Name: Iole Blakeney (pronounced Eye-Oh-Lay)
Other titles include The Witch's Surrogate
Age: Appears to be sixteen or seventeen, but due to her slowed aging and the difference in time between worlds, it can be assumed she might be older.
Gender: Female
Race: Hybrid- the soul of a human girl in a dragon’s body
Affinity- None
Birthplace: Alexandria
Weapon: None- she’s a shapeshifter
Appearance: In her preferred form, she stands five feet and six inches tall, and weighs roughly one hundred and twenty pounds (she's a little hesitant to mention that she's reached the triple digits). Her once frail thin features are now much healthier, with her pallor being replaced by a light tan and a smattering of freckles across her nose. Her eyes are bright blue. Her hair now brushes the middle of her back and is jet black, held in a loose ponytail. She wears a blue sleeveless top, black jeans, and black high-tops. Around her neck is a small rose of pure ice that was given to her by Eva. In her hair she wears another gift from Eva; a hairclip with a silver moon and sun set into it.
Biography: In her original body, she had no way to fight off sickness until she met Natalia. The demon-sorceress had some need of her body in yet another of her twisted plots. But something inspired her. Something about Iole’s young vibrant soul fighting to keep her frail little body alive. When the sorceress asked what it was she was living for, the girl stated that she had made a promise to her late father (and herself) that she would grow old with someone she cared about and have children. She'd promised that she would live. Being the “generous” soul she is, Natalia agreed to help grant her wish. On one condition; she swear loyalty to her. Not knowing exactly what she was getting into, Iole agreed. In order to save her, Natalia harbored her soul until she could find her a suitable body. Then she remembered she had previously enslaved one of Zhadaska’s dragons. The perfect body. Even better, now that Iole inhabits a body not her own, she can change her shape into whatever she wishes. Because her condition had previously kept her bedridden, she has a lot of pent-up energy, and can now finally express it. Her mother had been un-able to cope with her, and had never been very affectionate to Iole. Perhaps this is another reason she clung to Natalia (and for that matter, Rainii & Eva) who had no qualms about letting her sit in her lap, or stroking her hair. She’s very sensitive of the feelings of others, and can read people quite well, even Natalia, who usually kept her feelings to herself. Natalia had agreed to take her on as a ward and treated the girl as a daughter for quite some time. This included taking her on the many adventures the sorceress was liable to get caught up in. After the passing of Natalia, Iole made the decision to travel on her own for awhile in Natalia's home-world of Freya, taking a new traveling companion with her; the Sorceress Nyx, formerly of the Coven. However, she comes back home every now and again to see her friends and family. Thanks to her unusual childhood, she's able to get over trauma quickly. In fact when things aren't quite as dangerous or exciting as they usually are, she has a habit of getting easily bored (a problem she usually copes with by pestering Oliver). Since passing into the teens, Iole has also become slightly more vulgar, having been said to "swear like a sailor". Due to almost losing it to illness, Iole values life highly and has been shown with a hesitancy to kill even the most loathsome villains.
Notable Relationships:
Natalia: Her surrogate mother whom she referred to as "Auntie".
Rainii Loire: Though Iole calls Rainii her big sister, she's actually more like her fun aunt.
Eva Natsuki: Considers Iole her younger sister, and is very protective of her. It's been hinted at that they're currently living together.
Kenny: Due to their living arrangements, Kenny became her adoptive big brother.
Lillith: Her adoptive sister in-law. The two of them seem to have a strained relationship, evidenced by Iole's less than flattering nic-name for her; the Old Crow.
Dante: First crush after he saved her life. In fact she displayed jealousy of his and Eva's relationship early on.
Echidna/Rena Williams: Iole's ward after losing her sanity. Iole considered it her responsibility to make sure she was never given up on. However when Rena finally awoke from her madness, their friendship was shortlived. She was killed by Guinevere while trying to calm her. Iole was devastated and still visits her grave at Leah Garden.
Nyx/Nicole Sylvan: Swore herself to Iole as a servant, seeing her as Natalia's heir. However, Iole considers Nyx a close friend rather than a servant. It's been said that she is currently romantically involved with a strange elf name Gideon from Freya (even if she doesn't actually realize it).
Oliver F. Tipp: Her closest friend after the events of The Autumn Harvester. While the two of them don't see eye to eye on issues of violence, they are always there for each other. Lately it seems that the two of them are starting to see each other as more than friends.
Special Abilities: Can shapeshift into whatever she wishes. This mostly means animals. She can't take on the form of another person, due to them having too much individuality. However she has been shown to become plants as well (she once turned into a pinecone on Shaft's chair). She prefers her two natural forms: a young girl, and a dragon. Whatever form she takes is white with blue eyes with black highlights. She’s also telepathic, and can read people’s feelings very well. With the latest advance of her powers, she is now able to call on certain animal traits without changing shape. Among them are:
Eyes of the Hawk, Ears of the Fox, Leap of the Cat, Climb of the Spider, Eyes of the Owl, and Scent of the Wolf.
