( P O W E R )[/COLOR] Lucia's power is that of Empathy. Basically she can feel others emotions like they are her own, and, to some extent manipulate them. For example, if someone was nervous, she could use her empathy to calm them down. The limitations on her powers are that she can't make someone feel something - she can only increase or lesson whatever they are feeling. She rarely ever uses her power on purpose, though, because of the huge side-affects. She normally gets huge head-aches from being swamped by others emotions, since she doesn't really know how to block others emotions out. Also, when strong emotions are around her, they can overwhelm her and she can end up collapsing. It's happened. Also "big" emotions - such as fury or anguish - has sent her to the hospital.

Lucia doesn't like touching other people, either, mostly because the empathy is amplified by physical touch. Lucia isn't very good at blocking others emotions out, so she often has a constant head-ache. Despite that, she uses her empathy to comfort other people, though rarely without their permission.

( H A I R )[/COLOR] Lucia has hair that would be described as “golden” by poets. It irritates her to no extent, but she has the classic look you see on the TV. Her hair really is golden, threaded through with copper and red, and is really quiet beautiful. It's long and wavy, falling down her back in waves, and doesn't quite reach her butt. She's simply too lazy to actually cut it, so she normally wears it in a ponytail or braid. Her bangs are off to one side, normally held back by bobby pins or clippies.
( E Y E CO L O R )[/COLOR] Again, the classy look, though she is grateful that at least her eyes aren't totally usual. They're a dark blue, almost black in some lights, and have flecks of gold and brown in them. The interesting thing about them is that around the iris is a ring of dark green, making her eyes technically two colours, not one.
( H E I G H T )[/COLOR] 5'1''
( W E I G H T )[/B][/COLOR] 108lbs
( T A T T O O S )[/COLOR] She has the Chinese kanji for dragon on her upper left shoulder.
( P I E R C I N G S )[/COLOR] Just a single piercing in each ear.
( C L O T H I N G S T Y L E )[/COLOR] Lucia prefers non-flashy and comfortable clothing. She has no problem shopping at Wal-Mart and such. She likes warm colours, like reds and yellows, though occasionally wears black.

She plays the flute, but not professionally. She also collects unicorn figurines. She also knits.

Lucia fears being alone and the dark.
( S E C R E T S )[/COLOR]
She's never been kissed before. And she's never had sex.
( O V E R A L L )[/COLOR] Lucia is genuinely a gentle person. Unless you anger her – which is nearly impossible to do – you'll rarely see her dark side. Lucia is very laid-back and calm, and has this serene air about her. She's not known to raise her voice unless in battle, and rarely ever gets excited about small stuff. Whether it's just plain laziness or just the innate calmness, no one knows. But it works. She's very down-to-earth and honest, almost brutally honest. But she never means to hurt anyone – actually, she hates hurting others.

Unfailingly polite to everyone, even enemies, Lucia is a very respectful sort of girl. Oh, she might be tart and sarcastic (she has quite the tongue on her), but she manages to do it in a way that's almost respectful. Also, she knows when to speak up and when to hold her tongue. She was raised with the whole “speak when spoken to era” sort of feel and though opinionated, she tends to keep her opinions to herself. Lucia has especially perfected the “hide in plain sight” mentality. Though a chatterbox, Lucia knows when to keep her mouth shut – after all, you get a lot more information when you're quiet than when you're making yourself the centre of attention.

Lucia is almost obnoxiously friendly and cheerful to just about everyone. She's the type that greets everyone with a smile, even those she really doesn't like. She has an almost annoyingly optimistic outlook on life, greeting everything head-on. That's where her stubbornness comes in. Lucia has a stubborn streak a mile wide. Even if she is proven wrong, she will not change her path. She has been known as “mule-headed”, and once she has decided to do something, the Gods help everyone, because she WILL do it. Even if it means running people over to do so. She has a sense of justice that no one but her really knows, and she will stick to that like glue. She doesn't disobey orders exactly, but if she thinks there is something wrong with the way her teachers are going about something, you bet your bottom that she is going to do it HER way.

But things aren't always rainbows and sunshine with this girl, and she does have a darker side. It is nearly impossible for her to hate anyone, or to get angry, really, but once you do, woe on you. Slow to anger and slow to forgive, Lucia has been known to hold grudges. Her temper, when aroused, is fierce and can be quiet violent, a change from her normal calm and gentle personality. She has been known to lash out physically, even though she hates hurting others. She has tried to control her temper, but will be the first one to admit that she doesn't have the best control over it. It's just wise not to anger her.

There is also the little matter of her arrogance. While she really doesn't have that big of an ego, there certainly is one. What she knows, she knows. She doesn't see it really as having an ego, just knowing stuff. And Lucia assumes that everyone wants to know everything... which, believe me, can get really annoying. But she honestly doesn't understand that.... Her twin has to remind her all the time that no one likes a smart ass.

LEANING NOW INTO THE BREEZE, REMEMBERING SUNDAY HE FALLS TO HIS KNEES.

