{{ MACKENZIE pandora VILAYNA }}
{{ The Stats }}Name: Mackenzie Pandora Vilayna
Name Pronunciation: Mack-ken-zee Pan-door-uh Vee-law-nuh
Nicknames: She mainly goes by Mac. Mackenzie is not exactly her favorite name, she isn't sure why. Mac suits her,; it is laid back, not a usual females name, and she thinks it has a ring to it.
Age: She is 28 years old, though she doesn't act or look like it.
Birthday: April 16th
{{ The Mortal }}Occupation: Mackenzie is sort of a jack of all trades. Her day job is working as a tattoo artist at a small shop with one of her friends. On the weekends at night, she works as a bartender at one of the clubs in the gay part of town. Other than that, Mac dabbles in a bit of fashion design.
Do They Know: Mac sort of knows about the magical world. She sometimes thinks she sees rather strange happenings, but can never prove them.
How Do They Feel: If Mac were to be proved that magic and such does really exist, she probably would think it rather silly. Mac is very practical, and has always worked for everything she has. She just assumes that magic comes easy, and would make life easier. This doesn't mean she wouldn't accept the magic folk for who they were however.
{{ The Painting }}Celebrity Face: Jessica Louise
Hair: Mackenzie has stringy, thin hair, that falls a little past her shoulders. Her hair is cut in a few layers, including long side bangs which sometimes fall over her eyes. Currently the color is black, with red streaks in it. She dies her hair about every month or so, usually black with some sort of colored streaks. The constant dying of her hair is why it is rather stringy, and dry. All the hair dye damaged her naturally curly, blond hair. She hasn't seen blond in about.... 15 years however, and the most curl her hair ever sees is a bit of a wave after she takes it out of a ponytail.
She loves doing things with her hair and is rarely ever seen with it down. Most of the time, to get her hair out of the way, she will tie it into two pigtails with some sort of ribbon. Other than that she does a lot of different styles that include braids, clips, ribbons, scrunchies, and sometimes foreign objects.
Eyes: She has chocolate brown eyes, with a hint of gold mixed in to them. When she is happy, the gold specks pop out and give her eyes a lighter look to them. Sometimes, she will wear colored contacts, depending on her mood. She doesn't hate her eyes at all, she just likes making everything look different than it naturally does.
Height: Mac isn't short really, but she could be taller. She stands at 5'4", and really sometimes wishes she was 5'10". It's all right though because even though she is short people do not mess with her.
Body Shape: She is short and petite, with a tiny waist, small hands and feet, and a "B" cup. Her arms and legs are quite muscular because she doe work out, doing pilates and yoga.
Clothing: Mac has her own, wild style, that mostly consists of her own creations. On top she usually wears a cute baby doll top, either in bright colors, or with some cute character or saying on it. She also enjoys wearing tank top, tight of course, which show off her slim figure. She sometimes goes for the black fishnet shirt over a brightly colored bra look. For bottoms, Mac's favorite thing to do is wear a pair of fishnets and a pair of short black shorts. Besides those, she often will wear ripped jeans, cute mini skirts and the occassional pair of black leather pants. She owns about a trillion pairs of shoes, her favorites being an old pair of black combat boots. Converse, high heels and ballet flats round out her collection. She accessories with arm bands, wrist bands, stud belts and jewelry.
Other: Mac is extremely pale, though this isn't because she is a hermit. Her skin is naturally a very light, porcelien color. It is also rather flawless and soft. Her skin color pops out when she wears make up. She tends to lean towards bright lipsticks such as red, pink, blue and orange. Then she will thickly line her eyes with black eyeliner. She doesn't always wear eyeshadow but when she does it is bright, artifully done, and matches the colors of what she is wearing.
She has the regular ear piercings, and one lip piercing. She has opted for the small silver ball in her lip (on the left side) rather than a ring. Mac has too many tattoos to name. Her fellow co-worker, and good friend, did mostly all her tattoos. She has about 15 of them, scattered across her body. Her two favorites are; A blue and gray dragon scale tattoo which wraps around her right bicep, and a coy fish tattoo on her lower back.
Mac loves accessories, so she is always wearing crazy earrings, lots of bracelets, rings and necklaces. She has a few scars, though none really worth mentioning.
