Demeanor
Is in constant motion. She talks with her hands, gestures with her arms, fidgets with things, paces, taps her fingers or feet. She needs to move and being told to keep still is basically a death sentence for her. SHe's also naturally loud and can have a hard time keeping her voice to a normal decibel.
There are no secrets with Byre. She wears her heart on her sleeve and has a tendency to blurt out whatever's on her mind whether it's prompted or not. Some may take it as too blunt or rude but it's always earnest.
Whether it's friends or lovers or anything between, she won't hold back from showering love on whomever she feels a bond with. This can sometimes lead to her jumping the gun on declaring new friends but she's more than eager to bridge that gap, doing favors or finding activities to do together. Her overzealous nature can be overbearing when all she really needs is affirmation that her affections aren't one-sided.

Creation
- Granted the gift of connections and their fates
- Other seraphim used her gift like a parlor trick to feed their egos
Upon creation Byrrumel was granted the gift of fate and connection. Her gift is the ability to see "red strings of fate" between individuals. The ties that bind us to other souls whether they are good or bad. The threads are thick or thin, bright scarlet or dull burgundy. The threads tell of a pair's past, present, and future and she can read every sinew with ease.
Considered a simple parlor trick to other angels, Byrrumel's gift was dismissed as those of a lowly cupid or sprite. She wasn't an overseer of land or element; she had no greater task to carryout in honor of the Symphony. Her only value was subordinates seeking to know the strength of their connections to their superiors. Was it strong? Did the higher-ups view them favorably? Was there a chance of promotion? The selfish plundering of her gift left Byrrumel weary of the seraphim around her though she strove to please when she could.
Fall
- Eosphorus saw the value Byrrumel's gifts and kept her close, pleasing Byrrumel to no end
- When Eosphorus turned his back on the Symphony Byrrumel chased after him
- Byrrumel was caught by the other seraphim immediately and stripped of her wings
Byrrumel's gift could not just see strong relationships though. She could see ones that were unraveling and had visions of the threads' future when the colors faded and the fabric rotted. Eosphorus recognized the power such vision could foretell and with Dumah in hiding, Byrrumel was now the closest angel within the Symphony with future sight. Eosphorus kept Byrrumel close and the seraph fell easily into the friendship; she was head over heels to finally have someone who had no interest in exploiting her gifts.
When Eosphorus fell Byrrumel chased her and was caught almost immediately by the other seraphim. She was stripped of her wings and left to wander the Other World with other lost souls. Byrrumel hasn't see Eosphorus since the fall.
After
- Byre spends her time in the Other World, avoiding seraphim and spending time with the souls of mortals
Without the Symphony to guide her or other seraphim to be around, Byre doesn't have a lot going for her. Cut off from the mortal realm and the Symphony, Byre spends her time in the Other World, the purgatory for mortal souls stuck inbetween. The place isn't exactly a dead zone, she still runs into plenty of seraphim, fallen or otherwise, but such meetings almost always end in violence if dragged out too long. She's found it better to just avoid them. The souls of the mortals tend to make better company.

Skills & abilities
Fire
The element born in Byre at her creation. It still stirs within her but her mastery of it has gotten shakey since she lost her wings. A dangerous element that can spread quickly and burn severely if left out of control, Byrrumel avoids using it when possible. Unfortunately her temper can get the better of her when the right buttons are pushed.
Wires
It's only fitting for the angel of threads to also use them as weapons. Spiked, metal wires that Byre wields like whips to lash out at her enemies.
Angelic
The day Byre was cast out her world became muted and her abilities stunted. Flying and healing were lost to her. A strong enough opponent could kill her if they wanted to. Even her abilities to sense souls has become muted to only what's in her immediate area.
Dumah isn't much for company, the other seraphim preferring their isolation to being near other souls, but it's their hermit tendencies that draw Byre in. The politics and prejudices of the Symphony do not invade the quiet of Dumah's presence. Byre's pretty sure Dumah would have no motivation to use or betray her.
Funny little mortal whose soul is lost in the Other World. Byre likes to help him out from time to time.
