Character

A young Seeker of the Sun who left her tribe, too compassionate and gentle to find her place within harsh tribal life. She strives to help others above all else. She is headstrong and a bit naive, which gives her a knack for landing herself in trouble.

General

Unmei is a very bright and sweet girl. She tries to see the best in people even when it may not actually be there. She has poor self-esteem, but is otherwise so optimistic that it usually goes without notice. Humble and modest, and all around very virtuous--most of her faults lie in being too kind. She has an open mind and tries to treat others fairly, judging others as little as she can. She sympathizes and empathizes with others very well. Despite this, people who are very loud, violent, or imposing to sometimes make her nervous. She is very emotional and when she feels something, she feels strongly. She is against violence, save for the sake of protecting others who are helpless.

She enjoys making friends, helping others, and meeting new people. She is often too trusting of others. She has a very strong intuition and can often tell when people are up to no good, but even when their ill intentions are obvious, she gives others the benefit of the doubt rather than going with her gut instinct. And when her trust is betrayed, rarely does she have a problem lending someone a second chance. She puts others before herself, leading her to be rather self-sacrificing in nature. However, she is very stubborn and when she feels someone is acting immoral and hurting others, she won`t hesitate to tell them and try to change their attitude. When she sees corruption in others, she would rather try to help them than condemn them for their crimes. Headstrong, she does not let anyone else sway her beliefs.

She is a very genuine and sincere girl. Even when she does try to lie or hide her emotions, she usually fails. She is cheery and friendly, though given to bouts of depression when triggered, but it`s hard to keep her down for long. She is very expressive and often laughing or smiling. She seems very childlike, laid back and carefree, but she is still composed enough to retain the basic politeness and manners. She is very friendly, even if not directly outgoing or extroverted.

Name

Given Name: X'unmei Noh

Nicknames and Aliases: She often introduces herself by her given first name alone, never mentioning her tribe letter or her father's name (her surname), even to other Seekers of the Sun, unless directly asked. If her name is shortened, she prefers it be shortened to Mei.

Appearance

Unmei is petite, even a bit smaller than most Miqo'te women, though she is long-legged despite her height, or lack thereof. She is slender, not much meat on her bones but also neither sickly thin, maintaining small curves and enough flesh to remain soft and supple, delicate looking but healthy. The girl's skin is somewhat pale, but possesses a vibrant glow with a faint olive tone. She has a bit of a baby face that can make her look just slightly younger than she actually is, her face round with chubby cheeks, a small and pointed nose, and wide-eyed in innocence. Large, almond-shaped eyes are lined with thick, black eyelashes, possessing the slitted pupils of her clan, the irises of each eye a different color: her right eye a hunter green and her left a brown faintly tinted red. Her eyebrows are set in a delicate, rounded arch. Two tan stripes mark each cheek under her eyes, another pair on her forehead appearing from her hairline. A faint, barely perceptible array of light brown freckles dot her cheeks and the bridge of her nose. Her round cheeks are also graced with a subtle pink blush that darkens quite often when she is nervous or embarrassed. A smile, sometimes subtle or sometimes quite wide, graces her lips which are naturally a glossy, rosy pink, her mouth narrow and her lips small with a cupid's bow. Her hair and fur are both a dark auburn color. Her hair is straight and sleek, usually pulled back into a long, high ponytail that sways behind her, bangs smoothed back from her forehead, though some layers that are shorter than the rest escape from her ponytail to frame each side of her neck at an angle. When left down, her hair falls to her hips. Her reddish-brown tail is long, especially for a Seeker of the Sun, the fur at the end thicker than the rest and fluffy. Pointed, feline ears are each pierced twice, and aside from her earrings she seems to wear no jewelry.

Speech

When cheery, nervous, or excited she speaks in a youthful soprano tone, high-pitched and a little fast without being to the point of grating or unpleasant. When relaxed, in private or in more serious conversation, her voice usually slows, lowers and mellows, a more mature sound than the chipper tones most will hear at first. While not thick enough to quite be considered an accent, she speaks with a slight, casual drawl and lazy slur of her words, though it's subtle. Oftentimes words are simply not fully pronounced or are run together. Despite this, she has no problem properly pronouncing words if she so chooses and she has a healthy vocabulary. When angry or in other great emotional distress, her Miqo'te accent will sometimes slip through with hisses and rolled R's.

Behavior

TBA

Motivations: Helping others and making them happy. Doing good deeds.

Disposition: A bit shy at first, but friendly, welcoming, and cheerful, and usually open and honest. She is almost always happy, but she is very emotional and sometimes negative feelings can get the best of her.

Outlook: Positive; she believes everyone has the capability to be a good person, though sometimes her faith falters. She tries to be the best person that she can be and hopes she can bring out the same in others.

Positive Personality Traits

Kind, caring, empathetic, forgiving, friendly, compassionate, modest, honest, optimistic, unindulgent (save for with sweets!), and quick-witted.

Negative Personality Traits

Stubborn, puts others before herself, too trusting of others and often naive, emotional and sometimes rash, childish, dependent on others, self-sacrificing, often a bit stand-offish upon first meeting strangers.

Combat

She is almost entirely a pacifist, refusing to fight unless someone's life is in immediate danger from a foe who cannot be reasoned with. Even then, however, she will only fight long enough to buy time for whoever is being harmed to escape. She is adept at shooting a bow, but otherwise lacks any offensive capabilities. Due to her small size and her feline nature as a Miqo'te, she has quick reflexes, but she is also rather clumsy.

Tendencies

LIKES ■ Sugar! She has a sweet-teeth and loves desserts and candies. ■ Small, cute things! Live animals, stuffed animals, babies, Lalafell--you name it. ■ Making new friends and bringing others happiness.

DISLIKES ■ Insects. Creepy-crawlies are certainly her least favorite aspect about her time spent living on her own. ■ Formalities. She's mostly polite, but she's not exactly refined. ■ Cruelty and violence.

MISC. QUIRKS ■ She is rather clumsy--not enough to injure herself regularly, but enough to say that she possess feline grace would be an outright lie. ■ She has a knack for finding and attracting trouble. ■ She abstains from drinking alcohol, drugs, or other substances that aren't just tasty.

HOBBIES/TALENTS ■ Singing, though she will not sing when knowingly in the presence of others. ■ Reading! She enjoys reading books of all varieties, both fiction and non-fiction, though romances are her favorite. ■ Empathy; she is always happy to lend an ear, a shoulder to cry on, or some advice, and she's at least decent at it. ■ Archery. She rarely makes use of her bow, and never on a living target, but she has very accurate aim.

Relationships

Family

Her mother passed away of illness when she was thirteen. Her father, a Nunh of the Lynx tribe by the name of Noh remains with his tribe. As could be expected, Unmei did not have a close relationship with her father and cut all ties with him and the rest of her tribe when she left. She is the only child between her mother and Noh. She has several half-siblings fathered by Noh, but most are nearly strangers to her and viewed as distant cousins at best. She has no other close or significant relatives.

Enemies

None! Even when others wrong her she will try to help them and give them a second chance... and a third chance... and a fourth chance...

♥♥ Cyrus Mulano - A lost Midlander she helped find his way to the inn in Gridania. To repay her kindness, he insisted on taking her in when he learned she had no home. Since then, she has been at his side, traveling wherever his work sends him. Unmei marvels at his kindness and bravery. His strength and generosity easily won her over, and with much time to spend together living with each other in close quarters, the two quickly developed a relationship deeper than friendship, though they usually act quite cordial toward each other.
