Machina Amaedeus
Main Information;; The Known
xx Nicknames
Amy, Mach, whatever else comes off the top of people's heads. xx Age / Birthday
Twenty-four in early summer xx Gender
Female xx Kingdom / Providence
Somniis Kingdom xx Occupation
4th Maiden, Maiden of Spirit xx Society / Group
The Maidens xx Rank/Class
Holy Maiden xx Weapons
Machina doesn't really like weapons but out of the necessity of having to look important in front of people she wields a black wood staff the curls at the top. It serves as a good lamp post-holder thing too. xx Magic
Hypnosis; Probably her most used ability. With a even control on a single point (usually her finger), she can usually hypnotize people into falling asleep by touching their heads. Useful for keeping the peace or give someone a better rest at night.Dream Eater; Her main offensive and intellect gathering attack; by focusing her hands on someone's forhead she can steal the dreams (or rather the energy) from a sleeping target. A side effect from this is that she usually sometimes absorbs the dreams of memories which will often lead her to keep dreaming those memories for a while.
Nightmare; Her most cursed magic and one that she has never used willfully; an offensive spell to do exactly as the name indicates. Its going to give people nightmares that range from however deep the emotional scars are that people hold. She can't control this magic in the slightest and does her best just to seal it away so that it can never plague anyone. Like Dream Eater, physical contact on the forehead is needed to accurately transmit the nightmare. Otherwise if it goes berserk is can be sent to any sleeping person within a twenty-foot radius.
The Mirror Room
xx Face Claim
96Neko from Nico Nico Singer xx Appearance
Machina has an ordinary look about as far as physical looks go. She stands at a lithe five foot-seven, being more on the taller side; along with thin agile limbs. Her hair is cut short with a ponytail to tie up the longer, loose ends. Lightly tanned skin shows nicely with her bright blond hair and red colored eyes. She has a rather ordinary look about her (minus her tall height) and more red than brown eyes. For clothing, it varies drastically. From one moment she be wearing the traditional robes of the maidens and the next she'll be seen in some dark outfit consisting of boots, leather tunics, and always a black long coat which reaches past her knees. Sometimes thanks to her unique tastes, Machina will wear a variety of jewelry involving chains or earrings. It doesn't seem ethical for someone who is supposed to be pure and untouched to stab slabs of metal into her body though so she makes sure to keep her ears hidden with 'inside' company; of course taking off the chain is an obvious too.
Open and Public
xx Personality
Machina isn't too different between the companies she may keep. For the masses she'll be sure to act all fancy and delicate-like but otherwise she can't hide too much else of her personality. For one, she has always been rather... unique, to say. She has a mind that sometimes can't tell dreams from reality. If she's not having an episode about some totally unrealistic thing then she'll be off somewhere, randomly walking around or staring at something. She can stay like that for a pretty long time depending on how sleep-deprived she is. On that note Machina doesn't tend to sleep much because she gets some very strange dreams. Strange like nightmares that she can never remember or paradises which end all too quickly. People probably know this too which would explain why most think her absolutely nuts when they talk to her.If she isn't wandering around or staring at a something in the temples when she is 'sane', you'd most likely find Machina out near the sea tracing little swirls in the water. Its not that she's unsocial, its just that the girl has a lot on her mind. Whether its from lack of sleep or the fact where she swears she can hear voices, Machina tries to stick as close to the unpopulated areas as possible in order to sort out all of the... noise. At times even she thinks she's insane. It wouldn't surprise anyone if they caught her talking to herself, which actually happens more often than not sadly. And no, she's not talking to her soul pokemon but rather to the 'voices in her head'. Of course she'd claim that she's perfectly normal, that its all natural and that everyone else is the insane one.
Now between social and anti-social its more of a matter of perspective really. To her even if people blabber away their real intentions aren't as clear as day like their actions always sound. She really does like to be around others, truly; its just that sometimes she just doesn't understand that the voice she's hearing isn't actually from the other person. In the end it just because a hassle. A hassle and a mess, one that the girl is far too bummed out about to clean up. But she still tries, sometimes even settling for just being near another.
Now for the one big question that everyone will ask sooner or later, does she bite? Many might think yes because of her little episodes and it doesn't help that the girl talks in nonsense riddles half the time; but no she does not. Machina is by far a lover rather than a fighter, she couldn't even handle a simple scolding. (More like if she got mad she'd just swing her stick around like a maniac.) Though one thing that people would never expect from a first meeting is that the girl is a singer, a hummer; of sorts. She has a lovely voice too so its not all 'squeaks and squawks' as she might put it. Soothing noises often help calm the frenzy that tickles her brain. That and keeping her hands busy. Proof of that is her jewelry, she made each bit after... um, -following a metal smith around. At times she even makes gifts for people out of whatever she may find her or there. So she is rather friendly despite what people may think.
