Name: Mercedes Kingston
Nicknames: Mercy,
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Faction: Reaper
Race: Sorceress
Natural Ability:
Enchanting: Sorcerers/sorceress's are awful at casting spells. Instead, they excel at being able to put spells into objects. These objects can cast the spell for them: ie, a Sorceress can enchant a fireball spell into a stick. Providing that the stick doesn't catch on fire, the Sorceress now has a wand that can shoot fireballs... Until the spell runs out, that is. In Mercy's case, she is able to use an animating spell on her cardboard/duct tape dolls and make them come to life and attack others, on a good day. She has two spell dolls she uses Male and Female, named after their genders, respectfully.
Personality:
She's a man-eater: Mercy is a bit, well, cynical about the male race. She thinks they are horrible, and not just because her mother was left by her father(something involving the boogeymen or other, really Mercy isn't too sure). This hate stemmed from her very being. She much prefers her own gender, and will treat them much kinder than she would a male thing. However, "it" things she has no problem with. If she were ever to work closely with a male student in the classroom, well lets just say she'd focus more on hurting him than she would trying to even pass the assignment they were put together with. This usually backfires due to her spellwork and she gets more cuts and bruises. Outside of the classroom, she avoids males enitrely. If a ten foot pole can touch them, then they are too close for comfort.
I've put a spell on...: Mercy can sometimes have big problems with her spells. She's not clumsy with her spells, she's just not very good at it. Several spells she's done have set both the stray cat on fire and turning an old tree into a dead flower. She had meant to help the cat and the tree become healthier. This is why all familiars tend to stay away from here, lest they end up growing fur where there should be none. In fact, the only thing she can really successfully put a spell on is her two dolls, and even they have had their scars. Both have been patched up with excess cardboard and various bits of rainbow duct tape that Mercy has found in the human world. She had been given the two once previously paper dolls when she was younger.
Every day I'm shuffling: The only odd thing about Mercy is her feet, they seem to be two sizes too small for her lanky body. She often finds herself tripping over even the smallest of branches and falling, thus she uses even more duct tape to cover the wounds. She figures, if it can work for Male and Female, it can work for her. Yes, she holds duct tape in the highest regards.She has tried putting on bigger shoes and stuffing them with cardboard, but they hurt so much, so she just deals with the tripping and falling as it happens. Better be discomforted for a few minutes instead of all the time.
Yes, that dress does make you look fat: Mercy can also be quite honest, so one should never ask her anything. If she were to talk to anyone she would say what was on her mind, exactly when it was on her mind. Her words are much kinder to females, or course, than they are to males. She has never once thought that the honesty she has is rather wrong, so she is always put off when another student just leaves the conversation. She shrugs it off and continues on her way.
Duct Tape, thy silver throne: Mercy loves duct tape, not only can it come in several different colors, but it covers almost anything she wants it to. She uses it to constantly "repair" her two dolls, which she fondly calls Male and Female. Male gets hurt more often than female and is in much worse a state. She is convinced that duct tape can repair anything, as it has always worked in repairing her various books and furniture. She had been introduced to duct tape when her first doll Female had been ripped. Her mother only had that laying around the house, so that was what was used.
Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy? Mercy has always dreamed of not screwing up her spells, and one day she is sure this will happen. One day she will be able to control her fear and not be considered a clumsy sorceress but a very good sorceress, human world domination may also be involved, she is not for certain.
FEAR Ability: Cardboard Coverup (Offensive: The Mind): Using one of her dolls, Mercy can hopefully make it blind her opponent so it does not know where/when/what Mercy is doing. She says hopefully, because sometimes the cardboard doll loses an arm before getting to the opponents face and can only cover one eye.
Physical Description:Mercy stands average height to a ghoul her age, so around 5'5''. She has a small ghoulish face framed by long bangs, the rest of her hair being in two low ponytails. She wears a simple black choker and a black dress with a few white stripes on it. Her dress is also in verious stages of repair, with rainbow duct tape and cardboard. In fact the bow on the back of her dress is almost entirely made of cardboard. She always seems to get injured, so she covers the cuts with rainbow duct tape. She has a utility belt, with rainbow duct tape and scissors in its pockets, that its held up, along with part of her dress, by rainbow suspenders. She also wears low heel victorian boots. Accompanied with her is Male and Female, her two cardboard dolls. Female has purple cut out hair and a pink cut out dress. Male has a green cut out hoodie. Both have rainbow duct tape on them somewhere.
Eye Colour: Green
Hair Colour/Style: Long curly bubblegum pink hair. She usually has it tied with pink ribbon into two very long pigtails underneath her hat.
Skin Colour: Very pale
Clothing Style/Colours: She wears a black and white slightly off the shoulder dress. The front of the dress lies just above her knees but the back of the dress goes to her ankles.She also wears a pair of rainbow suspendors to hold up the front of her dress to that knee height. She wears low top heels with a victorian style covering that is white. Her dress has been in a state of repair and there are portions of her dress that are covered in rainbow duct tape and bits of cardboard.
Extra: She has abysmally tiny feet for such a tall girl. They look like children's feet compared to her "womanly" figure. She may also have several cuts on her legs and arms, all covered by duct tape. And we musn't forget her two cardboard/duct tape dolls.
