Meria isn't very tall but not short either. Just in the middle I suppose. Hair that is cherry-blossomed color and always perfectly straight. Her bangs frame her face, curling up at the sides a bit. Her lips are always have a naturally pink tint to them and always looks moisturized. Her skin has no blemishes but she does have a beauty mark just under her right eye which might stand out to some.
On her back, she has a winged design with a knife in the middle.
It looks like it was a tattoo How did this happen? You'll have to ask yourself if you want to know~ her body looks fragile to some but she has muscle, she just doesn't get very bulky even though she exercises.
She only gives off an air of mystery perhaps. As if you can already tell that you won't be getting very close to her but she will always greet you with a sweet smile.
Her eyes are a peculiar color, looking as if they are a galaxy them selves. Purple mainly as well as other specs of pink and such mixed into it as they swirl around. This is an effect of being a baku. They seem to always be searching for people with dark pasts which makes their eyes mesmerizing. Seeming to try to suck you into her own little, lonely world~
She loves to wear her pink dress which she received from her mother and father. She often goes to get it fit so that she can wear it even when she gets older so tell her if you know a good tailor for her to go to~ Other than that, her clothes are... Usually pretty cute. She loves to wear over sized sweaters and the like due to the fact that she can snuggle up in them whenever she likes.
“Call me Meria!”
Name: Algentenia-- Name that her ex-parents named her. If you manage to get this out of her… Well, someone’s loved aren’t they.
Nicknames/Titles: -- Meria-- Name that her parents named her and the one she uses to introduce herself. Sweets-- Name that her father and parents used as a nickname for her.
“Almost 18!"
Age: 17
“Do you happen to be blind?”
Gender: Female
“Nightmare eater~”
Race: Baku
“Sexuality, huh. Well~ Whoever manages to interest me.”
Sexuality: Bisexual
Abilities: During her childhood, her parents loved to train her to be powerful and capable of mending for herself. But… You know how that worked out for themselves, haha!
--Nighttime meal,
“Nightmares?? Oh! Is it a child that I see asleep and trembling~? Well, let me help you with that and enjoy a fine meal at the same time.”
Nightmare meal-- Her most basic magic that she loves. She can of course, eat nightmares at any time. The process involves simply covering the eyes of the person and sucking their nightmare in. After a while, they will awake to find themselves not knowing why they were frightened or scared at all. She gets a full stomach from nightmares that are extremely terrifying since she loves spicy food. If it isn’t that scary, she’ll feel hungry still and unsatisfied, left with a sweet taste. Also, this power seems to cure scars cuts if they are only a week old. She doesn’t know why and doesn’t really care about that part but yeah, it adds some more good conscious for herself.
Weaknesses: Well, if it is too frightening or disturbing… She may end up throwing up. However, she honestly loves gore and especially killing so this rarely happens. “Bring it on nightmares!”
Nightmare to reality-- This power creates your horrid nightmare~ Well, she turns into your nightmare. If you are afraid of dark rooms, she’ll become a dark room herself. Afraid of drowning? She will become a pool filled with water. Just kidding! She has the power to create illusions that are far too realistic for their own good. It creates your nightmare right before your eyes and it makes it seem as though you can’t get away from it. She only becomes the most recent nightmare.
Weaknesses: This power has a stain on her mental state. She survives her life through the belief that killing her parents as well as other people is something that wasn’t that bad. However, everyone knows that there is nothing scarier that the stone cold truth~
Nightmare stealer-- This power allows her to use other persons recent nightmares for stanima, agility, power, and speed. They cannot be older than 2 weeks and the more frightening they are, the more powerful she gets. The range is pretty much anyone in the room at the time. She has to guess the person and hope they had a bad dream the previous night.
Weaknesses: If she were to accidently take a good dream, it wouldn't be of much help and in certain cases actually slow her down.
