It's hard to judge her height since she's always on her carpet, but Shanta is around 5'3. Her legs are basically twigs (since they never get exercise) and break easily, but her arms are pretty nicely muscled. Sometimes she has wind burn.

Shanta was born without the use of her legs. Born and raised in a rather liberal elf community, Shanta's world was made up of the four walls of her bedroom for nine long years. She was often visited by village people who brought stories of the world outside as well as teaching her Elven. As the years went by, she grew increasingly restless and irritable, to the point that she sent people out of her room as soon as they came in. Recognizing her insatiable desire to see the outside world, Shanta's parents surprised her with a magic carpet on her ninth birthday.
After several months of practice, Shanta mastered flying the carpet and often went on long rides by herself, exploring the world from the view of a bird. Years later, while exploring the woods, Shanta found her letter resting in the tallest branches of the tallest tree. Her parents agreed to let her go, on the condition that she returned an enchanter to bring money to the elf village. Shanta agreed, but once second year signups came around, she applied for the mystic course. She hasn't heard from her parents since.

Quinn's parents were what some call 'hippies'. They were always on the road, living in their caravan. So once Quinn's mother got close to having her, it was hard for them to settle down, but they ended up moving in with her mothers parents and living in a small cottage in the forest. Her parents still went around and traveled, she stayed back and helped her grandma tend the garden and her grandpa collect things from the forest. When she turned 9 her parents decided it was okay for her to join them on their travels. When Quinn turned 13 they ended up going back home when her mother fell greatly ill. She died a year later. Her father fell out of sorts with the world and secluded himself to his room most of the time. But when Quinn got a letter from the academy, he seemed to lightened up. So Quinn is determined to make her dad proud, and smile like he used to.

Naomi was born into a well-off family. Her dad was the CEO of some big-time company, and her mother was a doctor at a magick hospital. She spent most of her academic years in private schools, pressured by her parents to get good grades. It wasn't until she was 14 that she exhibited magical abilities, when some kid threw a rock at her and it froze in midair.
Upon seeing her magic potential, her parents immediately changed course and took her out of all extracurricular activities halfway through eighth grade. Instead, directly after school her mother coached her to help get her magic abilities under control. During that summer, a letter arrived from the Academy. Naomi's parents prepared Naomi as well as they could and sent her off, telling her to choose a lucrative path.

Solara has long red hair that reaches her hips but tends to keep it in a messy bun or in a side braid if it's not down. Under her pale eye-lids, she has tangerine irises [which she says are contacts when humans ask her about them.] Standing tall, she is about five foot six inches with an pear shaped but athletic frame from her years of hunting. If she's not out in the human world, she's wearing very loose clothes, such as dresses, or long tunics from her elven family.

In the calm night of the twenty second day of March, there was a child born. Solara was born to a fairly average elven family, raised among the snow elves/elves who had lived in colder regions. She lived and hunted among them, learning their language piece by piece. Much of her time was taken up by studying and practice, as she wished to help her village and her race. What else was there to do really? Solara was raised as a forest-elf, not an urban elf.. But she did keep in contact with an elf she had befriended, who had strayed and become an urban elf. The outside world always interested her but she knew better than to run away. The forest was her home, no matter how cold and no matter how harsh. They had their methods to survive. Her time ticked by as she continued to learn, hunt and live with her brothers and sisters. Life was pleasant.
The letters slowly came, one by one. First it was the eldest brother, then the eldest sister. The letters came for each of the Aeratak children until finally... Solaras came. She had been so excited when it came, she was practically bouncing off the walls of their little home in the trees. After ignoring her mothers warning, and ending up with a bruise on her arm, Solara began packing. She and her mother made tunics and dresses that would better suit the new environment in which she would be living. Her siblings gave her advice and wished her luck as she began her journey to the Academy of Merlin... With a little help from her urban-elf friend, who made sure she had some things that would help her fit into the real world. At the Academy, she begins her first year.

Aerykah has always been described as, affectionately, 'different' due to her outward appearance, and her lack of caring about it.She's the eldest of four girls, but the only one blessed with magick ability. One day, about four or five years ago, Aerykah was locking one of her little sisters in the closet for stealing her wallet, and was so ticked off that the door stayed shut. For hours. And her parents, or her sisters couldn't open it. Aerykah was immediately grounded, as her parents tried to figure out what happened. Looking at the Sampson family history, it was learned that Aerkyah's grandmother on her mother's side was a magick who attended the Academy in her youth.
After that, it was only a matter of time before her letter came. Aerkyah opted to take the opportunity to learn more about her heritage, and fell in love with the magick society.

Human on his mothers side, Averill's parents split when he was young, and he grew up inside a Dwarven city. He was a little slower than the other 8 year olds when it came to banging out horseshoes on the anvil, but personally he didn't mind, seeing as he could pat them all on the head. By the time his teenage years rolled around, it was fairly obvious Averill didn't quite fit in- he began hitting his head on ceilings, and noticing how his facial hair was just not as impressive as the other guys. Lets not get this tangled here- he wasn't an outcast, nor was he particularly popular for his differences.
Dwarf society is very tolerant, however, its ladies are very picky. If a dwarf lady has a more impressive mustache than their date, everyone can tell its not going to work out. For Averill, this was extremely annoying. There was no sudden moment of magic- a letter simply came, and he took it up, with a blessing from his father. Dwarf society could use a little more magic, he said, and passed his son an amulet of infertility, just in case.

