The Girl Name: Mia Edana Chevalier
Meaning: Mia: "Mine" ( Italian), "Bitter" (Danish/Swedish)
Edana: "Fiery" (Gaelic)
Chevalier: "Knight" (French)
Race: Human
Gender: Female
Birthday: September 22nd
Age: 17
Stage: Witchling
Position: Mononoke: Bobcat
Ability Concentration: Illusion-specialty in figment spells; strength goes figment, pattern, phantasm, shadow, glamer. Also strong in Enchantment, especially Compulsion, and Evocation.
Theme: Possibly illusions using dance, tribal spells/summons and some type of storm theme - rain/lightning
Height: 5'2"
Build: Fit and in shape, but still curvy
Hair: Long, slightly dark chocolate brown with bright blonde streaks (like basically stripes). Full blunt bangs that are straight across (although they can be a little piecey), pulled back into two low pigtails.
Eyes: Bright Green
Skin: Fair
Uniform: Knee-highs or thigh-highs instead of tight. Not many other preferences, although trying some kind of cream color would be interesting for the shirt and/or socks or whatever tickles your fancy.
Other: Large, cat-like ears with black tips and some spots and a small, short-ish tail with a few spots that ends in a chunk of black (need refs)
Personality: Mia is most often described as a sweetheart. Bright and energetic, Mia likes to befriend everyone she meets. Around new people, she'll be a little shy and quiet, observing them and weighing what they say and do before opening up. She tends to store information on people in her head, and is thinking of starting a written record of everyone she knows for fun. Mia is a very considerate girl, always willing to help anyone out, no matter if how well she does or doesn't know them. Her wit and intelligence endear her to those who know her better, as she loves to make people laugh, often affectionately at others expense. She even gets loud and a little brash when in a group.
What no one knows, though, is that Mia feels isolated. She often slips through the cracks in groups of people, everyone assuming she is out with someone else. This often ends up with her being alone at night or missing parties because everyone thought another person invited her. She has many friends, but she feels she doesn't mean as much to them, as they do to her. She just never seems to be able to get to the deepest level of a group. She always hides this, though, under a smile and her short temper.
Above all, Mia is mentally strong. She is physically tough, too, capable as a fighter, although she prefers magic. While she isn't the strongest, she can take whatever a person or life dishes out. She'll get back up every time she's hit, and if she can't, then she'll crawl. She's used to defending herself and others, and her she is fierce if threatened or angered.
Background: Mia is for all intents and purposes, a normal witching girl in Lilium Hallow. She grew up on the edges of the town of the Makai Academy. Her family was a happy, upper middle class one, with Mia being the only child of a shopkeeper (her mother) and a healer (her father). Her parents both had traces of magic as many do. Her mother had only a few wisps of it, enough to do small household related things. Her father also had stronger magic, mostly related to art and painting. While Mia could simply live at home and walk to the Academy, she lives there instead, as her parents agreed it was time for her to be independent, and that was the best way to do things. Her family supports her in all that she does, but they know that once she graduates, they might not see her for a very long time...
As a young child, Mia had a large group of friends who all played in the fields and forest around the town. When she was around seven or eight, it was discovered she was a mononoke. During a game of tag she suddenly transformed into a chocolate brown baby bobcat (bobkitten?). Her friends saw this and were either terrified or jealous, despite the existence of other mononoke. Despite her attempts to tag along and continue as if all was normal, she was rejected again and again by the children. Since mononoke were considered "prodigies" the children often accused her of getting special treatment in school and from other adults. While Mia could have escaped to the Royal Academy, she fought not to go until the technically "right" age in order to have a normal childhood. Friends her age, though, became few and far between.
Mia developed a tough outer shell and became rebellious and loud, launching verbal attacks against her bullies. She began to reject social norms and feminine things, resenting them because of what she'd gone through at the hands of regular children. She even gave up her beloved ballet for martial arts, gaining the confidence and skill to defend herself. She grew more and more insecure however, fighting internal battles with herself over her appearance, her personality, and what made people not like her.
As she grew up, she eventually made other friends, although she only had two or three close ones, and they were not a group. None of them would be attending Makai either. She slowly worked through her self-image issues and insecurities as a teenager, although the insecurity of being left out and ridiculed behind her back still plagues her. Mia has only recently shed that tough exterior and embraced herself as both girly and a tomboy. She is still somewhat unsure of herself and others, therefore, although she is dancing again, in all styles, which help her express her emotions. Mia had decided to try and let the past be the past and to get rid of her former resentment, and let her history instead make her kinder. That is how she will win. Mia enters Makai as a girl craving love and attention, not from her family, but from her peers.
