Q:What is a Tall Tale?
A: (from the main thread) Tall Tales are beings that come from a person's natural instinct to create a story. It's the same thing as lying, we make up stuff to keep ourselves out of trouble. In this case, Tall Tales are based on a response to a certain question.

Q: Why do you want one?
A: Because the art looks beautiful and the overall concept of this Breedable shop is magnificent. It would be an honor owning a pet from this shop.

Q: Sounds cool. Now how much for a custom?
A: 300k in gold or donation items.

Q: Wow, you got me wanting to help! What can I do?
A: Donating gold or donation items would really help me out! Actually, you can do anything to help me out: from donating stuff to just a simple good luck ^^

Name: Cecelia
Name Meaning: Celtic/Gaelic for 'blind'
Nicknames: Cece, Ceci-pu (courtesy of Hikari & Diae), Shorty, 'Celia
Gender: Female
Author: Yume Matsuri
Cecelia will write/RP in: Forest green, size 11
Hair Color/Style:
-Simple Truth: Shoulder-length, dark brown to red, very curly at the ends
-Embellished: Upper-arm length, dark brown to red, but less curlier than before
-Likely Story: Waist-length, dark brown to red, wavy
-Tall Tale: Thigh-length, dark brown to red, straight
Eyes: Dark gray
Skin Color: Caucasion
Build: Slender; Stays flat-chested until much, MUCH later in her Embellished stage
Height:
-Simple Truth: About 3'5" (Short stuff XD)
-Embellished: 4'7" to 5'0"
-Likely Story: 5'5" to 5'8" (Taller than me -_-)
-Tall Tale: Undecided
Weight:
-Simple Truth & Embellished: 40-90 lbs.
-Likely Story & Tall Tale: 105-113 lbs.
Distinguishing Marks: This Celtic tatoo located on her upper back (should go from shoulder to shoulder (can't be seen unless she wears back-revealing clothing)), a burn mark between her right thumb and index finger
Clothing:
-Simple Story: Dress Reference
-Embellished: Dress Reference
-Likely Story: Dress Reference (If somebody can help me find a better-looking dress, please contact me.)
-Tall Tale: Dress Reference
Accesories: Silver celtic bracelet cuff on her left wrist (gem is optional), 2 anklets on her right ankle
Personality: Cecelia has an introverted, withdrawn nature toward strangers and doesn't like to interact with others unless she knows them quite well. She seems to be in a bad mood most of the time and can be very jumpy as well. Those who are close to her would probably see her as quiet, a little too focused, but all the while approachable. Despite her moodiness, Cecelia can be utterly devoted to those who are willing to be her friends, and will treasure the moments she spends with them. Although, wise men say that trust can be broken just as easily as it can be gained; anybody who takes advantage of her trust are no longer considered a friend, merely an aquaintance or lower, for a very long time. Trust is the foundation that Cecelia builds her friendships off of, her loyalty is the glue that helps it stick together, but its her wariness that can keep her from building the foundation altogether.
General likes: Clothes, naming objects, silence, astrology, compliments, walking around, star-gazing, jewelry (likes silver, not gold), reading, writing, Shiruka the phoenix, outdoors
General dislikes: Granting wishes, selfish and obnoxious people, loud noises, butterflies (with a very deadly passion), strangers, Exile (1 demon from hell + 1 religous fanatic = instant hatred)
Secret wish (when she arrives): To find inner peace

Cuff References: [x][x]
Anklet References: [x]

Name: Cecelia
Gender: Female
Past Life: Priestess who, after refusing to do the bidding of the gods, is turned into a shooting star by the gods, who pitied her and her lack of good judgement.

Question: What can I do for you?
Answer: Absolutely nothing.
Concept: Highlight to read

It was a quiet night when Cecelia came into the world. That was the first wish that had been made in Cecelia's presence, by her parents. Of course, one would think it was just a mere coincidence.

A day later, she was kidnapped from her home and taken to a far away country, where she discovered her gift of granting wishes. She never did see her parents again, but that didn't really bothered her, because she was told that they were dead and she accepted this, because she knew the priests who raised her had wished it, in their hearts.

So, she was raised by the church, and by the time she was an adolesent, she was ready to work for her gods at the fullest of her abilities. In a mater of years, she was loved by her people and granted the wishes all around her.

Luxury, as she saw it, had a price. Where there was good, bad was surely behind it. Her caretakers, the priests, had made special precautions to the people to ensure that Cecelia never granted a 'bad wish'. They told them that the gods frowned upon those who held jealousy and spite in their hearts and that their beloved priestess would never grant the wish of those who held nasty plots in their head.

Ultimately, there was only 1 thing that accounted for Cecelia's spiral to her punishment, and that was the priest' mistake of assuming everyone, including those who were new the in the country, knew of the special rules. One day, a greedy young merchant had wandered into the country, unknowing of the rules.

