Amber is one of the four personalities of the Merron twins, a pair of strongly bifurcated androgynes (see The Curse of Metamor for more info on bifurcation). She shares a body and a set of memories with her "brother" and alter-ego, Joss; the other twin's body houses her brother Kal and her sister Jessica.
Personality
Amber is upbeat, unreserved, and friendly. Whereas Joss wants to see more of the world, Amber wants to experience it — to get her feet wet and her knees dirty. She loves the photo shoots in exotic locations that her job often requires, and in between shooting sessions she squeezes in as much time adventuring in the surrounding areas as possible. Kayaking, hang-gliding, scuba diving, mountain climbing — she's in love with the outdoors and with nature, and she's always planning the next big adventure on her wish list.
Romantically, Amber is impulsive and driven by her senses; she's not quite ready to settle down yet, since she's afraid that married life will get in the way of the adventures she still wants to have while she's young enough to enjoy them (and is making enough money from modeling to afford them). She is fully bisexual, which is a relief to Joss, since they have a standing agreement that they aren't going to get married unless both of them can agree on the person in question. Amber likes Kate, finding her to be both very smart and very sexy, but she avoids telling Kate that she and Joss are one and the same person for as long as she can — she isn't sure how Kate would react, and she doesn't want to mess things up for Joss (or herself).
Despite her generally impulsive nature, Amber is the "good girl" in the family — like Joss, she takes sex seriously and doesn't engage in it casually. While she's not a virgin — she gave herself to a boyfriend she was seeing back in high school, and has regretted it ever since they broke up — her past mistakes have made her decide to save sex for the right person.
Religion
Religiously speaking, both Joss and Amber are currently operating on about the same level as Kate: they know Eli is real, have no serious doubts about Him being the Creator, and attend service on Sundays. While they are genuine Followers of the Meraist Church, there isn't much passion or intimacy there, and while their faith has shaped their morality it doesn't always direct their day-to-day actions — their sexual experimentation in high school being a good example.
Career Path
Amber and Jessica both work as models, and they are in no danger of losing that job any time soon. Both of them are at least as stunning as their male counterparts, and their towering height (185 cm) puts them literally heads and shoulders above their competition. Amber's hair is a long, thick, flowing mane that has become a staple of shampoo and conditioner commercials everywhere (though she often keeps it braided, tied back or done up to keep it out of her eyes). Both she and Jessica are lithe and fit, and (predictably, for teegees) their breasts are amply sized and very nicely shaped. While their names are not well-known outside the modeling business, their faces (and bodies) have been seen around the world in dozens of magazines and commercials — and they are among the most frequently-downloaded women on the WorldNet. Amber would like to get into acting more extensively, since that profession tends to have a slightly longer "shelf-life" than modeling, but she hasn't had many opportunities yet.
