PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Evelynn's can be seen wearing a Grey or Black outfit, reminiscent of a dress like suit, during business hours. Out of hours, or when others visit her and she doesn't care for suits, can be seen wearing a rather skimpy top with leggings and a short jacket. Whilst this is often reserved for her more "special" clients, she can often be seen out and about in this more "Casual" attire.
Her silver hair is never tied back, as she often prefers it to hang free, down to the small of her back. This often stands out, but not nearly as much as her reflective, geometric, purple tinted glasses, or her snake like yellow eyes. Standing taller than some, with barely any muscles defined, she can be considered weak. This true for the most part, but she has a secret weapon hidden on her at all times.
On both hands are elongated decorative claw styled nail that progresses up her fingers. These strange accessories can be elongated at will, long enough to stab through light armor and even durable enough to endure a couple of hits from strong or sharp melee weapons. Aside from the claws, she possesses a blaster pistol on her side, usually with her dress suit. However, she does have 5 though personal security personal around her at all times so even without a blaster on hand, she can easily be tossed on in case things go bad. When situations call for a stealthier touch, she does carry a specially made lipstick that has a heavily revised version of the Blood Boiler poison in solid form.
INVENTORY
- Viper Lashers: Cybernetic whip-like appendages forged from lightsaber-resistant alloys, the Viper Lashers can coil defensively or strike with deadly precision at Viper's command. Retractable into her back, they serve as both concealed weapons and shields, making her unpredictable in combat.
- Extendable Claws: Hidden beneath her hands, these razor-sharp claws extend magnetically in an instant, capable of cutting through armor and flesh alike. They allow Viper to switch from elegance to brutality in a heartbeat, ideal for surprise assassinations.
- Blood-Boiler Assassin's Lipstick: A deceptively luxurious lipstick laced with a deadly poison that causes excruciating death to anyone it touches. It is discreet, beautiful, and nearly impossible to detect—perfect for silent eliminations.
- Golden Viper Mark II: A sleek, gold-and-violet luxury frigate built for both speed and stealth, equipped with advanced cloaking, heavy shielding, and modest weaponry. It doubles as Viper's mobile palace and escape vessel, letting her travel the galaxy untouchable.
PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS
During business hours, Viper adopts the guise of the galaxy's most intoxicating executive, a figure who commands entire rooms with little more than a glance. She is impeccably dressed, radiating confidence and danger in equal measure, her words carefully measured to ensure compliance without ever raising her voice. She negotiates with charm as much as with intimidation, and every smile hides sharpened intent. Her meetings often feel like performances, where rivals and allies alike leave uncertain whether they have made a deal or signed their death warrant. Viper thrives in this space—calm, collected, and always in control—using her intelligence and charisma to keep her criminal empire flowing smoothly.
In combat, her demeanor shifts into something far more primal, elegant, and lethal. With her Viper Lashers wrapping and striking like venomous serpents, her Extendable Claws slashing with fluid brutality, and her Blood Boiler Lipstick serving as a deadly kiss of assassination, she turns battle into a display of cruel artistry. She moves like a dancer, weaving pain into every strike, savoring the terror in her opponents' eyes before finishing them with precision. While she rarely dirties her hands when subordinates can do the job, she relishes moments where she can personally remind enemies why her name is spoken in fear. Out of business hours, Viper indulges her hedonistic streak, surrounding herself with luxury, fine art, exotic Spice, and the company of those who she finds most interesting. Yet even in her most decadent moments, she remains calculating, always listening, always watching, always twisting pleasure into another means of power. To her, there is no true separation between leisure and business—every hour is another opportunity to tighten her grip on the galaxy.
STRENGTHS
- Due to her business empire and many dealings, she had developed a cunning nature to herself, allowing her to squeeze out better deals from her partners or clients.
- Having undergone many surgeries and alterations to her body in the way of chemical modifications, her blood possesses a slightly venomous quality. This can be used through stealthy means to poison her foes after lowering their guard.
- In addition to her many surgeries and treatments, she had gained a slightly resistance to most poisons that can be consumed or injected. This makes her harder to assassinate or weaken.
WEAKNESSES
- Having met many in the past that take her for granted, or disrespect her, she is quick to correct this by any means necessary. Even if they have to "disappear" for a while.
- Due to her rather large empire, many have tried to become more than clients or business partners, however, shortly afterwards of getting with the venomous Crime Lord, they "Vanish," being discovered many weeks or months later deceased. However, Female Partners tended to remain around much more frequently than Male Partners. This fact has driven off clients in the past.
- She highly dislikes boring clients and business partners in both her Legal and Illegal lives. Due to this, she tends to like the more expressive client, or even clients that fight for a good investment. However, she still has a tipping point and will use her weapons or personal security to dispose or remove them.
HISTORY
Born a Pure Human, Evelynn was always considered an odd and unsettling child. Where most younglings sought the company of friends, she found comfort in snakes, lizards, and the reptilian races that most humans avoided. This affinity stemmed from the cold cruelty of her birth parents, whose neglect and abuse left her scarred and distrustful of her own kind. Shuffled from one broken home to another, Evelynn quickly became known as an outcast—quiet, watchful, and simmering with a bitterness far beyond her years. Her life changed when a band of spice runners discovered her wandering alone on their territory. Most would have cast her aside, but the gang's leader, Zanita "No Name" Cimo, a hardened Trandoshan mobster, saw something different. Having failed to hatch clutches of her own, Zanita took the girl in, raising her not only as a surrogate daughter but as a future heir to her criminal empire. Evelynn, for the first time in her life, found a place where her serpentine instincts were not shunned but encouraged.
Her rise to power was not without blood. A botched deal ended in violence, and a fragmentation grenade left Evelynn's face scarred and her eyes shredded by shrapnel. As she drifted in and out of consciousness, Zanita demanded the city's best surgeon within the hour. Offered the chance to receive cybernetic replacements—enhanced eyes with precision vision—Evelynn refused. She craved something more natural, more primal, something that reflected the predator she believed herself to be. Through black-market connections, she underwent a painful and drawn-out surgery, emerging months later with reptilian eyes: glowing yellow irises split by narrow slits. When she unveiled them to Zanita, the old Trandoshan's approving smile was the closest thing to love Evelynn had ever known.
By the time she reached twenty, fate struck again—Zanita's failing health forced her into long-term hospitalization, and Evelynn was declared her successor. Sliding into the role with unnerving ease, she embraced the dual mantle of crime lord and weapons dealer. Designing her own arsenal and weaving her venomous aesthetic into her outfits, Evelynn built an identity that was as much a brand as it was a warning. Over the years, she expanded far beyond Zanita's initial operations, branching into spice, smuggling, assassination contracts, and black-market arms sales. Sixteen years later, her syndicate had grown into a vast and interconnected empire, spanning planets across multiple systems. No longer the broken child abandoned by her parents, Evelynn "Viper" Ostium had become a name feared across the galaxy—a woman whose serpentine eyes watched over a kingdom of shadows and blood.