At first, it was a small wish: prospering wealth. As the days past by, the merchant's greed grew more and more ravenous until Cecelia herself could feel the greed and gluttony of wanting more roll off of him. It sickened her, but alas, there was nothing she could do. To turn away a wish would cause her to anger her gods.

One day, she heard him wish a different wish. One that she had never heard before, not from one of her followers and worshippers. A wish...that wanted death, wanted the immediate downfall of another life. It thirsted for blood, because 'he's been jealous of me! He knows why I am more successful!' She couldn't turn down his pleading 'Beloved Priestess from the gods, please! Send this man to hell and let him burn forever. He doesn't deserve his happiness, his smug life!'

Cecelia...thought it would be a sin under her gods' eyes to turn away from him. And so it was done.

After that, things changed. These wishes started to circculate even more, once people started to discover what kind of mayhem they could do. To think, their worst enemies dead and they didn't even need to lift a finger! This made Cecelia angry, so angry she did the one thing she wasn't suppose to do. She stopped granting wishes. Stopped everything and locked herself inside her church while the world crumbled around her.

The gods, who watched all of this, shook their head. It was a pity, a shame to lose such a loyal follower. And so the gods went to her and asked her f she was unfaithful to them. She replied no, and wept. It hurt her to hurt others; she only wanted the hurt to go away. The gods, who weren't familiar with a human's heart, turned her into a shooting star. They told her that she would not have to grant wishes as often, and it wouldn't make her so sad.

Cecelia agreed...but couldn't help but feel it wasn't the right thing to do.

A more deeper explanation:

What can I do for you? - This question is most likely asking 'What do you desire?' or What do you want from me?'. In Cecelia's case, it is herself asking this question to a mortal about what wish the mortal would like to make.
Absolutely nothing. - This answer is short, simple and, to Cecelia, selfless. Cecelia did not like granting wishes after the 'bad wish', and this answer was quite the rare one from mortals.
About the butterflies: (Thanks Rain for the idea ^^) In her past life, Cecelia loved butterflies so much, they became her mascot and signal that a wish had been granted. But has she granted more negative wishes, the butterflies started to turn coal black. Cecelia noticed this, and started to think butterflies were a sign of darkness. And being a priestess, she didn't like darkness, so she started to hate the black butterflies.
About the tattoo: This was how the priests could tell Cecelia had been blessed with powers. Also, notice how the tatto sort of resembles a butterfly...
About the butterflies: The buttrflies, to her, symbolizes the death of someone and that their soul will fly away until it become nothing. In her case, this insect symbolizes the energy that was used going back into nature.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Powers, Abilities & Weaknesses:

-Powers:

Wish Granting: The most powerful of her arsonal. Cecelia has the power to grant the wishes of others, but loses energy when she grants them. The larger the wish, the more energy it takes to grant it. The energy she uses is the energy around her and when a wish is made, she gathers up the amount she needs, then quickly molds it to the desired effect. A black butterfly appears somewhere near her after the wish is granted and fades back into the atmosphere.
Holy Magic: These powers include purifying and healing. Like wish granting, holy magic takes up her energy and the more she uses it, the more exhausted she will be afterwards. Requires channeling into a focus item that is considered important to the user. (Ex.: Bracelet, necklace, boo, etc.)
Prophecy: This power is the only one Cecelia doesn't have control over and doesn't use any of her energy. Some are bad and some aren't. Her visions either show whats in the past, present or future. When she's an embellished, she will try to rely on this power more (to regain her memories).
Deep Wishes: The wishes made by one's heart, wishes that cannot be heard by normal people can be heard by Cecelia. Deep wishing takes concentration, and if it conflicts with an outspoken wish This DOES NOT, however, mean Cecelia can read a person's mind. Only a person's one true desire. This power works at HALF the strength of normal wish-granting. (Ex. :Wish-Granting at 60%, then Deep Wishes will be at 30%.). NOTE: Before RPing, other RPers will have a choice on allowing Cecelia to see into their hearts.

-Abilities:

Extrasensitive Hearing: Her hearing is inhuman; She can hear a pin drop in a loud room or a conversation a few blocks away. The range of her hearing is about 4 1/2 feet minimum, the max is over 8 yards.
Meditation: She has the ability to be able to heighten her sixth sense enough to know who or what is near her without using any of her main senses (see, hear or smell). But this ability can only work in a quiet or semi-quiet room/place.
Holy Arrow: By using some of her holy energy, she can harness it into the form of an arrow. It does triple damage to unholy or bad creatures than it would do to a normal creature. Requires channeling energy into a focus item.
Energy Surge: Using her energy, Cecelia can use that as a weapon (ex: paralysis). Unfortunately, it will leave her vulnerable and very weak.
Summoning: ***Note: Very dangerous. May lead to long-term comatose or even death.*** Summoning a god or other-realm being is very, very hard. The situation must be absolutely dire and can ONLY be used as a last resort. Cecelia will only be able to summon only once a month, or else she risks putting herself unconscious. Cecelia will never try this power until she's older and able to master it.