She has a melodious, yet breathy voice, which has a rather smoldering sound to it. This of course, is when she is being nice. Her voice sort of changes when she is being bossy or angry. It sounds harsher, more manly and gives you the feeling that you should not mess around with her.
{{ The Person }}Overall Personality: Mackenzie is not at all hard to read. She is very straightforward about her intentions, and has no problems speaking her mind. She is an extrovert, through and through, and usually is energetic. She loves working, her jobs are of the fun sort. She believes you have to make it for yourself, and you can't rely on the helps of others. Though she has a lot of friends and acquaintances, her trust level for anyone is slightly low. She knows that everyone is out there for themselves, and they are ready to screw you over any second.
That is mostly the reason she has troubles with committment. You say those words to Mac and she will shit a chicken. She is all right with being friendly and fooling around, but when it comes to putting her heart out on a platter for someone else to hold, she is hesitant. Not only has she been hurt in the past, her proud, independant nature automatically rejects any form of romantic affection. Perhaps she is unwilling to share her deepest feelings with another, or perhaps she is just worried it is all for nothing.
Besides her slightly pestimistic view of people, Mac is a laid back, fun loving gal. She is wild, adventurous and interesting. She can't stay still for just one moment, and her mind is always on the go. She has a lot of creativity and intelligence stored up in her petite little frame. She loves to talk and share her stories, as well as hearing other peoples stories. She is genuinely interested in human beings. They are the most fascinating creatures on Earth. Everyone goes through such pain, such happiness, such intrigue, it's like a good soap opera to Mac when she listens to those stories. That is half the reason she wanted to be a tattoo artist. Tattoo's tell a story, something about a person. And to be a part of that is outstanding.
Strengths:\\ Mac is not only an excellent tattoo artist, her art work on paper and on a canvas is beautiful as well. She is maticulous, and never lets one little detail go. She can draw anything you want off the top of her head, and she can usually make it exactly how you pictured it.
\\ She knows how to stand up for herself, and really does not need any protection from anyone. Besides the fact that she is quite strong and knows self defense moves, not a lot of people want to mess with her. She makes it clear that she is a laid back person, but that she is also a tough, independant woman making it on her own.
\\ Her passion for being a tattoo artist is only surpassed by her passion for fashion. Her clothes are cute, stylish, unique and comfortable. She sews likes a mad woman, and barely ever uses a sewing machine.
\\ Mac is the type of person who is rather unjudgemental. She loves pretty much everyone, and as long as you don't talk bad about her or her friends, you are cool. Because she herself is considered "different", she understands how it is to be judged and disliked. She tries to be open to every walk of life.
\\ Mac can give a killer back massage. In her eyes, this is a strength. Massages can relax people and open them up. It definitely helps with being a tattoo artist because a lot of times Mac will give a customer a massage to calm them down. It also helps in the bedroom....
Weaknesses:// Mac is definitely a bit of a firecracker. This can be a problem because she doesn't like to give in to others. She is stubborn, and has a big mouth. She often says the wrong thing to the wrong person.
// Mac in a relationship is a very different Mac. Her usual fun, laid back and spunky self changes into a mega bitch. The problem is=committment. Once it passes that line from friends/fooling around to boyfriend/girlfriend, sometimes in her snaps, and she tweaks. This is because her one real relationship when she was young ended horribly.
// Most of the time, she is drunk.. She isn't always "falling all over herself" drunk, but she loves to have a drink in her hand. She really isn't sure why she drinks so much.
// Mac can be a bit depressive, so perhaps that is why she drinks. To drown out her loneliness. She has a lot of friends, and acquaintances, but not really anyone she is close enough with to spill her guts too. She longs for a real relationship, but can't bring herself to do it.
// Needless to say she has a bit of a reputation. What that reputation is? That she sleeps around. And sure, it's true. She isn't a slut, and she is always safe, but she does get in bed with many a people.
Likes:+ The rush she gets when she is getting a tattoo. Sure she loves giving tattoos, but that warm, scratchy feeling on her skin is her favorite feeling in the world. Mayb e it's the pain aspect of it....
+ Mac loves going to raves. Not just for the drugs, not just for the music. But for the culture and diversity. You will not find another place where so many different people from different worlds come together just to dance, celebrate, and be free.
+ Dancing. She is not a professional dancer (thought she did dance for a job at one point), in the least. But when she is at a rave, or out with her friends at a club, nothing feels better than letting herself go and just feeling the music.
