She is quiet and distant. It takes her while to warm up to new people so she tends to be very shy when first meeting someone. At times she comes off as innocent, childish and naive. Over all she is a kind and caring person, but she has a temper and is brave when she needs to be.

Weapons - She carries a small dagger with her at all times, which is usually hidden in her boot or strapped to her thigh. She also usually carries a staff.

Physical Skills - She has a little above average strength from dancing and being on drill team, but she isn't really the athletic type.

Magic Skills - Since she was young she could sense, see/hear and communicate with spirits. At first she hated this ability, but over time she have gotten use to it and don't dislike it as much.

Something else she's able to do is transfer and manipulate energy in the form of heat and fire.

She's also able to ease other people's pain and heal them, but not herself

Limitations - She can't always see/hear or communicate with spirits; sometimes she can only sense them. Maybe it's because the spirit doesn't want her to see them or to communicate with her. She's not sure.

As for the transfer and manipulation of energy she sometimes does it involuntarily, but that is usually only when she's scared or really stressed.

Her curse would have to be her ability to ease other people’s pain and heal them. She has never been able to fully control this ability when it comes to the people that she's close to and has a special connection with. The way she can heal and take away their pain whether she does it on purpose or involuntarily is by taking their pain herself or taking their injuries herself. Sometimes she will find bruises and cuts on her where someone that she has a special connection with got hurt. There have been times that she has passed out because she couldn’t control how much pain she took away from a person that was in really bad shape. She hates this ability and sometimes she wishes she had never inherited it from her mother.

She doesn't remember much about her life before she woke up on the island. She does remember that she lived with her parents and grandparents. Also that other people didn't like her and that some people called her evil. Other than that she remembers that she inherited her healing ability from her mother.
