[atrb=width,500]

Species: Unicorn
Rank: Dragon's Throat Scorched
Gender: Female
Age: 3 years [Fall birthday]
Height: 14.3 hands
Appearance: Flick is Arab-esque in appearance, dainty and slender with a dished face and nimble legs. As befits a unicorn, she is slightly slenderer than the standard horse. A dusting of feathers line her legs from knee to hoof, and her tail is that of a lion, with a long curtain of black hair that falls from it, ending in a tuft. She has a slight black beard upon her chin. Her hooves are cloven, and also black, except for the left hind, which is grey and boasts a pastern sock. Other spots of white that adorn her otherwise midnight hide include a small star on her forehead, a frosting at the roots of her mane and tail, and a small sun branded into her right hip.

Her horn is a brilliant, spiraled black, that glitters in the moonlight. She has piercing grey eyes that always hold some kindness, despite the hardships she has suffered at her young age.
Flicker wears chains that show the world she belongs to Ra. A simple gold band wraps around her right foreleg, and another around the tip of her tail just before it becomes a tuft. Her ears have gold gauge earrings. All of these pieces of metal can be controlled by the will of Ra, growing warm when he desires her. If she is too slow to respond to his calls, they will burn her.

Flicker's body is littered with scars, both from burns and beatings. Yet even with these mars, she is a lovely creature, strength and kindness clear in her dark form.

Personality: She is the personal servant of Ra, and will be instrumental in organizing the uprising against him and the Order of the Sun in the name of the God of the Moon. She is truly a kind and giving mare, often helping the other servants in the Throat and sharing their burdens. She is incredibly strong willed, but mostly in private, preferring to act demure and ashamed as she should in sight of the Order and the herd - she doesn't want them to realize her will and strength, lest they tighten their watch on her. Being Ra's personal servant she does have some more freedoms than others and uses them to her advantage, often tricking and wriggling her way out of trouble. She also knows a good deal of Ra's secrets, as she hears things and he sometimes speaks too much, coming to be familiar with her over time. From these secrets and what she's pieced together with the gaps, she knows that he loves someone very passionately, but they do not return the favor, though Flick is not sure who the mare is. She knows that Ra is lying about his magic and about his beliefs, but her word against his would likely get her killed so she holds her tongue and lets her ears gather as much as they can. Truly she pities Ra, and thinks his deeds are born of good intentions, but she cannot forgive the terrible things he has done and often her other emotions for him are drowned by the hate burning inside her. She retains a happy and optimistic attitude despite her predicament, often praying to the God of the Moon when she is in private to ask for strength and guidance, but mostly she relies on her own tact and guile.
History: Rescued by Ra from an attack by angry dragons, Flick though him a heroic individual and was indebted to him. She willfully followed him for a time, and though he never seemed at ease with her, though she never knew why (her dark color), it wasn't until they got to learn more of each other that he really turned on her. Upon finding her reverence of the God of the Moon and her magic, he became violent and abusive, often physically lashing out at her as well as verbally. She cowered at first, uncertain and wondering where she had gone wrong. When she could get little information from her and chose to leave, he barred her way time and time again. He starved her and kept her dehydrated, forcing her compliance. As they move into the Dragon's Throat and he gains more power she loses her opportunities to escape. Over time though, as she learns more of Ra and his religious group, Flick has begun to try escaping less and less. She still wants badly to leave him, but time has shown her that cooperating rather than resisting and playing to his wants, often gives her easier days and more information. She still despises him and yearns for freedom, but she is smart enough to recognize the position she is in is special and may offer her more revenge and usefulness in the long run.
Other: Scrying: DarkxWater magic - able to hear the conversations of others in a pool of water if they are also near water. It mostly doesn't matter how far away they are from her, just to the water regarding clarity, and how well she can think of whoever she wants to listen in on, as the magic doesn't work unless she is focusing. At times she can catch glimpses of them, but mostly only hearing.
