Physical Description
In her Faerie form, Aliya is a lightly tanned girl with semi-bright purple hair and soft light brown eyes. While she does initially possess clear oval-shapes wings, her wings no longer physically exist after she is relentlessly bullied by a group of changelings in her youth.

Because of this, her wings become artificially made, gaining the occasional sparkle under the full moon. In her casual attire, Aliya's hair is neatly layered on top of her shoulders as she is surrounded with her gadgets on her bronze T-shirt, grey shorts, tall brown boots and fully-covered black gloves, replacing her favorite strapless black gloves when her experimentation with iron resulted in her hands having various scars.

When possessed by Erebus, Aliya's light brown eyes and the gemstone on the Avalonian necklace Castor temporarily lend her turns black as well. Otherwise, everything else regarding her appearance remains the same.

In her human state/form, Aliya's semi-bright purple hair will become replaced with a jet-black color while her wings disappear, leaving a deep scar of where her real wings were ripped off her. While her soft hazel eyes remain the same, her hair will grow longer, now touching her shoulders midway.

Furthermore, her outfit becomes replaced to blend in with the humans in her area. As a result, Aliya now wears a black long-sleeved crop-top and black-laced pants on normal days while her school attire consists of a long-sleeved light beige shirt that is tucked beneath her navy blue pants.

Aliya's true Avalonian form and her Queen attire will soon-be-developed. Until then, these two particular forms are considered a mystery.

Does your character suffer from any mental illness(es)?
Situational Depression [later on] - a short-term, stress-related type of depression. It can develop after a person experiences a traumatic event and/or series of events. Situational depression is a type of adjustment disorder. It can make it hard for you to adjust to your everyday life following a traumatic event. It's also known as reactive depression {copied from Google}.

Does your character suffer from any disorders, if any? If so, list them.
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder/PTSD [though she refuses to admit it at first until later on] - A serious condition that can develop after a person has experienced or witnessed a traumatic or terrifying event in which there was serious physical harm or threat. PTSD is a lasting consequence of traumatic ordeals that cause intense fear, helplessness, or horror {copied from Google}.

Does your character suffer from an allergy and/or allergies, if any?
While in her human state, Aliya has developed a small allergy to pigeons [particularly, their feathers]. Though not life-threatening, she tends to sneeze whenever a feather falls on her. It is unclear if this allergy will carry onto her Avalonian state in the future or vanish completely upon returning to her normal form.

Does your character own any pet(s)? If so, list them.
While not necessarily hers, Aliya does have a Nokk (aka a water horse) which belongs to Poseidon [OC belongs to GeekyCookie1] and his family. Despite this, she has fondly named her equally mischievous buddy, 'Angus' and bonded with him after their little misadventure together.

Relationship(s) with listed family member(s), if any
Amara Finkelstein - Despite her mother's obsession with making ship names for her and Jesse, Aliya loves her mother dearly. She aspires to be as caring, kind and graceful as her mother who embodied these traits so well. As a result, these two have a typical mother-daughter relationship but things will change as Aliya will soon lose her mother.

Issac Finkelstein - Despite her father's obsession with ship merchandise for her and Jesse, Aliya loves her father dearly. She aspires to be as compassionate and generous as her father who embodied these two traits so well. As a result, these two have a typical father-daughter relationship but things will change as Aliya will soon lose her father.

Stormy [OC belongs to GeekyCookie1] - Much like her parents, Aliya grew attached to Stormy. More so, when Stormy became labeled as a traitor, Aliya felt a deep desire to clear the woman's name as she knew Stormy was innocent. It is why at first she is initially surprised to learn Stormy is her godmother before accepting the news as Aliya didn't believe Stormy felt the same way about her.

Jaxon Kiernan-Finkelstein - As her newly adoptive sibling, Aliya genuinely shares a close relationship with Jaxon as she cares deeply for them while teasing them like any sibling would. However, Aliya's relationship with Jaxon shifts twice, alternating the bond between the two.

