It is often covered by a dark hood and left down; as unlike her elven kin she does not care for braids. Her naturally fair skin has been tanned to a warm honey tone thanks for her many days adventuring in the woods; and her hands made tough from drawing her bowstring. Although Merilwyn is petite, owning a height of 5’4”, her presence is firm and confident. Personality: (to be finished later) History: For many years the fortress of Galadhon had been a home to the young lady Merilwyn, and her older brother Vhenan. The two hailed from the wealthy house of Estelle, and had been schooled extensively in magic and nobility. While her brother had taken a liking to the latter; Merilwyn found she had a natural talent in the arcane, specifically with the elements. Swift with a bow and armed with her magic, she became a well known elemental archer. She rose quickly in the ranks of Andrann battle mages, those below her took to calling the maiden the ‘burning rose’. In early adulthood, Vhenan had become an ambassador while Merilwyn was commander of a small unit of archers. The two lived peacefully in Galadhon; until a small party of ambassadors and artisans, including her brother, had been sent beyond their stronghold. Supposedly, to negotiate trade with nearby merchants. It seemed a simple task, until they didn’t return. Scouts confirmed that the party was attacked, but could not say by who nor if there were any survivors. Hopeful that her brother lived, Merilwyn pushed for further search parties, support, even retaliation against these attackers. None would give their support, saying that they could not risk more lives. The Andrann is a small clan after all. Merilwyn, without the permission, went off to find her answers. When she finally reached her brother, he had indeed not survived. It would appear human bandits ambushed the party, they have after all sought after Galadhon for years. Merilwyn could have returned to the Andrann, asked for forgiveness and resumed her family title; instead she left and become Mûi. She lived by herself for a total of five years or so, taking the occasional job to earn money. Until word reached her of the Mad King Vyshaan, as she was ready to lend a hand. Equipment: ~ a simple embroidered traveling bag ~ a small pouch to carry mint and other herbs ~ concealed throwing knives ~ a lightweight, small and simple sword ~ a silver pendant with red jewels baring the Estelle family crest [indent]~ a beautiful longbow, hand crafted by Merilwyn herself. No expense was spared, as the finest rosewood and hickory was used; along with soft leather for the grip and a tight bowstring. Runes native to her Andrann lineage are engraved upon the dark wood, so that the bow may withstand her elemental magic. Meril has taken a liking to calling the bow Rýn; elvish for burning[/indent] Other: As a skilled archer, Meril has extensive knowledge on bow’s and how to make them. With the right tools she could fashion a simple recurve in only a few hours. She has basic knowledge about herbs and where to find them. In elvish, Merilwyn means ‘rose maiden’.She loves mint, makes great tea, and is a talented artist.[/hider] [/quote] Let me know when you are finished. I like what i have seen thus far :D
