Calilmalith and Granny Cal
Story: The Never-ending Story Thread^2 (first appearance here)
Name: Calilmalith and/or Granny Cal (depending how she is appearing at the time)
Nicknames: Calilmalith, Cali, Granny, Old Woman, (umm... "You bad-tempered b***h" could crop up a bit, as could "You crazy old crone")
Titles: None
Alignment: Calilmalith is a good guy but a loner with psychopathic tendencies - what can I say, she likes her space; Granny Cal is also good but a dangerous whacko - in an sweet old lady sort of way
Home: Calilmalith doesn't remember where she came from, Granny Cal says she came a little town in Kansas, she just can't remember which one
Synopsis: Calilmalith is a warrior woman. She is amazonianly (is this a word?) beautiful, brave, strong, and is fairly agreeable until a) she doesn't get her own way - then she is a bad-tempered b***h who will strike out at anyone or anything, or b) when she sees what she believes is an injustice - then she is an utter psycho. She once used her sword to decapitate two school boys and flung their heads into the stratosphere with her mighty staff, all because they tied a can to dog's tail. She has another problem - at odd and usually inopportune moments she turns into an old woman called Granny Cal. Granny Cal is a sweet old lady, sprightly and eccentric ... she also has a wicked punch. Granny Cal is turned back into Calilmalith whenever Granny Cal is verbally abused, or by giving her a chocolate chip cookie.
PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES
Age: Calilmalith is mid-30's; Granny Cal is 70's
Gender: Female
Race: Caucasian
Height: Calilmalith is 5' 9"; Granny Cal is 5' 2"
Build: Calilmalith is shapely and strong-looking; Granny Cal is neither plump nor thin, but is a little stooped
Hair: Calilmalith has long wavy black hair; Granny Cal is grey and has her long hair in a bun
Eye color: Both have green eyes
Outfits: Calilmalith wears tight dark coloured body suits, with thigh high boots, and light coloured leather bomber jackets; Granny Cal wears a comfy house dress, comfy shoes, and a nice warm cardigan
HISTORY
Pre-Story History: Neither Calilmalith or Granny Cal can really remember
Story History: Nothing yet
Recent History: Calilmalith just wants to right the world's wrongs, whatever world that may be, and that is her mission; Granny Cal just wants everyone to be healthy, happy and warm
CHARACTER
Personality: Calilmalith hates to be thought of as motherly (yet sometimes she almost is in an protective psychopathic way); Granny Cal goes with the flow and is actually pretty cool .
Perceptions: Calilmalith tends to think everyone else is a fool but she keep this tendency in check - most of the time; Granny Cal thinks everyone needs a mother/grandmother who can keep them on their toes ... and a nice warm sweater.
Beliefs: Calilmalith believes in honour and everyone following her plans; Granny Cal believes in a nice sandwich ... and a nice warm sweater.
Fears: Calilmalith fears getting old; Granny Cal fears nothing really .. except perhaps snakes.
Hobbies: Calilmalith likes to beat up bikers for fun; Granny Cal likes to look after people ... and knit nice warm sweaters. Trouble is, there is a lack of wool and knitting needles in NeS.
TALENTS
Powers: Is turning into a little old lady and back a power?
Abilities: Calilmalith is a deadly sword fighter and can spin her staff so fast it creates a cyclone effect; Granny Cal packs an almighty punch which she uses judiciously.
Equipment: Calilmalith uses a katana and a six foot staff - she doesn't believe weapons have names and scoffs at those who do; Granny Cal uses her fists.
META-STORY
Concepts: S'pose there is quite a bit of me in there. I'm a bit of a warrior at heart, I can use a sword and staff (badly), and there is an eccentric old lady inside me waiting to get out. Calilmalith is taller, younger and MUCH better looking though ...
Themes: OK, ever heard of the triple goddess concept? Where each goddess represents the three main ages of womanhood - maiden, mother, crone? (Think of the changes in Ripley in the first three Alien movies). This is kind of based on that - only I've compressed maiden and part of mother (the protective part) into warrior woman, and the rest of mother and crone together - although some of the warrior went into Granny Cal, too.
Challenges: None really ... although having an old lady in here is kind of anti-ageist.
TRANSFORMATION
How does the transformation from Calilmalith to Granny and back go?
