echokinetic
Physical description (face, build, weight): Blonde, pure white eyes, slim but athletic build, 5'4, 110lbs
Age: 21
Birthday: October 30th
PB: Elisha Cuthbert
Abilities: Echolocation. Sound manipulation. Gymnastics and acrobatics.
Weaknesses and flaws: Mirror's can rebound soundwaves back to her, something she's can't control immediately. Soundproof rooms can nullify her abilities. Doesn't like being referred to as 'the blind girl', also doesn't like being thought of as handicapped. Generally gives people the benefit of the doubt, allowing them second or third chances.
Character location/Home: Her parents are from Los Angelos, but she considers Xavier's school her home.
Alignment (villain, hero etc): She doesn't consider herself either, playing more of an arbitrary role, though she hasn't been put in any position to have to choose. If she did, she'd choose hero.
Relatives (living/dead?): Father. Mother passed away a few years ago.
Backstory: Born blind, Sasha was also seemingly gifted from birth with echolocation; able to 'see' her environment via sonar. She was initially brought to Xavier's when her soundwave manipulation ability manifested at puberty; her inability to control it causing her severe headaches as well as occasionally breaking glass and crystal around her.
How do you plan to introduce the character to the game?: She left Xavier's to travel after she graduated. I'm thinking that she got lonely and missed her friends and decided to come home.
What are you planning to do with this character?: Fitting her in as best as I can.
What do you want to see happen with this character?: I'd like to have her interact with the other characters and find a place where she feels she can fit. She doesn't consider herself handicapped and gets somewhat annoyed when it's constantly suggested that she 'sit it out'. I'd like her to be somewhat useful; as both a team member and friend to other characters.
Sample post:
Wriggling in her seat and stretching her legs, Sasha covered a yawn with the back of her hand. Four more hours until the plane touched down in New York, and then she was back to the mansion. She had a healthy glow from the last few months she'd spent in Greece; Spain for almost a year before that, but she'd been feeling that pang of homesickness for the last few weeks. Which had decided for her where her next destination would be: home. And for her, home was Xavier's School for Gifted Children. She'd spent more time there than with her parents in L.A., and now with her mother gone, she just couldn't see her and her 'hanging out' together, alone. Not that he didn't love her; she knew he did, but he wasn't nearly as expressive as her mother had been, and lately, there'd been a tension between them. Like somehow, he blamed her for it. Her absence or her existence, she wasn't sure, but it was there.
"Do you need anything, miss?" The stewardess asked in a tone more slow and drawn out than Sasha had heard her give anyone else on the plane. It was a good thing she didn't have irises or pupils, it meant the woman was saved from the epic eyeroll directed her way. She was blind, not deaf.
"No, thanks, I'm good for now."
"Well, you just let me know if you do. Or if you need to use the restroom. One of the flight attendants would be glad to assist you." Sasha could hear the plastic smile behind the words and refrained from snorting. Translation: 'One of us would like to make sure you get there and don't trip, because we'd hate to be sued by a blind girl'.
Slipping her sunglasses back on, she gave the woman a bright smile. "Will do. Thanks for checking on me." Nothing to see here, just a poor little sightless girl trying to take a nap. Man, she couldn't wait to get home..
