Character Name: Altanis

Character Source: OC

Starting Location: Mesa Roja

Character Behavior:
Atlantis is a Haughty Strategist.

She is incredibly self-assured and prideful, to the point of dismissing almost anyone and everyone else as inconsequential. Their abilities and skills don’t matter, they could never match up to her. Even when she is proven wrong, or overcome, she insists on it being some foul trick, or else her grave for ‘letting’ them do such a thing

She is, however, incredibly insightful and has a profound tactical and strategic acumen. She has many-layered plans and schemes, often several working in concert, at nearly all times and can quickly come up with more on the fly. She deigns to gift others with her insight and lay out strategies and plans for them to use effectively, to spare herself the effort of needing to do it herself.

Physical Description:

Altanis is a mix of something that crawled out of hell and something straight out of mythology. She stands in at just shy of 10 feet in height, not counting the imposing curve of her horns, and weighs in at nearly a ton (around 1,800 lbs), in a combination of size and bizarre density of demonic biology. Her humanoid torso is just shy of four feet in height, while that of her equine body reaches to nearly six feet at the withers -- roughly where it joins with her waist.

From the waist up her body resembles something humanoid, though with many notable differences. Deep scarlet hued skin, the naturally black nails on her fingers forming glimmering talons, and the eerie cast of her eyes with black sclera and golden, pupil-less irises. A pair of large horns, not dissimilar to those of a bull, rise from her head. Matching them, her ears bear resemblance to something bovine as well, and the left one sports a large silver ring through it. From the waist down, she resembles a typical horse; somewhat surprisingly slim, but packed with defined and extremely dense musculature. The coat of her equine half is a uniform dark gray in color, while the color of her natural hair and mane match into a far lighter silvery-gray hue, which nearly mimics her hooves. She sports a mane of dense, soft and fluffy fur/hair around her neck which skirts the line between regal and comical, and the hair from her head is curled into a long ponytail which easily reaches her waist, and nearly a foot further.

In regards to clothing, there is little to be said. On her humanoid torso, she is clad in an extremely tight and joins with the cap covering much of her head. It is sufficient to prevent showing anything inappropriate, though leaves a great deal exposed, especially in her back. A set of fingerless gloves of the same material cover her arms, reaching up to mid-bicep. A pair of silver bracers adorn her forearms, and a matching belt of silver rests around her humanoid waist.

Character History:

Altanis is an ancient creature, whose lifetime spans enough years she could count centuries the way many count years. If she could remember all of that time, at any rate. Once, she was a great general in the army of a dragon who styled himself as a god, and had designs to rule the world before taking his conquest to the adjoining planes and stars beyond. She was an instrumental part of his efforts, and the primary reason for the near-success he enjoyed. She personally designed and helped create the magic which would create the perverse and self-centered dream of Goreskan, her dragon lord: removing the entire 'male' part of the world's population, leaving only a planetary-sized harem-to-be for the would be conquerer and his chosen allies.

...but then it all fell apart. As they often do, lesser and more mortal races joined together and employed those ever-infuriating twin powers of 'friendship' and 'heroic desperation'. They overcame the spell-curse, and even managed to thrive in unexpected ways. It was so utterly unexpected, when what should have been weary resignation and broken defeat turned instead to new morale and hope.

They went from centuries of winning and careful application of their schemes to an utter loss within less than a decade.

And their punishment? The very curse that Altanis had been crafted was warped to include them. It had been a careful work to leave the armies and forces of Goreskan himself except from the curse, so it was a vindictive but somehow poetic fate for them to suffer that which they had wrought.

From there, the surviving forces were either executed or imprisoned for what was supposed to be eternity. Scattered across the world, and given appropriate punishment in their various prisons as fitted their crimes.

It was many thousands of years, during which Altanis was kept locked in a near-mindless daze of eternal punishment...when finally a freak accident of chance set her free.

Set her free, and brought her here.

Altanis is descended from a powerful line of demonic and hellish creatures, and shares in some of their inhuman resistances, able to simply exist without issue in environments and conditions normally intolerable or outright lethal. Her internal anatomy and makeup is also largely different, and her body runs as much on magic as it does biological process, making most of her ‘vital’ organs not necessarily vital, especially compounded with many of them not being where one would expect thanks to her physical form and composition.

While she might take offense to the term ‘healthy as a horse’, it is nonetheless accurate. She is in excellent shape, able to keep up physical exertion and activity for prolonged periods. Her quadrupedal state also facilitates great movement speed, and the required coordination to manage such a physical shape has given her increased levels of coordination. This odd body shape also lends her considerable physical size in general.
