Alexandra Winters [img]http://data1.whicdn.com/images/99740220/large.png[/img] Age: 16 Level: 2 Personality: Alexandra is a popular girl, and she's used to it. Even before her powers manifested she had a talent for inspiring loyalty in the people around her, sometimes even bordering on fanaticism. It all comes down to two principles: Always seem interested, to be honest, most of the time going through the motions of all the banal platitudes required to maintain "healthy friendships" is almost more than she can bear. She secretly craves someone that doesn't bore her. The second is: Someone is always on the outside, the unfortunate truth of the world is that social groups benefit from "outsiders", they serve as someone to hate, be that the nerds, goths, freaks, or geeks ultimately doesn't matter, but someone is getting hurt. Alexandra aims to ensure that person is never her. Biography: Alexandra is an only child. Her mother is a revered psychologist, and her father is an acclaimed pharmeceutical researcher. She comes from wealth and never wants for anything, perfect life right? Not really, the truth is her mother is a stern and domineering woman, and her father a good and unambitious man beaten into greatness by his wife. Alexandra sees her father as a mewling coward for putting up with her mother's abuse, and that has colored her view of the world. There's the strong, and there's the weak. Pick a side girlie. Power: Alexandra can see and influence the social attachments and emotions of the people around her. From binding you to her will to ensuring two people fall in love she navigates the labrynthine darkness within the hearts of her peers with horrific ease. Mostly she uses these powers to remain on top of the social totem pole, but the truth is she has no idea how much control she might have, and she's afraid to find out. Prodigy: Alexandra is in full control of her powers most of the time, and should be progressing faster than she is. The problem is she fears her power. Grades: A's for the most part. One of the benefits of popularity is easy access to other peoples notes and being able to put study groups together easily. [hider=My Hider] Alexandra's been here nearly since the school was founded. As such she's got connections and pull with most of the staff. She's also on the student counsel. Her mother is also one of the school's biggest benefactors, so teachers tend to be carefull around her. She's had girlfriends here and there, but none seem to hold her intrest long enough to turn into anything serious. [/hider]
