"I'm an Extra-sensory type. My power gives me info about what I can see and hear." Deborah said, giving an example of her ability. Aislin listened with interest, a light blush coloring her cheeks as she put two and two together. 

Amusement was written in every facet of her face, and she laughed as she removed her shades. The vivid blue of her eyes overshadowed the pink-ish hue at the edges. "How fascinating. Well, suppose I don't need these around ya. Besides, my eyes shouldn't be too red by now. Right?"

The white streaks of light she saw traveling between them earlier, that could have been Deborah's power. She remembered reading when the brain sent messages along its neurons, it was in the form of electrical impulses. Electricity and energy were almost synonymous, so what she saw must have been some kind of telepathic communication between them. That... Is so totally cool. I can't communicate like that.

When Shannon mentioned the invasion of privacy, Aislin quickly shook her head. "No way, it doesn't bother me. It's actually sooo incredibly relieving to be around others who understand. I actually got kicked out of my last highschool because I let my ability slip up. They called me a witch..." Aislin frowned, trailing off. That still really bothered her.

"Might as well continue the show-and-tell, though." She winked, pointing to her fork. "I have the talent to make this little guy get up and walk off the table. They labeled me under Other, whatever the hell that means. I can program objects to do things, with some concentration. Mainstream media calls it Animation, you know how they love their comics and superheroes."

Deborah's directions kinda sailed over Aislin's head since she couldn't begin to picture the school's layout in her mind. Dammit. Next time she saw a map she'd look for that pathway, but for the mean time she feigned understanding. "Ah, perfect. Maybe I'll go peruse it tonight before it gets too late."

Ailsin had a feeling they wouldn't be too against some fun. She noticed the table Deborah targeted was one she had debated sitting at earlier. It was still just as busy, though some had slipped away. The huge lizard man was still there, to her amusement. Muahaha, yes~! 

She nodded at Shannon, noting to not go too overboard. "I was thinking of maybe giving them a case of runaway cutlery. I could also have their plates do something cruel and fling their remaining portions of food at them. Buuuut, eh. That would be overdoing it. Especially with the expensively dressed kids. So yeah, runaway cutlery, unless you wanted to add anything. I can guarantee it'll be very amusing to watch."

Already Aislin felt invited to the table. Hallelujah~! She listened while slowly filling her face with delicious salad, ebbs of her growling stomach becoming sated. They didn't introduce themselves at first, the black lady looking at her very carefully. Aislin continued to munch veggies, comfortable with slow conversation.

They went quiet for a moment, allowing her to pick up on their auras with easier focus. She couldn't deny her curiosity a peek, especially with such an opportunity. Both girls had a pale hue glowing around their edges with many fluctuating patterns of colours. The black lady had streaks of red running through her aura, her friend had pulses of orange and lime. But Aislin cocked an eyebrow behind her shades when she saw a ripple of white zip down the black lady's arm and across her friend's body. The light played to and from a couple more times, and Aislin couldn't tear her eyes away. How fascinating. What could that possibly be?

The flashes of pink around their shoulders were undeniable, and the biggest smile played at Aislin's lips. Aw, they love each other. That's so cute!

She was on the downswing of being stoned, it was when she had the most awareness to kinda see things beyond what she normally would. Her eye softened behind the shades, drifting around the room. Everything in the room has a... kinda shimmer around it. The table's edges faintly glow. An aura? Does it... Does it mean all things have some amount of consciousness? Is that why I can wake them, because their low amount of energy can't allow them to interact in this dimension? ...Oh my god, mind blown.

She chuckled to herself, realizing how stoned that sounded. Taking a deep breath, Aislin flickered her gaze back to her new friends. A tickling sense of tranquillity swept through her body as she centered herself back on the conversation. "Ah, Shannon and Deborah. The pleasure is all mine."

She nodded her head while they gave their opinions on the school. "Mm, I'd have to agree with the whole paradise thing; the humid jungle outside surprised me. In a good way, I don't mind vacation and school at the same time."

