Appearance Description:
"Morning and evening
Maids heard the goblins cry"
- Christina Rosetti.
In its normal apperance, Box has a head a cross between a deer and a bat, but with large round eyes fully blue eyes. It has a furry orange neck cuff. It tends to perch on things with it's feet close together. It can float, and sometimes does, but never more than a foot off the ground.
Personality Description:
"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" - At least one person everyone knows.
Box is an arsehole. Plain and simple. It can't resist poking fun and insulting people, evem if it meets them for the first time. This is part of who it is, and it sometimes even feels guilty for it. It talks like it is taking part in a roast, but all the time. But that is part of its biology. It can't stop itself, but it does take a strange joy in it.
It enjoys trickery, like many unseelie, but it isn't so much tricking people and playing jokes, but more direct... insults.
Despite all this, Box can be surprisingly kind. It makes very intricate and beautiful jewellery out of coloured glass and wire. enjoys giving gifts to friends, especially in exchange for fresh milk, which it loves. It also enjoys alcoholic spirits. It is working as an apprentice to a jeweller, and has the ability to do very fine work, and has very stable hands but its real dream is to be a stand up comic. Although shock humor and insulting the audience wears off pretty quickly.
It is actually pretty lonely to be an insult ouphe who is compelled to be mean, and Box is currently in therapy.
Species Abilities:
Near, Fae, wherever you are-ae - Box is an Ouphe, a type of fae effected by words. An Ouphe who is constantly told kind, healing words, would grow up with healing powers. Box constantly heard insults, unfortunately. As a Fae, it cannot cross running water, it is weak to the sound of ringing bells, St John's wort, the smell of oranges, and is weak to iron, all of which make it sickly. Box is unable to insult anyone who has given it food or milk as a gift (but it's okay with buying it, or being served it ect.) but it keeps this secret close to his chest. If he does attempt to insult the person (which he will be unable to) it will cause him to become violently ill.
Powers:
Haha, can't touch me! - Box is untouchable, by conventional means. Conventional elemental and physical attacks pass right through it, although it can be harmed by edged iron, void magic, and any attack that effects the soul.
Damn, i'm almost as ugly as you! - Box can change its appearance to look like things, and summon small objects (think no bigger than a breadbox). It can only do this in order to mock and insult, and not for any other purpose, and the objects quickly vanish and it quickly changes back to normal. He has a very ugly teddy bear on his work bench which it insults in order to summon tools to work on jewelry. It can also float several feet off the ground.
I have an Insulting Nature! - Box needs to insult. Words have power, and box feeds off the insults it dispatches at people. If it doesn't do it, it gets sickly and eventually, it'll die. It is also physically compelled to insult people as soon as an insult pops into his head, which it often does, especially upon meeting people. It has to insult somebody who can be insulted to feed (like he could not insult an emotionless creature or someone wearing earphones or not paying attention to box.) Due to this, life is hard for Box. It doesn't have many friends.
Did that sting? - Ever felt slightly hurt by an insult? Imagine that with a little bit of fae magic sprinkled in. If Box insults something in a barrage in a short period of time, that 'mental hurt' can build up it can cause mental pain to them, similar to a strong migrane. However it does need to be a continous attack.
Biography:
Words have power. That is what everyone knows. Words have power. Ouphes are a perfect example. What they hear in the formative years of their life forms their powers and what they must subsist on for the remainder of their life. In their formative years, they gather life force from the natural world around them, and Ouphe 'mothers' leave their babies in fairy mounds, and the children come back to underhill with a personality and a thing they must create in order to live.
In wales there is a hill outside the town of Llwellen. Town is a strong word. It was a collection of houses, and a pub. They had a tradition. If there was some slight or offence, the two parties would go to the fairy mound on the outskirts of town, and insult each other. Whoever the publican of the pub declared the best insulter, was declared the winner. It was an odd tradition, but it worked.
This mound was where Box grew up. No wonder it turned into what it did. It found its way back to underhill, only to discover that it's parents had been accidentally killed in a tunnel collapse, but it joined the court of Ouphes. And called the head of the ruling council a 'fat coward with the face of a mule's rear'. And was kicked out of the court of Ouphes.
Box has been kicked out of seventy-two different courts, for insulting members, but they struggled to harm him and ended up just banishing him. Eventually it got kicked through a doorway, and ended up on the island.
