master Meliana Kirstoff Arthima
Physical Description
Extremely Muscular, practically masculine, extremely fit. Lost a bit of agility, but capable of breaking rocks with fists.
Muscles, more than standard human.
Her short hairs and her clothes of Alkalian nature, made of a matter that Meridian do not yet know to create.
Her muscles tend to contract by themselves regularly as she breathes.
As a master monk of Rhode, she is able to break rocks, and lift them. Have low psychic power (telekinesis and a levitation), augmented sight, smell and hearing, and all form of perception in general, even those not common to human.
She like necklaces and rings, sometime earrings; but always of masculine nature.

Mental characteristics
Méliana, like her sister, skipped many classes before obtaining her second level diploma at the age of only sixteen, then entering the Academy of Physical and Chemical Sciences in Koruthil, to become a mechanical engineer at the age of twenty, and then becoming an auriferous of Rhodes the following year. She uses a panoply of tools to make whatever and whatever; her weapons of choice are a crossbow and a short blade, both of which are foldable; dwarven geomancy gloves modified by her to be compatible with fragments of the master crystal of the Magister Tower. She also uses Orkish alchemy discovered thanks to Yloriem, whose bowl and pestles she exchanged for her geomancy glove. All her feats of ingenuity make her a rival of choice for her twin sister.
She has undergone two engineer degree, one in mechanic, and one in chemistry.
She worked a bit for Mortenzen BRC, as engineer and architect. Now she posess her own engineering office and laboratory: the Bureau of electro-thauma, cofounded with her twin sister Yloriem. They studies, create and develop dwarven technologies infused with human magic enchantments.
Saving the world by killing an immortal witch. Being the responsible for Alia, and the entire kingdom's modernization, specifically creation of the railroads.
She may have some, but she can't remember, too occupied to boast on her success.
Maybe the day she became a mutant by drinking the Rhodian potion, and becoming Rhodian monk.
With two engineers degree, she is quite the head.
Straight in book, manager kind of strict. (she regrets the time she could afford to be more carefree like her sisters)
The fact that her twin sister is a renowned archmage, and she was as good as her in magic but turned to technology, and developed her talent in secret, so no official.
Personality Characteristics
The Alkalian dream of ever developing new technology.
She is able to recycle more or less anything into scraps, and then create mechanisms of it (especially traps).
She likes well-made work, seriousness and entrepreneurial spirits. Which means she doesn't really like slackers, except her sisters, they terribly deserve slacking off.
Being able to fight bare handed with a Celan without burning, and win.
When she is on a project, she tends to forget what sleep is, or how to sustain, by all tens she still thinks about taking a shower every 48 hours. And in that same state she gets easily angered if her assistants are not as reactive as she is. (she tends to forget it's not them that are slow, it's her who have a mutant brain)
She tends to speak fast and forget punctuation. She is always thinking, so much that her hands works by themselves, even in her sleep. Even her eyes and head seems to be always reading invisible notes.
By the ten, she still has one. But it's really the minimum. Working is like breathing for her, she is always sweating and sore, but she barely feels her own pain. She barely changes clothes, and someone else do the washing for her, or she would forget to do it.
Social
Her patrons, Mortensen BPC, a city-state of Septrial, the five countries' leaders as she direct the project of implanting international railroad connections. The entire Onirem family, A Rakri count, the Matriarch of Akeidre.
Her twin sister Yloriem, fusional relationship. Her big sister Aridia, and of course her little sister and her parents.
Science. Frausner would be proud.
She was charismatic, until she became the big engineer. Now she is still charismatic for her employee and employers, but lack the charisma of the hero she was.
She is an employer now, she has the manner of one. But outside the job she is something between Yloriem and Aridia, a bit loudmouth, and lack some feminine traits.
Her hobbies included making concealed mechanism, like secret blades, scopes. She was a good hunter with crossbow. And loved cats and dogs. She still does, but now the cat is more often with Yloriem than with her., and the dog is more often outside guarding the workshop than playing with her. Her crossbow is rusting somewhere on her desk, serving as a paper-clip.
Quasi-masculine voice, fast, sometimes miss punctuation. Use elven swearing she picks from her sister, and sometime even speak Alkalian without being conscious of it. as she tires herself, she tends to have tone fluctuation, the one of someone tired.