When Shannon played at Deborah's power, Aislin immediately thought of the white pulses of light she saw earlier. Her curiosity begged her to ask, "Aw, you've hinted at it, now I have to know. Pretty please?" The casual grin returned to her lips. 

"But, yeah. If you need a pointer or two, just ask me. I'm probably going to give you better answers than anyone else."

Aislin tapped the table, chuckling. "I'm sure glad I sat here, I really appreciate that. In a place this huge I can already see myself getting lost repeatedly. But speaking of, I heard this Academy had like, a ginormous library. Where would I find it?" She leaned in further, a mischievous glint in her blue eyes. "And, uh... How do you feel about cafeteria pranks?"

Honestly, Cordelia's inner thoughts are such wicked fun to read. I'm actually kinda curious to see what she'll think of Aislin. >w>

Academy 218 - Superhuman School (Always open)

You. Read. My. Mind. XD
I've been debating on starting a devious food fight... Muahaha. We could definitely pull something, though.

Mr Allen J said
Also, I think she would fall under the Other Class. Her power rating would be... 6 And possibly your girl could talk to Shannon and Deborah (Post up in a second).

Nice, a 6. :3 I've added it to my sheet.

He Who Walks Behind said
Christ. The lizard ate a fork.

Haha, god that cracked me up. XD

Two hours on a boat? Well, others would be content with waiting it out, maybe talk to the other passengers. Not Aislin Rose. She was in one of the cabins below, door shut and blinds drawn. She sat on a bed, lighter in one hand and a joint in the other. A mischievous grin spread across her lips as smoke created a haze in the room. 

By the time she ventured up to the main deck two hours were up. Aviators, perfume and a pack of gum disguised whatever smell still lingered. The island was in sight, and it was beautiful. School at a tropical destination? It was like a vacation at the same time! Aislin spaced out as the island grew closer, going with the flow as the wave of bodies made their exit onto dry ground. 

She brushed a hand through her brown hair, hoping the wind hadn't messed it up too much. As they entered the school Aislin briefly considered removing her Aviators... But she thought better of it and sat in silence through the speech. Her eyes were likely red. But her paranoia didn't stifle the excitement bouncing around her chest. Finally, she was here. And so far, the Academy was very impressive. 

The moment they mentioned food, Aislin's stomach roared. Oh yeah, munchies. She made a beeline for the cafeteria, breathing in all the delicious scents. However, a sample of chicken tasted like chalk. She stuck to the leafy greens and veggies, half-drowning her plate in salad dressing. 

Now, where to sit... The cafeteria was filling up fast, and empty tables were few. A couple tables piqued her curiosity, like the one with a lizard-dude and expensively dressed students. There was a shiz ton of activity going on there, so Aislin moved her eyes elsewhere. Ooh, a girl with luscious pink hair sat by herself, maybe she'd be down for company. But as she moved in that direction, two others sat by her. Hmm. Maybe not then. 

Aislin noted a quiet table with only two ladies, both older than her. One had glasses and red hair, the other was black. Automatically cool. "Mind if I sit here?" Aislin put her plate down by the red-head and took a seat. 

"My name's Aislin. Both of you look like return students, you excited to be back?" She said with a casual grin, popping a cherry tomato in her mouth. 

Elementals: Void Assault

So...I think Xzayler is suppose to be back tomorrow... :p

[ Aislin Rose | 16 | Female ]
"Magic is within the bend of the illusory reality."

Fanart

Portrait of Aislin in her natural disposition


Aislin and Dana

Theme

Nickname/Alias/Etc: Curiosity 

Height: 5'4

Weight: 118 lbs.

Status: New Student

Appearance

Hair Color: Dusty brunette

Eye Color: Vivid caribbean blue

Ethnicity: Canadian/Caucasian 

Physical Appearance: Short, wispy hair, smooth skin and keen eyes. Aislin considers herself short, always taking notice of those she can actually see over. She's slim yet curvy, not a lot of meat on her bones. She's found her face more circular than she would like, but her high cheek bones make up for her modest chin. Her hands are tiny, but her fingers are long, slender, and not at all sausage-like. Her body is adorned with light freckles along her arms and across the bridge of her nose.