-Weaknesses:

Holier or God-Like Beings: Cecelia is forever bound to the will and whimsy of her gods. She cannot refuse the orders of anything that she thniks is 'holy' or 'god-like'. An example: People like Linny or Khiaru would be considered 'in a higher standing' because they are some of the oldet Tales, and Cecelia would be in-awe of them and practically worship the ground they walk on.
Hell-Magic or Darkness: Cecelia rejects dark magic or anything that associates with evil, with all her heart. But that doesn't mean they can't hurt her. Light and dark coexist, so any damage given to them by holy magic will hurt just as badly to her if stuck by dark magic.
Fear - Impure Heart/Unfaithfulness: Cecelia's biggest fear is disobeying those she respects (for example: doubting them, betryal), and being seen as impure, or unfit, to serve. The reluctance and doubt she felt towards the gods' final decision is an examaple of her fear; she trusts her gods, but at the same time, does not trust their decision.

Cecelia Through The Stages

Simple Truth:
-Appearence: Short, very curly hair, see 'Cecelia' post for clothing. A little on the pouty side, but that's only because she has no idea where she is. ^^
-Wish-Granting power is at its weakest; can only grant small wishes; semi-mild to mild wishes will result to fatigue and drowsiness.
-Extrasensitive Hearing and Meditation abilities gained here.
-Deep-Heart Wishing power is at its weakest; can only hear the hearts of babies and children to rarely anything older (power not matured); cannot always see into hearts at this stage

Embellished:
-Appearence: Still short, hair is still curly, but more managable, personality varies; any important markings or scars from 1st stage will be on her this stage.
-Wish-Granting power at 50% of its max. power; can grant small to medium-mild wishes; and wishes at a level higher will cause fatigue, drowsiness, or unconsciousness.
-Deep-Heart Wishing power at 25% of its power; can hear the hearts of babies to pre-teens to occasionally teens to rarely youths; cannot always hear the hearts at this stage, but can hear them more clearly than 1st stage.
-Ability she gained from her embellished quest is seen during this stage until further notice.

(More to be written)

Further Notes:

Her tattoo was how the priests knew Cecelia was chosen by their gods. The priests were told, years before her birth, that the one who was born with a mark of peace will be chosen to serve the gods.
The bracelet and anklets symbolize the names of the priests who took care of her, as well as help her keep her powers from getting out of control.
As she gets older, wish-making will take up less of her energy. Life-death wishes will still sap away more or less of her energy, but her holy abilities will make up for it. Prophecy will be more frequent, if not more or less obscure.
Why Celtic, Yume?!: I didn't plan her originality at first (Hell, first thing that came to mind was "OMG QUEST TIMEEE!" wink , and I knew it had to involve that tattoo, which later on I found out was Celtic. Yes, I don't know mythology, but oh well. *shrugs* I think Celtic looks nice with Cece. ^^
And butteflies? Like the ones on Bleach? Believe me, I had no idea Bleach had the black butterflies until it was too late to change it. In fact, I didn't even know that much about Bleach itself when I started this quest.

(more to come)

-Ahehehe. This part is getting revamped. ^^-

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Art Info: When Cecelia isn't in her robes, she likes to wear lacy and/or frilly dresses (if they're spaghetti-straps, then she wears a small overcoat), preferably in earthy tones. Shades of green, gold, and brown are her favourite colors she likes to wear, white and beige coming in second. Long skirts, blouses, and button-up shirts are included in her style, but jeans and t-shirts are good to a certain point. As for her hair, Cecelia doesn't pull it back unless she's meeting someone. Otherwise, it's just a big mess of curls.

Remember: Don't forget the tattoo if you're planning to do a back-shot ^^

What I would love to see her drawn in:

-Celtic dresses
-Anything on; surrounded by her enemies, the butterflies xD
-This dress with these shoes.
-This dress (with or without the shawl)
-White Pinafore Sundress with these shoes

I'm OK with anything else, so long as it's PG-13 ^^ So get creative!

Here's a general journal entry from Cecelia's journal. Enjoy...

Entry Num. ??? - Cecelia's Musings ???

The days seem to run into one another now. Living with Mother and my family has been...interesting, and somewhat of a headcase. I didn't know she had so many pets and thingamajigs (my word of the day) lying around this house! Speaking of which, there's just something about it that doesn't sit...well with me. I feel like it's growing and moving every day.

