Appearance

Physical Description

Vellaia is a tall woman with a slim hourglass body type.

Body Features

Vellaia is a rather thin woman, with long legs and a small waist. She used to have two fully-intact, although slightly mismatched, horns; now, her right horn is broken.

Facial Features

Vellaia has a very angular, square face. She has a wide mouth with large lips, and a noticable gap in her teeth when she speaks or smiles. Her eyes are almond-shaped with purple irises and cat-like pupils, and her eyebrows taper at the inner and outer corners (the latter slightly less). She has a very angular nose, with a hooked bridge and upturned base.

Identifying Characteristics

Unlike the usual depiction of Tieflings, Vellaia has no tail. Her severely misaligned horns are also quite indicative of her appearance.

Apparel & Accessories

Before, Vellaia would wear long, flowy dresses with cloth wraps around her waist, and simple flat shoes.
Now, she wears a light purple vest with a dark purple tailcoat, black thin dress pants, brown dress shoes, and a small hat on a headband adorned with the image of a skull and crossbones. She also now carries a cane with a small purple crystal ball on top.

Mentality

Personal history

Not much is known about Vellaia's past, not even by her closest friends. The most that is known is that she was mentored into her path by a fellow bokor; though her mentor was not quite as neutral as she, as he was a left-handed bokor, rather than dabbling in both hands, the way Vellaia chose to.
Vellaia chose to hone her flattery and charismatic charm to aid her in her dealings as a Voodoo bokor, very much taking on the style of her mentor in the process. Now, she swindles and makes deals to achive not only her own goals, but the goals of her patron: the Loa.
^{(It is a popular rumor that Vellaia's mentor may have been her own father)}

Morality & Philosophy

Vellaia's mentor taught her to value the philosophy of "eye for an eye"; meaning she takes great importance on the thought of getting even, whether it be by helping someone who helped her, or hurting those who did likewise to her.

Personality

Social

Mannerisms

Vellaia talks with her hands often, though not in what would be called the "normal" way. When speaking about something that could be viewed as potentially bad or dangerous, she tends to gesture and indicate with her left hand, while the same thing applies to her right hand when talking about good things. This comes from her knowledge that being neutral in her dealings means she deals with both sides of Voodoo magic.

Speech

Vellaia speaks with a noticeable Southern accent, and tends to most often inject phrases from languages such as French in her speech.
