Kijani headed to the cafeteria late. She'd stayed to have Thor correct her form and introduce her to a more advanced technique. Now she was starving, but happy. She grabbed a tray and got a very large cheeseburger with the works, along with a salad and several bottles of water. Then she scanned the cafeteria, wondering where she'd sit today.

Oh this will be interesting with Kalinda, an emotional manipulator herself lol


Heh. You got yours in just before I finished mine, her history hung me up some.

But yeah, Devika's pretty strong, mostly because that's her only power. All her attention goes into it.
Name: Devika Jones
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Parents: Birth- Empath (Manuel Alfonso Rodrigo de la Rocha)/Unknown mother.
Raised: Anne and Reginald Jones
Powers: Able to sense, absorb, induce and influence people's emotions.
Bio: Devika was, oddly enough, an orphan foundling. Not of the 'picnic basket on the doorstep' variety, but close enough. Her parents found her in a park in the middle of summer. The baby wearing nothing but a diaper and a gold bracelet engraved with her name. Reginald and Anne Jones searched for the baby's parents everywhere, in every database the two laywers had access to, but there was no trace of them. By the time they figured out that her parents were long gone, they were already quite in love with the infant. They had never been able to have a child of their own, and so, feeling fate was giving them a gift, they adopted Devika.

Devika's power was discovered when she was very young. She seemed to be a normal kindergardener, though she was rather on the high-strung side. That all changed one day on the playground. A little boy fell off the monkey bars and broke his wrist. While the child was getting medical attention, the paramedics noticed little Devika, crying her eyes out, holding her swollen right wrist. They checked her as well, but discovered absolutely no injury on her. Once this was reported to her parents, they started to put the pieces together. They started to teach Devika meditation, and how to keep her emotions in check.

16 years later, as an adult, Devika began to get very unhappy. Her powers were under control, but she felt like she was missing a large part of herself. She wanted to know who she was- and what she was really capable of. She was tired of living only part of her life, and so, with her parents help, she enrolled in the Academy. It took her several months to unenroll from her university, which is why she showed up in the middle of the semester.

Watch from 1:10 on for an example of what Kijani's learning.
Kijani was in the middle of Thor's Ancient Weaponry class, learning a new form with her jian. She spun her blade in elegant loops, twisting and spinning around the outdoor classroom. Her strikes were quick and efficient, a stab here, a stab there. The training dummy didn't stand a chance.
Oh my god, Sue, he wants to give you -brain surgery- don't doooo iiiiit

Working on my empath, still...

"Hm. You could go with the dance of papers. A little twist of words" connor suggested, "practice does make perfect. When I first flew with the suit, I crashed I reckon about 100 times. I think it would take you co siderable less time"


Kijani chuckled. "I'll think about it, yes. And I'm sure I'll fall at least 100 times before I get my moves perfect. Anyway... I've got to head to class, but I'll see you later, okay? Don't forget about our meeting. I'm eager to get started." She shouldered her bag and smiled. "Later, Connor!" She headed off to her Espionage class, feeling happier than she had in a while.
Caits said
Connor couldn't help it. He laughed,"oh, I shouldn't laugh. That was pretty awesome" he said, smiling going over to her, holding out at hand to help her up, "are you okay?"


Kijani took his hand and got up, brushing herself off. "I'm okay, nothing bruised but my pride." She was smiling a bit. "I'll get it eventually, and then, look out word, here comes the Paper Dance." She shrugged, making a little face. "The name's a work in progress."
Caits said
"Actully, i don't get it all the time. I tend to make myself go unnoticed" Kalinda said with a shrug. "Is it that obvious?" She asked, "yes" she shifted, so she could look him up and down, then shook her nead, "like slippingin when I arrived late. I watch. You're a player. You riled up that girl who seems to want to dance"***********Connor raised an eyebrow, but threw the ball towards kijani, "test what?" He asked curiously, his inqusitive nature overriding his geekiness. If that was even a word.


Kijani twisted out of the way of the incoming ball, doing a spin on one palm that send her legs swinging gracefully beneath her. She came to her feet in the same motion, flowing like water... before she lost her balance and crashed butt first to the floor. "Gah!" She'd gotten dizzy, she had to remember what Sue had taught her about spotting her head. "Almost."
Kijani twisted on one hand to pivot, watching the court. "Hey, Connor!" She grinned at the brunette, and would have waved if her hands weren't occupied. "Throw it! I want to test something!"
