The person behind the character:
Name/Nickname: Btchee Witchee, B.W, Witchee
Age: 19
Experience: 6 (haven’t roleplayed in about a year)
Contact information: bwitchee@yahoo.com
Character basics:
Real name: Bernadette Thornton
Code name: Viden
Date of Birth: May 15th
Place of Birth: Moab, UT, U.S.A
Age: 21
Known family:
Grandma: Anne Thornton
Grandma: Lucy Brown
Father: Adam Thornton
Mother: Maggie Thornton
Both of her parents were only children so she has no aunts or uncles to speak of. Her grandmothers on both sides of the family are alive but her grandfathers are not. One died before she was born and the other passed away while she was still in grade school. Both of her parents are alive and doing well. She tries to keep in contact with them via e-mail when she can, as she does not wish to return to Utah if she can help it, fearing being trapped in a small town her whole life.
The Reflection in the mirror:
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Hazel
Height: 5 feet 9 inches
Weight: 150 lbs
Legal Status: Adult
Occupation: College student, janitor
Affiliation: N/A
Abilities: Power Sensing- Bernadette is able to sense the powers of those around her. This does not however mean that she can sense the specific way a person might use them, or what their weaknesses might be. It just gives her a general idea of what the person might be capable of. For people who have gained abilities in an unnatural way (e.g. Hulk) she can only tell they have a power not what it is. This is a power she has work on and is able to sense powers quite well. She mainly uses it to know where she should avoid.
Superhuman Tracking- After she meets a person (provided she spent at least fifteen minutes in their presence) she is able to track them just about anywhere. She has to think about the person to locate them, she just doesn’t know where they are at all times. This power is not very well defined in Bernadette as she likes to pretend she is normal, only using this power to occasionally keep tabs on her family. Because she ignores her powers for the most part there can be error of up to fifty miles from where the person actually is.
What's hidden behind the mask:
Personality: Bernadette is a fairly quiet and reserved person. Though her powers are not flashy she is afraid that somehow people will notice that she is not normal, she does not wish to get in trouble with the government. She is almost never the person that starts a conversation. Although she isn’t likely to share it with anyone she has a rather snarky/sarcastic inner monologue.
She is also a bit of a daredevil. She enjoys extreme sports a lot and is always searching for her next thrill. Since she began legally old enough sky diving has become her new favorite thing. Her daredevil nature often surprises people because she isn’t out going or all that completive.
History: Bernadette Thornton was born and raised in Moab, Utah. Her parents were from California but moved to the small tourist town for reasons unknown to Bernadette. If it were her she would have never left the Redwoods. The Redwoods were her favorite place in the world; she spent almost every summer there with her grandmothers until she had turned seventeen.
There was no traumatic event in her life that lead to her discovering her powers. She had them for as long as she could remember. She didn’t even realize it wasn’t normal until she mentioned something about Lucy’s whereabouts (she’d been vacationing) to her grandmother Anne. Anne never told her parents or even Lucy about her unsual abilities, waiting for Bernadette to tell them when she was ready. Sixteen years later Bernadette still hasn’t told a soul, including the government. And while part of her wants to be a regular girl she just can’t think of what her life would be without them. She liked that if she thought about her family she could tell where they were even if not exactly. And she liked avoiding other people that were “gifted” she didn’t need to be drawn into their conflicts.
Although she isn’t overly found of her hometown living there did develop a certain fondness for extreme sports and outdoor activities of all kinds. The Thornton family would often spend weekends camping, hiking, bungee jumping, shooting, hunting, river rafting, and rock climbing. Making Bernadette fit in the athletic sense but in a combat sense; up to this point she’s never had any sort of combat training. This will change when she gets farther along in her schooling. She could shoot a gun, but the only moving targets she’s ever shot at have been deer.
Currently she goes to school in LA for Criminal Justice. LA wasn’t the closest place for a school but she wanted to experience city life. Plus if thing were going really bad her Grandmothers both lived upstate. It was nice being independent but still being able to rely on family if needed.
During her time in LA Bernadette adopted her alter ego Viden, which is Dutch for ‘to find’. When she thinks she’s safe from being caught she drops hints as to the location of criminals to the cops. She works at a local police station as a janitor, making it easy for her to at least somewhat locate repeat crooks; at least the ones she thinks should be back in jail.
Roleplaying Sample:
Idiot, idiot, idiot. By now one would think that Bernadette would be smart enough to watch her back when playing at being a ‘hero’. She was just a janitor here, a job that she only got because of her choice in major. The hazel eyed girl shook her head. She wasn’t allowed to clean up the desks. She wasn’t a cop. That information was forbidden from her. She was lucky that Steve believed it was an honest mistake because she was new. If she had been caught… Shaking her head again she told herself to shut up. She was almost done. Then she could go home and beat herself up there without cops watching her.
But of course she would continue to beat herself up at work and even now on her walk home. The brunette knew she must be stupid, crazy or both. She was gifted and chooses to work with cops. While there were no visible signs to her using her gift she could still get caught. How would that look? Here Bernadette was trying to get a degree in criminal justice with being an unregistered superhuman. Maybe she should just forget about Viden. That sounded healthy.
