Name: Haven

Gender: Female

Age: 99

Skills: Knows some fighting techniques but is not heavily skilled in it, can shoot a bow for both hunting and fishing, reading and writing, gardening, wide variety of knowledge, intuition and wisdom just from age, sewing, riding horses, cooking, good at listening and giving advice. Anything to do with camping she has been able to grasp or master.

Physical Description:
5'7"
Average/slim build
Blonde hair
Blue eyes
Slightly tanned skin from working outside
In general wears whatever she wants, whether it be overalls or a sundress or sweats or a jumpsuit from the 70s. She has amassed a collection and likes to show it off.

Personality: Haven lives up to her age. She enjoys nature, flowers, and lace. She loves fine China, sewing, and old western movies. She has a favorite rocking hair, can cook up a storm, and has a wide variety of knowledge about many things. She can fight but only when she knows it's the right thing to do. She has even purposely let herself be almost killed to save someone, but the bots put her back together before she could officially taste death. She thinks of herself as a healer and lover, not a fighter. She has no other supernatural abilities besides rapidly healing/increased durability. She does have strength and does many things other 99 year olds can't, but it's because of her superhuman durability/strengthened cells. Haven refers to herself as more of a nomad, preferring a simple, quiet life where she could even have a farm and flowers. She is surprisingly innocent for her age, but quick as a whip when necessary.

Background/History: Haven was born in the 1920s. Her father was a scientist who used his children as lab rats rather than blessings. While most kids were out playing stick ball, Haven was being reared as a specimen. Her father, as cold and lacking in basic human morals as he was, was a brilliant scientist. Because of his secret experiments, he was far ahead of his time with regards to technology. He specialized in robotics, developing nanotechnology almost 60 years before it's acknowledged conception. He had children with various women, allegedly "putting away" a few of them after the children were born. Much to his excitement, he found out that Haven had been born with some kind of mutation. She was stronger than most kids her age, and her skin seemed almost impervious to damage. Her bones were almost impossible to break and she healed when damaged rapidly. This made her the ideal experiment. She could be tested on repeatedly with no visible trace. But the mental and emotional traces remained.
One day, Haven's father decided to build upon her abilities. He strapped her down to a table and, without any sort of anesthesia as was the norm, he began injecting her body with a mix of fluids and nanobots. These nanobots began fusing with her cells in a temporarily painful way as she begged her father to stop. Eventually, as the bots settled within her and became part of her, the pain dulled. Whereas before, her abilities were somehow rooted in her genetic code, her father had now made her almost immortal.
As Haven's father unstrapped her from the table, he attempted to sever her right arm. He was eventually successful, the details of which I will spare you, even though they are forever etched in Haven's mind. The bots moved the severed arm and reattached it to her body, the damage clearing up in under one minute. Haven's father was thrilled and now wanted to show her off, along with his technology, to various government agencies to make him rich. Haven, being 19 at the time, but so sheltered that she had never left home, ran away that night. She found herself in various dangerous situations over the years, but obviously, was able to escape without too much in the way of damage.
Afraid her father used the technology on himself or someone else, Haven has tried to live a quiet life, under the radar and off the grid.

Name: Nadia

Gender: Female

Age: 27

Skills: archery, hunting, fishing, bushcraft, survival skills

Weaknesses: slow runner, does without thinking, soft spot for children

Physical Description:

Athletic build
Brown hair
Brown eyes
Tan and freckled
She tends to choose clothing based on function and comfort. Pockets are her favorite. She likes to wear what allows for free rage of movement, but also allows her to carry plenty of items, food, or weapons with her. She hates most colors on clothing and prefers black.

Personality: Nadia seems to find herself leading the pack wherever she ends up, even though she never volunteers. She has a driven, take charge attitude that looks like confidence to others. It's not confidence but instead this inability she seems to have to think much before acting. Nadia is not a day dreamer or artist. She does love to read, but only to escape her current world for a little while. She mostly operates in the present, not looking to the past and pushing into the future violently. She can stop and smell the roses, but only if she is comfortable, which is not often. She usually feels lazy if she is not doing something. She is a big softy inside, but rarely shows that side of herself for no other reason that it is more likely to get her killed. She wants to be every part of herself, including the soft parts, but it is just hard for her.

