Image/Face claim: Lauren McKnight
Name: Elizabeth (Lizard)
Gender: Female
Age: Early 20's
Occupation: Thief, Bounty Hunter, and the Tweedle'ss Personal Side Thorn
Family: She had one once, slightly wealthy, but sadly you know how things go in Wonderland. They had high hopes like any parents, set up a nice name and etiquette classes, for their angel faced daughter. Sadly destiny had its own plans though for the sneaky little tom boy. On a positive note, the lessons make impersonating a noble a breeze, and those innocent features are a perfect ace up the sleeve for getting free beer.
Friends: The Knave of Hearts and Alice
Enemies: Jafar, The Queen of Hearts.... anyone who owes her money, or anyone she owes money to.
Strengths: Sneaky as a Lizard, all nimble feet and quick fingers. Her Confidence is another big strength, it gives her a glass- half- full attitude even when situations get a little tricky.
Weaknesses: Her big heart, sadly its what gets her into trouble the most. In several situations she placed herself in danger to protect those she cares for, once even tossing a dagger at one of the greatest sorcerers in the world just to save the Knave and Alice. It was her beating heart that almost took her out for good when she became Will's (Genie) Master, and she accidentally made a wish as she was expressing her feelings to him.
Quote: “....I pick pocket the Tweedles ever 6 months or so.”
Personality: Lizard is very sneaky, cunning, confident, spunky, slightly sarcastic and fun. Her 'career' is like a giant game to her, one that she knows a great deal how to win, and if she doesn't “oh well”, shrug off and go get a drink. She is that care free sort of person who does her own thing. Hopeful, Friendly, and a bit of a Romantic, Lizard still has a lot of growing up to do.
History: Lizard was born into a wealthy Merchant family. As an only daughter she was spoiled and given more luxuries then the rest of the girls in her charming little Town, which was a trading post for the Queen of Hearts. Lizard was only 12 when her Father angered the Queen, resulting in the death of both of her parents. At first Lizard was able to reside with family members, aunts and uncles of the sort, but it didn't take long before their charitable hearts drained and she found herself on the streets. She was in the process of stealing an Apple from a vendor, when the Knave of Hearts spotted her and took pity. For years the two ran together, “thick at thieves”, so its no wonder she gained feelings for him.
After parting ways, Lizard continued on the same path that the Knave left her on, stealing. One such heist didn't go so well though and the Caterpillar almost took her head off for it, but as luck would have it someone owed him a lot of money, and Lizard, all too eager to keep her head and all too good with words, agreed to catch the man in exchange for her life. This was how she became a Bounty Hunter, a choice that led her back on to the same path as the Knave. It was in the middle of tracking her old friend down that Lizard ran into Keening, a man with the deepest eyes she had ever seen. Just like Lizard, Keening was looking for Will and Alice, but for an entirely different reason. With as much love for adventure as Lizard, the two of them hit it off pretty quickly.
Sadly Lizard and her new fling were separated during a full moon night, an incident Lizard still can't wrap her mind around.
In hot pursuit of the Knave, Lizard almost had him until the Red Queen showed up and knocked her out cold. It was on her way back to tell Caterpillar that Lizard found Alice, a fiery young woman whom she couldn't help liking the moment Alice got her sword out of Lizard's face. After the two managed to save the Knave from the chopping block, Lizard was able to see her old flame again, and act that reignited her old feelings for him, so much so that she risked her life to try and help them escape from Jafar. Waking up on her back side in a field, after getting knocked out by the carpet flying jerk, Lizard had a moment to observe the Red Queen staring at her old lover with longing, a longing that reminded Lizard that Will had a past, one that would probably stop the two of them from having a future.
Taking off back to the woods Lizard found herself content to stay away from civilization for a bit, that was until a bottle floated down the river interrupting her bath time and revealing to her that the man she was trying to forget got turned into a Genie....who had to do everything she commanded....SCORE!
Trying her best to win his love, Lizard was willing to do anything to make him happy, even using up a wish to wish herself into a very uncomfortable dress that had no respect for her, unfortunate, wide hips. Even with fireworks behind her, the damn dress, and the best smile she could give him, Lizard knew with all her heart that Will would never love her the way she loved him. As much as the thought hurt Lizard was willing to let him go then and there, all she wanted at that moment was just to have him feel something for her, anything to help her friend break that stoney, no emotion, wall that was surrounding him. That wish almost killed her, in fact the Knave thought it did, but instead it put her in a sleeping curse.
This was something that the creature, The Jabberwocky, sensed when it arrived in town the next day. Afraid that meddling with the curse would cause it to do something to her in return, she left Lizard well alone. Laying on a cold wood floor, all dressed up like a princess, Lizard wasn't sure what was going to happen to her, until Keening arrived. Rugged, strong, passionate, Keening, bent over her and administered the one cure, Love's true kiss. The fact that he came looking for her, the fact that he stood over her with tears racing down his face, the fact that she meant anything to anyone at all, stirred something in her heart, so much so that by the time Keening began to bend down to give her a farewell kiss, her heart was completely his.
Likes: Money, adventure, the outdoors, a new job from the Caterpillar, stealing from the Tweedles, and a good time.
Dislikes: Getting caught, not getting what she wants, and upset Knave.
Roleplay Example: I did this on another website I role play on. In this my character is throwing a Halloween Party at her Master's castle and things go terribly wrong....
Before I could even react, the Banshee bent down and began using the remains (the blood) of the poor Pixie, to draw something over the chestnut floor. Suddenly she sprung up again, and tossed the remains into her open mouth.
"EWW!" I couldn't help it, that was disgusting! "Bitch, you are going to pay for that". Without thinking, fire built up on my finger tips and I raised my hands, ready to blow the forest whore to pieces, but just then the floor beneath us began to rumble.
Earthquake? Oh hell no!
The Banshee threw back her head and laughed, "too late, it has already begun. Happy Halloween Merlin's little doggie, tell your master Karetia sends her blessings". With that the Banshee shot out toward the balcony then right over the end.
I bolted for it, only to come face to face with a grappling hook, which clung tightly to the balcony edge, giving admittance to a tightly woven rope. "Oh, she is goooood!"
I shake my head, pissed off, as I turn my attention back to the floor.
"What the hell.....?"
Lastly... Where did you hear about us? I was googling around for an RP site to join, it led me to one site, that led me to another that had some link for this one.
