[BCOLOR=transparent]Name: Alba Blackwood[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Age: 16[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Birthday: June 20[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Gender: Female[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Species: Human[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Class: High School[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Grade: 11th[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]College Major:n/a[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Appearance Description: [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]She has the same golden hair and pale complexion as the rest of her family (barring her younger sister Alma), but with bright green eyes instead of the usual ice blue. Tall and lean, she has the body of a dancer, appropriately enough considering her hobby.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Personality Description:[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Like fire, Alba is bright, fickle and easy to turn out of control. Very outgoing and blunt, she makes friends and enemies alike easily. While friends are better than enemies, for the most part, she doesn’t care what people think and just tends to do what she wants, or whatever is the most fun, typically. She’s something of a hedonist, who believes firmly in living in the moment, so she tends not to think of the consequences of her actions. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Ever since the becoming a teenager, she’s added “lovers” onto her list, and likes to flirt with just about everyone, from students to teachers, humans to most definitely not, to everything in between. Mostly, she just does it to tease or get a funny reaction out of people, but if they do flirt back, she’s more than ready to take it a step further. If someone pushes her, she’s the type to push back.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]When it comes to love though, she’s definitely note looking for anything serious, because she’s sixteen and wants to have fun, after all. In general, she doesn’t really believe in love in the first place, at least with people. If she loves anything, it’s fire. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Powers: [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Pyrokinesis[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Fire elicits an almost trance like state in her, and she often conjures flames without even realizing it. There have been plenty of moments where, lost in thought, she’s started trailing flames with every footstep or made a nearby object burst into flames. The biggest problem with this is, she has a hard time putting out her own flames, largely because some part (or a large part, really) doesn’t really want to put it out, because fire is beautiful and precious to her. Her typical solution to this spontaneous combustion is to use her other power and basically put out the fire with her own body. It’s typically an effective, if highly painful, solution. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Unfortunately, such a technique doesn’t really work with her larger flames, so she’s forced to lug around a bunch of fire retardants and extinguishers with her everywhere she goes. It’s quite an annoyance to her, and she often purposely “forgets” to bring it with her until the next time she has an accident and gets in trouble. This is why she loves to make friends with people with ice or water powers, despite their opposing elements. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Beyond this, her lack of control doesn’t really bother her. She likes that her fire can’t be controlled by anyone, even by her, because that’s exactly what makes fire great to her. There are times when her fire seems to really possess a mind of its own, as it’s able to move around and take on shapes normal flames can’t, all without Alba directing it. Unless, she dances, that is. Almost like it responds to the beat or sway of her own movements, she can control her fire almost like a snake charmer. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]She still can’t put them out though.[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Rapid Regeneration[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Alba is not fireproof or even fire-resistant, so every time she conjures a flame that gets to close, she hurts herself. Depending on how large a fire she conjures, she’s managed to sustain even third degree burns all over. But, thanks to her rapid regeneration abilities, she’s good as new only several very painful seconds later. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Her regeneration abilities do not actually work at the same speed for all injuries. It works incredibly quickly against wounds caused by fire, but when it comes to those caused by blunt force trauma or slicing cuts, it can take about an hour. Damage by ice, by some law of elemental weakness it seems, can take up to several hour. Small wounds take the longest to heal, typically taking an entire day [/BCOLOR][BCOLOR=transparent]instead.[/BCOLOR]
It's not infallible though. While it hasn't really been tested out, obviously, any attack that directly targets her brain or heart in a one-hit-kill would kill her because she doesn't have any time to heal. However, if only part of her heart or brain is targeted, she will still survive. It needs to be the whole thing at once to kill her (so, a stake to the heart won't, but ripping out her heart will).
Using fire to kill her, however, is impossible, even if it is aimed at her heart or brain. Even if she is burnt into a crisp, she will be able to "rise from the ashes", as it were, like a phoenix.

[BCOLOR=transparent]Biography: [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]The Blackwoods are an old and high distinguished family renowned for having quite a few members with powerful unique abilities in their long history. They are descended from nobility, and are said to have played an important role in several key events. In most recent years, they have become known for becoming quite a business conglomerate, under the head of Alba’s father, Alfred Blackwood. This is in part due to his own powers of luck manipulation, where he can turn the odds in his favor, and his secondary powers of charm. Thanks to the relatively subtle nature of these abilities, as well as his own human knowledge and talents, he is able to carefully manipulate the world market for maximum profit. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]In his home life, he is seemingly just as successful, at least on the surface, with three out of four children having impressive unique abilities. Alba was perhaps the flashiest, compared to her older sister, Althea, who had powers of telepathy and hypnosis, and her younger brother, Alphonse, who had powers of illusion. She was the youngest to display her powers as well, being only a toddler when she first made her crib’s door explode in flames. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]The family has a long tradition of being enrolled in Starlight Academy, though later generations typically did not enroll until middle school, preferring to homeschool them instead. Because of the uncontrollable and destructive nature of her powers, Alba was shipped off to the island as soon as she was allowed to. This was just fine with her, considering her issues with her family, and she enjoyed the freedom of the island and school instead. Her siblings all later joined her, even Alma, who displayed no visible abilities so far, because a test revealed latent potential in her. [/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=transparent]Additional Information: Hmm… I plan on playing most of her siblings too, though I might put up a want ad for a few instead. [/BCOLOR]
