Appearance: On the short end of things and a light weight, Milly (or Mimi for her friends or those using it to mock her) is anything but an imposing thing to behold, at the very least when it comes to being intimidating. The likely culprit of somewhat underdeveloped frame, can be traced by recognizing her Ostland accent (which she never managed to shed and fruitlessly tries to conceal) and having even the slightest knowledge of the region, particularly of the relative poverty in comparison to other regions of the Empire. All on her own, she isn't much to look at, pale skin after years of seclusion, dark brown hair always kept somewhere between chin and shoulder length, save for some strands to each side, framing her face and reaching down at about her chest. Milly's most remarkable features are in fact her crimson eyes and the longer parts of her hair which are pretty much out of any sense or fashion but that if inquired, she will allege to keep 'because looks and appearances are important'.

Mimi's 'style' and fashion sense when it comes to clothes (and many other things) is akin to that of the stereotypical fashion aware Reiklander but without much of the acute understanding of it. Still an unfinished project but what she considers to be the perfect garments for her to look dashing and leave a lasting impression (the later far more common) can already be seen in her stylish cape, tunic, big and peculiar hat, as well as her riding boots (for someone traveling on foot) and quarterstaff, which looks and is wielded as if it was some magical artifact rather than walking aid or something to whack stuff with. Other apparent things aside from her dashing clothes of choice, she has some that aren't too different from those any commoner would wear, a backpack and a slingbag in which she stuffs her meager possessions while traveling (though she carries the later anyway).


Personality: As any true Ostlander, Milly isn't a stranger to privations, (having endured them quite often when she was back at her homeland) and can be quite stubborn by Reikland standards. Despite being a kindhearted gal, Mimi is not above the kind of trickery to get what she wants more befitting to a knave, though never if there are any serious consequences for it on her or others. Her demeanor is usually calm cheerful and straightforward, having her at a friendly predisposition in contrast to perhaps the more reclusive picture one may have of a Wizard. That attitude, if touching on things she as an interest in, insulting her, prodding her huge competitiveness or feeling that is appropriate to the situation, gives way to the type more attuned to the Bright Order she belongs to. In such occasions, she tends to come across as brash and genuinely stubborn, confrontational and even volatile, adjectives that reaped her no shortage of 'correctives and educational beatings' from her mentor.

Mimi was a bit of an Ostlander country bumpkin when she began her apprenticeship but much of her original customs and mannerisms were weeded out during it, yet sadly only to in large part be replaced by those she often only half understood from Altdorf and Reikland, during the few times she was outside the college along her tutor or more recently on her own as a journeyman wizard. This in turn makes her a strange mixture of things from both places, the seclusion of the college preventing her from truly merging both influencing currents. On one hand, although she tries to conceal it, she has an accent from Ostland that she could never get rid of and is very ashamed of, as people associate it with poverty, which in her case would be quite on point. The second most remarkable gift from her homeland is being anything but squeamish with what she eats, is not that she doesn't have a taste in food but quite the opposite, Milly appreciates it's finer forms quite a lot but being more than acquainted with hunger, she will go to great lengths to stave it off.

On the other hand, some of the less commendable stereotypes of Reikland have rubbed on her. Feeding into an already present taste for flair and theatrics, which in conflation with her ego and delusional aspirations have had some consequences. The most evident being her fashion sense as well as importance given to it, somewhat obsessed with getting it right and it being an integral part of her 'brand' as a wizard, intended to be a boon to it, searing her distinctive look onto the minds of those who witness her exploits. Such investment and importance given to appearance may have her come across as vain and shallow as many a lady from Reikland but lacking much of the actual class and regal, dignified demeanor they possess.
