Name: Angela Baker
Color: Dark Blue - #00008B
Age: Fourteen
Nationality: Caucasian
Home/Financial Status: Upper-middle, well-to-do; Lynn District - two floor condo
School: Rosaline Academy

Personality: Fairly intelligent, Angela often comes across as more mature than most others her age and rather doting to her friends and others around her. With a kind and caring personality it’s easy for people to be drawn to her and she’s never one turn down a friend in need – so long as help is in her power. More often than not she allows herself to be a shoulder to cry on and offers advice to the best of her abilities; though romantic love is far from her field of expertise. Angela has a very strong sense of family and platonic bonds, ready to take action at the drop of a hat if someone she loves is in trouble. Despite this, Angela lacks acquaintances that she would openly refer to as a 'friend' rather than just a school-mate, though this is nobody's fault in particular. To her frustration, her prim and proper behavior often pushes people away or causes them to think she's too good for them but really she just wants to be treated like everyone else -- and with her straight-laced upbringing she can't bring herself to change. In a sense she is very traditional, preferring to come off as proper as possible in the presence of others; especially those in higher positions and are looking to be impressed. Knees always together while sitting, legs tucked carefully under her chair, never resting her elbows on the table or talking with her mouth full, waiting for her own turn to speak and offering her full attention are all details she pays close attention to and does her best to follow etiquette. This sometimes makes her appear snooty or stuffy as she takes pride in these traits, though she doesn’t appreciate being treated any differently by her peers as they would one another. Angela can become frustrated by a lack of manners or improper behaviors such as acting out in class or bullying, and while she doesn’t have the strength to act out on these frustrations she isn’t above telling authority figures if necessary. She is a lover of the arts – literature, painting, music, you name it. Part of this is from her mother’s urgings but even then she’ll never complain. She has a great fondness for younger kids, harboring almost motherly instincts to care for them as well as make them happy. Fawning over babies or toddlers in public is a past-time that Angela is very guilty of – with proper manners, of course.

Appearance: Angela has dark, neatly cut hair framing an oval shaped face, generally accented with a gentle smile. Her bangs sweep to the side with two thick, longer strands curtaining down with the back cut into a stylish bob, complete with a white bow. She is slender, preferring to wear modest and fitted dresses with stockings and nice shoes. Her eyes are dark, stark against her light skin. Angela also looks a tad older than she actually is, and coupled her mature personality this sometimes leaves people confused or surprised.

History: From early on, Angela’s upbringing was to be a lady. She was never harshly punished despite her strict teachings, only enough to learn from her mistakes and move on. As soon as she had become old enough to walk and talk she was given courses on etiquette, as well as private lessons for the arts. Like most children from infancy to school-age, Angela was kept at home and chances to meet others her age were few and far between as her parents had few friends with children. Most, if not all, of her young life was spent in the company of adults.

With her tutelage within the household, she had learned reading and writing at a younger age than most and excelled in school. Angela got on well enough with the other kids her age, most too young to learn the habits of their judgmental parents, and regardless of class she had schoolmates that would accept her. In most cases, friction was caused by her lack of patience for ill-mannered children and her inability to keep herself from voicing her displeasure. Kids began to distance from her or deny her a chance to play as they were afraid of getting told off for things they weren’t brought up thinking were wrong. For Angela, it was frustrating on both parts; being denied by her fellow classmates “out of the blue,” as she felt, as well as the others casting her out for being proper. She had little to no idea that, as children, the others didn’t feel as if they had to worry or even put thought into such things.

Her Kindergarten years were spent in a private school, but after her falling out and constantly coming home upset she was moved to another school – a public school. However, as the reasons for her move not taken into consideration when enrolling, Angela was far less accepted by the older and more jaded children. Her social standing and manners made her stand out, and while she did her best to get along, children in this age have more tendencies to come off as cruel, regardless of intent. Her time in public schooling was cut short and she was sent back to another private school. Managing to fit in a little better with disciplined kids her age, it was a bit easier for her. Some kids tried to rebel in school, letting out their frustrations and acting up while out of the house, and this frustrated Angela to no end. She couldn’t quite understand why others her age were so against good behavior.

From infancy Angela spent a lot of time with her grandparents, lacking a proper babysitter or friends that she could have sleepovers with for several years. She didn’t mind this in the slightest, preferring the company of adults as they already had manners instilled in them. Even from the beginning she forged a bond with her grandfather in place of being a “daddy’s girl.” It wasn’t just her grandfather; she was close to all of her family. Even though her father was usually absent, his work as a doctor keeping him busy, Angela always loved when he was home for a visit. She and her mother were always cooking and baking together, and she and her grandfather would go on walks, read and many other activities. She was never bored while at her grandparents’ house.

Despite his active and lively nature, Angela’s grandfather was suddenly diagnosed with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease and within months was rendered bed-ridden. While his mind slowly degenerated, Angela was one of the few people he remembered in his remaining year as she consistently visited daily. Eventually, even his sight failed him and in his last few days he failed to even remember his grand-daughter. His sudden diagnosis and death was damaging to Angela, and while she is recovering, she has to work hard to be her usual, happy self in the presence of others. It’s most noticeable to her mother who constantly checks on her throughout the day while she’s home.

Angela spent a couple of weeks at home, recouping from the trauma, but it wasn’t long before she wanted to be out of the house and returned to school. A lot of sympathy was given and class-mates were a bit kinder, much to Angela’s appreciation. Nowadays, things are returning to normal but she still remains inwardly upset at all times.

Language: Latin

Desires: Angela wishes to speak with her grandfather again and to know that he really is in a better place. She worries for everybody who has ever lost a loved one and desires to be able to give them ease.

Emblem: Pentagon

Weapon: Two pronged spear

Type of Magic: Working mostly as a de-buffer, Angela is able to conjure "spirits" to slow enemies down or cause panic; she can create the illusion of the dead as a distraction or a scare tactic. In most cases her attack power lacks so she relies on tricks of the eye more than anything and has to rely on a team in order to be a successful fighter, otherwise she would quickly lose. Her abilities center around what would be considered ‘magic’ or ‘psychic’ taboos, such as magical symbols (pentagons, magic circles, etc), tarot cards and similar items. With her spear, she traces symbols or runes on any physical surface she can dent or scratch; dirt being the easiest and often most effective.

Located in Lynn District, Angela and her mother live in a comfortably sized, two-floor Condo paid for by her father. For most of her life the Baker family has occupied the building, and for the most part it's all the girl has ever known. She could lead you anywhere you wanted in the dark without fear of tripping over anything as they rarely rearrange furniture.

Angela pretty much occupies the upper floor as her mother only climbs the stairs in order to sleep. She stays out of her parents' room and bathroom, of course, but she is often found reading in her own room or going back and forth between floors to help her mother cook or clean. Her mother's office is the small den besides the kitchen where she transcribes her husband's work.