Background/History: Nadia's mother saved her as a child from certain death. She barely remembers her mother now. She was given to a man who had a safe place where he regularly housed children, believing that if he could train them, they could start a new society one day. He believed one day, the world would recover and heal. And these kids would either be the ones to live free, or the generation after them. In order to achieve this goal, every child was trained and made into a weapon. Nadia was trained alongside the other kids in various types of weaponry and combat, along with basic survival skills. Everyone did have their own preference which was accepted as okay. Nadia preferred archery. Others prefered handguns, medical, shelter making, etc. Nadia avoided medical at all costs. She found sickness annoying, and death to be vomit-inducing. One day, their home was raided by some scavengers that outnumbered them 10 to 1, so they fled. Nadia escaped along with most of the others. They had a little group that survived for years, trying to make their own little society. It was during this time, Nadia did something she still has not forgiven herself for. She let her guard down. She doesn't like to talk about it or give details, but the love of her life was killed during an attack. She was left alone and has been wandering, living a nomad life and searching for another surviving party to join. (Bits and pieces of her life will be revealed throughout RP).

Name: Isla

Gender: Female

Age: 24

Powers: can turn into a wolf at will, and must turn into a wolf against her will on the night of the full moon. Her wolf form is stronger, heals quicker, and is larger than an average wolf.

Weaknesses: she hates to transform because it is extremely painful, when she is in wolf form, she has extra strength and can withstand more along with healing quickly, but if she were to turn back human after an injury she would still be feeling that injury and not heal quickly like she would in wolf form. She is also generally a peaceful person unless she sees someone in trouble.

Physical Description:

Average build
Red hair
Emerald eyes
Pale and freckled
She tends to wear baggy or stretchy clothes most of the time, but occasionally will wear a dress. She just enjoys comfort so whatever is comfortable is usually what she will wear. As far as colors she prefers white or pastel colors.

Personality: Isla is not one to make trouble. She is rather soft spoken although she loves to talk. She might talk too much sometimes. Other times, she's the quiet girl in the corner when she has nothing to say. She has a slight Irish accent as her grandmother immigrated from Ireland and she grew up with her grandmother living with them and her mother having a mild accent as well. Isla prefers to stay out of drama though she find other's drama entertaining. She is sweet, kind, and a good friend. She doesn't like to fight and will do anything she can to diffuse a situation. Often looked at as a people pleaser,
Isla just gets joy from seeing others happy. And when others are in pain, she feels like she can feel their pain and she wants it to stop.

Background/History: Isla grew up in America with her family. They had eight people at once living in their home: Isla, her mother, father, 3 siblings, and her mother's parents. It was not a large house, and it was tucked away in the Appalachian countryside. They didn't have a lot of money to spread around, but Isla never felt like she wanted for anything. She loved her family more than anything. Growing up, her siblings mostly liked to play outside. Isla did for about 30 minutes at a time, and then she was ready to come back in. She preferred winter, blankets, rocking chairs, and a good book. Whenever they got to go to town though, she was the first volunteer. She loved chatting up locals and neighbors who all adored the little red haired sweetie.
Unfortunately, around the time Isla hit puberty, she began to mutate on the night of the full moon. She told her mother who told her not to tell anyone. She tried to hide her secret, and did so successfully with her mother's help, for 3 years. But around he age of 16, two of her sisters found out while following her one night. They let everyone in the house know. Isla's loving father became cold towards her. Afraid of what he didn't understand. Isla's grandparents tried various remedies and experiments on her to "reverse the curse." Isla's siblings began to fear her and excluded her from them. At the age of 18, Isla left home. She had graduated high school with fairly average grades. A high achievement considering the various issues she was dealing with.
Since leaving home, Isla has been looking for others with powers. She doesn't want to be the only freak. She currently works as a waitress but never on the night of the full moon. She's pretty sure her manager thinks she some kind of witch, but she prefers it that way rather than ever letting them know the truth.
Because of her abilities, Isla has done some of what you might call vigilante work. She has helped various people that were about to wreck, or get taken advantage of, or even almost beaten and saved them. She can only live with her powers knowing they help her sometimes serve a greater good.

