SPECIES Human
GENDER Female SEXUALITY Straight
DORM Serpens
POWER Cat Shape-Shifting: Odele has the ability to transform into a normal house cat, with traits, appearances, and physiology of a feline by rearranging her genes. The girl hones the senses of an average feline; including sharp sight and hearing, along with the physical features of a cat. She was born with this special power at birth, and when she had reached the age of five, only started to notice her physical traits were different than those around her. Odele cannot stay in the form no longer than an hour, for being in a feline body ruins her bone weight and causes her discomfort in feline form; making her quite uncomfortable.
Empath: Odele learned from a very young age that she could sense the feelings of those around her, go deep into their thoughts and pick out their emotions. She is very skilled in reading certain emotions of those around her, however she cannot use this power for too long, for if used for more than a day, she begins to loose sanity due to all the emotions weighing her down. This power connects with her shape-shifting power for animals have a keen sense of understanding of emotions around them.
APPEARANCE Odele is a very bewitching female, of medium height, standing at about five foot two. She weighs approximately ninety pounds, common for those with cat shape-shifting abilities. The molly has a very slender build, with strong forearms and legs from physical attributes to that of a cat, along with a flexible spine, making her agile in the ways of the human world. Odele has very slim facial features, with sharp almond shaped eyes, a beautiful cornflower hue and sparkling ebony pupils. The girl's skin color is that of a pale snowflake in winter, and when in feline form is a curly magnolia and brown furred feline with the same sharp cornflower beacons. In human form, her lips are a light berry color, whilst her straight auburn hair is usually pinned back in a crown of braided hair. Odele's fingers are long and slender, with little nicks and scars running across them, due to misadventures in feline form. Odele is commonly seen in dark colored shirts that flutter across her collarbone, yet her neck is most often hidden with a scarf, to hide the scar that stretches underneath. In the springtime, she is commonly seen in dark colored shirts and black skinny jeans, with pristine white flats. However, in the summertime she is usually spotted in light colored dresses, with pearl earrings that are barely noticeable behind the girl's thick auburn crown of hair. In the wintertime, she sports herself in a heavier brand of shirt and a navy colored petticoat, while wearing wool socks and thick boots to keep her feet warm in the cold weather. From first glance, you can tell she dresses nicely not because she attracts attention, but because she cannot stand to be looked down upon by those around her.
PERSONALITY From a young age, Odele was picked on and teased, prodded, and bullied, thus making her a very sad and reserved child. The girl is a broadminded individual, with a strong sense of pride and ambition. Acceding in her academics, she is whispered upon by other dorm members, yet she doesn't bat an eyelash, for she has been deceived and betrayed many times before. With temperamental issues as a child, she has grown into a fine young female with a sense of responsibility and dignity, letting nobody step upon her parade. Odele is a reserved and quiet female, yet her silence speaks more than words. Her actions are based on factors around her, and she is constantly seen troubled for there are too many people around her with emotions that takes a toll on her mental strength. Odele has learned to bury her short fuse and anger that had blossomed as a child, and she has developed a sense of calmness when she blocks the world around her. The littlest things that could make her angry were common everyday things, whether it be the clicking of a pen, or the loud chewing across a room. The biggest thing that sets her fuse off, however, is when she spots somebody being rude and disrespectful to another, or using threatening words. Stuff like this and she would blow up, for she knew what it was like to be bullied as a child, and would never wish for harm upon another person.
Overall, Odele is a straightforward girl with a certain knack for picking out people's issues and problems, and is optimistic, with a sincere personality. The girl is sympathetic and is graceful, taking other people's weaknesses into mind. However, she may be quiet and candid, it is very hard to earn her trust, and sometimes her temperamental side shines through like sunlight, and her senses liven, and her sharp tongue and sarcastic remarks are clues to back off, for you have triggered something inside her that causes pain, and weakens her mental strength. Odele hates to see those around her hurt, but even if she is suffering, she offers a helping those to those who are troubled, for she can read the darkest of people and their emotions, and feels sympathy. Even from being hurt at such a young age, her quote is "it's better to be hurt, than to cause hurt to another".
WEAKNESSES One of Odele's weaknesses is that she is a fearful girl, meaning that the smallest things can spook or frighten her quite easily. Death is one thing she fears the most, as the emotion of grief and betrayal from others is heavy on her shoulders, she is afraid that if she makes a friend, they may die an uncertain death, this of course being untrue. Call it paranoia or pure fear, she takes a flight reaction when scared, or if something bad occurs, she may run or laugh, due to not knowing what to do in the situation.
Another one of Odele's weaknesses is that she is quite impatient, and cannot take or bear things for a long period of time. It stems from her childhood. She cannot deal with long lines or tiring conversations that take up too much time and energy, for she's always on the "go, go, go".
