~~~Personality~~~

Maylin is often described as a generally happy, positive force in life. She's kind and big-hearted and hates violence. She is excitable and sometimes forgets to think before she talks. Her sweetness is often mistaken for weakness or immaturity, but Maylin isn't afraid to stand up for what she believes is right.

With the ability to experience others' emotions, Maylin is often selfless, as she hates to see and feel other people suffer. She often puts herself in the position of sensing other people's emotional and physical pain to comfort those who need it. She would gladly do anything for everyone if it brought them happiness.

However, she is, at her core, an openly emotional creature. Her emotions can swing from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows. Her empathy allows her to feel emotions more potent than others, and what may be a slight disappointment to others can be heartbreaking for Maylin. She loves completely and in the purest sense of the world, much like a child but with the appreciation that only loss could bring.

~~~Appearance~~~

Human Form

Maylin had tight black curls as a child, but now those curls have fallen into thick waves that frame her face. Her hair falls to about her waist, but her emerald eyes remain her dominant feature amidst the speckling of freckles on her face.

Her height is average, measuring five feet three inches. Her body is slim and muscular, with a tiny waist and broad shoulders. Her favourite clothing is floral maxi dresses with soft pastel colours. The lengths vary from knee light to down to the floor. She prefers to be barefoot but will wear a simple flat ballet pump if shoes are required.

Maylin's Colour Palette

~~~Wolf Form~~~

She has silky, iridescent fur that is long but thick. She weighs no less than 90 pounds with defined muscle that ripples through her legs and chest. To her shoulder, her height is forty-eight inches. Forty-two sharp, jagged teeth linger in her maw. Her emerald eyes shine brilliantly against her dark fur, giving her a dramatic look.

Her paws are large, with white dots scattered down to her toes. Thick padding protects her feet against sharp rocks and cold snow. Her tail is long and fluffy, with thick fur hanging about four inches, longer than the fur on her body.

She is a quick wolf, getting her speed from her father and can run up to 60 miles per hour for long periods. Her long legs allow her to propel through any terrain.

--- Lycan Form ---

In her newly discovered Lycan form, Maylin gains just over two feet of height, stretching to seven and a half feet. For her extra two feet of height, she gains around two hundred pounds of muscle, bone, and power. Her fur keeps its iridescent black look but looks slicker as though she has been dipped in oil.

The most dominant feature of her Lycan side is the changing colour of her eyes. When in control, Maylin's eyes will remain unchanged and stay the deep emerald colour of her human and wolf forms. However, when Maylin has no control, her eyes are as black as her coat and serve as a warning to those around her.

Due to her empathetic abilities, Maylin's lycan does not respond in a typical way. May does not physically possess the anger and rage needed to shift into this form. So, Maylin has learned to use her empathetic abilities to 'borrow' the emotions from others and channel their anger to trigger her shift. This has its benefits as Maylin has learned to control her Lycan side much faster than most by severing the empathetic connection to the other person.

But it also has its limitations. Maylin cannot shift alone without an external source of emotion, so it could leave her vulnerable. But the primary factor is that once in Lycan form, should the source of the anger become calm, she would struggle to maintain the form alone, so she can be forced to shift out of this form whether she is in control or not.

~~~Powers/Abilities~~~

*Empathy - can fully interpret and replicate the emotions, moods, and temperaments of others without reading apparent symptoms, allowing them to understand introverts or discover one emotion is hiding another. They can attack someone personally and emotionally since they know exactly what emotion flows through them and can use it to play against them. Some users may learn to read emotional imprints left in the environment or objects.

*Psychometry ( Yet to be discovered ) - obtains historical memories or sensations concerning beings and objects they can observe by their senses. With objects, they gain the knowledge, including the makers, users, and even those who have, in passing, used the purpose and what has been done with it. With living beings or parts of the body, the user learns their general history but doesn't gain anything from what they think or feel.

*Lie Detection - The power to detect lies. Not to be confused with Telepathy or Truth Inducement.

