Medic Rian'ala “Melody” Hulut Llamnel is a player character played by Elissia.

Preferred Plots:

1. YCS Bastion of Winter

Melody stands at roughly 5'8“ in her day-to-day life, though she can add a few more inches in height due to the quirks of her bonded animal. Her silvery white hair falls almost to her shoulderblades, and she tends to keep it dyed with streaks of greens, reds, purples, and blues. The most common hairstyle to see her with is a tight braid. Her ears are longer than normal and tapered, ending in the telltale triple points of the Llamnel. Her eyes are also a shade of gold common amongst the Lorath.

She's quite pale by genetic lottery, but she displays the barest hint of a tan due to the amount of time she spent outdoors. Her body is well-toned and lithe, owing to the amount of physical labor demanded of her. In tight enough clothes her gentle curves are more noticable, though she rarely seems to show this off.

Sprouting from her shoulderblades are a pair of black-feathered wings of a moderate size, which she keeps close against her back most of the time. She is almost never without the ears and tail of her bonded tairolen, both a sandy brown with white tips. Her voice is easy on the ear and many would describe it as “vaguely musical.”

While Melody maintains a fairly upbeat attitude for the most part, she will have occasional quiet periods from time to time. She's usually quite open on a surface level, but seems to prefer keeping most people at arm's length. While not much of a social butterfly, she generally manages to integrate herself fairly well in most groups she finds herself in.

She tends to get wrapped up in her work and forget trivial details like “eating and sleeping” in favor of working with any patient that ends up at her door. She's very slow to anger, unless it's due to someone intentionally endangering their health or that of someone else. Overall though, she tries her best to be kind to anyone she meets.

Melody Llamnel was born in BYE 07 to a rather unassuming family. As the second eldest child, she would get plenty of experience wrangling her younger siblings and helping bandage up a multitude of scrapes, cuts, and the occasional bite. Her family's large size gave her plenty of opportunity to learn to care for children and perform many household chores. She was taught early to be as kind to others as she could.

It wasn't until a seemingly chance encounter with a local tairolen that Melody would find herself spending much of her free time outdoors, climbing trees and playing with the local wildlife. She would eventually bond with one tairolen with sandy brown fur who would become her (thus far) lifelong companion.

After coming of age, Melody started attending more formal schooling for medical training with a minor in xenobiology, first on Lor, and the later on Nyli III. She took to medical school extremely well, never minding the hours or difficulty. She would eventually put her xenobiology degree on hold so she could take on even more classes for her future medical career. She would graduate with high marks and spent her residency at a rather small local hospital treating mostly common maladies for the civilian populace. She stayed on with the hospital until the beginning of the Second Lorath Exodus.

Upon learning that she would be forced to leave her home for the second time, she began to think long and hard about splitting off from the Matriarchy entirely. The decision didn't come easily as it meant leaving nearly all of her family behind. Eventually she would choose to stay, in hopes that she would be able to find some sort of stability in her life while also putting her medical degree to use. She would leave shortly before the events of Project Checkout and make her way to the Jiyuu System, where she would attempt to put down roots. She would work there as a doctor wherever she could while also finishing her degree in xenobiology.

Melody Llamnel has the following notable skills:

Physical: Members of the Llamnel house are expected to maintain their physical strength and stamina, they must be able to run, walk, climb, or swim for an extended amount of time. Melody is also strong enough to lift and carry patients should the need arise.

Art and Vocations: Llamnels are expected to be able to construct their own clothes, bags, and other goods. They are expected to make these goods with a high enough quality to be considered the work of an experienced artisan.

Knowledge: Members of the Llamnel house are expected to know of the bulk of written and verbally passed down information of the Lorath race; Llamnels are also expected to be able to recall information about plant life and animal life.

Biology: Llamnel Lorath are expected to learn as much as possible about biology. In Melody's case, this manifested more in a desire to learn about medical applications more than anything else, though she would eventually grow to enjoy her xenobiology courses almost as much as medical school.

Domestic: Having multiple younger siblings gave Melody ample practice taking care of small children and many household chores.

Medical and Science: Melody has completed medical school with high marks and finished her residency in a local teaching hospital.
