“Should they inquire of the Dead on account of the Living?”
― Isaiah, Isaiah (Bible #23), ESV
"Metahuman" is a term coined by the regular humans, and used to describe any human being with what are commonly described as "super powers".
The prefix meta-, in this context, simply means "beyond"—as in metastable, which is "beyond regular stability; ready to collapse at the slightest disruption", or metamorphosis, which is "the state of going beyond a single shape". So, "metahuman" simply describes persons and/or abilities beyond normal human limits.
Ariaya is a categorized level 4 metahuman, which is the second highest level of metahuman one can be. Since majority of the earth is populated by animals, and she is in control of those animals completely, she could very easily make the world a living hell for humans if she wanted to. She is capable of communicating, controlling and taming animals against their own will. She is also capable of morphing into animals, making her easy to dissapear in a crowd if she wanted to.
|ANIMAL MANIPULATION|
Animal Control/Domination/Friendship: She is capable of controlling animal, and taking over their decisions, so if she for example wanted a tiger to attack someone, she could simply place that thought in the tigers head. She also is capable of befriending any animal because she can hear their thoughts and understand them, this makes her completely capable of befriending just about any animal in the world.
Corocottakinesis: In short this means that she is capable of taking on abilities that otherwise belongs to animals, meaning she can alter herself to have similar features and strengths of animals. Whether it be sharp claws, teeth, tougher skin or whatever. However, unlike her older brother who can mimic any type of material or whatever he wants, she is only capable of taking that of an animal's.
Thiriokinesis: This is the ability to manipulate the behavior of animals, but it also includes the ability to summon animals at her will, no matter the distance. She can summon creatures from far away jungles, and they will do whatever needed to get to her. She doesn't use this ability often, but when she was younger she had a habit of summoning zoo-animals, as she didn't like them being caged, her parents did not particularly approve of a sudden tiger appearing at the apartment complex.
Zoopathy: The ability to read and understand animals thoughts and languages. There isn't an animal in the world that she can't understand, and majority of her childhood she spend befriending and talking to animals rather than human beings, making her appear extremely anti-social. To her everything any animal says to her just sound like regular english, and she often forgets that not everybody understands what they are saying.
Ariaya can control animals behavior, she can set stampedes onto attackers, get animals to fetch things. Ariaya can call forth hoards of rats or insects to wipe out a crop, or to encourage bees to replant it.
Animal Empathy: She can feel animals emotions if they are close to her, and this often makes her very upset if she feels that an animal is suffering, but as she has gotten older she has also realized that she can't save every animal in the world, no matter how much she would want to.
Animal Scrying: If an animal is close, she can see through their eyes and what they are seeing, through her own eyes. Sometime she uses this ability if she needs to see something from high above or low from the ground, where she otherwise wouldn't be able to see anything.
Mind Link: She has a bond with most animals, and can communicate with them solely through thoughts and feelings.

Personality
“A person’s greatest limitations are not genetic,
but imposed by self-doubt, insecurities, indecision, and timidity.”

I'm afraid I won't get out of this alive
Ariaya, commonly referred to as "Ari" - is easily one of the most timid and quiet individuals you will ever come across in life. Her parents often joke that she practically came out of the womb well-mannered, because she never speaks in inappropriate situations, she's always the first person to start doing the chores if there are any, and she cooks and cleans the tables for anyone else. Compared to her older brother Nicky, there is close to no resemblance between the two in personality. Whilst he is chaotic, positive and outgoing, she is soft-spoken, quiet and politically correct. She takes after her father quite a lot, though for the most part she is also completely different from him in personality.
For majority of her childhood and teenage years, she wasn't the most out-going person. When she was younger she struggled with getting attatched to humans rather than animals, as she fundamentally understood animals better than humans. With animals she could hear their thoughts, feel their emotions, she understood them on a deeper level, and humans she didn't know just seemed foreign to her. She wasn't really the popular person that her brother was, or well atleast not on her own most of what popularity she had came from her last names. For majority of her school-life she has always been known as an over-achiever, who for the most parts would rather stay home and do homework and stay ahead, rather than to go out with friends.
Early on in life she showed great interest in cooking, as her father used to sit on top of the kitchen table and entertain her with his cooking skills, and as she grew old enough to join in, she did it with great enthusiasm. She also mainly grew up vegan, as her link with animals just completely made her incapable of eating anything related to animals. But because of her diet, she discovered there really wasn't a whole lot of cooks out there who made gourmet-vegan food that just about anyone was interested in. So she took a degree in cooking, and invested a good portion of her trust-fund into starting her own restaurant, and within three years after opening she received her first Michelin star for it. But Ari, as previously told, has always been an over-achiever, so soon she started studying to be veterinarian on the side as she also wanted to do something where she could put her abilities to use.
When it comes to love however, Ari is downright oblivious. Her entire experience in love can be dated back to freshmen year of high school, where she danced with Scott Miller at homecoming, and stepped on his toes and later in the evening making out with one of the more popular girls. It's not that she's decided since that she isn't interested, she is just completely incapable of flirting or anything remotely close to it, and anything anyone does it with her it flies completely over her head. Somebody could be standing right across from her and saying how beautiful she is, and she wouldn't notice at all.
Ari all in all is an opinionated little lady, which anyone could find out rather quickly. She's not one who holds back on what she thinks of a situation, and will often also correct people if they say something she thinks is wrong, rather it be facts, logic, opinions or just plain grammar, she will correct you. She is often nicknamed by her brothers 'no fun' or 'the nun' because of her strict mannered personality, and because it takes a miracle to get her to laugh over anything. In reality the two only people who can make her laugh is her father and her older brother Nicky, the rest of time she really doesn't think most things are funny. -

Don't you know that i'm delicate?
________________
Ariaya Annenkova Musgrave was born on the 17th of december, a couple of weeks two early of her estimated birth. Though her birth in itself was rather easy, the times that she was born in was most stressful for her mother, which was why her birth resultated in an early birth. She was a bit on the smaller side when she came out, but it wasn't something her parents nor her uncle who was their doctor was worried about, as the small figure was something that ran in the family from her mothers side.
Ari was a lot more timid and quiet than her brother in her early years, she didn't say much, didn't cry much, didn't really do much in general and was a rather easy child. Whereas her brother needed to be entertained a lot of the time as a baby and child, you could easily put her in a stroller, high chair or strap her on your belly and she wouldn't say anything or need any other entertainment than just being able to look at people. There's a running joke in the family that she was born with good manners, because she always been that child who did whatever people told her to do, and sometimes even before she was told too. Early on she was catched on pretty quickly to her parents doing chores, and she just sort of started copying her, which often made them laugh to see a tiny toddler running around picking stuff up from the floor and putting it back in place.
During her teen years she was incredibly efficient too, and was the type to always cancel plans with friends if there was homework waiting to be done. She was popular due to her name in high school, which automatically meant that people wanted to be her friends simply to get close to her famous father and mother, but she wasn't really interested and wasn't the most sociable person either. She struggled for a while with preferring animals over humans, because she understood them better, and this often alienated her from her piers, but her older brother Nicky was always good to keep her grounded and pull her back into social activities when she lost touch. Since they were born within the same year, they've always been close even though he is 11 months older than he, but they've done everything together in their life, school, growing up, college, everything.
When Ari finished high school she got an education i cooking, and used a good portion of her trustfund from her parents to invest in starting up a restaurant that focused on making gourmet vegan food, that anybody - even meat-eaters - would enjoy. She did exceptionally well with it, and managed to earn a Michelin star within three years. At the same time on the side during the nights she started studying to be a veterinarian also, as she wanted to do something useful with her abilities as well.
