Whatever they wear, it's always comfortable enough that they can move around easily in it. Their skin is dark olive, dark hair buzzed short. Their eyes are strangely pale--a golden-green color.

Their ears come to slight points, and their eyes are black, save for the irises, which creates two rings of neon light staring out from the darkness.

“Disobedience is the true foundation of liberty.”
-- Henry David Thoreau


Physical Description: Quadir radiates the ethereal sort of beauty usually reserved for models and celebrities. He favors close cropped stubble that defines his sharp jawline, and his pale [fuck what color are his eyes even?] and dark hair complement his warm tan skin beautifully. While he's not a gym rat, he's certainly well muscled in the yoga and pilates sort of way, and favors well-tailored business casual look at work. In his free time, he's much more casual, showing off his arms in cut off tees or well-worn jeans and a t-shirt. Even in the most casual of clothes he can't help but turn heads, and when he chooses to dress more traditionally, he's nothing short of showstopping. All looks have the click-clack of rings that he seems to favor in droves.

Personality: "Thank gawd he's pretty" is a thing often said just out of earshot of the overly earnest and chipper individual. Don't get me wrong, Salim has his own darkness, but it comes wrapped in the sort of upbeat attitude that wins out over everything. You tell him that he can't do something and that just makes him try harder. A core of iron wrapped in a pretty bow and sent on with a smile.

Public History:

  • Originally from Pittsburgh
  • Going to Temple and quite active there
  • Quickly after escaping they became active in the political scene as an activist, taking part in rallies and protests.

But I'm a Cheerleader: Goes to Temple and is quite active in cheerleading, environmental efforts, and
Magic Hands: It's not just a pun on psychic vampirism - Qadir is putting himself through school with massage.
Mad Science: It seems Qadir wants a scientific approach to all this supernatural strangeness. Perhaps you've argued over the merits of whether or not UV bullets in underworld could even actually contain the light they claimed to with that clear shell?

The absolute worst: Lux loves a good thrill. They get their kicks by jumping off of rooftops and ledges, throwing caution to the wind. Urban exploration is one of their favorite pass times. Got to find the best places to tag!

I said, ooh, I'm blinded by the lights
No, I can't sleep until I feel your touch
I said, ooh, I'm drowning in the night
Oh, when I'm like this, you're the one I trust
Hey, hey, hey

'Cause I can see the sun light up the sky
So I hit the road in overdrive, baby
Oh, the city's cold and empty (oh)
No one's around to judge me (oh)
I can't see clearly when you're gone