Attire: Aslin normally wears whatever she feels, and that's usually a flashy graphic tee and black skinnies, maybe a pair of aviator shades. She gets cold easy and likes to bring hoodies along. Sometimes on days when she's slept in and believes her hair is simply atrocious she'll tout a beanie -- stylish and time-saving at the same time~! 

Personality

Outward & Innate Personality: Aislin walks the world in awe of the magic she knows exists, holding close to her heart that reality is only how one perceives it. Previously living a good portion of her time alone, she's what you'd call a daydreamer -- her head is wrapped up in the clouds and she's content to keep it there. 'Curiosity' was at one point what her parents called her when she was known for her crazy explorations. New things, old things, interesting trinkets in antique stores -- these all bring joy to her. Music, nature and meditation is her soul-food. Spirituality and meditation is a big deal to her as it's the key in accessing her powers. She loves beautiful things and tries to create beauty. Love and peace come naturally to her; she couldn't hurt a fly, though injustice is something she'll never stand for. With that comes an intolerance for people's bullshit, only because it's the one thing that grates on her ears like none else. 

Her imagination is something she truly revels in, at one point bringing the excitement in her head down to paper in poetry and drawings -- since the manifestations of her ability she's gone beyond simple paper and ink. However, she's very private. She's excellent with talking to others, but she has no interest forging friendships with people who's narrow-minded-ness can't understand her philosophical, sensitive side. In that sense she can be very condescending.

In her dealings with friends and associates she is kind, humorous, and stays in the flow of the conversation's harmony. She embraces her emotions, often commenting that getting super excited is half the fun. Over time she becomes more intimate and shares little gems she's acquired in her ponderings. She does have a mischievous side, but it's mild and all in the name of fun. How Aislin is when she finds herself alone isn't much different. She's often experimenting with her ability, pondering, getting lost in some crazy adventure, or meditating. Her own temperament is one of light and fluidity, and she does not find pleasure in the dark. Well, that's not true. She likes weed, a lot, hehe.

Hobbies/Interests:

-- Weed
-- Drawing/Poetry
-- Reading/Learning
-- Taoism 
-- Music 
-- Nature
-- Collecting curious objects 

Skills/Talents:

Prized Possession: Her stuffed penguin, a well-loved stuffy she sleeps with every night and has owned since her humble days at the orphanage. She'll often carry intimate conversations with Tao about her concerns and insights. If she's super bummed about something Tao will come with her. Everywhere. Like a security blanket. 

Quote(s):

"Magic is within the bend of the illusory reality."

History/Bio: Her earliest memories took place in an orphanage. She had no idea who or where her biological parents were, but she made due with what she had. By the time she was adopted, her room was covered from ceiling to floor with abstract colours and designs. Already at a young age she had the desire to fill up white spaces, walls were no exception. Because it in fact improved the room, the caretakers kept it.

She was nine when she left the orphanage, adopted by a well-off business couple who wanted a perfect child without the hassle of raising a baby. They adored how imaginative she could be, giving her all kinds of expensive art supplies to fuel her creativity. But typically they were too busy with work-related things to give her the full amount of love and attention she needed. Yes, there were hugs and kisses. Yes, they treated her kindly and fed her plenty. There was always money for nice things, and she was a little spoiled. But to sit down with her mother or father, one-on-one? That was rare indeed. 

In later years Aislin quickly grew accustom to an empty house while her parents were away on business trips, staying late at the office and the like. They did try to give her playmates from the neighborhood so she wouldn't be so lonely, but Aislin found she had no desire to connect with girls addicted to their phones, make-up, and gossip. Eventually they stopped coming over, which left Aislin an infinite amount of time to do whatever she wanted.

In her time alone she was never bored, always bursting with new ideas. Always looking up new bits of information on the Internet. Always trying new things. Exploring the nature outside for inspiration. Honestly, at first an empty house scared her. But she found the peace and quiet almost preferable to having to share the sound-space. Her solitude was only ever unbearable when she thought there were monsters in the closet, or if a genius idea struck her. 

