Meredith stands around 5'5". however, this tends to fluctuate depending on her mood and if she needs to be a tad bit taller to reach something. She normally wears black, loose fitting clothing consisting of a t-shirt and skirt. Normally, her hair is tied back into a long, blond ponytail, and her face twisted into some sort of toothy grin as her amber colored eyes search the area for...'test subjects'

Magic:Alchimia:
-Body Sculpt-
Meredith, is am Alchemist. And a Medela mage. At least, she has studied both schools quite effectively, and has come up with an effective combination of both, but ultimately her magic falls under Alchimia.
She has control over her own body and can make her body do mostly whatever she wants. Mostly used through some form of grotesque bone/skin/blood manipulation. Such as hardening the bones in her body to extreme levels, hardening her skin into nigh-impenetrable armor, and even using her own blood as projectiles. If its part of her body, she can manipulate it - even regenerate limbs or make new ones if she has enough energy. She could even change her appearance on a whim.
Of course, the greater the change she makes, the more energy and strain on her body it uses. Fully functional limbs take a bit more energy to take, so she usually sticks with sinewy tentacle-like appendages in that regard.
She also has a bit of a limited effect on others as well, though not as pronounced as her ability to heal/manipulate her own body structure. Healing small, non life threatening wounds is quite possible given a few seconds.
Strengths:First of all, her magic basically turns her own body into a living weapon. She can change the structure of the chemicals in her body, such as increasing the ratio of carbon in her skin effectively making her skin as hard as diamond. Even making a few extra limbs if she had too.
This, makes her a very durable and very effective, and adept fighter - especially deadly at close range. She can add muscle mass to herself for sheer strength, or adjust her muscles for optimal speed and agility.
She can also heal other people, to some extent. While she's no replacement for an actual healer, she can heal minor-to medium sized injures should she need too, though it takes time and in a battle situation it might not be the best solution or use of her abilities.
Weaknesses:while she's not completely helpless at range, its not her forte. Her best method of attack, is simply launching a sharpened bone at something at medium speed, and that's not really going to be doing any major damage. Plus the lost body mass will cost her quite a bit of energy.
Secondly, she is still flesh and bone as most of her transformations are. Fire and Ice tend to work quite effectively against her. She still feels pain as well, and any new limbs she make will still feel it as well.
Her regenerating ability isn't perfect either, and it takes time. While she can visibly close wounds within seconds, any injury larger than a small cut is going to take a few seconds to heal. And such healing takes energy.
healing others takes noticeably more energy.
And if someone happens to break her arm, sternum, or shoulder blade her magic ability decreases quite a bit. If someone manages to shatter all three before she can heal, she'll effectively lose her ability to fight. Of course, such information would be difficult to come by.
She has no formal training in close quarters combat, even though she relies on it a lot during a fight. A skilled fighter who does, could easily win if they're clever. Just try not to get hit with a fist that carries enough force to send a truck flying a few feet.
Catalyst:Intricate runes carved into her bones.
Inventory:-Various vials
-Dissecting Knives
-scissors
-Usually has some sticks of celery or other fruits stashed on her somewhere.
-Syringes
Familiar:N/A
Squad Name:N/A
Personality:Meredith is usually quite the friendly person. She's a bit on the hyperactive side, More often than not, she acts like a kid. Her childish nature tends to annoy some people
Most people find her a bit odd, however, especially considering the time she spends studying biology and her...uhm...fascination with dissecting people and animals. She spends a lot of time studying human and animal anatomy and can pinpoint weak spots on humans quite quickly, and is quite intelligent in the Biological field.
She loves dissecting and meeting new creatures she's never seen before. It's her life mission to create a comprehensive guide to the biology and anatomy of every single living creature on earth. Or at least as damn well near to it as she can get.
Don't tell her aliens aren't real. just don't.
talks to herself a lot.
Backstory:Born in the US to a pair of doctors, Meredith had a relatively easy life growing up. Her parents were quite successful, and her father was a leading doctor in the field of cancer research. At an early age, just like her parents she was interested in the human body and the medical field as well, and devoted a lot of her time as a kid to learning about such topics.
However...eventually she grew rather bored with studying just humans. Which is when she turned to magic. It started with Alchemy. Just some minor things, but she wasn't satisfied and soon wished to attend Liseranna.
Where she met a guy, by the name of Graham. Thanks to her training a bit before, she was put into year 3, and he into year 2. However, seeing an opportunity she took it. So, she decided to learn Medela magic from him. And the two have been besties ever since. At least, in her opinion they're besties.
He's honestly terrified of her.
Sometime during her fourth year, she decided she didn't need a catalyst any more, considering she was getting better with her magic, carrying one was a bit of a hassle so she tossed it and decided to undergo...a procedure to fix that. With a little help from Graham.
She carved open her own body, and carved Runes right into her bones. It was a painful, arduous task that took quite a while. She nearly died several times, but thanks to her control over her own body she was able to sustain herself. She could have stopped with just one, but that wouldn't do. If someone broke her bones, her shattered a rune that would be bad. So she carved them into three locations. On her sternum, one on her left humerus, and one on her shoulder blade. The intricate carvings all connect, but work independently of one another. However, even if one is shattered/broken it will significantly decrease the rate at which she can use magic. if all of them are shattered, she won't be able to use it at all, until they naturally heal.
And now she's a fifth year.
