name ༈ mees lowry darshan
───── · ❅ · ─────
༈ mees is a crater located on the far side of the moon that's, even in the most favourable illumination and libration, not very visible to the naked eye. his parents named him this with that in mind: wanting people to gaze at their son with all the adoration, and that he could be a source of hope for those in need. it also happens to be a diminutive of the late latin/greek name
bartholomeus who was the son of king talmai
༈ lowry is an irish name meaning
descendants of labhradha, signifying to the royalty that has passed before mees and how he's there now, in their place, having learnt from their mistakes
༈ darshan is a word used in hinduism when someone achieves that level of enlightenment and spirituality that they can see the souls the deities have planted in all the objects around us. it's the surname of the royal family and fitting too, for how they have power over earth and everything in it

༈ birthday

appearance ༈
───── · ❅ · ─────

༈ dark, caramel skin that glistens like honey under the late evening glow of the sun
༈ dark brown hair that he keeps trimmed short and neat because it's
very curly and he's tried, it gets hard to manage if it starts sweeping below his ear lobe
༈ blue eyes that represent the waters, tanned skin that portrays the sun (or fire,) and full lips that curve into the sweetest of welcoming smiles that depict the rejuvenating qualities in a fresh, cold breeze. then he, to bind them all together

personality ༈
───── · ❅ · ─────
༈ sexual role
· versatile switch
༈ mbti type
· infj-t; the advocate
༈ moral alignment
· lawful good
༈ temperament
· mainly choleric; practical
༈ ebullient · has a certain aura of youthfulness around him and people are generally attracted to him; they find that it's easy to get along with and trust him because of how sedative his nature and intoxicating his smiles are
༈ dutiful · if there's one thing his elders have ingrained into his head, it's his sense of responsibility; if it's expected of him, he'll do it whether he, himself, wants to or not
༈ earnest · cannot, for the life of him, lie; his nervous habits start peeking through and if you catch onto them, it's really to tell when he's being anything
but fully truthful; this quality of his also plays in the factor that once he starts a task of his, he'll pour all his time and effort into it and will never half-ass anything
༈ felicific · despises conflict with every fibre of his being and will go to any length to prevent it from springing up; he'd rather
talk it out and
let's put this behind us
༈ impressionable · when people say the earth is a stoic and immovable object, mees will get into hour-long discussions to prove them wrong,
it's always in motion! and
the tectonic plates are slide over one another too! and
what about the magma?! basically, the con of having been raised in a household where your elders make decisions for you is how easily you can be swayed and convinced from one point to the next, because you've spent all your life coming up with "excuses" to justify the elders' decisions, subconsciously knowing that
they only want what's best for me
༈ brittle · he tends to overthink a lot and while it may not outwardly have a notable impact on his relationships with others, it starts hurting him inside, making it harder for him to direct his entire focus on honing his powers; this is why he's someone who's constantly trying to impress those around him - to "prove" himself
powers ༈ elemental control (earth)
───── · ❅ · ─────
༈ zoolingualism · one of the
earth blessings he's been gifted with: can understand the language of animals and beasts. first realised it when he'd been walking down one of the hallways in the solar temple and a heard a quiet but high-pitched,
"no! please don't!" he'd looked down at his shoes and saw that he'd almost stepped on an ant. he's been very careful about it from then onwards
༈ geokinesis · self explanatory: to be able to reshape or manipulate the earth (solid substances like vegetation, rocks, minerals, salts, soil, etc only.) requires a great deal of physical and mental strength that mees does not have
༈ retrocognition · can discern the past events that occurred in a specific place; it's not so much of a magic power than an ability to communicate with plants; they're living things too, they're aware of their surroundings, and they
trust mees enough to channel flashes of what had happened
༈ youth induction · another one of the
earth blessings; immortality and age regression are out of the question in a mortal universe where everyone returns to where they started from (the soil.) mees will undoubtedly age but will always look a few years younger than how old he actually is
༈ terraportation · to be able to teleport from one place to your desired destination via the earth; you need it's permission to be able to do so and so far, mees has been unsuccessful in convincing it
༈ enhancement · the earth benders' powers focus more on the other elementals than themselves; this is one of the major reason when the earth elementals are regarded as the
binding attraction between the rest; he can channel his own chakra and energy into others to magnify their powers and increase their strength; therefore
atmokinesis is a power he won't ever be able to practice himself; only try to bring the other elementals together so he can play his part as the
link they need to utilize their abilities together