The first being when Jax feels betrayed by Aliya for loving Jesse and the second being Jax believing Aliya is associated with the disappearance of Lillian which forces Jaxon to turn against her and work alongside Ambrose/The Senior Fae.

As such, the two siblings reluctantly ends up becoming each other's enemy, which severed their bond for some time [though eventually, the two will make up to one another and restore their bond].

Lillian Kiernan-Finkelstein - As her newly adoptive sister, Aliya shares a genuinely close relationship with Lillian as the two share a typical sister relationship. Over time, their bond grows stronger and much like Jaxon, she becomes distraught when Lillian goes missing as she becomes the last known person to sees her. As such, she blames herself for the girl's disappearance. Because Lillian is the only sister she has, Aliya doesn't like the girl getting hurt.

Hamato Yoshi/Master Splinter - Aliya and Hamato Yoshi/Master Splinter have a typical godfather-and-goddaughter relationship though it took time for the two to grow onto each other. As a result, these two care about each other but their bond will soon be tested.

Poseidon [OC belongs to GeekyCookie1] - Initially getting on the wrong side of him at first for stealing [though in her defense, she would say borrowing] one of his water horses, over time she started seeing him as a father figure. So when Poseidon saw her as a daughter figure, she is initially surprised since Aliya didn't believe Poseidon felt the same way about her.

Personality:
To most Avalonians, Aliya is stubborn, cocky and rather prideful at times. As an act, it is due to the fact that Aliya despises feeling vulnerable since she broke down in front of her parents and Stormy [OC belongs to GeekyCookie1]. More so, she is quite mischievous and rather rebellious, having been this way since a young changeling.

Despite that, Aliya is a natural-born leader who stands up for those without a voice. She is constantly finding ways to go against the Avalon's system, which Avalonians mistake as her way of turning against The Senior Fae [though this eventually comes true]. She is also a kindhearted faerie who will always put others first, even going out of her way to sacrifice herself for her loved ones.

When under the influence of Erebus, Aliya's personality quite literally takes a different turn. She exploits her victim's weaknesses, often pointing out their fears and personal flaws. Additionally, she becomes more ruthless and sadistic, viewing the idea of killing others as a game, easily becoming disappointed if the death process is "too slow."

Additionally when Erebus takes full (as up to here has only been temporary) control of her, her personality when temporarily possessed by Erebus becomes amplified, further embracing the idea of hurting those that stand in her way.

Fears, if any:
Fear of losing her loved ones [this fear will come in effect after losing her parents]
Aquaphobia - Fear of water [copied from Google/soon-to-gain-and-overcome].
Fear of being vulnerable [currently] and fear of trusting people [later on].
Athazagoraphobia - Fear of being forgotten [copied from Google].

🄿🄴🅁🅂🄾🄽🄰🄻 🄸🄽🄵🄾🅁🄼🄰🅃🄸🄾🄽 🄿🄰🅁🅃 🄸🄸

Connection [MLB, TMNT, BOTH AND/OR NEITHER], if any:
Although Aliya is connected to both fandoms, she is mostly connected with the 2012's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles after a stunt with the Senior Fae leads her to get marked and trapped in a human form in New York City where enemies await the faerie.

Power(s) and Abilities, if any:
Flight - Like any Fae in Avalon, she has the ability to fly by using her wings. However, Aliya doesn't fly as often due to her wings being severely ripped off by a group of bullies when she was younger. Instead, she began walking on foot [which only makes the bullying and insults worse on her end] after her wings became artificial. As a human, she will not have access to this particular ability (which she won't mind).

Immunity to Magic - Despite being a low-ranking Fae, Aliya has gained the rare ability of being immune to magic. While not being completely immune to all kinds of magic, she can be immune to magic to a certain extent. As a result, Aliya is harder to control since her immunity grants her an advantage. As a human, she will have access to this particular ability.