That may explain why I enjoy camping out in the Barton Plains so much, rather than living inside that house. Shiruka, Mother's my pet bird, likes to sit with me at night when we camp and look at the stars. But back to the Plains, they're very beautiful. We live pretty close to Barton (I'm glad too; people prefer to live in Durem or the Isle), but a bit farther from anybody else.

I think Mother said we lived near the Barton Trench? Well whatever. I still like the Plains better. They do seem to go on for miles. Mother gets angry, however, when I go past the Barton Trench/Plains limit, which is unmarked and supposedly dangerous land. I don't see what's so dangerous about it though. Just more of that lovely plain. And besides, Mother's wishes can't be denied, whether it be straight from her mouth or not.

On the subject of my family, we are a pretty diverse group. Though, I think the majority of Mother's children are Tahnee, which are these anthromorphic (my OTHER word of the day) beings. There's Rey, a shy little rabbit boy who clings to Mother's shirt; Aroha and Dimitri, the twin cherubs who not only give me MAJOR headaches but they like to annoy Shiruka (who doesn't like to be bothered by anyone 'cept me); Kyrielle, a bookworm of an little elf who's sorta like my English teacher; Marco, a 'Don Juan'-esque of a little fox who's actually gay but despite that he's an ok guy.

Then there are the older Tahnee: Lorelia, a shy dog-lady who likes to sing when she thinks no one's listening; Jizabel, a mysterious cat-lady who has the disturbing interest in poison and whose hands are very icy; Farore, a leprechaun-lady who likes to invent things with mother, and Exhile (*makes a gagging/choking noise*). The exhiled demon from Hell. Hence his name, Exhile.

I LOATHE THIS...ABOMINATION! I do not like him with every single ounce in me! I mean, how could Mother ever THINK about hosuing a DEMON in her HOUSE?! I asked her this (once he was out of earshot), but she just smiled at me and said, "There are some things you get that you didn't really wish for. He just came to me. And I couldn't turn him away."

Oh Mother. Why are you so...accepting of this demon? I don't understand. I really don't! He gives you minimum respect in exchange for food, shelter and an all-around safe environment to live and grow in! I would be very thankful for that, and yet...bah. It was your choice to take him in, as you said.

If you made the mess, you gotta clean it up. Or something like that.

~Cecelia

That's all you guys get to see for now ^^

Things to To Do (After Cecelia arrives) (So I don't freakin' forget!)
- Make new, crap-a** banners for the journal.
- Organize information for the posts in the journal
- Organize items (some of them are actually significant) I got for her, pre-finished quest
- Organize RP(s). *coughs* Diae & Hikari are first, hopefully. << >>
- Do anything else that I haven't already done.

OKAY. So I like to look into the future a bit. Got a problem with that? heart

I'm not any fun, you don't want to talk to me.

YOU ARE FUN, WE LOVE YOU.

THE WORRRRRLD WOULDN'T BE THE SAME WITHOUT ANE+CHAI.

It's like ... just, when I wake up in the morning, I wander around and I'm just like, wow! All these people! All this love! And I'm a bit of a freak so I DO think about Gaia people a lot - actually, I don't think this is freakiness; I mean, y'alls are my friends too, even if I've only ever seen some of you! And just, like, if you DISAPPEARED, it'd be all awkward and odd.

Like I can go a day maybe without seeing Ane and be like, ok, she's busy, but just ... if you DISAPPEARED, that's just really ... yeah.

sad heart WE DON'T WANT YOU TO GO KABOOM IN THE NIGHT! heart heart heart

Ahem. I just wanna say that I'm well aware that my thread's been overlooked by the population of the TT thread. Doesn't matter. I didn't make this thread to impress them or anyone. I made this thread to show that when I want something, I'm not stopping for anything until I get it. It may take time, and I may not get any of those 'good jobs'. But I don't care. I only care about finishing this quest and getting what I've had my eye on since I first saw the main thread.

So, yeah world. I'm taking this challenge and I'm gonna achieve my goal with the help that is given to me out of kindness and thoughtfulness. Because I know they helped me in ways that they may not be even aware of. Because I know that deep down, my friends support my quest 150%. And because I know that everyone needs some help at some point of their lives with something. This just happens to be my time.

So, I would like to say thank you everyone who has stopped by and taken the time to look at my thread and say in their head, "Hey, this chick's a real go-getter. I hope she reaches her goal." Thank you to all the donators because without you, I would of given up on this a long time ago. And finally, thank you Huni Pi and Syrie. Because without you two, this quest, and maybe even the Tall Tale shop, wouldn't even exist.

Thank You,
Yume Matsuri

I won't give up. And I will never give in. This quest will be completed, no matter how many hiatuses I take, no matter how much gold it will take, no matter how many opportunities pass me by. My quest will be finished, no matter how many people are behind me. I know I will be alright.
