Description
(Appearance Focus)
Perpetua is a freshly-dead corpse, through and through, no vitae flushing her waxy, pallid skin even when well-fed. Dark circles and ashen shadows accentuate sharp cuts of flesh and bone in her face, a dour look of either boredom or intense interest most often turning her lips into a frown. Perpetua stands with perfect posture at five and a half feet tall, and her frame, while athletic and lean in life, has become more skeletal in undeath. Her skin glows with a sickly sallow vibrancy. An alien and unsettling beauty draws one's eye to her, and aside from blinking every few seconds and moving with calculated ease, Perpetua could easily be mistaken for one of the zombu she enjoys the quiet, industrious company of most nights. Behind her right ear and trailing down her neck are patches of green and brown snake scales that faintly shimmer in direct light.
The scent of freshly turned grave-dirt, moss and dust trails her to waft through a space. While in polite Cainite company outside of Elysia, Perpetua conceals her grave-scent with Obfuscate. In fact, she's most often completely concealed with Obfuscate outside of Elysia, moving through the mortal and Cainite world gently and unseen. A weathered, bloodstained and resin-lacquered skull is often seen being tumbled about in her hands or rubbed idly, or stowed away in a burlap sack or backpack. While on her person, it's concealed outside of Elysia using Obfuscate. (Wits Focus)
