Edit Reason: Forgot height and weight for tall people
)
NAME: Mindy Mercedes
AGE: 14
APPEARANCE: Shaggy brown hair, brown eyes, freckles across the nose. Wears a white t-shirt, blue jeans and sneakers. Picture will be below as per the standard.
GENDER/PRONOUNS: Female, she/her
HEIGHT/WEIGHT: A very lean, but toned-muscular 5'5 and 125 lbs.
PERSONALITY: Mindy is very much a product of her environment. Growing up in the mean streets of Brooklyn, NY, Mindy had to learn first hand how she needed to survive her childhood. Aggressive, cynical and short-tempered, Mindy has the look of someone you don't want to pick a fight with. You start something with her, she'll damn well finish it. While a bit rude-talking at times, Mindy's not as heartless as her front suggests. She's loyal and protective of her friends and family, and cares very deeply for her loved ones. Though the aggressive Mindy and the sweet Mindy can be at odds with each other at times. To summarize, Mindy is a great friend to have... if you can put up with her abrasiveness.
STRENGTHS:
* Mindy is quite good at fighting. Which she has to be where she comes from. Trained by her uncle, a local boxer, Mindy can brawl with the best of them. And she's not above fighting dirty if she needs to (i.e. going for the eyes, the crotch or just even grabbing a chair and smashing it into someone's back). Anyone picks a fight with her, they will regret it as she will beat up the poor soul with ease.
* She's also street smart. Someone who can learn the environment and read people pretty well. Someone who's aware of the dangers she's going into and one who makes sure she keeps a watchful eye on people or wherever she goes.
* One of her favorite hobbies is baseball, which she played frequently with the neighborhood kids. While decent at batting, she really shows her talents as a pitcher. Said to be like a bullet with her throws, Mindy is also very feared about any poor batter that goes against her. How does this translate here? Well if you need something thrown and get a good distance, you can go to her.
WEAKNESSES
* While good-hearted at her core, Mindy still puts on the tough front, which makes her come across as abrasive to those that don't really know her. As such, she's not exactly the most approachable person and may be very off-putting to those who are around her. As such, she might have a hard time finding people to help her out.
* She's also short-tempered. One little thing that goes wrong is enough to set her off. And combined with her aggressiveness, it doesn't really make for a good mix.
* And her hot temper can take on a literal meaning with her pyrokinetic abilities. While she has a vague idea on how to control them, she still has a lot to master when it comes to those. And if she gets mad enough, she might accidentally start a few fires. Something that has landed her in trouble in the past.
ABILITIES:
* Mindy has pyrokinetic abilities, being able to create fire from her hands. This power resulted in a freak accident she suffered from a few years ago. While she has a vague idea on how to create the fire and use it to her advantage, she doesn't have full mastery of it as there's still so much she needs to learn. And as a result, it could result in accidental fires. While she is willing to use the abilities for recreational purposes and while she's not above threatening to burn people, she won't do so. She won't use her fire to fight someone unless she ends up in a life-threatening situation.
* Again, as mentioned before, she's a fighter trained by her boxer uncle and can brawl with the best of them. Fight with her and you'll be lucky if you just walk away with a bloody nose.
* And also as established, her superior baseball pitching skills can come in handy if she needs to throw something hard and get some good distance on it as well.
OTHER
* Mindy is my OC who originated in the TV Tropes RP Acting Supernatural. Her backstory is she's from Brooklyn, where she grew up in very rough environments. A freak accident left her with pyrokinetic abilities. And after a couple incidents which got her in trouble (all of the burny variety), she ended up moving to Little Haven, MA, where she attends a special high school named Oddity High, which consists of students with supernatural oddities. The school is poorly-ran though. But her new life has left her at odds with her old New York mentality vs. the more relatively peaceful Little Haven. And for the record, the RP itself takes place in 2018 because the GM wanted to have it take place in life pre-COVID days. Since this presumably takes place in 2023, we'll call it timeline shenanigans. Shh, don't question me! I'm making it so. I'm her RPer here.
* She also speaks in this bold color, and with a heavy New York accent, so you can get a sense of what she's talkin' about here.
