โ BASICS โ
โ FIRST IMPRESSIONS โ
APPEARANCE Zelda's 5'10, slender and not athletic in the slightest. She has long blonde hair that falls just past her shoulders, worn somewhere between wavy and curled, or neatly pinned up. Her whole style falls back a lot on the 50s, though it looks as natural to her as how easily she might smile. Zelda's posture is very dainty, arms raised, and is someone that talks with her hands. She's as neat and polished in her appearance as she is in everything else about her, careful and precise in how she styles, moves, speaks. Her whole being is a careful mask, one she's built up over the years and who she's become -- gentle, easy to overlook, someone far removed from her past.
CLOTHING Zelda's fond of wide-legged trousers and three-quarter length sleeves, either a jacket, a blouse or a jumper. She wears mostly muted tones, in various greys or blues. The only thing really stand-out is her very high heels.
DEMEANOR She's prim and proper, dainty and the least offensive person that you could ever meet. Zelda is kind, a natural listener and observer and has a calm and reasonable head on her. She is someone that will think before she acts, is patient and measured and never rushes into things. She lets herself be overlooked, though always with a head held high and a very gentle and unassuming look on her.
AURAL Zelda has a soft American accent without too much of a regional give-away, though that might be because she's spent the majority of her life not on Earth and has worked to even out her voice. When she speaks it's lighter, a little sweet and dainty. Her words are carefully chosen, her manner of speech is precise and she's always polite, a little formal and depending on comfort determines how stilted it might make her speech. [1]
OLFACTORY Working in a library and highly protective of her books, Zelda has a very light (if any) perfume to her. Rather, she'll smell more like old books, sweet tobacco and rich hardwood. Maybe some dust and mustiness depending on the age and depth of the book.
โ SKILLS โ
MAGICIAN Zelda is a natural magic user, someone that is highly skilled both by her many years of study and her formal training by the Order of the Library of the Neitherlands. As such, Zelda is a Master Magician, though she very rarely uses (or shows off) her gifts, with others instead underestimating her skill. Whilst her discipline is never explained, due to being a Master Magician (and well-read from her time within the Library), Zelda possesses a great deal of knowledge, spells and talent. Her magic is strong and she is able to affect much more than the average magician, for example being able to burn every book in a section of the Library with one spell or permanently freezing every fountain (portal) to prevent their use.
Spells in their world are cast by making tuts -- specific hand or finger gestures that can range from the simple to the complex depending on the complexity of the spell. For Master Magician's this requires much less effort than an ordinary Magician, where another Magician may require cooperative magic to have enough power Master Magicians can power the spell alone. Whilst highly powerful, she is not the most powerful being to exist (gods and those gifted with god-power are more powerful) and she is still susceptible to the effects of magic and spells being cast upon her, or things that would dampen or prevent her from being able to cast.

SPEED READING Part of being a master magician and librarian is being able to speed read -- magically. Zelda's able to consume the contents of a book by literally flicking through the book, parsing the text incredibly quickly. She also has a fantastic memory for being able to store the information that she's read (and she's read a LOT of books).
LANGUAGES All magicians learn a myriad of languages for needing to cast and translate spells and texts. With the sheer number of books that Zelda has read and her knowledge from her decades within the library, Zelda knows an ungodly number of languages. It's unstated what they are but you can count on her obscure librarian knowledge. She is also fluent in American Sign Language due to her daughter, Harriet, being deaf.
