Name: Meril Lorayan
AKAs:
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Race: Shifter
Deity: Claire
Description: Meril is a rather average-sized girl at 5'4" with vivid red hair, brown eyes and pale skin. She has a slender frame brought on by meagre living but not so thin as to indicate starvation. She dresses rather simply, usually in the robes of her order with a belt about her waist to which she has attached a few pouches.
Family: Her mother and two younger siblings
Allegiances: Priestesses of Claire
Personality:
Biography: Meryl was born as the oldest daughter of three to a Shifter priestess of Claire and her husband deep within a middle class area of Cadena, a rather fortunate position thanks to the living provided by the church but also due to her father's role as a clerk.
From an early age she was provided with the means to learn, first how to read and write but then to learn things like arithmetic. However, she also knew early on that she was expected to follow her mother into the church. Even though at that time she couldn't have explained why it wasn't something she found terribly disagreeable. She revelled in the idea of helping others, likely why her parents had suggested it in the first place.
When she was still quite young a plague swept through Estrin, killing many and even wiping out families. By some fortune the members of her own family were spared.
As soon as she was old enough she began to accompany her mother to help out with her various duties, though did not begin helping out with her midwifery until she was a teenager. She saw many joyous births as well as some not-so-joyous outcomes which helped steel her for the reality of the role she would one day be expected to undertake. At the age of sixteen she formally joined the church and began training for the day she would take those duties up herself.
Equipment: Three pouches varying equipment tied to her belt along with her coinpurse.
Weapons: Staff
Magic:
Unique Abilities: Can shift into the form of a cat
