Occupation: Archeologist
Physical Description: River stands at just under 5'7 in bare feet, though she'll often wear shoes with little heals on, so she's closer to 5'9 most of the time. Her most memorable feature is probably her hair - her head of dark blonde, corkscrew-curls made her look at least half an inch taller and hover at her shoulders, except the odd occasion when she pulls it back into a ponytail. River has sparkly, grey-green eyes, with a hint of brown around the pupil. She holds herself like she owns the world and comes off as a confident who knows what they're doing.
River doesn't stick to one style of clothing, and can be seen wearing a range of attire to fit her situation. From dressers to jumpsuits, denim to coats, this girl suits anything and has pulled off every bad outfit in the book, at one point or another.
Personality: River, unlike the shy and innocent little girl she was in her first incarnation, has a strong will and knows how to use it, withstanding every bit of training she'd went through and saving the Doctor's life, despite being brought up to murder him (she still did this, but saved him afterwards). Like Amy, she's cheeky and extremely flirtatious, even when married and deeply in love with the Doctor, and flirted with Hitler's soldiers and the prison guards. She can be quite vain, and very willing to take revenge for her parents and the Doctor when she feels it's necessary, being able to make a Dalek beg for mercy after killing the Doctor.
Once upon a time, River was quite selfish, willing to give the entire universe to protect her husband, though she soon grew to the very opposite, giving her life for the Tenth Doctor. She rarely shows her feelings and is very hard to intimidate, as she showed little to no fear when facing an array of alien threats, though this is helped by her confidence in her own abilities and her great level of self-control. She has a stubborn streak wide enough to be seen from space, and often teases the Doctor, poking fun at him whenever she gets the chance.
Like her father, Rory, River is compassionate and responsible. She was very at ease being kept in prison, though this may be because she could break out at any time, very easily, 'as if the walls weren't there'. Along with being rather vain and a bit of a show-off, she was well-adapted to following the Doctor's train of thought, to such an extent that she could often explain it to others. She has a habit of avoiding answering questions by answering one from earlier in the conversation. River can hold herself well under pressure and isn't easily panicked, so she's an ideal person to have by your side in a crisis.
History: River Song was born Melody Pond, to Amy Pond and Rory Williams. She was conceived on the TARDIS, during it's flight through the Time Vortex, giving her Time Lord qualities, such as the ability to fly the TARDIS and regenerate. She was born on Demon's Run, after her mother had been kidnapped by Madame Kovarian and was replaced with a doppelganger. When the Doctor and Rory came after them, Melody herself was stolen and trained by the Silence to kill the Doctor, becoming incredibly strong due to experiments. These times are difficult for River to remember, due to the Silence's memory-erasing powers.
While she was still a little girl, she ended up under heavy guard in an orphanage in Florida in 1969, where she was forced into an Apollo astronaut suit, which had been ungraded with alien technology by the Silence. The suit's communication faculties automatically put her in touch with President Richard Nixon, the highest authority it could find, via the phone closest to him when young Melody was frightened. This led to meeting the Eleventh Doctor for the first time, other than has a doppelganger. She fled after forcing her way out of the suit, before dying of a terminal illness and regenerating in January 1970.
River then become Mels, a child in Leadworth in the 1990's, around the same time as her parents. She still used the name Melody, going by Mels for short, and was a close childhood friend of her parents, who reared her without knowing. She was often in trouble, having a record for stolen property and often stealing buses and cars in her adolescence. She was obsessed with Amy's 'Raggedy Doctor' and wanted to marry him, though she believed all historical disasters were his fault because he didn't stop them - these negative views came from her time with the Silence in her first regeneration.
To ensure her own existence, she made Amy see that Rory loved her, after she spent their friendship thinking he was gay. Later, by missing her parents'/friends' wedding, Mels postponed meeting the Doctor and her future self, excusing it by saying she 'didn't do weddings'.
When the Doctor met with Rory and Amy, after having received their 'message', Mels followed in a stolen car, where she held the Doctor at gunpoint to get away from the police, demanding to be taken to kill Hitler. She shot the TARDIS, making her, her parents and the Doctor crash into Hitler's office in 1938, saving them from the Teselecta. She was hit by a stray bullet and forced to regenerate when Hitler was firing at the Teselecta, and her new form was recognized as River Song, who killed the Doctor, as she was trained to, using a lipstick containing an incurable and deadly poison. She stole clothes from patrons at a posh restaurants in Berlin.
Addition Medical Information: River has no regenerations left, as she used them all the to save the Eleventh Doctor.
RP Sample: Required for first character & every canon.
