 Knight Title: Serenitatis, Page of The Moon
Wonder Description:
Serenitatis was once home to a small temple that promoted personal well being (both for the soul and the body). The inner temple lay claim to some rather beautiful and detailed stained glass windows that glowed delicately in the light of the moon, as well as ornate mosaic lined floors.
Surrounded by manicured gardens which made up the bulk of Serenitatis' land, it boasted several 'pools of reflection' (ornately decorated ponds) that were rumoured to show one's true self and provide one with the means to heal and seek comfort. For this reason, it was considered a destination for those who were distraught, anxious or otherwise troubled.
As there are no artefacts to support that the pools possessed specific any magical properties; scholars might have been shrewd enough to recognise that the priestesses who tended to both pools and gardens were often empathetic and astute enough to make gentle observations that might well nudge an individual towards finding the solace they sought.
Beyond this, the well tended gardens and the silence of the temple provided an ideal location for self-reflection, meditation, or an opportunity to have a moment to breathe for those who lived busy or chaotic lives.
Uniform:
Premade - see image.
Intention is to discuss her development to keep it lore friendly as she upgrades, so at the moment I haven't envisaged anything specific for her in Squire or Knight forms.
Weapon & Magic
Page Weapon:
A simple lantern made of gold.
Squire:
A golden lantern with a delicate gold chain appearing from the top. It has ornate moons carved into the base of the lantern, and very small crescent moon jewels dangling at periodic intervals along the chain. Note that at this point the chain is very much like jewellery and unlikely to support the weight of the lantern if the grip on the handle was lost.
When using her magic Serenitatis stretches her lantern outwards and raises it above her head. As she channels her magic, an area 8ft around her is bathed in moonlight.
Any allies within this light are shielded from both physical and magical attacks. This magic will completely nullify attacks for those of the same rank or lower than Serenitatus. It will reduce the damage of those of a higher rank such as Eternals/Knights.
This magic can last for 35 seconds at Squire stage.
Knight Weapon:
A golden lantern with a gold and pearl woven chain appearing from the top. It has ornate moons carved into the base of the lantern, and very small crescent moon jewels (each with a pearl cradled in the arc) dangling at periodic intervals along the chain. This chain can support the weight of the lantern as though it were a thurible.
When using her magic Serenitatis stretches her lantern outwards and raises it above her head. As she channels her magic, an area 8ft around her is bathed in moonlight.
Any allies within this light are shielded from both physical and magical attacks. This magic will completely nullify attacks for those of the same rank or lower than Serenitatus.
This magic can last for 50 seconds at Knight stage.

Name: Margo Templeton
Nickname: Margo
Gender/Pronoun: Female (She/Her)
Age: 34 Years Old
Birthday: 17th June 1987
Sign: Gemini
Gemstone: Pearl
**********
Fav. Food: Steak Pie, smothered in gravy, with an ample side of roast potatoes.
Hated Food: Steamed Cauliflower
**********
Occupation: Radiographer
She works in one of the local hospitals as part of the team that specialises in Tomography e.g. CT Scanning.
**********
Hobbies:
Reading
In her younger years reading was one of the best means to find escape in to a variety of fantasy worlds. While other children had the opportunity to go out and enjoy other entertainment venues such as Broadway, sports and movie theatres, Margo had yet to receive the much needed devices that would help here to explore these hobbies. As such, she found comfort in the adventures told in these books, and the opportunity to place herself in them if she so chose.
As she grew older and opportunities opened to her, she never lost her love for the ability to become lost in a world entirely unlike her own, and even now she continues to devour at least one book every two days (if not more during her time off).
She's a common sight at the city library and she'd probably be spotted at local book fairs as well.
Sculpting
It should be noted that Margo is not a good artist. In fact, some of her creations are probably more like something a five year old might make in their art class, but the opportunity to use her hands and express herself is something that brings her joy.
More often than not, the items she sculpts are inspired by those she knows and what they may like. As such, you may find that you receive a rather odd looking gift that's 'supposed' to be something you're familiar with. It might be your pet dog, a favourite item, or even a bust of your girlfriend... fact of the matter is that it probably isn't going to look anywhere close and you may want to consider it to be modern art instead.
On the plus side, she is rather good at paint work, so if you give her an existing model or sculpture then it's likely to look fairly good when she's finished. Alas, to this day she has never been asked to work on a collaboration.
Cooking (Not Baking)
Margo is actually a very good cook and can make some of the more complex dishes provided she has adequate instructions for the first few times that she attempts them. While she has a passion for starchy foods (those she deems to be good and hearty foods), she will give anything a try and she'll eat it too even if she's not entirely sold on the ingredients used to make it e.g. offal.
Unfortunately, while she seems to have a knack for making these complex dishes and very much enjoys having others over to sample them... she's absolutely abysmal at baking.
Be sure to specify that you want savoury foods from her for any cook-outs or potlucks you might have. She won't take it personally and quite frankly she'd love to share one of her passions with others. If you are feeling adventurous though, you can ask her to make dessert, but don't say you weren't warned!