Now she isn't a complete saint when it comes to trying to make her angry. For the most part she can just look at people like their weird or something if they really are trying to get her mad. It would be like nothing could set her off, break that string that holds her mind together. Almost nothing. Almost. She's fine if people call her a nut or a golden apple, but if anyone were to put her and the name 'Darkrai' in the same sentence. She'd freak. Short and simple. If she's not trying to beat the life out of someone then she's definitely making their life hell. She's has a definite paranoia about Darkrai, no ifs about it.
The Secret Side of Me
xx Greatest Secret
She thinks that she is actually the spawn of Darkrai thanks to the magic she is able to use and curses her existence. She's terrified of what might happen if someone figured out her little secret. xx Greatest Fear
That she might actually be really insane and loses whatever sense of humanity or sanity that she may actually have left. At times she thinks its Darkrai himself who is twiddling with her mind. xx Greatest Desire
Honestly, she just wants to figure out who it was who gave her the gift or curse to be able to hear things no one else does. Out of This World
xx Pokemon
Now usually someone wouldn't be happy to have a pokemon known for its malicious tricks to be their other half. Machina was ecstatic to meet her second soul, a Gengar she named Duran. He's actually not so much a trickster as the rumors may say; being more of the calm, unnaturally knowledgeable type. Their bond is stronger than reinforced iron which allows Duran to lend her his strength while she still looks nearly all human. The only thing that shows her Gijinka form are a pair of triangular ears, a short tail, and her hair turns purple. This is His-story
xx History
Before Machina was born, the lives of her parents weren't very much of the interesting sort. Her mother was a healer, a priestess of Cresselia; and her father. Well, he was unimportant. Unlike some families or more like other families, Machina's mother didn't have only one partner. She wasn't particularly old nor did she have any real ambition but instead her whole goal was to somehow 'leave her mark in the world' or at least create another link in the chain. Her mother's first partner, she had refused to consider them anything else than tools; was a willing one despite his 'partner's' mindset. What his background was, she didn't care; she chose him on his looks and for her 'intuition' that she would get daughters from him. Her goal was at least two daughter in case one of them might... expire. Alas it was as if Karma or fate itself denied her of her wishes, leaving her first two pregnancies with stillborn. A third looked promising but also ended in a horrid sickness which killed the child shortly after birth. By the way, the third was a daughter. After the third her mother swore that it was the dark god who was tormenting her into a twisted illusion which left her first partner fearing for his life. On the fourth pregnancy, it went smoothly but only to end up as a son.
Being a Somniis woman, she was enraged. Nearly killing her first living child if her partner had not stolen him away and ran. In the end she did not pursue but only wrote it off as the gods' malice towards her. Thinking she had not done enough for the goddess, Machina's mother went to the temples so often that it was like she lived there herself. That was when she met her second partner, in front of a Cresselia temple. Taking that as a sign, she charged.
The second partner was not so willing like the first. He was considerably younger and already had his eyes on his unrequited love which left him as her prey. For a second time she would not allow herself to be disgraced again. Thankfully her former partner had not spread some rumor about her but even still the second was absolutely terrified of her. But nevertheless, he would gift her a daughter. And that he did. For Machina was born shortly after the marriage. This time a healthy, bright daughter who became the jewel of her mother's life. Oh how she babied and pampered her daughter, even more when there were no others to follow after the girl's birth. She made sure that there was absolutely nothing that could possibly tamper with her child's fate, welfare, or any of the above. The woman was a Luxray and not only in soul.
Like some other daughters of Somniis, Machina grew up with everything. Her mother's love, her father's attention, presents; everything. Everything except for the ability to venture outside. She was never allowed to play for fear of injury, never allowed to speak without her mother for fear of others kidnapping her; her mother was a paranoid shamble. But at the age of eight is when it hit her mother hard. The result of always being alone. Machina was talking to herself. She had done that when she was child quite often so her mother always wrote it off as the girl playing by herself. But now it was just becoming... creepy. In the middle of the night she would hear her daughter giggle and talk to herself in her room while she and the girl's father were in the other. There was no one else in the house. For the longest time she tried to write it off. All the way, encouraging her daughter that she was indeed normal even after neighbors and others began to question the child's sanity.
But it was getting worse. She had never told the child that had an elder brother so she couldn't possibly have been imagining him. The child had no friends (or none that the mother could see anyway). Reputation was the only chain that kept her from seeking help from the goddess. She feared what might happen if they found her mad. Her fears stuck hard, making her even more paranoid whenever she had to go out with or without Machina in tow. By the time of the girl's ceremony, her mother was all needles.
At the slightest note that she hinted she wasn't talking to them her mother would intervene and say that the girl was merely nervous and practicing for what it would be like to have a soul pokemon. Thankfully the story was bought but the priestess who held the ceremony wasn't quite so sure. It continued and finished without a hitch. When Machina awoke she could remember very little about her dream, only that she awoke with her second soul and an unusual occurrence. Cresselia had come to her, blessing her. Machina being Machina didn't know the meaning of not sharing which led her to becoming the Fourth, Maiden of Spirit.
