Allegience He is undecided on who exactly to follow, but must act as if he has faith put into one of the names he could be allied with. Naturally, he has found himself to lean towards following Elphaba's path and choices in life, but disliking some of her decisions.
Appearance: Meikan stands just under an average height of 5'9" with an above average body figure. Working out has helped with developed muscles built on his arms and stomach. His hair color varies depending on the time of year, his skin being close to a pale-white. It wouldn't show that he spent plenty of his time in the Emerald City when you look at his fashion choices. He manages to look good by dressing simpler than what would be expected.
Picture: Here.
Sexual Orientation Gay
Background History: Like many of the students attending Shiz, Meikan was born in the Emerald City. Due to the fact his teenage parents had a child at such a young age, his Gillikinese-mother Annesta's parents forbid her to return back into Munchlinland. Annesta was forced to raise Meikan by herself without any help from her parents or Kylon. Back in Munchkinland, Kylon was told that Annesta miscarried and blamed him. This left Annesta to raise their son and Kylon to think he didn't have one.
Meikan grew up as an only child to a single mother and like many young boys, took a liking into The Wizard and his mystical ways. He was ten when he started hearing stories of the green girl who mutilated animals of The Wizard and then flew away on a broomstick so many years ago. He was in awe at this because he had always wanted to fly but, obviously, was never successful. Three years of his life went by and even more rumors spread around. For most of that time he questioned his faith in The Wizard. Some said that this witch was a terror to the land while others said she was a saint working for a better life for Animals. Meikal hadn't heard too much about these Animals that people spoke of. His mother told him that the last of the Animals teaching at Shiz was dismissed from the faculty just before the green girl's name was tainted.
Meikal's interest in this girl and her story became larger as he heard more on the streets. Due to this, his mother had to confess to him that she had met her quite some time ago, although she refered to her as Elphaba. Because Meikal's father was from Munchkinland and she would sneak away there to see him, she had met Elphaba once with Kylon. Annesta told Meikan that it seemed Elphaba was very good inside and simply cursed with tragidy.
Shortly after he turned thirteen he heard news of the Wizard leaving Oz as well as Elphaba's death. Since then he's been reading up on books about sorcery and magic in hopes of someday becoming the next Wizard, but working towards causes similar to Elphaba's.
Personality Traits/Flaws: Meikan is a funloving, carefree guy. His compassion and love for nearly everything has left him a softy at heart. He is very outgoing and feels everyone should have equal status whether they're 'popular' or not. He tries to remain as casual and easy-going as he can, but sometimes his actions just flop out all evidence of that.
He is very accepting most of the time, but if there is something he really believes in that is being put down he will speak his mind to whoever disagrees with him.
His desire to become the next Wizard has left his mind open to new ideas and ways to make people happy. Unlike The Wizard, he wishes to fight for what Elphaba fought for.

Writing Sample Meikan sat at a lonesome table in the library looking at a collection of papers spread out across the wooden surface. Random notes and scratches littered the faces of the paper with small drawings strewn about among the mess. The largest piece of paper had a timeline drawn upon it with dates marked such as Elphaba's death, Dillamond's termination and Elphaba arrives at Shiz. Most of the things put on the timeline were based on what he heard from other people, but he was trying to piece things together to find out what exactly happened to the poor green girl. He sat back in his chair and let out a sigh, rubbing his eyes free of soreness caused by the constant writing. His efforts to put together a timeline of Elphaba's run at Shiz was coming along, but was far from being complete.
