Who is she?
Talinea is part of the entertainment business, however compared to most people her occupation within this is a bit more on the 'unique side' Talinea is known as a shadow pirouette dancer. Shadow stemming from the fact that she uses her 'shadow demon' as a visual effect for the performance. Her shadow therefore becomes her main effect when she is preforming. The way the two of them preform is quite similar to the video here.
What makes this special is the fact that her audience believe this is all an illusion, a mere effect created for entertainment. All of them are actually unaware that the shadow is a living creature, and not some sort of cheap effect. The audience is easily impressed by how in synch her and the ''effect'' seem, and it is one of the main reasons she has gotten such a huge popularity.' Even though the two of them don't really get along due to disagreements, this is the one time both of them truly feel close, and it can almost be seen as a sort of bonding session. It's a fun activity for both of them, and they seem to fairly enjoy being the main attraction. One might ask how she first got into the dancing industry to begin with. Truth be told, it was actually a lucky accident that she got discovered. she'd always adored dancing, ever since she was a little girl. But she didnt think much about it, as her dancing was average, and working on it seemed poinless. The thing that made her special though was that she had one thing no other person had, the shadow. The idea first popped into her head as she was dancing on the streets, just for killing time. Someone discovered the shadow in the background, but instead of running away out of fear, they simply shouted ''great effects!'' and left a 5-dollar bill for her. At first it left her slightly confused, but after a while when this seemed to repeat she got the brightest idea of startng to preform together with Vero. Naturally Vero was very skeptical at first almost refusing, but eventually let herself get talked into it. This was of course the start of the amazing career she currently has today.
When it comes to her living situation, Tali does not live home anymore, and she moved away to the northern part of Belgium. Although she has a rather large apartment, she hardly spends her time there as most of her life is spent in her medium-sized tour bus. She tends to tour all over Europe, which is why she doesn't think of herself as living one ''permanent'' place, instead she moved around to different locations depending on where she is going to preform. She still loved her apartment despite so, but still thinks of it as dark, lonely and slightly boring compared to everything else she has experienced.

Name: Talinea Stirling
Age: 23 (Human years)
Gender: Female
Mate: None
Voice claim: Ako Castuera
Birthday: 6'th of April
Sexuality: Demisexual
Likes: Snacking on licorice candy, Being inside, Entertaining people, dancing in general, as well as trying out new things, Violin music.
Dislikes: Her shadow tormenting people, When her tour bus gets too messy, Having to work with anyone in general, Being forced to spend time with her family, Wearing jewelry or accessories in general
Personality: Towards others Talinea is very quiet, and seemingly uninterested in making friends. It isn't because she is shy per say, it's more that she doesn't want people knowing about her shadow. Everyone in her home-town avoided her because of it, and she was both gossiped about, and had many negative rumors. Therefore after she moved away she'd rather keep a blank ''nobody knows who i am'' profile, instead of being known as ''the freak'' Even if she may seem cold and distant, truth be told she is just a lonely mako that needs company, and someone willing to be with her, and try to understand her situation. She is just afraid that her shadow will become a burden to other people, especially since it hasn't given her any pro's in earlier relations. She has tried to put up walls several times, but failing each time.
Instead of participating she likes to analyze, whether it being around large groups of people, or simply alone. Like mentioned she isn't much of a talker, and Talinea will often answer with short answers just to cut the conversation. She isn't fan of small-talk, and would rather not associate with people unless she is extremely close with them. It would take a very pushy makoatl and a lot of effort for them to become friends with her.

