairs, but she knew that was where she had to start. That was her advantage, and she seized it with a clenched fist. 

Everyone knew that young king's wife was in frail health, and the weeks leading up to her death was spent in Silvia's company. The young hopeful gained the king's trust and eventually his love - by what means were never made known to the public. When Queen Dezite passed she was crowned in her place. This move to power suited her well and she now rules as a firm but fair queen. Many fear her power, and those who cross her may know no fury quite like hers.

Personality: 

Driven: Silvia's desire to accomplish is never satisfied. There is always another goal - something else to reach for. This trait sprouted from her mother's death and blossomed brilliantly under her steadfast determination. The hole in her spirit has never been filled, and it keeps her hungry for new heights. Constantly pushing herself, Silvia will stop at nothing to reach her destination; failure to do so would be devastating to her psyche in ways she is yet to understand. There is comfort in knowing that there is constant progress, and without it there is an ever present danger of losing touch with life. It is apparent that this characteristic is both great and terrible. The determination of Silvia has done great things for her kingdom, but has the potential to turn it all to dust. If not careful, Silvia can be caught up in not only her desire to succeed but in her desire to win. There have been instances where no amount of pain could prevent her from proving a point. Luckily, this is yet to turn completely disastrous. 

Perceptive: More so a gift, Silvia is perceptive to both mind and body. The first is more formidable, but the second can prove just as costly to others. Silvia is not trained in combat but is rarely caught off guard. Small movements - twitches of the muscle - serve as visual cues to determine the physical intent of others. As a child, Silvia utilized this to dodge pillows and toys flung around by her siblings. Now, it has little use in that regard. Presently the ability lends to her ability to rule. Very little slips past her notice, including lies and untruths. Silvia knows what questions to ask, and asks them with a loose tongue. Her tactic differs depending on whom she is trying to influence - whether or not she promotes chaos or calmness. Silvia's ability to manipulate others into a sense of calmness is uncanny, and it makes it all too easy to pounce on her prey. 

Fierce: With a quiet but powerful demeanor, Silvia is not a gracious person. The word mercy means little to her. Should she be a judge, all crimes would be punishable to the furthest extent of the law and without remorse. There is no room in her kingdom for rule breaking, but Silvia is nothing if she isn't fair. Everyone is innocent before proven guilty, and her knack for questioning makes figuring out one way or the other easier than it would be for most. However, once someone is condemned there is no turning back - once a thief always a thief. Once a liar always a liar, and so the trend continues across the board. Silvia's trust is not easily broken, but once it is there is little chance of returning it. The woman's fierceness translates also into some times being unable to express emotions that many find critical in normal socializing. That is, express them correctly. Perhaps it was her father's steadfastness in her childhood, the placid features of her mother's face, or the sternness of her grandmother's influence, but to Silvia crying is weakness. Letting others know that you have been injured - physically or mentally - is a weapon you freely hand over to the enemy. And to this queen, everyone is a potential enemy. For this reason, being hurt is unleashed as anger. The larger the injury the more she feels she needs to get back at you. What makes this dangerous is that Silvia does in the typical fashion of women: mind games. It's surprising how easily people let what bothers them known. In the hands of the Silver Dragon, small insecurities become spears to the heart.

Confident: Silvia's air is extremely confident, and it normally takes someone of equal competence to have the nerve to approach her to begin with. That being said, the young queen isn't particularly mean, and she doesn't abhor company - assuming you're the right company. Silvia has no concern for ignorant people, and prefers to build relationships on meetings of the mind over idle chitchat. In an odd way, the Queen enjoys being challenged with new problems to solve. Many times, new "friends" are subjected to at least one chess game where complicated conversations are a common companion. With no middle ground, you are one of three people to Silvia: an ally, an enemy, or someone who isn't important enough to carry either of those titles. In actuality, Silvia doesn't make friends; some allies are simply closer than others. Despite these things, Silvia never leans on the edge of arrogance. While sure of her ability, the Emerald Sorceress knows that she simply cannot be the best at everything - that is, quite frankly, impossible. But you won't be thrown any bones by this hand; you must earn everything yourself. 

Protective: As both leader, ally, and family member, Silvia will fight to the death for those she deems worthy. Her people are very important to her, and while she may allow the traditional tactic in the presence of danger, the Silver Dragon would have no qualms towards jumping into battle herself in the defense of those she loves. Loyal to a fault, Silvia would rather see her own blood on a sword than that of her people or family. Although she has no biological children of her own and has never tried to mother her adoptive daughters or son, to mess with Silvia's children is a personal invitation to the grave. The new queen knows only too well what it is like to have only half a family, and to cause the young ones in her protection more grief is unacceptable to her. Still, Silvia does recognize the need to nurture independence in the offspring of Queen Dezite. Verbal disputes are instances to learn, but physical or psychological threats will find their way into a dragon's mouth.