The final weakness that Odele possesses is that she works too much, generally speaking for relations or academics. She strives to be perfect, one that somebody can love and trust, because she wants to prove everyone who wronged her in her childhood. While it be selfish, she cannot help that feeling of loneliness, for loosing parents at such a young age is an emotional toll on children. Odele suffers from separation anxiety, meaning that when she is closely connected to someone and they leave, she is always worrying for their health and when will they return, something she cannot help.
STRENGTHS One of Odele's strengths is that she is trustworthy, meaning you tell her a secret and she vows to keep it. She has felt many emotions; grief, pain, anger, spitefulness, she's felt it all, but the thing she has sensed the most, is that when trust is broken, it is the most hardest in experience. Her promises and trust were broken as a child, for she cannot trust others, but she encourages you to trust her, because through all the pain that has been endowed upon her, she understands what it's like when trust is broken.
Another one of Odele's strengths is that she is a very warm and open being, meaning those in personal distress, she finds time to go out of her way and offer support to them. Whilst she can be sarcastic and temperamental, she'll always feel sympathy for a sad or grieving person, and would drop down on her knees to give them a comforting hug. Being wounded so many times in her life, she understands the emotion grief the most, and would lay down her life for anybody troubled with grief or depression. Due to this, she is taken advantage of in which she doesn't mind, because others around her who are feeling troubled mean more to her than her life, even her mental strength. Too much of one's emotion and she looses her self control, with random outbursts of anger, usually well controlled in the Foresta Academy.
The last of Odele's strengths is that she is very honest, and never tells a lie unless in a life or death situation. Lying is painful, and takes an emotional toll on the girl, for she had always been lied to when younger, causing these random bursts of anger that would end in her gripping her head in pain, for it hurt so much to be betrayed.
HISTORY Odele was born in the beginning of summer, and was the daughter to a very beautiful young woman, and handsome father. However, her parents had died shortly after her second birthday, rendering her lost and broken in the ways of the cruel world. Hope was like a blossom in her heart when she was taken into an orphanage. Odele had been found in a local playground, hidden inside a tire tunnel, holding onto the knitted toys that resembled her parents in which she had gotten for her first birthday. Being raised in an orphanage had not been what she was expecting. It appeared that as she grew older, her physical traits were quite different than those around her, and she started to develop skills she had never noticed as a young child. She was underweight than her friends, and she had more flexibility than an average human being. She was teased and prodded, picked on, and abused. This torture lasted for three years and by the age of twelve, she decided she had been finished with all the bullying. On the night she ran away, she planted a kiss upon the elderly female who had taken her into the orphanage, leaving a small flower in the palm of the old woman's hand.
It was then as she was on her own in the world, she pick pocketed for money, told lies and deceived average beings around her. It wasn't until one night she had finally shifted into her true form, and everything slowly began to piece together. It wasn't until a professor found her one day, and enrolled her into Foresta Academy, where she had learned to hone her senses and become a feline and average human girl blending into society with those of special powers as well. To this day, Odele escapes at night and disappears into her feline form, wandering the academy, in search of one little thing, a friend.
IN CHARACTER SAMPLE The streets were no place to wander alone at night, but how could one so adventurous resist the welcoming spring breeze? Underneath the street lights that cast a serene glow upon endless pavement, a lone silhouette walked; dressed in a dark colored turtleneck sweater, slim ebony jeans, and snow colored flats that contrasted against the night colors. Her name was Odele, and she was quite different than the average human being, honing the senses of an intelligent feline, and able to feel and experience emotions around her. Many times before had she been complimented on her name, for it meant a melody or song. As the eighteen year old femme walked against the breezy springtime air, she felt the loving brushes across her flushed cheeks, felt the tingling sensation of the breeze upon her berry colored lips, taste the perfume in the wind. Her vocals resonated as a gentle humming melody slipped past her lips and whispered sweet nothings to the night, and her fingers reached upwards to push a strand of dark colored bang away from her snowflake colored features. It wasn't until there was a crying in the night, and she stopped momentarily to listen to the straining cries. Cornflower eyes widening, her power detected the signs of helplessness and confusion, it weighed heavily in her mind, and she struggled to breath with such clutter on her mind.
"You don't know how to do anything, do you, Odele?" "Yeah, you're always relying on another person to help you" "Can't you do anything yourself?" "You're just a broken child who lost her parents because they couldn't love you-" "It's all just an act, stop trying to be the victim here, blame us because of your troubles, like we care about you"
"What happened to my maman and papa? Where am I?" "Why are there so many people?" "Where are my mother and father, somebody, please, tell me where they are!"
Odele struggled to breath as the emotions took most of her strength, yet she wearily moved in the direction of the crying soul, and mentally tugged herself at the image of a lost crying child, hidden in the dark alley. Upon alert, the emotions died and she could finally breath again, knowing the little boy had sensed her and calmed a relative amount.
"Do you know where my mother went? S-she was with me one moment, a-and then the next, s-she was gone!"
"I don't know where your mother is, sweetheart, but just calm down, and i'll help you look for her, okay?"