History: Talinea is quite a unique makoatl, differentiating from the others by the fact that her ''shadow'' has a will of its own. Strange as it may seem, its actually true., and its been like this ever since she was small. She isnt really sure when this unusual event occurred, as she feels like she has lived her entire life with it. The ''shadow'' is not directly connected to her body, like many would think. It instead just follows her around, sort of like a companion, but it has the free-will to go wherever it desires. This also means that Taliea does not have an actual 'real' shadow, as it has taken over her actual one. How has it affected her life you might ask? Well sadly it hasnt given very many positive factors beside one.
The negative factors were mainly that people feared her, or rather the shadow. Hardly no one dared befriending her, knowing they'd have to get close to that demon. Talinea tried calming them down, telling them it's not capable of actual harm, however no one listened. After a while she just ended up giving up.
There was even a small part of her life where she tried hiding the creature from others, however due to the already spread rumors there was no use. Absolutely every one in her small home-town knew about the demon girl, and her shadow companion. This is why she left her home, taking a risk in the entertainment business. It was a hard and time-consuming job, but in the end it all payed out when she finally got recognized for her talent as a dancer. The positive factors of the shadow are therefore that it's one of her main reasons she had received such a huge success in being a ''shadow'' pirouette dancer, which you shall read about a bit later.

Relations:
The shadow (Enemy and ''friend''): Although referred to as the ''shadow'' many times, Talinea has actually given her a name, but rarely uses it (Vero). Vero is at times hard to get along with, and can act both very stubborn and WIP
''The world is a dangerous place, don't trust anyone'' is Vero's motto, which has slowly started to affect Tali as well. She wants to protect Talinea, and cares deeply about her, but her overprotective nature usually scares away anyone trying to get too close to Tali. This is why they tend to have a love-hate relation towards each other, due to consequences. Talinea did have a very rocky relationship with her in the beginning, claiming she'd do anything to get rid of her. However as she grew older she realized that Vero may not have been as bad as she seemed, ans as of now she refers to her as ''both a curse and a blessing''
(Leila, mother): Tali's mother was always the more ''skeptical'' of her parents. She disliked the creature that had been following her daughter around, and tried on numerous occasions to talk her into getting rid of it, even if it was impossible. She thinks of the shadow as some sort of choice instead of a burden. They never really got along, but due to missunderstandings and such, their relantionship just got more and more akward, until the point of them not even wanting to converse with one another. Leila's incapability of understanding her daughter was what caused them to slowly slip away from one another
Gareth, (father): The calmer of the parents, and the one that really tried hard to learn about the shadow, as well as loving his daughter for who he was. He didnt see Tali as some sort of demon or freak due to her shadow companion, and instead tried understanding and learning about her current situation. More than weird he found it unique and special that she was chosen, like she had some sort of mission. Ever since Tali was little Gareth tried telling her she had received some sort of special mission, which was why she had gotten the little ''companion''
However due to her mothers disagreements towards Tali and the shadow, he ended up having to stay by his wifes side. This meant that he couldn't support her even, if it meant abandoning her. Tali felt hurt that he wasnt able to fight against her mother, and chose her instead of his own daughter. Even if she doesnt have contact with either of them anymore, she still holds a great amount of love towards her father.

Fears and phobias
Although it may not seem like it, Talinea is very afraid of death and dying. The concept of dying, and just ''disappearing'' greatly frightenes her. She does not believe in any sort of afterlife, which is why she believes everything is just over once you die.
She is also very afraid of ''the concept of change'' she dislikes anything being changed, whether it being small things such as daily rouitines or major things such as environmental or local changes. It's just something she is not comfortable with, as she isnt able to adapt to different situations easily. And when something is broken or different, it takes a long time for her to get used to ita gain. Regarding major changes such as enviromental changes she is highly uncomfortable with them due to it literally changing the earth. It's changing her home, and yet again forcing her to adapt to any new changes it may give.
Dreams and hopes
Talinea is a big dreamer, and all her dreams and hopes consist from everything to becoming a world-famous dancere, to being able to gather the courage to contact her father again. All her hopes and dreams tend to be prevented by some sort of fear or negative thought. This is why her biggest and greatest dream is:
''Being able to overcome all my negative thoughts''
Tali feels that if she is able to get through her life with only positive thoughts it will be filled with so much more happiness, and less sadness and fear.
