"Oh, don't mind me out here; I'll be right over when I'm needed most!"
Personal Information
Name:Jaelyn Armanix
Age:15
Gender:Male
Birthplace:Zarmina; Solaris Accord
Appearance:Standing at a very meager 145cm (4' 9") and weighing in at a
rather light 50kg (110lbs), Jaelyn is, for lack of a more respectful term...
small. Especially for a male. However, his lack of height doesn't actually stand out all that much, and it's in fact completely overshadowed by his slightly-higher-than-normal pitch of voice and the rather feminine features that his body seems to have to it. This isn't helped by Jaelyn's choice of attire, as no matter where he is, he'll always be seen wearing a T-shirt of some kind and a mid-length skirt. To complete the look, Jaelyn has long, bright pink hair that he ties into short twintails up top using red ribbons.
Despite still identifying as a male deep down, Jaelyn has grown very accustomed to the persona he has of a highly jovial teenage girl. That is to say, he's all about making friends and living life to the fullest. The moments where he's ever seen without a smile on his face are few and extremely far between, and even when there would be something that'd bring him down, rest assured he won't stay that way for long. Jaelyn's will to persevere through all of life's hardships stems from his abundant optimism. He has high hopes for a bright future ahead of him, regardless of how high or low other people's expectations stand with him.
While having a personal quest to make many friends within the Asterisk is all well and good, though, what really makes for a good friend is someone who's able to understand one's pains and capable of easing them through them. And Jaelyn... well, he tries. He hasn't experienced all the hardships that there were to endure out in the known universe, and he sure as hell isn't scholar in therapy. So why he chooses to try and stick his neck out for the people that he does is anyone's guess; especially considering that he knows damn well that he can't actually help some of them. Still, it isn't in him to knowingly leave people in anguish.
He may not be the brightest bulb in the kitchen or the sharpest tool in the shed, but Jaelyn always had a certain way with words. He always seems to say the exact words one may need to hear in order to improve the way they feel about themselves in the long run, even if their mood hasn't made a shift for the better right then and there. It's not as though he chooses those exact words either; it's more as though they naturally well within his heart. Point is, his heart's in the right place, and Jaelyn will always be there when you're in need.
Background:Jaden Elijea was an unassuming boy in the backwaters of the planet Zarmina. He had his group of friends (all fellow boys) doing all sorts of generic boy things... when suddenly he found an old MAID that had been discarded by the road. Having never been educated on what exactly a MAID was supposed to look like, Jaden naturally had no idea what he was even looking at, let alone how he was supposed to use it. After some egging on from his friends, however, he finally managed to get the antique MAID working; and he was able to some pretty cool things with it too, much to the amazement of his friends.
After revealing that he could mutate his body so it would appear more akin to a girl, Jaden was dared into sneaking into the girls' bathroom of his school and snapping a pic that would catch some of the older girls exposed and, thinking it'd be mere harmless fun, he accepted the dare. He'd been staking in the girls' bathroom for all of recess and a good portion of his lunch break in school, unaware that the mutations he'd done would've had more than enough time to stabilize by the time someone would take the bait (or he'd give up for the day, which he wound up doing). Jaden panicked when he found all this out, and tried frantically to revert back to how he appeared before the mutations stabilized, but he got himself caught by the principal... with his friends having long since scampered. Jaden's parents were quickly contacted, and he was practically coerced into explaining how he got his hands on a MAID and what the hell he was thinking when using it. His was since legally changed to Jaelyn Armanix, the name he said he'd use while his body took the form that it did.
Eight years had passed since that embarrassing incident, and Jaelyn was growing more and more skillful with the use of his MAID. He long since figured out how to change back to his former appearance, but scrapped it due to having grown attached to his "new form". He also managed to add a collection of even more impressive mutations that he could make to his repertoire, which he'd unveiled to the whole universe through social media. This managed to capture the attention of a couple of representatives from the Asterisk, who had traveled all the way Zarmina in order to contact Jaelyn directly. At first, Jaelyn was uneasy about the idea of being separated from his parents and all the friends he'd made, but the representatives assured him that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that many people his age would take without hesitation. So in the end, he accepted their offer, and was all set to prove himself to the universe once and for all.

M.A.I.D:Jaelyn's MAID takes the form of a smartphone and earphone combination. Once he places them in his ears, the
two main conduits automatically extend themselves deep into Jaelyn's ear canals, navigating past the ear drums and drilling their way through everything else until they detect brain matter, before they finally secure themselves directly into his brain. This may sound excruciatingly painful, but the drilling is so seamless and surgical that it barely registers as anything more than slight discomfort. The smartphone-resembling portion of the MAID serves as a remote control, and allows Jaelyn to mutate his body into whatever form he would need at any specific moment. He can make his muscles forcibly expand, giving him superior physical strength. If he needs any extra arms for any specific reason, he can grow them himself. If a part of his body just so happens to make contact with an enemy, he can have it secrete a poison that is potent enough to cause paralysis. He can transform his limbs into hardened, sharp constructs of bone that he can use to hack and slash at his enemies. He can even "patch up" any damage that his body had taken from combat.
It should be noted that this specific MAID acts nothing
like the modern variants. Its sheer age compared to the other MAIDs may play a factor in this, as it is theorized to have been constructed way back when Magitek was at its infancy. All mutations that occurred within Jaelyn's body are usually undone the second his MAID either is disconnected from his brain or detects
no actual brain activity. However, if Jaelyn's MAID remains "plugged" into his brain for long enough, certain mutations will begin to stabilize and take a more permanent form. The amount of time this will take will typically depend on how large of a change the mutations actually made to Jaelyn's body. Subtle changes would only need a single hour to stabilize, whereas massive changes may require more than 24. Furthermore, while the sky's the limit in terms of how exactly Jaelyn can morph his body, the vast majority of the changes he could possibly make will only be cosmetic at best, and as a result, they serve no purpose in combat. Aside from the aforementioned mutations above, the only other mutation Jaelyn has made in the past that could prove viable was the growth of wings; but even then, however, he's yet to realize how to grant the wings functionality.

Tidbits of Trivia:- The Zarmina that Jaelyn comes from is based on the real-life Zarmina, or as it's scientifically known as, Gliese 581g. It is 20 light years away from Earth, and is one of the first planets discovered that has the potential to support extraterrestrial life.