+ A shot of liquid cocaine. This is her absolute favorite drink and has been known to get quite drunk off of it.
+ Mac loves chili, the spicier the better.
+Sex. She isn't a sex freak per say, but she definitely loves a good romp in the bedroom.... or anywhere else. She can't go too long without it.
+ Mac loves, oh how does she love being naked. Even though she likes fashion and designing clothes, she would much rather stroll the streets in her birthday suit.
Dislikes:- God she hates talking on the phone. That's why she hired a secretary for her business. Her idea of a phone conversation is "Hey, where are you? Come here, bye." Even that is too much for her.
- When people wear fur and think it is fashionable. How is it fashionable to wear a dead animal skin on your back? She isn't an activist or a vegetarian, she just thinks wearing fur is gross.
- All of the "American Pie" movies. Who in their right mind really thinks those are funny? F**king idiots....
- When people apologize over and over for the same damn thing. You're sorry, ok, understood. Mac thinks some people try way too damn hard.
- Giving some a "gift card" as a present. Way to put no thought or effort into someones special occassion.
- People who still use the insult "your mom". That was so ten years ago.
- The color brown. Yes, let's wear something the color of shit. The only brown she can stand are her eyes, because they have some gold in them.
Habits:* Mac has the same routine every morning. She gets up, slams the alarm clock, rolls out of bed, pees, makes herself a cup of coffee, gulps it, then hops in the shower. None of this can be out of order or she will flip.
* Mac chews the ends of her hair, leaving them with a lot of split ends. She used to try to put wax and gel on the ends of it to make it taste bad so she would stop, but it doesn't work.
* Cigarettes.. Yes, she had that awful habit of smoking. But when a day is stressful and she is at work and can't drink, a nice menthol cigarette is all she needs to calm down.
Favorite Color: Mac loves all colors, except for brown really. Bright colors are her favorite. If she had to choose they would be neon orange and green.
Favorite Food: A nice, delicious chili dog from a side walk vender. Has to have cheese of course.
Least Favorite Food: Pizza. For some reason the blend of cheese, sauce and dough don't really do it for her.
{{ The Emotion }}Sexuality: Mac is bisexual, and has experiences with men and woman. She truelybelieves gender is not what makes a person, but who they are inside.
Loves:>> On a female Mac loves black lingerie. Nothing turns her on more than when a woman drops her clothes to reveal so much, yet so little.
>> A mysterious man, who seems slightly dangerous. She loves that whole, tall dark and handsome routine. She especially loves it when it includes a bit of a rock style.
>> Just a little bit of pain. Mac often likes to pull out the whip, or a pair of handcuffs.
Hates:<< Anyone with no mind of their own. Mac really can't fall for a corperate, stuffy type who doesn't think outside the box. She is all about the freedom!
<< Saggy breasts. Nothing is worse than a beautiful woman who's boobs are so large that they sag.
<< People with gap teeth. She just can't stand it. Even if they are good looking other than that, her eyes just go to the gap.
{{ The History }}Hometown: Mac was born in Boston, MA, but thought the Chicago scene sounded more like her style. She moved there about 7 years ago.
Alliance: Mac is a little bit of both. She can't really choose. Sometimes she feels like a goodie good, and sometimes she's wickedly evil.
Family: Dalton Vilayna (father): Dalton, Mackenzie's father is a laid back, comfortable sort of man who is easy to talk to. He lives in Boston with his wife, and works at a local hospital as a peditritian. He doesn't "disapprove" of Mac's life really, but he does wish she would settle down and get into a relationship. The funny thing about Dalton is that he really wanted a son when Mackenzie was born, which is why he nicknamed her Mac. Dalton has a balding head of black hair, and brown eyes.
Braewyn Vilayna (mother): Braewyn, Mackenzie's mother is sort of a hippie. She is all about mother nature, and making your body a temple. She thinks that Mac's line of work, tattooing, is unhealthy and ruins the bodys natural beauty. She owns her own hemp store, and was the one who got Mac into pilates and yoga. She misses her daughter, but does not miss her "destructive" life style. Braewyn has long blond hair, soft gray eyes, and dresses in the usual hippie fashions. Long skirts, shirts made of hemp, and mocassions. Braewyn actually smokes a bit of pot, which is one of the reasons Mac loves visiting home. Free weed!
