ALLIANCE,She was a rock
PERSONALITY,Secret’s personality is equivalent to that of a rock. Why? Because, once upon a time, she was exactly that. A rock. Now becoming a person can come with the tedious habit of developing a personality, but it’s a slow process, moving at a stone’s pace. Currently her personality can be quite cold and distant, as these new things called emotions can be hard to deal with when you’re not used to them.
So what is there to her? Well, being omniscient can give one a certain perspective of the world. Secret knows all, and thus she can see why most remedial, day to day activities can be quite pointless. She can be quite sceptical and even cynical of others’ actions and words, and will shoot things down with basic facts with the cold efficiency of a computer. Because she’s essentially that: a magical computer.
APPEARANCE,
The coldness of Secret can be quite obvious immediately upon looking at her. She’s looks human, of course, but there’s something very inhuman about her. Her eyes are distant, her face is a stone mask hiding all emotion, and one has to get used to very subtle quirks if they are going to read anything off of her. Why? Well stones don’t exactly have facial expressions.
As for clothes, well, Secret doesn’t understand fashion. To her it’s frivolous and useless. That being said, when it comes to clothes, she doesn’t vary often. She wears a purple, frilly dress and long purple cotton shoes that resemble slippers more than anything. Her hair doesn’t exactly change that often, long and gray and kept back from her face by two clasps on either side of her head. Of course there is one very unique thing to her, outside of that inhumanity. Over her left eye is a patch that looks something like a crystalized rose. If it was ever removed her eye is still intact underneath, though the color is milky yellow (as opposed to her piercing gold right eye) and doesn’t work normally.
WEAPONS,N/A
ITEMS,N/A
ABILITIES,
- Illusion Magic – A side effect of the magic that created her. Reality-bending magic rubbed off on her. She can’t quite bend reality as the mage who created her did, but she can create illusions. The illusions are exactly that, however, and cannot interact physically with anything.
- One Slot Open
RACIAL ABILITIES,
- Knowhow - Having once been a Gossip Stone Secret was able to see all the happenings of the world. She was a fountain of knowledge, so to speak. Since gaining a more fleshy form she has lost her link to all of this knowledge, but retained much of it. While she doesn't know all that is happening she does understand the world better than any. What's Zelda having for supper right now? She couldn't say, however she can tell you the trajectory and power needed to hit that bird with an arrow, as well as exactly where it will land and how fast based on wind, gravity, its weight, et cetera.
- Heart of Stone – As a Gossip Stone Secret was immune to pain. People liked to hit her to see what would happen, but she couldn’t feel it because she was a rock. Now in human form she maintains that immunity. Secret does not react to pain or fatigue. She may feel it, who knows, but she doesn’t react. Also this ability lends her an additional minor effect: she cannot die from physical attacks. When reduced to levels that would be fatal she simply becomes unresponsive until healing has been obtained.
HISTORY,
There really isn’t much to say for Secret’s origins. She started out as a gossip stone tucked away not too far from Ordon Village. Every now and then some kids would come along and have their fun, taking a whack and seeing her bounce around. All in all it was a normal life for a gossip stone. She existed, she knew all, and she waited for some foreseen purpose to come about. There really isn’t much to say here. Rocks have long histories of nothing.
Until one day a mysterious being walked through. He was just passing through on his way from one great act of magical wonder to the next, when he saw the gossip stone. Long ago he’d had the thought that there might be something more to them, seeing how they reacted to various stimuli. On a complete whim the mage exercised his massive power over reality to try and garner a different reaction out of her than normal.
Then Secret was no longer a stone. This is where things begin, this is where Secret came from, and the rest of her history starts from here. . . .
EXTRAS,
Short and to the point. She's a stone, what do you expect?