Helena is a peaceful person first and foremost. She enjoys time alone, cups of tea, and the smell of morning fog in the forest. Her favorite season is Autumn and she finds herself most happy when surrounded by nature. It's not that she hates people though. In fact she loves them very much. She loves animals and plants as well. Helena loves books and quiet and often finds the real world so terrible she likes to escape, pretending her daydreams are real. Helena has enormous empathy. She hates seeing anyone or anything in pain or suffering. It's as if it is physically causing her pain to see others in pain. She is most driven by a desire to live in peace, and a desire to heal the world around her. She does care about herself to a degree, but cares about everyone else much more. Because of her personality, she is seen as a bit careless, idealistic, and too soft for this world at times. She likes to take her time with things and not rush, and tries to maintain a positive attitude. She has a tendency to get on some people's nerves because she doesn't like death, urgency, or complaining.

C H R O N I C L E
Helena's mother is a scientist within the UDF currently. Her mother has been involved with high value contracts related to energy since Helena was a small child. She never knew her father and never had siblings, so she was left with babysitters, or to her own devices. Even when left with sitters, Helena would escape and run to the nearest deserted place until she had satisfied her curiosity, and then return. This rebelliousness (as her mother termed it) caused her to go through a slew of babysitters growing up. She did have a consistent teacher, however, who schooled her at home. She never attended any sort of community school, and instead her mother solidified her isolation from the outside world. This is likely why she enjoys any other living thing so much, to both learn about them and protect them.
Helena's mother never paid her much attention until one day when her loyal tutor, Mrs. Margaret, told Ms. Westerly that her daughter was exhibiting stranger than normal behavior. When Ms. Westerly continued to pry, she learned Helena had told Mrs. Margaret that she could see orbs of light sometimes, and that she would often follow them into the forest. She also talked about having strange abilities where she didn't get hurt, and had healed an injured fawn in the woods.
Finally curious in her own daughter who was nearing adulthood by the time this was discovered, Ms. Westerly asked Helena to demonstrate what she could do. Helena tried to explain that she couldn't always perform at will, but she would try. She showed her mother her ability to heal a cut on her mother's arm just by pressing it with her fingers. She whistled and birds began flocking at the nearest window, begging to come in with loud chirpings. She could also create a sort of forcefield or barrier, but only big enough for herself at the time. Needless to say, her mother was thrilled that her daughter was apparently, an Aeon. Helena was just thrilled to have her mother's attention.
The gleam of feeling treasured did not last long, however. Because of her abilities, Helena was brought into her mother's work and trained. She saw her mother even less than she had prior, and she never saw Mrs. Margaret again. Instead, Helena's days were filled with learning all about the UDF and training to fight. The problem was, Helena wasn't a fighter. She surprisingly complied with training exercises, learning about weaponry and combat, but never intended to put it into true practice. Instead, the spirits within her attracted more, and she was soon able to extend her barrier, heal more severe wounds, levitate off the ground a short distance, and perceive potential threats just through her emotions, also within a short distance (like a sixth sense that something bad was coming up behind her).
Helena was eventually moved to medical and was used there for a couple years. She found working there incredibly boring and yet at the same time, fulfilling because she got to help people. She no longer has any desire to be around her mother, much less please her. All Helena really wants to do is help people, but perhaps have an adventure while doing so rather than sitting in medical, where her reputation was simply that of a healer. Now that Helena is part of the Special Warfare and Reconnaissance Group, she hopes to help in new, and more important ways, and wonders if her reputation is more than what she knows currently.


F O R C E
Helena attracts peaceful spirits and abilities. The amount of spirits within her is currently unknown. She can currently heal a person as long as they aren't dead and the injuries aren't going to kill them any time soon. Helena can create a barrier large enough for about 3 people comfortably. She can touch someone and bring them peace or rest, although she cannot force someone to fall asleep. She can levitate a short distance off the ground and for a short distance in terms of travel, but cannot fly, per se. She can sense things in terms of good or bad, but she questions this ability a lot and seems to ignore it half the time. She also has a weird sense of trust with animals, where they come to her at times and seem to feel safe around her.