Martial Arts - A skill briefly developed through her godmother, Stormy [OC belongs to GeekyCookie1], she will further continue this skill during her time at New York later on. Essentially though, this skill gives Aliya the basic techniques of fighting.

Avalonian Glow - Like all Avalonians, Aliya will have the ability to detect the average Avalonian in their human state by making eye contact with a person. If their eyes glow in sync with the faerie, then the Avalonian has been detected. However, stronger and powerful Avalonians [like Jesse, for example] are harder to spot. This ability only works when Aliya is in her human form.

Enhanced speed and strength - When possessed by Erebus, Aliya's speed and strength becomes enhanced. As a result, she becomes faster and stronger during the time she is under Erebus's control. She does not gain this ability outside of her possessed state.

Weakness(es), if any:
Iron - Like any Fae, Aliya has a common weakness to iron. Due to her gradual exposure to iron, she doesn't get a burning sensation (as it just comes across as numb) like the other faeries (who haven't been exposed to iron).

As revealed in Part of Your World, being exposed to iron for too long can make the girl severely weakened (i.e: dizziness, fatigue, lack of balance) to the point she dies (for a few brief moments at least) from her overexposure to the dagger of Atlas (which was made using iron).

Shorter lifespan - Aliya will quickly realize she gained a significantly shorter lifespan than when she was an Avalonian Fae during her time as a human. However, this weakness is only temporary. Once she returns to her normal form, she will no longer become burdened by this weakness.

Callbacks - Within her possessed state, Aliya's weakness is having callbacks. This may range from one of her friends snapping her out of Erebus's control to hearing certain phrases (i.e: trigger words) that momentarily allow her to snap out of her possessed state.

Pain - In her possessed state, Aliya's weakness is inflicting pain. Quite literally, Erebus is incapable of handling the pain on her body, so when she does this, Erebus violently reacts to the aftermath and she is able to break free from his influence for the time being.

Possession's Aftermath - When Aliya is freed from being under Erebus's control/being possessed by him, she always stumbles (due to a lack of balance) and feels some degree of dizziness to the point where she might potentially faint serve as the side effects for being temporarily possessed.

When Aliya becomes freed from being under Erebus's control/being possessed by him during his full control, keeping her balance is a lot harder while the dizziness intensifies to the point she just ends up blacking out -> serves as the side effects after breaking free from Erebus's full control of her.  

List of Acquired Skill(s), if any:
Martial Arts - A skill briefly developed through her godmother, Stormy [OC belongs to GeekyCookie1] she will further continue this skill during her time at New York later on. Essentially though, this skill gives Aliya the basic techniques of fighting. When Aliya returns to her normal form, this skill will carry over.

Swordsmanship - While not as skilled as mortal fencers, Aliya is capable at wielding and being an effective fighter when it comes to using a sword. However in Avalon, her sword is not made of iron since the Prince is a Fae like her. If she was given a sword with iron and/or has to use said sword, Aliya's time would become strictly limited and she has to use gloves as a way of hiding the burnt marks if she ends up going over her limit. This skill will carry over in Aliya's human state.

Leadership - While effective as a second-in-command, Aliya is shown to be a handy strategist and a strong leader at times. However during the times she has shown these traits, her acts usually go unnoticed, when given the girl's reputation and her behavior in general. As a human, this skill will carry over.

Sneakiness - Due to her reputation and her persona in general, Aliya is particularly skilled at sneaking out as she was able to go in-between Avalon and the Human Realm without getting caught on several occasions. Furthermore, this skill goes hand-in-hand with her cunning and mischievous acts. As a human, this skill will carry over.

