Méidh is a loyal and kind knight, always ready to provide help however she can. She has an open and gentle soul, basically carrying her heart on her hand. Trustworthy towards authorities and friends, she makes a faithful soldier and a great friend, who will listen and offer her whole attention to them.

Méidh also extends this trait towards strangers, regardless of their background, which leads in her being gullible. She gives her trust easily and also is overly clement and forgiving when it is broken. It is therefore easy to take advantage of her kind hearted will, since Méidh perpetually believes in the goodness of others. She genuinely thinks there is good in every person and that everyone is deserving of help and kindness. Méidh most of the times will let this pass (or be totally unaware of it), and even if she gets hurt, she tends not to learn from the experience, leaving her open to be repeatedly exploited, in the hopes it won't happen again.

She has a motherly instinct and always encourages others to do better. She likes to focus her teachings around positive feedback, emphasizing more on the improvement factor (aka ‘the knight mom’).Being overly emotional combined with her empathy and understanding towards others Méidh is highly susceptible to feelings, often getting overwhelmed by them and overstepping the boundaries between the two (understanding and feeling others pain as her own), which not rarely results in her tearing up in exhaustion.

Since she grew up in a noble circle Méidh sometimes can’t help but be concerned about her appearance not being delicate and elegant, anxiously overthinking what impression her bulky muscles and scars might make in a fine dress... She is definitely more comfortable swinging a sword around.

Although hardworking and grounded in her knighthood, Méidh has a dreamy side, liking to fantasise a lot about fairy tales and ‘happy endings’, to the point that even her friends can at times get annoyed by it. She is also fuzzy and scatter minded; forgetting things, misplacing her stuff or tripping over her words.


History:

Méidh was the last born of three siblings in a lower Nobility household in Reluir, she grew up in a friendly environment that values hard work and kindness. Due to the relatively greater age gap to her oldest sister, Eilídh, Méidh had always felt closer to her brother, Kynandh, being only six years apart from him. Méidh had a simple life in her family’s estate, of course she took classes for etiquette but being only of the Bahna-Baran rank and also owning very few lands, these weren’t as strict, so Meídh was left with enough freedom to roam the farms, the stalls with the fluffy horses and searching for delicious apple trees to 'steal' apples from.

Méidh had always looked up to her strong mother, who used to be a Paladin in Reluir’s Military, like her grandmother before her and her great-grandmother before and so on, so it wasn’t long till Méidh picked up a wooden training sword and started ‘playing knights’ with her brother.

Along with that, Méidh also regularly went to church, to help the nuns and especially for charity events and to help children in need, as Méidh loves to put a smile on other people faces and the laughter of happy people brings joy to her heart.

As soon as she was old enough to join the Relan Military, Méidh enlisted and became a squire, showing proficiency in the Paladin path. She steadily climbed up the ranks till she reached the higher closed circle of the Royal Knights of the Queen's Military. Now already counting as an old veteran in the military, she also takes on new squires to mentor.

Current:

Attended Bells and Blossom of the Princess with her family, probably danced with her brother. Also she was very happy seeing the Princess in such a lovely dress.

Called to arms for the Possession of Iadlain, Méidh of course was in the front lines of the fight. Méidh sustained a severe wound, nearly facing death, leaving her stomach scarred deeply. It took her a long time afterwards to recover again. Méidh feels, like the rest of the population, betrayed by Princess Lorna’s escape, not comprehending how one can leave their people in need.

Méidh is deeply worried by the Firefall attack in Koben, hearing stories from the Adarbene poison. How cruel, who would want that…

When the huge headless monster was summoned in the Ambition of the Queen, Méidh had little time to wander in the wispwoods to collect shards, being busy protecting the population from the attacking wraiths and keeping families and children save.

Seeing the magic light fade from Reluir’s Mana Crystals, Unravelling what the parting of the headless monster had done, was a sad moment…

Méidh is concerned about her country and the people living in it, she fears what might come next, but is ready to fight whoever threatens the peaceful lives of her fellow citizens...

Additional:

  • loves apples, apple turnovers, apple pies, baked apples…. just anything with apples

  • she likes to sing/hum and listen to music ( voice sample 1, voice sample 2, voice sample 3 )

  • she likes horses, owns a horse named Apl

  • uses Shield and Sword 

  • believes in fairytales and also fairies~(to some extent)


Relationships:

Family (NPCs):

Aílsa Learrach - 385 years; Paladin
Mother, current Bhana-Baran
Once a Paladin amongst the Relan Military, Méidh had always looked up to her.  She is one of her big inspirations, and even after her mother got injured and now can no longer walk correctly without a stick, she still remains Méidh’s hero~

Colvin (MacBrytaich) Learrach - 390 years; Knight
Father; current Baran.
As opposed to most nobles Méidh’s father liked to help out on the fields, being in closer contact with his servitude and farmers. He is especially proud of a small apple tree plantation he had helped his workers to set up. Maybe it is from him that Méidh has her love for apples.

Eilìdh Learrach - 320 years; Fighter
oldest Sister; next in line for Bhana-Baran
Although initially showing interest in the knighthood Eilídh later on decided to dedicate herself to the Family’s estate and lands, which she later would take over from her parents. Méidh has a rather distant relationship with her, due to the age gap and also because of their different interests and very different demeanours, with Eilídh being much more reserved and serious compared to Méidh’s cheerful nature. Eilídh will always be a beauty Méidh admires from afar with respect.
            Married to Ivor (Sutherlan) Learrach - 325 years; Wizard 

Kynandh Learrach  - 280 years; Champion
older Brother; Baran > Ridir (Ridir Kynandh or Sir Kynandh)
With only 6 years of age difference Kynandh and Méidh were pretty close as children. They often played together, imagining themselves as fearless knights in the future and caused some trouble here and there in their homes, going out on ‘secret’ rides and climbing trees and sneaking out on the lands and market streets. As they grew up though with education and increasing responsibilities they started drifting apart. Kynandh became more grumpy and serious whilst Méidh retained her inner child.


Player Characters/NPCs:

Sen Ceannox
Méidh met Sen when they were both just children, both showing interest in fighting and swords and have been close friends ever since. Sen is the one and most dearest friend to Méidh. They both took motivation and inspiration from each other and they always pushed each other forward in their training to become Royal Knights. Méidh thinks Sen is an extremely strong person, with a  soft heart. Needless to say they both have been through many funny and complicated situations together and Sen will always be the first person Méidh approaches for literally anything.

Esme Ó Súileabháin
Méidh knows Esme (child Esme~) through his mother, Catriona Ó Súileabháin, who had been a Champion in Reluir’s Military, way back when Méidh was still just a Knight. They occasionally had sparred together and Catriona had taught Méidh a few tricks with the sword. Méidh looked up to her and wished she could be on par with her someday. Catriona’s death was a very sad moment, having lost a nice and strong women, her lost was felt throughout the ranks.
Esme, now having grown to be a Knight himself,  sometimes spars with Méidh. And Méidh tries to help him along the way to become an exceptional Paladin! She knows he has a great future and believes he can become strong. Méidh will support him however she can and wants to protect his gentle soul. Often they both get overwhelmed by feelings, partly because Méidh is very empathic (so it is not unusual that she starts crying after he cries….)

Gisal Gill'Iosa
Gisal is a nun at a local church, which Méidh stops by, tagging along Sen to help around. Méidh loves Gisal’s apple turnovers and usually asks her every time if she still has some around.
