Name: Lilith Blackmore (previously Cassandra)
Age: 18
Sex: Female
Class: Servant (Apothecary’s assistant)
Appearance:
hair
Lilith has long, dark brown, semi-curly hair. It can be hard to tame sometimes during the summer heat, but generally she wears it back in a simple style. For bed she would braid it into one simple cord down her back. When not on duty and finding herself completely alone, she would wear it in an up and down with a ribbon. Her hair is her second best feature.
eyes
Blue. Her eyes are oval shaped with eyebrows that have slightly high arch. She is not one who gets puffy bags under her eyes if she doesn't sleep, but if she goes a whole night without sleeping, then she runs the risk of it.
build
5 foot 6 inches. Lilith's neck is long and slender, coming down to broad shoulders. She is slim and curvaceous, standing a little bit taller than average height. One may not call her well endowed, but she has an athletic body with a tiny waist.
Lilith is a servant, so she is limited in the clothing she wears. Being a servant of the Camelot, she is slightly better dressed than the others in her village. She had one good dress for special occasions. It is cream colored with a little bit of lace that was passed down through the family.
Character: Lilith has a girlish innocence to her, yet she appears to be quite mature. She loves to laugh and have a good time, though she can feel pain with equal emotion.
Lilith can have a vicious temper. When someone hurts her, she lashes out with wit, anger, and a sharp tongue. Lilith is strong, though. When hurt, she feels the pain, but she does not dwell on it. Instead she works through the pain to become a stronger person. Lilith has been hurt a few times, but she is not afraid to open herself up again. The only walls she builds are from shyness.
Lilith is also strong willed. It is hard to get her to do something she doesn't want to do, unless she knows it is the right thing. She doesn't like the word 'no' used on her. And she doesn't give into peer pressure.
Lilith is a hopeless romantic. She always wants the happy ending and everything to be romantic.
Lilith cannot easily forgive and is extremely critical of others and herself. She is a little insecure about the way she looks, though she tries to be confident about it.

Magic: inherited from her mother's side. Nothing too powerful. She dabbles a little in spells, mainly healing and simple things, though she is capable of a little more than just that. She does have an innate ability to heal people.
Weaponry Skills: Growing up in her village, Lilith used to play with the boys so her wrestling skills became quite good. Her father thought it would be a good idea for Lilith to learn how to fight so he taught her how to use two daggers.
Character History: John Blackmore was a blacksmith in the town of Pembroke. During a was between an invading army and Uther Pendragon, John was called upon to fight. Uprooted, he left a young wife and child at home. He would never see them again. While protecting the walls of Camelot, his wife and child were murdered by raiders.
News reached John quickly. Devastated, he went out against his enemies and was gravely wounded. John hid in the forest to die. As he felt his life draining out from a gash in his side, an image of a beautiful woman approached him. "Iatros," she whispered, her hands caressing his side.
It took days for John to finally come to his senses, but when he did, he took the young Druid woman back with him and married her. Nine months later she was cold in the ground. A week old baby girl wrapped up in John's arms. She was named Lilith.
Lilith was unknowingly distantly related to Morgana, though she had no means to find out. As a child she would play with the other children of the palace. She learned how to fight with the boys, but also became Gaius' apprentice and aid. She was sixteen when she first learned that she had magic in her.
Two young boys had gotten into a fight over her and when she tried to stop the fight, she was pushed into one of the boys and was briefly knocked unconscious. When she came to, the boy she had fallen on top of was miraculously healed of his cut lip and cheek. It left Lilith feeling very weak and confused.
That night John told his daughter about her mother. Since then, Lilith has been left with a lot to think about. It explained her desire to escape the palace sometimes at night, as well as why she looked different from the other children.
So now she is learning magic while helping Gaius and learning how to be the court physician.
Additional Information:
Sample Roleplay:
The rush of cold night air against her came suddenly once Conor jumped off the horse. Here she was, home sweet home. The night of adventures was over and now she had to go back to reality of things and sleep and then get up to work in the morning. And she knew that Guy would be gone tomorrow. An opportunity for the Red Hawk. Perhaps she should not have stayed up so late.
Rose smiled down at Conor as he offered to help. “Thank you,” she said, taking his help. Once on the ground she walked near her home. It was quiet inside. Perhaps her family had been able to take care of themselves. Maybe they didn’t need her after all. But then she heard a shout from inside and she knew her brother was having a nightmare. She had not sung him to sleep, which usually calmed him.
A worried look over came Rose’s face and she looked to Conor, trying not to show it. “Good night, and thank you for everything,” she said with a smile. “I had a nice night and I hope to see you again” With that she slipped into her house and disappeared.
Rose hadn’t wanted to end the evening like that, but her brother’s nightmares were truly horrific and she could not bare the thought of him suffering. Maybe she would see Conor again and the thought made her smile before she reached her brother, who was in a cold sweat. Perhaps sleep was not in the schedule tonight.
