Name: Molly Gender: Female Age: 19 Species: Common Raven Occupation: Messenger, traveler
Physical Appearance: Molly's just your average raven -- or she would be, if not for a little defect. Feathers should be black, right? Yeah...hers' are just the opposite. Instead of that dark night-sky color she's got bright, bleached-white plumage. Her habitat of the sky keeps dust and dirt from collecting on the feathers -- even if it didn't, she's notoriously picky with grooming, and any unwelcome debris that lands on her will get cleaned away almost immediately. A single pale blood-hued eye is set into the unnaturally white feathers of her face, complimented by a beak colored with just a touch of pink around the edges. A black bandanna is wound around her head, covering her other eye, or at least the remnants of it, plucked out quite some time ago, the edges tied in a rough knot and pinned together with a hedgehog quill as some extra security. Three dried maple leaves are strapped to her head by the cloth, the bright reds and yellows and oranges of autumn dried to a brittle brown by the seasons.
Strung around her neck is a length of bark-rope, holding a newt-skin pouch to the soft feathers of her throat. Pretty much perfect if you want to deliver a letter, or if you just want to hold some miscellaneous things, and Molly has cause to do both. Need supplies for a fight, or something delivered? She'll do it for you -- if she's in a good mood, if you pay her, and if she doesn't completely hate you. And she hates a lot of people. So most of the time she carries assorted berries and nuts for a snack, or as projectiles if she finds herself surrounded by a bunch of crazy Highland squirrels. (Yeah...it's happened.)
Her legs and feet are the same color as her beak; an interesting cream color intertwined with hints of pink and almost scaly from exposure to the sun, somewhat like a snake. Blood-red talons protrude from her toes, useful for scratching, picking things (enemies) up, or just shredding whatever she can find to pieces when she's particularly irritated. Her wings, long and reasonably pretty and overly bright as a result of the sun, lack any sort of decorations, as do her tail feathers. So, overall, she's somewhat unusual, but nothing special, as long as you don't count white ravens as special.
Possessions: She doesn't really 'carry' anything, persay; the only things she possess, and she doesn't count them as anything special, are her bandanna and newt-skin pouch. And the myriad nuts and berries usually stored within it.
