Real Name: Chrinn Chrinn grew up on her home world of Vada, but couldn't wait to get off it. Obsessed with the rest of the galaxy and its history, she managed to make it through thirdschool and get herself off her rather boring planet and off to university study on Garna, where she studied archeology obsessively and experienced all the new races and cultures, by way of her schoolmates, that she'd always dreamed of. After graduation she joined with an archeology group that traveled the outer worlds of the Realm, and had many adventures on their ship and on the many planets she got to explore. One of those planets was Connyn, a long-dead world that was wiped out by an unknown plague. She and her team were exploring the lost world when, setting off on her own, she discovered a hidden temple in the thick jungle. And in it, a hidden chamber. And in that, a mysterious, glowing gem that seemed to call to her. As she picked it up and started at it, transfixed, it began to float above her hand, and suddenly it shot forward and embedded itself in her chest. Chrinn lost consciousness, and during her slumber she received visions of the Connyn that was, a world steeped in the mystical, where men and women communed with the supernatural. She saw that, after thousands of years of peace, two great nations rose up against one another in a great mystic war...one that decimated the world and its people with the final release of a forbidden death spell that grew beyond the great caster's control. Her vision also took her back into the world's far past, to an ancient time long before the great civilization it would become. The then-united people faced an invasion from beyond, and turned to a great mystic protector spell. Encompassed in the gem she had found was this sentient spirit, and it chose a worthy vessel in a young man to wield its power. The gem joined with him and gave him great mystical power, and the power to split himself into four beings. He fought off the barbaric invasion and saved the Connyn, becoming their savior and hero until the end of his days. On his passing, the gem fell from his lifeless chest, and it was kept safe by the people until another day of great need would arrive. They would then call upon the gem, and it would choose its vessel once more, and a new defender would rise. That was, until there were no Connyn left after the great war. The gem remained hidden in the temple where it was kept for near a thousand years. Until Chrinn found and awakened it. When she finally rose from her trance sleep, Chrinn found the gem lodged in her chest, and felt stronger and more alive than she ever had. And she soon discovered that, just like the protectors in her visions, she could split into four of herself. The "core" her was very strong and tough. Her other three selves had mystical powers of speed, light and dark, respectively. It seemed she had become the gem's new champion. She kept this fact to herself for some time, not quite sure what to think of it, but a rail transport disaster on a Realm world she was visiting caused her to act on instinct and rush to action. All four of her saved countless lives, and word of her and her exploits spread quickly. She began to feel a responsibility to use her abilities to help others and protect those unable to protect themselves. She began adventuring around the Realm, making both friends and enemies (of those who would harm or exploit other beings), and when the Realmsovereign himself heard about her, his intrigue drew him to find her and offer her a place on the Realmwatch. Leaping at this chance to continue to help others and see the galaxy, the young woman from Vada became Meta4 and entered into Realm service. Easily the most accessible and personable member of the team, Meta4 is energetic, outgoing, adventurous, and hungry for new experiences and new knowledge. She continues her love of history by often immersing herself for hours in study in the throneworld archive--all four of her, which allows her to absorb their gained knowledge when she unites again. She's very popular with the people of the Realm, and very happy to have a chance to aid them and defend the Realm. |
