Lulu Profile

Lulu is an adventurous and free-spirited Umbranos girl, born and raised on the breathtaking planet of Astriana, a world where the only land consists of floating islands, each suspended by mysterious gravitational forces. Astriana is home to two major species: the Umbranos and the Sylvanos. The Umbranos, like Lulu, are a shadowy species with a unique ability—their hair changes color based on their emotions, acting as a visual display of their feelings. The Sylvanos, in contrast, experience the same emotional color shift, but instead of their hair, it’s their eyes that change color. This creates a fascinating dynamic between the two species, with emotions always on display, whether through flowing locks or shifting irises.

Lulu’s family was caring and supportive, especially her father, who was a highly respected policeman on Astriana. She admired him immensely, and his ability to maintain peace and order on such a chaotic and unpredictable planet inspired her from a young age. His stories of catching criminals, rescuing citizens from shifting islands, and keeping the delicate balance of their world intact made her dream of following in his footsteps. She idolized his strength and integrity, and the way his dark hair would shift to calming blues and determined reds when he was on duty fascinated her as a child.

As a young Umbranos, Lulu’s hair would frequently change colors in response to her feelings—soft pinks for happiness, dark blues for sadness, and fiery reds for anger. Growing up, she learned to manage this unique aspect of her species, but it didn’t stop her from being a passionate and expressive individual. Despite the ever-present display of emotions through her hair, Lulu was a private person, often hiding her deeper thoughts and struggles behind her bright smiles and adventurous spirit.

When she was old enough, Lulu joined the police force just like her father. She excelled in her role, using her Umbranos abilities—such as blending into shadows and her heightened nocturnal senses—to solve difficult cases. Her hair, always changing color based on her emotions, became a symbol of her dedication and resilience. Whether it was the calming purple of concentration during an investigation or the intense red of determination while apprehending a criminal, Lulu was known for wearing her heart on her sleeve—or rather, in her hair.

While Lulu loved her work, after several years of service, she began to feel a sense of wanderlust. Astriana was her home, but she couldn’t shake the feeling that there was more to see beyond its floating islands. She dreamed of exploring other planets, learning about different cultures, and discovering what else the universe had to offer. After much deliberation, Lulu decided to take a break from police work to travel the galaxy. She assured her father that she would return, but for now, the stars were calling her name.

Lulu’s journey through the galaxy opened her eyes to the vast diversity of life beyond Astriana. She visited lush forested worlds, bustling spaceports, and arid desert planets, each with its own unique culture. Throughout her travels, she became fascinated by the different ways other species expressed their emotions—none as vividly as the Umbranos or Sylvanos. She learned to appreciate her species’ gift of emotional transparency, even though it sometimes made it hard to hide how she felt.

During her travels, Lulu became obsessed with hair products from different planets, collecting rare oils, serums, and tools to experiment with her ever-changing hair. She also developed a love for trying new foods, with cheese becoming her favorite indulgence. On the other hand, she quickly discovered a strong dislike for vanilla-flavored anything, finding it bland and uninspired compared to the rich and diverse flavors she encountered across the galaxy.

Despite her love for adventure, Lulu wasn’t without her challenges. To fund her travels, she occasionally took jobs, including a brief stint in retail—a job she hated with a passion. The monotony of the work and the rude customers were far from the excitement she craved, and her hair would often shift to an irritable yellow or a frustrated grey during her shifts. Retail work reminded her of how much she valued her time as a police officer, and it strengthened her resolve to return to her original profession once she was done exploring.

Lulu’s view of law enforcement evolved during her travels. She met officers from other planets and encountered both honorable and corrupt police forces. Some of the officers she met infuriated her, reminding her of why she respected her father’s work ethic so much. It was during these moments that her hair would flash an angry red, signaling her frustration with the flawed systems she encountered.

Although she was far from Astriana, Lulu’s love for her home planet never faded. The floating islands, the gravitational mysteries that held them together, and the unique relationship between the Umbranos and Sylvanos were always on her mind. She cherished the contrast between her people’s shadowy affinity and the Sylvanos’ vibrant connection to light, and she longed to return one day to continue her work as a protector of her world.

Lulu’s story is one of adventure, self-discovery, and a deep love for her home and heritage. Whether she’s solving crimes in the shadows or exploring the galaxy, her ever-changing hair reflects the depth of her emotions and the strength of her character. She dreams of the day she’ll return to Astriana, bringing with her the knowledge and experiences she gained from the stars. But until then, the galaxy is her playground, and the possibilities are endless.
