[b]Name:[/b] Elaine "Lain" Cross

[b]Age:[/b] 15

[b]Gender:[/b] Female 

[b]Species/Race:[/b] Shapeshifter

[b]Powers:[/b] 
[i]Shift[/i] - Lain can shift into different forms. She has one form that she can easily transform into, a [url=https://images.indiegogo.com/file_attachments/1285229/files/20150310191003-nomad_red_ginger_with_earth_and_white.png?1426039803]Wolf[/url], but the others take some time and effort. She has one shift that will avoid at all costs, to the point of not even mentioning it or why. Her power is a bit unstable and occasionally, she may lose control over herself when she shifts. The only form she will never lose control in is the Wolf form.

[b]Weaknesses:[/b]
[i]Control[/i] - As mentioned before Lain has a hard time controlling her powers and her different forms. The more tame the form, the more easily she can control them. The same goes for how often she has shifted into that form. The more time she spends in a certain form will increase her control over it but... at what cost?

[i]Shy[/i] - Lain is rather shy when it comes to using her powers. She doesn't like using them because they scare her but she will often use her wolf form to get out of situations that make her uncomfortable.

[i]Weak[/i] - Lain, in her human form, is very weak. If she does not shift, she is of use to no one, really. She is not strong and cannot lift heavy things and she gets sick very easily.

[b]Personality:[/b] Elaine is a very shy individual, especially when it comes to talking about her powers. She tries very hard to break out of her shell but often chickens out before really getting anywhere. She is not very brave and given the choice of fight or flight, she will always choose flight. She cannot stand violence of any degree and would rather avoid conflict than face it head on.

[b]Background:[/b] Elaine grew up with normal parents but... when she shifted for the first time she nearly killed her best friend. From that point on, her parents feared her, as much as they tried not to. Elaine understood this from a young age. Her parents loved her, but who wouldn't be scared of a toddler than could shift into a full sized bear and kill you all without realizing she was doing it. Elaine, from there, was shifted from orphanage to orphanage, never really staying in one place for very long. She had friends but once she shifted without meaning to, it was all lost. Everyone was afraid of her, no one was an exception. By the time Elaine turned 13, she'd finally found a way to control her emotions so that she didn't shift every time someone scared her or made her angry. However, even now, given a large enough shock, Elaine may still shift without warning.

-are we surprised?, no-

And there you go. This'll be the first character I've played under 18 in a very, very long time. Takes me back to the days of that one RP I can't even remember the name of anymore. RIP.
