Mal is a sleepy individual who constantly looks like she's just woken up from a nap and is not entirely pleased about it. She's pretty generic looking— short, boyish black bed hair and brown eyes basically makes her a stock anime character. She has practically no chest and really doesn't care about it, and she's... basically just small. Everything about her screams small, but not at all fragile. Her body language is lazy and dismissive to the point where people are surprised that an asian girl could act so unlike the petite/pure stereotype, and she works to actively screw people over by dressing sloppily, wearing clothes that conceal her figure, and generally being a snarky little shit. Because of the way she presents herself, she is often mistaken for a boy, which she doesn't care enough to correct people about. She does not smile. She only grimaces, sneers, smirks, etc.
Mal likes to explore and hide in strange places, and as a result, she often sports cuts and bruises. She uses a lot of band aids. She tends to dress in hoodies and graphic sweaters with arcane/cryptic imagery or symbols of death.

Mal is basically a human tarantula. She is creepy and crawly and she deeply enjoys being in dark, quiet places where no one can disturb her. One could reasonably surmise that she is, in fact, a loner— and that would be absolutely correct. While she doesn't actively shun company, she doesn't seek it out, merely tolerating it when she has to. Her prickly personality ensures that she's intimidating and dislikable— things she definitely doesn't mind being. Her snark meters are literally off the charts and she will, on occasion, actively try to mess with other people for the sake of her own entertainment. She loves to tease and make fun of people.
In short, she is kind of a dick.
However, all this is more or less a defense mechanism with which she navigates the world. She's had some prime bullshit happen in her life and, at some point, she decided she wasn't going to give a fuck anymore— so thus, here she stands in all her judgmental glory, with practically no friends or anyone she can rely on— and she's perfectly fine with that. She is not a loner because of any event outside of her control— she is a loner by choice, and she has an active imagination she would much rather spend time with than other people.
To say that she hates everyone would not be completely inaccurate. For her, it's and eye for an eye, and everyone is trash until they prove themselves otherwise. Her trust is extremely hard to gain, but underneath those layers of filth and grime is a loyalty that knows no bounds. She would gladly do anything for the few people she loves and her demeanor changes— from cold to warm, caring, and playful. She goes as far as even borderline idolizing the people she hold dear, which have led to numerous conflicts. She's jealous, angry, and clingy with these people, and so she greatly limits who gets close to her both for her benefit and theirs.
Mal has issues with expressing herself. She's incredibly private and she keeps her issues to herself, which leads to unhealthy coping mechanisms— vandalizing, mostly, and also setting things on fire. She has a destructive streak not only with herself, but people around her, and when she's deeply hurt, she will lash out and block out any attempts to help until she reaches a breaking point.
She copes with depression, academic anxiety, and shows some symptoms of borderline personality disorder. Her self-image ranges from thinking she's better than everyone, and thinking she's the absolute worst thing to have come into existence since the dawn of time. Sometimes, she feels these things simultaneously— and she can't determine whether or not she's horrified or amused at her own emotions. With school, she's lazy and skips class often. She finds it difficult to pay attention and, although she is innately intelligent and observant, she has no motivation to do well. It's part of a subconscious belief that she won't make it to 21, so in her mindset, what's the point?
Mal has a strange fascination with mushrooms and plants and spends a lot of her time photographing and sketching specimens she likes. She's actually quite skilled in the ways of biology and art, although she rarely speaks about it. She carries a small sketchbook that she also uses as a scrapbook of sorts.
Powers:
Locked = currently unavailable
Latent = available, but only manifests during stress & currently not under control
DECOMPOSITION MANIPULATION
SUMMARY: Mal has control over the process of decay. With this ability, she can hasten and reverse decomposition* at will, as well as influence agents of decomposition such as mold, bacteria, and a large variety of fungi. She can cause necrosis* (most commonly gangrene) in organisms if she is in contact with them, and can also reverse the same conditions if she chooses.
