Appearance: Porom is petite, for her age, and has the decidedly weakly build of one who spends more time studying than exercising. She is also a bit on the skinny side, suggesting that her studying habits are accompanied by a rather strict diet. Her pale, almost ethereal skin tone speaks of too little time in the light of the sun.
Her light pink hair is tied simply into a long ponytail and there is no sign that she pays any particular attention to it beyond that. Though one could not accuse her of being slovenly, she could also never be accused of spending any more time looking at herself in the mirror than is absolutely necessary. From her hair to the trim of her clothes everything about her is tidy and simple. Of course, this said, her natural charm is in no way lessened and is, in fact, accented by her lack of prettying-up. Her wide, innocent blue eyes, coupled with her modest dress and appearance, give her a kind of angelic charm. Her smile is genuine and open, and her countenance shows plainly the depth of her peaceful and empathetic emotions.
She wears only two accessories, and their presence on her otherwise un-adorned form draw the eye. One is a small silvery star brooch that accents the lapel of the white robe she constantly wears. The other is the hood of the robe, which is usually down. When it is up, or if one looks closely when it is down, one can see two large triangles of cloth, white on the outside and pinkish-red on the inside, that sit atop the head when the hood is up and look like two cat-ears. Though this accessory would make any other girl look childish, its very childishness accents Porom's innocent features and gives her a very endearing look.
Personality: Porom is quite used to being half of a whole, and it shows rather starkly when she is by herself. Usually she borrows on her twin's courage and wit to speak openly to others and even do things like smack her twin upside the head when he does something rude. Alone she would never have the outgoing courage to do such things. By herself she is remarkably timid and overly polite, her formality making her seem a bit standoffish, though in reality she is quite warm and caring toward those close to her.
What Porom lacks in courage and adventurous spirit she makes up for in her faith, hope and charity. She is as kind as she is polite, and very selfless. She gives her all for those around her and expects nothing in return. Though she sometimes has doubts about her own abilities she instead places large amounts of faith in the power of prayer, belief and in the strength of those she adventures with. At all times she finds a way to keep a serene smile on her face, and she does her best to radiate peace and calm to those around her, even when she doubts her own ability to face up to great challenges.
History: Porom, along with her twin brother Palom, were born to a couple of simple foresters who lived in the large forest near the magical city of Mysidia. Several mages from Mysidia were present at the birth, due to several signs that had foretold the birth of two powerful mages. Alas, despite the best efforts of the attending white mages, the mother of the twins succumbed to the travails of birthing them and passed away. The mages convinced the poor father that it would be best for the twins to be raised in Mysidia, for even from birth it was clear that they were destined for great magical power.Their father agreed and little was heard from him since. It was believed that he was killed by the monsters that began to infest the forests near Mysidia during the time when the Crystals were being collected by the imposter King of Baron.
As soon as she learned to speak, which she did rather quickly, it was clear that Porom was destined for the peaceful path of a white mage, being nearly the mirror opposite of her twin brother. She was courteous and serene, and took easily to deep meditation and learning. Though she was not as witty as her brother, she instead excelled in processing the wisdom of her elders and applying it in her life. Through deep inner calm she harnessed the power of white magic and impressed all the mages of the city with her talents.
At only 5 years old she, along with her brother, was tasked with accompanying the dark knight Cecil on his quest to become a Paladin. Though the knight was told the twins were with him for support, they were in fact sent to spy on him and learn more of the threat of Baron. Instead they witnessed the successful conversion of Cecil to a Paladin, and made up their minds to take their journey with him as far as they could.
After a difficult battle against the imposter King of Baron, who turned out to be the Fiend Cagnazzo in disguise, the twins selflessly sacrificed themselves to protect Cecil and his companions. They believed in the light that had been placed in Cecil's hands, and knew that only he would be capable of stopping the darkness that threatened the world. They did not hesitate to trade their lives for his safety.
This sacrifice was not, however, permanent. They were later found and cared for by the Elder who had raised them since birth. With him they stood and prayed in Mysidia for Cecil and his companions as they went to the heart of the Moon to fight the darkness that gathered there.
After the events of that incident had calmed down Porom and her brother returned to Mysidia. There, for many years they continued to study under the Elder, who intended to pass his position as Seer on to the twins when he went the way of all the earth. Porom settled down easily into the long years of study, but her twin was opposed to it. He wanted great adventure and chafed at the boring life in Mysidia. Porom and the Elder tried to reason with him, but to no avail. Palom soon disappeared, almost immediately after the strange portal opened in their world. Porom despaired of ever seeing her twin again until finally the Elder, fearing the worst, sent Porom to the portal to investigate and perhaps bring her brother back.
