Dokhagn Leto
Return to The Plague of Lumeaux
Creator: Spearmint
Roleplay: The Plague of Lumeaux
Nickname: Do
Name: Dokhagn (Do) Leto
Gender: female
Age: 49
Race: Storm Gargoyle
Skills and Affinities: No magic ability, but strong and near-immune to electricity and stormy conditions. Decent fire and heat resistance. Great glider, also good at climbing (uses hooks on wings).
Weapons and/or Equipment: Dokhagn uses whatever is in her surroundings as a weapon. Her strength allows her to throw objects at great speed, meaning even a pebble can deal damage in her hands. One of her proudest achievements is defeating a sparring partner with a well-placed beetle. As for equipment, Do carries a rucksack with some water, food, clothing, a musical instrument called a huhnvel, and a crudely carved stone figure that depicts Averah Xenah using a lightning bolt to scratch his back. Because yes, Do's idea of respect is believing Averah is smart enough to use his powers creatively.
Appearance: Dokhagn's skin is the dark grey (nearly black) of the edge of a piece of parchment slowly turning to ash above a flame. She has silver eyes and powerful wings that she spreads whenever she wants to intimidate others (admittedly, it doesn't often work, as most people she interacts with are also Storm Gargoyles). Do stands a bit above average. That is to say, at 7'11".
Personality: Do is a hard worker. She identifies most with a stalactite dripping water, carving out a hole in the rock below as the years pass. Once she sets her mind to something, whether it's being able to glide for hours straight or learning to fight with unconventional weapons like splinters of wood, she toils away until she is satisfied with her progress. But if the task is too difficult or impossible for her, she can become disheartened and become mired in a sense of incompetence. Do treats friendship similarly; if she sees someone she wants to befriend, she will persist in talking to them until they respond. She is not one who would, as they say, "get the hint" that someone's not interested. Yes, she is considered a pest by more than a few other Storm Gargoyles.
Backstory: As a child, Do attempted to eat a chunk of the Chieftain's stone manor. Her mother was there to provide gliding lessons to the children of Xetokh's favored nobles. As the children soared around the peak of the mountain, Do got bored, wandered off, and tried to munch on a particularly delicious-looking carved bunch of grapes. If Do had known who Averah was then, she would've said her mother looked like she'd been struck down by a bolt of Averah's lightning when she saw Do salivating on the stone decoration. Do doesn't think Xetokh ever noticed the shallow bite marks, but after that, her mother tried to keep her away from the manor. Unfortunately for her mother, being told not to do something made Do all the more determined to do it. In her attempts to enter the manor, she stumbled upon a small underground group worshipping Averah Xenah and plotting to overthrow Xetokh and reestablish free worship. Do was skeptical at first, as they didn't look like fighters, but they were convincing speakers. For the first time, she thought beyond self-improvement and started to open her eyes to all the ways the wider village could be improved. However, she's not sure an uprising is the best way to do that. Or is that her fear of change speaking?
Other: Do's current obsession is learning to play the huhnvel. It's a wooden musical instrument like a recorder, but longer. There's a blank section at the top that Storm Gargoyles can scratch with the hooks on their wings. This is also a part of the music.
Do you understand that "The Forsaken Race" is a pre-existing universe, and that Raven promises to not use any of your characters/creations in future TFR projects unless given clear and explicit permission?: Yep! Thanks!