Other Skills:
Systema- Taught by her russian fighting teacher, she mastered this at a young age and likes to use it if she can rather than magic. The man that taught her was a local in her parents neighborhood. A nice man that fell in love with Meria apperantly. He seemed to want her to become stronger so that she wouldn't get taken advantage of. He was a tough teacher but Meria fell in love with the fighting style and trained hard every day, coming home with scars, bruises, and a bright smile. Systema focuses on controlling the important parts of the body—the elbows, neck, knees, waist, ankles, and shoulders, through pressure points and critical hits. The root philosophies of the system are based on the laws of biomechanics and anatomy, with much of the training focusing on studying the natural weaknesses of the human form so that one may manipulate them at will.
Multilingual- She was often told to learn different languages as well as encouraged by her parents. This was an easy task so she made sure that she made them proud. As of right now she can speak Russian, English, Japanese, Chinese, Spanish, French, Hindi, Portuguese, Russian, and German. Some she can speak or write better than the other but she can speak quite fluently as well as for some reason not having an accent.
Cooking- Her mother was a wonderful cook and the main chef for the cafe. She taught her how to cook and Meria can now cook as if she was a professional. “Food is a great way to capture a mans heart! How do you think I got your father?” she would always say but Meria knew that there was more to their love than food. Prepare your taste buds because she’ll melt your heart with the food that she can make. She loves to make simple espressos with cute latte art a lot.
See it 2 times memory- Pretty self-explanatory, no? She can memorize pretty much everything if she sees or reads it 2 times. It helps that she is also just book smart and loves to study~
Survival- She lived outside alone for more than 2 years. She picked up a few things. Camping and creating a decent meal with a self-made spear is pretty easy for her. As well as setting up a tent under 5 minutes. Other things as well but yeah, if you ever want to go camping, make sure to bring her just in case you get lost~
Inventory: Her bag which carries: A knife, a bunch of cash in her wallet, bandaids, alcohol wipes, advil, a photo of her parents as a couple when they were younger, and some candy for her sweet tooth.
"He may be sleezy as all hell, but he's actually not a bad person. No, wait, he's an extreme pervert though."
Master: Drael
“Well, people like to assume i’m innocent so I suppose I am~”
Personality: Meria gives off a sense of… innocence, that does not exist. She’s seen and done too many things to be called innocent~ Not that I’m going to get into that in the bio but let’s just say~ Her parents job included torture, killing, and holding people ransom on rare occasions and she was involved sometimes. Haha, butterflies always seem to be around her so that helps. People always meet her and make their own personality for her and she is quite fine with this. She isn’t a bad person or anything. She simply does not take into accord how her actions might affect the rest of her life. Killing her parents was practically something she did in the spur of the moment as well as having anger built up inside of her.
She hates to be bored. Boredom is one of her least favorite things in the world. This is probably a reason that she got into books. A parallel universe that always seemed to fill her with emotions that she hadn’t experienced before. She love stories and her father's stories were some of her favorites. By father, she never means her actual parents, always the ones that took her under their wing without even know who she was or what she had done. They were her ideal humans. Or demons. Or angels. Or whatever they were, she never really cared about such trivial things.
If you are an entertaining person, she will adore you, always seeming to be by your side and such. This does not mean that she is a cruel person that discards people that do not entertain her. Simply that she doesn’t stick around too long. However, she has a soft spot for cute things or people. True "innocence" is something that is hard to find. Her mask is a smile that seems to always be there and it isn’t really fake as much as delusional. She never found killing her ex-parents to be something horrid and never understood why people seemed to judge her harshly when they found out which they usually do since she doesn’t really hide it. She prides herself on her parents that she loves.
Sweetly smiling and laughing at dark jokes are a habit of hers. She won’t be a rude person. That would be shameful to her dear parents that raised her and were absolute angels. That is pretty much the reason that she is pretty sweet and can’t be rude really. She loves to watch battles and being in them? Hmm… I suppose it depends on the opponent. She hates wasting time with idiots but loves entertaining ones so if you piss her off but manage to pique her interest, expect to find her around you without even knowing the reason why and smiling. She's pretty damn straightforward but don't worry, she'll make it look like she was trying to compliment you. How does she really want to be? She wants to be childish but...Hm. (sadist?) ---Rest in IC.
