Profile
Midori Nakashima, nicknamed "Melody" for reasons obscure, is not fine. Her history leading up to her recent move to Lunarvale and subsequent enrollment into St. Hermelin for her second year of high school is rife with odd stories from when she lived in Sumaru and Port Island. Though she avoids talking about her past, Midori is often very eager to integrate herself with just about anyone, enjoying a healthy social life for a girl her age (almost obsessively so). She shows promise with textile-related crafts and otherwise is doing quite well academically. Yet, it's hard to ignore that she's on good terms with the very worst to have ever walked St. Hermelin's halls. She isn't forthcoming as to why... or even to a lot of questions some people may have.

Appearance
Midori Makashima is a sixteen year old Japanese girl who stands at an average height, with long brown hair that seems to darken somewhat the further down it goes. It's hard to really say much of anything about her face or her brown eyes, if only because they're so... nondescript. Ordinary.
On school days she wears the usual light gray uniform for her school, St. Hermelin. Her skirt is far longer than uniform policy dictates - the mark of a delinquent - but she treats this more as a concession of modesty rather than as an act of defiance. Her black leather shoes bear no particularly distinguishing qualities beyond color and make. She seems content to wear a dark brown thick-collared long-sleeved shirt under the top part of her uniform, baggy and thick enough that it's very difficult to say much of anything about the shape of her body, beyond that she is of average height and female. She tends to keep her hands hidden in thin white gloves, as if trying to expose the least amount of skin possible. Even when she's not going to school, her clothes generally follow the pattern of 'too long, too much.'
Due to her interests, she is often seen carrying around some sort of cloth or another - or maybe even a recently finished work, be it a quilt, clothes, rugs, or whatever else imaginable. She seems fine carrying them around, even when there's a lot of it.

Personality
Midori is generally a very cheerful person who seems eager to hang out with just about anyone and do nearly anything. She enjoys a healthy social life in spite of... several oddities, the natures of which are sometimes hard to put a finger on. She always wears a high volume of clothing no matter the weather, and seems to have some very bad luck with cellphones and electronics in general (she always claims hers is either broken or missing). She is the type of person that seems able to get along with virtually everyone... including people that are incredibly dangerous and nasty. She is very prone to dodging questions that shed any sort of light on her peculiarities.
I feel so much hpapeir now I understand all this. Thanks!
Shadow
Apate, Midori's Shadow, was one of many of Nyx's children in Greek mythology. She was one of the evils whom escaped Pandora's box when it was opened, and was the personification of deceit. Her Roman counterpart, Fraus, was the origin of the word 'fraud.'
Apate takes the form of a seemingly headless ghost wearing a long sleeveless white robe of some sort. The headlessness is an illusion - its hair casts something of an invisibility effect, anything underneath it appearing as though it isn't there. It is possible to see two little white eyes and a long nose when it is in motion. A collar made of a thousand pins and needles of different lengths, colors, and make are able to be seen around neck level no matter which angle someone looks upon them with. An odd cloth circulates around the robe, distorting light into bizarre colorful patterns. It seems there might be nothing inside the robe, giving the illusion of it floating, but the robe constricts around an apparently morbidly obese figure when the creature is in significant distress.
Midori is immune to Resonance-based detection, in so far as being detected as a Shadow - she always reads as an ordinary and normal person (which is sometimes a detriment to its intended purpose of hiding her nature). As a Shadow, if she is sufficiently riled any sort of resonance detection may pick up some incredibly weird and nonsensical (but ultimately false) readings.
