☠ The Edge Of Extinction ☣

@Sven the Silent But doesn't he explain it in the first few lines of his bio?

Originally, Viktor was sent in with a squad of men to take in civilians and direct them to safe haven. They were supposed to be a relief force to the area. They were joined by a few German soldiers they had run into along the way. The story was that command had cut off communications with them and left them to die.

Seems like an acceptable reason to me, unless I'm missing something over here?

☠ The Edge Of Extinction ☣

"Beans, plums-- canned tomato soup? Score!"

A mop of red hair appeared from between two counters, a large grin plastered on the pale face as Maxine peered down at the still untouched soup can in her hand. After months of barely finding anything, this house was a dream. It had everything, surprisingly. Some spare clothing - albeit it was too large for her thin frame, but she wasn't one to complain - and now some delicious food.

Pulling her leather backpack from off her shoulder, she set it down onto the counter before filling up her bag with the food she had found. She didn't even leave the expired products, at least she could use some of those to lure some animals later for hunting. Once the contents of the kitchen cabinets were stripped bare, Maxine zipped up her bag and left the kitchen, headed towards the joint drawing room.

Maxine walked past a fireplace, cobwebs filling each corner of the room with a thick layer of dust over each surface, indicating no life - whether living or dead - had passed through these walls for at least a few years. She glanced at the pictures on the mantle, eyes gentle as she took in each face within those frames carefully; an old woman sitting on the arm chair alongside two younger faces, who were both standing behind the woman with goofy grins.

She was still surprised how stocked the house was. She could only imagine that the occupants had gone off on a holiday before the borders had been shut, refusing them access to their own homes. It was sad, but Maxine didn't want to imagine anything else. She just wanted to hope that the old occupants of the household had found somewhere safe to hide, still alive and kicking after all these years.

It was naive, but a hope nonetheless.

Bang!

Maxine jolted, eyes widening and heart pounding against her chest as she leaned her arm against the wall to keep herself balanced. The sound came from upstairs, she was sure of it. Terrified, Maxine slipped her hand under her shirt, tugging her hunting knife loose from its binding to grip onto the handle tightly. Rather than engaging whatever the fuck was up there, Maxine decided it was best to leave, quietly through the closest exit, which in this case was the front door.

Creeping out of the room, she peered around the corner of the doorway, making sure the coast was clear before stepping carefully towards the door. Each step against the wooden flooring caused the girl to wince, the anticipation of the old wood creaking and alerting the creature upstairs making Maxine almost sweat with nervousness. Reaching the door, she reached out for the handle before another crash was heard, this time closer towards the wooden staircase. Deciding not to stay at the house for a second longer, Maxine ripped the door open, bolting away from the house.

In The Mirror

In Depth Appearance:

Barely reaching 5'1" and weighing only 50kg (110lbs), Cara gives the impression of being cute and harmless. While she likes to be known as cute, harmless is something she's certainly not. The petite girl has an hourglass figure, hips wide but waist slender, usually maintained by her rapid metabolism and strict diet (other than chocolate, Cara can never resist anything chocolatey).

Cara has a dimple on her left cheek, an indication of her smiley nature. She also has a naturally tanned complexion, complementing her brown hair and eyes. Speaking of eyes, Cara has wide doe eyed brown orbs, giving her an innocent look which is framed with thick, dark eyebrows. She also has shoulder-length brown hair, thick and kept straight with overgrown fringes that frame her somewhat chubby cheeks perfectly.

Clothing Style:

Cara loves to dress up, no matter the occasion. She loves to wear various skirts and dresses, as long as it's chic and cute (to match her bubbly-looking appearance). She also likes experimenting with her clothes, so one day she may go for a bold design, or the other she'd wear something simple.

Make-up wise, Cara loves to define her eyes, either with some eyeliner or with dark eyeshadow. Lip colours vary depending on her mood or the situation, usually switching from naturals, pinks and bold reds.

Delving Deeper

Likes:

• Tea
• Terrible romance drama films
• Cycling
• Reading
• Chocolate

Dislikes:

• Doing nothing
• Coffee
• People who call her a control freak
• Anything cold
• Debby-downers

Fears:

• Losing control of her life
• Suffocating
• Letting people too close

Habits:

• Tapping her fingers against surfaces
• Playing with her hair
• Pouting her lips while in thought

Personality:

♦ Kind ♦ Control Freak ♦ Blunt ♦ Stubborn ♦ Manipulative ♦

At first glance, people assume that Cara is docile and harmless, the cutesy one, if you will. However, Cara is anything but docile. She has been known to argue and stand by her points (and values) no matter what, her stubborn streak comparable to that of a boulder. Her stubbornness paired with her controlling personality can make her quite the unpleasant person to hang around with, most of the time. However, Cara refuses to acknowledge herself as a control-freak, that's one thing that would piss her off.

