Manea x Alastor Litter Three

*** I really liked this design from the family thread. But I toned down the orangeyness.
if that wasn't cool, I can totally come up with a different design! Just thought it was worth a shot!***

Character name: Mariah Mendacium
Gender: Female

Appearance: At her foundation lies a base of crimson that is truly only exposed in her unders- her belly, her throat, her forearms, her inner legs, beneath her tail, and the sides of her muzzle. However, the tips of her ears are crested in the same shade. As for the rest of her topline, she adorns a coat of obsidian. Jet that begins at the bridge of her nose, masks her face, covers her shoulders, back, and hips- fades into her sides, and stops just short of the tip of her tail. Even still, there are some silver linings that should be noted. Her front toes, and her back paws with markings that trace the back of her legs up to the point of her hock. And of course, the Medacium mark- intricacies around her silver eyes.
Height: Medium (32")
Build: Light

Disability: Okay. So. I'm not entirely sure if this is acceptable or not, but I guess we'll find out together ^^; I had kinda imagined that she had crystalization in her digestive tract ..... I don't know if internal crystals are allowed to fulfill the disability, though ... Anyways. She would be born a seemingly healthy puppy, but the crystals will prevent her from absorbing nutrition properly after birth and as time goes on. Throughout her life, I imagined that she would be kinda teetering back and forth between a 'light' and 'emaciated' build. Because of her difficulty absorbing nutrition, I had also envisioned that she wouldn't grow to full size- maxing out around 32". IF THIS IS A DUMB IDEA AND DOESN'T WORK OR FULFILL THE REQUIREMENT- and she needs to have a disability, I would be happy to come up with something else. This is just what stuck with me through her development.

Alignment: Lawful Evil
Skills: With the crystal nutrion disorder, I would have her be Intellect and Healing. If her disability isn't needed or doesn't work and I need to go with something else, her skills would likely be something else. Probably Intellect and Fighting.

PERSONALITY:  
There is a lot that can be said as to what drives Mariah, however, it all comes down to her ingrained desire to be in control of every detailed aspect of her life. She is relentless in her pursuit of perfection and is overly critical of others who fail to meet her expectation- no matter how unreasonable they may seem to mere mortals. She has a very difficult time delegating tasks to those around her- no matter their willingness to help- because she simply believes that no one else could accomplish a task as well as she could. Mariah is very neat and organized with her stock and belongings. If she says that she will do something, she can be depended on to do so. That being said, disorder is an extreme source of stress for her, and will often avoid a messy environment so she doesn't feel compelled to right everything in her path. Her need for structure often overrides her concern for others, making it difficult for her to connect to those in her life.

Mariah's duties to her family and to Elysium are a compulsion that can't be ignored. Her loyalty is unwavering, and her heart and soul lie in the best interest of the Medaciums. She is focused and determined with concrete goals. She is a strong planner and is interested in choosing the best and most direct course of action in order to achieve her desired result- even if she has to go through someone else to accomplish her desired outcome. Throughout her life, Mariah will be determined to succeed- and her success will be her priority. Whoever stands in her way will be considered collateral damage for the greater good. She will be extremely competitive in her skillset and will refuse to take "No" for an answer. Mariah will be one of the first to rise to a difficult situation, eager to prove herself and assert her superiority. She is bold in speaking her opinions and is unafraid to take action to further her objectives. She will remain quite focused on her goals without being distracted by others and their needs. Her lack of concern as to what others may think of her will give her a sense of transparency; as in, you'll usually know what she's thinking because she doesn't care enough to hide her thoughts and feelings. And when it comes to a difficult truth reveal, she's always eager to be the one to rip off the bandaid. Mariah has no reservations when it comes to conflict- or being the voice of general opposition. It doesn't bother her to stand alone in her own point of view if nothing more than to get a rise out of those around her.

Mariah lives her life with great passion. She feels strongly about what she sees and hears, and once she does finally establish a connection with someone, she will have intense feelings for them as well. That being said, she will have obvious hot buttons and could be described to have a temperamental nature. It won't be outside her character to withhold resources, information, or attention until her needs have been met. When upset, she will have a tendency to behave erratically and explosively, leaving relationship shrapnel in her wake. Her impatience will often get the best of her, as well. Because of her desire for things to happen quickly, she will often push herself to work quickly. She is forward-looking, keeping her sights set on what's coming down the line to be prepared to the best of her abilities. Mariah is a thinker and enjoys the process of metaphorically reducing an object or issue to its base components in order to see what's working, and what needs improvement. She works well alone, is dedicated, intelligent, and is a strong problem solver. She has refined observational skills and is generally accurate in her assessments of the world around her. One of her many points is to try and put the pieces together in order to see what's coming down the road.

PLANS:
+ I would like her to find a healing mentor that she'll study with for a long time- and then spend her adolescent life trying to surpass in skillset. She'll be desperate to prove her capabilities and her superiority. So I think that would be a nice one-sided rivalry. She would also be really frustrated if they didn't challenge her back- which may be good or bad ^^;
+ You know me, all about that skill grind.
+ I'm down for sibling romances. As far as her soul mate- or any arranged relationships, I'm pretty well open for! She's gonna be a bit neurotic/high strung though, so that should be fun.
+ I'm not sure if she'll favor one parent or the other. Honestly, as she gets older, she may spend more time trying to impress Avacyn than Manea, once it clicks that Mom isn't going to be in charge forever.
