AVERY HOLLISTER
 Name: Avery Emmerson Hollister
Nickname: Ave
Age: 22
Birthday: October 23rd
Sign: Libra, cusp of Scorpio.
Gemstone: Diamond
Blood Type: A+
Fav. Food: Avery believes in indulging the palate, as well as adventurous choices in dining. She loves a proper pairing of wine with a meal, and prefers small servings full of flavor rather than a large, mediocre plate.
Hated Food: While she believes that anything can be prepared in a way that's enjoyable, Avery does dislike subpar ingredients, anything less than fresh, fast food, meals consisting of mostly meat, bland food, etc.
School: Graduate from DCU; Double Major in Economics and Marketing
Hobbies:
Yoga - Being in tune with the body helps one be in tune with the mind. Avery appreciates the connection with herself that she experiences via yoga and meditation and the strength and flexibility of her own body. At this point, she is quite skilled, and it is her habit to do a morning routine after working out, and another to relax herself before bed.
Working - Avery actively enjoys work. A value instilled by her family, reinforced by her own nature, and a part of the fact that she hates idle time. This girl likes to keep busy, and while she doesn't have to have a conventional job, she does keep a part time gig at The Spot [also the discounts are amazing]. She is constantly working on some side project or another, and loves to have her fingers in her friends and acquaintances pies.
Music - Formerly more of a career than a hobby, Avery has taken vacated her role in the all female UK group Brass to study in the US and move on from her teenage success. Now that she's graduated, she lends her knowledge to the studio her family owns in downtown Destiny City, assisting in signing and promoting new artists and singing hooks. Rumor has it that she has been solely working on a solo album, which is nearing completion.
Dating - Avery loves going out on dates. People often put way more energy into such things than they do in regular hang outs. She likes to dress up, she likes seeing others dressed up, she loves good food and adventures and dancing. She tends to get asked out quite often, and rarely says no [provided the asker wasn't a total pig], because she wants to see what's going to happen. It's interesting. This gal will go so far as to date people she's not romantically or sexually interested in, just because it's a good time. She doesn't owe them anything, and half the time, they'll show her something in Destiny City [a place she's just getting to know] that she's never seen before.
Sporting & Lessons - She loves to learn, and loves to train. Because she has the money, and the upbringing, Avery is always attending some sort of lesson, usually for a type of sport or dancing. Classic Dancing [Salsa, Ballroom, etc], and Modern HipHop/Street, Cooking, Tennis & Volleyball lessons, Dressage, and Shooting were all in frequent rotation as a child, and she continues working with trainers and by herself today. She tends to favor sports which are highly competitive, but require minimal teamwork/reliance on others. She still attends a few lessons in addition to her classes each week and loves finding new things. This girl's always got her eye on the Community Calendar to see what's happening, and will try just about anything.
Virtues:.
Go-Getter - While Avery's been given a lot in life [thanks, Daddy!], she doesn't wait for anything to come to her. She's confident in her ideas, seeks out a way to implement what she wants, and then goes about doing it. Organized, ambitious, and dedicated, this girl wastes no time. She doesn't shy away from work, and grabs opportunities when they present themselves to her.
In a social sense, this means that she's an active participant. Is the group hungry? Avery's already scouring Yelp for what's good in the neighborhood. That show you just mentioned? She's texting her friend that knows the bouncer. Did you present a great idea for your group project? Ave is on board and has already begun expounding upon your idea.
Social Butterfly - “Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but here’s my number, so call me, maybe?” (Did you mean ‘text me, maybe’?) Avery was hearing that line long before the summer of 2012. Avery happens to be that girl you want to meet at the party. The one tossing her head back to laugh, or touching the arm of someone giving her a goonish smile. While Avery is naturally charismatic, her ability to work a crowd [or an individual] is a learned skill. She's often been mistaken for the host of large parties. She actively enjoys meeting new people , and creating good impressions. She likes the attention, and she’s good at returning it.
Earnest - When she gives her word, she follows through. While she may be hesitant to trust her heart with other people, Avery puts all of herself into everything she does. If she is going to do something, she's going to do it the very best she can, whether it's work or a hobby, and Avery is eager to try and do everything.
