"Every day, I climb to the top of the mountain and play for hours in the hope that someone will find me. And then one day…you showed up."

So I just watched Abominable with my mum (Jin is beautiful and must be protected he is my baby), and a particular scene gave me an RP idea.
The scene had Yi, Jin, Peng and Everest on the top of this huge Buddha statue (I forget what it was called). Yi started to play her violin and as the shot panned out to show the expanse of mountains below them, I couldn't help but think what it would be like to hear the violin from somewhere in the mountains below. And then when Yi made the whole statue bloom with hundreds of flowers (using the violin) and then later when she uses it to rescue Everest, Jin and Peng, I had the idea of the violin having magical powers.

So I thought that that could be a really cool yet simple RP idea.
I would prefer to be the one on the mountain, because I currently have a good idea for the character and know what I'm talking about.
To make it clear: this RP would have nothing to do with the movie whatsoever. I'm simply using the movie as a very loose base for an idea.
So I'll post a template if someone wants to join.

(I'm not sure if I want it to be romance straight up: if it ends up being romance then I wouldn't really mind
First and foremost it's a simple RP, there doesn't need to be any underlying factors

So are you interested?)

(OK cool
I can't get a template up yet because I'm not on my laptop, but I'll get one up when I get back on it)

(yeah I have holidays kids club on rn and I'm gonna for the majority of the day
We had our meeting yesterday and it started today

Name: Macey Anna Leigh. She’s never known a last name.
Age: 21, a few weeks from 22
Gender: Female
Sexuality: She hasn’t been around people long enough to figure it out. If asked, she would probably say that she was questioning.
Appearance: Macey has peach skin and a wide square face. Her black hair is straight and styled into a vague bob just below her shoulders. Her eyes are a simple amber, and they appear pale blue in some lights/from some angles (this will be explained later).
Style: Anything she can get her hands on. She does have modern clothes, but she is never picky.
Personality: Quiet and reserved. She’s not used to others, and only ever talks to her dad. She isn’t very good with people. However, she is very confident and a little bit reckless. She does what she can to survive.
Likes: Violin, her father, her mother, the mountains
Dislikes: Her mother’s death, living where she is, being so isolated
Background: Ever since she was a young child, Macey has lived in the Lunar Mountains with her parents. She doesn’t remember when she didn’t live there, all of her memories are from the Lunar Mountains.
From a young age, Macey knew that she had an affinity for magic. She had a connection to nature, and she would often open her eyes to discover that they were glowing a soft pale blue. Her magic was powerful, but she was unable to control it. Her father began to teach her violin, which was an old pastime of his. They soon discovered that the violin could channel Macey’s magic, and she has never stopped using/playing it.
Macey’s mother died when she was 12. For the majority of the year, it was just Macey and her mother. Her father would be gone for months on end while working and stuff. She still doesn’t know why, but the two females would never leave where they were living. They had a very small house built in the Lunar Mountains, and Macey would often travel a short distance to the edge of a cliff to look out at the valleys.
When Macey’s mother died, not much changed. Until she was about 16, Macey’s father would spend more time at home. He wanted to look after his daughter, as he was all that she had. When he felt that she was old enough, he left for longer periods of time. When she hit 19, he was gone for most of the year. Sure, she would be happy when he returned, but she was different and he was different. They were never the same people.
As much as she hates to admit it, Macey is lonely. For 10 out of 12 months of the year, it’s just her. So, she would walk to edge of the mountain every day and play. At first, it was to simply take her mind off everything. Over time, it became a way to try and communicate with others – or anyone close enough that might hear her. The violin echoes throughout the Lunar Mountains, and even though she plays for hours, no one has ever actually found her.
Magic/Abilities: It’s sort of hard to explain. Macey can control nature, but it’s not your typical geokinesis as such. I know what I want to write, but it’s really hard to explain. All that is important is that she has is quite powerful and she uses her violin to channel it.
She's also quite skilled with a bow and arrow, as she uses it to hunt every so often. She always has a dagger on her, not just to hunt but for other things like cutting vines.

(um not many people have magic
If they have magic it's more spiritual magic than what we would think is magic
I think it will be easier to decide what's going to happen when I see your character)
