Your Character:
Appearance:Eldora stands at about 5'6" and is always donned in black. Her clothing seems a little worn and small for her frame and she is almost always seen with her long black hair down. It is about the only thing on her that seems to be clean because she is able to shower almost every day in a group home (or a home she has broken into)
Picture:
Celeb: Cristina Scabbia
Name: Eldora Dawn
Codename:
Age: 19
Apparent Age: 19
Date of Birth: May 21st
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Powers:
Echolocation: This power works like sonar- from her projected voice she can predict how far something is (be a person, place or thing). Eldora is also able to use these echoes to locate, range, and identify the objects. This will eventually be able to help her maneuver in the dark as well.
Mimicry: This power is not yet available for her, but based on being able to identify sounds with her main power she will be able to mimic the sounds within a room or a 20 feet radius that she hears.
Affiliation: Exiles
Personality:
Eldora tends to be a loner and she is fine with that. Being kicked out of her parents home has made her jaded to the world and so shows off how much she dislikes the world by wearing lots of black clothing and dying her brown hair black.
Eldora doesn't have many friends; or any in reality. While she lives on the streets and in half way houses, she hasn't made a single friend. Eldora is quiet and observant of her surroundings and the people in her area, gets startled quickly and when her back is up against the wall she gets really pissed off. This will cause her to lash out vocally with some witty and sarcastic words or bring physical aggression to those who angered her.
Family:
Eldora has a mother, step father and birth father. Her parents divorced when she was around ten years old and has not seen her father since the divorce was finalized.
She has two brothers, but has not seen any members in her family for almost 2 years.
Both her brothers are younger than she; Vince is 14 and Charlie is 17.
History:
Eldora is the eldest child out of three. Being the oldest she had to look out for her younger brothers a lot because her parents were always working and traveling for their jobs. Her life was pretty uneventful until she was around the age of 17.
At 16 she had gotten into an after school fight with a girl over something so stupid that she doesn't even remember the details. Eldora was pushed into the ground from behind and when she stood up to face her attacker, she had the urge to move to the left. If she hadn't in time she would have been smacked hard in the face from a history book. Outraged the girl made for her next move again in which Eldora barely managed to move out of the way of. It was like she heard the book and the fist before they tried to connect with her body. Eldora took one more hit during the fight in the ear by the history book. After dodging a few more punches and kicks and getting a few more smacks in the girl called her a freak and ran off to tell everyone about the freak.
After the fight her parents took her to the emergency room to make sure that she was fine and demanded all sorts of tests on the girl. The CAT scan came back fine, blood work as well but when it came to her hearing test the doctor claimed she had hypersensitive hearing range. He thought it was because of possible damage to her ear during the fight and stated that it would go away within the week, but it never did.
From there on out, Eldora would just seem to know things before anyone would tell her. She would know if someone was at the door before they rang the bell. She would know if something was making an odd noise in the house and was broken. Her parents knew that something was wrong with Eldora and worrying about their jobs and their family kicked the girl out, telling her never to return again.
Strengths:
Street savvy-Living on the streets helps her know the area
Music-She is able to play the violin and piano (if she ever got a hold of one)
Blending-Living on the streets has taught Eldora how to blend into a crowd if need be.
Lock picking-Eldora knows how to pick simple locks because she has been forced to due to living in the streets.
Time Sense-Eldora has a relative idea of what time is without looking at a clock or watch. This is based off her living on the streets and knowing when the sun sets and rises, which helps her move to safe places when it starts to get dark.
Weaknesses:
Quick tempered
Cigarettes-she loves them as much as air and always has at least 3 packs on her
Lack of financial income-most of her clothing and items she has stolen or gotten from donations
Her power-She has no idea how to use it successfully since she just learned about it around 2 years ago.
Warrant-Eldora has a warrant out for her arrest from last year due to stealing goods in a home.

"What time does the new exhibit get unveiled?" Cassandra asked the driver in the front seat of the limo as she pushed the glass down between her and him. She pulled out the compact in her purse as she waited for him to answer her, a small sigh escaping her ruby red lips.
"In about twenty minutes." He answered as he pulled up to the carpet outside of the museum and put the car into park. Cassandra slid across the seat to make her way to the door that the driver was about to open for her. With one last look into the compact she closed it, shoved it in her purse and offered her hand once the door was pulled open. With a small smile Cassandra stepped out of the vehicle and smiled for the camera photographers and the reporters behind the barrier. It was a usual weekend sight for her; some function invited her for some sort of donation to their cause and Cassandra more than willingly donated. It all depended on the cause of course.
Cassandra posed for a few pictures before she made her way inside the museum and was greeted with a server the minute she stepped inside. She waved away the glass of champagne that was complimentary and shook the hand of the curator as she made her way over to Cassandra.
"How wonderful of you to make it. We'll be unveiling the contemporary piece in about ten minutes. I saved you a seat at the front and then feel free to wander after the showing. All the guests are free to do the same." The bustling brunette smiled to her, posed for a quick photo opp with Cassandra and went off to her next greeting.
Cassandra's brown eyes wavered over the heads of those within the museum to see if anyone she recognized was inside. She would be surprised to see anyone here who wasn't a socialite in the eyes of the public. After another drink offer from a different server, Cassandra took the thing and headed off to her seat at the front of the small stage.
Once she sat she tilted the glass to look at the liquor inside of the flute and then brought it to her nose. A light smell of peach hit her nostrils and a small frown fell upon her lips. Another server made his rounds to collect empty glasses or to refill them and Cassandra gave her full glass back to the server. He looked at her and she at him as she tilted her head to the right to get a good look at him and the expression upon his face. A slight look of confusion danced upon it, but he just shrugged and took off to the next guest.
"Ladies and gentlemen, tonight I am honored to produce to you such a masterpiece." Cassandra's eyes flicked over to the speaker, the same brunette woman she had met on numerous occasions. Her voice high pitched and nervous, Cassandra's eyes continued on their path to linger over those she had seen at other upscale venues. She stopped once she hit the back of the crowd as a figure in black moved out of the room and into the main gallery area. Cassandra's genuine smile was replaced with a fake frozen one as she tried to figure out who it was that darted away so quickly.
A few more seconds passed and her eyes continued on their search of familiar faces before they returned to the speaker who was now looking at her (the lady who was turning in every direction) with keen interest. Cassandra flashed her a quick smile and nodded her head as the lady finished her speech and unveiled the piece of art. Cassandra listened to the 'oh's' and 'ah's' with the same smile upon her face and as soon as she could she stood up and made her way out into the main gallery in search of the quick footed figure.
