Leah Sparks
Gender:
Leah's a girl.
Age:
Leah is fifteen years young.
Description:
Leah is a slender girl, less than 100 pounds in weight but made of muscle. She's about 5'2, olive skin with long wavy dark brown hair that falls to her upper back and almond shaped dark brown eyes.
God and mortal family:
Leah's godly father is Aeolus; the Greek ruler of the winds, and her mother, Audrey, is a CEO of a business in New York. Her mother is married to a man named Mason and they have no children together.
Powers**:
Leah has ways that she can manipulate the air to her advantage. First, she can create wind gusts of up to fifty miles an hour in order to rattle someone she's opposing or just do whatever. These wind gusts are relatively small and would only affect people within a 30 foot radius of where she stands. She gets most tired at 50 miles an hour and she can't keep the wind gust up for long, but the weaker the gust is the longer she can hold out. She can create these gusts 6 times a day, at least an hour apart.
Secondly, Leah can use wind to almost make herself fly. She can manipulate the wind so that it will sweep her off the feet and she can balance, bringing her up where she wishes to go. Depending on the type of weather it is either easier or harder for her to maintain her balance. For example, if it is windy she can easily catch hold of the wind for a period of time up to two hours before she gets tired; however if there is little wind or she is flying against the wind, it is very difficult for her and she can't stay aloft for very long at all. She doesn't have a limit to how many times she can do this per day, but she will get overly tired after 3 or so hours, usually before then and again depending on the conditions, and be forced to stop and rest.
Flaws:
Leah doesn't handle a lot of stress well. Her mother constantly pressured her to be the best she could be when she was in school, and the pressure caused her to suffer from anxiety attacks. Leah is also fully deaf in from an accident when she four, and this definitely changes her perspective on everything and can sometimes affect her negatively in a battle. Since she was so young when she became deaf, she's learned to read lips extremely well. She received a Cochlear implant; however it only really enabled her to hear vague sounds. Her voice doesn't indicate that she is deaf and it's almost hard to tell. Also, Leah is extremely stubborn, meaning that she tries to do everything her way.
Pets:
-none-
Weapon:
Leah doesn't really have a particular weapon that she fights with. She uses whatever she has available to her, whether it's a sword, dagger, spear or bow and arrow. She's decent with them all and doesn't generally prefer one over the other.
Talents/Skills:
Leah is very intelligent, seeing as her mother forced her to study for most of her life. She's pretty book smart. Also, she's very good at lip reading, seeing as she's been deaf for most of her life. She fights well, having done sports for agility and strength when she was young.
Biography*:
Leah was born to her mother, Audrey, as a complete surprise. Her mother had been married to Leah's stepfather, Mason, and she didn't even know she was pregnant with Aeolus' daughter. She compensated and told Mason that the child was his, and though she was happy to have a daughter from her mysterious lover she was admittedly a little annoyed about suddenly having a child to care for. Audrey is a woman of plan, and when things don't go her way she gets very annoyed about it. Audrey was forced to make do with the child, and she was raised as the mortal daughter of Mason Sparks.
Leah began developing her powers at a young age, starting when she was two. Her mother did her best with hiding it and soon trained the child to never utilize her abilities. In fear, Leah obeyed, but would sneak out as she got older to test what she was capable of. She loved the air, and her mother, try as she may, couldn't keep her away from it. When Leah turned four, she was tracked by a monster. It planted a bomb in her house, and while her parents were away and she was left with a baby sitter, it went off very close to her. Using her abilities with wind, she managed to scramble out of the way and manipulate the fire away from herself, but before she had gotten in a far distance from an explosion the change in pressure had deafened her. She didn't have too many problems with monsters thereafter, but her mother was constantly on edge after that and sent her off to boarding school.
In her school years, Leah was under constant pressure from her mother to do well. Being naturally smart, this was usually easy for Leah while she was away. She went to boarding school for a year and a half before returning to live in New York with her family. Her mother was constantly on top of her and she became paranoid, undergoing so much stress that she went through anxiety attacks. She hid them from her mother and managed to get help, helping herself without her mother's knowledge.
This worsened over a few years, and by the time she turned 15 she'd had enough. She tested herself genetically to find that she wasn't Mason's daughter, and outed herself to his face. She rebelled against her mother and ran away, doing research and finding camp in a fluke a few days later, confident and strong. | |