I've pondered deeply on this. I wanted something with pizzazz, with flair, something that would make Ares jealous, but kept coming back to the same silly idea:-
Calilmalith to Granny Cal: This is like a balloon deflating, complete with' 'pzzzzzz' sound that you get when you hold the balloon opening tight so that it deflates slowly, and horrified expression on Cali's face. Once she is about Granny Cal height but still a misshapen Calilmalith, it's like someone lets the balloon go, and it flies wildly around the room complete with farty noise until it stops and voila! there is Granny Cal.
Granny Cal to Calilmalith: I thought it could be the opposite to the balloon deflating bit. Granny Cal starts to grow long and thin - into the shape of those balloons clowns use to make balloon animals. She gets really long very quickly then starts to spin and to twist around into shapes - just like someone was making a balloon animal - completely with appropriate noise. Then there is a loud bang [Kerplow!]and voila! there is Calilmalith.
I was forced into having the balloon explode for Cali to materialise as this transformation is her weak point. Any one with a needle or pin could wipe her out at the moment of transformation by bursting her balloon. I figure that this way, even if she is pricked at any point prior to the Big Kaplow, she can still materialise but will be weaker. I really couldn't have Calilmalith dying because of a little prick.:D

CHARACTER
Full/ True Name: Soriel Thursday
Alias/Nickname: None.
Personality: Soriel has a fixation with killing and talking about killing.

His attitude seems almost methodical when it comes to slaying, as though it's a kind of tactical game.

Favourite Quotes/Slogans: TBA
Voice: Soriel sounds as though he was dubbed by a kid's animé voice actor. Aggressive, argumentative and American.
Sexuality: Heterosexual.
Ambition: “To slay my quota for the year...”
NeS specific:
Perceptions: Soriel believes himself to be a dark warrior (which is probably how others judge him too) whose killing is justified by his views of everyone else. Everyone else, in his eyes, is guilty of some crime and thus has no claim to life. However both of these views are quickly changing as he works with the NeS Heroes; the groups' natural affinity for good means saving people is becoming an automatic response for Soriel regardless of his views. When injured by Knowsoul Soriel realised that he had defined himself by his sword and fighting capability and that, without it, all he had were his words. This helped him develop his views on himself further and seek to develop himself beyond his role as swordsman.
Politics: Soriel holds no real political views as he has travelled across the world, and galaxy, where so many have different ideas and beliefs on how the land should be governed. He does not believe in autocracy, however he is unlikely to follow any government body even if elected. At best his political system would be anarchy, where everyone governs themselves and roams free with no duty or responsibilities save to those he holds personal loyalty to; friends, family.
Religion: He has no specific religion, though he has belief in gods of Jupiter. More on this at a later date.
Beliefs: Soriel believes that everyone should be free to lead their own lives and not be subjects to another's whim, whether that person is a tyrant or benevolent. He believes that everyone is guilty of crimes against existence and that even children can have no innocence when they understand their actions are bad. However, being with the NeS Heroes has opened his opinions and included levels of guilt.
Fears: Although he once held very little fear for anything, when he was wounded by Knowsoul Soriel came to realised that he was dependant upon his blade and has since come to fear being so weak without it.
Drives: Once he only cared to kill and destroy everything that crossed him. However since joining the NeS Heroes he longs for self-exploration and development of his understanding of the world in which he lives. Though he would never admit it he admires Arkng Thand and would seek to emulate the man.
Social Status: Soriel holds no real social status in any society as he is now nothing but a traveller. Even on Jupiter he was nothing special, just another high school student. Being so classless, he is often lumped into the lowest class of any society he enters. He has no political pull or charismatic charm from being high-born. He is likely to simply lurk in a dark corner, and at best exude a sense of fear rather than disgust or pity.
HISTORY
Brief Pre-RP History: Soriel was born on Jupiter, beneath the terrible gas clouds that float in the sky. Many believed Jupiter to be nothing but a gas giant, but under the clouds were beautiful landscapes of rare exotic beauty. Soriel was a high school student with no cares in the world. Shortly after he left school he went off-world and visited a planet, far, far away across the Multiverse.
When there Soriel was once a part of a heroic group of vagabonds that saved many an unfortunate commoners from the vicious bandits that so frequently plague the countryside of any fantasy world. However, this simple, though charming, life wasn't enough for the ambitious Soriel. He wanted to save 'real' lives. Knowing he needed more power to save lives of note, such as royalty, he embarked on a small adventure to seek out the infamous sword known as; Teh Uber Blade. The quest took him across the breadth of this world, battled countless enemies and when he finally reached his prize, he found he much preferred killing things than saving the sorry sods. He immediately set about slaughtering the royal family he had wanted to protect and thus began his new quest of death.
