player name: ellie! character name/journal: alina starkov, peasant opt-in/out of koby's powers?: in! IF OPT-IN: aura-wise, alina's resembles pure, searing white light in a general sense — depending on her mood, emotions, and their intensity, her aura may flicker like the colors of sunlight, ranging from buttery gold to deep blue at the edges, to blazing red. alina's counterpart, the darkling, has the scent of a cold winter night — alina's power likely smells the exact opposite. think cutting into fresh, ripe peaches on a warm summer day. overall, alina's power feels contradictory; there's an inherent comfort to sensing it, but the overwhelming enormity of it — and the volatile nature of it, like someone tried to keep lightning in a glass bottle — makes it feel otherworldly, almost terrifyingly so.
important to note that alina's spiritually connected to a shadow summoner in her own world, who has extensively used abomination magic, and has even dabbled in abomination magic here herself — it will look like a spool of black around her aura. one thread leads to an entity that cannot be seen (unless someone apps the darkling, then feel free to have koby notice it leads to him) and the other leads to paul atreides.
other passengers attached to her that koby might be able to sense is a sea whip (sea ice dragon) and morozova's white stag. both feel like ancient guardians carried with alina, that give off two very different vibes — the anger of a predatory animal for the sea whip, and a sense of calm wisdom from the stag itself.
