THE HANDLER
[/SIZE]NAME: Vara.
AGE: 20...wow, I got old.
OTHER CHARACTER/S: none...as of yet.
HOW DID YOU FIND US? somewhere in the middle of a brainstorm with some old rp buddies.YOUR MINI PROFILE
FULL NAME: Jennifer Penelope Clayton.
NICKNAMES: Jenn.
BIRTHDATE & AGE: March 2, 1982 (28).
OCCUPATION: Officially, she's a registered nurse at Mulberry Private. On the side, she's the founder of Vervain Underground. But sshhhh...
ALIGNMENT: Vervain.
RESIDENCE: 2 Myrtle Drive. A large three-storey house that also acts as the headquarters of Vervain. Officially owned by Victor and May Clayton, but the only person who permanently resides there is Jennifer.THAT SPARKLING REFLECTION
PHYSICAL APPEARANCE:
Jennifer is a beauty. She got her pale skin, green eyes and slender form from her dad's side of the family. Her dark hair and sharp bone structure is all her mother's. She stands at 5'7, another feature she inherited from her father. Like most parts of her life, Jenn dresses very sensibly. She likes to be comfortable, but she does know how to dress up when the occasion calls for it.
FACE CLAIM: Olivia Wilde.AND THE HEART BREAKING TRUTH
PERSONALITY: this could include general demeanor, likes/dislikes, strength/weaknesses. Whatever takes your fancy, as long as you know who your character is.
There's really two sides to Jennifer. One the outside, she is the Vervain Underground leader. She's smart, focused, motivated to help people in need. Very basically, she's cool-calm-collected by compassionate, charismatic and warm. Perfect for the job.
Every fibre of her being is against violence and malignancy. A decent human being, but perhaps a slightly weak leader when it comes to going into war. Its just that she cares too much.She puts her heart and soul into the people she protects and doesn't do so well when it comes to hard decisions - the ones that might cause others harm. She would rather hurt herself that hurt the members of Vervain Underground. She would sacrifice herself than even risk a single life. Heroic? Sure. Blindly loyal and a little stupid? Yeah, just a little.
So the other side of her? Not very many people see it, and that's only because no one takes the time. Jennifer so well conceals it that only someone who really, truly cared and loved her, or knew her better than herself, would be able to see it.
You see...she's not so good with personal relationships. Perhaps why she has problems with her sister. Jennifer's the kind of person who tends to care more about the masses than for those who are actually in her life.
AUGMENTATION: Third Level Healing:
4. HEALING. Fourth level Healers can heal people that are close to death.[/ul]Jenn's been known to heal anything from a cut to a gunshot wound in a non-fatal region. She can remove a slash, a bruise and even a headache without too much damage to herself. A few times, she's awakened people who were unconscious but, depending on how severe the problem, this can cause her nausea and dizziness.
Only once in her life did she relieve someone of a fatal disease in its early stages. A friend in London was diagnosed with lung cancer and begged Jennifer to do something. Jenn knew it was impossible and tried to decline, but when her friend became emotional, she attempted to heal him. Twenty minutes of intense concentration, one nosebleed and a migraine later, Jennifer's friend was healed. For the three days that followed, Jennifer fell ill, sleeping for almost eighteen hours a day.
FAMILY:
FATHER:: Victor Clayton
MOTHER:: May (Xi) Clayton
SISTER:: Delilah Clayton, 25, superhuman speed
BROTHER:: Tyler Clayton, 20, augmentation undetermined atm
HISTORY:
Jennifer's childhood was considerably insignificant as far as childhoods go. She grew up normal and happy. Her grades were average and she learned Cantonese from her mother and maternal grandmother from a young age. She got along fairly well with her younger brother and sister. But, even so early on, Jennifer knew she wanted to help people. It seemed to be something she was born with, nurtured by her parents and encouraged by her peers and friends.
Jennifer was fourteen when her augmentation surfaced. She was preparing dinner and eager little Tyler wanted to help. Before their mother could keep the youngster out of the kitchen, he burned himself on a hot saucepan. As their sister Delilah grabbed a Band-Aid, Jennifer examined the burn and it seemed to disappear just as she touched Tyler's hand.
The shock lasted at least a month, and finally, Jennifer heard of others her age that had special abilities. In fact, there was a news report about it, and when it came to the interview section Jennifer froze. The CEO of the Juniper Corporation stated strongly that there was one way to remove these ungodly abilities. Immediately, the public was excited and funding for the Juniper Corp. increased.
After a few weeks of research, Jennifer discovered that this removal involved infecting the enhanced with the virus that their parents had been cured from. By the age of 21, Jennifer had made many friends with special abilities, and when she turned 23, one of these friends was infected and omitted into hospital.
Jennifer's friend died a month later from the virus and that was it. She knew that she needed to do something, and what she did was begin the Vervain Underground.
She maintained the Vervain Underground from her parents house on Myrtle Drive. This became easier when they decided to travel through Asia and leave the house under care of their eldest daughter. Six months after she turned 27, Jennifer felt as if the members of the Vervain Underground were well established. The people she worked with were great at recruiting and rescuing new members. And she felt comfortable enough to go overseas and spread their work around.
Jennifer visited London, and tried to start a new branch of the Vervain Underground there. She found a few like-minded people but found it difficult to really latch on to anyone who wanted to establish something. It was in London she met someone she'd never forget.
He had his own issues, of course - who doesn't? - but he was a perfect match for her. Someone she would have fallen in love with instantly if it wasn't for the fact that her goal was to save the world. She didn't want to distract herself...that was what she told him anyway. Plus, her official reason for coming back to Primrose Hills was because she could do much more for people at home than in London. But the real reason she's running away? She just scared to fall in love. Her personal relationships have never been anything spectacular. Her parents were a little withdrawn in their raising of the Clayton children, her sister pretty much hates her, and her little brother never talks to her.
