I think everyone knows the deal with this kind of stuff. Most of it is here for my and your (whoever you may be) betterment in understanding stories and whatnot. If you use it IC without a valid reason (like, your character was told/shown these things) I will probably ignore you. Really, this is just going to serve as an elaboration on Jewell's profile as well as details on NPC characters.

Detailed Physical:
Jewell's frame is more delicate than a normal human usually is as she is mostly Fae. Although usually found in general humanoid size, she can shift into smaller forms. The usual form she wears is that of a small humanoid, delicate and mostly lean; yet her body is not without gentle womanly curves. Her muscles are kept well toned from working out. Her skin tends to be generally closer to fair during the winter months, tanning nicely otherwise as she is often out in the sun.
In the night, one might notice that her skin seems to shine...almost glow if she isn't controlling that particular feature. This glowing tendency is more noticeable when she is in her smaller form.
Her skin is generally perfect, visibly free from scars and other blemishes as she uses glamour to cover these up. If anyone is powerful enough or accustomed to using such magics, they may be able to see through her glamoured appearance. If they do they will notice a whole host of scars: one running across her lower stomach from a c-section, one running from beneath her right ear down across her throat to her clavicle, two matching ones that mar the front and back of both shoulders, a wound on the inside of her right leg from a bullet, countless thin cuts along the tops of both arms, a more recent circular cigarette burn on her left arm, and various other very faint scars scattered across her body from wounds in the past. Her lower arms are of a light skin tone than the upper, this lightness extends like the tongues of flames from fingertips to her elbows.
Faerie Abilities/Skills
One of Jewell's main abilities is the use of glamour. Understood as a Faerie's magical ability, glamour works in several different capacities. First, glamour is what allows Jewell to change her size at will as well as her physical appearance in regards to scarring. Jewell can also use this first manifestation of glamour in her over-all appearance as well as the appearance of objects around her. However, this is decidedly difficult for someone as young and untrained as she is and when she does use her talent in this fashion the illusion can be easily broken. Second, glamour is what gives Jewell her "good luck" and allows her to pass this good luck on to others; included in this is the ability to bless newborn children with good fortune. Third, though Jewell does not exercise this particular manifestation of glamour, Jewell could use her magic to make her totally irresistible to a mortal.
Being a water Faerie allows Jewell to control water in its three forms. She can call to it, pulling it out of the very air and forming it into what she desires. She can slow the molecules, causing water to become ice, or speed them up into steam. She is not beyond using water's more destructive side in a fight.
Jewell has the ability to speak with certain animals (mostly those who inhabit water) as well as objects of nature. Her level of skill in this is rudimentary at best.
She can walk silently in the woods or on the cobblestone streets of a city. Her movements lean towards graceful, like a dancer, especially when she is trying to make them so.
Jewell can fly with or without wings. She'll freely admit that it is easier for her to fly with wings. If the occasion arises where she needs to fly, silver wings will extend from her back in a burst of silver dust. The wings themselves are silver with faint blue veins. When her wings do appear they burn two slits in the back of her shirt; to save her wardrobe she'll often wear low-back outfits.
Other Abilities
Jewell can manipulate mana--pure energy. She can do several things with this energy. The attack she most often uses is that of a simple blast of energy either against someone directly or forced out in a circle around her. This can burn someone (as well as Jewell herself if overused) as well as physically push them away from her. Manipulating mana also allows her to heal others to an extent.
Can speak and write a dialect of Elven.
Just as her appearance and size are flexible so is her body. While her acrobatic skills are not that of a gymnast, she can certainly maneuver herself out of many situations.
Although she used to favor using a sword she now relies on smaller knives and blades that she can keep better hidden on her body--in pockets and small holsters. When she does use a sword it is usual a longsword, of Elvish craftsmanship, or (rarely) a Claymore. She has a small variety of weapos in her home, most designed for her.