( O V E R A L L )[/B][/COLOR] Lucia Marie Newman and Rosalind Nicole Newman were born one stormy December night to two wealthy people. Taylor Newman had established himself very young as a ambitious businessman, and quickly became the CEO of his bank, while her mother was a very famous German designer. Meaning? The twins grew up pampered princesses, though through nannies. Though they loved their children, Taylor and Amanda were often too busy to really care for the girls.

Lucia and Rosie grew up as different as could be. Rosie was highly strung and slightly cynical, challenging everything and anything. Lucia was a very open person, preferring to look at the bright side of things. They were inseparable despite this differences, and very close. They very rarely said “I”, and they always referred to each other as “Twin”. There was only one thing separating the twins, and that was Lucia's empathy.

From the time she was six, she was constantly tortured by others emotions. She couldn't stop it, and she couldn't control it. It got to the point that she couldn't go outside without feeling overwhelmed by everyone elses' emotions. There were several times when the emotions were too strong for her to handle and she'd end up passing out. It was often very painful for the little girl, and she became slightly withdrawn. Her parents didn't know what to do with their daughter – they didn't believe in magic, but there was no way she was lying.

The only one who understood her was Rosie. Maybe it was because of the twin bond the girls shared, but Rosie's emotions never hurt Lucia. They, in fact, soothed her, making it easier for her to be around. The two were inseparable, and she adored Rosie So it was no wonder that Lucia was devastated when, at age thirteen, Rosie just disappeared. It was like she had never existed.

Taylor and Amanda believed that Rosalind had run away, though Lucia didn't buy that, and still doesn't believe that. She knew that Rosie wasn't dead, she'd feel it. And it wasn't like Rosie to just up and leave - Lucia believes that she had been kidnapped. After all, the twins were, and Lucia still is, heiresses, though she tends not to make a big deal out of it. But Lucia has never stopped looking for her sister. When Lucia was fourteen, her parents finally enrolled her in school, hoping to yank her out of her depression. Lucia had been home schooled all her life, and her parents hoped a change of scenery would do her good. They heard of a school where special people went, heard rumors of those with special abilities had a place to go. Powers Academy was shrouded in mystery and the Newmans were quite surprise when Lucia was actually accepted.

Lucia hated school at first, and didn't talk to anyone for the first six months. It was when one of her classmates introduced her to the guitar did she actually start to open up. All her life she had loved music, learning the flute and harp, but she honestly fell in love with the guitar. She's been living there ever since, trying to control her powers.

( S A M P L E P O S T )[/B][/COLOR] Sometimes she felt like the weight of the world was on her shoulders.

It had been a long time since she had taken a trip down memory lane. Most of the time, she did her best to avoid thinking about her past. While she knew that she didn’t have as bad as a past as some people, some scars never healed. She didn’t mean the ones on her body, though every time she looked in the mirror she saw reminders of her past. Selene didn’t put much stock in dwelling on the past, but she knew that she had issues because of it. Just because she diagnosed other people’s problems didn’t mean she was ignorant to her own problems.

But today, memories tugged at her, drawing her back to a time of strife – World War II. Selene had seen both good and bad in the world, and she hated to admit that she had experienced more bad than good. It was probably why she took time in every day to find something beautiful, to make up what she had missed. Though she was notorious for hating fighting – she was definitely the peace-maker, the diplomat, at this school – she found it ironic that she had spent many years fighting. It was mostly her protective instincts that kicked into gear when war came around.

Selene didn’t have a family. Sure, she had married before, and even had a child. But they had all died, leaving her alone. It was probably why she was so protective of everyone at the school. She knew that Temple probably didn’t enjoy her fretting over him all the time, and that Evelyn was a big girl and could handle herself, she just couldn’t help it. Selene was far older than the both of them, and had seen too many things happen to those she cared about to stop worrying. But that still didn’t explain the random trip down memory lane, she sighed.

During World War II, she had been living in Germany as an Allied spy. It was easy for her to blend in, with her glamour and all, and no one would ever believe a woman would be capable of understanding war tactics. But Selene understood both war and the German language, and easily cracked their code, becoming a valuable asset to the Allied powers. She had let herself be captured by the Nazis so she could work from the inside. It hadn’t been pretty – the scars on her legs and arms from their torture still lingered to this day. But her information had helped bring victory sooner, and protected those she cared about. After Pearl Harbour, America had been in a stage of panic, and she didn’t want to lose anyone else.

“So maybe I am a bit overprotective.” She spoke out loud, chuckling quietly. The pretty Fae stopped ran a hand through her midnight hair, looking down at her reflection in the water. The fountain was a frequent place for her to visit – she had always loved the marble fountain, and the flowing water. It was soothing. She trailed the very tips of her fingers in the water as she shook her head. “But I can’t help who I am, now can I?” she looked up at the fading stars. It was just past dawn, and streaks of red, orange, gold and blue were touching the sky. “Anymore than I can move the sun…” she murmured.