Nina lived the standard human life, together with her magick parents and brother. Her mother was a fairly accomplished enchanter and made a living selling her products as well as enchanting various objects around the household much to everyone's surprise. Her father though was a scientist researching whatever it was that they did while her older brother preferred to hone his skills in fire magic, picking up little nicks and burns here and there that could be fixed with simple healing. Nina on the other hand had never considered what type of person to be but had the rather concerning (to her mother anyway) habit of befriending and bringing home nearly every stray cat or dog in town until her parents gave up and bought her a cat so she'd stop. So just like many other magicks, her invitation letter arrived at her coming of age and Nina left to go pursue a career different to the rest of her family

Silas's height (178cm) paired with his long fringe that obscures his eyes gives him a particularly daunting figure. His eyes are orange and his hair is the colour of coal. If one was to ever peer closely, they'd see the beginnings of stubble growing from his chin. Despite looking rather thin, he has a solid and toned build. He lacks elf ears.
When studying he wears glasses and clips his hair back with a hairpin

Silas was born a half elf, his mother being the human. unfortunately, due to living in a particularly orthodox elf village located in Greece, he grew up being frowned upon by his community. At thirteen, he and his mother had decided to leave their village to avoid being forced out and started up again in an apartment in the city, leaving his father behind. During his city years, Silas preferred to venture out into alleyways to explore, becoming rather athletic and capable of defending himself although he always tried to avoid fights. They befriended an apothecary who lived nearby and he was kind enough to show Silas the very basics of potions so when his mother fell seriously ill, they were quick enough to save her though she'd be recovering for quite a while. When his letter arrived, he immediately accepted, promising to become a master at potions and earn enough money to support his mother back home.

 Note: Because Din does not identify as a gender, gender neutral pronouns should be used in reference to Din. Of course, characters can use other pronouns as part of their personal thoughts on gender and their thoughts about Din, but I encourage you to use gender neutral pronouns to refer to Din outside of character.
The pronoun set I'm using is called Spivak. Basically, it's 'they', 'them', 'their', 'theirs' and 'themself' but with the 'th' taken off. If it's easier, you may just want to use 'they', 'them', ect. which is fine too.ɴαмe

Din stands at a measly 4'0" (about 122cm) and has a lean build (because of elven genetics. Ey would otherwise be really stocky), though ey have built a fair amount of muscle in spite of the fact. Ey has dark-reddish complexion, blonde hair and brown eyes. Din is often found with a frown on eir face but truth be told that's just eir resting face.

Din grew up in an overground dwarven community that highly resembled a mundane gated community from the outside but still held onto many of the old dwarven ways. Din's father is an urban dwelf who often visits but does not live with Din and eir birth parent (who- like Din -does not identify as a gender. Din calls em 'birth one'). Din had the best upbringing possible in a community that looks down on mix breeds, most of eir trouble not coming from eir peers (who were amazingly supportive of Din's differences and led to eir sense of loyalty and camaraderie) but from the adults, who often gossiped about Din and eir family. When the letter arrived, Din's father managed to convince eir birth one to let em go along to the academy instead of continuing studies as a blacksmith, using the fact that Din needed to get out of the toxic environment that ey had been raised in as the major point.

Both Gage and his mother lived in poverty until his mother caught the eye of a richer man. Wanting the best for her child, his mother got the man to marry her and the two became provided for by Gage's new stepfather. Raised in a magic community from the start meant that nobody was surprised when Gage received an acceptance letter from Merlin.
Due to an accident in his first year, (one with only vague details due to being covered up) Gage lost both of his arms. His grades dropped immediately but with the help of his father's money, he was able to gain special prosthetics. Determined not to give up on learning magic, he managed to learn how to use his new arms and stayed in school. He chose to become an Alchemist, and is skilled in using fire as an element.

Middle eastern elves travel in nomadic groups, as they have been doing for centuries. While there are various (hidden) villages and cities scattered about, to be of importance means you have to be at the head of a travelling tribe. While originally Muna's mother was planning on marrying a fellow of a different tribe for the sake of ties, the charm of an urban elf with nontraditional views drew her in and she married Muna's father instead.
Muna himself lived in the tribe until he was around 7. His grandfather disapproved of his daughter's marriage and while his parents were a shunned couple, he was very much loved by his grandparents and therefore cherished by the rest of the tribe.
He eventually left with his parents for western urban elf society. His father became a rights activist while his mother taught him his culture and how to hide his ears with the illusion magic (devoid from vapor aspect water magic) that all middle eastern elves naturally know. Muna lived comfortably (though friendless) in a dingy apartment complex for the rest of his life, until he got a letter from Merlin and found it a perfect chance to lessen the burden on his parents. So he went on his merry way.

She's been attending Merlin for quite a while and she's worked very hard to have a promising future in front of her. It's going to be her last year.

Krystal's dad was an urban elf so her parents didn't have to deal with being shunned from villages or anything. She lived mostly like a human since she lived in the city, attended school, etc. Since her dad yells here and there in elvish, she knows some words. When Krystal got her letter, her parents were excited about it since they wanted Krystal to explore and study her more magic or elf side I guess. So now she's at Merlin in her third year.

Vivian was born in a liberal urban elf neighborhood in a big city. Her mom was an elf and her dad was a human, so her dad didn't show up much because he wasn't allowed in the elf neighborhood. Vivian grew up with lots of other elf children, but she would wander out of the neighborhood a lot and meet human children too.
Every time she went out, Vivian was yelled at, so after a while she stopped and sent them letters instead. One day, instead of getting a friend's letter, Vivian got a letter from the Academy. She was very excited and begged to be permitted to go, and her parents let her.
