Name: Mientia (Mien for short)
Age: Adolescent
Element: Mind
Personality: Calm and collected, Mien typically holds her own in verbal debates. She has wisdom beyond her years, and offers a different perspective on things. However, she is cowardly in physical battle. She cannot fight well, due to her disability.
History: Mien was born with the gift of the gods- the powers of Mind. However, all power comes with a price. She was born without the gift of sight. She can never see for herself. She was originally thought to be a worthless pup, one who could not help the cause. But then her mother, a Plant Wolf, brought a hawk chick to the den. It was still alive, but she did not intend for it to be prey. She introduced the chick to her own child, and a bond was formed. Mien tapped into the mind of the hawk chick and accessed its eyes. She guided the bird onto her head and called it "Cresseda". Cress is Mien's eyes. Mien, while young, can tap into Cress's thoughts. The two are extensions of each other. The two rely on each others' instincts. Mien is now in training, using Cress as eyes in the sky.
RP sample: Mien stood calmly behind the rock. She was bored, waiting for her mentor to show up. Very few Runes had her power, she knew that, but they still trained her in combat and hunting. Many had forgotten her disability, but it popped up every now and then, and with some more than others. She did not want to train with this mentor- she treated Mien like a child for it. She closed her eyes out of instinct, though it did not make any difference. She then reached, feeling her powers stretch and search.
Cresseda, I need you here. It is time to train.Cresseda was not long in coming. The hawk soared out of the trees and landed gently on Mientia's scruff. Then she shuffled along and perched more comfortably at the base of her neck. Cresseda's eyes glimmered purple as Mien tapped into them. The vision Mien now had was sharp and clear, if at an awkward angle. Cress's head turned slowly, and Mien sighed. This was such a long wait! Where was that wolf?
Finally, her mentor arrived. An Earth Rune in her upper years, she treated Mien like she could do nothing. "Come on now, sweetie. Let's practice control a little more." As Mien stood, the wolf made sure to always stay in Cresseda's line of sight and never move too quickly. Her babying was obvious as the lesson started. Mien knew it would be a long day now.
