Mirei  RACE: Kelvic - Panther AGE: 8 BIRTHDAY: Fall 12th, 503 GENDER: Female --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONCEPT With a wildness at heart, this untamed Kelvic lives a simplistic life day by day taking care of only herself. The vividness of her bright green eyes express this fact openly, the vertically split pupils taking in everything she sees. Being a night dweller by her own choice her skin has become almost as pale as the moon itself, which is a stark contrast to the pure blackness of her long hair. The thick, tangled strands are always left free to hang with the ends just barely reaching the middle of her back. The contrast between black hair and pale skin may be sharp but in a way it adds a different air of beauty to her. Though she prefers to live in the wilderness away from civilization, Mirei can never help but to visit every now and then. Most of the time she can't explain the deep-seated need but it could very well be the desire for having someone she could be loyal to. Other times she requires a small amount of supplies or is just simply curious. Yet due to her loner status in life she is anti-social and always suspicious of everyone around her. Her inability to trust others is partially attributed to this and in the end causes conflict between two of her fears: being alone for the rest of her life and being betrayed again by someone she trusts implicitly. This has no permanent effect on her ethics since she bases them on a day by day case, but one could say that she is always of a neutral standing. Mirei's main love is collecting shiny things, such as jewelry and trinkets. In a way it's her own little quirk and normally she can keep herself under control to not steal anything or splurge. However, there are times when a shiny is especially interesting to her that she can't resist. This or her own curiosity could very well possibly be the cause of her own downfall one day. Ever since the tragic night of her past, she has had a deep fear of fire. She can usually keep this fear under a rational mind when it comes to campfires, torches, fire pits, et cetera. It's when a fire starts to get out of control or someone tries to use it as a weapon that her fear really affects her. The long, jagged scars on her left arm running from shoulder to wrist are another painful reminder of that night. They had been the worst of her injuries and were so bad that her whole arm has lost all feeling. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HISTORY Mirei wasn’t always distrusting of people or even anti-social. In fact, she had been quite the opposite when she was a child. Living in a simple home with her bondmated parents - a Human father and jaguar Kelvic mother - and two siblings, she had been an out-going, care-free girl that chatted with anyone who crossed her path. Her mother and father had even encouraged this, believing it was good for her. The only person she ever had trouble with at times was her older step-brother, Tobias. It had always seemed as if he didn’t want anything to do with her and she could never understand why. Several times she had attempted to get close to him since they were a family now but eventually she just gave up. It wasn’t more than a year later that her little sister was born. From that day on Mirei helped raise her sister and the pair grew to be inseparable. Even though she had been birthed by a Kelvic woman and had a Kelvic sister, it didn’t seem to bother Narese that she ended up all Human like her half-brother and father. Life was good over the next five years and the family couldn’t have been any happier. Even Tobias had seemed to finally accept Mirei and her mother, seeming to calm down from his anger towards them. He had even begun to show kindness and other such actions, but instead of being relieved Mirei felt a strange sense of foreboding. Again she didn’t understand what was going on but since her parents didn’t appear to be picking up on anything she passed the feeling off as just a part of growing up. Mirei thought she knew everything she needed to know about life and the world and was even ready to part ways with her family but she felt a need to stick around for a while longer for her sister. It happened during a cold night in the middle of fall and it was a night that Mirei would never forget. She had woken up to black smoke curling in and around her’s and Narese’s room while small wisps of red flames began licking from beneath the door. At that sight she had started panicking, feeling like she had been trapped in a cage with no way out. Yet somehow she had managed to get Narese and herself out of the home. The fate of her parents was unknown until she got outside where she found Tobias waiting for them. At first, Mirei had been relieved to see him standing there but upon a closer second look she realized that something was terribly wrong. It hadn’t taken her long to figure out how the home had been set on fire, especially since Tobias held the very torch used in his left hand. In his right was a long dagger coated with the blood of her parents. And from the cold look in his eyes, she knew that Tobias had planned this, done it under his own free will. But the tragedy and pain had only started. Tobias had become jealous of Mirei and her mother not only because his father had taken another wife soon after his own parents split, but also because they were both Kelvic. At first, Tobias just didn’t want his father marrying someone else but then that resentment grew into a jealousy as he had wanted to be born a Kelvic instead of Human. So finally Tobias had acted on his rage and jealousy, killing their parents and then he had attempted to enslave Mirei forcefully. Even though Narese was spared from Tobias’s wrath since she was Human she still tried to get him to stop hurting Mirei. Being so young she had no understanding of why Tobias was doing this but that didn’t stop her from trying to save Mirei. But it only ended up getting her killed as she jumped into the path of a blow that was only meant to maim Mirei but ended up a fatal one for Narese. Having her sister die in her arms, killed by their own brother, had thrown Mirei into a vicious rage and in that rage she killed Tobias. Tobias’s betrayal had hurt Mirei deeply, but it was the loss of her parents and sister that hurt the most. After killing her brother she had sat on the ground cradling her sister’s body for several hours, mourning Narese’s death and the death of her parents. In one night she had lost everything that was important to her. When she was able, Mirei buried Narese’s body and erected three pieces of lumber next to the grave – one for Narese and one for each of their parents. As for Tobias’s corpse, it was left out in the open at the mercy of the elements. After a last good-bye to her sister and parents, Mirei left the charred remains of her home taking with her only necessities that had gone undamaged, or mostly, from the fire. That night Mirei had learned a harsh lesson of life, one that she would never forget: Not everyone can be trusted, especially those who are close to you. Over time she survived as best she could, sticking mainly to the nearby wilds of cities and towns but never taking up a permanent home as she preferred the life of a wanderer. She removed herself from society for the most part, hardly ever saying a word and never letting herself get close to anyone for fear that they may betray her as well. |
