by swordoftails

Appearance: Nilay is an all-white Pursa with grey hair that she keeps in a bun that has gold threads that span from the bottom of the bun and are pinned in the center with a pin that’s topped with a gem from Alver’s Hallow that’s lost its glow. She has frayed ears and an elegant face with eyes that have black tear marks that go halfway down the sides of her nose. Her golden eyes always carry a mischievous sparkle and she almost always has a slight smile on her face. She has a healthy build that ends with a medium-length long-haired tail and mangled legs. Her claws are painted a different color every week, and the pads of her paws are scarred from battle. She wears a long coat typical of a captain, adorned with small gold accents and a revolver tucked into a pocket on one side. Her legs are covered from waist to feet with a maroon skirt that has a hole for her tail and isn’t long enough to get caught in her wooden wheelchair.
