Small notes in advance:
1. I make lots of notes. >_>
2. No lies are in here, though there’s a lot of vagueness to cover certain things that shouldn’t be said yet, or that I don’t know yet. ...>_> I mean...
3. I'm writing this so that hopefully, you (the reader!) won't be scared to approach me. ^_^ I'd love to interact with more people in topics and such, and for more people to be familiar with me if possible. ^_^;

General Info

True Name: Meredia
If a person with sufficient power and intent invokes Meredia’s true name, something... happens. Please do not use her name or even know of it unless she (or someone else who knows it) tells you of it. ^_^
Aliases/Nicknames: Atalanta (Brin), Monique (Fury/Wyborn), Crysanthia (Link the Sixth), Iolanthe (Sheharazhad)
Feel free to give Meredia a name of your own making, or call her by a name someone else has called her before.
Gender: Female
Age: Approximately many tens or hundreds of thousands of years (Conscious), Likely millions of years (Unconscious)
Species: Unknown.
Elements: Water and wind.

Physical Info
Meredia was not born with a set humanoid form, being created by some means through water and air. However, she has over the years found a form that she is most comfortable under, and does not usually change her form into anything else asides from water and air. (An overlong story explanation that I won’t tend to shapeshift in battle.) Her usual form is described below.

Height: Just over six feet tall.
Build: Rather average.
Skin Colour: Quite pale.
Eyes: Silver, with an odd metallic glint. Openly stares at people.
Quirks: Very undeceptive; emotions, when she feels them, are expressed quite clearly in her features. Her looks often alter slightly depending on who is looking at her; subconsciously shifting her height, tones and build.
Clothing: Usually wears a long white robe, of a fabric resembling linen. The fabric offers no protection from attacks or from the elements whatsoever, and is quite plain in appearance. Meredia has no preference in regards to nudity or clothing, having no fear or disgust of the former, and it is seen as (un?)fortunate that someone in her life managed to convince her on her chosen article of clothing. Meredia also has a small silver pendant around her neck, that of a phoenix with outspread wings, clutching onto a tear shaped blue jewel. She has no other garments, and walks barefoot.

Battle Info

Physical Details: Though she may not appear as being such, Meredia possesses great physical strength and notable speed as well. Most of her actions are instinctual and therefore not often thought through; this is often a problem. Meredia avoids contact with other people, even when dealing blows; this contact has the possibility of synching her with other people's minds, sending her others' memories and emotions, as well as spilling her own into the other. And since she is incapable of forgetting anything, many, many aforementioned memories of her own and of others drift around in parts of her mind. If sent too deep in thought, Meredia may not stay entirely stable.
Magical/Elemental Details: Meredia has full control over water and air, and uses them quite naturally as an extension of herself. Though she can direct vast amounts of either element and control them in virtually any way imaginable, there is apparently a cap on the extent of her powers. It is also notably harder for her to control the elements in more minute, precise actions.
Weaponry: None. Meredia relies on her own physical strength, along with her other abilities. As mentioned above, however, she is able to shape assorted weapons from her elements, and she does so without preference.

Other Details

Personality: Remote and stoic at best to most observers, Meredia talks seldom. Meredia is extremely unfamiliar with the concept of self, and this oddity affects her actions in many ways; for instance, she is very unaware of her own emotions. She is much more open and relaxed when in her elements, or with those few she trusts. She rarely stops to consider options and possibilities, and this is quite likely a flaw; most of the time, she only sees one set course of action and steadfastly sticks to it, incapable of recognising any other possibility. Under layers of remoteness and mistrust, she is eternally curious, a child.
Brief Personal Details: Meredia spends her time wandering, and can usually be found in natural areas with an abundance of water. Strangely, seemingly in direct confliction with her personality, she also on occasion wanders to areas with a lot of people and stays in the background, taking in emotions. She seemingly does not need food, and in sleeping, she does not dream.

General Info

True Name: Unknown
Aliases/Nicknames: Brin
Gender: Male
Age: Mid twenties to early thirties, though he physically appears to be on the younger end of this range.
Note: I generally write from different stages of my characters’ lives. However, this is more or less the general age that Brin will be in most of them. ^_^
Species: Unknown, but perhaps an Elvish one; his ears are the elongated type.
Elements: Fire and earth.

Physical Info

Height: Approximately a tad over six feet, but he never stands to his full height very often. Leans a lot, slouches...
Build: Somewhat lanky, though it’s possibly also in the somewhat slouchy way he tends to hold himself.
Hair: Reddish-brown and somewhat long in the back. Surprisingly, somewhat tidy most of the time and tied back in a ponytail.
Skin Colour: Medium tone. Not exactly ‘white’; likely a mix of sorts.
Eyes: A nice green-blue in colour. Are half-opened most of the time, but this (he is prided to think) usually hides his perceptiveness.
Quirks: His hands twitch uncontrollably when he is nervous, getting to very unstable, unfunctional levels if he is under enough mental stress. Usually a good sign of when he’s lying, though he knows this and tries to hide it when it happens.
Clothing: Surprisingly, Brin has a decent sense of fashion, and has quite an assorted wardrobe, most on the line bordering formal and casual (and more than a few of these being the expensive sort). He is particularly fond of a large, tan coloured overcoat made of something resembling suede. Aside for a fondness of belts and a tendency to wear pants with pockets, little else can be summarized in this description.

Battle Info

Physical Details: Brin is not exceedingly strong, and his powers are laughable in comparison to others in the realms of the Battlefield. He is capable of, and has on more than a few occasions, won in a few good bar fights against ordinary humanoid opponents, but his strength does not exceed a normal (albeit healthy) human male's. Brin's reflexes are quite sharp, however, and so are his powers of observation, which make him a skilled tracker. Aside from these things, Brin has no other outstanding physical details of note.
Magical/Elemental Details: Nada. Zip. Zero. Well, Brin did learn some elementary magic spells in his younger days, in the fire and earth categories, but he can't quite remember how they went. He possesses no other powers.
Weaponry: Possesses some decent skill with the sword, and is mildly acquainted with the staff, the bow and so on. Doesn't use guns of any kind, but seems to be intimately aware of how they work. Does not actually carry any of those above-mentioned weapons on his body, though he may have a few stored on his spacecraft for one reason or another. Oh, yes, and he has a spacecraft. More for living on and travelling in than fighting with, though.

Other Details

Personality: Brin is quite friendly, though admittedly moreso with females. He has a good sense of humour, though when things are going crazy, he can get to be quite serious and also quite a drag in his role as a calculating realist. Despite all of these things, Brin's sense of responsibility is surprisingly quite strong. He often starts thinking too much, and as a consequence becomes stuck when making important decisions on what he should do. This, however, he fiercely keeps to himself.
Brief Personal Details: A man who does a lot of odd end jobs and has a lot of strange hobbies. Rumoured sometime bounty hunter though he has never actually been seen using a gun—one therefore can’t quite imagine how THAT went. Never seems to run out of money though he does quite little in terms of work, so he likely has some valuables stashed away somewhere. He hasn't ever been known to discuss his past with others, but since he is quite talkative in regards to virtually every interesting subject, people usually take this to mean he had a rather boring childhood.
