Appearance:
While not unattractive with her blonde hair, blue eyes and good proportions she does carry a layer of adipose from good eating though stops short of actually being overweight, more falling in the comfortably chubby weight range. She usually keeps her hair straight or bound into a poneytail whenever she's active and tends to obscure her eyes with a pair of stylish low perscription glasses. She tends to wear comfortable tomboyish clothes, preferring to marry practicality with style, not afraid of looking less than entirely effeminate which does seem to suit her general build quite well. She can rarely be found without a satchel or backpack containing the latest and greatest of gadgets as she has the habit of splurging large amounts of her allowance on electronics.
As a clumsy child she did manage to hurt herself on many an occasion, she walks with a limp from an old riding accident, she also has poor sight in her left eye and is hard of hearing in her left ear. She does seem reluctant to discuss the details of what caused these injuries though.

Background:
Meriam comes from old money, her parents are from British and Scandinavian nobility who made it big by investing the fortunes of their families in the north sea oil business and having controlling interest in various parts of the german and russian heavy industry as well as many other ventures across the world. Her older siblings following suit, either going into business themselves or excelling at sports or academic persuits. Being the youngest of such a lineup and fully expected to be an overachiever too was hard on the relatively lazy yet no less ambitious Meriam.

After she graduated highschool at 18 she initially got enrolled in a business school by her parents. Quickly discovering that she had no talent at, nor any interest in business she barely bothered to attend classes and eventually dropped out. After that she moved from the one bullshit program to the next, dropping out of most as her interest in that particular topic reached it's saturation and lazyness overtook her curiosity. This same habit of aquiring and ditching persuits carried over to her hobbies as well, while riding and marksmanship were family staples she took up and ditched many hobbies and sports like hockey, chess, violin, bagpipes, piano, fencing, swimming and various others.

Eventually while enrolled for the degree Bachelor of Arts in Interplanar Relations her interest in the realms was awakened, lands of dangerous places and dangerous people who weren't quite civilized anymore, a place that had caused so much pain and suffering for her parents as well as memories of an old house with a large garden and roadsigns with funny words on them. Soon the temptation to find out more about this place overwhelmed her and she took a transfer program through the Titus Bering Academy, eventually joining in with an expedition into the overworld with nary a word to her parents.
