[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=width, 500px] [atrb=style,border-top: 10px solid #4477aa;background-color: #222222;] BRIDGET SHINE. TWENTY-ONE ✖ FEMALE ✖ STRAIGHT ✖ MUTANT ✖Power The power that became evident was Feline Mimicry. Which is basically taking on the characteristics of a feline. This gave her enhanced balance, speed,agility, and predator like instincts. All which became very helpful on 'jobs' so she counted it as a bonus. There were some physical attributes as well long pointed nails and feline teeth grow when she's upset, angry, or threatened hers in particular are very similar to a Snow Leopard. Her eyes also change to a dull blue or grey color when her emotions are running high. ✖ Personality Bridget is a thief, sort of. Her father used her skills and created her habit. Now that she’s older she won’t just go around stealing things. Now a day’s nine times out of ten it’s just to annoy someone or prove that she can. Being a thief isn’t the greatest thing when it comes to trusting people. Bridget has the mindset that everyone has to have an angle. They can’t simple do something for her or for others. So naturally she isn’t the most trusting person and is very careful with what she shares with people. And this also made her a master of dancing around subjects and avoiding conversations she doesn’t want to have. Now while she doesn’t trust easy that doesn’t mean she doesn’t talk. In fact she’ll talk to anyone who can stand her sarcasm and has something interesting to say. She might even hold back on the sarcasm for a good conversation with someone. Or if the person she is talking is upset. She does have a very soft side when someone is crying, though it’s hard for someone to see her cry. She needs to be tough that’s how she was raised. And she is a tough cookie. In a fight she’s rather good and quick plus flexible. When you get her mad enough or trap her you can find a fight waiting for you but she has never gone around looking for a fight. She’s also very cocky, confident, and sarcasm is her very close friend of hers. Most of the time you can find something sarcastic in everything she says but she also isn’t mean about it. She likes to kid around and she finds it’s your fault if you interpret something wrong. The only other thing that is a constant in her speech is flirting. She’s a huge flirt but in no way will she go after a guy who she knows is already dating someone. That isn’t her style and she would never ruin someone’s relationship because she liked or flirted with a guy. ✖ History Many years ago Erica and Alex met. It was love at first site for the two and they dated happily for a few years. Only one thing troubled their happiness and that was Alex going away every other week for business. Erica was losing faith in her love as he refused to tell her anything about it. Then she got pregnant. She was delighted… at first when she told Alex a grim blanket wrapped around his shoulders. He didn’t want a child and he told her why. That it was too dangerous to bring a child in the world. He told her why he was leaving, it was truly for his work but then again he was a crime boss. She was appalled by this and for the next few months they debated over what to do with the child. At the moment Bridget was born Eric wanted nothing to do with her or her father. So she left as soon as she was able and left their child in Alex’s hands. As a young child Bridget was often on her own or kept in a room and looked after by a nanny that she did not like. It wasn’t usual for her to hear yelling or fights from downstairs where her father was doing business. And along the way she seemed to have picked up a knack for figuring out what was going on and how the crime was going down. Once they discovered that she had a gift for telling lies, around the age of seven, her father would bring her in and she would play behind his desk and watch the men he talked with. If they started lying she would tug on his left sleeve if not she stayed where she was. It kept the boys he worked with a bit more loyal. It was during one of the meetings that she got her scar. She was thirteen when it happened, she hanging out behind her dad’s desk. She accidentally cloaked an object and one of the men in the room freaked. He was afraid of the power she had ever if it was brief and attacked her. It came as a surprised for everyone in the room as he tackled her to the ground. He was only able to cut her across the collarbone as he aim was a little off before her father’s guards killed him. That was the last time she was in her father’s office while a meeting was taking place. Even though he didn’t want her then he still loved her and wanted to keep her safe. Keeping her safe also gave her a lot of free time which she created of her own gang. It was just a rag tag group of teenagers, all parents into some sort of shady business and each had a skill. Brody was tall and way too skinny