Gwen Emrys

**Gwenddydd "Gwen" Emrys** was a Valean huntress and teacher. Gwen was a retainer for the Pendragon-Arc family and was close friends with the family, as well as being a mentor and teacher for Jaune Arc.

## Personality

Gwen describes herself an older sister, someone who watches over Jaune's journey. At the same time she is somewhat apathetic and comes off as seemingly uncaring and eludes all matters with an interested and amicable smile. Unlike her brother, she preserved her content mindset, never concerning herself with anything. She loves pranks and boys.

She interprets everything objectively, and even when analyzing the ugliest parts of humanity, she describes them in a hopeful tone, saying "Not everything needs to be neat and clean. No matter how sullied you get, as long as you have one clean spot, a single shining star, that's more than enough."

The Mage of Flowers is very aware of her status as a stranger to human society. She doesn't lament this fact and simply considers humans and herself to be two different things.

## Appearance

Merlin is described as someone who is so beautiful, that those who would gaze upon her shall forget any animosity they may have at the time. Like her male counterpart, she has a hood in her first ascension.

Gwen was a woman of Valean origin, with white hair, pink eyes, and fair skin. Gwen was a short and lithe woman who stood at 5'1" and weighed 44 lbs. Gwen was svelte and not very muscular, being more of a scholar and mage than someone who was too physically active. Gwen was not overly skinny, but she was not more muscular than what she required to stay fit. Gwen had a slender frame with flawless skin.

Gwen was considered to be one of the most beautiful women in the world, such that even those who had animosity with her would momentarily forget it. Gwen's beauty was such that she was compared to a living dream, a fairy, a sort of enchantress, or even a succubus. Some people who have met her claimed to have been utterly bewitched by her attractiveness. Gwen's complete and utter beauty was such that it drove many to jealousy and almost hit the uncanny valley, though not quite reaching that point.

Gwen had long, thick, and wavy white hair that was soft and fluffy. While normally completely white, Gwen's hair seemed to shine with all the colors of the rainbow when the sunlight hit it in certain angles. Gwen's hair was layered and hit her ankles, being somewhat wild in appearance but still well cared for. She had fringe that covered her forehead and obscured her ears from view. The sidelocks that were in front of her ears fell forward and reached up to her chest. Gwen had an ahoge that curled backwards that sprouted from the top of her head.

Gwen had large eyes that drew a lot of attention. Gwen's eyes were a peculiar and vivid shade of pink and they were compared to beautiful gemstones. Gwen's personal nature at times made her eyes seem cold or distant, though she often put on affectations that like that of true emotion (though certain people could sense something off from the look of her eyes). Gwen had long and thick eyelashes and had small and thin eyebrows.

Gwen had a heart-shaped face that was perfectly symmetrical and extremely beautiful. Gwen had high cheekbones, dimples on his cheeks, and a small, straight, and sharp nose. Gwen's jawline and chin were narrow and ended at a slight point, being somewhat small. Gwen had full lips that were a light pink in color. Although hidden by her hair, Gwen's ears were pointed like an elf or fairy. While strange to look at first, it only added to her beauty. Gwen's skin was noted to be very fair, smooth, and soft. Gwen's body was perfectly proportioned and despite her small stature, she had long and slender legs. Gwen had a large bust, narrow waist, and full hips which only added to her attractiveness. Gwen apparently had a long tongue. Gwen self-described her body as something almost sinful to look upon, though it was meant to only be a teasing comment. Gwen had a smooth, melodic, and sultry voice. Gwen apparently naturally smelled like an assortment of flowers, having a sweet and pleasing aroma around her. Gwen looked exactly like a female version of her brother, Merlin.

## Relationships

### Jaune Arc

Gwen was Jaune's mentor and teacher growing up, though their relationship is somewhat mixed. When Jaune was younger he had a massive crush on Gwen, though she gently turned him down due to the age gap (her being about the same age as both of his parents). The two then settled into a pseudo brother-sister relationship, with Gwen taking the role of the older sister.

While Gwen was supposed to be Jaune's mentor and teacher, she had a habit of leaving him to his own devices or pulling pranks on him, or throwing him to wolves because she found it amusing. While Jaune still loves her as though she were his sister, he can't help but be annoyed and exacerbated by her antics, much to her amusement. After Jaune became a young adult, it was not uncommon to see Jaune chasing after Gwen with his sword after one of her pranks. While there is no romantic or sexual love between them, Gwen did have a habit of teasing Jaune whenever she could because his reactions were adorable to her. Jaune considers himself less of Gwen's student, and more so her favorite source of entertainment. Gwen doesn't disagree with this, but she still did teach Jaune many things. For all the shenanigans that they got up to, anyone could see that they were very close and loved each other like family. Whenever Gwen was in a mischievous mood and she saw Jaune, her first instinct was to run away as she knew the second he saw her he would know exactly what she was planning.
