Personality: Lumi often acts as if he's better than those around him, making fun of their flaws whenever he sees an opportunity. He's simply hit rock bottom, and feels the need to put others down to bring himself up. He considers himself tough, and tries to hide any form of weakness, but in his newer diminutive state, he has little luck with that. He's easy to read and has trouble hiding his emotions, further throwing his tough guy image out the window. It's easy to get a rise out of him, and hard not to torment him, due to a combination of his many problems and his need to point out other's. His appearance makes him easily mistaken for a kid, and his childish behaviour doesn't help. Despite what he tells those he meets, he is completely helpless. He's always considered relying on others to make people weak, but in his current state, he needs a lot of help and is completely ashamed of himself for it. Lumi hates his appearance and height, and will try almost anything to change back. He also refuses to look in mirrors and resents his reflection, trying hard to pretend he's still normal. His curse has also left him with a serious fear of mermaids, to the point where simply seeing one is enough to make him cry. Although he would never admit it, the best word to describe him would probably be pathetic. He'd always had his life made in the shade, and when it was stripped from him, he had no friends to turn to. He will even stoop so low as to try stealing from others and going against his previous beliefs of what was right or wrong. He bottles up the fact that he's desperate and pathetic, pretending he's better than everyone, but deep down he knows the truth, he just doesn't want to admit it.

Special Abilities: Lumi's curse made him into a jellyfish person, and while it provided loads of downsides, it also gave him some of the abilities a jellyfish might have.

Stingers: The ends of the two longer tentacles protruding from his bell (a bell is the top part of a jellyfish that doesn't sting) are lined with stinging cells. The only problem is that they only become active when he is genuinely terrified. The stinger needs to make direct contact with skin to have an effect, and will not work on something with thicker skin or thick scales, such as a dragon. It's actually a pretty painful sting, and can make someone feel really sick after an average of just thirty minutes. The effects can last anywhere from a few hours to days, depending on who was stung.

Antivenom Blood: Lumi's blood is clear rather than red, and is mainly made up of water, but it actually functions as an incredible cure for venom and poison alike. It gives him an immunity to getting poisoned, and can be extracted to cure others of both his own sting's effects, or the effects of a different poison. Although he isn't too keen on having it extracted, so it would probably have to be done by force.

Bio Luminescence: Lumi glows in the dark at times, but doesn't know why or when he will glow. He glows when he's nervous, but he has yet to make that connection.

Boneless: Lumi uses water pressure rather than bones, allowing him to squeeze into or through small places that would otherwise seem impossible.Sadly, because of this, he can't walk or even stand if he gets too dehydrated. If it gets really bad, he will essentially become a regular jellyfish on land.

Backstory: Lumi lived a rather dull ordinary life. He grew up with his parents in a home just south of Adeluna city, where they created fancy pottery, dishes, cutlery, cups and other similar items, and sold them to shops within Adeluna. Once he turned eighteen, his parents left to set up shop in another area, leaving him stay and take over. Lumi made no friends, and made sure that he didn't need help from anyone, getting by just fine by himself. He kept up the same routine for a few months, before the event that ruined his perfect life happened. He was just going to get supplies from markets in the city, when a short girl bumped into him and almost made him drop a large pot. He was quick to yell "watch out pipsqueak" without realising that she was a powerful mermaid, and quickly paid the price. she muttered a curse under her breath, and left him a foot shorter than she was, with a rather fishy appearance. He was too busy freaking out to see where she went, but heard "have a nice life, pipsqueak" before she disappeared. It was all downhill from there. He could no longer carry many of the pots he used to make, let alone create them. The tools and everything he'd used before was impossible to use in his weak form. He was no longer able to make money, and no longer able to pay his landlord taxes. Losing both his job and his home, which were the only two things he had. Nobody knew him before, so he couldn't even prove to anyone what had happened. Now he's alone and desperate, resorting to petty crimes just to stay alive.
