Her parents noticed this amazing feat at the age of nine when Ava stayed outside for 3 1/2 hours and never got sick or even felt chilled. Her parents confronted a priest about their child's "problem". The priest claimed that Ava was possessed by a demon. Ava, who followed her parents to the church and eavesdropped on their meeting, immediately ran away, crying at the thought of being possessed. She ran and ran into the woods, unfazed by the lowering temperatures. As she went further into the woods, she came across a cave. Needing a place to rest, she went into the cave. As she settled down, a strange, blue, floating orb appeared in front of her face. Ava swore that she heard the orb whispering "come with me" repeatedly. She felt like she could trust the orb and proceeded to follow it. The orb led her to this odd opening that had several statues standing in a circle. On the ground was a weird symbol. When she entered the circle, a man with eyes seemingly covered by a layer of skin appeared out of nowhere. He said he would take her to a place where she would be safe. She felt a strange connection with the man and went with him to place that was nicknamed "Afterlife". There, she met a woman named Jiaying who told Ava of the Inhumans and how she was one of them. She also learned that, unlike most Inhumans, Ava was already born with one of her powers but she was still incomplete. Ava still had to go through the ancient Inhuman ritual of "the mist". When Ava learned of this, she wanted to go through the mist as soon as possible. Jiaying did not let her. Ava didn't understand why as Jiaying did not give her an explanation. Weeks turned into months and Ava came nowhere close to going through the mist. It would be an understatement to say that Ava was impatient, for she was not only that but furious as well. When she confronted Jiaying, she said just wanted to see Ava connect with her powers more but Ava knew she was lying. Jiaying seemed to forget Ava had no other powers to connect with at that time. She needed to go through the mist. After a heated argument, Jiaying gave in and let Ava go through the mist. After the wonderful ritual was over, Ava came out looking the same on the outside, but a completely different person on the inside. Ava could now create beautiful winter marvels such as frost or a beast of nature like a snowstorm. Ava felt wonderful. But that wonderful feeling didn't last for long. Later that night, she saw Jiaying take the life of a fellow Inhuman. The fellow Inhuman being Ava's best friend that she made while staying in Afterlife. Ava felt a mixture of horror, devastation, and rage. But she didn't take out her revenge on Jiaying. At least, not right then and there. She couldn't be seen murdering her. Especially when Jiaying was obviously the stronger Inhuman. So, Ava found a way to leave Afterlife by lying to Gordon, saying that she needed to gather things from home and she did… but only so she'd be prepared to live on her own in nature after running away. From then on out, she quickly adapted to any and every situation she was in. She worked for many groups and organizations, every time joining one, learning more skills, and every time leaving one, being even deadlier than before. With vengeance-fueled determination and persistence, she taught herself how to contain and use her powers. Ava vowed to have revenge on Jiaying... but this time, she planned to exact that revenge on all other Inhumans. Special Skills: Has learned various martial arts. Is very adaptable. Is great at accents. Knows many languages. Other: Will work/will do anything for anyone if it includes money. Isn't great with technology. [/hider]
