[b][color=F3E010]Personal Style:[/color][/b] The typical type of clothing that she prefers to wear is jeans, a shirt, and a light weight jacket of sorts that is tossed on top of it all, with combat boots. She tends to like to wear something that has a slight hint of style to it, but is fairly comfortable for her to wear. There isn't too much else that she likes to wear, this is the sort of clothing that she likes to wear, however for the past several years she hasn't really worn much in the ways of colors aside from black and green, but she was able to have some blues in her wardrobe.

With the life she's had and what she has endured for the past 12 years, it is kind of hard not to think that sort of thing. She is very withdrawn and doesn't trust anyone all too easily, as if they are all out to get her. Personally, Sparky has no idea what to think of herself, and wouldn't really think anything of who she is as a person, but that didn't matter at all. The things that have happened during her life so far have shaped who she has become as she grew older, and nothing like that can easily be forgotten. [b][color=F3E010]Sexuality:[/color][/b] Heterosexual [b][color=F3E010]Relationship Status:[/color][/b] Single [b][color=F3E010]Personality:[/color][/b] Sparky is a withdrawn individual whose past shapes who she is as a person. She is mistrustful of everyone that she interacts with, and doesn't trust anyone she doesn't know, which doesn't make things very easy when it comes to making friends. Though she is fairly friendly once you get to know her, getting to know her at all is near impossible as she shuts down and doesn't listen to anyone if she can't help it. Her intelligence is something that sticks out though when someone meets her, and she won't hesitate to partially prove that she is the smartest one in the room if she is able to.

It was clear from a young age that her mind didn't even seem to work the exact same as those of her siblings, as she started thinking about ways to get electrical circuits to move along. To create them on her own, and her parents both believed that there likely wasn't many opportunities for her to really excel where she was, and they were both having problems with understanding the way that her mind worked. When she was 8 years old, they decided to send her away to a boarding school, however this resulted in her resenting them, as the boarding school was insanely far away from her home in the United States, nope, she was heading to of all places Norway. She never really spoke much to her family, due to the problem of time zone differences. However, she did make one friend that she truly cared for, and that was when she met someone who was a year older then her, and his name was Raynor Blake. It helped her to forget her family, and what they had more or less done to her by sending her away, the instant that she had a friend. He helped her to understand how things worked in Norway, as well as helped her to learn the native language there. As they grew older, she developed a bit of a crush on him, but she never told him anything about that, just continuing to play off as being just friends for right now. Though Lana was never going to get the chance to ever really tell him about how she felt, since everything changed not long after she had turned 16 years old. There were talks of a cult that had formed in the area, but no one ever really thought much of it, that is, until they attacked the boarding school that had been her home for so long. The gunfire and chaos that ensued caused ringing in her ears, and before she knew it, she and a few others from her class ended up being taken away from the school, by the cult that she learned was called the Children of Loki, the Norse trickster god who always caused chaos. That was the end of her old life, and the beginning of her new one. For the first few years, she fought back against the cult that had pulled her away from her old life, but whenever she fought back it only ever resulted in her getting hurt. It's partially how she got the scars that were now on her body, and like all of the other "new recruits" into the cult, she had the symbol for Loki tattooed on her neck. After a while, she fought back less and less, and eventually, after 4 years, she finally broke and gave into what they were doing, and soon started to believe in what it was that they were doing. She learned how to fight, and soon was going off with them on more then a few trips to bring in new members, and more then once did she end up taking the life of an innocent person because of this. In order to cope, her mind shut out most of what it was that was going on, and refused to acknowledge what it is that she was doing. Her one solace was the fact that the cult didn't seem to be against reading or writing, and she immersed herself into fantasy worlds, as well as comic books, in order to get away from her reality. The pain that she has endured so far in her life, it hasn't been great. The cult leader gave "sermons" once a week, and every so often if he thought a member of the cult wasn't fully into the cause, they would be shot dead on the spot, and a funeral would happen later that night, before they were buried. She always worried that there would be a reason for the leader to just kill her, and every so often she personally would think about maybe that sort of thing not being a bad thing, but there wasn't much she could do but survive.
