 Name: Camille Garmon
Age: 24
Birthday: October 14th.
Place of birth: Scotland
Place of residence: New Zealand
Languages: English
Height: 5’4
Weight:
Hair: Frizzy, dark red, and waist-length.
Eyes: Milky white.
Build: She’s a bit on the ‘petite’ side, so to speak. She’s thin, almost bony, and hasn’t got much curve to her.
Other physical characteristics: Light freckles on her cheeks, nose and upper arms.
Clothing: She always wears a too-big, dark gray overcoat (which resembles a raincoat more than anything), and under that it’s usually just a pair long shorts, and t-shirts. She’s not picky about her appearance, as she can’t really see it, so she dresses rather blandly.
Shoes: Sneakers. Plain and simple. Beat-up old sneakers.
Piercings: Just a stud in each ear.
Tattoos: None
Personality: Though friendly, and easy-going, Camille is a very sarcastic, stubborn person. She never knows when to not say something, and even when she does, she’ll say it anyway. She’s opinionated, to say the least, and will bite your head off if you don’t agree with what she thinks. Despite her small appearance, she can be a very loud person, and has no problem shouting to get someone to pay attention to her, even in a room full of people. She can’t see them staring at her, so what’s the problem, right?
She seems to have a smirk permanently fixed to her face, even when she’s talking to someone she gets along with. When she isn’t smirking, she’s either baring her teeth, or, though it’s rare, genuinely smiling.
When put in a dangerous situation, she can’t think clearly, and any fear that may be invoked comes out as anger, or stupidity, more likely the latter. The same could be said for anything remotely important, so those who know her, know better than to leave anything up to her.
The only time she isn’t acting mildly nasty or angry is when she’s embarrassed, or tired. When she’s embarrassed, she acts like anyone else would. Blush and try to brush it off, but when she’s tired she’s an incredibly cuddly person. It’s very concerning for those around her.
Sexuality: Homosexual
History: She was born blind, and with a heart problem. The doctors didn’t expect her to live past her third birthday, but here she is, alive and kicking 24 years longer than they’d anticipated. She was raised in a relatively normal fashion; until her younger sister went missing then her whole life went to crap. She was only seven at the time, but it still effected her more than the rest.
Her parents moved her and her brother to New Zealand a few years later, to try and start fresh, and as she grew up, she turned into an antisocial problem child. Her family was strictly Christian, so she went against everything they believed in to try and distance herself from them. Why? Because she felt they’d run away, and left her sister behind. She was too young to ever think of her as dead, which she most likely was.
By the time puberty hit, she was dating as many women as would have her, and that is what ultimately led to her parents officially disowning her. Or, her father, to be more precise. Her mother had tried to make her thirteen-year-old stay, but she was kicked out anyway. She moved in with a seventeen-year-old girlfriend, and eventually got into drugs.
Eventually, she realized she’d gotten what she’d wanted, to be away from her family for good, but now she had worse problems. Her health was plummeting, and her heart was a stones throw from failing on her. By the time she started to clean up, she was twenty-three, so she’s still no there yet.
Family: Father, Mother, older brother, and deceased sister.
Likes: Peaches, reading binary, French fries, being on land, money, anything associated with money, and anything that smells nice.
Dislikes: Water, spinach, anything with tomato in it, being blind, people who make cracks about her inability to see, ginger ale.
Secrets: She wants, more than anything, to be able to see.
Fears: Deep water.
What she has with her:
1: Bag of clothes and toiletries
2: Binary books
3: Her stick, though she never uses it.
4: Medication for her heart.

