Urahra 5777 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Full Name: Dr. Tanith Vursur Aliases/Nicknames: Tanith of the Westerlands, Tanith Toov, Tanith Olora, Tanith Gyffard, Tanith Kameki, “Tan”, "Tani" Gender: Female Birthday: Born in year 1273 of the First Age (estimated as she does not know her exact birthday.) Race: Dark Elf (Mali'ker) Profession: Vice President of the Northern Geographical Society, Historian, Author, Mage Spouse(s): Icroth Vursur (living, married 1781 FA); Reeve Gyffard (deceased, married 1612 FA); Theo Olora (deceased, married 1494 FA); Baldir Toov (deceased, married 1374 FA) Children: James Vursur (adopted, living); Viyr Toov (adopted, deceased); Geralt Toov (biological, deceased) Extended Family: Miruel Vursur (brother-in-law), Evalynn Vursur (granddaughter), Frantzisko Vursur (grandson), Rhosyn Vursur (granddaughter) Awards and Accolades: Doctorate of History, awarded by the Northern Geographical Society 124 S.A. (1920 IST.); NGS Gilded Star Medal for recognition of significant contributions (awarded 2068 IST, 272 SA) Height: 5'10" Weight: 141 lbs Build: Like most elves, Tanith is tall and slender with long, willowy limbs. Hair: Pale pink Style: Her hair is extremely long, so she ties it back to keep it manageable and out of her way. Tanith very, very rarely cuts her hair and has often let it grow for decades at a time. Her hair texture is very coarse, wavy, and difficult to brush or style without significant effort. Eyes: Hot Pink Skintone: Light grey Clothing: Tanith endeavors to dress in a pleasant and professional manner. Her clothing aesthetic samples attire from different eras, so she can sometimes be seen in either modern wear or archaic dress from hundreds of years ago. She can often be seen with ribbons or flowers in her hair. Her favorite colors are red, pink, gold, and green, so that's what she wears most often. Identifying Features: Tanith's strongest and most identifying feature is likely her extremely long pale pink hair, which is somewhat unusual coloring for a dark elf. She is also very near-sighted and requires glasses to be able to see. Overall Demeanor Tanith strives to be friendly, engaging, and polite. She is largely cheerful, although occasionally prone to bouts of melancholy. It is hard not to notice a certain lingering, existential sadness around her - as is common with many elves who reach her age. Her comportment tends to be somewhat reserved. She walks sedately from place to place with her hands folded, not often running or jumping. When working or focusing on something she enjoys, she may sing or hum quietly to herself -- although she will get embarrassed if you point out. Her clothes and hair are always very tidy and well kept. Strengths Hard-Working Tanith has a strong work ethic. She does what she's told and she does it to the best of her ability. This does lead to a tendency to overwork herself to the point of exhaustion and burnout. Someone needs to remind her that it's healthy to take breaks! Very Old Tanith has lived for a very long time. She has seen a lot of things, done a lot of things, and remembers a lot of things. If asked nicely, she'll be happy to share her memories with others. Loyal Tanith is loyal to a fault. When she commits herself to a person, a place, or a cause, her commitment is unshakable. She has pledged her loyalty to the wrong cause in the past, however, and tries to be discerning about those to whom she gives her faithfulness. Earnest & Sincere Tanith means what she says. She speaks honestly and genuinely from her heart. Very rarely does she have cause to lie or be dishonest. Expert Magician Tanith has mastery over the art of water/ice evocation and voidal translocation -- as well as a working, comprehensive knowledge of transfiguration, fire evocation, and housemagery. She's an adept voidal mage with over 600 years of practice under her belt. Cooking & Gardening Tanith loves to cook! She is a self taught chef, but she has had many, many, many years of practice. Tanith is happiest in the kitchen when she's cooking a nice dinner. She also enjoys growing her own fruits and vegetables to use in her recipes. Weaknesses Melancholic A long life involves a great deal of loss. Tanith has lived the majority of her life among humans and, as a result, she has watched a great many friends age and die before her eyes. She also lived through some difficult times in history for elves, which left some scars upon her heart that time has not yet healed. Excessively Humble Tanith does not like to brag about herself and tends to downplay her accomplishments. She views herself as a very ordinary person, not particularly noteworthy or deserving of praise. Nearsighted Tanith has been nearsighted all her life and cannot make out objects at a distance (unless they're very large) without her glasses. If she loses her glasses, she’s nearly blind. Weak / Out of Shape Tanith is not physically strong and it would be very easy to overwhelm her in a fight. Her use of voidal magic has left her physically weak and fragile. Strenuous physical activity like hiking or combat tires her out quickly. Extensive magic casting also tires her quickly, which is why she only uses it for emergencies. Anxiety-Prone Tanith is a dyed-in-the-wool worrywart. She worries about everything and everyone to the point of excess and can often drive herself crazy with anxiety. She knows her anxious thoughts and worries are irrational, but that doesn't stop her from feeling the way she does. (Seriously, someone get this woman on fantasy SSRIs.) Emotional Dark elves are known for their intense and passionate emotions, and Tanith is no different. Tanith feels everything at full volume. She loves fiercely, grieves deeply, and her anger - albeit rare - is explosive. Her happiness is like a shining light, her sadness is a smothering blanket, and her grudges can last beyond a lifetime.
