Image Songs:
  • Fairy Fore - Vivid

Distinguishing Features:
  • Bat Ears: They are pretty large, they are pointed, and they have piercings. His bat-like ears mark him as a member of his species. He can hear very well with them and help him stay fairly alert. It is hard to sneak up behind Myrddin thanks to his large ears. Though they are always upright and look perky they do droop in the rare instances when he's sad the ears are usually a good indicator for his moods.
  • Bat Wings: His wings may appear useless at first glance but he can get a couple of inches of height out of them if he feels the need to do so to get over larger gaps. Myrddin would have to be truly determined to get to his destination before he'd ever consider trying flight. This also shows that he's a lot lighter than he looks...

Odd Tidbits:
  • Sweet Tooth: He loves his sweets. Pastries, candies, or anything doused in honey are sure to make him practically squeal in delight. He loves his fruits as well since they usually tend to be sweet. Mostly? His favorite sweet flavor is honey. If you want to bribe him then sweets are usually the ultimate way to do so since he doesn't seem to care too much about monetary things.
  • Blind as a bat? Pssh...: Myrddin has excellent eyesight due to the fact that his genetic lineage of Optera is based upon that of a fruit bat which usually has fairly good vision. The eyesight helps him pull off some rather impressive distance shots. Among his family, however, there is the occasional blindness due to aging but he isn't worried about that hitting him any time soon or even ever.
  • N...Nice Doggie...: When he was young Myrddin feared nothing until a neighborhood dog attacked him and severely hurt his right arm. Though his arm healed and he doesn't suffer from complications due to the past injury he finds that he is very scared of large dogs and the sight of blood is enough to make him send him into a dead faint.

Four-to-Five Word Personality:
Devoted, Happy, Loving, Prankster, Persistent

Personality:
He's a happy and cheerful individual, not much seems to get him down or hold him back, but he's not happy to the point of practically spazzing out or bubbling over he's just genuinely and (usually) calmly happy. He treats everyone as if he'd known them forever and he trusts others until they prove themselves untrustworthy. He gives everyone at least one chance to prove themselves before he decides the friendship had run it's course and he needs to take his friendship elsewhere, it would take quite a bit to earn is trust and respect once again after the first betrayal.

Myrddin is a very loving and nurturing sort of individual he honestly roots for his friends and family and earnestly tries to get them everything he can to help them succeed in their endeavors. Even strangers get the benefit of his nurturing behavior. He never gives up on anything he tries to do he just keeps trying until he succeeds or someone drags him away and somehow gets it through his head that it can't be done and even when he fails he doesn't stay down about it for long before he bounces back and tries something else proving his resilience in the face of failure.

He's a bit of a prankster and likes to play jokes on others but he generally doesn't do so until he knows the person better - Myrddin never plays a hurtful prank (or tries not to) on another person. Despite his happy fun loving side he can be serious and the only time anyone should worry about his mood is the rare chance that he stops smiling all together and looks uncharacteristically serious it generally means his temper is starting to boil over and he's about to explode on someone.

He's very devoted to his friends and family and will take a hit for them or even fight for them if it was called for. Myrddin is usually considered a good person to have around when things get a bit rough.

Fears: Blood, Large Dogs
Issues: The sight and texture of some meat makes him a bit queasy, the most he'll take is ham on his pizza and even that he picks off on occasion if he doesn't have the stomach for it.
Aspirations: To be recognized for his archery skills, to have a family of his own.
Short-term Goals: To be a good parent!

History: Myrddin's past is uneventful for the most part. There were no deep dark hidden secrets, no mystical power that shan't be named, and certainly no great evil curse looming over the head of his kin. If you want a dramatic story it would probably be best to look at the creation of his race but since he is amongst the sixth generation of his people it's mostly just stories that the crazy elders talk about to scare the little ones. Myr's family is peaceful and kind bunch with no abuse evident and only the occasional squabble or two because no one is completely perfect. The most traumatic thing that he could probably speak of was when one of his older siblings antagonized a large dog and he got the brunt of the dog's anger because his older brothers and sisters ran off in terror leaving his father who happened to be nearby to rush in and intervene before things got too badly. It is an event he doesn't care to remember or think about.

He has a mother, a father, two brothers and three sisters all of them older than him. Myrddin is considered the 'baby' of the family. The family is close knit but they live separately from each other and only join together during family reunions, holidays, or birthdays.