Name: Harbor Seal
Scientific name: Phoca vitulina
Range: Coastal waters of the northern Atlantic and Pacific Oceans as well as those of the Baltic and North Seas.
Habitat: The sea, rugged, rocky coasts and sandy beaches.
Status: Not endangered
Diet: Fish such as menhaden, anchovy, sea bass, herring, cod, whiting and flatfish, and occasionally upon shrimp and squid.
Physical description: Harbor seals have spotted coats in a variety of shades from silver-gray to black or dark brown. They reach five to six feet (1.7-1.9 m) in length and weigh up to 300 pounds (140 kg). Males are slightly larger than females. They are true or crawling seals, having no external ear flaps. True seals have small flippers and must move on land by flopping along on their bellies.
General information: Harbor seals are mammals, that is they are hairy, warm-blooded, air-breathing animals, which suckle their young. They weigh about 24 pounds (11 kg) at birth and gain weight rapidly during a month-long suckling period, perhaps doubling their weight. Average weight for adults is about 180 pounds (82 kg); males are somewhat larger than females. They are covered with short, stiff, bristle-like hair. Coloration varies, but two basic patterns occur: a dark background with light rings, or light colored sides and belly with dark blotches or spots. Harbor seals molt annually, usually in late summer.
Harbor seals are well adapted to life in the sea. They are able to dive to depths exceeding 600 feet (183 m) and can remain submerged for over 20 minutes. Oxygen-conserving adaptations that allow such dives include reduced peripheral circulation, reduced heart rate, and high levels of myoglobin (muscle oxygen binder). Harbor seals are graceful and efficient swimmers as they use their hind flippers for propulsion and foreflippers as rudders. Movement on land, however, is slow and laborious.

Name: Black Rat Snake
Scientific name: Elaphe obsoleta obsoleta
Range: Eastern North America
Habitat: forests, fields, marshes, and farmland
Status: Endangered
Diet: Birds, bird eggs, and small animals.
Physical description: The black rat snake can reach a length of eight feet, but is usually much smaller. The adult snake is black with a white or creamy yellow chin and throat. In contrast to the black racer, the belly of a rat snake is a mixture of light and dark, giving a somewhat mottled appearance. Light areas are often apparent between scales, and the scales on the back are weakly keeled. A juvenile rat snake is gray with light spots running down the middle of the back, and has white eyes. This pattern darkens with age and is generally undetectable once the snake reaches a length of three feet.
General information: These snakes are powerful constrictors, suffocating small birds, squirrels, rats or rabbits and swallowing them whole. They often live in bushes and brush growing along dusty country roads or highways.
Black rat snakes can also climb trees. Many of them will actually live in trees. More often than not, it is considered to be the farmer's friend because of the rodent control it offers. They avoid human contact and pose absolutely no danger, even if bitten.

Stages:
25%: Her eyes are starting to turn more of a brown color (her sight is returning), her fingers and toes are becoming webbed, and she’s starting to grow a stub of a gray-black serpentine tail. There are patches of dark gray scales on the sides of her jaws, and her hands are starting to grown sleek, shiny gray fur.
50%: Her neck as lengthened, her teeth are becoming pointed, and her ears are starting to disappear into her head. Her hair seems to be growing into her neck and upper back, and becoming sleeker, while the end is still frizzy, if a tiny bit straighter. Her fingers have lengthened and are now fully webbed, her feet have done the same, and have small claws on each toe, her lower arms are covered in the gray fur, the scales on her jaw has spread up her cheeks, and down her neck, and her tail has lengthened to the back of her knees. Her eyes have become even more brown, and slightly more reptilian. Her body is getting thicker, and rounder (think seal), as are her arms and legs.
75%: Her face is lengthening, her nose is shrinking, and her ears are nearly non-existent. Her neck has gotten even longer, her arms and legs are starting to turn into jointed flippers, and her tail is longer. Her arms and legs are completely fur covered, as is the upper half of her torso. The scales on her face stopped growing, and from there turned to fur of the same color. Her nose is nearly flat, her sight has completely returned, and her eyes have gone from brown to black. She can no longer walk, as she’s turned too far into a seal (she sticks to water), but she is able to lift her upper half, and pull herself along with her arms, using her legs to help push. Her hair has grown even more into her body, and is starting to blend with the fur, turning her head and back a reddish-gray, instead of normal gray. Lighter splotches of fur are starting to show on her sides, and her tail is almost to it’s complete length.
100%: Her legs have turned completely into large flippers, while her arms kept their joints. She’s now covered in fur, and though her torso resembles a seal, there are out of place mounds of pointless flesh remaining where her chest could be. Her tail is it’s complete length, and is splotched, like her sides, back and arms. Her hair is nothing more than fur now, and where it was has light gray splotches as well. Her face is completely reptilian, long, with slits for nostrils and no nose, along with pointed teeth that are all the same length. The only places where there is no fur, is where there is scales, such as part of her face and neck, her tail and down her spine (where it isn’t covered by hair. Her spine is slightly more ridged, her neck now curves in a ‘s’ like shape, and is about as long as her body (not including legs). The claws on her feet have lengthened, and small ones have grown on her hands.
(This is subject to change, as I've probably left things out, or messed things up.)
