This woman, while graced with lovely features, has the curse of being about 8'6" tall, much larger than the average human. When she's not wearing her helmet, long, snow white hair is revealed, cascading down her back to land with a slight curl at the small of her back. She has extremely fair skin, almost pale, but with a bright glow to it, almost as if she glows in the dark. In stark contrast, she has extraordinarily intense bright green eyes most of the time, though they fluctuate from time to time, particularly when she's feeling overly emotional. Her body is toned but not bulky, with only slight but very elegant curves, toned legs, and perfectly proportioned limbs. She has a cute heart-shaped face, though her slightly thinner-than-normal lips are usually a straight line, in an absolutely neutral position, offsetting the cuteness and making her seem a little unfriendly at first glance. She doesn't seem to speak much, but when she does, she has a soft, song-like voice that seems to echo in the back of one's mind, disturbing most individuals when spoken to for the first time. She has two long triangular tattoos under her eyes and a spherical shape on her forehead. | This woman, while graced with lovely features, has the curse of being about 8'6" tall, much larger than the average human.

Description
This woman, while graced with lovely features, has the curse of being about 8'6" tall, much larger than the average human. When she's not wearing her helmet, long, snow white hair is revealed, cascading down her back to land with a slight curl at the small of her back. She has extremely fair skin, almost pale, but with a bright glow to it, almost as if she glows in the dark. In stark contrast, she has extraordinarily intense bright green eyes most of the time, though they fluctuate from time to time, particularly when she's feeling overly emotional. Her body is toned but not bulky, with only slight but very elegant curves, toned legs, and perfectly proportioned limbs. She has a cute heart-shaped face, though her slightly thinner-than-normal lips are usually a straight line, in an absolutely neutral position, offsetting the cuteness and making her seem a little unfriendly at first glance. She doesn't seem to speak much, but when she does, she has a soft, song-like voice that seems to echo in the back of one's mind, disturbing most individuals when spoken to for the first time. She has two long triangular tattoos under her eyes and a spherical shape on her forehead.
She usually wears full body, form-fitting plated armor of a shiny pearl-white hue with a strange green symbol inscribed on the right breast: a strange pointed U shape with a ball of green underneath. She has a helmet of the same pearly-white with a green visor that is generally concealed beneath the rest of the helmet, only coming down in combat or dangerous (sometimes even embarrassing) situations, covering her whole face. She has two holsters on her right hip and one on her left, supported by what looks like a utility belt.

Biography

Values and disposition
No one that knows Thalia would call her an extremely ethical person, though she has morals. She is generally very reserved, proper, and unemotional, and she values intelligence, integrity, and ambition over all. While she is nice enough, she can be easily unnerving due to her unwavering inquisitive gaze coupled with the stark contrast of her eyes against her skin and hair. She also enjoys a good read, probing peoples' pasts, and long walks on the beach.
