[indent]Marcella has naturally dark brown hair and unassuming if somewhat piercing green eyes. She has a small nose, and a small mouth making her eyes look all the larger. Her face is mostly rounded and soft typically others seem to think she ‘looks nice’. She is commonly found wearing one of two outfits. A more work appropriate blouse and skirt combo, or a much more casual tank top and jeans/yoga pants. She also sports large, over the ear headphones to help drown out noise. She is the type to generally be caught looking over her shoulder and has more than a few fidgety mannerisms, for example: drumming her fingers on the nearest hard surface she can find. She has a small tattoo on her ankle that she regrets from her eighteenth birthday.[/indent]

[indent]To start at a skin deep level, Marcella is a boisterous rather amusing person. Never one to shy away from making a joke or putting herself out there. She is constantly attempting to make friends, but is fairly bad at following through with plans or keeping in touch. As this has been a problem present for most of her life she does not have many friends – but primarily it manifested as an issue for Marcella at the brisk age of ten. 

Going a little deeper than that however, it becomes apparent Marcella isn’t leading a very healthy life style. What with the constant	 cup of joe, bags under her eyes, and always having to ask people to repeat themselves. She is in a constant state of overtiredness much due to her ado with her mediumship. She doesn’t like her ability all that much – although she’d have to be remiss to let you know that. Marcella is very much afraid of more than a few things. The primary situations being death, as every dead voice she’s heard so far has been restless and very much in pain, and commitment. She has no idea how to go about a relationship or loving someone, she barely knows who she is after all. As such, she is horrified by the concept of commitment. The commitment to someone, to help them and be helped by them.

At the end of the day Marcella’s biggest detractor will always be herself. Constantly scolding herself and overanalyzing her interactions with people. Even though it may not be immediately evident or clear to someone she is speaking to at all. The most surprising thing about her interactions is the gross dichotomy of the ‘Marcella’ she presents to others and the one she truly is.[/indent]

[indent] Aren’t we all looking for love? Marcella isn’t – at least, not yet. She’s gay, single and looking to strictly mingle. She has a huge problem with commitment after all. If you’re thinking of walking down that avenue you should be warned, she’s a mess.[/indent]

[indent]Marcella, even from a young age was always a kind of weird person. She didn’t [i]really[/i] understand how best to interact with people her age and often times found herself missing out on birthday parties as a young child. Early on, Marcella had two passions in her life. While her father tried to push her towards Hockey it started, of course at skating. It was around her fifth or sixth lesson when she realized that she had grown enamored. She began figure skating at the age of eleven and from that point it was a massive part of her life. Her second passion is operatic singing and music. While she doesn't have the voice for it herself she, at a school trip to the opera she became immediately and intensely interested in it.

Her mother was always very supportive of her decision to study figure skating in lessons and opera in an academic setting. She was set on it from such a young age, she may even make friends, her mother would rationalize.

However, when Marcella was in high school she began to be looked at strangely. She was used to having a lot of alone time. But this was different. This was like she was poisonous. She would look at someone else and they would look away. Marcella didn't get it. It took a while to find out that along with the popularization of Facebook, so to came group chats. Some rumours had been spread about her and she became a running joke. It took a year to even find out what the rumours were, mostly nonsensical bullshit. But it affected her confidence deeply.

That's why when Marcella turned Eighteen and moved to Verona, she was as outgoing as possible. Always making jokes attempting to be friends with just about anyone that'll listen. But Marcella has little to no follow through on a strong opening swing. When everyone fell asleep, however, Marcella awoke a different woman. She was no longer alone.

Now Marcella can hear the voices of the dead. But the issue, is that she can't not hear them. [/indent]

[indent]At this point (the beginning) of the RP, Marcella has very little power or control over it. She can currently hear the voices of the dead, though she has only luck to hope for with communicating back. When she is near a place in which someone who has died has attached their spirit to, that voice is the most commanding. So it can be a different voice every couple minutes on a bus/car ride. Marcella finds it incredibly distracting.[/indent]

[indent] One of the main issues Marcella constantly runs up against is that she does not use her abilities. They are a fact of life as she has not found any way in which to turn them off so to speak. This has caused serious mental stress, and has honestly impaired her judgement to a quite real degree. Marcella has a low amount of willpower and is easily tricked, partially because she is quick to want to leave a situation and partially because of her constant tiredness and her trouble sleeping.[/indent]
