Name: Arwen
Age: 7-10
Bond Day: 08-05-07
Gender: Female
Height: 4"
Weight: 72 lbs
Hair Colour: Black with deep garnet highlights.
Skin Colour: Flawless porcelain.
Eye Colour: Vivid crimson red.
Additions:
Occupation: Student
Position: None
Likes: Poetry (both writing and reading), her studies in general, solitude, hot water with lemon and a little bit of honey.
Dislikes: Adventure of any sort, going outside of her comfort zone, the loud and irreverent.
Personality: Arwen is the type of girl who can find out anything about life from a book and apply it as needed. She learns quickly and has a remarkable memory for facts, such as names, dates and important information. Brilliant, extremely sharp and hungry to learn, the girl has very little in the way of social skills; she could tell you all about a place from its history to its culture, but when it comes to interacting she's completely at a loss. Her inept manners of dealing with others has made her somewhat agoraphobic, preferring to remain at home or within familiar grounds. Despite the inability to properly blend into a crowd, Arwen is quite friendly, a sweet and well meaning girl who is a bit scatterbrained. Building a friendship with the waifish girl can be a challenge, as she's extremely passionate about her learning and studies, and any who do not share her desire are often lost in the pages.

The young girl is deeply immersed in her studies and books; even though the words on the pages can express great emotion and depth, she is hopeless at handling it in life. Arwen would do little more than brush off the most tear-filled and earnest outburst, simply because it's not something that has a definite answer or resolution. She finds emotions to be volatile, and it hinders her ability to truly know how to act in the face of such strange and malleable behavior. The girl herself rarely shows any sort of emotion aside from her perpetual happiness when she does interact, unless an unfortunate soul should start to discuss a pursuit of interest. Getting her started down the path of something she adores can result in many hours of happy chattering that most people would likely not understand nor care about. She's the type to give you an indepth answer to a simple question, enough that you'd probably walk away knowing more about the subject than you ever cared to. If, on the off chance, she does not know the answer to your question, she will immerse herself in books and references to find the answer and give you quite an elaborate tale when she's satisfied her own curiosity for the information.

All her essentrics and lack of emotional comprehension in the flesh does not mean she is emotionally dead in her heart. Arwen has a passion for poetry and romance novels, and is quite the little poet herself (although she'd never readily admit it). She composes her own poetry, short stories and the occassional song, storing them in a secret diary that she keeps as hidden as possible. The romantic part of her seems to be quite a far cry from her logical and fact-driven nature; as such, she keeps it as buried as the diary that contains her sweetly composed words, almost as though she were in denial of that capacity.

Goals: Currently Arwen's goal is to become just like professora Bellona. Beautiful and smart and self-posessed.

User ImageAlignments: Melancholy
Melancholy is the Essence of the Mind, and is Housed in the Black District.

Colours: Black, indigo, silver, purple, dark blues, garnet red, cold metallic colours.

Attributes: Good with Artistic and Magical endeavours, philosophical, deep thinkers, work well by themselves, inventive, conceptual thinkers. The Planners, but not the doers.

Personality Traits: Airy personality, solitary, self-oriented, distant from worries of the body (such as sleep or hunger)

Digamma Ouroboros: The Digamma Ouroboros is the symbol of the Melancholy humor, and is depicted as two serpents twisted in an infinity sign devouring each other's tails. The Digamma stands for eternal balance, eternal struggle, the battle between mind and body, self and others. Neither of the serpents of the Digamma will ever fully devour the other, as both are equal in strength and size, and truly without each other to feed from, the snakes in the Digamma would perish. The Digamma symbolizes not only the struggle of opposites, but also the dependance on balance for both to survive and flourish. All Melancholy Aligned Empyreans will wear their Digamma Ouroboros as a sign of pride somewhere on their person at all times, whether it be emblazoned on a possession they are never without, emroidered or fastened onto clothing, tattooed into flesh or dyed into fur, it must always be worn and visible.

Often Melancholy are best suited to the Academic or Journeyman Orientations, as this allows them to focus on magic or duelling, which they excel at.

Academic: Academics are thin and waifish - sometimes bordering on underweight or skinny. They have slow metabolisms and don't need to eat very much. They tire easily when they exert themselves and have a very hard time putting on muscle. Because of their light size they can be quite quick if they train to be. Academics are brilliant in the mind, and this enables them to excell at magics and learned information. They have great memories and great analytical skills, but have a difficult time understand things from a perspective of feeling. They often consider emotions to be excessive, irrational or baffling, and prefer to deal in terms of fact or fiction, not that watery in-between substance of emotions.

Key: Black text is for standard classes; Dark Blue text is for tutored classes.

