IN CHARACTER

Character Name: Airy Miller
Played-By/Art Claim: Danielle Campbell

In-Game Tattoo Placement: Top center of her back.
Current Health/Status: Alive & Asleep.
Apparent Age: 21
Actual Age: 21
Species: The Creator. She looks completely human but she doesn't age normally. Airy's bloodline traces back to God's and is angelic in its nature but it is so diluted that it doesn't mark her very well. Anyone who can sense a pure soul might notice that Airy is more than she appears. This makes her poisonous to those who feed on human life; i.e. blood, souls, etc.

Random Note: I do have more information about Airy's personality and History. I attempted to make the story concise and not too long winded but please let me know if you would like elaboration on any vague statements, personality traits or history.

History:

Airy's world is very much like the real world, set in the year 2016. She grew up having a normal life in the small town of Island Falls, Maine. The population of which is just over 2,000 people. She never wanted very much: going to school, hanging out with her friends and eventually she had her eyes set on college. Her mother worked from home as a software engineer who was also known as being the energetic craft mom and a swing dance teacher on weekends. Her father worked at the local hardware store and loved sports and beer. Her younger brother was a nightmare, as younger brothers ought to be. He was into comics, specifically Green Lantern and Justice League, and was practicing to one day join the high school football.

Airy's best friend since childhood was her neighbor Mark. They grew up together and spent a lot of their childhood in each other's company. Her other best friend is Sara who Airy met her freshman year of high school. They got close after Sara and Mark started dating. Everything was relatively normal. After high school Airy took a year off before college; she had applications written up and sent out to a few key universities but she wasn't in a rush. She had a plan and she'd take her time but she was going to stick to it.

Airy is known as the Creator. It's someone who can create something out of nothing but only to the limit of her own imagination. Her powers first began to develop after she hit puberty; 14. Her desire to be normal dwarfed their effects making them harder to notice until she was older; 16. Her mother noticed around this time as did her best friend Mark however, any mention of something weird, Airy would deny. Most of her accidents were so fleeting that those who saw them assumed that it was all in their head or the ghost out of the corner of your eyes.

She was 19 when there was an accident that convinced her to leave home.

An accident, in which she severally hurt her best friend Mark, made her come to the conclusion that she was too dangerous. She ran away from home. Airy convinced herself that it'd be better if everyone forgot her and without knowing it she made the little town of Island Falls Maine forget that she ever existed. This made those living in the town unable to perceive pictures of Airy as well as things that were hers; such as her bed room door would appear as a wall to anyone looking at it. The only person this didn’t affect was a boy from her high school, Darren, who was eventually put under psychiatric study due to Airy's carelessness.

She ended up in New York City about a month later where she met a vampire in hiding named Antonio. Interested about her powers and her lack of control he offered to help her. She stays with Antonio, and his roommate Nathan, for a little over three months. During this time she's found by a radical group of super natural creatures known as the Hidden who are working to gather power so they can come out of hiding and take their place at the top of the top of the food chain.

The society of the Hidden works in tandem to the normal world. This is a world with monsters, vampires, werewolves and magic. It is a closely guarded secret that Airy was accidently thrust into without much warning. She doesn't know very much about it due to her canon point however each race has its own background and story. Airy was drawn into this world due to her own powers earning her the title Creator. More about the races of the Hidden can be found HERE.

While she lived in New York, Airy had no idea that anyone is looking for her.

When she is found by this group, who I have affectionately named the evil-side, she is lured in by the boy from her high school; Darren.

As stated above, when Airy first ran away from home she convinced herself that it'd be better if no one knew she existed. By doing so she erased all evidence of herself from Island Falls Maine. This is the reason her family and friends didn't go looking for her after she ran away. However, when accidentally directed, her powers can't affect someone with a strong mind. Darren, who later learns that he's a mage, isn't affected and the small town condemns him for being 'crazy' whenever he talked about the Miller girl who disappeared. He blames Airy for ruining his life and is determined to ruin hers in return.

She is taken and tortured for the next month and a half while Nathan and Antonio are trying to find her. Please note that the below has the standard torture warnings, please don't continue reading if you are sensitive to mind alteration, abuse, physical mutilation, blood, etc.

Antonio's father, Amadeus, is the head of the evil-side that has taken residence within the state of New York. Amadeus hates humanity and the Creator and wants to see the world burn because of it. He is very short sighted in his goals. In order to use Airy Amadeus needs to break her. He summons a mind-bender named Taila to come and tear apart every thought she's ever had. Mind-benders are a race that are descents of the Fea and humans, there are many types though they are all very rare, Taila can specifically go into someone's mind and sort through it without difficulty.