Cara is very confident, in herself and her abilities. She is also always found with a smile (whether its fake or genuine, people usually can't tell). Don't get fooled by her sweet smile, however, as Cara can potentially use her 'sweet, innocent appearance' to dupe people. Cara also likes to consider herself honest, but most of her 'honesty' is just the blunt truth. She never sugar-coats her words (unless she's fooling someone), her words usually unfiltered.

Overall, Cara can be nice when she needs to be, but piss her off and she can be a vindictive little bitch.

History

Background:

Born in the English countryside, in a small town where everyone knew everything, Catherine had a normal childhood. Or, as normal as one could get having seven older siblings. It wasn't like she was neglected or abused in the household, but Catherine knew that she wasn't the most wanted child. Having to compete with seven other children for any attention, Catherine developed into a loud, stubborn child that was hard to reason with unless she was bribed with chocolates.

Catherine was encouraged to pick up many hobbies, including dancing and painting alongside furthering her education. Most of her siblings were average students, Catherine included. However, the girl had found her calling in life: to be a surgeon, where she had the contol and power to save lives. The medicine path motivated the girl throughout her childhood and teenage years, making her a hard-working student and achieving good grades even though she wasn't a genius.

This remained until Cara finished her secondary education, achieving high grades - especially in science and maths. The girl, during her hunt for a university, stumbled on a town named Tallshade hidden within the forest. Liking the prospect of moving away from the stuffy town, Cara applied immediately for a medical course, before packing up and moving out as soon as she hit eighteen.

Cara performed well during the first few years of her medical degree, studying hard and maintaining her work ethic like back at home. Cara met The Mentor during one of her panic-study sessions at the local library. Funnily enough, the girl actually screamed out 'I wish I could get them to listen to me!' before she noticed The Mentor beside her. Offering her powers in exchange doing whatever he wanted, the girl accepted immediately.

That was a year ago, and now, Cara loves her life.

Position in the group:

Cara's desire for control means that she strives to be a leader, even if she's not the best person to lead a team. She likes to consider everybody in the group as friends, or at least some of them, but it doesn't mean that they're exempt to her blunt and bold personality.

☯ Neutral || ☮ Friends || ♫ Best Friends || ♥ Love Interest || 💕 Boyfriend/Girlfriend || ⚡ Rivals || ⚔ Nemesis

☮ Eddie ☮

Sweet guy, but he just needs to stand up for himself. Cara likes Eddie enough to try and tame her bold personality so she doesn't scare him off (even if it's not much difference). Cara doesn't like Nina's tendancy to bully Eddie, which often results in her advising him on ways to defend himself - her advice usually coming out as forceful.

☯ Terry ☯

Cara appreciates her observant nature, knowing that her fake smiles don't work on the quiet girl. Cara tends to just stay away from Terry, more because she doesn't know how to approach her without losing her cool.

☮ Sloane ☮

Bold and proud, Cara definitely likes Sloane, acting friendly enough to her. If she were attracted to women, she would've been attracted to Sloane.

☯ Robert ☯

Robert's playful nature reminds her of an excitable puppy. Cara doesn't mind going along with many of his schemes, as long as she doesn't consider it stupid. Again, like with many of the others, Cara remains friendly with Robert, as long as he doesn't make her feel like she doesn't have control during his schemes.

☮ Toby ☮

He's quite the looker, but withdrawn. She doesn't know much about Toby, and while she's curious, she doesn't bother to ask. There is a possibility that Cara could be attracted to Toby, but its more of a physical thing, rather than an emotional one.

☮ Nick ☮

Like the little brother of the group, Cara can understand what its like to be the youngest sibling, but she doesn't baby Nick either, no matter how adorable he looks in his ferret form.

⚡ Nina ⚡

Nina and Cara have a hot and cold friendship: one day they could get along well enough to watch movies and hang out with each other, the next they could easily grate on each other's nerves.

☮ Angel ☮

Angel is one girl that Cara knows she can have a argument debate with, no matter how heated it may get due to their stubborn nature. Both also from England, Cara likes to think that the two are friends. She doesn't mind showing Angel around Tallshade, since Cara understands what its like to be new in a different environment.

Extra:

• Cara speaks with a hint of a British accent, one of the only hints to her British background.
• She's trying to give up smoking, after having a little health scare a while ago.

Dark powers:

Animal Form:

Mexican Black Snake

Power:

Cara has the ability to make people hear whispers. It's not her speaking, but just simple idle chatter as if someone is right behind them, even if no one is there. Serves as a great distraction tool during exam season, though.
