Appearance:
5'5", slender curves, 115 lbs, long legs, pale skin, long arms, a ballerina figure and gentle features. She is a mix of Japanese and Russian. She has a tattoo of "Sorrow" in Japanese Kanji on her right shoulder. When she's out and about she's usually dressed modestly with long dresses, long sleeves shirts and long skirts. Her hair is usually pulled up, keeping it out of her stunning eyes with a hair clip, hair sticks, and other pretty objects. Her lips are a soft light pink, and she has a very kind smile. Her slender neck leads to her supple chest, her waist is rather thin and she has a very nice round bottom.
However... when she is performing she is often found wearing a beautiful porcelain mask so no one can tell it is her. The mask has golden lines and the right eye is red at the top and blue at the bottom while the left eye is the opposite, giving her a very much marionette doll look as she dances.
Personality:
Most of the time she's rather quiet and has a soft smile. Around people she doesn't know well she's usually very quiet, choosing to listen more than talk and get to know the people around her. She has a bit of a sick sense of humor when it comes to things but she keeps those thoughts to herself and just smiles.
Around her friends and people she is close with she's not afraid to speak her mind, and be rather... loud. She's perverted and charming with a bit of obnoxious mixed it. She often teases those she cares about, always laughing and joking with them to make for good times.
Lien works part time at a small Japanese food shop, and though no one but the owner knows... she also performs on the small stage with her mask and beautiful kimonos to hid her figure a bit more. She performs elegant Japanese ritual dances for the audience, but would never tell anyone.

Weaknesses/Physical Flaws/Psychological Flaws:
- Terrified of the dark - As a young girl Lien often was told scary stories by some of her friends and for some reason they always stuck in her mind and in when she is in complete darkness she freaks out and can't seem to function correctly.
- Rats - way too many scary books and movies about rats.
- Her hand to hand combat is very rough and often weak due to the fact that she is a long distance fighter.
- Memories of her past often flood through her mind when she's alone or around small children
History:
From the time she was born, in 1729, Lien's parents called her a prodigy. She loved to play the piano and eventually took up the violin as well. Her archery skills was beyond compare and she was in the top ten in horseback riding. Males swooned over her as she would pass but none of them were up to her standards. As she reached the ripe age of 21 and still found no one, her parents began to think that she would never marry. Then she met him... Hisao Takeshi was the name her gave her along with a long stem black rose. The rose pricked her finger and then he smiled a wicked smile at her. Hisao told her to meet him in the horse stalls later that night and she sheepishly agreed. He captured her attention from the first time she saw him. His eyes were the thing that captured her. They were coal black and cast no reflection. He had this arrogance about him that made her sure he would know how to treat a woman like her.
As she entered the horse stalls, she stumbled across a bail of hay and her eyes soon adjusted. She saw him in the furthest stall down in a long black cloak, shirt, and pants. The full moon cast this gothic glow about his body that made her go weak. He smiled as she came closer and he quickly grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her to him. She didn't even flinch as he caressed her neck roughly with kisses. He told her he was going to make her stronger, faster, and give her eternal life. She didn't care what he was saying, she just agreed to everything. He spun her around so her back was facing him and told her to say goodbye to her mortal life. As she finally caught on she felt the sinking of his teeth into her bare neck and she almost screamed. Her body felt as if it was suddenly frozen and she couldn't move or talk. Slowly she felt herself lose strength and eventually everything went black. As she regained consciousness she could feel her body was different. She could not feel her heart beating and yet she felt stronger somehow. Raven pulled her to him quickly and crushed his lips to hers. He truly loved her and together they were happy. They went around the world, trying to stay far away from the war that was going on in other parts, but eventually it caught up to them.
Hisao was recruited into the war and Lien was held hostage by their own kind to make him fight. He died in battle and Lien was released. Now she stays away from everything, hunting only when the hunger wracks her body and she feels as if she's going to loose control. She loved him with all her heart but now he is gone. She had one child with him but it was still born, and she never forgave herself. It's been over 250 years since she was first changed, but only 20 years since Hisao passed. She is still weeps for him from time to time and she has no quarrel with anyone. She renamed herself Sorrow, wanting to remember her past griefs and carry them with her always.
RP Sample:
The sunlight peaked through her bedroom window... seeping over the blankets and up to her closed eyelids. The young woman stirred slightly, turning over and spreading herself out gently on the bed as she inhaled sharply. The only noise around her was the box fan that was set to medium to cover up any outside noise of her apartment complex. The delicate hand rose, her nails done with a nice polish and french tipped. The hand lifted the cell phone and dragged it across the bed towards her eyes as the right one peeked open.
It was easy to tell the young woman was far from an early riser as she yawned and sighed at the time. 8 am. Her soft crimson purple eyes blinked a bit, looking around at the walls of her apartment before she sat up with a sigh and pushed away her comforter. Her pale skin glowed in the sunlight as a soft squeak escaped her pink lips. Lien slid out of the queen sized bed and dragged her feet slowly against the Tatami matted floor, sliding the door open to her bathroom and gazed into the mirror.
Her black hair shined a slight blue as she reached up to try and tame it but... it just curled a bit more. She winced and reached over, running the hot water and stripping off her soft cotton pajama pants and top, tossing them into the hamper. The hot water caused a shiver to rip through her body, shivering a bit as the water coursed over her and warmed her slowly. She gave a sniffle and turned to start showering, feeling even more tired since the warm water was so comforting.
After her shower she dressed in a long black skirt and white button down shirt.. she had to get to class but at least she had time for some warmed up left overs. The microwaved beeped at her and she smiled as she pulled out left over lasagna. The fork plopped into the bowl and she went to her door to grab the paper from the front porch. She paused for a moment, glancing around from the second floor where she was before she moved back inside and sat down on the chair and picked up the fork.
It was there a headline caught her attention and she opened the page quickly. "Oh.. Buddha help us. It's going to be so hot!" she squeaked and groaned, pushing the paper way before turning her attention back to the delicious left over food, enjoying her quiet time before she had to venture into the town and listen to all the noise there.
She tossed the dishes into the sink, ran the hot water into them as she threw away the paper, turned off everything in the apartment, shut off the water and grabbed her book bag and headed out of the door, locking it tightly behind her before lifting her skirt and carefully heading down the steps. Another hot day... she really hoped the a/c at the school was at least working.
