Profile

A young girl that made a pact with a water elemental in a desperate grasp for any power at all, Lynn grew up the disappointment child of an otherwise prestigious mage family. Continual failures and mockery led her to leave in search of either new lands or death, and an unusual attempt at the latter ended up starting a chain of events that would eventually solve most of her problems. She recovered well over the next couple years, but before she could go out adventuring formally, her world fell apart and became a piece of the World of Ruin. She now wanders the worlds, trying to use her gift for the good of others. She's incredibly reluctant to actually hurt anyone, but if someone gets injured, she's likely to be the first to step in and try to take good care of them (and NOT in the ironic sense of the term). Expect some level of eccentricity, though -- sharing one's mind, body, and soul with an elemental tends to have... interesting results. An overactive (doubled-up) hero complex, talking to herself, and the occasional personality conflict is just the beginning.

Abilities

The core of Lynn's abilities comes from her pact with a water elemental known to a select few as Nereid. On her own, Lynn doesn't have a whole lot in the way of special talents to offer besides being a compassionate soul and having an extensively thorough knowledge of the inner workings of magic from having it drilled into her mind every day for a decade on end. She wants to help people, but on her own, there's not an awful lot she can do compared to the more fantastic sorts that populate the realms.

Enter Nereid. A water elemental with a not-insignificant amount of power in its element's domain, yet no way to leave its home on its own, for lack of a mana source to sustain it. With Lynn offering up her own mana, something she can't even use on her own, the two become a potent combination, mixing Lynn's creativity and understanding of magic with Nereid's raw power. The end result wields a powerful brand of hydrokinesis, which, while not 'part the seas' powerful, is still enough for things like allowing people to swim and breathe underwater, capitalizing on water's life-giving properties to heal people, or dropping small water tornadoes on people if she really needs to. It is not often that she needs to.

Of course, this does result in a mixing of personalities and doubling up on what they have in common, and they have some potentially problematic in large doses traits, like a hero complex -- bad enough when it's one person's worth, even more nuts when there's two. It also begs the question of how much of Lynn's personality is Lynn, and how much is Nereid...

Allies

Name Status Thoughts
Reize Seatlan Fondness (+2) "Stories tell us it's usually the protagonist's job to step in to defend a girl he met just minutes ago. I think our first meeting went the opposite way. Not that I'm complaining -- I like Reize. Bright, cheerful, awesome, a little quirky but who isn't, and noticeably more sane than some of his companions. Hope to work with him more in the future, and with any luck, I'll get to. I'm one of his Shard Seekers now, after all."
Violet Affinity (+1) "Don't know much about her, but she seems nice and sane, and she's one of Reize's friends, so I'll trust his judgement on that. I want to help her get her world back."
