IRC Nickname: Vessa
Name: Zevri O`Shay
Alias:
Age: 18
Date of Birth: June 21st, 1993
Hometown: Liard Hotsprings community, B.C, Canada.
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 125 lbs

Personality Profile: Zevri is pretty easy going, with a general smile on her lips. She tries her hardest, despite any odds, and isn't prone to fits of anger. She is, however, prone to bouts of depression due to her powers, but she does her best not to let it cripple her, or annoy others if possible.
Physical Description:
Zevri stands tall and proud at 5'6", with light muscle definition from years of being active in the outdoors. Her skin is lightly tanned, making her stark white hair, dark long lashes, and sky blue eyes stand out even more so then if she wasn't tanned. Her hair, when fully down, reaches to just brush the ground. She tends to wear loose clothing, designs and styles that she makes herself, or styles and designs that are not of the norm and hard to get.

Mutation/Powers: Memory Recall
Primary : Memory Recall
Zevri can recall any memory from any person (that doesn't have a mind blocking power or similar ability), even if that person has forgotten themselves. To her, the mind can't lie, nor can it truly forget. She must concentrate on what memory she wishes to retrieve, and then relives it, as if she was there. This can also cause the person to relive the memory (if they are conscious). It happens in a split second, but no detail is lost. Whatever the person experienced in the memory, she experiences; pain, anger, lust, colors, sounds, tastes, etc etc.
This power requires her to be touching the person skin or other organic part (hair, for example). Touching their head may enable quicker and less concentration to activate and use the power. Zevri can recall any memory she has obtained, including her own, in perfect detail as if she was retrieving a memory from someone else. Same rules apply as with her main power (feeling it all, etc etc).
Secondary : Memory Return
Zevri can give memories to other people, in the same detail as she retrieved it (or if her own, how she experienced it). How this works is almost the same way as she takes memories; she activates her power, showing them the chosen memory, and they experience it much like she does when she retrieves memories. Whether or not they retain the memory afterwards depends on the person, as her memory retention is linked with her powers. (She will also experience the memory, as if she was picking up a memory.) This power requires her to be touching the person skin or other organic part (hair, for example). Touching their head may enable quicker and less concentration to activate and use the power.
Tertiary : Mind Shield
Zevri can shield her mind against all outside forces at will. Also in turn, with physical contact she can extend this shield around others minds. The limit to this portion of the shield is that the more people in contact with the link, the weaker it becomes.
This is a power that would be built upon in game and is not currently completely in effect.
Note on all powers: She cannot create false memories. It has to be either a real memory of hers, or whatever memories she has pulled from other people.
Drawbacks/Weaknesses/Side Effects : As one could figure out, recalling memories isn't always a pleasant experience. Good memories can be okay, but bad memories, painful memories, unwanted memories can be emotionally draining, and at times, physically draining. Due to not having any formal training with these powers, she is more often then not left disoriented briefly afterward using a power, and then must work to weed out others memories from her own. Recalling memories has much of the same effect, as does Memory Return. Memories can lead to nightmares, temporary phobias, disbeliefs, temporary MPD (or more so, forgets who exactly she is). Using this power on animals (as it can be used on any creature with a brain), can cause disorientation to last longer, possibly leaving her unable to function normally for a time.
How do you believe this character's powers will further develop in the future?
The power could develop in many ways, such as protecting the person from reliving the memory, protecting herself from 'senses' associated with the memory (so just visual, nothing else), being able to function normally right after power use, and possible expansion into other aspects of memory related powers. As well, she may be able to get to a point where she just needs to be touching the person, even if it's through clothing.
Background:
Zevri grew up in the backlands of the Liard Hotsprings community in British Columbia. Her father was a police officer, and her mother was a flight attendant, and not home very often. She led a relatively normal life, growing up in the outdoors, traveling around B.C and Alberta, the Yukon, Northwest Territory, and Alaska. The only downside of her life was her father, or rather, her fathers work. He was a detective, and as such, had to deal with the harsh realties of Native Reserves and tourists who decide to walk outside the lines of the law. When Zevri politely informed her father that Max the stray dog showed her where a man was sleeping, her father laughed it off as childhood imagination. When a body was discovered not a few days later in the exact spot and position that Zevri had described, her father took a keener look into the life of his daughter. He soon caught on that Zevri had a knack of 'speaking' with animals, or telling him what people had seen. It also seemed to disturb his daughter, and he often found her wandering aimlessly, claiming that she was someone else, or bragging about something she was obviously too young to know, or do. During rough cases, he would bring her into the office, claiming he was 'babysitting till mom got home', but in reality he was using her to find out information from those brought in as suspects, or victims.
Eventually he stopped, seeing how disturbed his child was becoming. She was failing school, swinging between being a bully and being the nicest person to walk the face of the planet. She would be up crying at night, and not know why, and her mother had put her in several therapy groups any time she was home long enough to do so. From the age of 13 onward, Zevri was home schooled, and was kept out of public groups and teams. She had free reign of the forested area behind her home, and soon she became the loving person she is today. Unfortunately for her parents, she figured out the truth behind her abilities, and tried hard not to use it. She started looking for a place she could get away to, a place with others like her, or at least with powers. She caught wind of Cobalt Academy, and applied, and hopefully is on her way there now...
Quirks, Extras, Random Character Facts:
Zevri's natural hair color is white, and has been since she was about 5. Before that it was a near white light blonde. She also designs and sews her own clothing whenever possible. Due to her fathers job, and partially due to Zevri's power, her father taught her defensive combat moves, as well as how to use a handgun and a hunting knife. She is average with a hunting bow
Edit Note: expanded on the tetiary power. added last bit to primary power. Added last bit to power development.
Edit Note: added link to quick sketch of Zevri.
