Full Name: Seraphina Woods (or Nina for short).
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Power(s): Nina's ability has been with her since she was born, however, it was always merely thought as luck or pure coincidence. Precognition has always been apart of her life, though it was only recently discovered due to the prediction of her mothers murder (explained in-dept later on). Precognition is the ability to perceive the future, often expressed through dreams, visions, feelings etc. For Nina, it comes in a variety depending on the severity of the future event. If it was as extreme as lets say a huge earth tremor, then she would most likely have a vision, where she would witness the event for a first-hand point of view. Mostly, she just has an inner gut feeling of worry, anxiety, fright etc. The is no time prediction, however, so once she has a vision; we don't know when its going to take place.
Appearance: Nina was blessed with her late fathers blonde hair and blue eyes. For numerous years she has used running as a stress relief, resulting in having a muscular, toned body. Seraphina's style is very laid-back and simple. She practically lives in skinny jeans and can almost always be found wearing converse or sneakers. As for tops she sticks to baggy t-shirts, hoodies and sweatshirts in an attempt to cover herself up. Her hair is almost always just left to its own devices, she lets it fall down on her shoulders. You might occasionally see her hair in a top-knot, or a ponytail as well. But never will you find Nina not wearing a gold, chain necklace with a small deer hanging from a clasp. The necklace belonged to her mother. All in all, she dresses like her personality.
Personality:
Seraphina is a very insecure and anxious person. She has a strong wall of defense built up around her to prevent people getting in before they get hurt. Now,Nina isn't shy; shes just scared that people will think her as a freak. Therefore, it takes a lot for her to trust someone enough to call them a friend. All she ever wanted was to feel wanted; to have someone she could rely on, talk to. Since her mother, she has had no one. Don't think that she will never open up or be sociable, because once she finds someone she trusts, she'll be like a whole different person. Due to her ability and past trauma and experiences, Nina is a very insecure and troubled person. Since losing her mother, she has kept herself to herself, whilst also blocking or pushing the people that really care about her away. You could easily compare her to a shy fox, just trying to survive and afraid of being hunted.
Weaknesses:
The main weakness in Seraphina's power is most definitely that she can't tell when the event is going to happen. This could cause problems if its a serious or significant occurrence then it might come as unexpected and maybe even dangerous! Nina's flaw is also that she has a habit of pushing those that really care away. She's almost afraid that when people get to know her they'll be either disappointed or scared. Lastly, she is what you could call an over-thinker, once something is bothering her, it always will until its sorted or if she can find it in herself to admit that there is nothing she can do.
Strengths:
Due to the fact that she is quit independent, her school work is done to a very high standard, especially her written work. This is because she writes a diary everyday of her life so that she can remember every last detail of her life. Nina is very trustworthy, once she knows something, she wont tell whether her life depended on it. Finally, Nina's very observant, lets just say she knows when something up!
History/Family:
Born on the 9th of October 1997, Seraphina was a baby miracle. Her mother and father has tried and lost numerous time, when eventually it was there day to come to the labor room. It was quite a calm birth and everything went smoothly. That was until the car ride home.
As they were driving along Sydney's Harbor bridge when a car swerved into theirs. Leaving the mother with just a head injury and the father dead. Nina was unharmed. This had a huge toll on Seraphina's mother, resulting in them moving as far away from their home country as possible. England.
As time went on Nina grew into a beautiful girl, everyday her mother would see more and more of her father in her. Now, Nina's powers only begun to show here.She would always know what she would get for her birthday and as she got older she would know when a test was coming up in school, so she could revise earlier before everyone else. When friends would be obsessing over boys, she would know whether or not he'd ask them out or kiss them etc. It was just sort of assumed that her predicaments were just a coincidence or luck. That was until her mothers murder.
For a whole week, she had been having a deep, inner feeling that something was going to go wrong. Then one night, she had a dream that her mum would be late back from work, and that she would never come back. Being a Friday night, her mum wouldn't work until tomorrow evening. So when it came to her mother going to work she made sure that her mother knew to call her if she had to stay later. Feeling reassured, she fell asleep but woke to her mother not at home. Being the stubborn girl she is, she didn't call anyone or call the police. Instead, she waited for them to find her.
From then on she has had to deal with thinking that it was her fault that her mother was brutally stabbed and killed on her way home, in the petrol station. And that she was the freak that made it happen.
In Character sample:
The past few weeks had been a whirlwind for Nina. Being shipped of to a new care home (this one being her 12th). Every bedroom seemed the same though. White walls, a bed, desk, chair and wardrobe.The dreams had been getting worse recently, Nina had seen that she would have to pack her bags again; but this time she would be going on a boat! Nina wasn't so happy about this due to the fact that she gets terrible motion-sickness. But anywhere could be better than this dump. Nina had spent the past 2 months staying in her room, listening to music, reading and doing homework. But inside she knew that her life was going to have a big change. Whether it was going to be good or bad, she didn't know.
Now she knew. Nina was sat on all her black bin liners filled with her possessions whilst also trying to keep herself from being sick on this rocking boat. The care home had actually had the sense to send her away to a "specials" school. Or a "school for people who need to be understood" as they put it. But as much as she was hating it, there was also a part of her that said that this is where she would be happy. Where she could really be herself again. As the boats foghorn sounded and the faint glimpse of an island started to show, Nina took her mums necklace from around her neck.
She kissed it and said "No matter what mom. This is where my life will begin. This is where i belong."
I know its tragic but i promise, shes not all bad
Hopes its alright [;
