Character Concept/No spoilers backstory summary
The last person you would imagine when asked to think of a yanar. Born in the outskirts of Rosendale to two unionist yanar parents, a rare combination indeed, Avril belives she has good reason to not consider herself properly yanar, and more so idolises the ideal of being Ailor. While bound by her physical traits and the makeup of her heritage, wildbirths brought on by delusional fits, and her dreamrealm seeking to hide her away, Avril believes she would be better suited as an ailor. This rejection of herself, as well as the further conflicts made from her religious background, and being born an exist mage made for a rather unstable young woman, haunted further by the events time would bring. Although a wretched and unstable mess upon arriving in Regalia to hunt down one of her escaped creations, Avril has eventually been brought back to a more docile and humane state. Now, whether or not this skittish and shy woman is truly Avril Morselli is left uncertain.
[SPOILER="᯽Backstory᯽"]Avril was born Celestine Amnon, her family having joined an Ailor family in an attempt at "civilising" them. Something was wrong with Avril upon birth, but it wasn't her status as a mage born. In a simple course of nature, Avril could be noted of displaying the characteristics of several mental disorders, which were left completely unaddressed by her parents. With her behaviour and mannerisms dismissed as a side effect of being mage born, Avril would spiral in time, resulting in a development of multiple comorbid disorders. Due to both a genetic and environmental factor, Avril exhibits many behaviours and thoughts associated with clinical depression, which she has yet to acknowledge or understand. Treating her own disturbed thoughts as something normal, experienced by everyone. She is left under the assumption that everyone has the same problems she does, but to a lesser extent, they are simply better at handling it. This belief infuriates her, but she refuses to accept reality as well.

Appearance Information
Once incredibly tall and lanky, hiding her status as a Yanar out of internalised shame and prejudice, after returning from death, Avril has grown a newfound appreciation for her existence as a Yanar. Even if she still believes Ailor bodies to be superior, she had found that being Yanar has its own perks. Having lost a bit of her imposing height, though still quite tall and clearly physically weak. She has thin legs and arms, which she keeps consistently covered by long-sleeved clothing and longer dresses and skirts, however she is growing more comfortable showing skin. Avril still leans towards darker colours thanks to her desire to remain warm, however her appreciation for pastels and more colourful clothing does shine through now and again.
Avril's death also brought forth a weakened ability to hide her Yanar appearance, though she still has her dark seaweed hair, chopped into a short, curly bob. Honeysuckle now peaks through. A large burn scar covers Avril's face, damaging an eye to the point of functional blindness as well as giving it a form of amblyopia. Upon closer inspection, one might note that the scarring isn't quite normal, skin shifting and changing texture and colour oh so slowly. Being incredibly self-conscious of the scarring,
Avril tries to cover what she can of it, ashamed enough of her body as is. Avril's ribs are still visible when she contorts to what might be considered an unhealthy degree, Once this was due to her unique condition after her time in Genevaud, holding an overall uncanny appearance, especially when smiling. However, after her death, Avril proportioned into a healthier shape, more fat on her stomach, waist, and bosom, though she is still rail thin and rather flat. Lacking complete body consciousness, Avril's slightly warped expressions and tone give her an unnerving look at times, appearing rather dolllike, matched by large eyes and highly expressive ears.

᯽ Altered Self: You may create two versions of yourself that you can transform between. Each can have a different design, Proficiency spread, and personality (however, Charisma Proficiency must be the same across both). You must declare both Proficiency sets on your Character Sheet. Swapping can only occur out of Combat, while no Cooldowns are active, and force you to stay transformed for at least a week.
᯽ Emotion Sense: You can sense the emotions of others, even the ones they try to hide unless they have a Mechanic that would block their emotions from being read. Additionally, you can copy their emotions and feel them yourself, you can heighten or lessen their emotions, or encourage other emotions in them with mere eye contact. Changing someone else's emotions requires OOC Consent, however.
᯽ Wood Singer: You can use song, music, or hand gestures to reshape wood and other plant-like materials in any shape you like, for example, jewelry or weapons. Other good applications for this are as furniture or decorations inside houses, or to address in-the-moment needs while in the forest, for example by creating wooden bowls, or chairs to sit on that sprout from the roots in the soil.
᯽ Seed Singer: You are deeply in tune with nature's growth and diversity. You can control the growing speed of plants and flowers around you, and even cross-breed plants at will to create unique new plants, and even reshape existing plants with new foliage, color, shape, and so forth. You can grow food nearly anywhere, so long as there is a little bit of soil, water, and sunlight present to stave off hunger.
᯽ Dream Singer: You can control the dreams of anyone who is either sleeping in your Rental Region/ Base/ Estate or anyone who is sleeping in the same scene as you. You can see their dreams, alter their course and their experience, and prevent them from waking up or forcibly waking them. You can also enter their dream subconsciously and speak/ interact with the person, and make them forget what happened in the dream after.

Fun facts: This contains spoilers
᯽ So traumatised by her time in the alps that Avril now actively seeks out fire, and enjoys the company of Suvial, despite still being racist. Though she finds great comfort in fire, Avril is now more keen on shying away from the tongues of its flames. She recognises the fact that Suvial can't help being the way they are, if she is burned it is her own fault. That being said, having fire too close to her body will result in a meltdown.
᯽ She has an inverted fear, is unfazed by fire, but is terrified of ice and snow.
᯽ Avril is even more of a stickler for unwanted touch, skin on skin contact, compared to other yanar. Anything she doesn't fully consent to is bound to end in a meltdown, and a sure fire way to be screamed at.
᯽ Fascinated by souls, thanks to her time being accused of being souless by ill-informed people in the caravan, as well as her newer "experiences" going through a pseudo death, Avril is now doing a great deal of research on all Mystech.
᯽ Avril hates all religion and gods equally, (though the only followers she hates are that of the Malefica), she is devout to her idea of "The natural order" and reveres it similarly.
᯽ Avril likes bugs, somewhat, because she sees them as her servants, or parts of a machine. She still dislikes touching them, however she is more than happy to use them to create ideal ecosystems for her plants.
᯽ Having hunted for sport in Tirgunn, Avril now has an affinity for horses and dogs, specifically sight hounds and farm horses.
