Zirael

Zirael is a young female Puazi, a striking humanoid species known for their vibrant, often red-orange skin marked with darker, organic patterns that resemble flowing lava or streaked stone. Puazi are distinguished by their delicate yet angular facial features, large expressive eyes—usually bright and reflective—and unique horn structures that grow from their temples, varying in shape and curvature between individuals. Their ears taper to fine points, often blending graceful elven-like elegance with subtle alien contours. The tongue, blood, and mucous membranes of the Puazi are blue. They also have a short, fawn-like tail. Socially, Puazi are known for their charm, intelligence, and dexterity, making them excellent engineers, pilots, and explorers. They naturally excrete pheromones that make them attractive to most other sapient species. Zirael grew up on a frontier colony where life was rugged and resources scarce. From an early age, she demonstrated an uncanny aptitude for machinery, understanding complex systems intuitively, and repairing starship engines that even seasoned mechanics struggled with. Her dedication to mastering technology earned her a place aboard a small interstellar transport ship, where she quickly became indispensable. Despite her technical brilliance, she retains a playful sense of humor and a warm, approachable demeanor, making her a favorite among crewmates. Her personality blends focus with curiosity—she loves tinkering with alien tech as much as she enjoys flirting with her crewmates. Practical, fearless in the face of danger, and endlessly inventive, she embodies the adventurous spirit of her species, carrying both their elegance and their fire into every mission.
