Saci Perirí (Sassy)

"Big smiling lips, a little sunshine on the eyes and always the right words, in the right moments. That's me, amiga!"

- Saci "Sassy" Perirí

Saci Perirí (aka Sassy by her friends) is the daughter of the Saci Pererê, the leader of all Sacis.

The Saci Kind and Saci Pererê
Sacis (pronounced sah - cih - s) are one legged, human like creatures of the forest. Always dark skinned, they are born inside bamboos, and stay inside this plant for 7 years before being born; they live a total of 77 years.

Saci Pererê, the leader of the Saci kind (and Sassy's father) is the most known Saci ever. He doesn't have an actual tale, but he's very known for his mean pranks with all types of households - with his magical powers, he burns whatever is cooking on the oven, make eggs go rotten, and his best one: tangling and braiding horses' manes. Him and all Sacis have the ability to ride tornados, big or small. They don't like to be seen, but if you want to, windy days are the best.

They may be fast and agile beings, but they can be trapped. Their hat is their power source - take it, and they are magicless. Being so, they'll, literally, do anything you say to get it back (meaning they are enslaved to you). This technique has been kept in secret for thousands of years, for good reason.

But aside from playing pranks on others, Sacis are natural beings, they live in the wild, and they will do anything they can do to protect it. You can imagine which famiy they don't really get along with (hint: they use axes to destroy trees and trap animals to feed on them).

Personality
She's energetic, and as she says herself: "Gorgeous, amiga!" Her favorite color is red, as every other Saci out there, but she also loves to tint her outfits and makeup with gold: "Get some sunshine on that face!". She loves to tell jokes and be the funny one in the group,  getting to the point of being a little sarcastic sometimes. And, as her nickname says, she always has an Sassy answer prepared for any situation.

She is always carrying a bubble pipe. She got it from her father, and he got it from his father, and on and on - it's a family treasure. But as she's too young to smoke, she fills it with bubble soap and blows on it everytime she needs to think a lot or come up with something.

She also loves to do physical exercises, mostly running (on her case,jumping), and magic. Unfortunatelly, because of the mean nature of her father's tale, she has to study Curses and not the good type of magic she would love to. She wants to make people laugh, not to harm and annoy them.

Appearance
Dark skinned with emerald-green eyes, she is always displaying a huge smile on her full red lips. She is also always wearing ribbons on her outfits, often golden ones. Her hairstyles always have some type of braid on them to hold her hair back, and she's always dealing with wind. She only has her left leg, but, even with her high heels, she can walk, jump and run just fine (even faster than the average one). Her wardrobe is entirely red, as it is the Saci kind's color. The red hat on her head is always present - she doesn't take it off even for sleeping.

Trivia

 * Her nickname was given by her best friend, Iarinha ([TBA]), who, knowing the other students would mispell her name, searched for a word similar to Saci in the English language. "Sassy" was the closest one, and it fitted Perirí's personality like a glove!
 * Saci Pererê is a Brazilian tale, one of the most popular ones with "Iara: Mother of the Waters" "Headless Horse (Brazilian version)", "Curupira", etc...

Hello! This is my EAH OC, Sassy! I don't have that much time to work on her directly, so I'll be adding information on her (and create Iarinha's page) little by little. I hope you like it! ^^