After killing the royal family he was declared king and new tyrannical ruler of the planet, however Soriel was not satisfied with the role. He wanted to return home. He travelled back through the portal gate that had taken him to this world and arrived in space around his homeworld. It was gone. Jupiter had been transformed into a bright sun they now called Xenos. He never knew it but it had been the actions of the NeS Heroes, specifically The Otter that rendered the planet as a second sun. After that he went on many quests and adventures across the Multiverse, killing much of what lay in his path.
Brief RP History: When Soriel first arrived on Earth he had been tracking down those responsible for the destruction of Jupiter. He found himself in a shopping mall surrounded by zombies and a bunch of idiot people. He killed them. He never realised that they were, in fact, the NeS Heroes. Fred convinced Soriel to kidnap the women and he, along with Ford, travelled away from Earth to an alien world.
Somehow the Heroes survived and Soriel was gradually convinced to stick with them. He was beginning to understand the world in which he lived by being with them, seeing things as more than 'just life' but a crazy story world. When he first arrived at the Haunted House of Heroes he chose to aid Rachel in her quest to save her lover; Gebohq. Soriel and Rachel initially tackled the quest alone before the rest of the Heroes decided to eventually help save Gebohq. During this time Soriel met with The Illusionist, a frequent minor villain, and in the end the group tackled the great villain to overcome and save Gebohq.
Following this the Heroes sought out a treasure belonging to Arkng Thand, a man of extreme knowledge and power over the NeS. They were all killed and sent to Hell where they were conscripted by Jim Seven to fight in a war to take back the escaped soul of TotallyEvil (a former NeS villain in its earliest pages). Thus Soriel entered the war fighting on the side of Hell against the forces of Dr Evil and Disney.
However then he was on the verge of being forgotten. Many NeS Heroes were left in that war and the aftermath was a good period for the Convenient Store of the Damned to recruit Forgotten characters. Soriel, however, was only absent from the narrative for a short time but he knew it was coming. He decided to join the Forgotten Army, under the command of Twin Suns, so that he could kill a lot of things and would never truly be forgotten so long as he was a part of a large collective.
He was sent to recruit a woman named Maeve to join the Forgotten Army, taking her from recruitment at the Corner Shop of the Damned, and through a short dialogue with her they both realised that they had been Remembered. They fled and found a pub where Maeve could get a drink. There they met The Otter and Benjamin Mahir. After a brief conflict with Hero Force One, who wanted Benjamin Mahir, and Twin Suns, who wanted Soriel and Maeve, they fled and eventually found MZZT, another NeS Hero, in the old HQ of the heroic team called the Hall of Heroes which was located within Big Ben. MZZT had made a connection between the HoH and the HHH via a portal/plot-hole which allowed the group to rejoin the main cast of characters who were engaged in Memory Lane.
Benjamin Mahir, however, turned out to be The Illusionist and he/she kidnapped The Last True Evil. Soriel, Maeve and The Otter joined the main cast on Memory Lane which was when Soriel learnt Losien had become the main character of the story. Soriel's real sense of rivalry with Arkng Thand also began and from Thand Soriel also learnt more and more about story conventions and tricks of the NeS. The Heroes had to stop Knowsoul, a being of incredible power, from reaching the soure of the NeS and consuming its spirit. Soriel repeatedly fought against Knowsoul but was eventually wounded and unable to use his sword to effect. He allowed Losien to borrow Fred Teh Uber Blade, along with his cape, Carlotta, who could also communicate with Losien, until he was healed. During this time Soriel realised how dependant on his sword he had become and felt very weak. He drive to overcome this weakness spurred his will to learn more about the NeS.
AFFILIATIONS
Pets and Steeds: None.
Sidekick, followers and minions: Fred, Teh Uber Blade is Soriel's only 'sidekick'. See weapons above.
Masters, bosses and leaders: None.
Organisations/Teams: NeS Heroes.
Friends, allies and associations: Of the NeS Heroes, Rachel would be Soriel's closest friend as they spent a great deal of time together in the past when trying to save Gebohq. Otherwise Maeve holds a great deal of trust in Soriel, and Losien trusts Soriel to be completely honest and truthful at all times.
Family and Lovers: None.
Enemies: Knowsoul would be the only true enemy of Soriel as he once wounded Soriel so that he couldn't use his own sword. He also views Arkng Thand as a personal enemy and one that he would like to supplant.
