### Relatives

The Flammels (Adoptive Parents)
Jovialus Kao (Partner)
Minine Mercer (Descendant)

### Affiliation

Amygea Moriam (Friend)
Mercuron Kao (Friend)
Zachary Isles (Friend)

## Personality

She is a pretty playful and fun-loving character though can be very serious and smart when she wants to be. Cares about not hurting others feelings, and doesn't like it when others hurt people's feelings on purpose or if they don't deserve it.

## Appearance

TJ is a fairly short and skinny character, especially in comparison to most others. TJ has short, somewhat messy pink hair. She usually wears a white-pink hat and suit and glasses. Her skin is a light pink color. As a ghost, she can sometimes alter her lower half to have a "ghostly t(r)ail" rather than a lower torso and legs.

In TJ's redesign generally used outside of the alpha timeline, TJ's ghostly form takes on a shapeshifted rodent-like appearance based on her affinity for rats, gaining rat-like ears and tail. She still keeps her pink hair and glasses, but can be seen wearing more casual attire.

## Story

### **Alpha****-****Unsplit** Timeline

TJ Mercer was originally born as a Gridmask on the Proto Planet, in a section of Proto-Storge. TJ was orphaned shortly after her birth due to unknown circumstances involving her birth parents, and this led to her being adopted by her distant blood relatives, the Flammels. Nicholas Flammel, at the time, had begun his foundation of the Grey Agents, and he often invited his wife, Perreth, and his adoptive daughter, TJ, to the many speeches he held to honor and appraise mortal societies and lead generations against the tyranny of Outsider forces.

Aside from attending the meetings hosted by Nicholas, TJ also went to one of the witch academies on the Proto Planet. However, in all this teaching, TJ still was unable to find out actually how to use magic.

TJ was unknowingly used as the test experiment for Nicholas' "Philosopher's Stone" experiment by the Grey Agents, which, at the time, was only in its beta stage. Its original goal was to create immortal life in attempt to elevate the status of mortals, but instead resulted in TJ's death.

Flammel was horrified at having accidentally caused the death of his adoptive daughter, but he was even more horrified as, suddenly, her corpse disappeared, and was replaced by an incorporeal-like form. It was realized that, because TJ had been killed by the Beta Philosopher's Stone, her soul had undergone some process of ascension, giving her a ghostly form, with powers much further beyond that of the average revenant, and a form beyond the average rules for undead spirits.

Rather than being distraught over such a death, TJ was fairly overjoyed at the new experience, and technical everlasting form in the mortal world. However, as a consequence, if TJ's soul is killed, she is easily erased from existence.

It is believed that TJ eventually went to Storge-Prime, and then later to Ludus-Prime, much like the other gridmasks. While the former is unknown, the latter is confirmed, as she ends up on Ludus-Prime later in canon.

### **Alpha****-****Doomed** Timeline

At some after Mori had fled to Auzos with their fellow Grey Agents, Mori and TJ met, and formed a friendship.

TJ at some point asked for Mori to teach her how to actually use magic, something that she had not learned in her school days, and Mori agreed, then going on to teach her in the arts of pyromancy.

### **Nu** Timeline

TJ was somehow summoned to Ludus in the Nu Timeline, where she existed for a very, very long time, before coming to encounter Jovialus, who she quickly developed feelings for. The feelings were mutual, and the two began a long term relationship.

### **Other** Timelines

The Philosopher's Stone experiment had a high rate of failure in most timelines. If not specifically mentioned, it is to be assumed that the experiment took place but failed entirely, leaving TJ to die normally without leaving any ghost form.
