Fashion Sense/Style
Loose clothing, in darker colors, especially dark purples. Long, drooping sleeves are a plus, but not a necessity. She mostly wears boots. You will never see her in pants of her own accord. She takes great pride in the many hats she wears, which are very intricate and detailed. The outfit she is wearing in her picture is fairly similar to what she would normally wear, minus the cape and earrings.
Personality
On the outside, Mys appears to be a rather short-tempered, stubborn individual. She is quite moody, almost always sporting a sour face. In her world, most everybody around her is incompetent, idiotic and an utter waste of space. On the inside, Mys' cynical outlook towards others is a result of her own projection. She is incredibly critical of herself, rarely pleased with anything she accomplishes. While she hides it well, she is easy to fluster, and often finds herself embarrassed or uncomfortable. Those she is fond of are often subject to even higher standards than normal, but she is more forgiving with them than others. She will loosen up more around those close to her, becoming slightly cheerier and more open.

Talents
Astronomy: Mys has extensive knowledge of everything in the night sky, from the stars to the planets. She can point out any constellation, and can use the position of everything in the sky to predict certain aspects of the future.
Forecasting: Mys can normally predict the weather with around an 80% accuracy, up to the temperature and the cloud positioning. However, when she is wrong, she will spend the whole day gloomy and cynical.
Gardening: Especially skilled at working with poisonous plants and fungi, Mys can often be found in the greenhouse, tending to what she affectionately has deemed her "children". She keeps her more finicky plants in her room, and spends hours tending to them.
Hat Making: Mys makes a new hat almost every week, and is very selective with her materials. She considers her hats to be the most important part of her outfit, and is constantly modeling new hats.
Letter Writing: Everyone in the Bellyoung family is skilled at letter writing, with the children taught proper penmanship and wax stamping as soon as they can hold a pen. Mys is very picky about her stationary and wax, keeping a collection of supplies carefully organized near her desk.
Magical Catalyst
Mys typically uses the catalyst she inherited from her great-grandmother, a small dagger that slides into her boot. However, some days she will switch to her first wand, an old, wooden wand encrusted with opals and obsidian.

Bio
Mys is the eldest daughter of a prestigious family of accomplished witches from Lithuania. For thousands of years, witches were able to live alongside humans, offering protections from other supernatural creatures and spells to cure their illnesses. However, when the Medieval Age begun, many witches began to be persecuted, with whole families eventually burnt at the stake. To avoid this terrible fate, the more wealthy and successful witches banded together, creating their own village, Gerovė, hidden from view of humans and other supernaturals with a powerful invisibility spell. At first, it was a utopia for almost all witches, but as supplies and space became more limited, the village became more exclusive. In order to live there, you had to be born into one of the original twelve families, and pass what was called "Tyrimai", or the Trials; a series of magicals tests one must pass at the age of 13 to become a true member of the village.
From birth, Mys was prepared for the Trials, devoting almost every waking moment to training. While Mys became very knowledgable about all forms of magic, she struggled to apply her knowledge to her own spells, failing over and over again. Her family became increasingly worried, but they just continued to train her, hoping things would resolve themselves before the Trials. Eventually, the day came, and while Mys threw everything into the Trials, she ultimately failed. As a result, she was banished from the village. With nowhere to turn, Mys packed her belongings into a charmed suitcase, and begun to make her way through Europe. Eventually, she ended up at BellaDonna's door.
While she spent her first few months at BellaDonna's hidden away and constantly studying her craft, BellaDonna was able to slowly coax her out of her room and into the rest of the world. Mys found herself opening up a bit more with her, almost looking up to her as a mother figure. It was BellaDonna's insistence that she branch out from teaching herself to receiving a more formal education that led to her enrolling in Archmouth, paying tuition with the funds she makes from her lucrative horoscope and fortune telling letter service. In the three years she has been at BellaDonna's Mys has become increasingly fond of the place, though her goal of returning to Gerovė and proving herself to her family is always hanging over her head.