*Empathic Healing - The power to heal others' emotional wounds and/or burdens. Combination of Empathy and Healing. Not to be confused with Wound Transferal or Mental Healing. This power offers a comfortable touch, and healing means that it is otherwise beyond the ones that heal physical injuries since they cannot heal emotions.

*Happiness Inducement - can induce a state of joyful, cheerful delight-fullness in a target.

~~~Limitations~~~

*Empathy - Might get taken over and act on emotions.
May experience headaches.
Defenceless against beings that have no emotions.
Spirits or Ghosts can easily possess it.

*Psychometry - Must be able to observe the object by senses.
It is limited to touch.

*Lie Detection - Useless against Apathy.
It will not work against brainwashed targets.
She will not sense the reason behind the lie.

*Empathic Healing - When taking someone's pain, the user assumes the pain onto themselves.
Heals emotional wounds, but not the actual physical injuries.

*Happiness Inducement - Useless against Apathy.
Useless against beings with no emotions.

*Silver - vulnerability to silver or any substance containing silver

*Vulnerability/Mortality - She is not immortal and will age, and although she has advanced healing, she is susceptible to death should the wound be grave enough.

~~~History~~~

Maylin was conceived of two alphas of the Kostas Pack and brought into the world surrounded by a secure pack. But a few short weeks after her first venture out, she and her two siblings were taken by her mother and a stranger wolf she would soon come to know as Wolf Mortum to a place far away from her father.

The journey was long and far from the pack life she had been used to; she did not like Wolf Mortum one bit, and she missed her father terribly. Her mother had changed; she had become hard and did not let the three of them play as much as they liked; instead, they had to endure training with that male, Wolf.

The five of them lived in the Barren lands for weeks. The times were hard until one day, a line of figures broke through the haze of the earth. It was her father and a band of wolves from her homeland. They had made the journey to save them! But the happiness quickly found a route to fright when her mother and Wolf turned and grabbed her siblings, running and leaving her in the open. Something was wrong.

She dropped to her belly, ears flat as a whine escaped her maw. She was scared, but her dad scooped her up in his jaws, and the familiar smell of wood and embers caressed her fright. Her father turned, reluctance in his aura as the two watched Wolf and her mother running, running... Gone.

She and her father returned home to the Kostas Lands, where he stepped down as Alpha and focused on raising her. Her time with her father was precious and filled with love, but her heart longed to find her siblings, Cayden and Mikayla, who had been left behind.

After much debate and arguing with her father, he finally relented and gave her his blessing to search for them. She left the Kostos pack and her father soon after and headed to the last place she remembered seeing her family. The Barren lands.

She travelled to the land safely and searched for a significant period. But all she found was a wasteland void of any real life but, more importantly, no sign of her twin brother or sister.

A few months passed, and she missed her father and the company of other wolves. She had grown lonely, and wandering around aimlessly across that wasteland had made her homesick. So she left the Barren lands to find her father, Blaze, home in Kumari. Arriving home, she was stunned to see her brother Cayden had located them. It was a joyous reunion for her, although her brother seemed angry at the world.

