Editing Ishtar (Polesia) (section)

==Character Abilities==

Ishtar, as a formerly angelic creature, is particularly strong and hardy. While her ruthless combat style is considerable, her greatest strength lies in her ability to manipulate. A first-rate liar and a skilled diplomat, Ishtar's honeyed tongue is frequently partnered with equally manipulative magic. 

The ethereal membrane that would, in her home astral plane, pass for her skin, becomes, in the material realm, a variable surface which can assume virtually any humanoid shape. 

Ishtar has been known to drain the life force from her foes by inciting acts of passion. Her demonic nature allows her to take this life force into her own form, increasing her own hardiness.
