Constellation || Symbol
Personality: Crinis is a rather social and touchy-feely troll who's more than willing to strike a conversation with an individual and invade some personal space while she's at it. She never knows if it will actually make a new troll acquaintance uncomfortable, but it's not like she even cares enough stop amusing herself and back off. The girl totally gets off on watching others squirm awkwardly by her hand; and if they're not opposed to her being all up in their space, that's even better (albeit a bit boring to her). However, when someone takes her playfulness for some serious intentions, that's when Crinis feels a little uncomfortable herself. She knows she's pretty darn awesome, but this troll does not want to get into those quadrant complications and she will set the record straight fast.
Regarding who she'll talk to on the blood hierarchy, Crinis isn't really keen on limiting who she can interact with. However, she isn't afraid to put someone in their place, especially if they insult her. Vanity is something you could say she's familiar with, especially when you look this awesome and can even make others look this awesome just with some of your hard work.
Looking good (and making other trolls look good, even if that means standing a few feet away as to not cause a comparison) is just what she does. Most importantly, hair. Crinis is damn proud of her hair -- even if half of it is gone -- and can't help but notice other troll's hair to sometimes weird levels. Atrocious hair will very well make her flip her s**t and want to cut it, and gorgeous hair of course draw her in. But man, you can totally trust her. She's had lots of practice. Crinis's respiteblock is littered with foam troll busts and practice wigs, just ignore the cuts and nail marks in their featureless troll faces from frustration. It just happens after a hair-cutting session gone wrong, which is only about 50% of the time! Totally. safe.
In a location not physically recorded for fear of someone else finding it (in her hive somewhere), there is a collection of hair. Crinis's collection of hair. You know those 'weird' levels mentioned earlier? Yeah, this is that. Crinis likes obtaining locks of hair through obscure methods, preferably without anyone noticing, and keeping them. Each lock is neatly kept together, labeled, and taped up; but no one can know. This is something she's actually rather self-conscious about. Crinis tells herself it is most positively not strange, especially for someone who works with hair all the time, but there's a lot doubt over it in the back of her sponge and she just rather hide it. However, she is so bold as to sometimes slip the topic into her conversations by asking a simple, "What do you think about keeping locks of hair?" That totally doesn't mean it has anything to do with her specifically though, it's just a question! Sheesh.
Strengths:
__Social - As mentioned, Crinis is rather social and not really shy or scared to talk to other trolls. However, 'not scared' doesn't mean in the sense of just strutting up to some clearly ravenous and violent troll. She's got natural charisma and a knack for starting up casual conversations.
__Strength - Yeah, her strength is strength. Cerulean bloods are thought to be physically stronger than most trolls, and Crinis is no exception. However, she's not so powerful as to be considered STRONG, and Crinis's blood-gift of strength is only ever mindlessly accessed in utter anger/rage. When clear thought is applied to using and displaying it, she doesn't unless she's fishing for compliments. Strenuous activity actually requiring strength in the first place isn't really her thing.
__Determination - Although she is not the most ambitious troll like those with goals of success and power, what goals Crinis does have are met with a deep determination to be completed (of course, they are often not aiming too high or difficult in the first place). Laziness and frustration are two tough things to overcome and often do get the better of her, but she does not falter in what she wants and knowing that she will have whatever it is eventually. That lock of hair, the attention of a troll at the adjacent table, beauty across all of Alternia -- if not today, then tomorrow. Or the next day maybe. She will not forget.
Flaws:
__Easily Frustrated - Crinis is actually easily annoyed and frustrated into short bursts of rage. With other trolls, the rage is most likely going to be verbal as she tries to show some physical constraint to those she likes, but that doesn't actually stop her from directing the urge at some inanimate object. An example would be when she's practicing hair cutting on the bust-wig-combos of hers. When haircuts turn out atrocious, Crinis usually just lops the rest off in frustrated annoyance and goes so far as to dig her nails in by angry man-handling and finally stabbing the scissors in repeatedly.
__Lazy - Unnecessary, strenuous activities are the enemy. Crinis doesn't really like hard work and avoids it as much as she can, and if the possibility of pawning something off on another troll is there, she will try. Even food for her lusus is obtained by simply purchasing it. So she's not exactly a reliable troll when given a task either.
__Vain - Crinis sucks up compliments like a vaccum and is easily won over with them. She's vain to an agitating level, but doesn't think every little thing about her is amazing (unless you just so happen to insist). She knows what she does well and what she doesn't even try due to being lazy, which is why she does hold onto what compliments she gets. The troll never questions her looks, however.
Weapon: SCISSORSKIND! Scissors aren't just excellent for cutting hair~
The actual weapon is larger than any scissors she uses for troll hair, as this is the pair she owns for her Woolion lusus.
Appearance:
__Horns: retardeddoodlepop. Short to medium sized. They barely poke out of the side that actually has hair, however the end does come to a point. They are pretty much modeled after her symbol.
__Hair: REF.
__Top: Some simple fusion of what you see here, here, and here. Comes short just above the belly button, if trolls were to actually have one. Black cloth with Cerulean symbol. The single strap showing is Cerulean.
__Bottom: Tight grey jeans. Rips on one of the thighs as if clawed by an animal (lion /cough/) would be cool beans, but it's pretty much up to you.
__Shoes: Black flats.
__Accessories: A cerulean belt with a silver buckle.
__Makeup/Tattoo/Markingwhatever:
The other eye is the same, just no little Makeup/Tattoo/Markingwhatever coming off the bottom. __Nails: They are of this length and neatly painted cerulean.
Home: New Hemisect City (Suburbs) | Crinis lives just on the edge of the suburbs where the houses begin to thin out into the plains. She would much prefer to live in the actual bustle of the city, but with a lusus the size that he is it doesn't seem very negotiable. Their hive is of moderate size, with a large garage (whatever that is) like extension for her lusus to stay in.
Lusus: Woolion ~ Wooly Mammoth + Lion || A long-fured, shaggy maned male lion the size of a mammoth (let's go with Asian elephant sized) with a mammoth's tusks, ears, and tail which lacks its end hair, looking simply like someone lopped off the end. What was once the hair on the left side of Crinis's head is now attached to the end of his tail via rubber-band.
Power: NONE. O 3O
