Further Details
Face:
Oval face. Eyebrows are thick and somewhat spiked, giving it a pointed shape. Always looks worried. Large, sad-looking eyes. Scales are patterned to look like water.

When they open their mouth, you can spot very sharp teeth. Their smiles are wide, awkward, and takes up most of their face.
Voice:
Speaks with a soft and timid voice. Sometimes their softness will be too quiet for people with normal hear to hear.
Body:
Takisu has a tall, lanky, androgynous body. They are still recovering from the time when they were very sick as a hybrid, so there is very little muscle. They are completely flat-chested, and lacks any sort of defining sexual characteristics, Lacks genitalia, nipples, and a navel. Skin is a medium grey, and their feathers and fur as a slightly darker color of grey.
Oricenta can change shape between three forms: Human, Kirintaur, and Kirin. This can be done at will. Oricenta can shift their hands/forelegs and feet/hindlegs to be hooves or claws/talons. Shifting makes the part changing glows and turn into a cell-like form for easier and painless morphing. Depending on how far they are, being interrupted can force them out of the shifting process into a half-shifted and disfigured form.
- Human - Looks human. Can take parts from their Kirin and Kirintaur forms
- Kirintaur/Humanoid - Hybrid between Kirin and Human forms
- Kirin - Deer with scales, the tail of an ox, and no visible ears
Has short, curly hair that raises and flows like this steam. Bangs usually cover their eyes on purpose to give them a "mysterious" look. Also to hide their perpetually sad eyes.
Clothing:
Wears dark mori clothing. Colors are usually varying shades of grey and dark blue. Often seen wearing a cloak or scarf.
Personality
Shy:
Takisu is the shy, soft-spoken sort. They dislike being in crowds of strangers and prefer to keep to themself. When in crowds they won't panic or try to flee, but they will become noticeably quieter before leaving if they decide there's nothing more to do there.
Timid:
Takisu is the type to flinch at loud sounds or be intimidated by more aggressive personalities. When seeing someone close to them being bullied, however, they will switch to a sterner (but still soft-spoken) voice and try to protect them.
Submissive:
Takisu takes their job as an oricenta and Companion very seriously. When encountering an elementalist, Takisu will not hesitate to cater themself to fit what they perceive to be their desires. For the most part, they keep their shy and timid personality, but if an elementalist wants them to act stronger, they will try to raise themself to their standards. To Takisu, oricenta are meant to be slaves, but they have accepted "servants" and "help" as better words during this day of age. In their opinion, the only payment oricenta should be getting for their servitude is the trust and respect of elementalists.
Scheming:
Takisu fakes most of their personality. They aren't truly nervous in crowds, nor do they fear social interaction. Yes, they are reserved, soft-spoken, and somewhat shy, but they have plenty of backbone. Takisu just finds it easiest for people to dehumanize them when they act like a coward. It's also much easier to gain the trust of people and learn information about them when they show weakness. Takisu is manipulative and enjoys getting personal information of people to store away when needed.
Biography
Had been living on the island for some time now to be near their Guardian, Rafael Del Bosque. After their cousin Smokey came through the portal to see the outside of Ilada, they were given charge to take care of Smokey and show them why the outside of Ilada is not all it's made out to be. After more oricenta moved to Manta Carlos and Smokey found themself their own Guardian, the rest of the Kaliinés moved here too. Now Takisu lives with their family and works for Rafael Del Bosque has his private security and assistant.
Before then, Takisu stayed mostly on Ilada with occasional trips off island. Most of their trips were to determine any important change in the supernatural communities they visited, to gather knowledge, and buy magical items to bring back home. Their family was wary of them going on trips, however. All of their trips had to be purely nonviolent and as safe as possible, due to their health.
As a Water and Fire hybrid, Takisu has always been sick. Their halves have been at war with each other, making them frail and weak to many things. Still, they wanted to be helpful to their family as one of the eldest, so they tried to help with easier tasks.
During one of their trips to Morroco, Takisu met a young man named Rafael Del Bosque. He knew of their species and came from a family of druids, so with Takisu's interest in witches, they were immediately drawn to Rafael and hit it off well with him.
Throughout the years, Takisu did well to serve Rafael, from making sure he was safe to keeping his family happy. Though recently, with the change in times, Takisu has been having trouble modernizing themself with the new views on slavery, servitude, and the likes.
After the change of oricenta, hybrids of opposing element now worked like this: their unique ability would be from one element, and their species abilities would be of the opposite element. Like this, Takisu was able to live a much healthier life, though they're still recovering from a frail body.
Active Abilities
Steam Breath - Takisu can breathe steam out to a range of 30' and have their steam target people. They can choose the temperature of this steam, up to 80°C. This steam can obscure the area around them. When completely covered by or after inhaling a lungful of Takisu's steam, your sense of direction and sight completely distorted for ten minutes. If Takisu approves, they can allow specific people to keep their senses and make them completely invisible in their steam. Takisu can do the same to themself. They can choose whether the steam is harmful to breathe or not.
Healing - Takisu can heal themself, other oricenta, fire elementalists, and water elementalists. They do this by breathing steame into the wound. They can heal broken bones, deep scars, injuries caused by the cold, and deep burns.
Shifting - Oricenta can change shape between three forms: Human, Kirintaur, and Kirin. This can be done at will. Oricenta can shift their hands/forelegs and feet/hindlegs to be hooves or claws/talons. Shifting makes the part changing glows and turn into a cell-like form for easier and painless morphing. Depending on how far they are, being interrupted can force them out of the shifting process into a half-shifted and disfigured form.
- Human - Looks human. Can take parts from their Kirin and Kirintaur forms
- Kirintaur/Humanoid - Hybrid between Kirin and Human forms

