Name: Macy Keen 
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Physical Description:
Macy stands at an average height with a slender build. She was formerly a tanned brown eyed brunette who wore a trendy beach style with lots of denim shorts, sandals, loose fitting blouses and cardigans of various shades of color. Colorful was a word to describe her, she loved to surround herself with colors, That was until late September of 2012 when she woke up one day to find a stranger looking back at her in a mirror, and colorful became the last word you would use to describe Macy Keen. Her dark hair had faded to white, the tan seemed to have melted away to leave pale skin behind, and her eyes had become a clear ice blue. She currently wears her hair shorter than she used to, letting it fall to the tops of her shoulders in long layers in waves, or occasionally straight. Since her emergence Macy hasn't worn bright colors, sticking with clothes that are dark shades of black, gray, blue, and green, with the occasional white thrown in. She also wears more make up than she used to. People think she's a goth, but she figures it's one way to try to blend in.

Mundane Skills:
- College Degree: Nursing
- She spent two years working as a nurse in a pediatrics ward before her emergence.
- She's knowledgeable about medicine, medical care, and first aide, having devoted much of her adult time to it.
- Previous waitress experience from college, which now serves her well in her new life.
- Steady hands, good for stitching up cuts, cleaning injuries, as well as painting. She loves art, ever since she was little.

Supernatural:
It started with the lights. They seemed to dance right before her eyes, surrounding everyone and everything around her. At first she thought it must have been a trick of the Florida sunshine, reflecting off the ocean. But then she woke up and found out she was pale as death, and the lights grew stronger and brighter, and color came with them. Different shades of colored light swirling around people and animals, and even plants, getting brighter every day. They were intense, causing her eyes to hurt and her head to ache from looking at them, and Macy felt almost blind because she couldn't focus on anything else around her, just the colors. She's started getting better at focusing so she can see what's happening around her. She's working on understanding what all of the colors of people's auras mean, but in crowds too many auras can be too confusing and too much for her to process. 

Character History:
Macy was born in Haye, Pennsylvania to Andrew and Nora Keen, eleven minutes after her twin sister, Valerie. Macy spent the first fourteen years of her life living in Haye. Andrew and Nora both worked outside of the town so they barely spent anytime there, but Val and Macy were very involved with the town. They went to school there, were a part of Girl Scouts there, all of the friends they spent time with were in Haye. Macy loved it there, until about a year after her brother Henry was born and the Keen family packed up and moved miles and miles away to sunny Miami, Florida.

It was a huge change, and kind of an abrupt one. Val and Macy hadn't been happy about leaving their lives in small town Pennsylvania behind for a new life in big city Florida. But Andrew had a new position at a Miami hospital, so that's where the family went. And the sisters adapted. They started high school, made new friends, fell in love with the beach, and moved on from Pennsylvania. She worked hard in school, graduated with honors, and went on to the University of Florida where she majored in nursing. Her father's career inspired her to also go into medical care, and her gravitated towards pediatrics. After four years of studying, working, as well as enjoying the freedoms college could offer, she graduated.

She eventually landed a position at a Miami hospital and moved back to the city she loved. And she was happy for a while. Even with all of the chaos and turbulence of the sudden Emergence. Macy didn't worry about it too much, having no reason to suspect that she was also an Emergent. Until the lights and the colors only she could see, as well as the eye pain and headaches, and when she woke up looking pale as a ghost. Her whole life went to hell after she Emerged. Her friends avoided her, she was fired from her job, and her parents unceremoniously disowned her. Val didn't abandon her, though, and with her sister's help Macy was able to flee Florida before the Feds could show up to take her to a camp.

She eventually wandered back to Haye, where she settled. No one recognized her, but she didn't care. It was quiet there and familiar. A good place to start over.

Psychological Profile:
It's amazing how developing magical abilities and being stripped of basic human rights can change a person. Introverted when she was once extroverted, reserved when she was once adventurous, Macy is nearly the opposite of who she used to be. Before she was fun loving and sociable, but also hard working and dedicated to her job. Now all she's concerned with is maintaining a low profile and hiding in plain sight so people can't see her for what she is. 

Macy loved her work, feeling it helped define her and gave her purpose, and now feels lost without it. One of the reasons she became a nurse was to help people, take care of them and make them feel safe. That part of her hasn't changed at all, but it's at odds with helplessness she feels. There are people out there who are like her, changed and afraid of everyone and everything. But there doesn't seem to be a goddamn thing she can do about it. All she can do is keep her head down, blend in, and survive.

Possessions: 
- A small 2.5 room apartment in the Haye Heights apartment complex. The building is a former boarding house, and a rather large one. The rooms were all converted into apartments some time ago. Due to the fact that the owner and landlord is an unpleasant person very few people want to deal with, the apartment was very affordable. It has a combo kitchen and living area, and a small bedroom with an attached bathroom. Over the past few months since settling in Haye Macy has managed to make it feel like a home, but she still feels as though she'll need to pack up and run at any moment.
- A rather large collection of medical supplies that she either took with her from her previous life, or acquired on the road to Hayes. 
- Art supplies, including canvases, paint, brushes, and an easel. Ever since her emergence and she was forced out of her profession Macy has had more time to paint than ever. She's happy to fill that time. 

Occupation:
Waitress at Bella's Italia, one of the nicer restaurants in town. The owner, Sal, is a good man who gave the desperate Macy a job when she needed it most. The tips are good, and the dim lighting is a plus because less people gawk at her unusual appearance. Sometimes Sal has her work behind the bar pouring wine.

Relationships
Bernard Jennings - Landlord. Owner of the Haye Heights Apartments, a large former boarding house whose rooms have been converted into apartments. Jennings is an unmarried and unpleasant 50 something man who is a strict landlord, a devout church goer, and very vocal about his opinions regarding Emergent rights. He hates those damn Shame-Kissers and he hates Emergents even more. "Those freaks belong in cages," he'll tell anyone who listens, "They're unnatural." Macy would rather live anywhere else, but unfortunately he had one of the only vacancies and the best prices in town.

Valerie Keen – Twin Sister. Defense Attorney in Florida. Macy's only remaining friend from her old life. Best friends for all of their lives, Val and Macy were fraternal twins who still looked remarkably similar to one another, that is until Macy's emergence. Macy was driven away by the rest of her family and friends, but Val refused to turn her back on her sister. She helped Macy get out of Florida, since they both knew that FEMA could arrive at anytime to have Macy dragged away to a camp. Val gave her sister money, helped her write some fake letters of reference, and bought her a bus ticket to take her north. They still keep in touch through email, but very discreetly.

Henry Keen – Younger brother. High school freshman. Living in Florida with the rest of Macy's family. A typical teenage boy, he knows what his parents think about emergents, but he has his own opinions. He's secretly fascinated with them and thinks they're scary, but also pretty cool. He also thinks it's pretty cool that one of his big sisters is one of them, but has been forbidden to contact her by his parents. He misses Macy, and Macy misses him, but she avoids trying to contact him. She doesn't want him to get involved in something dangerous.

Andrew and Nora Keen – Estranged parents. Andrew is a surgeon. Nora is a former English teacher and current high school principal. The five Keens were all very close knit, and a loving family. Until one of their daughters emerged and broke the family apart. Andrew and Nora had always been conservative, church going types, but Macy never expected they would react as they did. They disowned her and cut her out of their lives, as well as forbid their other children from speaking to her. Currently Henry is angry with his parents, but plays the dutiful son, while Val barely speaks to them.
