'ello; I'm Nevis Ysbrid. Nevis, in reference to Ben Nevis, a mountain in Scotland, and Nen/Nef, a Welsh word for cloud/heaven, and Ysbrid, Welsh for 'ghost, apparition, phantom, wraith.'
I generally find character-sheet style the easiest type of form, so...
- Name: Nevis Ysbrid (N-soft 'eh'-v-ih-s A sound between Ee and Ih-s-br-ih-d). While most don't keep to it, this is actually what I ask people to call me by in Real Life.
- Age: 21. Born September 18th, 1992
- Gender: Male
- Race: Roughly 88-90% of British Isles descendant. Other is largely Native American. While I'm human (as far as I know), everyone else apparently thinks I'm an elf, half-elf, or from another planet... or... something else.
- Location: USA, North Carolina... for now.
- Appearance: I apparently can't post pictures yet, being so new, so I'm not sure how to upload a picture. For right now... I'm 5 '5', I have brown eyes and hair that's a mixture of dark, brown and bronze-gold. Rather long.
- Basic interests: Dark fantasy, history and myth and folklore (mostly European, especially Brythonic Celtic and The Fair Folk), spirituality, video games, role-playing.
- Tropes that apply to me: Heroes Prefer Swords, Lamarck Was Right (in terms of ability, not acquired skill), Neutral Good,
