Ri'hala Telwescane

Name pronounciation: Rey-hall-ah Tell-wess-cahn-ey

Nicknames: several variations of the nickname "Ri" (pronounced "Ree") Such as Ri, Ri-ri, or Ri-ness (she hates that one). Also, there's Hala, Hala-ness (hates that one too), HalaRi-ness (hates that one especially) and Halahala (she finds that one just plain stupid).

Race: One of the oldest members of a sect of the High Angels (The Seraphim). Her particular sect is the War Angel Sect, the strongest and most powerful of the angels, for they are the protectors, and are lead by Michael, the Archangel. (There are two sects of the Seraphim, the choir[the more widely pinned as Seraphim] and the War Angels)

Hair: glossy, just shy of waist length, midnight black

Eyes: beyond blue, like pure glacier ice, piercing, really the only physical characteristic about her that betrays her age. (she otherwise appears to be in her early twenties)

Height: 5' 8"

Weight: One hundred sixty pounds (Hey! Don't mess. Those wings are HEAVY!)

Wings: brilliant white with a silvery hue

Build: Well muscled from the zillion (take that with a grain of salt) years of training, a fighter’s build (very different from some weight training steriod OD'd doo-dah, the muscles aren’t as big and as showy, they’re more compact, with more endurance than a weight trainer's)

Age: Um...eternal?

Gender:female

Abilities: shapeshifting, sword fighting, and the gift of the White Flame (Explained in Ri'hala's History, look for the ***). This power was given to a few of the oldest, most trusted angels(a.k.a. Archangel Michael, Gabriel, Ri'hala, Lucifer[but his gift disappeared when he fell from grace])

Weapons: Long Turkish Scimitar, an Unbreakable spell has been etched into the blade, long dagger, bootknife, old fashioned shaving razor, White Flame, elvish bow(she keeps that in her room most of the time)and sometimes carries a staff(but not often)

Outfits: Ri'hala usually wears a dark, blood red bodice with the Angel Crest etched into the leather straps on the front. The bodice doesn't reveal too much cleavage, just a modest amount, and has thin spaghetti straps. It sweeps down low in the back, nearly to the small of her back, giving her wings room to maneuver. This is accompanied by black leather pants with a crisscrossed sword belt and knee-high black leather boots covered in buckles....... she even slipped into a black miniskirt once, but that was a one time thing. Almost.

Animals to Call: Ironically, like vampires, Angels have the ability to Call animals. Unlike vampires, however, Angels can Call more than one. Ri'hala can Call Canines (Dogs, wolves, anything of that sort. This includes low level Lycans, though she can sometimes get a weak hold on Master Lycans if she tries hard enough) and Raptors (predatory birds). For a time, she also worked on mastering the ability to Call the Great Ones (Dragons), but in the end she gave up. She found that befriending them was much more beneficial. (Plus, she found the hard way that Dragons have indomitable minds, no matter how great one's power is. Only God himself holds sway over the Great Ones) Currently, she is working on Calling Reptiles, and afterwards intends to work on calling butterflies (Don't ask, she just wants to Oo;)