Zoe Wonder (cousin): Zoe is Mac's younger cousin, whom she treats like the sister she never had. Zoe is a sweet, snarky, but kind of tricky 18 year old girl. The two get along smashingly, and boy is Mac glad she is finally 18. Mac hopes, and prays the girl will let her do her first tattoo. Who else would she pick our her favorite cousin? Zoe has straight, brown hair, and is kind of a jeans and t-shirt girl. Mac has tried to instill some of her fashion choices into Zoe, but it isn't Mac's style to make people be who they aren't. She has no idea Zoe is a witch, since it is on Zoe's dads side that she gets it from. Zoe helps her feel young, though she knows she is getting too old for some of her shenanigans.
History: Dalton and Braewyn met in a run in the mill, usual way. While in college Dalton and his buddies were in need of a little something green. Braewyn, who was a year younger than Dalton, was a very attractive, eccentric hippie who was in Dalton's Lit class. He got her number through some of his buddies, and their first real meeting was well, rather interesting. Braewyn was a bit of a small time drug dealer, working only the college scene. These sorts of calls were everyday business for her. They met behind the dorm building Braewyn lived in, to do a little exchange.
This exchange did not end well. Apparently someone had tipped off campus security about Braewyn's little operation. The two were caught just in the middle of the deal. Dalton, a medical student figured this would be his last and final night in college. After a few long hours in the campus security office, Braewyn used her womanly charms.... and her stash to convince the campus rent-a-cop to let them off with only a warning, and a small punishment. The two would serve their community by planting trees (drug free plants of course) around the campus. They worked side by side for weeks, and Dalton began to thoroughly enjoy the company of this beautiful hippie.
2 years later, when Dalton graduated and moved on to graduate school, he asked Braewyn to marry him. She didn't need too much convincing.
On the day of Dalton's second graduation, Braewyn told him some very exciting news. She was pregnant. He secretly wished for a boy, and prayed on every shooting star that he would get a boy to carry on his name. Instead, the couple was blessed with a lovely baby girl, who was named Mackenzie Pandora Vilayna. She was spunky from the get go, throwing her bottles, ripping heads off her dolls, and never whining. Independence was in her personality, and she hardly ever relied on her parents for anything. Dalton nicknamed her "Mac", in hopes to get a little tomboy in her. He would play sports games with her and dress her in boys clothes. Because it caused her father to spend time with her, she let him do it.
As she grew up, she loved two things; fashion and art. She was extremely creative and would make her own clothes with a needle and a piece of thread. At school she would get picked on for her creations, but they really didn't know genius when they saw it. Her teenage years hit, and this is when the multi-colored hair and wild parties began. She got her first tattoo from a man who was very illegal, and he began to teach her the trade. She already had the artistic talent. She started tattooing when she was 16 years old.
Mac moved out of her parents house the day she turned 18. She loved them, really she did, but she couldn't stand them breathing down her neck anymore. She lived in a shitty apartment for about 3 years, and attended classes for just about everything. Fashion design, art, and bartending. During this time, she was dating a man named Eric, who was quite a bit older than she was. He was strong, mysterious and handsome, that's all she needed to know. He gave her a job at a "exotic" dancing place which he owned, and she worked there to earn money for all her classes. Their relationship was rather rocky to say the least. He cheated on her, then he would beat her if she found out.
When Mac turned 21 she packed up all her belongings (which fit in one bag), and moved. She wasn't sure where until she got there. She ended up in Chicago, Illinois with no friends, no job and no money. She applied at a few tattoo parlors but was denied because of "inexperience". She instead got a job at bar called Nothing Served Straight in Boystown, a rather gay community. This worked perfectly for her because she got less hit on.... by men at least. She does get hit on by women a good amount, though unless they are really attractive she will politely ignore it.
Mac became good friends with a man who came into the bar every night. Hector, who was quite gay, had a brother who wanted to start up a tattoo shop of his own. And Hectors brother, Andy, was rich. Mackenzie smoozed and won over Andy's heart, and he agreed she could work there with him. He would put up most of the money for buying the place, and she would have to pay him back with work for a couple years. It took Mac about 3 years to pay Andy back, but now they own Eternal Ink 50/50.
That's about where Mac is now. Working at NSS, Eternal Ink, and working on her own fashions. She lives alone, and her only real friends in the word are Andy and Hector, who keep trying to set her up on dates.
