She excels in the areas of mathematics, language, writing, and memorizing facts. She had also been raised bilingual and so she is fluent in High Valyrian as well as English. Even though she is a girl, her parents made sure to get her an education fit for a Targaryen Queen. Always the creative one, Myriah loves to paint, and embroider. Much of her time is spent doing those activities. Otherwise she can be found riding her horse, walking in the garden, or reading in the library. She also keeps a journal, and writes in it often. Her hand writing is beautiful, albeit a little on the swirly side. She has a very enchanting singing voice, and use to sing her little sister Alysanne to sleep. Her mother once told her that her voice was a blessing from the gods. Her old Tutor was a fan of botany and plants, so she knows quite a bit about them, and she is a fan of the flower language. [/indent] [color=9FF781]Weaknesses[/color] [indent]The most obvious weakness is that she is slowly loosing her mind, not that anyone knows this, as its only a rumor outside her family and sworn servants. Her fears of going crazy, and loosing it forever haunt her daily, though she does a good job most of the time maintaining her [i]'I'm Fine'[/i] facade. Along with the crazy spreading through her mind she also has nightmares and dreams of the prophetic variety. Though they hardly make any since to her. Do to the terrible illness she suffered from last year, her health is not as it once was. Strenuous activities such as prolonged running, fast passed dancing, and most sports are not something she can really do. Unless she wan't to start coughing, and then faint. She also get sick easier then most, and is a tad anemic. Interestingly enough she can not swim. Not that she never tried to learn, but almost drowding when she was six has made her steer clear of deep water since. She is also rather terrible at chess, even though its her father's favorite game. Her seven year old sister typically beats her at the game.

The apple of her fathers eye, and a loving older sister to her younger siblings. But that was all before the madness got its claws in her, back when she was nine years old. Now a young woman of 16, she is a insecure, anxiety ridden mess of nerves, and paranoia most days. Though over the last two years she has learned to appear untroubled in public. At heart she is a still the sensitive and gentle girl she once was, but the erratic, unstable, and irritable behaviors have become more and more apparent lately, and she is on the verge of cracking. She is scared for herself, and fearful that she might harm others during one of her breaks with reality. She has become rather hesitant, and vulnerable compared to her old self. Her natural empathetic heart does not help, as other peoples emotions can influence her own rather easily. She is desperate for help, and understanding. The fits of madness happen more often then ever now, and she can't stop the visions, or voices in her head. To the court Myriah is known for her beauty, charitable works, intelligence, and gentleness. But rumors of her strange behavior and violet out burst have not gone unheard. Everyone is wondering when she'll loose it.[/indent] [color=9FF781]History[/color] [indent]Myriah is the first born and oldest child of King Daerys and Queen Nymeria. She is third in line for the throne, behind her younger brothers Prince Aenar, and Prince Valerion. As a child Myriah was bright and energetic. She was a happy little princess with a golden future ahead of her. She spent her time among the dragons, playing dolls with her younger siblings, reading books to the horses in the stables, and following her father around the castle. She would run around the gardens playing tag, and hide and go seek. Her mother would braid her hair and tell her stories of Dorne, and far off lands. Little Myriah excelled in her studies, especially in mathematics. Unfortunately that all changed around the time she turned nine years old. That when she began having the nightmares, and hearing whispers when no one was there. She would wake up to her own screams, covered in a cold sweat. At first the Maester though it was a childish phase, and then he concluded that she was ill. She was given sleeping droughts, tonics, and other remedies, and though some dulled the nightmare, and muffled the illusions, she slowly got worse and worse. By the time she was twelve the fits of madness had begun, and her good days became less. The fits were hardly anything at first, they seemed more like tantrums, but things only got worse with time. Biting her nails till they bleed, headaches, and shaky hands accompanied her new anxious self. She way always afraid to go to sleep, would she wake up completely crazy in the morning, or would she be ok for another day? Seeing things that weren't there, and lapses with reality became a monthly if not weekly occurrence. She focused most of her time on her studies, and keeping herself sane. When she was fourteen she came down with a terrible fever, and that was the turning point, there was no fixing it according to the Maester. Once she recovered from the fever her health was never the same, as her lungs became weak, and the dark circles around her eyes never seemed to fade no matter how much sleep she got. Her bad days started to outweigh the good ones, and she spent more and more of her time withdrawing into herself. When she was fifteen she was betrothed to Jon Royce's youngest brother Olyver, but the engagement quickly dissolved as Myriah's mental health worsened, and she refused to burden anyone else. She is trying her best to stay sane, but the voices seem to be winning, and her nightmares seem to becoming true.[/indent] [color=9FF781]Theme Song[/color] [indent][url=https://youtu.be/_WmSPTkmBTA]King – Lauren Aquilina[/url] [sub]You lost your mind in the sound There's so much more You can reclaim your crown You're in control Rid of the monsters inside your head[/sub][/indent] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [center] [img]http://i.imgur.com/9yWTTE6.png[/img] [/center] [color=9FF781]Extra Stuff[/color] [indent]Dogs tend to hate her for some reason.
