Appearance
Aqihlih
Aqihlih seems to have the same typical appearance of any young Yludih, her crystals are plain and without any distinct difference to them. She is roughly 6 feet in size, weighing something close to 170 pounds. She has yet to put in any effort in regards to unlocking the gate of her true self, though she isn't quite sure of the reason why herself.
Laurel Zyq'Ufnaj
Her Biqaj form, the one that was created upon her birth after seeing her mother, is the form that Aqihlih has been familiar with the longest. Even her natural form is a little strange compared to the creature that is Laurel. Laurel is a perfect Biqaj in form. With tapered ears and eyes that flicker in multiple colors she looked and talks like that of a pure Biqaj. As Laurel her form is a bit more squat, stooping downwards a couple inches. This gives her a slightly shorter as well as slightly pudgier appearance that she often uses to appear endearing. Her hair is usually in a long braid, locks of deep brown that border on black tied together and swung over her shoulder. She tends to wear clothing that focuses on its lightness and ability to breathe, while also protecting her from the sun. Her expressions are a lot brighter when compared to the stormy attitude of Fox Glove. It's almost impossible not to see a smile on her face, and when there isn't one it's usually because she's pulling some big, fake crocodile tears. She does occasionally take a somber tone during her work, especially when dealing with those who are very sickly. Or at least it appears she does. She usually puts on a bright expression for those that are the worst off, trying to cheer them up.
Fox Glove, aka 'Doctor Snips'
Fox Glove seems to be a normal human woman in appearance. Being as she remains 6 feet in height she has a willowy kind of build that gives her a kind of elegance as well as the ability to tower over a good number of her victims. Her hair is a shade of ombre with hints of cinnamon like high lights. Her hair is usually pulled back into either a bun or a pony tail giving her a professional no nonsense kind of appeal. Her eyes in this form are actually an extremely rare colors for humans, amber. Her clothes tend to range anywhere from business attire to rain gear depending on just how much blood she is expecting to shed on any given day. It's obvious when she's in a bad mood as Fox Glove, in deep contrast to Laurel, wears her expressions on her sleeve. When upset her scowl is usually deep, creasing all of her features into a disappointed grimace. This look doesn't even begin to disappear until she's started tearing into her work. Sometimes literally given how foul her mood can become. Unfortunately for most this glower seems to be fixed on the expression of the woman, never does she seem able to express any kind of joy or anything besides a resounding distaste when in this form. For those that are aware of Fox Glove's nature then they know this is greatly reflective of her opinions of fleshy beings and her distaste having to be around them all the time.
Fox Glove was the second form that Aqihlih ever learned to use, something her parents taught her when she was young but was only able to perfect after living with Him for a while.
Personality
The core of Aqihlih's nature is best described as fluid, she's an actor that can even go as far as to trick herself and because of this, she's often left believing she has the nature of the character that she's playing. Around other's of her kind, however, most of these acts seem to drop along with her various defense mechanisms she's built up. Aqihlih is little more than a frightened child who can barely understand the world around her. She doesn't understand the mortal races, nor their distaste for the Yludih. Feeling a rightness in the "eye for an eye" mentality Aqihlih has become bitter towards anything that isn't made of crystal, be it sapient or not. Beings of flesh do little more than cause her agony, they always have. So she turns to her own people and hopes to find a place where she can fit in. One of the things that's common to the nature of all her forms is a deeply rooted curiosity. She wants to know how the world works, she wants to pick it apart, break it into little bits, and then put it back together because she knows how now. Of course, as much as she'd love to see how the Yludih works she has too much a love for her fellows. Instead, she focuses on divulging the secrets of flesh instead of crystal. Only once did she had the smart idea to try and experiment on herself. It nearly ended up with her getting discovered and she decided never to do it again.
As Laurel, Aqihlih acts with the lightness of her nature. Her words, her touch, her voice all become gentle and sweet, a honey coated lure to aid in the act of trying to earn trust. It's hard to peer past the deceptively sweet smile of Laurel, but it's best not to be fooled. There's a reason this form's name is a reference to the deadly Mountain Laurel. After being named as a Yludih, this was the second name that her parents gave to her. She puts in the effort to pretend that she's a pure Biqaj, which isn't as hard as it might be considering she knows the language by heart. It occasionally becomes harder when she doesn't really have a family to fall back on. Instead, she simply tries to charm and dazzles those around her. The main source of income for Laurel is her work as a free lance doctor, trying to help out medically wherever someone wants to take her. Of course, most of her practices come from the successes of Fox Glove's experimentation. Laurel tends to be an upstanding citizen and woman, seemingly being charitable and willing to help out anyone. But that's because working with a large variety of people helps you keep tabs on them. Tabs like, who would care if this person went missing or how hard it would be to spirit them away. For all her charm, when she's out and about drinking with other she pretends to get drunk. It's fun to drink and swear like a sailor, laughing with everyone else, while knowing you won't do any of the stupid thinks half of your drunk "friends" will.
Fox Glove is the embodiment of all of Aqihlih's hatred for the world around her. Fox Glove herself, having earned the name Doctor Snips, tends to be malicious and enjoy the suffering of others. Fox Glove because the nature of her 'job' believes that she doesn't have as much use for tact as Laurel might. In spite of that, she actually has the biggest income of her two forms, considering that dirty work tends to make more when living in the city of pirates. The honest nature of Laurel's work could never keep up. The reason that Fox Glove has the nickname of "Doctor Snips" is that she tends to take patients, willing or not, and try to figure out new forms of medication. How quickly can you kill a human with certain kind of toxins? How long can you stave off death? Is there a way to clean the blood? Perhaps a human might be able to live without its heart. Fox Glove revels in her ability to answer her own sick curiosity by experiment on the flesh bound creatures. If she ever comes across another Yludih when she's "acquiring" patients she tends to let them go under the threat they never reveal her or what she's doing. She has a certain soft spot for her own kind, but thanks to the fact that she herself can change her face she doesn't really fear discovery as much as she should. The one secret she fears being discovered is exactly what she is.
