The room you enter is all done up in shades of emerald greens and misty silvers looking like a loch in the early morning while the dews still sparkled on the grass.
In the corner of the room is a four poster bed, with gauzy white silk sheets drifting down in a light canopy, though the sheets are a little tattered on the edges just like the room's occupant, who sits before a vanity table, brushing her hair with a silver comb.
The floor is covered with an emerald carpet shot through with silver strands and the walls hold the same effect causing the lighting to sparkle off the surfaces in a rather soothing effect.
Set against a wall is a desk, set with note books and other school items, the only sign that there is a student here rather than just someone who decided to move in.
As you enter the girl at the vanity turns to look at you, welcoming you silently with her eyes and a gentle nod. This is Caoineadh O' Briain, or Keen, to those who get to know her better.

Year 1:
Name: Caoineadh O' Briain Nicknames: Keen Gender: Female Age: ??? (Mentally stuck at 15)
Faction: Ghost Race: Bean-shìdh (Banshee)
Who... no what was that? All Bean-shidh are able to take the form of some of native animals of where they are in order to get to where they need to be to announce the death of those around them. Keen is only good at turning into a ferret though and a rather pale transparent one at that, but it is still cute. If she gets to know a person better she may even follow them around in this form, if not try to hitch a ride in a pocket or on a shoulder.
Who's that girl?:
Keen is rather quite but good natured for one that announces death on a regular basis. She doesn't like speaking though, since people always think when she is going to open her mouth she is going to scream and someone will die. To get past that issue she started to carry around note pads and pencils to allow her to write notes to those she really needs to speak with, though she also tries to let her body do the talking.
She is a lesser banshee having been one of the 25 attendants to her clan's [O' Briain] main Banshee Eevul who was thought to be the spirit of a fae and is the one that leads the keening to notify of deaths within the clan. Keen's duty in the clan was to join in the singing that let the clan know that a member of the royal family was going to die. That wasn't and still isn't an issue to her except that with times changing and the members of the clan moving around the world, she has been sent out to learn more and perhaps move on to other clans or races.
Keen enjoys taking the form of ferrets because she is able to snuggle up to people without bothering them but she doesn't have a lot of experience with that since not many want a banshee near them, but when she is permitted she tends to be a softer ferret and not as smelly as the regular type. Lets have some fun!
Like most teens Keen does like to have some fun. She loves listening to soft pipe and flute music, dancing in the moonlight and actually acrobatic feats such as silk dancing and parkour, which she does for fun, since being a ghost she could just move through objects rather than over them.
FEAR Ability:
Nightmare Wail. (The Charge) Keen lets loose her Banshee wail to drive pain into the mind of all of those around her.
The Charge The Charge specializes in splash damage: that is, this particular move deals damage to more than one target. However, if you miss the ENTIRE attack misses! Your additional targets won't receive damage.
Tier One: Dice: 3d8 First Two Dice: work just like standard attack dice. xxxxx ie, 2d8 -6 = the damage to your first target. Third Dice: divided by 2 is the damage do your second target. Remember to round up. xxxxx ie third dice was rolled 3. 1.5 rounds up to 2 damage to second target.
Tier Two: Dice: 4d10 First Two Dice: work just like standard attack dice. xxxxx ie, 2d10 -6 = the damage to your first target. Third Dice: is your direct damage to your second target. Fourth Dice: divided by 2 is the damage do your third target. Remember to round up. Example: I roll 9, 4, 1, 5. xxxxx First Opponent: 9+4=13-6=7 dmg xxxxx Second Opponent: 1 is 1 dmg. xxxxx Third Opponent: 5/2 is 1.5, round up to 2 dmg.
Tier Three: Dice: 4d12 First Two Dice: work just like standard attack dice. xxxxx ie, 2d12 -6 = the damage to your first target. Third Dice: is your direct damage to your second target. Fourth Dice: divided by 2 is the damage do your third target. Remember to round up. Example: I roll 8, 9, 7, 12. xxxxx First Opponent: 8+9=17-6= 11 dmg xxxxx Second Opponent: 7 is 7 dmg. xxxxx Third Opponent: 12/2 is 6 dmg.
IMPORTANT: Always, always, ALWAYS quote your targets! In the event that this Fear is used in a massive ORP setting, please try to be mindful of the IC locations. ie, are your targets near each other? Can your attack ICly affect them? While we don't enforce this, we ask that you please try to keep this in mind. Regarding Targets: You can't hit the same person twice; each target must be a different character. This means in a 1-on-1 fight you're essentially using this Fear to use stronger attack dice. No target? Look around you ICly. Destroy something! Please note that depending on where you are ICly it may result in IC repercussions.
Learned Abilities: Dramatic Darkness Whenever you laugh 'evilly' or rather ominously, it seems that the shadows themselves warp and twist around your features making you seem larger and more powerful than before. You voice also echoes and sends chills down the spins of those who hear it.
Sweet Sinnamon- By the infusion of evilly delicious spices, you student can now outside of battle, make any food they touch palatable and vaguely taste like there is a bit of a sweet kick to it. In battle they just smell good. Which is nice if they start to get a bit sweaty I suppose.
Pumpkin Spice You can now passably pumpkin spice flavour/scent anything.
Brand: Though at times mildly infuriating, Brand is certainly a friend to Keen. He makes life much more entertaining when he is around.
Camilla: Keen loves being around the Dormouse, she is fun and its good to have girl time with someone who doesn't judge!
Carlos: (Hunt down link later) Cheshire cat. Keen really wants to keep him as a pet, sadly it isn't right to make a pet out of another thinking being, so she just settles for treating him like one, with lots of petting and carrying him around on her shoulder.
