Cimel

Sprite= An inquisitive and blithe water sprite. He frightens many people due to his strange, liquid body, which he finds especially amusing. He has a bizarre knack for getting himself into trouble, dragging his unwitting companions along with him.

Personality

 * Curious; the human world both fascinates and confuses him.
 * Excitable; sloshes around a lot in his bucket when he becomes frenzied.
 * Friendly; overly so in many people's opinions.

History

 * Began life as molecules of water as part of the River Nile, Egypt.
 * His prism core spontaneously came into existence, allowing him to become sentient.
 * Unceremoniously scooped into a plastic bucket along with his prism core by Nava Rives in the mistaken belief it was some sort of shell.
 * Brought back to Chicago, America, contained in an empty two litre Pepsi bottle in Nava's luggage.
 * Learnt about the human world and 'the fascinating way humanity collapses in on itself slowly like a hot meringue in a cupboard'.
 * Lonely at night-time when Nava was out at work or asleep; so he learnt to move himself around in a metal bucket. Has preferred it to a plastic bucket ever since.
 * Met Sirrah during a particularly hot summer night when he fell through the upstairs balcony window.
 * Although his curiosity was met with hostility at first, eventually befriended the dark elf with his earnestness and clearly non-threatening appearance.

Other

 * Refers to humans by various names, including 'bloodbags', 'fleshkin', 'bone brothers', etc etc
 * Basically anything apart from 'humans'
 * He can increase in size, volume, colour and substance composition by absorbing water or other liquid substances
 * Hot temperatures or heat can cause him to lose body mass via evaporation
 * Prefers a metal bucket to a plastic one
 * Hates being frozen
 * Can digest mobile phones when other food choices are absent
 * Can produce limb-like protusions to grab on to things if he wishes
 * Whatever he touches leaves a soggy patch, as if someone had spilt water over it

Human=

Personality

 * Possibly even more irritating and eager to explore than in his liquid form.
 * Naive and blithe, possibly dangerously so
 * No human scares him. They are all tiny, fascinating ants.
 * Beginning to display more and more human-esque behaviour after becoming attracted to Phaedon Servos. He can't tell if it's a good or a bad thing yet.
 * Becomes conscious of his appearance whenever his boyfriend is involved.
 * Affectionate and gentle
 * Talks a lot about inane things
 * Loves drawing. On people.

History

 * After realising his disadvantage as a liquid in a world where 100% of his friends are bipedal humans, decided to make a human form.
 * Modelled his human form from strangers' features as they pass on the street below, according to which he finds most fascinating.
 * Eventually settled with his current appearance after Nava Rives complements him on it.
 * Had a lot of trouble walking and moving as a human - the idea of moving around on two small poles with little bases rather than sliding around everywhere is very difficult to grasp.
 * Found out how much fun drawing on things and doing hair is.
 * Met Phaedon Servos and ate both his mobile phone and crucifix on first meeting.
 * Despite reservations befriended him anyway and ran around America in a flashy blue car solving mysteries and hunting ghosts.
 * Slowly occurred to him that he likes a) being human and b)Phaedon too much for a bucket of water.
 * For some reason Phae decided to return his affections.
 * They return to Chicago as A Thing to everybody's general bemusement and incredulity.

Other

 * Loves watermelon, lemonade, kaleidoscopes and crystal windchimes.
 * Likes wearing a certain black shirt.
 * Can't drive, but would like to know how.
 * Enjoys prowling around Chicago with Nava Rives in the evenings to watch the night life in his bar.
 * Can absorb water by touching it with his skin.
 * Can store liquid in his body for later use - downed a pint of blood as emergency rations for Phaedon Servos.
 * Was taught hunting by Sirrah. Can wield a bow and arrow, although not very good at it.
 * Deft with his hands; can skin a deer or rabbit with a pen knife cleanly.
 * Finds his need to eat and drink now he is in a human body a fascinating chore.
 * Learning to sleep so he can stay over at his boyfriend's place.
 * Knows a weird amount of science that nobody, including himself, can account for teaching him.