boy with way to greasy orange hair and pointed features. He was a master of with locks. Janet was smaller than Bridget with curly blonde hair and a soft smile. She could climb anything anywhere, windows were a cinch. Aron had tall, dark, and silent but he had the brute strength of a bull, he was also amazing with blueprints and plans. Pip was on the small side, ghostly white skin and dirty blonde hair. He was sweet and an amazing look out. Together they started doing small crimes, just for extra cash. Their first major was robbing a shop Janet entered through the sky light and unlocked it from the inside. Brody then went in and unlocked the safe. Aron got the stuff out and helped with the plan. Pip was the look out while Bridget stalled the guards around the corner and at times cracking the safes they couldn’t get with her other gift and working on developing with that. It all went perfect until her father caught her coming home. He yelled, she yelled back and a verbal fight erupted. His whole point was that he didn’t want her doing crime, he wanted her to have a clean path. It was a little late for her and anything she argued he would simply ignore. The next day he had each of the gang’s family moved away from them. She never heard from them again and was furious with her father. She couldn’t deal with his over protectiveness and the crimes he organized while she could do nothing but sit in her room. As soon as she was eighteen she was out of the house. Now she's been making it on her own for a few years. Holding her own wasn't always the easiest but she made it by taking small thieving jobs when things got rough but for now she holds a job as a waitress. ✖ Example The thinning sunlight streamed through the thickly pack trees, becoming less and less visible. The last beams of sunlight cast shadows all around. The soft padding of animal could be heard here and there. A twig snap or branch be shifted, nothing to noticeable. Just a regular time in the forest, any other time it would have been peaceful. Yet as the sun set its self for the time of sleep the shadows grew. Many looked menacing, frightening. The daylight creatures began to settle as well, revealing a whole new side of the forest. Now the sun had set, and the fog was hugging the trucks of the ancient figures. Their limbs beginning to twist and shape into long dark talons, in the darkness. To anyone outside of the nature would have been scared, and that was exactly what Mika was. The small girl was wondering through the endless collection of timeless trees. She played with her long red hair absently trying to find her way out. She had come in the forest only for the shelter of the trees, their great height and elegant leaves. It had seemed like a good idea at the time, a darkening day due to rain, yet still with the sun shining. Of course she thought nothing of it when she had leaned back and sat down to wait out the torrent of raindrops. It had only taken a few minutes of sitting comfortably to set her off in a sea of fantasies and a heart’s desires. When she had awoken the rain had stopped but she couldn’t find her way out, unknowingly she took herself deeper and deeper into the forest. She shivers as she pushes on. Her hands begin to rub her bare arms, regretting not getting the long-sleeved shirt she saw in Sanchu. Her legs were warm but could be warmer if she hadn’t been in loose capris. Stepping over a log she shifted her pack with contained all her performing tools. She was about ten feet from the log when she heard it snap. She jumped and looked backwards. ‘It wasn’t very big only a few inches, maybe some animal broke it or another branch feel on top of it.’ Mika thought as she turned trying to keep calm. She started to play with her bracelet, and remembered her father’s strength. ‘He wouldn’t be scared.’ She thought, but then that nasty little voice in her head said, ‘He was also a grown man who could fight his way out if needed.’ Mika hated how that voice always seemed to be right. Snap. Mika whirled around to face the sound. Nothing but fog moving slowly, twisting it’s was around the tree trucks. She turned and kept walking only making it before she heard another snap though this time she didn’t turn to face the noise. No instead she started running, as fast as she could. Her arms were pumping at her sides, chest heaving. Mika was a fast running; she could win a race against a horse. But something she can’t out run was fear, the fear that the trees were trying to grab her. So she pushed harder, wincing slightly as the low branches or shrubs torn her skin. She turned to get around a tree, but was suddenly off balance. Arms spinning every which way Mika fell to the ground. Quickly getting up and slamming into the side of the tree. She rested against its base, tucking her legs in close, trying to control her breathing, and the tears that slid down her already red face. She didn’t know what would happen next.
