I seem to have a habit of creating characters while playing dress up on Gaia. So far for this one I've only come up with a few details. I plan to flesh this one out when I find the time. She's supposed to be transparent in some places to emphasis that she's ethereal, do you think it worked? Played Doctor Frankenstein with SenshiStock's stock, I cut up two reference pictures and pieced them together to make a new reference pose. It was fun. :3

This is Tuuli, an ancient Henki (ghost/spirit.) Because her bind with the earth is so old her powers are much stronger then a normal ghost. She can materialize into a solid form and interact with her surroundings physically. She can also shift into a child form as well as manipulate the mind with illusions. Her favorite things to do are singing and cooking. She's traveled the world and has learned many songs in different languages, even enchanted songs that can lift curses, bring blight, or call to archaic gods. Only a special few can usually hear her singing, but you might be able to hear her if you're actually listening.

<sub>Kauan Kulkenut (Translated from Finnish)

Where do wealthy people go?
And where do those go who are poor?
I'd like to probe the paths of the breeze,
skipping along ahead of the dark,
under the moon and over the sun.
The journey is long,
the road is full of holes,
and the fog is all around.
Born to roam,
I walk through gloomy woodlands,
headed for points beyond.</sub>
