Meera Shadowvein
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Meera Shadowvein (Pronounced: M-ear-a Sh-ad-ow-vane)
Race: Magikai (Ancient magical race devoted to exploring different elements of magic)
Age: 29 (in human years, 87 in Magikan years - 1 Human = 3 Magikan)
Sex: Female
Hair: Long silvery hair shielding her left eye, down to their neck.
Eyes: Pure black pupils with white iris.
Weight: 7 Stone 4 ounces. (I Don't know what that is in pounds)
Height: 5ft 7inches
Weapon: A tall staff (4ft) that Meera can store shadow magic in and access easily. She can do this in her mind, but the staff lets her store more than other Magikai.
Armour: She uses spells as her armour, and her daemon for protection. Her clothing doesn't offer protection.
Strengths: Meera is a Magikan Daemonologist (The only one in history) and therefore has influence over shadow magic and summoning. Using her Shadow powers she can summon demons to aid her, for various purposes. She also uses over forms of offensive shadow magic (see Skills/Magic). She can also sense power and magic in the air, alerting her to friend or foe. Meera has a rapid growth rate and learns and improves very quickly.
Weaknesses: Her defense against physical attacks is weak, because her shadow magic can only protect her from other magical and elemental attacks, she relies on her demons to protect her. Because of naiveness and lack of experience, she hasn't mastered her art yet, and makes minor mistakes. Also her spells are less affective against stronger enemies.
Skills/Magic:
Summon: Meera summons a daemon to aid her, she can only summon one demon at any time, But she must create the daemon with strengths and weaknesses in her head just as am doing now. This requires intense concentration, because it is far from mastered.
Shadow sphere: Her basic offensive attack that can be unleashed in many forms and ways, however it always is a perfect sphere of shadow energy. This is the only spell she has mastered and experiments with it frequently to try and maximize its power.
Psychic combustion: A strong spell that will gradually cripple meeras target from the inside, which will kill slowly over time if the foe is weak, but if not, they will be less durable and slower for a considerable amount of time. This spell is nearly mastered so it doesn't require much concentration.
Unholy shield: Meeras only known defensive skill. She can beckon a shield that is made form pure shadow, it blocks all attacks apart from physical attacks, which pass straight through. But the shadows can also be used to cloak or disguise Meera. This spell isn't mastered but is still simple for Meera.
Mind Shove: Meera manipulates the dark energies in the air to push,pull or grasp something. This is like a physical attack and is more effective against humans, as they are less comfortable with magic. this is hard to master, but strong from a novices level.
Appearance: Meera wears a long purple robe and that covers her body. It is en crested with the crest of Zhor, the Magikan city. But she is also made to wear black gloves, a symbol of her being a Daemonologist, something that is despised by many Magikai, and Meera being the only one of her race was seen to disgrace the city. Because all the other Magikai choose to follow naturistic and holy teachings. She also has black wrappings.
Personality: Meera is surprising upbeat and kind, in contrast to her magic. This is because she stands for justice, and doesn't care how she gets it. She believes that she will be judged when she dies, of how she lived her life. This is why justice is her goal. She doesn't lose her cool in battle and seldom gets angry. She is keen to make friends, and longs for companions, so summons demon specially for that purpose.
Biography: Meera was born in the city of Zhor, and grew up as an only-child living with her parents. She grew up wanting to be a magician, so she could help people. her first thoughts were to follow a holy path and become a magical doctor for the City.She noviced for the church learning amateur healing spell. But when she was just 50 (Magikan years) she saw a young boy being mugged, she had tried to help him but had found her weak magic useless. He was mugged and murdered before her eyes and she was hopeless.
She because obsessed finding a way of helping people more efficiently after that, searching great libraries for knowledge. She found an inscription that read:
He who masters the art of daemons, will find salvation and true power, to use as he wishes.
After reading this, she knew that was what she craved for: Power. She also knew that she couldn't be sure her willpower was strong enough to wield so much might. But after thinking of the boy, she decided that better her, who had seen death, than others that would hand it out.
She lit candles, sacrificed her blood, and chanted the prayers, and with that, she was a daemonologist. The city soon found out about this and told her that they could not teach her, because they didn't wish to learn daemonology themselves, and that they were afraid that she would become power-crazy. But more bad new followed, because of the suspicions, she was told she could no-longer live in the city, for she could be a danger to her friends and family... And they rest of the city. They gave her some robes as a monument of her birthplace, but also the black gloves that she still wears, as a reminder of why she was banished. She left, but vowed to earn her right to return to Zhor.
On her travels Meera became lonely, not having her family to talk to. So she decided to summon the ultimate demon, big, powerful, protective and friendly. But this task was too difficult for her, and the Demon was misshaped,too big and powerful, but not protective and friendly. The demon, called Coll, turned on Meera, attacking her viciously with fire, and then fleeing, leaving her nearly dead.
That attack was good for Meera, because it let her know the boundaries of her power. While constructing Coll, Meera gave him a twisted memory, so he cannot remember things that sub-consciously he doesn't want to remember.
Her previous name was Meera Karavar, but she is know known by Meera Shadowvein, she changed her name so she can always remind herself that she is unique.
Meera found a book in a human Library containing knowledge of dark, shadow magic. The book was not unlike the book that had first taught her daemonology, however this one contained shadow magic, a close relative of daemology. Technically, Daemonology is a form of shadow magic. Meera hopes to continue finding these books as she travels on her quest to regain the favor of Khor.
