` run JINX, run
"Liar."
[/center]` are you with me,
YOUR AGE . 12
RP EXPERIENCE . Off and on for around 3 years
CONTACT INFO . once I get an account, PM me
HOW DID YOU FIND US . I googled nephrilim[/size][/ul]
` there's no turning back,
NICKNAMES . Jinx, but no one's called her that for a long while. People call her Jenn, nowadays.
AGE & DATE OF BIRTH . She's 14. She doesn't know her birthday, but she was found at Hunter's City Orphanage on Halloween when she was about a year old.
OCCUPATION . none[/size][/ul]
` i'll be waiting,
She won’t have any makeup. Maybe she was scarred for life watching the orphanage's 'big girls' use finger paint for eyeshadow. It looked scary and the two girls got a rash. But honestly, she thinks she’s pretty enough.
PERSONAL STYLE . Ever since she was adopted, she's gotten obsessed with first impressions. She'll be extremely clean, so much that she might smell a bit like soap. Jenn'll look... nice. In a preppy way. Though if you call her preppy, she will resist the urge to punch you in the face.[/size][/ul]
` lace up your shoes,
DISLIKES . people that act dumb to be funny, people that act like someone they're not (including herself), smoke, car exhaust, and other pollution, hair in her face, dark chocolate (too rich), being hungry
STRENGTHS . Jenn's strong. She was probably the toughest kid at the orphanage. She has a high pain tolerance. Unless you stab her, she won't care. And she doesn't cry. She never cries. Until the temperature hits the negatives, she won't get cold. Jenn won't let herself get in her way.
WEAKNESSES . An awful smell can make her sick. She's just a little bit claustrophobic, but she won't let that stop her. She'd just prefer a place with windows, preferably open ones. And she avoids slimy things at all costs. Jenn has a bit of an ego, and doesn't like asking for help. She doesn't want to need it.
GOALS . Right now, Jenn just wants to fit into school, get good grades, go to college someday, and get a good job.
FEARS . She doesn't want to live on the streets begging for money. She's doing absolutely everything she can to avoid that.
SECRETS . Well, Jinx is a bit of a secret. She isn't telling anyone about her. (keep reading, it will make sense)
FAIRY PAST . She's an air fairy, with no familiar yet.
OVERALL PERSONALITY . Jenn acts preppy and nice to people. She does her homework, and actually studies things in school until she understands them. Jenn acts like your typical perfect teacher's pet, exactly the type of person she doesn't like. The only reason she acts that way is so that she can have a nice future someday.
But on the inside, she wants to punch you. And if she so desired, this teacher's pet could beat you up. But then she'd get suspended, and that wouldn't look good on her permanent record. Unfortunately. On the inside, she's a trickster, and a fun person to be around. She's a tough girl, but she wants a reputation as a nice person who follows the rules. Who knows, maybe some of the kids from school might want to hire her someday.
She really wishes that she didn't have to care. She wishes that she could beat up the jerks and the bullies. She wishes that she could run away and ditch her preppy self. But eventually, she's figured out, if she ran away, she'd get hungry. And then she'd get starving. And then she'd be begging for money on the street and watch people looking at her, pitying. And she doesn't need any pity.[/ul]
` don't tell a soul goodbye,
CURRENT LOCATION . She was adopted by a nice couple who have high expectations, which Jenn figures she can meet.
FATHER . Robert Hughes
MOTHER . Maria Hughes
SIBLINGS . none
PETS . none
OTHER FAMILY . None. Jenn's never had any hopes of her "real parents" coming back. She really doesn't care.
HISTORY . The doorbell rang, so Lorelei Yang went to get it. A baby at the door was no unusual sight, working at Hunter's City Orphanage, but none of her fifty-six years prepared her for this- this child with wings!? She ran, wide-eyed, to go get her younger cousin, also working there that day. The two sprinted to the door to see this angel-child Ms. Yang thought she saw. Her cousin yanked the door open, expecting the worst... it was just a baby. Just one little girl with a blue bandana to keep away the cold. No doubt, Jenn has overheard someone telling this story.
Soon, the younger Ms. Yang wondered exactly why she ever thought this crazy girl was an angel child. Jinx, nicknamed for her Halloween birthday and mischievous personality, would steal her cake and give it out to the other kids (saving the biggest piece for herself, of course.) If, one day, the chairs were all upside-down or the cafeteria staff all thought they had off, you'd know exactly who to blame.
But growing up in Hunter's City, she's seen the poor, the homeless, the hungry, sitting there, begging for coins. Just dependent on people's pity. What a horrible way to live. She vowed that she wouldn't end up like that. Though her friends laughed and said that she thought about things too much, seeing these people really changed her.
So when she heard a couple was coming, looking to adopt, she went a bit crazy. Tamed her wild hair, washed her nicer clothes, tucked her shirt in. Smiled at the couple, and tried to speak with a little english accent, to make her sound important. The couple asked her what she liked, and she said babysitting, reading, and school. Good, responsible, future-adopted kid things to say. So when crazy Jinx Bandhnu left, holding the nice couples' hands, everyone was shocked.
Especially her.[/size][/ul]
` here's the countdown,
PASSWORD . WINGS
RP SAMPLE . Jenn never knew what to be for Halloween. Her parents asked her to look through the magazines that came through, see if she liked something. Her mom even offered to make something. Every year, she let the decision slide, blaming homework or Mr. Davis.
And she couldn't put off any longer. When it's an hour before Grove's carnival starts, you can't start procrastinating. You have to start tearing through your closet.
Tossing dresses to the floor, she saw a box. She opened it, hoping for a costume. It was her old bandana.
The desperation to find a costume muffled the memories sewn into the bandana. But the questions pounded her like rocks. Was it really her bandana anymore? Wasn't it Jinx's? Not some strange Jennica person?
She threw the rocks back. Jenn knew exactly what she'd be for Halloween this year.
Jinx. [/size][/ul]
