"[i]Miss Cypress’ test scores were well under the minimum allowed for acceptance at Crystal Peak. However, at the behest of her parents, we repeated the test, but in verbal format. When being examined through this method, Miss Cypress was able to answer the majority of the questions correctly, elaborating on those that required her to do so and obtaining slightly above average scores. It is clear that she is unable to sit still for long periods of time, so accommodations would need to be made in order for her to academically succeed in our institution."[/i]

[color=6A5ACD][b]|| Practical test ||[/b][/color]
[color=FF6347][i]“I went in with the plan to do what I do best: let everyone else do all the work while I mooch off them. But something just kicked in when I was on the field, this protective instinct I only got when Lucia was in trouble, and before I knew it I was springing to action. Everyone was impressed with how well I worked with others and how helpful I ended up being-- myself included. They said cooperation, protective instincts, sense of urgency and courageousness were my best qualities on the field."[/i][/color]  

[color=6A5ACD][b]|| Written essay topic ||[/b][/color]
[color=FF6347][i]"I wrote about how I wanted to prove my family wrong by carrying on the Cypress legacy, but in my own way and on my own terms. I don’t like people to expect this or that from me. I am my own person with my own capabilities and outstanding qualities, and the only standards that will be set in my life are ones I deem for myself. 

Would I want to do this as a hero? [b]Absolutely not.[/b] That’s too much responsibility. But that part wasn’t included in the essay.”[/i][/color]

[color=6A5ACD][b]|| Video supplement ||[/b][/color]
[color=FF6347][i]"To be quite honest with you, I completely forgot we had to do a video supplement. Turns out that Lucia had submitted something for me: a video I had made for her of me dancing to Queen's 'Another One Bites The Dust' while doing all these crazy things with my powers. I know my parents wanted to kill me when they found out, but apparently the submission was so unique and unexpected that  that it got me the spot at Crystal Peak."[/i][/color][/indent]

Whoop-dee-fucking-hoo. I know for some people the idea of being an intern to Bechtel's #2 is like, fucking goals or whatever, but Uncle Norman is a [b]hardass and a half[/b]. Did I learn a shitton from him? For real-- I won’t deny it. I went into the whole thing with this really salty ‘woe is me’ mindset, but came out of it with some slick new moves and tons of knowledge I can use both on the field and daily life.

[indent]Noah Cypress is the girl your parents tell you to avoid because she’s a ‘bad influence’, and it may seem that way upon first impressions. Her extroverted demeanor, devil-may-care attitude, frequent partying, and fearless way in which she will stand up against anyone or anything for her loved ones and her beliefs can be intimidating to some. Yet those who get to know her on a personal level will swear to Noah being an incredibly supporting person, loyal to a fault, fiercely protective, and just someone you can trust with your life who you know will have your back. Do you need someone to listen to you? She’ll be there. Do you need unfiltered, honest advice? She’ll give it to you with your best interests at heart. Do you need someone to convince you to buy that expensive item you’ve been eyeing for months or go out tonight? She’s got you. Do you need a wingwoman for a night out, a cheerleader and/or someone to fight with you because someone did you wrong? She’s your girl.[/indent]

[indent]Noah is able to create, shape and manipulate soil and soil-based structures regardless of their state. Uses of her power include:
☄️ Burrowing
☄️ Causing earthquakes and mudslides.
☄️ Extracting boulders from the ground and hurling them at the enemy at high speeds.
☄️ Impaling the enemy with soil-made spikes.
☄️ Shaping huge walls/barriers from the ground.
☄️ Creating an omni-directional wave of soil around herself as defense from attacks.
☄️ Flight by standing on a piece of levitating earth.
☄️ Small mountain creation by causing the surrounding terrain to rise.[/indent]

[indent]Noah is unable to create soil, as she is only able to manipulate from already existing sources. She is also fairly new at utilizing some of the uses mentioned above, so even if they’re utilized they can still have defects prone to exploitation by enemies or may only be effective for a limited amount of time.[/indent]

[indent]In the rare occasions Noah is forced to see combat, she is able to infuse earthen materials in her physical attacks, covering her fists and feet in soil. She also utilizes the earth beneath herself and/or her opponent for defensive or offensive purposes.[/indent]

I'm minding my business, being quiet and playing nice (it's only the first day, after all) and there he was, straight out of a wet dream: Damon fucking Day. Messy blonde hair, athletic build, a sleek leather jacket, a devil may care attitude, and a smile that had me believing maybe God was a real thing after all. I was into him right off the bat, but when I saw him rip out of his clothes and turn into that big ole' beast tearing everything up during our first field practice? I truly thought I was going to cream my pants right then and there-- [b]it was so fucking hot[/b]. Shit. Sorry for being graphic, but it's the God-honest truth. I laid eyes on that man and in my infinite teenage wisdom, I wholeheartedly believed I was meant to marry him. We jumped into things quickly and impulsively after I gathered enough balls to make a move, and we ended up dating for a few very fiery, very intense, very passionate months…”[/color] she trailed off, reminiscing about her times with her ex before clearing her throat and carrying on. [color=FF6347]"But as you can see, it [b]obviously[/b] it didn't work out. I realized it was infatuation, not love, and our personalities were so similar they clashed where it mattered the most. There’s no hard feelings, though! We're cool, and I'm happy he's found someone that compliments him in the best ways. He deserves that.”[/color][/i][/indent]

[indent]When you think of the Cypresses, you think of intelligence, prestige, elegance, and their invaluable contribution and legacy to our world. When you look at Noah Cypress, you think of what would happen to that legacy if it were to fall on the shoulders of someone like her.

Noah Jean was born on the 31st of January of 2001. From the day of her early arrival, the first child of Colin and Melania Cypress had been going against any expectations set to her by others. Her parents, who had expected a boy, were surprised to find out at birth that they were now parents to a girl. When Colin and Melania had expected a soft-spoken, gentle, cuddly lady for a daughter, they got a loud, adventurous, thrill-seeking wild child that pushed the boundaries and tested their limits with her antics and evolving soil manipulation powers. Fortunately for them, their dreams of a little lady became a reality when Luciana was born. While Noah had resented the attention her younger sister got at first, her feelings were quick to change upon realizing she had gained a confidante, cheerleader, companion and someone to distract her parents while she got away with murder. And for a while, the Cypress family lived in happiness and harmony. 

Noah’s life shifted the same day Lucia’s did. After the incident with their mother when Lu was 10 years old, while Colin focused on meeting the needs of their younger daughter, Melania became all but fixated on her eldest daughter. There was obvious friction between the two strong-willed women, and arguments between mother and daughter soon became a norm in the household. While Melania disapproved of most of Noah’s behaviors and choices, Noah resented being placed under the microscope of scrutiny and the unreasonable expectations being asked of her, and Colin was forced to be the referee and mediator between the two. Leaving home to attend Crystal Peak Academy, although a difficult decision because she hated leaving Lucia alone, was a choice the older Cypress girl had to make for the sake of her mental sanity.

The distance away from Melania’s overbearing, watchful eye has done wonders for Noah. She’s made friends, she’s had lovers, she’s earned average marks on her studies and surprised herself with what she’s capable of. She has blossomed into the woman she’s always wanted to be, while learning, growing and becoming better each day. And now that Lucia would be joining her in this adventure, things could only go up from here.[/indent]
