Name: Nyssa Goldenworth
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Power: Able to take the form of anything she has come in contact with before. This is skin-on-skin she cannot just touch their clothes. Also, while she may take the height and body of that person, her clothing does not transform with her. Because of this she has both mens and womens clothing in her wardrobe, all types and sizes. She prefers to be prepared.
But when she does shift into somebody's form Nyssa obtains all their physical attributes, this is very handy when doing hand to hand combat/when using weapons.
Her animal "storage" isn't all that fantastic though, rats, cockroaches, dogs and rabbits are the main "beast" forms she can take. Not all that exciting. Plus - what clothes would a dog wear? No - animal transformations really aren't all that appealing to Nyssa at all.
Appearance: Nyssa was born with a stunningly beautiful face with near perfect symmetry. Everything about her was dark and mysterious, brown eyes, slightly wavy ebony hair, high cheekbones. It was as if her very being immitated poise and sophistication. Sadly, this didn't last long.
Two years ago, just before she was accepted into Evenslip Academy her magic had backfired on her and now when her powers slipped an ugly misshappen face appears instead of her true ethereal beauty. Because of this she has to constantly keep up a glamour, but that isn't always a bad thing. Especially when you have parents like hers.
History: Nyssa's parents were... special. They believed that magic was a curse and that their sole mission in life was to eradicate every single bit of sorcery on Earth. The last thing they believed was that their own daughter was keeping a dirty little secret from them.
After her "accident" Nyssa left every day for school with her glamour cast off but as soon as she stepped into that bus "TAH-DAH!" it was as if nothing ever happened. She would never have been caught if her mother hadn't decided one day to give Nyssa a surprise pick-up as it was her birthday and Nyssa's mother had something wonderful planned. Of course Nyssa never found out what they were.
Her mother simply drove off.
When Nyssa finally walked home and knocked on the door her parents pretended not to know who she was, treated her as if she was one of those door to door salesmen. It broke her heart.
She has been living in a box for the last year and sneaking into private swimming pools to bathe. Exciting.
Everslip is Nyssa's only way out of her old life.
House: Cambiere
Other: Sorry this is so short, it's almost 10 pm and I've been getting to sleep around 1 am lately. Since I have to also get up at 7 am I am not holding up too well.
