Appearance
Light brown eyes, striking face, voluptuous figure. Her tail is that of a gold and white butterfly koi fish, with long and delicate white fins. She is, in a word, eye-catching.
Personality
Flamboyant, dramatic, loves to entertain. Calliope was born to be the center of attention, and she knows it. She gets jealous easily if others steal her thunder, intentionally or not. She is also quite generous with her affections and resources, preferring to share what she has rather than keep it to herself. Extroverted and adventurous, Calliope loves hearing stories and retelling them to the next person, usually in song. She loves beautiful things and can be a bit too materialistic at times.
History
Calliope had a joyous childhood, mostly in the company of her mother, Selah. She was relatively sheltered in the Underwater City and did not have many interactions with humans until she became an adult. Her mother, Selah, was an accomplished and world-renowned bard who gave up her life of performing to raise her daughter at the age of 26. Calliope grew up without a father but had many parental figures in the form of aunts and uncles, friends of Selah in the Underwater City. She grew to have the same talent in music as her mother, and from her, Calliope learned much of what she knows today.
Calliope began to clash with her mother around the age of 16, when she wanted to learn about who her father was and explore more of the world. Selah was overprotective of Calliope and secretive about her reasons for this; she refused to speak of Calliope's father, and this caused much tension between them for a time. Their relationship deteriorated further as Calliope rebelled as much as she could, and Selah became ever more strict in response. It took a brutal pirate attack on the merfolk from which Selah simply couldn't protect Calliope that made her realize that no place was truly safe for her daughter, and it was best to let her live her life as she wished. The pair mended their relationship afterwards, and Selah passed on her lyre to Calliope, telling her to go explore the world and follow her dreams to be a bard like her mother.
Other
Calliope's instruments of choice are her voice and her lyre, which is made of treated honey gold wood and inlaid with mother of pearl. Her name is pronounced with emphasis on the I: Cuhl-EYE-opee.
