Personal Info!
Personality: She is best described as being innocent and devious at the same time. She doesn't quite understand the concept of "good and evil" because she thinks that everything about the world is good, one way or another. Mistic is quite cheerful, although she can also be envious. It's easy to make her jealous, and her jealously can escalate to rage. As I said, she doesn't understand what ethics is, so if she does something incredibly bad to the people she is jealous of, she sees no wrong in it. Everything, through her eyes, is justified.
Past: (It's long, sorry... ^-^")
Mistic's life began on the stage.
There lived a young Aisha girl named Misty who had a tremendous amount of singing talent, and she wrote songs that promoted happiness and optimism. Misty would have made a wonderful popstar, if it weren't for her... flaws. A terrible incident left her paralyzed from the waist down, and half of her face was horrendously disfigured. Misty was discovered by a record dealer, and while the poor girl had always dreamed of sharing her music with the world, she didn't want to appear on stage with her... condition. So that's why Mistic was created.
"Mistic" was, at first, a robotic performer. While Misty would sing backstage, Mistic was the one in the spotlight, dancing about and moving through the motions programmed into her. Because of her flamboyant and adorable appearance, Mistic came to have a huge fan base.
Of course, nobody knew she was a robot.
When inanimate objects are loved, they become Real, and many people loved Mistic. The robot slowly developed feelings and started to become aware of her surroundings. She didn't know who or what she was, but she was always on stage, dancing to songs about optimism and joy, so that's all she ever knew: happiness. To her, nothing else existed in the world. Just joy.
But one evening, Misty - the real star hiding behind the curtain - decided to come clean with her identity and reveal that the pop star everybody knew and loved was just a robot. Misty expected hatred, rejection... Miraculously, her fans responded with much love and enthusiasm. Despite her crippled body and deformed facial features, everybody still loved Misty. "We would like for you - the REAL you - to continue your concerts." And so, Misty became known around Neopia as the lovely new pop star who used to hide her true colors...
...But what happened to Mistic? Well, quite the opposite. Because a robotic pop star was no longer needed, she was trashed the next morning, her metallic body destined for the local junkyard. She was confused by her new disposition, because for the first time in her life, Mistic was experiencing rejection in its truest form. But, as the confused robot lay among the junk and broken debris of the junkyard, a Faerie appeared to her and said, "Because you were loved so dearly, I'm going to make you Real. Now you will be real to every one..." And POOF! The robot became a real person.
Mistic was completely ignorant of life off the stage, so she got off to a rough start. She might have starved to death if she hadn't been taken in by a perplexed Lupe named Chibi. Because she lacks knowledge of the real world and what exactly "reality" is, Mistic continues to think of the world as being incredibly sunny and merry... just like the songs she used to sing. She still sings them silently to herself, lyrics of silliness and pure innocence. These are the words that have defined her. Mistic's positive "anything-is-possible" outlook on life... is exactly what has corrupted her.
Plus: Good singer, a dancer, optimistic, innocent
Minus: She has a distorted view of the world, ignorant, naive, selfish, vengeful, extreme, envious
Extra: Mistic became Real because she was loved. Because of this, Mistic is determined not just to become a pop star, but to be loved by everyone. She wants to be famous again, but she doesn't realize exactly how difficult it is to become famous. She sometimes becomes jealous of people who are well-loved (she once became incredibly frustrated by the ice cream man because all the children seemed to LOVE him and not her). She is easily influence by others.
(By the way, Mistic was a bit hard to classify as being "Good or Bad." I picked Good because she really, truly, and honestly thinks that everything she does is good. She never tries to be bad, but if you think she is evil, then I can change that, because I half-agree with it. xD)
Anyway, I'm not too sure about this character. I don't know if Mistic is the type of character that would get accepted into this type of forum, but she's one of my few characters that doesn't have crazy-epic-powers, and because I don't want to risk being rejected due to overpowered characters (although they all have some sort of limit/disadvantage when it comes to their abilities), I picked Mistic.