[ACTIVE] AURA OF DECAY
Her latent ability to manipulate decay tends to manifest subconsciously without Mal's direct control, and so she is constantly keeping it in check to prevent mold and fungus to spread around her immediate vicinity. Her "aura" of decay is limited to a mere meter range, although her emotions can influence the strength of the aura and can possibly increase the range of her influence. Under normal circumstances, her aura is completely harmless, though an outburst may cause any plants in the vicinity to shrivel up, or any food to spoil. Due to her power constantly being active, being in the same area for long periods of time will cause mushrooms to sprout, although they will quickly die when Mal leaves. When asleep, she is unable to control her aura, and usual napping places as well as her bed are mushroom-laden. When she is angry, poisonous varieties of mushrooms tend to sprout. Otherwise, non-poisonous and edible fungi are far more common. Yes, it is completely possible to harvest mushrooms from her. Occasionally they will also grow on her body as a sign of excess magic— she can remedy this by using her magic and blowing off steam, so to say. She rarely uses her power (since it's kind of useless) and sees it mostly as an annoyance. She is not affected by mold or spores created by her own magic.
* Example: Mal comes in contact with a carcass. Her power manifests like this:
Example 2: Mal comes in contact with a human.
[LOCKED] Branch: Control over fungi. Can be used to aid her in several different tasks; for example, if she wishes to climb to a higher ground, she could create shelf mushrooms to use as stepping stones or stairs. If she wants to get back down, she can create a large puffy mushroom in order to break her fall. These will disappear at her will, but she tends to leave them there because she's lazy. She has not thoroughly explored the extent to which she can manipulate fungi as of yet. In addition, she can manipulate mushrooms and mold to release spores that have a variety of effects— from causing paralysis, inducing sleep, causing illnesses, or otherwise being poisonous. Her mushroom spores tend to make people sneeze when inhaled in large quantities. She can influence the type of mushrooms grown in her presence as well.
Biography:
Mal was a bit of a trouble maker back at home. She grew up in San Diego, California to a white father and a cambodian-chinese mother, and she has a brother with severe autism and several other conditions. She'd always been a loner, but never to the extent to which she is now— not until her parents began fighting and arguing about what to do after her sibling's diagnosis when he was around 4 years old. This caused a rift between not only her parents, but also between herself and her parents. They, for the most part, neglected her and left her to her own devices for years as they tried their best to manage with a crumbling relationship and financial trouble. Mal picked up many bad habits and became distant as well as lazy in her academics, and when her parents realized this, they became extremely strict for the majority of her middle school and freshman years.
Her magic ability was discovered when she was 13. During a particularly bad fight between her and her mother, an outburst from Mal caused a sudden outgrowth of poisonous mushrooms. No harm occurred, but Mal's mother became even colder as a result. A letter soon came in from SA, inviting Mal to study abroad, to which her mother vehemently denied.
Despite her rocky relationship with her parents, Mal's relationship with her brother was very close. Mal would take care of him when her parents were gone, and she, being playful, would experiment with her ability in order to amuse him. However, an accident occurred— she snapped once at him after mounting frustration between her parents and school and self-esteem, which caused her brother to suddenly develop gangrene in his arm. Although she was able to will it away after frantically panicking, she stopped using her magic for quite a long time.
When Mal turned 15, her father divorced her mother, taking her brother with him. That same year, Mal received yet another letter from the academy. This time, her mother consented, and she was transferred.
Despite believing that coming to a new place would give her a fresh start, the two years after her arrival found her still struggling to relate to other people and struggling with her own self perception, and so her bad habits followed her all the way from San Diego, to Starlight Academy.

* Example: Mal comes in contact with a carcass. Her power manifests like this:
- [ACTIVE] Since the corpse is already undergoing the decomposition process, she needs not be in contact with it. Simply being in her presence is enough to speed up decay.
- [LOCKED] If she wanted to, however, she could increase the speed until all organic material is gone.The process still takes time; to completely decompose a fresh corpse of a cat, she would require about 15 minutes. Smaller organisms take less time, while larger organisms take more time.
- [LOCKED] She can also reverse the decaying process, which is largely the same process as hastening it. However, she cannot bring organisms back to life. Once she leaves, any organism she has restored to a "fresh" state will begin to decompose again.
Example 2: Mal comes in contact with a human.
- [LATENT] Necrosis will occur in a 6 inch radius of the point of contact, specifically in the form of gangrene. Prolonged direct contact will cause the necrosis to spread. The affected area will act as if it has undergone a severe loss of blood, killing the tissue in said area. This causes the tissue to decay. Gangrene causes the skin to take on an unpleasant, almost rotted look, with the surface turning black, purple, or green.
- [LOCKED] Infection: due to the bacteria under her control, open wounds will be infected, which can lead to other health complications.
- [LOCKED] She can heal infections and gangrene by simply reversing the process.
- [LOCKED] With animals, she can kill them indirectly by blood poisoning caused by the gangrene.