Eventually Aislin began noticing the strange phenomena surrounding her on occasion. Rippling floor boards, walking cutlery, you name it. Her first instinct was not one of fear, but of curiosity. Through experimenting profusely she was able to re-create certain phenomena when in a quiet state of mind, and she quickly learned meditation techniques to further intensify this state. She found herself animating water that could roll along the floor, artful designs on the wall that danced to life, and a number of little things that opened Aislin's mind to this: "Magic is within the bend of the illusory reality."

In her day-to-day life Aislin kept her new gift a secret, and did so for months until one day in school. Her daydreams veered into a state of non-thought, the same state she needed when breathing life into the cutlery back home. Before she knew it her eraser grew a mind of its own and decided to waddle off the edge of her desk. They ended up playing cat-and-mouse under the desks, attracting the entire classes' attention to the chase and eventual wriggling rubber in her hands. Jaws hit the floor, and someone whispered, "Wiiiitch..." Aislin excused herself from class, walked home, and cried. 

Shortly after, Aislin was expelled from that school for 'mis-behavior'. Really, she knew they were grasping straws. What the school didn't understand, they feared. Somehow they must have placed her in the same category as the strange phenomena, and decided to remove themselves from it completely. Mr. And Mrs. Rose were furious when they heard, immediately protesting against the administration board. 

It was this that led to an invitation from Academy 218, and the moment Aislin saw the card, she was excited. Like, her excitement was so intense, it was like rainbows threatening to burst from her chest. This was what she needed, a place more suited to her and her ambitions. She didn't care who or what, she wanted to be at the Academy as soon as she could. Her parents were happy to oblige.

Abilities

Power Class: Other 6

Power: Animation -- "The power to give crude life to inanimate objects. Not to be confused with Creation as the lives of animations are tied to the user and not their own." ~SuperpowerWiki

To animate say, a chair, Aislin would quiet her mind and focus on nothing but her intent for that chair. Executed perfectly, the chair would wiggle, as if waking up. After something's awoken it's actions are 'independent' of their animator, but are always in tandem with her. She's programmed them with intentions that she can change on a whim, dictating what the chair does. Animations don't speak, but are normally curious and playful in peaceful situations.   

In animating a drawing the process is much the same. The image of whatever drawn pops off the page and becomes part of the three-dimensional realm, programmed with their animator's intents. Not very durable in fights, though. A couple hits will down them as it's simply pencil graphite holding them together. 

If Aislin lets too many wordy thoughts enter her mind, she'd lose her focus on the animation. They have been known to 'die' right then on her, and she'd have to start the whole process over again. It can be very frustrating. 

Weaknesses/Limitations/Drawbacks:
-- Cannot animate corpses.
-- Cannot animate living, sentient beings. 
-- The heavier/larger the desired object, the harder it is to animate. 
-- Requires a constant feed of focused thought to function (thought is energy.) 
-- Limited to a small amount of animations she can utilize at one time. 
-- With all her animations there is a time-limit to their life. They might last up to 12 hours, but they usually end prematurely just because their very nature is delicate. 

Other: She brought a half-ounce of weed to the Academy, keeping it hidden in a metal/crystal clock in her luggage. Eventually she'll have to seek out the island's dealers. 

Often her free spirit trait can be confused for defiance against authority. Aislin does not enjoy being told what to do, and if she happens to break the rules, so what. She was out on an adventure, and no rule was/is ever gonna stop her. 

Aislin has a fear of public humiliation and being disliked. 

All her life she's seen shimmers of colour around people and other organic things. Eventually she associated the colours to emotions due to the fact that enough people revealed how they felt after she saw their colours. Only in recent years did she learn what she occasionally saw were people's auras, or energy. Currently no one knows about her little gift, but she does use it to sate her curiosity.

Like Jazz said, all sheets go into the deposit. That power... The sheet is cool and all, but I really don't like that power. It seems way too much like reality warping and has way too many variables. Sorry but I'm going have to ask you to change it.

That's just fine, I edited it to something else. Perhaps it'll be a little more suitable. :)
I'll also add it to the deposit.