While Airy is captive they have to control her Creator abilities. To do this they use a shock collar which is turned on at random times throughout the day and night. They also strictly control her eating and sleeping schedules. Her torture spans to about 6 weeks during this length of time she is bitten by a vampire, learning that her blood poisonous to vampires. Airy is also forced to swallow an acid that strips her throat and steals her voice. The whole process is painful at first and then numbing. It's reinforced that she's a mistake, someone who was never meant to exist, and she begins to believe it as Taila slowly breaks her down. Taila's goal involves going through every one of Airy's memories. Some are lost while others are buried.

While Airy is in captivity, Nathan and Antonio work tirelessly to find her. They discover the Headquarters of what constitutes the resistance against Amadeus. They believe that Amadeus's goal is to destroy a leyline, using Airy to complete this task. Leyline's are points of power through the planet. Within this canon they are like the planets veins.

For the first two weeks of Airy's capture she is able to imagine a bird flying around Nathan's head but Airy isn't able to give them more of a clue to where she is. They are only able to find her after she's been broken by Amadeus and he's moving her to the location of the leyline.

The leyline is located in a cave around upstate New York. A team from the resistance is sent to rescue Airy. This team consists of mages, two vampires, 1 werewolf and Nathan. As they arrive Nathan rushes inside before anyone else can follow him. He is able to find easily Airy at the center of the cave and rescue her. There are few casualties on the rescue team's side and after sorting out what happened the group takes Airy's unconscious body back to HQ.

Airy's healing process takes a little over a month. They heal her throat and her mind while placing shields around her head. Her first week after being healed she clings to Antonio. Nathan left when she was in a coma, during healing, to train and later joins the resistance over a year later. This is when Airy learns that there is a very hidden big war going on that the either world doesn't know about.

Finding comfort in HQ is difficult. People call Airy the Creator and treat her as if she's the answer to all of their problems. She doesn't like it, added to the fact that all of HQ is underground. It's too much to adjust too all at once. Shortly after healing, Airy leaves a note for Antonio and runs away. Except this time she's running back home where she believes that everything will be okay.

Airy managed to purchase a bus ticking using one of Antonio's credit cards and then slips away from HQ at dawn. The one werewolf living in HQ, the cook Gus, is the one who finds out Airy's plan and follows her. Airy doesn't know Gus except that he's affiliated with the resistance and an old friend of Nathans.

Gus convinced her to talk to him and he tells her that her family died after she had been captured. They agree to go see her home and then return to HQ. When Airy returns to her home she realizes how unstable her powers are and that she needs to master them or risk hurting others.

After Airy's runaway attempt she isn't allowed to leave HQ by herself. She ends up working in the kitchen with Gus a few mornings a week in between training with a handful of people who live in HQ. She learns about her powers though she doesn't actually know how to control them. She dates one of the guys there for about six months, using him as an emotional crutch through her healing process before admitting to him that she has no feelings for him beyond friendship. During her stay with this resistance she takes a trip to Rome and finds a tomb that details the life of the last Creator who in the Bible was known as Mary. A year passes in HQ before Nathan returns and Airy in that year, becomes a key member of the resistance.

Hometown/World:

Airy's world is very much like the real world, set in the year 2016. There are werewolves as well as other wer's, roughly 9 vampires left in the world, mages and a handful of other species and races. All of these races are hidden and called the Hidden because it's an easy to remember title. They were very hard to remain unseen in the world and do a good job of it. The war that is taking place is a fight to change that but any regular person wouldn't know what was going on.

Personality:

Airy is enthusiastic and interested in many different things. She loves writing and seeing the world through her own personal window. She loves people and learning but more than anything in the world. She has always wanted to be normal. She saw people, mostly through high school, who want to be weird or claimed to be different but it wasn't a sentiment that she understood. She envied those who could blend into the crowd or go unnoticed. This is one of the driving desires in Airy's life, it is also the reason it took so long for her powers to be noticed. Airy is very susceptible to her abilities and the power of self-delusion which has stunted her own emotional growth.

She loves small talk, specifically talking about the weather. She can talk in depth about weather patterns and atmospheric data. It's something that everyone has in common which was why she uses it as a topic of conversation among those she just met. She's very personable, having grown up in a town where everyone knows everyone, and she doesn't understand not knowing your neighbors. Airy received a culture shock after arriving in New York when she found out that Antonio, and his roommate Nathan, didn't know the person they've lived next door to for the last 3 years.

