Appearance Description: If you’ve ever looked up at the stars and thought to yourself ‘wow. That’s beautiful.’ then you know what to expect from Étoile. She’s got a porcelain doll image, with skin as white as snow and as radiant as the reflecting light. Her hair is only a few shades off from her skin, a pale beige colour. It shimmers in the daylight as if it were reflecting the stars and glows in the moonlight as if trying to become a star in the sky again. It feels as soft as silk and smells sweet like a garden. Her lips have the colour and softness of rose petals, while her voice is honeyed and sweet, gentle and bubbling like a stream over pebbles. Not that she can usually get a comprehensible sentence out - her english is rather horrid.

Étoile has absolutely no visible muscle on her, mostly skin and bone, with enough fat to have soft and rounded curves. A noticeable hourglass figure with breasts no larger than a c is usually hidden beneath loose clothing that covers up all of her skin. She is very diligent in keeping much of herself hidden, even going so far as to tie up her hair and cover it with a thick black scarf. Her crystal blue eyes are typically downcast, hidden by bangs and long lashes. It’s rare for her to be the first to make eye contact, made rarer by her general dislike for magical beings in general.


Personality Description: Étoile is cautious and reserved, a defenseless creature in an unfamiliar environment. She knows what she means to witches, warlocks, and all other magical beings, and she doesn’t know who she can trust. Her initial reaction to meeting anyone is to cower and avoid being within their reach. It takes weeks and active effort to earn her trust, and even then she won’t meet you in a secluded area or private place, always bringing with her an entourage of people who have no interest in killing her, typically security guards. Étoile has an unhealthy prejudice against witches, knowing them only as hideous souls who murder and curse as they please.

If you try hard enough to get her to trust you, it’s really worth it. Étoile is sweet and delicate, with an endless curiosity for human culture. She doesn’t quite understand much yet, so she regards everything with wide eyed innocence. Once you’ve won her trust you’ve won her undying loyalty, and she’s foolishly easy to deceive. When witnessing a crime being committed by someone she trusts she will go into denial, locking herself away for weeks on end and assuming everything but the truth.


Powers: Étoile has a natural aura about her that makes those who are attracted to her feel the need to protect her from the world. The feeling may or may not linger dependent on the person’s personality (some one with a dedication to family would likely carry the feeling longer than someone who enjoyed manipulating people.) It is entirely passive and Étoile does not know of its existence.


Species Abilities: Every few thousand years, heaven sends a gift down to earth, one of their own to provide a light. The stars share this in the form of mild touch based healing powers capable of fixing most non-fatal wounds such as external bruising, broken bones, and small to moderate open wounds. Étoile activates her healing by singing, however other stars are not limited to this method. As many have previously found, however, these healing powers are strongest when taken from the star by force.

A star’s tears will heal all kinds of wounds and illnesses, but only tears of sorrow. Drinking their blood increases strength a hundredfold, and a rope made out of their hair will never break.
The person who eats their flesh is granted a temporary youth, while the person who eats their heart is granted eternal youth. Stars aren’t immortal, just long-lived, and if killed, they will not revive. 48 hours after the heart is eaten, the star’s corpse will disintegrate into natural energy and disperse.


Biography: Étoile landed on earth merely three weeks ago, in the french countryside. It was a shower of blue-hued sparks and an amazing meteor shower only seen from the area around where she fell. Within hours, she had been discovered by a local witch coven.

One that wasn’t too interested in keeping her alive for her healing light.

For two weeks, Étoile was strapped to a table and slowly drained of blood - not enough to kill, but enough that she was rarely conscious - while top layers of her skin were shaved off. It had been expected, really. After watching what happened to the previous stars, all of them knew what would happen and hoped that things had changed.
On day 16 of her life on earth, things did change. Lights flashed around the cave while angered shouts and shrieks filled her ears. A voice whispered, or perhaps shouted, 'It’ll be alright. You’re safe now,’ as someone else - or was it the same person? - lifted her up gently. Was… she being rescued? Or was someone new coming to harvest her flesh and blood?

The answer to that waited until after a five day coma, in the dazzling white of a hospital intensive care unit. Nurses rushed to check in on her, provided her with water and explained what had happened. She already knew, of course, so she didn’t listen. It had happened before. She’d been rescued by a knight in shining armour. A human with a heart of gold and a pure soul. They still existed.

After another two days she was visited by a very official looking person, in the middle of watching a human movie about space ships(?) and sipping on what the nurses had called a smoothie. She received an invitation to attend the human institute referred to as ‘Starlight Academy’. She still can’t say ‘I’m a student at Starlight Academy’ without laughing.


Additional Information: Always turns left and will go full circle. Never turns right as it will make her feel sick.
Will be watched 24/7 for the following two months by school security to ensure that she is safe from malevolent magic beings who want her power. Surveillance period ended November 2016.
