Melusina Vigil

## Personality

Melusina is a very curious and inquisitive girl. Ever since she could fully recognise shapes as a child, she would grab and vaguely gesture to the object to find out what it is. When she was old enough for school, she was known for her habit of keeping a small notebook where she would write down random facts and rumours she overheard.

She is also known to be quite reckless and blunt. She was known to be placed into detention when she was in her first years at Ilemarthe for speaking out of turn, or for saying things as she saw them. Her blunt nature has led to Melusina fighting with other students or making others upset, as she does not think before she speaks unless speaking to older people whom she respects. Her recklessness also has placed her into some tight spots, as she is quite impulsive when it comes to doing things, one impulsive decision led to her manifesting her familiar Pel.

Despite her ‘negative’ aspects Melusina, once comfortable, is known to grow very attached to her close friends and becomes incredibly loyal to them. She will fiercely defend them as best as she can and given that it comes to it she will fight, despite her lack of skills in that department. Around close friends, she feels like she can let her guard down, and knows that they will not take too much offense if she was to be overly blunt when talking to them.

## Appearance

Melusina is portrayed as a young girl in her teen years. She has curly, ginger hair, that is very voluminous. She has her hair down most of the time, despite its size, and has small bangs to frame her face. She also has tanned skin, despite what most would think of someone with red hair, and is covered head to toe in freckles and moles (people in her younger years called her ‘Dots’ to reference this particular trait). Her striking green eyes place her in the small percentage of people who have that genetic combination.

She also dons some small and tasteful piercings, those being her nostril and her assorted ear piercings. Despite piercings being something less common among students, she is one of the few with facial piercings, due to the school's lack of policy on body modifications Ilemarthe had no option but to accept this change.

Melusina can be seen around Ilemarthe wearing her uniform, which consists of black trousers, a black vest jumper, a white shirt, and her house tie. Most of the time her shirt is not fully buttoned and not tucked into her trousers, which leads to it poking out from underneath her vest. She only wears her house robes in the colder months or for large school gatherings.

Outside of her uniform, Melusina can be seen in casual clothing which tends to consist of a simple t-shirt and baggy jeans. She does not go out of her way to create an outfit and picks comfort and convenience over fashion and style. Not to say her clothing choice is bad, just very plain and simple.

## Background

When Melusina moved to Ilemarthe in her first year, she met Icarus Athanasiou. Melusina and Icarus quickly became close friends, despite their differences in ideals, and were seen together often around the Ilemarthe campus. They grew to share their free time together as they experienced Ilemarthe together and grew to be best friends.

In their fourth year, Melusina told Icarus that she had a crush on his male best friend and was hoping for his advice on how to approach Blaze Adeyemi. Icarus, believing that it was a joke, told Blaze and destroyed the trust bond that he and Melusina once had. Blaze told Melusina that he did not reciprocate the feelings she had, and when she asked how he found out he mentioned Icarus. Hearing this sent Melusina on a warpath to find him and confront him. Once she found him, she gave him some colourful words and it ended with him being punched in the face. Melusina received a month of punishment from the headmistress and a two-week suspension from Ilemarthe. In that two weeks, she went home and isolated herself from everyone and once she returned to Ilemarthe, she became even more reserved and blunter towards others.