º Philosophy
. . . . .Itself: A subject of aloof and deep thinking. While some of it pique's my curiosity, the amount of questions and lack of substantial answers doesn't do much to hold my interest.
. . . . .Impression: The class was remarkably held for how little interest the subject itself initally presented. Professor Eleuthero was as fascinating as the words he shared, weaving the ideas in such a way to keep me enthralled and intruiged. The subject itself, however interesting, is not something I feel I could delve into.
. . . . .Interest Is: Deities, karma, reincarnation/metatron's influence on it all. The general sway of strength the deities display, and their presence of ungodly mind to be swayed by the desires of many. The God and the Faithful seem to have a constant albeit unconscious struggle for who needs whom more.


º Botany
. . . . .Itself: Sadly overshadowed by the immense distaste by being Outside. I remember precious little of the class itself, as I found myself at odds with my mind to keep from fleeing in terror.
. . . . .Impression: To say it left a positive impression would be gravely mistaken. Cutting the limbs of living, breathing, humanoid-esque creatures does not strike me with a positive fancy.
. . . . .Interest Is: Perhaps surprisingly, I find interest in what we learned in class. The combining of mere samples to create a creature of purpose and existance is fascinating. I lament my inability to focus during this session.


º History
. . . . .Itself: It feels something like drabble in the back of my mind. The Professora was passionate to be sure, but the subject itself of doom and destruction is one that leaves me bone weary and disinterested. Our Professora made up for the lack of intruiging subject.
. . . . .Impression: Death; gloom; lessons learned but not remembered. Such is the history that toiled us to our current point in time; I am not struck by any certain path or skill to follow, and am unaffected by the empowering speech.
. . . . .Interest Is: Minimal. Although I could not receive this information with as much gusto as the Professora, a book could have taught me much of the same thing.


º Animal Care
. . . . .Itself: -not started-
. . . . .Impression: -not started-
. . . . .Interest Is: -not started-


º Science
. . . . .Itself: A strange but fascinating coil. More of a history lesson than the fated class I sat through; demonstration and passion won my interest.
. . . . .Impression: One not soon forgotten. Professor Abrid is a frank and forward man, and I cannot fathom one more suited for teaching. For all that we have suffered, I believe we will only learn from the truth.
. . . . .Interest Is: Limited. There is a great fear associated with what I learned here, but I am not one to be conquered by it. As with Botany, there was much I could not grasp by the dire straight of the subject, but I will study more on my own.


º Music
. . . . .Itself: -in progress-
. . . . .Impression: -in progress-
. . . . .Interest Is: -in progress-


º Magic Theory
. . . . .Itself: -not started-

A fiery and strong willed individual, chatty and kind. A little daunting to the likes of me.

Argentum Phlegmatic Academic
A sweet individual of knowledge and warmth. I would like to meet him and his brother again.

Arron Unknown
Arwen has not met this Empyrean

Astaroth Melancholy Academic
He seems quite easily inconvenienced, if I had to peg his personality on first meeting. However, Astaroth is polite enough, and has a love for books, and I cannot begrudge him his short temperment with others.

Aureus Phlegmatic Journeyman
As his brother, he is kind and receptive, but perhaps a little more outspoken than his twin. I would like to meet him and his brother again.

Aysel Melancholy Academic
- in progress -

Belwen Phlegmatic Journeyman
Arwen has not met this Empyrean

Biwa Phlegmatic Academic
A very timid but pretty girl. She's sweet, and seems eager to take the time to talk. We've somehow found ourselves with a class-date to approach Professora Nehna for musical tutoring. Somehow, I think I like her.

Danna Choleric Journeyman
An encouraging bundle of sweetness. Danna stands for what needs to be done while using her inherent kindness to be a support to others. We survived Botany together, I believe that counts for something.

Grave Melancholy Academic
Grave was the first Empyrean I ever met. He's a very sweet boy, and a Melancholy Academic, just as I am. Grave has good manners, a helpful demeanor and a wonderful smile. He is the first soul I would call a friend, and I hope time will only prove to strengthen that opinion.

Second Meeting He looks amazing! He is as sweet and mindful as ever, perhaps more so; our passions have not wavered with his growth, perhaps even strengthening in his position in the library. I've missed him so!

Lucis Melancholy Journeyman
I adore this Empyrean. He is a gentle soul despite his appearance, a little more forward than I am used to but not unwelcome. Kind, curious and wistful in his passion, he is a joy to speak with.

The bedraggled and somewhat ratty quill is Arwen's favorite, made obvious by how often it seems to be used;
the nicer quill is the one she uses in class.

Arwen's personal journal that she keeps deeply hidden.

A note can be found by the Mandolin. It reads:

Nehna

Thank you, Arwen for attending my concert.
I could feel you listening, and appreciating, and understanding the music and the message I was trying to portray. I feel that someday you'll be a great musician yourself. Here's a little gift to help you along.
If you're unsure of how to use it, or want to practise, please come and ask me either in my office in the Amphitheater or in the Teacher's Lounge!

A Holiday gift from ... ? No matter, it will be put to good use.

Hmm? I suppose this was from the Halloween House...
...oh dear, I seem to have gotten wrapped up in the research...
