Brief History: Upon hearing her name, it comes to no surprise to most people that Opal's parents are nature freaks. To be more precise, they consider themselves to be neo-druids. With her father being a fantasy author and her mother being an environmental conservationist professor, reading and writing came relatively easy to the young girl. She would write worlds and tales that often ended up in her father's books. Her little family of three was happy together for quite some time. However, her mother's work often drew in some big money spenders who cared more for profit than they did for the environment. Because of the possible risks, Opal's parents placed her in Ekrima classes which originally starts with learning how to battle with short sticks. She has mastered it throughout the years, now able to use actual blades given to her by her sensei. In high school, she does get teased by her friends for being a bit of a hippie, but it's nothing on the extreme levels. She's relatively popular in her own little introverted circle, and other kids know her to be nice. Being valedictorian, she hopes to go into cinematography so she can produce documentaries and research about the environment.

Description: Despite seeming to be a frail child, Opal's years of experience in Eskrima has given her already agile reflexes and a strong balance. Her arms have small cuts and bruises from practicing with her blades and the bow and arrow, but she can easily cover them up with a cardigan. She often enjoys wearing flowey clothes, so it's hard to often determine how her physical set is unless she is in her martial arts uniform.
Other: Nothing freaks her out more than lightning. In addition, she has a miserable allergy to felines, but she has a pet guinea pig she wouldn't trade for the world called Tim.
