Xul'Quaras of Qun'Tilu
Bio
Description
This female Idaran is quite short for her race, standing at about 5 feet and 9 inches tall. She has ice-white scales that shimmer in the slightest light and eyes of a soft pinkish-red, expressive and full of energy, but possessing a sort of calmness deep, deep within. She has long, silky, fine golden hair that flows all the way down to her bottom, glows in most light, and is moved easily by the faintest breeze. Because of this, she often gets strands draped across her face, having to push it out of her eyes constantly. She has a relaxed mannerism about her, and despite her military background, seems quite easygoing. Her voice is slightly higher pitched than one would expect, and she stays cheerful most of the time. She has a very nice figure, with heavily accented curves. A rather large bust and backside complete her good looks, and her legs are extremely toned, with her arms falling slightly short in that sense.
Casual description
She currently wears a low-cut black blouse that exposes a sizable amount of her midriff, covered by a short tan vest with several pockets that drapes down over her to about her ribs, not offering a whole lot of coverage but looking fairly stylish. She wears a pair of rather tight jet black shorts that cut off a little higher than mid-thigh, and tall black boots that end at her knee, a series of straps running down the front to about the ankles on each boot. Overall, she certainly does not look very militaristic.
Armor description
Currently, she wears a set of form-fitting full body armor that is a black so deep it seems to absorb any light. It is made of many different connecting plates that are made of a seemingly synthetic material akin to fiberglass, but stronger. It covers every part of her body, and looks like a second set of thick skin. The only distinguishing design on it is the Imperial Guard insignia on the right breast. The helmet has a black visor and a mouthpiece that filters out any dangerous substance. The whole thing gives her a rather fierce looking appearance. Strapped on her back is a long, sleek sniper rifle, and on each hip is a rather grizzly looking energy pistol.
Background
I was born into a very strict military family of the Qun’Tilu clan on Idar prime about twenty-four years ago, being taught from a very young age how to defend myself, particularly with my father’s collection of energy weapons. I was quite proficient at using them -- my parents said it was in my blood -- and so it was quite the pastime for me. Whenever I had free time, I would go down to our shooting range and practice on both moving and stationary targets until our ammo stores were nearly depleted. As mentioned earlier, however, my family was quite strict, and so any time I would mess up, I would be berated endlessly by my father, and my mother would do nothing but ignore it and pretend as if it was not happening. As one can imagine, this was not the BEST household to grow up in. And as such, I grew up to be a very mischievous and overly energetic child, striving to be everything my parents were not. As a teenager, I did very unruly things, like defacing public property and wearing clothes labeled as ‘inappropriate’. I snuck out at night, hung out with the wrong people, and was on my way to going nowhere in life. It was only in my late teens that I realized I was ruining my life, and so I had no choice but to join the Idaran military, in hopes of being able to make some sort of living, and perhaps even gaining some glory in the process. My father went on as he would about how it was my destined path all along, which I of course ignored, and my mother congratulated and encouraged me on my path, etcetera, etcetera. Anyway, about four years ago I went through the necessary steps to join the military, and got into the Hegemonic Military Academy with no small measure of opposition. People who knew me from when I was still a bad kid didn’t want me in the military, but I was tenacious, and pushed through. The Military Academy was extraordinarily difficult as well, and with all its taxing physical and mental demands, I almost quit. I never did, however, and in fact I applied for and was accepted into special forces training, specifically sniping. I certainly have the eyesight for the job, and I had demonstrated excellence with firearms, specifically energy weapons, in the first two years in the academy. This training was even harder, but I never ever gave up, for I knew I would have nowhere to go if I did, and my family would be utterly disappointed in me. I wanted to prove that I could do it, so I did. I worked as hard as possible, and finally, after four years, I’ve finished. I’m done with the training and I’m a full-fledged member of the Imperial Guard. Life ahead is going to be tough, but I think I can do it...no, I -know- I can do it, and I won’t let anyone stop me! This is a new chapter in my life, and I am determined to write it well...
Attitude
Despite her extraordinarily hyper and cheery attitude, Xul can be quite serious when she has to be. She's quite the sniper, and it's evident in the way she notices just about everything that one could possibly see in her line of sight. As a person trying to turn her life around, she has multiple slip ups when it comes to doing 'bad' or 'naughty' things, and often feels very regretful afterward.
