physical
[/i][/size][/left]physical appearance[/i]
Vailea stands at 5'7 and is considered short compared to others of her 'kind' as many pure mermaids stand at over 6'. She is skinny with a modest bust but her skin is flawless, without fault and she commands a beauty that rivals even a veela. Her hair is jet black, straight and falls to her hips and is always worn in a long plait down her back, always tied back whilst on land however when in the water she will wear it loose. Her eyes are a stunning icy blue and are often mistaken to be white.
In the water practically everything about her changes. Gone is the jet black hair. In the water it takes on a slightly dark greenish tinge, is always loose so it floats about her and if she is under water for longer than an hour or so will adorn it with pearls and seaweed. Her legs also disappear when fully submerged in any body of water (includes baths but walking about in the rain will NOT affect her in any way other than colour her hair slightly) and are replaced with a black, elegant tail, again with some dark green scales. This tail is also incredibly strong so try not to get caught by it! For those who don't know when she lived in the ocean she wore no top to preserve her modesty however since moving to the school she wears a bandeau of green material (granted it is nearly sheer) around her chest.
On land it is not surprise Vaelia favours dark clothing. It doesn't matter if it is muggle or wizarding she will wear pretty much anything however she does like to have a little bit of class, despite the work she does and will dress up for every special occasion.

overall personality[/i]
Vailea has had something of a personality shift since finding out she is a half breed. Once upon a time she was as cruel and unforgiving as the sea she was born in. The rule of her people was that one could not fall in love with a two legger but it was more than acceptable for a human to fall in love with a mermaid. For Vailea this meant helping her sisters lure in men from the land however she was not just 'bait'...She was a warrior. Unlike the mermaids located around the British Isles she did more than hiss at the movement of a guppy fish. She was viscous, swift and as deadly as a shark with bloodlust and willing to do whatever it took to keep her people safe.
Her mother being an important priestess of their people she was born into a life of what is classes as 'luxury' although land dwellers would call it a simplistic life. As a result of this Vailea is a very proud young woman, raised to be aware of her sexuality and more importantly raised to know that as a mermaid she was more important than the men...of course on land this is a little different but she is very outspoken about the rights of women and will rather date a woman than a man but there is nothing to say she won't try anything. Along with being proud to be a woman she was raised what humans call 'racist'. She was brought up to believe that anyone not like themselves is wrong, that they are the strongest race for they live in an unforgiving environment but since her discovery of being a half breed she has had to revisit such thoughts and build a new life for herself.
Since moving to land she has had to change a great deal about her perception of the world. She is still a proud woman and warrior but now she sees that there are many species on this planet and although she often things they are not quite the same as she is they also have their strong points. Vailea is a much nicer person on land however do not take for granted she will not defend herself for even with legs she is more than capable of taking you out...magic or not!

history[/i]
Vailea was not born to a loving mother and father. A result of a forced union between Piscina and an unknown human male who was later killed by her mother once his work was done Vailea is the only daughter of a priestess of their people. Although many children were conceived through this terrible method none had ever been a half breed before. She was the only one in their family and for her entire young life the secret was kept from her. Instead she was raised to follow her mother's footsteps, becoming a member of their temple and was encouraged to become one of the many warriors of their clan.
This life started for her from the age of five. Having shown signs of being a rare, dark beauty (obviously thanks to her father) for every other mermaid was either blonde or red haired she was considered beautiful despite her odd genetic defect. Her life was to be ruled by the elders and with it came the responsibility of taking over after her mother passed over. There was no such thing as school in the reef of the sea, instead she learnt how to lure sailors to their deaths so that her sisters might feast upon their flesh, how to keep their gods happy with sacrifice and most importantly, how to wield a weapon that would keep their home safe.
By the age of ten she was being sent out with her sisters, not caring about a life beyond what she knew. She was more than happy to do as she was told, her heart as cold as the deepest part of the ocean. In fact she didn't begin to thaw out until the day she was told she could leave the city with no escort. At the age of twenty one she had come of age some years before and it had always been a sore point to her that she had never seen beyond what she was restricted to. This new found freedom allowed her to swim further from home than ever and it was nothing new for her to be away for days at a time.
It was during one of these trips that she came across a small island. Watching it for some days she had soon come to the conclusion that it was deserted for she never saw any sign of life and it was the fourth day that she decided to brave it and hoisting herself onto the rocks set about sunning herself in the suns rays. Drifting off to sleep she was awoken some hours later by a man leaning over her. A most attractive man! But that wasn't what startled her..Why had he not killed her for being different? Looking down at herself she saw something she would never have thought possible. She had legs! Her skin was bone dry, having dried out in the sun and it was with horror that she jumped to the conclusion that it had also dried away her tail...for what other reason was there? In her fright she had dived back into the water before the man could say anything.
Her fear drove her from the place for several weeks before she gained the courage to return and once again placed herself on the rocks however this time she did not sleep, her eyes fixed on her tail and it was wide eyes that she watched her tail melt away as the moisture did, once again leaving her with human legs. And once again the man appeared. Again, she jumped back into the sea, disappearing from his sight.
This cycle carried on several times before they actually spoke. By this time she was nearing twenty two. Vailea was no fool. By the time the pair had started to speak to one another she had given him her heart for she knew that he watched her emerge from the sea each time she came to the island and yet he did nothing! A man of pure heart he was exactly what she had hunted down at home and yet she loved him more than anything. Unfortunately it is not in the nature of sirens to allow themselves to love and with deep shame she blurted out the entire thing to her mother. The next time she returned to the island she found her love, his heart torn out and body drying out in the sun.
You didn't need to be smart to know what had happened. Grief fuelling her she returned home and confronted her mother who told her simply that loving a human was impossible. Unheard of! They lived to bring men to their knees but they could never have a true relationship with one...Vailea, heartbroken, told her mother about what happened when she was on land and to her ever lasting horror was told about her father. A two legger! She was a half breed! Shame drove her to attack her mother, to attack the person who had raised her and to attack those that tried to stop her. She did not kill her mother but it was enough for her to exile herself from the home she had always known.
Heading for land she has slowly made her way to England. A cold and horrible country but one far enough away from her own home to ensure her safety from being found. If found she would be made to return to her duties and how can she ever do that again with the knowledge she now possesses? She has loved a human with all her heart but he is long gone...and although he still holds a piece of her heart she knows that she must move on. She cannot remain as cold as she had once been.
Being as she is it has been difficult to find work and it has taken some time to land on this job as the grounds keeper of a school. Only a select few of the school staff know of her true identity however for the rest of the school she is considered a strange but beautiful individual... although many have to wonder if she is part veela. She laughs at the very thought!
