Name: Merry Lambert
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Side: Neutral, but could easily be manipulated either way
Personality: Merry gives off a vibe of “I'll mess with you if you mess with me.” Being raised in a Curdun Cay with little to no rules or authority shaped Merry into an independent girl with little need to give respect to those who have not earned it. She rarely asks others for help, despite often needing help. Deep down, Merry is a bit of a lonely person and is too shy to initiate conversations with people she has just met. She is also extremely respectful. If you are older then her then she will listen to anything you say and will do anything you ask her to. The only exception to this is police officers.
It takes a lot of work to get close to Merry, both physically and mentally. She often tries to avoid people unless told not to and will always act very quietly around people as if scared of messing up and getting in trouble. Merry finds it easier to get along with other conduits, especially those who promise they won't be hurting her. Or if they bring cookies.
Biography: Merry lived a very peaceful and happy life before her powers started showing. She lived in a small town, one in which all of the neighbors knew each other and were all friendly, with her mother. Her mother, although raising a young girl as a single mother, was given lots of support from her work colleagues at the police station. The two of them lived together in their peaceful little house and Merry couldn't be happier. However, having a mother who worked as a police officer, she was exposed to a lot of information about the Conduits. The small town wasn't given much access to the DUP, so many normal police officers became equip to help keep the peace, her mother included.
Bio Terrorist. She heard the word all of the time. But she never thought she would be on the receiving end.
She began showing powers when she was six years old. She awoke one morning to her entire room covered in frost and ice. The young Merry was terrified, she knew what happened to bio terrorists. Her mother assured Merry that she would never turn her in, and this would just be their own little secret. And so it was. Merry started to become very reclusive. Merry found it harder and harder to hide her powers as time went on, it was almost painful for her to suppress them. Eventually the police were notified. It is unknown to Merry who called the police, if it was a scared neighbor or someone feeling the temperature drop around Merry.
Several days after Merry's tenth birthday, a squad of armed police officers arrived at Merry's house. Terrified, Merry's mother instructed her to hide in the house while she tired to pacify the police officers. Merry stayed huddled in her bedroom, until she heard a gunshot and the sound of her mother screaming. Merry remembers crawling to her bedroom window, and seeing her mother fall to the ground in a puddle of blood, as well as an officer holding a gun out in front of him, aimed where her mother once stood. Merry let out a horrified scream unlike she had ever made before. And then her mind goes completely blank. The next thing she can remember is waking up on her driveway, the police cars and officers around her completely constricted in chunks of ice.
And DUP cars pulling up next to her, a Miss Brooke Augustine stepping out.
She spent the next five years locked up in Curdun Cay. She was kept away from other Conduits, always locked up in cold spaces. The experiments only made Merry feel stronger. Freedom only brought fear to Merry. Curdun Cay had become a home to Merry, Brooke Augustine had become an almost maternal figure to her. Outside of Curdun Cay she had nothing, no home and no family. She now spends her time in an old abandoned apartment building in New York, which is now been altered for her own safety and comfort. The top half of the apartment building is completely covered in ice. She keeps to herself and takes care of herself. If living in Curdun Cay taught her anything, the only person who can take care of you is you.