Airy also loves food; cherry coke, fun dip and breakfast are some of her favorites. She is very passionate about food, not cooking as much as eating. It's something else that people generally have in common making it an easy topic for Airy to default to. She ran into difficulty after meeting Antonio, because he's a vampire and doesn't technically eat, but even then they would talk about drinks and other things that Antonio liked.

Most of her hobbies involve being outside like cloud watching and sports. She likes reading which she also usually does outside. She likes feeling connected with the world around her.

Airy is bad at drawing, math and science's, but she isn't afraid of failing or trying. She's bad at paying attention to things around her and she can't tell if people are lying. Airy has the tendency to trust people, even when she really shouldn't. She likes to give others the benefit of the doubt which was something that her mother had taught her when she was very young. She tries hard at everything she does and even if she has good intentions, her efforts sometimes backfire horribly.

One of Airy's greatest abilities but also one of her most detrimental is that she's very empathetic towards others. Airy also feels everything with all of her heart which helps her understand others but also hurts her. She'll reach out in the name of helping someone and accidentally hurt those she cares the most for. Even if she can see something she can't always understand it having no basis of comparison herself. She's sheltered and has only begun to learn about the gray areas in life.

She can't always see things as they are and she's very dense, taking a very blunt person to sit her down and explain it to her. She'll make the same mistake over and over believing in something that might not be true. It takes a long time for Airy to finally learn a lesson and she ends up feeling guilt or regret over her decisions.

Airy tries to be polite and honest with people but bad news will make her feel awkward, unsure and at times second guess herself. Airy isn't a very good liar and often wears her emotions out for all to see. She has very traditional point of views but is slowly opening up to learning about the world around her.

She's scared of her abilities and constantly putting on a smile while fighting a war inside of herself. She denies part of herself and runs or hides behind others because she doesn't feel like she has the strength to stand on her own. Airy can be stubborn in certain situations, like if a friend is in trouble or its something she really believes in, but there is a constant struggle of self-doubt gnawing at her.

Airy loves music and music is one of the few ways she's able to calm her thoughts and focus. She stays up to date with all music and has some songs on her phone which she almost always keeps with her. She learned to play the violin in elementary school, thanks to the public school systems, and kept up the instrument since. Practicing helps her relax and think. Music is another way that she feels that people are connected, even if it isn’t something they might have heard or experienced before.

Airy is very optimistic. She doesn't want to give up easily which is why she tries to think of new ways to approach a situation. She dislikes violence and goes through ridiculous lengths to avoid it. She isn't weak but she is unpracticed and she doesn't want to hurt others. She over compensates for the parts about herself that she can't face and doesn't like by being overly optimistic.

She's very cute and easily excitable though she doesn't see these qualities in herself. She's easily embarrassed and not good at accepting praise. There are a lot of situations that she hasn't encountered before and while she'll try to see them through another’s point of view she'll still turn red and feel a little uncomfortable or awkward while doing so.

Personal Moral Codes:

Airy has a very innocent moral code.

She doesn't like killing but, after spending a year and a half in the middle of a war, she realizes the value in defense. She won't go out of her way to hurt anyone and from her current canon point has yet to kill anyone but she will freely defend herself and kill someone if there is no other way around it.

Airy grew up going to church every Sunday and listening to the word of God though she's open to other religions and interpretations. She believes that religion is like History, where details are lost or changed over time. This means that no one is right or wrong but that people could learn from the different stories, whatever they happen to be, in order to treat each other better. She believes in God and will continue to go to church if it is an option. If not she has her private practices though she's stopped praying before meals.

She has a lot of hope in people and always gives them the benefit of the doubt. Airy believes that there is good in everyone, even if they sometimes don't see it themselves. She's hopeful and doesn't lose heart, no matter what she goes through. She'll go to great lengths in order to make people smile or do something nice for them. Even if it's a small gesture, Airy believes that it can help on a large scale. Her point of view often belittles her age or her experiences but Airy doesn't care. She'll stick by the things she believes in.

Insecurities/Personal Demons:

Insecurity is Airy's middle name.

She's more confident now than when she'd first run away from home but she overly values the opinions of others, even strangers, and strives to be a normal human being which is physically impossible for her. She's yet to accept herself and her powers which constantly stunt her emotional growth. In short, Airy hates herself. She has the tendency to take random blame and lives with the guilt of killing her family as well as being unable to protect her friends.

Airy is afraid of being left behind after finding that Nathan left her in the middle of a resistance organization where she only knew one other person and she hates being a cosmic symbol of hope for people she's never met. The weight of what a Creator is and supposed to do crushes her but she doesn't have the heart to tell people that she won't help them.

