RACE || Silver Elven
GENDER || Female
AGE || Appears 25 {82}
HEIGHT || Roughly 5'7
WEIGHT || Average
Melarue could be described as lithe, with soft curves, and not much in the way of muscle definition. Her features are somewhat sharp and pointed, making her expressions appear more stern or hawkish, though her mannerisms and the way she holds herself could be described as elegant. She is pale, though it no longer holds the dark veins it once did, and other than her scars it is generally unblemished. Her hair is long, straight, and stark white in colour, reaching just below the base of her back. Smaller elven ears are met with a pair of white horns that fade to dark grey that curve along the sides of her head, etched in teal Infernal runes. Her eyes are a pale blue-grey, littered with silver specks throughout the iris.

DISLIKES || Monotony, Jishrim, Zealots, Uncertainty
RELIGION || She is greatly indifferent to the Pantheon in terms of faith.
FEARS || Blindness, Losing Xandar, Aleksei's Judgement
TEMPER || Less common now, but perhaps an extreme when it appears.
Most often a calm exterior, she tends to hold a neutral or impassive outlook in many things. She has become reserved, quiet, with a newfound tendency to lurk in darker parts and hidden corners of the places she visits. She suffers greatly with paranoia, wariness, and a distrust towards most people, but she holds a great deal of love for her young son and with him she is different. She does however have impulsive behaviours, and has no issue in resorting to violence as she feels this is the only way people listen or get things done.
[ STRENGTHS ]
♢ WELL LEARNED; She has varied skills and knowledge to help her in navigating her day to day which can be applied to a variety.
♢ OBSERVANT; She has a keen eye, sensitive ears, and is quiet and careful on her feet. She's good at looking and listening for things.
♢ PROTECTIVE; There is nothing she loves more than her children, and her friends are few. She is protective of what she has left.
[ WEAKNESSES ]
♢ POOR SWIMMER; She can swim as a result of lessons, but she is by no means a strong swimmer and drowning is a real risk.
♢ FORGETFUL; There are great gaps in her memory from her possession, and she generally finds more difficult in remembering.
♢ TROUBLED; Paranoia, distrust, anxiety, and stress merge together as she tries to parse through the misdeeds and mistakes.
LANGUAGES || She is fluent in speaking, reading and writing with Elven, and Common. Her Rede is good, but imperfect. Infernal.
EDUCATION || She has learnt by herself over her long life, to make up for a proper formal education in her youth. Knowledgeable.
HOBBIES || Far and few between, she likes tending to plants, gazing at the stars, and tinkering with gemstones.
INTELLECT || She is a smart woman, with a basic education but a wealth of worldly knowledge and experience.
She has focused in the arts of medicine, herbalism, and alchemical practices for a large portion of her life, and so is an exceptional healer. Be this in medical care, alchemical reagents, or midwifery, she knows what she's doing either with the mundane or arcane arts. During her time as a demon, she also learnt the more harmful methods to apply alchemy, amongst other things.
[ SKILLS & ABILITIES ]
♢ HERBALISM; She knows plenty about plants and their uses, and can make a multitude of poultices, salves, and concoctions. Be this to help others, or harm them.
♢ MEDICINE; She has steady hands, and an expanse of knowledge. She has experience in midwifery, surgery, general care, and generally keeping people alive. Or, not.
♢ ANATOMY; With things such as surgery and medicine, there comes an understanding of anatomy. Especially on the various patients who come out of battles directly.
[ COMBAT & FITNESS ]
♢ RANGED; She has some knowledge with crossbows, having practiced a fair amount in combat scenarios. Whilst not the best, she is a step above a beginner, now.
♢ MELEE; She has experience with daggers, and the rapier, more than other weapon types. Lighter sorts, relying on speed rather than strength in her movements.
♢ AGILITY; She is nimble, making up for her lack of physical strength in being quick and fast on her feet. She uses this primarily to avoid others, but also in athletics.
ALLERGIES || She has none that she knows of, at least for the moment.
ADDICTIONS || She is was once addicted to various alchemical substances, but no more.
MEMORY || She has lost large amounts of it as a result of her possession, alchemical uses, and deaths.
AILMENTS || Her eye is restored, and so she has no ailments.
SLEEPING || She sleeps more than she used to, but not on a regular schedule.
HOMELAND || A church in the old lands.
DEATHS || She has died three times so far:
♢ 19th February, 2018 - Stabbed in the heart by Iskvandar.
♢ 17th April, 2022 - Shot through the throat by Somnastra.
♢ 21st September, 2022 - Burnt alive from within by attempted exorcism.
She remembers very little of her own history. Having been raised in a strange and troubled childhood home, she was eventually taken in and raised by priests of Shalherana who cared for her until the undead took over the continent and she had to flee to the new lands. There, the Compendium eventually became her home, venturing out to Linlea during the Blight and spending time in the service of House Bayard and various Ignites before returning to the Compendium. Eventually, she would become possessed, and spend a part of her life in a demonic state before being exorcised and residing within Ashstadt. Eventually, with her son and bundles of problems from her demonic period, she'd open the Grand Archives and try to focus on that. (And then return to Dranoden, with all of that.)
WARDROBE || She owns a variety of expensive, extravagant things, though no longer really cares for them and opts for simpler.
FUNDS || She relies on what Aleksei left her, what the Archives got her, and the various items she accrued in times before. It may be dwindling.
LANDS || She holds 'land' in the South but it is not official in the traditional sense of the word. Complicated.
HOMES || She once claimed dominion in the South with Dayton, and holds those lands as her current place of safety.
BUSINESSES || None, anything she owned is in the past and she does not expect she'd be able to run one without her history getting in the way.
PETS || None, though she used to have a cat that she loved very much. She could get another cat, some day.
