Modern Legend of Zelda (OOC + SU)

The Mermaid Character(Forgive me, I don't remember who wrote that profile): I'll know more about wether or not I can accept this profile after it's been completed. A few notes that I do have are that I'm not sure how I feel about a guardian of whatever is in Lake Hylia be a student at the school for one, because she would be pretty young to be trusted with ancient important secrets. Maybe, if she were posing as a student for some reason?

Taboo Sho (Zer'Dag): I actually really like the idea of this character. It kind of has a Dark Link or Fierce Diety feel. One comment that I'd like to make is that if he died 10 years ago, how could the dark lord have done this to him from his imprisonment, plus this is a very strong character so you'll have to be careful to not god mod with him. I will be watching for it.

BK-201 (Shuya Takeda): I'm having a hard time fitting this character with not only the feel of LOZ (even if this one is modornised, it is still set in Hyrule) I do have a few colonies of undead type of creatures set deep in the desert and am thinking of adding more than just the Drakul (who are more vampiric). The race I want to add are very zombie like, where their immortal but their bodies are decomposing because technically they are dead. These characters are meant to be mostly evil though. Cudos for thinking outside the box... But I do feel that your character should be revised just a little to fit more with this particular plot.

Angel (numbuh 1-7-5): I'm going to disagree with Wayward here and say that I love this character. Yes, I'd smart him up just a titch to make him more useful as one in a leadership position but I like the idea of a race that values brawn over brains and chosing a tougher leader for that reason alone rather than by intelligence.

