Maeve Uisce

## Powers

### Power 1

Water Shield - Maeve can summon a shield of water that turns a direct strike to a glancing blow. She can use it once per two turns unless her stamina has been depleted. The shield can not take heavy damage from fire or lightning, leading to its use in deflecting physical melee/ranged attacks among some minor magics. It can reduce the damage of a fire or lightning attack, but will vanish afterwards.

### Power 2

Vapor Bullets - Maeve condenses the vapor in the air to a highly pressurized point and then fires them. She needs almost uninterrupted concentration for them to make it to their target. The bullets evaporate after approximately 20 feet.

### Weakness

Being out of water for too long, it can make her sick; Having her seal skin stolen, this can also make her sick if it is damaged

## Other

### Tail?

When she is in seal form she has a tail and flippers

### Fur?

When she is in seal form she has very short but thick fur to keep her warm in cold waters

## Bio/Past

Maeve is the eldest of three children and the only selkie child to her Selkie mother and human father. She lived with her parents until she was 17, during which she had a fairly uneventful childhood. She wanted to do something exciting and decided to head to the academy to fulfill that craving.

## Personality

Maeve has a bubbly personality that isn't uncommon for someone with a "normal" childhood ~~if you can call realizing that you can turn into a seal a normal childhood~~. She tries to help as many people as possible and loves to be in the water, whether it's the ocean, a lake, a pool or just a bath. If she is away from the water too long, about 2 weeks with minimum exposure (i.e 15 minutes at least), she starts to become irritable and depressed. After about a month with minimum exposure she becomes ill. Any longer than two months and it is likely she will die if she is not put in water for several hours or days (the length depends on how safe whoever is with her wants her to be, several hours a day will greatly improve her health after long periods without water).

## Appearance

Maeve has pale skin with freckles that is common within her family when she is in her human form. Her hair extends just past her shoulders and is a shade of orange reminiscent of sunset. Her eyes are almost the same color of a turbulent sea. She is just about 5'4 (or 163 cm) with an athletic build from all of the swimming she does, both in and out of her seal form.

When she puts on a special seal skin pelt she turns into a seal. In her seal form she looks mostly the same as an average harbor seal though her coloring leans closer towards the color of her hair in human form.

When in her human form her seal pelt is generally wrapped or tied around her waist like a sweatshirt or a flannel shirt would be.

## Skills

Form Shifting - By either donning or removing her seal pelt, Maeve can shift between her seal form (what some consider her natural form) to her human form.