However, this reunion was short-lived, as seeing her brother only made her long to see her sister and mother more. Once again, she searched for her family and failed, only to find that her mother had returned to her homeland. Her hunt for Mikayla has ended at her mother's insistence, and now she has to strengthen her relationship with her brother and get to know the mother she never had a chance to know.

~~~Arcane~~~

Maylin made her way to Arcane after a corporation moved into her home, and then her family suddenly disappeared. She made the long journey from Kostos to this strange land, hoping to reunite with her family again. Unfortunately, her hopes of joining were crushed when she was captured, like many of her kind but Ox Corp. However, her time there was relatively short as Bladewolf helped her escape her captors.

What followed was a brief relationship with Blade that had to end when she found her sister Mikayla and lost her brother Cayden who died protecting his mate Veita. Now she is situated in the Wilderness with her sisters and Zigan. Not a pack per se, but they all look to each other, with Zigan protecting them and Maylin acting almost like pack mother, ensuring the well-being of those around her and guaranteeing a hot meal every night. It's not perfect, but it's home.

A few years passed, and Maylin, her sisters, and Zigan managed to survive. However, life was about to change as Blade reappeared and tried to form a pack, Pack Irae. Maylin with Blade as Alpha and Zigan as Beta. Around this time, her father returned, and Maylin was reunited with him and other family members like Aleria, Kara, and Justin. Within a few days of the new pack forming, many members fought alongside the vampires. Unfortunately, not all of them returned, and Maylin was devastated to lose her sister Veita. After a brief time away with Kara, who helped her work through her emotions, they buried her sister in a ceremony attended by everybody except Blade. This series of events triggered many emotions, and Zigan ultimately challenged Blade. Maylin did not witness the fight but did arrive towards the end, where her father had stepped in and ultimately subdued Zigan and became Alpha.

The fight's results were long-lasting, Blade disappeared to the Shadow Realm, and Zigan retreated to the Wilderness. After a day or so, Maylin went to check up on Zigan and bring him supplies. A deep conversation led to a sudden awakening and realisation between the two when she found him. A deep kiss sealed the imprinting that had always been there but had been dormant because of Zigan's grief for his last mate. They spent that night asleep by the river until her father appeared the following morning and blessed the relationship. She returned home with her father, but unfortunately, she would not be there for long before tragedy struck.

Her eldest sister Ashlyn returned to them, and Maylin was the first to discover her. Unfortunately, things escalated as Ashlyn and May spoke, and the arrival of Kara only pushed matters further. The anger and rage within Ashlyn were too much, and it triggered Maylins Lycan's side to be finally born. Maylin doesn't remember much of the encounter and would rather keep it that way, knowing that her sister would have died if it were not for the intervention of Kenshu Death. Zigan had been the one to subdue her Lycan and took it upon himself to bring May out into the Wilderness to help her gain control so she could return to her family safely, knowing she wouldn't hurt them again.

Soon after, a special dinner was held between the pack and the vampires, and the night was brought to a sudden end when Kara went into labour. Maylin was honoured to have been present for the birth of her half-brother Orion. She didn't know how quickly she would be pregnant with her and Zigans first litter after that. She gave birth to a son and a daughter whom she named Primrose and Cedar. However, she would have her hands full as Kara disappeared once again in the face of motherhood, leaving her father, Blaze, alone. May could do nothing to ease her father's pain, which grew.

As May and Zigan became pregnant again, life was almost perfect, but that wasn't to last. Their world was first turned upside down with the arrival of a wolf named Kyros. Although some of her pack seemed to recognise him, he was a stranger to her. He challenged her father for the Alpha position, and to her shock, Kyros won. Maylin was devastated as her father was banished from the pack and couldn't help the feeling of betrayal as the rest of the pack accepted Kyros. But Zigan begged her to stay for his and their pups' sake, and despite missing her father, she remained with Zigan and her pack. However, that would not be the only loss she and her pack would suffer.

Ox Corp attacked the woods, although she and her pups were evacuated. The rest of her pack fought bravely to defend the lands, but it was a losing battle, and they all eventually retreated. Zigan was injured but survived; however, her father died protecting them and her sister, her last remaining litter mate, disappeared, and nobody was ever found. Part of Maylin hoped she had died that day instead then be captured by the enemy. May has grieved her every day, and despite having her mate, pups and pack, there was a part of her that would always miss her brother, sisters and ultimately, her father.

But, there was little time to grieve as Zigan assumed the mantle of Alpha for the pack. She never doubted Zigan's ability to lead, even if he doubted himself. He helped the pack rebuild and did his best to be a present father. It was often hard to juggle both, so Maylin tried to handle as much with the pups as possible. She was a devoted mother and did whatever her husband and now Alpha asked of her. Their new life is not bad, but Maylin has struggled to adjust to city life, missing nature and the peace it brought her. Thankfully the pups have given her plenty of reasons to escape to the Wilderness and escape the noise and dirt of the city