Likes: Fashion, cute things, broken things, reading, music of all kinds, nighttime, rain, exercise, dancing, laying in the sun, napping in front of fires, cuddling-but she decides when and where, having her hair or ears played with
Dislikes: Following trends, when things she treasures change, being left out, having nothing to do, insects-especially wasps, having her tail pulled
Fears: Rejection, ridicule, growing old
Hobbies: Dancing, pottery, reading, writing, hairstyling, makeup
Favorite Food: Creme Brûlée cheesecake, milk, food with lots of flavor- especially salty, sweet or crunchy
Traits: Positive
Loyal- Once you are Mia's friend, she is your defender for life. She would give her life for yours even if you've only known her for a few hours. She treasures her friends and family and the memories they give her above all else, and will do anything to protect them.
Tenacious- Mia is tireless, especially when she has a project to work one. She will throw herself into it, stopping at nothing to complete it. She will work into early morning hours to complete something, and always finishes what she starts. She also will find any way possible to turn "no" into "yes" and "not possible" to "possible.
Creative/Imaginative- Fairly self-explanatory. Mia a dreamer, often staring out the window in class, when she can get away with it. She thinks up various scenarios of herself and others, new worlds, things she can do with magic, etc. along with choreographing dance routines in her head. It allows her to have a fairly open and optimistic mind, which keeps her going through the tough times.
Gracious- Mia is grateful for the people and things around her. She tries not to take her life and friends for granted. The smallest kindnesses towards Mia are given great thanks. Mia appreciates most actions more than people will ever know.
Positive/Negative
Analytical/Observant- Mia has the tendency to remember things and places. She can often read situations or people well and predict how something will go. Unfortunately, this also leads her to replay conversations and situations over and over in her head, creating anxiety and worry that she said or did the wrong thing, or was misinterpreted.
Empathetic- Mia is somewhat of an empath, easily feeling other's emotions. She is compassionate, therefore, and often prone to give someone the benefit of the doubt. She sees people as a greyscale, but it can lead her to not always trust her instinct about a person, and she is often drained when dealing with the negative emotions of a person.
Negative
Possessive- Mia doesn't mind change, but it does make her uneasy. When this comes to her friends and lifestyle, this evolves into full blown possessiveness. She doesn't like new people suddenly inserting themselves into a group until she's approved them. She doesn't take kindly to friends drifting away, either, unless the split is mutual.
Internal- Despite expressing anger and happiness easily enough, Mia never expresses deep insecurity, depression, sadness, etc. People may think she does, but on closer inspection, those are fleeting, shallow reflection of how she really feels. She's afraid of rejection and ridicule, so her most strongly felt emotions are held inside herself, felt fully only when she's alone.
Short Temper- Mia can be a bit explosive when provoked. She is annoyed fairly easily, but she often stores up hurt and anger until it unleashes itself on whoever provokes her closest to her boiling point. Her anger generally comes quickly and then is gone, although it may be preceded or followed by very vicious, snide remarks. This is also a cover for her vulnerability.
Melancholy- Mia will hit funks, sometimes every few weeks, sometimes every few days. They are always when she is alone, and she never expresses them. Instead, she is just quiet on those days. Inside, she is inexplicably sad to the depths of her soul, and she cannot explain why. She prefers it if it rains on these days, so she can curl up with a blanket by the window and just think. She'll be lost in thought more often on these days.

The Future Witchling-> Witch -> Ars Lilium -> Cerberus Knight?
This will not be an easy journey for Mia. Mia has often wavered between what she wants to do after she becomes a witch. She wanted to be an Ars Lilium when she was young, but when she went through her rebellious stage, she thought of becoming a reaper. Now, as a witchling, she is torn. After she graduates from Makai, she will decide to work towards being an Ars Lilium. She will realize their discipline is too strict for her, though, and she'll think of them as puppets of the royals. She will therefore move to Moonfall and pursue becoming a Reaper. She will form friendships and relationships with Reapers and Black Hearts, and begin to try to join their ranks. She will almost succeed and be on the verge of becoming a reaper when a major, shattering event will occur in her life, involving someone she loves dearly.
