Theodeze Anthimin"Baker Extraordinaire"
❋ Pixii Kuhna | Faekind | ♂ | Voice Color ❋Trade Status: Closed
Lineage: Luca x Peppermint
Appearance:
A boy of small proportions, as to be expected from Faekind. Barely brushing 5' with dainty extremities to match. Theo has creamy skin, taking on the appearance of fine miniature scales, that is smooth and supple to the touch - a sure sign of one who is no labourer. Slender pointed ears extend from beneath a mop of yellow curls. The ringlets are thick and numerous, chin-length, sometimes pulled back into a little ponytail but usually left to their own devices. His eyes are mint green, pale, offsetting his dark lashes. The delicate prettiness of Fae is undoubtedly present in him.
Little, maybe, but Theo is solid. Streamlined is an apt word for his body, lightly toned and built for agility rather than bulk. Not that he pays particular attention to working out or increasing muscle. He opts for light fabrics with his clothing, things that make it easier for him to move and shift around. A constant aspect of his outfit is a cloak, anything to cover his back. If asked he would brush it off as a desire for modesty, but the reality is rather more saddening.
Fae can be with or without wings, but Theo has drawn the short straw and sits in an unpleasant limbo between the two. What could be beautiful gossamer wings are hideously stunted, nowhere near big enough to carry him even if he still possessed the ability. Catching sight of himself and his pathetic features repulses him, and as such he will go to great lengths to hide them from himself as well as other people. The tears in the fragile skin don't plague him with discomfort, but the look alone is enough to turn his stomach.
Personality:
Shy. That is the most visible aspect of Theo's personality to an outside force; his quiet, timid voice puts particular emphasis on the light lisp on his 's' sounds. Coming across strangers locks him up in an odd sort of terror. It's not mindless fear that drives him out of social situations, but it's enough to make him cling to the people he already knows decently well for support. One new person at a time is acceptable - a group is taxing for him. He can often freeze and choke up when called upon.
Despite his difficulties with expressing himself and communicating, Theo is exceedingly gentle. He doesn't have it in him to be cruel. There is a serenity to his outlook on life that makes him a pleasant force; he would much rather spend his days growing flowers and learning songs than getting into arguments and brawling. Not to say that he doesn't have a temper. Little things can aggravate him, such as use of certain language or a general pushy attitude. This sensitivity to social cues can make it vexing to navigate a conversation with him.
Gardening brings him great pleasure. The company of plants is usually more agreeable than that of people. Anything that reminds him of being outdoors and among flowers is welcomed favourably by him; creatures that are natural and earthy make good friends for him. Creativity is an integral part of his life and something he loves participating in. When stressed, retreating to paint or play music is not an uncommon habit of his.
His number one passion other than botany is baking. Theo is the sort that makes far more than he can possibly consume by himself, which is always beneficial to those close to him, as well as his penchant for experimenting with new recipes. Ironically he doesn't have an enormous sweet tooth. The things he creates are strictly for the consumption of others. Coming up with confectionary that is safe and healthy for native creatures is a venture he pursues when he has spare time - thankfully he hasn't poisoned anything yet.
