Profile
the long-lost
Just a sweet girl who wants to garden and work at an apothecary, swept up in a whirlwind of fate and other worlds. Quite frankly, she's not up for the task, but she'll try her best.
MYSIE GEIGER
she/her • neutral good • ~20
⬇ THE MEAT ⬇
🌼 APPEARANCE
- Short (5'1").
- Long flowy green hair, typically down to her tailbone. Sometimes it's shorter, down to her shoulders, or even shorter if she's feeling adventurous.
- Left eye is reddish, right eye is bluish (your left/right).
- Freckles cover face, shoulders, forearms, legs, and belly. Freckles are very prominent.
🌼 PERSONALITY
Most of Mysie's issues stem from her upbringing at the orphanage, spending most of her life alone to her own devices, getting attention for being one of the smartest kids at the orphanage, which fed her ego and gave her a bit of a complex.
- Gentle and soft-spoken, comes across as helpless and vulnerable. Varyingly true or untrue depending on how much power she has.
- Timid, spineless. Afraid to face anything that's the consequences of her own actions.
- Academically very smart and knowledgeable. Balanced out by the fact that she can be a bit of a know-it-all.
- Very shy and nervous. Doesn't know how to talk to people without stuttering and getting embarrassed.
- Kind and well-meaning, too soft-hearted for her own good. Makes her a bit self-righteous about it. Sometimes gets her in trouble.
🌼 HISTORY
History is fickle and not set in stone (for now). Her dad is a faerie who banged a mortal, and the resulting baby was promptly dropped in an orphanage. That baby, of course, being Mysie. The orphanage she lived in was just a repurposed lighthouse. Was childhood best friends with fellow orphan Astrid, who becomes her eventual lover.
Divergences here mean that Mysie and Astrid either leave to be moved to a wizard boarding school, or neither just drop out of the orphanage without getting adopted, and Mysie just makes ends meet by working for the resident apothecary. Secret third option
🌼 TRIVIA
- Alchemist. Really good at making potions. Resident healer. Sticks some herbs in your mouth.
- Birthday is 2nd of Susurroth (in-universe equivalent of July 1st, or roughly around there).
🌼 RELATIONSHIPS
Astrid Aurvandil • Best friend; girlfriend; eventual wife (Alive)
Childhood best friends-turned lovesick girlfriends. Eventually get married and have a child.

🌼 ALTERNATE UNIVERSES
Brambles & Thickets • (Feral AU)
Was dropped in the middle of a faerie-infested forest rather than an orphanage. Grew up raised by mercurial spirits in a "raised by wolves" situation. In her teens/adulthood, she becomes a terrifying faerie monster.
Princess & Knight • (Royalty AU)
Birthmother is a queen of some kingdom or empire, Mysie grew up as a spoiled heir. Astrid fills the role of royal protector.