"It's quite boring though."
Backstory: After she killed her parents, her life somehow took a big turn. Well, people would think so I suppose. Why did she kill her parents? She’ll almost always give a simple reason, “They were goddamn psychos!” with a triumphant hmph. The actual story was simply. Her parents were in the black market business (as well as other illegal stuff that she doesn’t know too well about) and got rich off of that. They were known for providing others with the best nightmares. Only professional night catchers can do this but her parents had the power to kill people and collect their death nightmare. A delicacy to all Baku's. This nightmare was a colletion of their fear of death and other fears finally conquering them and killing them. It was the most frightening nightmare of all and went for well, a lot of money. They did other things that involved humans as well. However, they were never satisfied with how they were living. Often bringing people to the house and gathering others to bet on who would win . A fight to the death between humans. Wonderful, no? Meria always had to watch, tied to a chair with a blank expression on her face. She was bored. One day she suggested to her dear parents, “Why don’t you two fight? I would bet my allowance~” with this, they were startled but all the same glad that she was taking an interest in their hobby. However, they didn’t agree. Instead, they brought her two closest friends and told her to bet on them. She was scared. They had blindfolds and she had no choice.
After her dearest friend had died, that same night, she snuck into her parents room. A knife in one hand and a wad of cash in the other. They were quite the deep sleepers. She silently tied them up as if they were marionettes., waiting until they awoke. Once they did, she played with them for a while. A simple fight to the death but much more gruesome than her parents way. “Aww, daddy died. I knew mommy was stronger~” with that, she killed her mother and fled her home, understanding that she couldn’t stay there any longer. All this when she was only 11.
Even with this, she didn’t think of herself as crazy at all. She never actually liked her parents anyways. Toys that were beginning to fail in entertaining her. They never actually showed her parental love and always made her do certain dirty work for the business.
After a while of living on the streets, at age 14, an old man (Well, old to her at least. She thought everyone older than 18 was old at the time.) found her and invited her into his home. She had a knife with her that was dripping with blood as well as her powers to accompany her. If he tried anything, she was more than ready to kill the old man (again, the couple is actually in their 20’s). However, the house was silent. Until a woman came who was old but seemed to be aging very well. They both greeted her with a sweet smile and openly allowed her to become their child. After this, her childhood was wonderful. They owned a small local cafe in the neighborhood.
Spoiled to the core yet understanding how to treat her dear parents she was honestly living a very blissful life as well as doing many things around the house. Not to mention that they were getting money every month from an unknown source that was herself. They were actually poor but somehow managed to look like they chose to live that way. Maybe they did. Spoiled… I suppose she thinks that way only because her actual parents were such crap, haha!
On her 17th birthday, her present wasn’t much. They couldn’t afford anything extravagant but they got her something that meant much more to her. A wonderful new dress that appeared to look like the one she had on when she first came to the home. A more polished version that was her size. Her mother had obviously worked a long time on it. Also, they explained that they thought that she should start going to Montogane academy. She was surprised, not knowing how they had figured out about her powers but perhaps… They were magic users themselves. “We couldn’t provide you with a proper education…” Oh. They didn’t know of the fact that she was practically a genius. Remembering a lot of college material by age 13 as well as from the help of private classes her ex-parents provided her with, and doing most of the finances since her parents were always failing at counting their damn money. Her memory was like a steel trap, remembering many things that she actually focused on. As well as studying every night with study materials. Hey, she ran away with home but she took a lot with her before she did. Including cash of course. She agreed due to the fact that they seemed to actually feel bad about not being able to teach her school education and magic. The last words of “I love you. Thank you for everything.” before leaving the house with a polite bow and a kiss on each of their cheeks.