This leads Airy into being very susceptible to cruel words and easily manipulated. She falls into her dark trains of thought and has nearly made herself disappear in canon using her powers. Since then she tries to be careful and not get to sad but it'll happen from time to time and make her susceptible to deviant behavior.

Airy's biggest regret is never saying goodbye to her family before running away.

Abilities/Powers/Weaknesses:

Airy's basic normal skills include: Good at following directions and filling in the blanks, Swing Dancing, Singing, Being Polite and Playing the violin. Most things she can do only to an average skill level. She has a natural talent with baking and cooking but she's yet to learn anything beyond what's in her mother's cookbook.

She is over powered but Airy has very specific limitations, most of which are set by her own mind. The powers of a creator are just as the title suggests. She's able to imagine something and create it in front of her. It is easy for her to do this by accident, which happens when her mind wanders, but very hard to do on purpose. She has to understand how something words and be able to imagine its parts. If she over complicates it then she might not be able to imagine it and if she oversimplifies it then what she imagines might not work as intended.

Everything she imagines follows the laws that are set in her thoughts. Airy limits her own imagination with what she knows and what she's been taught. She cannot affect anything that's more than a small city radius without help and all of her creations will smell or appear off to those with heightened senses. Since Airy's brain can't understand the way a dog might smell an object, she can't fool a dog with an object that she's created. More about Creators are HERE.

If she stops thinking about her creations they disappear. Her creations don't have a mind of their own.

It's important to note that while she can't do a lot to other people, more so to those aware of what she is and what she can do. She is able to hurt herself with her own powers. She also the power to make herself disappear, alter her own memories and change things about her own biology. Depressive tendencies will be Airy's down fall if she isn't careful.

Another trait of the Creator is that she is poisonous to creatures that feed on life. For example: a vampire would be burned by her blood if they drink it, energy taken from her by a succubus or other creature will weaken them instead of strengthen them. Those who can feel magical energies will be able to note that Airy is different than normal but they won’t be able to figure out how without tests. Airy isn't completely human. There is a mutation in her DNA that causes her to be the Creator; it is a genetic trait that is passed through bloodlines.

If more clarification is needed please let me know.

Ability/Power/Magic Warping:

For the purpose of this game and power limitations, Airy will only able to create things that are basic or familiar to her and they have to fit in a small radius, like a yard or so. The only exception to this will be alterations to the weather and shields. Both of these she does a lot in canon and can likely span an area of a couple yards.

Her creations will sometimes fail in Deerington and flicker out of existence like the static in an old TV without warning. She will be able to hold images for half the time on average or sometimes be too frantic to imagine anything at all.

The only power that I think shouldn't be dwarfed are the effects she has on herself. Technically, if it's a dream, her powers would be stronger, so I assume her sense of self will be stronger. Since these are mostly negative effects, I think it'd be fun to play with them and freak Airy out. Like, if she doesn't want to be seen and accidently makes her invisible for a few hours… that amuses me to no end and I think it'd be fun to have her talk to people while trying to turn herself visible again. This would vary greatly on the situation though, so let me know if that's too much.

Please let me know if her powers need to be warped or weakened more. They read a lot more broken than they are because Airy doesn't know enough stuff to make and she generally picks up things from what's around her.

She also has protective mental shields and stuff in her head. These will be gone when she enters Deerington because it's no fun having those.

Are you comfortable with prominent elements of fourth-walling?: Yeah.

What themes of horror/psychological thrillers do you enjoy the most?:

I enjoy all aspects of horror and thrillers but my favorite part is being able to see how characters develop and what they do when placed under extreme or stressful situations. Airy is very malleable and will be greatly affected by those she comes in contact with and the setting. She'll want to help people and likely get involved with FEAR. She'll put herself out there and expect nothing in return.

She is the complete opposite of my other muse currently in game and I look forward to seeing how she affects the world differently and what she does. Airy will also stick her nose where it doesn't belong which is always fun. I look forward to getting her in a lot of trouble or awkward situations.

Is there anything in particular you absolutely need specific content warnings for?: No. I would like content warnings on things so I know what I'm pulling up but I don't need content warnings for comfort.

Additional Information:

Nothing comes to mind. Airy is my most fleshed out Original Character so I apologize if it seems like a bit much. I do have a lot of the characters in her canon fleshed out and I play them as well, so I am happy to answer any and all questions about Airy or her canon. The information is spread out between a few journals though. I do have a rough copy of Airy's torture and other scenes in her canon written out. They are all very rough and need massive edits. I was going to legitimately write up this story which is why all the information is all over the place.
