Pale skin, green eyes, and headphones that are usually worn anytime she's out, aside from the dyed hair she usually doesn't stand out. She carries herself casually, often dressing in sweats and comfy clothes that are easy to workout in. She has a nose piercing that she usually takes off whenever she has a game.

Despite their busy lives, her parents went out of their way to make sure their family was a wholesome one. Sebastian often took them on vacations, made sure they bonded with movie nights, and even had a 'golden rule' that no matter what, they would sit down and have at least one meal as a family. As such, Isla's environment growing up was a positive one, with much encouragement from her parents to do whatever his heart desired. She loved watching baseball with her father and even at a young age made it her life's goal to play professionally. Around seven years ago, Ava came home to find her mother collapsed on the floor. After rushing her to the hospital, it was discovered that she had an inoperable brain tumor. Despite their intention to hide it from their children, little would be done when it was revealed that the tumor was cancerous. Every day Elena grew weaker and weaker, but not once did she ever show her pain to her children. Her sunny deposition made it both easier and harder for the family, but she managed to keep them together. Elena would die by the end of the year, and the Black household seemed to come to a halt. Ava distanced herself, getting caught up in a whirlwind of grief and anger, and Sebastian took of a position that required him to travel frequently--something he had never thought of before. Isla often found herself alone most times, though with her father away for weeks at a time, she took it upon herself to try to reign Ava in, to little avail. Isla found out very quickly that she couldn't handle parenting a little sister who never listened to her and ended up hating her father for it. She would take the first college that would accept him as far away as she could be--Ohio University--and left as soon as she was accepted. Despite knowing that she was running away from the problem, she refused to confront it, choosing instead to focus on her future. She integrated with her team well enough, though her coach often warned her that she needed to be more of a team player.[/color][/indent][/indent] [color=pink][sub][ ❇ ] M I S C E L L A N E O U S[/sub][/color][hr][indent] [color=pink][sub][b]Gear[/b][/sub][/color][indent][color=gray][i]Hybrid Backpack/Duffel Equipment Bag[/i] which is currently carrying [u]two baseball bats[/u] (one wooden one metal), her [u]cellphone, charger and extra battery pack[/u], [u]makeup kit[/u] (includes mirror, eyeliner, matte lip-stain), [u]First Aid kit[/u], [u]taser[/u], [u]pepper spray[/u], and way too many gusher packs (all strawberry flavored).[/color][/indent] [color=pink][sub][b]Skills[/b][/sub][/color][indent][color=gray][list][*][i]Athleticism[/i] - As she is on her way to becoming a professional athlete, this is a given.
