Name: Vanorah Lexington
Age: 16
Sex: female
Appearance: waist-length bluish-black hair with a slight wavy, large expressive hazel eyes, faint bluish cast to her skin, webbing between fingers and toes, ears have a slight fin like edge. She is of average height with a slim, athletic (but still feminine) build. Able to shift her form slightly when underwater; legs fuse together, forming a long graceful mermaid-like tail for better speed underwater (a glistening metallic version of her eye color).
Abilities: can breathe underwater indefinitely; able to create solid illusions (where you not only see and hear them but if touched they give the sensation of solidity)
Personality: shy, with reclusive tendencies. Dislikes confrontation and would much rather find a peaceful (non-combative) solution to a problem. Nervous and startles easily. A rather gentle soul.
Background: orphaned as a toddler. Has vague memories of her original parents and occasional nightmares of the accident that claimed her parents lives. Placed in an orphanage and was soon adopted. Took several years for her mutations to become apparent to her adoptive parents. Her new mother was appalled by her and refused any further contact, shunning her completely. When she was 7 her mother ran off, leaving just her and her adoptive father, who tried his best to make up for his wife’s treatment of “his little mermaid”. As she grew up was subjected to much verbal (and oftentimes physical) abuse by her schoolmates and often by those she’d thought were her friends. As such she withdrew from social interactions, often hiding in her room or the nearest body of water. Because of her fathers job they moved often and it just became easier to not form attachments to people because either her new “friends” would end up bullying her when they found out about her or they would move again. Over the years she also found ways to, if not prevent people from discovering her abnormalities, at least prolonging the discovery: wearing her hair long to cover her ears, never going barefoot, or swimming with others, and wearing gloves. She’s now 16 and in yet another school. However, her father has heard that the FBI is calling for those with special abilities come and train for them. Though he is loathe to give up his gentle mermaid, he believes it is the best course possible and has sent her to join them.