Portals: Ilada and the Human Realm - Oricenta inhabit an alternate realm called Ilada, and it can be accessed through portals from the enchantments on their bodily markings.
- The portals can lead to the capital of Ilada, a deserted area best suited for their element in the human realm, and a deserted area closest to their destination in the human realm.
- 1 portal can be made every 2 weeks.
- Takes about 10-15 minutes of complete focus to make a stable portal.
- At best, a lack of focus or rushing the portal will send them to the wrong destination in the realm they are going to.
- At worst, the portal will be unstable, painfully ripping their body and mind apart until there is no trace of them left.
- Non-oricenta need permission and an oricenta accompanying them to enter through a portal.

- Passive healing allows them to recover from wounds and sickness faster than a human.
- If injured, as long as their aolin is safe and fueled, they will automatically heal as much as their magic is capable of.
- Fatal damage will force their body into an "emergency mode" that puts all of its resources into healing, leading to the fatigue, and if pushed too hard, unconsciousness.
- Active healing abilities allow them to quicken the recovery process in exchange for more energy.
- Elementalists of their element can give comments to an oricenta, with the degree of force being connected to their control of their element, their relationship with the oricenta, and how uncharacteristic a task is. This ranges from a slight nudge to mind control.
- Asking an oricenta to do things they'd fight against, using a stolen aolin, commanding an oricenta to murder, or bringing harm to an oricenta can damage the bond, either with the specific oricenta or with all oricenta as a whole.
If a Guardian and Companion decide the bond is not working out for them, they can return to Ilada to get it broken, immediately removing all of the magical effects.
- Commands by the Guardian overrides commands by other elementalists
- A constant and mild empathy effect
- Can speak to each other telepathically
- Can tell where the other is
- The longer the bond lasts, the more the oricenta becomes like their elementalist's species, in power and appearance
Weaknesses
Fire Oricenta Weaknesses -
- Feels an almost irresistible pull to be in hot and dry areas. The longer they are away, the more their mental and physical health degrades. Must set themselves aflame for 20 minutes daily to not degrade
- Can only digest burnt food; firewood, burnt meat.
- Can only safely interact with warm, or more preferably, burning hot water
- More fragile than humans, but not to an extreme extent. Rough interactions leave bad bruising
- Cold halves movement speed. Being in the cold for 30 minutes to an hour can lead to death by freezing. Mild chilliness (15 degree Celsius or slightly below) will not kill them
- Takes double the damage from water magic.
- Damage to their aolin makes their magic weak and unstable. Severe damage or removal leads to the loss of their elements, magic, and will to live.
- Oricenta do not age. However, an oricenta who has overused their magic, or who has a severely damaged aolin will begin to age quickly. This aging does not revert.
- Upon death, an oricenta's unique abilities are contained within the aolin. Those possessing it can harness those powers, or consume the aolin to gain the power for themselves. Aolins without owners will be transported back to Ilada for absorption.
- When their No Element enchantment is activated, they can digest anything a carnivore and herbivore could eat. If they turn off the enchantment, food that strives too far from their element will still turn off their powers until it is out of their body. They produce pellets of undigestible material.
- Non-bonded oricenta are always affected by this, bonded ones are only affected by eating things that are too much of the opposite; Fire oricenta eating soup, Air oricenta eating something really dense.
