Introduction
Merri is a bit of a pain in the a** and it takes someone of a similar personality to really meld with her. The Imp really does not like instructional learning and would often prefer to be left to her own devices. Partners in crime sounds like a perfect relationship. She isn't looking to go onto University and desperately wants out into the real world.
Body.
♠ Hair. Dark brunette
♠ Eyes. Brown
♠ Height. 5"4'.
♠ Build. The chubbier side
♠ Orientation. Homosexual (Feminine Nightmares).
Schooling.
♠ Year. Senior.
♠ Studying. Engineering.
Positive Traits.
♠ Daring. Merri is a bit fearless, and often is the first volunteered for unpleasant situations. No mess is too gross for her, and no situation is too dangerous. As a Freshling, this often got her into a lot of trouble, and as a Junior, she was dared to do many a thing.
♠ Determined. Merri is a bit fearless, and often is the first volunteered for unpleasant situations. No mess is too gross for her, and no situation is too dangerous. As a Freshling, this often got her into a lot of trouble, and as a Junior, she was dared to do many a thing.
♠ Handy. Maribell is extremely good with her hands and tinkers with nearly everything in her possession. It doesn't always go well, and some times her ventures of using magic to aid end with soot, but she enjoys the process of figuring out how things work. In general, she has an interest in anything that will get claws dirty. She'd take a Craftsmanship elective four times over if you really let her.
♠ Crafting. Merri isn't the best with her magic, but what she is capable of using, she puts towards making things. A trip into her room will show many little trinkets from various spare parts, and to any adult, it's clear that Merri is the token trades Imp. While she has interest in her Enchanting classes and enjoys them, she's not the most solid of magic users quite yet.
Negative Traits.
♠ Short Tempered. Merri's temper boils to irritation quite often, especially when situations aren't going her way. She usually does not get verbally mean, but when annoyed, she can get a bit aggressive and persistent.
♠ Loud. Quieter Nightmares may be intimidated by Merri's volume, and accompanied lack of filter. Some value her for her honesty, others just find her obnoxious, especially as she's the type that doesn't mind interrupting class.
♠ Academic Disinterest. Merri has no intention to go onto University. Sitting in a classroom all day long is boring, and subjects like Chemistry largely make her yawn unless she gets to experiment as electrons mean little to her. Literature is probably the worst, and you'll never catch her reading for enjoyment. She's been playing slightly ignorant as to how this'll come around to bite her in the butt eventually.
♠ Technology Disinterest. To an extent. Merri loves her tinkering, but hates some of the conveniences crystal technologies bring. Magic-run devices are not as fun to her mechanically run things, such as trains and tools with gears that move.
Enjoys.
Maribelle spends most of her time tinkering, or getting into trouble. While she has a moral compass and usually ends her shenanigans when it's at the expense of another Nightmare, she's usually up to something. She tends to spend a lot of her time with those who are younger than her, saying something about her maturity levels. Those who are familiar with her and idea of a good time are far from surprised to hear that she does not desire to attend University. She would probably run away to live with a band of children if you really let her.
Otherwise, Merri is very dedicated to her familiars and shows more kindness to animals than other Nightmares. While she usually loud and upfront with all Nightmares she meets, it's not rare for her to grow quiet and gentle with familiars. Sometimes, she can be seen approaching a Nightmare just to say hello to their little friends. Some days Merri wishes she could go into Familiar-oriented medicine and work with them, but she doesn't believe she'd be good at (or have much interest) the more science based aspects such as anatomy and the body. In addition, most of her magic is related to tinkering and she isn't confident she could expand her abilities.
The brunette loves the outdoors and she's pushed the Academy's boundaries more than once trying to explore on her own. She hates being restricted to the school's lot and is relieved she is finally a Senior with more leeway on leaving. When the weather permits, the windows to her dorm are consistently open, and it's not rare to see her approach untamed wildlife with mixed success. Once she graduates the Academy, she wants to press her luck by moving to the outskirts of a city.
World View.
Finding her house had been a bit of a no brainer, having no interest in the "dull" subjects such as literature or the idea of being subjected to really old, sort of dry history. Sometimes Maribell gets frustrated with the other Enoch students who are fascinated with big words and being brainy show offs or who talk all the time about how the teeny tiny atoms work, as they often pester her over her disinterest. She's much more into "this cog turns that cog" and not so much what composes the elements she's working with. Part of her disinterest may be her immaturity, but in order to really find the career she wants post school, she'll most likely have to invest some time in learning the best angles for construction instead of letting everything in her life be trial and error. Compared to the other students, Merri ranks low in her class, most simply due to her disinterest of the classroom setting and her generally attitude towards not attending the University (and thus not believing she needs the current-classroom skills to make it in life).
Merri does not show a lot of distress over being Cache born, mostly due to the fact many at the Academy are in the same situation. Somedays she does feel lonely, and many a night she had dreamed of having a large tight-knit family, but has reasoned with herself that once she leaves the Academy she will start a family of her own. The brunette is very fond of kids and as she waits for her own, she is close to those she associates with at the Academy. It is not rare to find her being very cuddly and familiar with the younger students, and she often has naps with the Freshlings she visits in the playroom. All in all, Merri is very focused on the future which has helped her get over her current lack of family and the fact she's "caged" to the Academy.
Sometimes Merri's temper makes her very irritated with Nightmares who are too caught up with being true to their race. The Imp doesn't like hanging around in the past (especially since History is a bore to her), and sometimes sees a Nightmare's attempt to be authentic to their culture as a sort of "look at me" thing. Knowing many at the Academy are cache born, she strongly believes everyone should continue being themselves instead of forcing ancient customs. However, she has no issues with "natural" instincts and talents, and is able to acknowledge that race does play into the differences between her and her classmates.
After she graduates, Merri wants to live outside the city (any will do) in order to be closer to nature and left to her own devices. She's aware some aspire to rejoin the existing populations, but she would much rather start her own life and business to support herself until she can find the perfect partner. She is unsure if she wants a job dealing with familiars, or related to craftsman ship quite yet, but she hopes the outskirts will be in need of services. For the most part, she's going in blindly and will face a bit of a shock when the real world catches up to her.

Room
Merri is a low key hoarder and keeps a lot of various parts and pieces around her desk. She's afraid to toss something in case she has a use for it in her tinkering later, but she is very good at containing her mess to a single pile. It's surprising how little of her stuff strays outside of her boundaries, though the path from her bed to her dresser sometimes to fair game to her messes. A lot of things fail to bother Maribelle so it may be a while before she tosses legit trash or does her laundry.
