"Sometimes in the waves of change we find our true direction." ~stands at 4'6, weighs around 90 pounds, and her hair reaches well past her waist~ Mara Farraige 16 Female Mermaid | also called Merrow(Irish) Deriving from the Gaelic word murúch the Merrow is the Irish equivalent of the mermaid and mermen of other traditions. These beings are said to appear as human from the waist up but have the body of a fish from the waist down. They have a gentle, modest, affectionate and benevolent disposition.There are other names pertaining to them in Gaelic - Muir-gheilt, Samhghubha, Muidhuachán, and Suire. They would seem to have been around for millenia because according to the bardic chroniclers, when the Milesians first landed on Irish shores the Suire, or sea-nymphs, played around them on their passage. The merrow were capable of attachment to human beings and there are reports of them inter-marrying and living among humans for many years. However usually they eventually return to their former homes beneath the sea. They are closely related to the Sirens of Greek Mythology. Mara is very shy and kind though she is so shy to the point where she can't really talk in front of other people. Having not socialized with anyone outside of her family left Mara with no knowledge on how to relate to others and so she hardly ever knows what to say or how to act. She tends to blurt a lot of things out without realizing it or thinking about her words. She also gets embarrassed and flustered way too easily; often blushing and hiding her face. Being as innocent as she is to the world, she trusts way too easily and is oblivious about a lot of stuff, especially when it comes to flirting/love or basically any interest thrown her way. She can be very insecure about herself and her body and she tends to second-guess herself a lot. Mara can become upset very easily and is very sensitive; also being very clumsy and tends to trip over her own feet a lot when in human form. Despite all of this however. Mara loves helping people and will do everything she can to make them smile. She looks at the brighter aspects in life and tries not to dwell on negative thoughts. Mara has a habit of thinking out-loud and she tends to talk to herself in her native tongue. Mara also puts others needs before her own and in most cases she reacts without thinking of her own well-being: if someone is being hurt, Mara will immediately try and protect them with any means possible without even considering herself. She is very, very selfless. Mara can be very curious and is very easily captivated and awed by even the simplest of objects and things. She is very much like a child in a way. Mara and her family lived in a cave at the base of the Bay Cliffs in Ireland. There were legends of their kind that were circling around Ireland but only the older generation believed in such tales, the younger ones scoffing and passing it off as just a silly fairly-tale. Mara was an only child and she was loved dearly by both of her parents. The young Mermaid enjoyed swimming through the ocean waters, exploring its depths though she was not allowed to stray too far from the cave without one of her parents. During the day Mara and her family had to keep a low profile but at night Mara liked to sneak away from the cave and sit on a rock, singing in the moonlight. Myth-seekers heard a rumor that people in a small village in Ireland kept hearing beautiful singing at night. They traveled to the village where they stuck around for a week. On the fourth day they spotted Mara sitting on her usual rock, singing. They almost captured her in a net but she managed to get away at the last second. When the letter arrived her parents agreed that the school would be much safer for her and after many hugs and goodbyes she was off, leaving home for the first time ever. ~ Can speak to any marine animal ~ Can control water ~ Siren Song(She doesn't have very good control over this one, the pull of the song is not very strong to those that hear it because Mara is still young) + She is very agile and fast in mermaid form + Her powers are stronger in the water + She heals faster when in the water - She is very clumsy in human form - She is very fragile and weak in human form - Her powers are weak when not around water ~Likes~ ~ Bright colors ~ Water ~ Marine animals ~ Singing ~ The sky ~Dislikes~ ~ Fire ~ Loud noises ~ Being grabbed suddenly ~ Thunderstorms ~ Nets ~ Animals being hurt She speaks Gaelic and while she can understand English, she has trouble speaking it and will often mix English and Gaelic words together when angry, frustrated, or scared.

Personality Generally serious, cold and even a little cruel, there is a sadistic side to Kali without a doubt. However, despite her dark origins, she can be surprisingly compassionate and even sympathetic. She is also extremely curious and has a deep love for other worldly cultures and definitely prefers the surface world to Hell. Being a Hellhound, she is especially dutiful and loyal -- especially to whoever her Master may be at the time. Biography "Created" from lesser spirits in Hell, Kali found her life surrounded by a comforting furnace that never seemed to die out. Being quite young and not even of the Flame or Cerberus variation, she quickly gained reputation in the infamous Underworld due to her skill, loyalty and maturity. Despite still being a youngling, she was sent to the surface world as a spy of sorts. Finding it too harsh for her to handle, she somehow ended up in the academy less than a year later. Dorm Number 13 Other: Being a Hellhound, she is invincible to fire and regular "Human" diseases (though this may not be the case if the disease comes from an unnatural force); she can also transform into her true form at will. Cars and wind chimes also scare the living daylight out of her.
