Description

This is just Nite's head, nothing fancy.
This is a /giant/ picture, download for /giant/ view.

I've been doing a lot of thinking lately (shocking, I know), and I'm going to give you people some more information on Nite's magic.

Nite is a highly skilled shapeshifter, and become whatever she wants. The more different the shift is from her current form, the harder and longer it is to do, so from dragon to mouse may take up to an hour. Some thing very small, like making her fins a bit longer, is very quick, almost spontaneous. The more she practices shifting to a specific form the faster she gets at it as well; because she shifts to her human form a lot, she can change very quickly. However, she's very vulnerable to attacks when changing (since her body's all messed up), and in some cases completely helpless, especially when in the middle of a long and hard change, because limbs and such can be out of proportion and she can't get to anything practical quickly, so she always, even when preforming a quick change, likes to find someplace private. Since Nite creates her forms from scratch, there can be flaws, and she has no way of retrieving any of her forms memories (when she's trying to resemble a specific person). She can change her voice pretty effectively, but it still isn't always perfect. Even though she's changing her physical appearance, she has the same 'magic signature'/'feel to her aura' as she would in any other from, and retains all of her magic abilities (more to be explained /next/ paragraph)
She can also teleport or 'summon' items and 'things'. She has access to to a separate (and mostly empty) plane or dimensional place (it's not in this world). It's mostly an empty white space, but it has a thick atmosphere are stronger gravity than on earth. as far as she can tell, only Nite can access it. she uses it as a quick storage, hiding all of her belongings and treasure inside of it, and will often grab an enchanted item from there when confronted (this is where all of the human form's belongings spring from). She /could/ place people and animals there, but usually doesn't, as they'll mess up her stuff and could possibly die from the harsher conditions. the bigger the item, and the farther away it is from her, the harder it is to teleport (working both ways. Moving an object into the plane or out of it). She could, technically, put a boulder in her dimension, then just drop it on someones head, but the farther away they are from Nite, and the bigger the boulder, the more difficult it is.
She can also call upon an enchanted purple/black fire, which she (I've yet to decide which) calls upon from her dimension or just creates. She'll often use it to augment her attacks (put it on her claw/paw/hand/ when scratching/hitting something), or just blast at someone. Since it's 'magic' fire, it burns a bit quicker and is a little harder to put out, it makes no smoke.
Nite prefers a tactical battle over a physical one (she is rather slim and her normal/original dragon from is a bit frail). She'll use her shape-shifting abilities to the fullest, and will infiltrate her enemy's home and pretty much mess up their life.
Some physical stuff. Her 'mask' is in fact a make, in case you were wondering. it's bone and completely stuck to her face. Like a finger nail. you /could/ rip it off, but it would be horribly painful and leave her face all messed up (like ripping off a finer nail, I guess). She wasn't born with it, but used magic to shape it and glue it to her face. The the skin around her eye (and any skin without scales) is charcoal gray/black, but she painted on the black stripe running down to her nose, and colors and the patter can vary (but she always has that one black stripe). She has teeth underneath (on top and bottom jaw), and her lower jaw ends in a hard beak-like-thing. None of her face has scales, so it's all black.

There we go that was longer than I thought it would be~
