◾ Personality:
Myriam has never been particularly interested in leading. The very idea seems to put her on edge, as so many things do. She prefers to spend her time entertaining herself, fishing or reading by the shore when she can find the time to sneak away. Although she's something of an introvert, it's rare for her to turn down the company of others, and she's friendly and approachable enough to carry a conversation with. However, the only time she's completely comfortable is in the presence of her family, with the exception of her father.
While not necessarily honest by nature, it's easy to tell when Myriam is lying or hiding something. Her nervous demeanor usually gives away her dishonesty. As a result, she tends to tell the truth, saving herself from the embarrassment should she choose not to. Because she lacks any sort of desire to lead, Myriam would much rather have others tell her what to do, or to advise her in certain matters. Her inability to make her own decisions consequently makes her an easily manipulated person.

◾ Biography:
The second child and first born daughter of Arthur and Amara Gully, Myriam was very quiet and soft-spoken throughout her adolescence. This only worsened as her father's demeanor soured, for reasons unbeknownst to her, making her self conscious and nervous. As a result, her relationship with Arthur became increasingly strained, to the point where she found his very presence suffocating. And when Lucan left to join the Kingsguard and Ithobal set sail to travel the world, she too longed to leave her home one day, away from the scrutinizing eye of her father, and away from any possibility of ever leading the Gully family.
When she wasn't being tutored in manners of courtship and diplomacy, Myriam preferred to spend her time alone, if not with her mother and sisters. She often found solace in fishing on the docks, whether or not she caught something, or reading through tales and legends of ferocious sea creatures and brave sailors who conquered the seas so many years ago. With Ithobal's upcoming return to their family's home, Myriam has been able to relax, for the moment, knowing that he still remains a viable heir. However, nervousness and concern still plague her mind, as she anxiously waits for the day that her parents marry her off to another family.