The zest she puts into even the most mundane activities can make her a very bold and compelling personality, and is often what catches the attention of others. The school assignment might have included instruction to bring a visual aid, and this girl has shown up with a power point, hand outs, and a poster board. An invitation to brunch at her place becomes an exciting culinary adventure. She goes all in in almost anything she does - One of the reasons that she's so very scared of exposing her vulnerabilities... When she falls for another, it often becomes something completely overwhelming for her.
Flaws:
Fear of Intimacy: Avery sees herself as an asset because of the things she can do for others. She has a hard time seeing herself as of value, purely for her innate qualities, due to misguided attempts by her mother to ‘prepare her for the real world,’ a world which only wants her for her beauty, her bank account, and her connections. Avery does not have a hard time believing that people like her, she just has a hard time believing they’d continue to do so if she lost everything that she’s been told makes her special.
Because of this, she has little experience, and is uncomfortable, with intimacy or vulnerability, and when put in a situation that makes her feel emotional, will often retreat or deflect rather than give up control and 'weaken' herself in front of another. Due to her lack of confidence in her own lovability, she is initially skeptical of those that claim to care for her, followed by insecurity in her ability to keep their affection, which results in Avery becoming incredibly magnanimous toward those that have broken through her walls, to the point of easily being taken advantage of.
This makes her keep most her relationships at a friendly acquaintance or ‘dating’ level, and has resulted in her being a secretly lonely young woman.
Cutthroat: As a rule, Avery doesn't care about you or your peasant problems, though it might seem an awful lot like it. She's very good at being polite, witty, remembering details, and so on, but her scope of interest doesn't go far beyond herself and her loved ones, an attitude which she believes everyone has, themselves, and has seen evidenced in the upper-class social circles back home. She pursues connections that benefit herself and if you cross the line from "possibly useful" to "nuisance" she will not hesitate to let you know.
This girl can turn from sweet to startlingly terrifying in less time than it takes to flip a light switch, and typically does so in such a way as to leave her victim both shocked and in complete understanding of the nature of their relationship. From alienating a friend of a friend (that tells a tasteless joke at a party, and calmly, pointedly demanding that they leave the social function) to dropping a business partner (that's a friend of her father's, because they made too large a faux pas for her to ignore), when Avery makes the choice to get rid of someone, she doesn't hesitate. Sometimes, she can decide to 'forgive' them, but this is mostly a tactic, and is simply another way to keep control over her interactions with others.
Impatient: She likes things settled and organized, and will schedule her work hours and social engagements well ahead of time, if at all possible, and can be reliably counted upon to be where she says she will be, when she says she will be. Avery expects others to be mindful of her time, in return, and has a low level of patience for tardiness or sloppy demeanor.
She has very specific needs and wants to feel comfortable, including tidiness and carefully organized spaces. She needs to feel 'respected', to have things just-so, and once they are, she is the wild, fun-loving, flirtatious girl most perceive her to be. Without these conditions met, the curly-haired young woman can become sullen, moody, and highly irritable. She knows the right way to do things, and if you're not handling it in a way she finds effective, she'll let you know. Repeatedly.
Unless she's actively enjoying a game of pursuit, Avery wants what she wants, and she wants it now, pleaseandthankyou.

CORRUPT SAILOR THYONE 
Senshi: Super Sailor Thyone, Corrupt Senshi of Hedonism
Challenge:
Attacks:
[Notes:
- Thyone's jewelry is made of weak gold, which includes the claw tip jewelry on her hands. It is purely decorative and if she happened to smack someone, it'd be like a normal ring was on her hand, not a slicing/blade attack.
- What behaviors the character engages in are entirely up to the player, as her attacks provide for interpretation of how a character behaves when intoxicated/frenzied]
Sailor Scout Attack: Maenad's Kiss!
Thyone blows a kiss toward her target, sending a shower of sparkling gold light/magic to envelop them with indulgent scents, flavors and, most importantly, pleasurable sensations. Much like being somewhat intoxicated at a really great party, this distracting attack hits her opponents with feel-good, often resulting in elevated moods, pleasure, and makes it hard to focus on aggression.