(Tentatively) The boy/man (a Reaper/BH, ideally, or just a witch) she loves will be in some dire danger unless Mia makes him reject/hate her. She will try, but she will watch how much both of them are hurt by it. She will give up trying to save him through that in order for them to be able to have a short time together. Whatever danger he was in shall come to pass, therefore, and while he won't die, he will afterwards resent her for it, saying she's bad luck and the worst thing that ever happened to him. Mia, thinking she is selfish for getting the one thing she's always wanted, will make what she sees as a belated sacrifice. She will, as a consequence, go back to the Ars Lilium and train avidly, working for a virtuous cause to atone for what she caused. It will be an act of love/rememberence, an honorable sacrifice on her part. Her melancholia will become much more prominent in her personality, and she will be a sort of dark Ars Lilium in personality and history. As of right now, she will advance to Cerberus Knight.
As a note, later on, Mia will come to recognize that she could never have been a Reaper/BH because she can't hate majin. Witch Eaters are awful and need to be stopped, but not wiped out at the expense of majin. I'd also like this to become a conflict with a Reaper/BH she knew from training or was previously friends with.

The Abilities, Magic, And Theme Key
Nothing Mia hasn't learned this yet. Or she's awful at it.
~ Mia can perform these only poorly. The spells here are weak.
~~ Mia is okay at these, but their quality is unpredictable. They're still a bit weak.
~~~ Mia is average at these. They're use and strength is adequate, or at least stable.

Abjuration: ~
This school is focused on protective spells, as well as spells which cancel or interfere with other spells, magical effects or supernatural abilities, such as Break Enchantment, Dimensional Anchor, Dispel Magic or Remove Curse. Wizards who specialize in this school are known as Abjurers.
Conjuration: ~
This school, known as Conjuration in 3rd and 3.5 editions and Conjuration / Summoning in earlier editions, is focused on instantaneous transportation, conjuring manifestations of creatures, energy or objects and object creation. In 3rd and 3.5 editions, healing spells are also part of the conjuration school, however of the three core arcane classes, these spells are generally restricted to bards. In 3rd and 3.5 editions, Conjuration is divided into five subschools: calling (spells which physically transporting extraplanar creatures to the caster, as well as granting them the ability to return to where they were called from), creation, healing, summoning (teleporting objects to the caster's location and / or causing creatures to physically manifest at the caster's location) and teleportation (instantly transporting creatures and / or objects).

In 2nd edition, Divination was divided into two schools: Lesser Divination (all Divination spells up to 4th level) and Greater Divination (all Divination spells of 5th level or higher) in order to prevent specialist wizards from losing access to certain utility spells such as Detect Magic, Identify and Read Magic, serving a similar purpose to 3rd edition's Universal Magic. In 3rd and 3.5 editions, Divination has one subschool: scrying, spells within the scrying subschool create invisible magical sensors which provide the caster with information, these sensors can be detected and dispelled. Wizards who specialize in this school are known as Diviners.

In 3rd and 3.5 editions, all Enchantment spells are mind-affecting and Enchantment is divided into two subschools: compulsion and charm. Charm spells, such as Charm Person or Symbol of Persuasion, affect the targets' attitudes, usually making them act more favorably toward the caster. Compulsion spells such as Confusion, Dominate Monster, Feeblemind, Sleep, Suggestion or Zone of Truth, can force the targets' to act in a certain way or avoid certain actions, affect the targets' emotions or affect the targets' minds in other ways.

This school is known as Illusion / Phantasm prior to 3rd edition and Illusion in 3rd and 3.5 editions. In 3rd and 3.5 editions, it is divided into five subschools: figment, glamer, pattern, phantasm and shadow. Figment spells create artificial sensations with no physical substance. Glamer spells alter the target's sensory properties, and can cause invisibility. Pattern spells create insubstantial images which affect the minds of the viewers, pattern spells can inflict harm. Phantasm spells create hallucinations which can be harmful. Shadow spells use magical shadows to create things with physical substance. Wizards who specialize in this school are known as Illusionists.
Necromancy:
Necromancy spells involve death, undeath and the manipulation of life energy. Prior to 3rd edition, healing spells are in the Necromancy school, however these spells are generally restricted to clerics and / or druids. Necromancy can usually be divided into three or four categories: spells that help or create the Undead, like Animate Dead; spells that hurt the Undead, like Disrupt Undead; spells that hurt other people, like Enervation or Vampiric Touch; and spells that manipulate life in order to heal, such as Regenerate or Cure Serious Wounds, which were shifted to the Conjuration school in 3rd edition.
