Personality:
History: (BEFORE CURSE) Megara was the only child born to Euterpe, a very poor peasant girl, who lived in the great City of Mount Olympus, in the land of Olympia, located not far from the Enchanted forest. Euterpe raised her little girl alone for the most part, with only a little help with her best friend Cyanea, as Meg's father was never in the picture. Lord Alkaios was a highborn noble, who wanted absolutely nothing to do with the bastard child born to his once mistress, even if the child was his own blood. As soon as he'd found out Euterpe was pregnant, he'd turned her back out onto the streets, and she hadn't heard from him since. And so, Meg would never meet her father, though, after hearing the story of how she came to be born, she never really wanted to. Why did she need some stuck up man who didn't want her anyway? She was just fine without this unknown father. Her mother gave her enough love for that of ten parents, despite how little they had, Meg always had a relatively happy childhood.
Unfortunately, when Meg was 11 years old, her mother was killed by being run over by a runaway horse pulled chariot. Meg was completely destroyed, her mother was everything to her. Her mother's best friend Cyanea, took her in and raised her from that point, and though Meg loved her, it just wasn't the same. From that point on, a part of Meg would always be closed off, she couldn't help it. When Meg was about 16 years old, the Prince of Olympia, Adonis, noticed her in the streets and was taken with her beauty. He started seeking her out, and wooing her, much in the way that her father had once done for her mother, and Meg, being young and still naive, made the mistake of falling for him.
One day, someone tried to assassinate the king, using poison, but Adonis drank from the cup instead. As he lay there dying, Meg was desperate, so she went to a very powerful sorceror named Hades, and begged for his help, begged him to save the Prince. Hades agreed, but for a high price, he wanted her to trade herself into his service as a slave. Believing that she loved Adonis, and that he loved her in return, and not being able to let him die, Meg foolishly agreed. If she had known that shortly after she'd saved his life, Adonis would grow bored with her, and replace her with a new girl, Meg may have made a different choice. But alas, that is what happened, leaving Meg completely destroyed, and made her begin to resent men, and distrust them.
Hades on the other hand, was pleased by these events, because he wanted Meg for himself, and not just as his slave. But Meg no longer wanted romance of any kind, and continuously refused him, to his displeasure. She just wanted to get through the three years as a slave that she'd traded for Adonis's life, and go home to her godmother. Hades had hoped that over time she would be persuaded, but that would not be the case, as he'd soon find out.
One day, just as Meg's 3 years of servitude were almost done, she met a man named Hercules. She was caught in a bad situation with a man, a bad man, who owed Hades money. She had been sent to collect the money, but the man was drunk, and refused to give her the money. And then, he tried to take advantage of her, but Meg, being more resourceful than she looked, stabbed him in the side with her dagger. Unfortunately, he was stronger than her, and in his anger, grabbed her, took the dagger and threw it, and backhanded her hard. Who knows what else he would have done after that if he hadn't been stopped. But thankfully, Hercules appeared at just the right time, and saved her.
At first Meg was resentful that a man had saved her, insisting that she had been fine with out him, and tauntingly calling him "Wonder Boy", but eventually that would change. After Hades heard the story of what had happened, when she came back without his money, he decided he was going to try and use Meg to get information on Hercules. A seer had told him that the only person who could stop him from killing his greatest enemy, another, though one who only practiced good magic, named Zeus, was a man named Hercules. He told Meg that this would be her last job, and then she was free, so she agreed.
But while she was pretending to get close to Hercules for Hades, something she hadn't expected happened, she actually fell in love with him. Telling Hades that she refused to help him any more, and that Hercules had no weaknesses anyway, she said that she was done with working for him. Hades realized then, that Hercules did have a weakness, Meg. And so, he told Hercules that if he didn't interfere with his fight with Zeus, he wouldn't kill Meg. At first Hercules gave in, not wanting anything to happen to Meg, but Meg, out of guilt, told him the truth about Hades using her against him, and begged him to forget what Hades had said, and go stop him.
Thankfully they made it there in time for Hercules to save Zeus. In Hades anger, he went to grab Meg, but Zeus used his magic, making him disappear. They knew better than to think he was gone for good, but for the time being, he was gone. Meg and Hercules stayed together happily for about five years, and Meg was truly happy for the first time in her life, after finally finding a man that truly loved her. But unfortunately, something would soon disrupt their happiness.
Hades returned, and somehow, he managed to trick Hercules into believing his cousin was alive in the Enchanted Forest, and needed his help. And so, leaving Meg behind, Hercules immediately set out after her. Hades had thought that once Hercules was gone, it would finally be his chance to claim Meg for himself, whether she liked it or not, but something he hadn't counted on happened. Not being able to bear staying behind without him, in the middle of the night Meg packed a small bag, and taking only that and her horse midnight, she set out and went after him. She made it to the Enchanted forest not long after Hercules did, but before she could find and reunite with him, the evil queen's curse hit, sending them all to Storybrooke.
(DURING CURSE) While in Storybrooke, during the curse, Meg was known as Mimi Koyle. Mimi was an orphan, and for the most part a loner, only really befriending a select few people. She was an extreme flirt, and sometimes had a habit of having one night stands and short flings. She didn't trust men enough to get into a committed relationship, because her exboyfriend used to beat her up. Recent days though, most men know better than to mess with her if she doesn't want to be messed with, because she learned to defend herself real well. She worked as a singer at a local bar.
(AFTER CURSE) Since the curse broke Meg has mostly been trying as hard as she can to find Hercules.
Likes: Hercules, her godmother Cyanea, singing, doing things for herself/being independent, making her own clothes
Dislikes: nobles/royals, being underestimated, her father (though she has never met him), Hades,
Roleplay Example: See Ophelia
Lastly... Where did you hear about us? See Ophelia
