Character

Description

The first thing that would catch your eye about Naiyalë Rivulet is her hair: a striking, deep crimson red, cropped to a short shoulder-length wavy bob. That might be the only thing you see of her at first, as at 5’3”, she tends to disappear in crowds of those of taller statures. Yet when facing her head on, she appears to possess an air of curiosity and depth. Her large, round golden-brown eyes are somehow both piercing and inquisitive, her glance often giving the impression of an unspoken question. The tips of her pointed ears barely poke out from beneath her hair, giving away her half-elven lineage. Her warm tanned skin appears soft to the touch, as if running a finger across her collarbone would feel as though you were stroking velvet. Upon that very same collarbone rests a necklace with a delicate gold chain and a large kite-shaped diamond pendant. The diamond is flecked with black and white inclusions, giving it a smoky, gray hue that only reflects light from certain angles. Her attire consists of a black flowing dress with long, draping sleeves, adorned with gold and emerald green accents. It is elegant, but a discerning stylistic eye would notice it was slightly out of fashion, hinting at her unique taste or perhaps a disregard for the latest trends. Completing her look is a stiff black capelet draped over her shoulders and back that cascades down to her calves. On the dance floor, the rare glimpses of her arms from beneath her flowing sleeves would reveal her strength and fluidity; although she is short, there is a nimbleness to her, as if she’s not merely following the dance moves, but instead making them her own without missing a beat, a controlled agility that speaks to her elven blood and a level of comfort in her movement. Off of the dance floor and in contrast to her somewhat harsh and dark attire, there is an endearing shyness to Naiyalë. If you trailed her throughout an evening, you’d notice how often she appears to take a half-step back in crowded rooms, an awkwardness that tinges her demeanor with a tentative uncertainty. If you catch her eye in one of these moments, she may return your glance with a half-smirk, half-smile, as if she’s unsure if she’s in the right place, letting you in to a hint of vulnerability as she navigates a world that she has yet to fully grasp.
