Mute Beauty; Mei Yi the Lunar Princess
There once was a myth about the a goddess of chaos named Beshda. She ruled madness and mysticism and unlike many of the other deities, she refused to intermingle with humans. She thought that her power was too strong for humans to endure, therefore she never step foot upon the Earth and preferred to rule it from above...
The trickster god, Yahlin, wished to see what would happen and devised a plan to get Beshda to come to Earth. He told her that over the thousands of years that she had stayed in their divine perch above, Earth had become stronger and could now take her influence. The lie had her reconsider. For the first time, Beshda tried to mingle with humans. In the beginning, it went well; she met many people and spoke wisdom. She taught them how to worship the collection of gods and goddess and what followers should wear and behaviors they should exert if they were to follow a specific deity.
That only lasted for a little while, as the people who were exposed to Beshda slowly began to lose control of their minds. This madness consumed them and they ran wild in the forests and cities, drunk. They left all virtues of the world which Beshda tried to enforce. Like a disease, it began to infect and soon, many fell away physically, mentally and spiritually...
The sister of Beshda, Sioouh, consoled her. She was the goddess of the moon, fertility, luck and clarity. Comforting her sister, Sioouh said she would fix the problem. Using her powers, a child was blessed by Sioouh to hold a power to keep the world's mental balance. It held somewhat of a curse as well; in exchange of keeping Beshda's madness at bay, it did take away something very important to the woman which varied as time went on. Sioouh also manipulated five fates; five powerful guardians of this vessel were to meet her in some way along her life...
When the world was well again, it celebrated the woman who saved them and dubbed her "Mihyun Baelyac" or "Lunar Princess". They believed her children would also have their powers...however, Sioouh did not work that way...when the Lunar Princess would die, Sioouh would choose a female child at the same second that she would lose her life so the cycle would continue anonymous...
------------
Mei Yi is a young girl around the age of 18 who is, based on the myth of Beshda and Sioouh, is the 51st Lunar Goddess. Her curse is her born muteness. She originates from Guìyáng, a Chinese city based upon restoring the traditions of their ancestors. The clothing and customs reflect her ancient people, though stylized into modern universe..
Mei Yi's parents named her before they had her... "Sheng" means "voice", while the words "Mei Yi" means "beautiful art". Together they mean "One with a voice like beautiful artwork".
They did not expect the irony of this name. Mei Yi herself was born mute...thought she has beautiful features, she can never express herself through her voice. As she grew up, she has had to make use of chalk boards and eventually white boards to communicate. In exchange for her ability to speak, Mei Yi has developed clear and beautiful handwriting and can write in several different languages.
Mei Yi herself is kind and soft. Her actions are always polite and lady-like. Because she had failed to follow her parents's wish for her to become a famous singer, she is always wishing to please others. She is a very hard worker, but because she cannot effectively wield weapons, Mei Yi has to depend on others to be protected...

Yeah well that wouldn't bother him one bit.
You have been added to the Civilians. Yes, Civilians are (by definition) meant to role-play, but are not to be considered as battle-ready characters. In other words, people won't pick on you, generally; the most battle that your character is likely to see is some rudeness from a Villain or the like. Just, you know, if a Villain does pick on you, don't be suprised if you die after one or two hits. That's the beauty in being able to make more than one account.
By the way, how did your character get to Houcm?

As i've said before. this has potential to be a full character if you wanted it to be. But whatever you do with her is all up to you :) I like the bio and hope the rest of Sein will RP with her :)