**********
Virtues:
Patient
Not every solution to a problem is easy, and not every person can reach the same conclusion in the same amount of time. There are those in all walks of life that need a little more time and Margo is the type of individual who very much likes to give them that opportunity. Given that she aspires towards a measure of perfection, she knows all too well that things can't be rushed and as such, she's happy to wait and move at the pace that another feels more comfortable.
Whether solving a problem, or simply seeking someone to talk to. Margo will be there to cheer or comfort, all in the individual's own time.
Even when working towards her own goals the woman is rarely frustrated at how long some of her activities may take. In the end, good things come to those who wait.
Altruistic
In Margo's line of work it doesn't serve anyone well to simply not care about the sick, injured or struggling. After all, she wants the best for her patients and if she didn't, then she wouldn't be that good at her job.
This means that generally speaking, Margo attempts to understand the suffering and pain of others so that she can appreciate where they might be coming from and how best to help them. Whether physical or emotional, she does not like to see someone in pain or suffering from trials that might well be unnecessary.
If there's a way for her to assist then she will certainly try to do so, even if it's just a small smile or buying someone's coffee for them during the morning commute so their day is just a little bit better.
Tenacious
Margo does not like to give up easily. If she was inclined to give up when things became difficult then there would be a few things she never would have achieved, including her career. As such, when Margo puts her mind to it, she'll do her damn best to get where she needs to go.
Whether it's a hobby, a personal project, or a challenging personality from someone she just met, she'll be the type of individual who keeps trying even if obstacles are encountered. This isn't to say that she won't give up eventually if there truly is no way to succeed in whatever she's trying to do, but it'll take more than a few falls or obstacles before she'll throw in the towel.
**********
Flaws:
Brusque
It should be noted that while Margo can't hear well, she can hear tone. Her implants are not new and as a result, she is accustomed to how her own voice sounds as well. However, even though she is well aware of how she sounds she often answers in a rather short or abrupt manner. While she means no harm, this often leads to those around her assuming that she may be rude, busy, or that she simply doesn't like them.
She should know better (and does), but hasn't necessarily pushed herself to change in this capacity. Those who know her have learned to put this down to 'that may just be how she talks', and that's a stance she has taken for granted.
Fastidious
Margo is inclined to get fixated on the small details. This is exceptionally valuable in her day-to-day work, but it has the possibility of becoming rather problematic outside of this. Generally speaking her view that everything should be perfect and that not a single spec of dust (or loose thread) be left anywhere, means that everything may take 2-3 times longer than it needs to.
She has the habit of becoming flustered or upset when things aren't 'just right' and it wouldn't be entirely unsurprising to find someone might lose their temper with her if time is of the essence and 'perfection' shouldn't be the enemy of 'good'.
Timid
Margo really doesn't do well in a crisis and needs someone strong to hide behind, whether it be mentally or physically. Given her habit of focusing on the minor things rather than the major things, she'll become distracted or frightened by something so 'big' that it overwhelms her.
In these cases she isn't very reliable in times of need, particularly if she's expected to act alone. In a team she can be ordered or instructed to act by someone with more confidence, but one wouldn't be blamed for worrying if she was the only one standing in a crisis and the rest of those around her needed her to set them free!
Note that her professional and private life are rather different. Given hospital environments often have specific policies and procedures, as well as one co-ordinating voice, she copes well in these scenarios. You'll just have to be mindful and careful of her during her private life; and during her secret super hero adventures.
**********
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes:
Large, round and brown eyes. She doesn't look constantly startled, but given how often she 'stares' at others when they speak, you certainly won't miss that she's watching.
Hair:
Long navy hair (approximately just passed the shoulder blades). She has a small braid to the side, while her fringe has been dyed in an subtle nod to a more playful side with a streak of light blue, pink and apricot along the right hand side.
Face:
Margo's face is heart shaped with faded freckles along her cheekbones.
Skin Tone:
Margo has a very slight tan to the point she could be described as sun-kissed, though this is partial to fading during the Winter when she can't enjoy the good weather quite as much.
Body Type:
Quite a small woman (5'2" ) with a slight frame. She has subtle curves but has no immediate features of note.
Clothes:
The world's most comfy clothes - in short, jeans, woolly sweaters (or tank tops in summer) and either calf-high boots or sandals depending on the season. She will occasionally dress up, but she tends to use shoes to make herself look fancier rather than picking out dresses.
Additional Notes:
Margo has been deaf since she was born and as such, has two cochlear implants that assist her to hear. However, she does look like she may be staring as while she can hear, it isn't perfect, and she relies on secondary lip reading to fully understand what an individual may be saying sometimes.
She normally wears these day-to-day, but if you see her without these in her ears you can still converse with her as her lip reading skills remain sufficient.
She does speak ASL and is happy to practice with those who want to learn it.

Allies
They may not be particularly close to her, but she knows she can rely on them if she needs a little help.