I. "I've had my wings taken from me when I was young. I watched as a group of changelings laughed at me, taunt me then proceed to throw me over the water. So, yeah. Maybe, I was stupid for leaving Avalon and stealing a water horse, but you know what? I wasn't going to let one of Stormy's kids suffer the same fate as I did because no one deserves to be treated so cruelly. No one." [this quote mentions Stormy, an original character owned by GeekyCookie1]

II. "Ha! Did you really think your proclamation of love was going to save me? Your powers won't help you here, fairy. You're pathetic and foolish, just like your parents and your friends. Just save yourself the drama and let me kill you here." [while under Erebus's influence/control] -> Part of Your World [future quote]

III. "Castor! Are you even listening to yourself here? How can you pretend we just never happened? Are you going to pretend you and I don't have history together? You were my friend, my lover, my Captain... Okay, fine. You can fight, but I refuse to strike back because I know the Castor I loved long ago is still there."

1. Although her name was given to her from her father [who is Jewish and Arabic], Aliya physically takes after her mother [who is Colombian], which led to her human name as she found inspiration from her mother's origin. Personality-wise/mentally, she takes after both of her parents.

2. Because her godmother is Stormy/Sensei Thorn and her father figure is Poseidon [both characters owned by GeekyCookie1], Aliya serves as the bridge between the two worlds [2012's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles along with Tales of Miraculous Ladybug and Chat Noir].

3. Aliya is currently following the oblivious lover path, much like Adrien Agreste from Tales of Miraculous Ladybug and Chat Noir, Kaz from Sci-Briana17's Little Sister book, Thomas Sanders & Cordelia from the Mystery Girls fandom {created by me and GeekyCookie1 with Sci-Briana17 serving as a member} along with Luz Noceda from The Owl House. As a result, she won't realize Jesse has feelings for her until later on.

4. Because Poseidon [OC belongs to GeekyCookie1] and Aliya are only family figures to one another, she doesn't necessarily feel like she's worthy of being part of his family. As a result, her page doesn't mention his wife Diane nor does it mention his kids [Albus, Ulliam - both owned by GeekyCookie1 along with Natalie and Cleo].

5. Although Stormy/Sensei Thorn [OC belongs to GeekyCookie1] and Aliya are related to one another, Aliya doesn't feel worthy enough to be part of her godmother's family. As a result, their four sons [Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello & Michelangelo] and their two daughters [Sofonisba, owned by GeekyCookie1 and Briana, owned by Sci-Briana17] aren't listed as Aliya's siblings for this reason.

6. Much like Stormy/Sensei Thorn [OC belongs to GeekyCookie1] who was marked a traitor in her parent's generation, Aliya ended up in the same path when The Senior Fae gave her the same mark before winding up in New York City. It is unclear if their marks will ever go away, however.

7. The idea of Aliya becoming Queen and the concept of her being best friends with Hamato Michelangelo and Hamato Sofonisba came from GeekyCookie1, who also owns the original character known as Hamato Sofonisba.

8. While Aliya may look like a normal Avalonian, her wings are not real. Rather, her wings became artificially made after a near-death incident she suffered when she was younger. At first, her wings were merely an illusion, but once an illusion-gifted Avalonian saw through her fake wings, it became known to all of Avalon.

As a result, the bullying persisted, forcing Aliya and her parents to seek a permanent solution. Prior to this, she soon gain a replica of her original wings with one catch: her new, artificial wings aren't water-proof. It is unclear whether or not, she would regain her real, authentic wings upon becoming Queen.

9. Information regarding Aliya's human form, Myrilla Lani Caballero will be available in the crossover section since it just makes things easier on my end.

10. Despite her rivalry with Iris, Aliya does have (somewhat) of a soft spot for her and she seems to dance around the idea of liking her. However, this ship would most likely never advance as the two would be toxic for each other [similar to Scorpia and Catra's relationship in Netflix's She-Ra and the Princesses of Power].

Additionally once the prophecy comes true and Aliya becomes Queen, Iris becomes dead-set on avenging her father and reclaiming her right as Queen, which is why the two will strictly remain rivals.