Wayward: Thanks for writing that. I'll add it to the plot

Bio:
Lyra literally doesn't remember the first 10 years of her life. All she knows is that she was had the misfortune of being found and enslaved by the Drakul people at the age of 10. She couldn't be sure if asked and she refuses to talk much about the experience. Eventually, they had planned on eating her (along with children of a few other races that were also captive) but at an age so young, children are apparently not quite as satisfying for the savages to eat. Most Drakul captives are kept alive until they are considered at their prime before eaten. This age varies depending on the race. How they are kept until that age also varies on race.
The first night Lyra remembers was the night she was found by some Drakul scouts in the dead of night. Apparently they found her sleeping body near an oasis in the desert and assumed she was dead. She awoke from pain and shock of one of them biting her arm, assumed trying to eat her. When she awoke, she was instead taken captive, being tied up to a staff where three other children were already tied (a zora and two gorons). Upon reaching the Drakul hideout, Lyra never saw any of those children again. She was given to someone considered one of the Drakul leaders. She was deemed too young to be eaten and was instead put to work, so she could remain healthy until the day that she would be old enough. During that time, she experienced some horrible things. She was punished often and taught to fear her captors or the consequences of disobeying them. She was not permitted to leave her area of the cave let alone leave the colony all together. She never once during that time saw the sun. During this whole time, she planned to escape. She just waited for the opportune moment. Finally, the moment arose on the second year of her captivity. It was a holiday for their people, her captors and the whole colony was distracted by the festivities. Lyra used the festivities to her advantage, sneaking a drug (normally used to kill 'livestock') into her masters food. As soon as the drug took effect, Lyra left his home for the first time in two years. From there, she made a break for it, running as quickly as she could to get as far away from the caves as she could before her dead caregiver was discovered. She either ran or walked through most of the day, knowing as soon as the sun fell the surch for her would begin if not sooner.
Just as the sun fell, she was discovered by a different kind of people. At first, she didn't trust them though they treated her with kindness. It was two women with tanned skin, golden eyes, and red hair. They spoke to her in a language she understood, saying that they were not going to hurt her and she was going to be ok. They took her to the Gerudo Villiage where she was taken to a woman who once led the Gerudo named Saria. Saria took Lyra in, had her fed, and bathed before allowed to rest. When Lyra woke up, Leah tried to speak with her and learn her story but all Lyra could answer for most of her questions was "I don't know" and "They'll come for me. I have to leave."
She was reassured over and over again that she was safe, that the Drakul didn't dare enter Gerudo valley unless they had a death wish because they were protected by dragons. Over time, Lyra was calmed and the task of descovering her identity began. Though posters were put out, no one ever claimed Lyra and she became increasingly attatched to Saria and the other people she lived with. Eventually, Saria gave her the name Lyra and stopped the search.
She became known around Gerudo Valley as the orphan who survived savage captivity. This was something few people could say they have accomplished. No one could ever get her to talk about the experience and she suffered nightmares for years after her escape.
Because Lyra knew nothing about her life or real age, she was assumed to be twelve. The day of her rescue from the desert became her 'birthday' because she considered it the day that her life truly began. On the night of her sixteenth 'birthday', Lyra woke feeling uneasy. She had just had a nightmare of her past and had troubles going back to sleep. Instead, she rose from her bed to go get a glass of water. She was met by a terrifyingly familiar face when she opened her bedroom door. The Drakul creature pounced before she had a chance to call for help, placing a cold hand over her mouth and holding her close, jumped out her bedroom window. There, she saw at least 3 more of them. Her worst nightmare had come true. The fear and dismay she felt could have killed her as she was dragged out of the Valley. It was then that she heard a voice in her mind. All that was said was "Help is on the way. You must be brave, Lyra." It was a male voice, but it sounded so familiar. It gave her courage to fight back, utilizing the training she had received from Saria during the time that she lived with them. She was outnumbered and out skilled and knew she couldn't win but had to buy some time. It wasn't long before help did arrive. It was Saria along with some of her guards. Lyra's kidnappers were all killed and the matter was then deemed more serious. Saria had to be sure that a kidnapping attempt would not be repeated, the case was taken to King Ace the first thing the following morning and arrangements were taken for scouts to go to the Drakul caves to negotiate Lyra's freedom.
An ambassidor from the Drakul came back with Ace's and Saria's scouts to negotiate the terms. Upon arrival, the scout recounted to the Gerudo King, along with Saria, the murder Lyra had committed on the day of her escape. Though it was argued by Saria that it was Lyra's right to defend her life, under Drakul law, self defense didn't matter. On their land, she was property and she broke two laws, one being Murder and the other being theft (by running away). Both of these crimes were punishable by death. To save her from this fate without open conflict, the king of the Drakul demanded trial. However, a 'trial' in their culture was much different than in most. In their culture, a Trial of Law was a fight to the death against the king himself. At sixteen years old, Lyra accepted the challenge and was given 6 months to prepare herself. For the next six months, Lyra trained hard. She was a good student and learned quickly from her mentours. It was the only way she could hope to survive. During this time, she continued to hear the mysterious voice in her mind and eventually even began to respond with whoever it was.
On the day of the trail, Lyra was given the option to chose her weapon and she chose Saria's katanas the battle was difficult for Lyra because the king was much stronger and more experienced than her. She nearly lost her life but always felt as though some unknown force helped her through it. In the end, she was the victor. From that day forward, she could finally truly call herself free though she never truly forgive or forget her past with the savage race and still fears travel alone in the desert at night.
That was the year that Saria sent Lyra to Castle Town High School for the first time, to try to help her get away from the desert. After that, she returned to the school every year. She grew to apreciate going to school where she wasn't known by everyone. She knew the school as a safe place where she could live a life that was her own, not one that was full of questions and fear. Though a few questions still haunt her: Who was she? How did she end up in the desert on her own in the first place? Who were her parents? Did they leave her there or was she taken from them?
The only key she has to her past is the mysterious voice she hears. She knows this person as Inferio and the closer she gets with him, the closer she feels she is getting to unlocking the mysteries of her past.
Race/Nationality: Gerudo
Other Information: Lyra has told no one about the voices she hears, slightly fearing that it isn't real and that the constant fear of recapture for 3 years after captivity drove her insane and that Inferio isn't real at all.
After she defeated the vampire king, they stopped bothering her in honor of their laws though Lyra is still considered an enemy of their people. Not that she cares. Lyra no longer fears the Drakul though she hates them and their ways, knowing more about them than any other outsider to their kind.

 

Either of these options is fine.