Kissing her target on the mouth boosts the effectiveness of this attack to super level for the first five seconds before fading back to regular strength.
Target: 1 per kiss
Duration: 15s
Uses: 3x per battle, unless otherwise established by ORP or Meta.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Maenad's Ecstasy!
Thyone blows a kiss toward her target, sending a shower of sparkling gold light/magic to envelop them with indulgent scents, flavors and, most importantly, pleasurable sensations. The increased effectiveness now makes opponents feel drunk with pleasure, resulting in uncoordinated movement, elevated moods, and distractibility.
Kissing her target on the mouth boosts the effectiveness of this attack to eternal level for the first ten seconds before fading back to regular strength.
Target: 1 per kiss
Duration: 30s
Uses: 3x per battle, unless otherwise established by ORP or Meta.
Eternal Sailor Attack: Maenad's Frenzy!
Thyone tilts her head back to howl the name of her attack into the sky and get a real party started. Like the maenad's of greek mythology, this AoE attack inspires an ecstatic frenzy - leaving the location in utter chaos by putting all inhabitants under her influence which consists of wild behavior, loss of senses and complete intoxication. At its extreme, this behavior often escalates into aggression, and allies are unable to recognize one another, resulting in attacks amongst friends, family, and lovers.
Does not effect Thyone, nor those that she takes by the hand to soothe their frenzy.
Target: AoE, travels in 15 foot radius around Thyone
Duration: Affects revelers for one minute.
Uses: 1x per battle, unless otherwise established by ORP or Meta.
Sailor Scout

Respected/Liked
Idris Kennedy - Formerly Eilian Haplan, and a fast friend. We share a background and feel comfortable with one another. Eili was there for me when I needed to cut loose, and I'm there for her. I'm her.... Dominant, when she needs to feel safe. She called me first when she was corrupted, and now lives with me until she's back on her feet.
Kess Reever - My boss, in so many senses. I work part time for Kess, when the mood strikes me, and we have an amicable relationship. I'm closer with her cousin and her girlfriend, but I respect the weight on her shoulders and the way she maintains her life regardless.
Lena Adler - Maybe my best friend? Definitely my fastest. Lena is like my twin - provided that she was poor, white, and had terrible taste. My favorite person to cause mischief with. It helps that we have no need for secrets, since we're both on the same side.
Liberty Reever - So bloody cute I can't even stand the sight of her. Libby is... Sweet, and strong, and honest, and... It feels incredibly stupid, how hot I think she is. Something about that cowboy just makes me want to put on dresses, and cook dinner, and... Well. That's enough of that, don't you think?
Sierra Ancieto - I adore this girl. Sierra plays the role of my 'assistant,' and she's great at it. The world better watch out for her when she gets older and decides to run it. I also think she's family, in another sense, but time will tell.
Uuni Kierstedt - Bad Habit. Uuni and I are like oil and vinegar. You'd think we wouldn't mix, but we taste delicious together, regardless. She's definitely my trashiest friend, but there's something rather charming about that, I think. Sometimes, when I'm feeling like a particularly horrid human being, Uuni is the only person I know won't judge me. After all, she's inevitably worse than I am.

Interested [Positive or Negative]
Haley Jones - Hilarious, if brief encounters. She's like a hippie version of Uuni. Vulgar, drug and alcohol fueled, and cute. Refreshingly hilarious to watch her interact at social events. Friends with Kess [no surprise there].
Paris LeFay - Met briefly after yoga. Dancer. Seems sweet.
Penelope Seneca - One of my main competitors for the Destiny City Council Seat. She seemed sweet, if a bit naive and overwhelmed, and beat me by only a handful of votes. I'm worried she won't be able to manage the job.
Marlin
Nate Darrow - Obnoxious and entitled, rather spoiled for a boy with no money. Still, an eager distraction from midday boredom.
Ricky Cunningham - Adorable and a bit thick. He was eager to help me, and I wouldn't mind seeing him again. There's something so wonderful about big muscles and small thoughts...
Tag Swagger - I think Mr. Swagger and I are going to have a delightful, mutually beneficial friendship. He's smart, attractive, and has influence. There's no doubt that we can help each other.
