✣ Gᴇᴛ Tᴏ Kɴᴏᴡ Mᴇ ✣

Weight; 145
Hair Color; Dirty Golden Blonde

✣ Dɪɢɢɪɴɢ Dᴇᴇᴘᴇʀ ✣

Personality;
Drew is not your usual girl. She is mischievous and wild. Drew is a very independent and intelligent young woman, especially after all her years alone. She is a fast learner and likes to observe rather than be center of attention. She is very mellow and easy-going girl with grace. But warning, if you get in her line of fire, you probably will get burned. She has a tongue like a snake that will make you wish you never spoke in the first place.
History;
Drew started out as a normal girl with a normal mom and dad. Her life was pretty good. Until she turned 10. Her parents were professors at a near by collage and she was their prodigy in a small town in the country. They adore her until her powers started to show and that is when her parents died and her life changed completely. It all started out with just some parts of her body changing, like her eyes, her ears, her nose, her hands, her feet, or her tail springing up. Her parents noticed and started to hide her more and more until completely when they took her out of school and home-schooled her and everything. But Drew wouldn't accept being hidden from human view and when she got the chance for freedom she took it.

So one day Drew was invited to a birthday party and her parents were working. Well one of the children's fathers came out of the house and told her the horrible news of her parents dying in a car accident when they were going home. She sort-of freaked out and ran. She was unnaturally fast for such a small girl so no one could catch her. She was so afraid that she shifted into what only could have been a tiger. After that day, she has been on the run ever since hiding from the police and from the adoption agency. She has learned how to survive on her own and is still wary of her power or powers or whatever.

Now after about 7years of her running and hiding in fear and survival, Drew has traveled and ran into Blackmere Academy hoping that she can find her way and learn more about her power and maybe unleash any other powers she has.
Likes;
She loves lightning which is strange since you don't have lightning without thunder.
Drew also loves fish.
And rain forests is also a love.
Also she loves night time and that is the most likely time you'll see her.
Another thing she adores is to just go and lay out in the sun and sun-bathe.
She loves to just watch and listen and be an observer.
Dislikes;
Drew doesn't exactly love the water. Of course she doesn't mind it, but it isn't her number one love.
Drew doesn't like the rain or thunder either.
Another thing she dis-likes is being the center of attention.
She dis-likes being the center of anything actually.
Other; ***

✣ ᴏᴛʜᴇʀ ✣

Power; Shapeshifter; White Tiger. Drew shapeshifts into a tiger. She can change just parts of her if she wants to, but she has very little energy left after the shift. In her power she is still herself, but it's like another part of her is coming out of the shadows and taking over. With her shapshifting, she can climb and run better than most.
When she is in tiger form, she is a white sleek and lean tiger with light grey and jet blueish-black stripe that shimmer every time she moves and her rare green flecked with gold eyes stand out.

❂ Catherine Williams ❂

Description;
Catherine is taller than average, standing at just under six feet. She has a slightly elongated neck and a very angular, feline face, with high cheekbones and dark brown eyes that are slightly almond-shaped. She has skin that is dark copper, verging on brown, and if she had to be classified racially she might be called african-american. She has black hair that is cut ragged to her chin; most of the time it sticks out at odd angles. She has long legs, long fingers, and a runner's build; by this I mean that she is extremely agile and very, very fast. Her chest is flat enough that if she wore loose clothing and didn't speak, she might be taken for a boy. Her ears are pierced and she wears a small gold ring in each one; on her left wrist she wears a gold bracelet and one made of braided twine. Around her neck is a black velvet collar on which hangs an ankh. As for clothing, she prefers to wear loose shirts and long skirts in an array of earthy colors. She refuses to wear pants that are shorter than her knees or shirts with v-necks.

✣ Gᴇᴛ Tᴏ Kɴᴏᴡ Mᴇ ✣

Name; Catherine Williams.
Nicknames; Cat. Kitty.
Age; Eighteen.
Gender; Female.

✣ Aᴛ Fɪʀsᴛ Gʟɪᴍᴘsᴇ ✣

Height; Five feet, eleven inches.
Weight; One-hundred and eighty-four pounds.
Hair Color; Black.
Eye Color; Dark brown.
Scars/Tattoos/Piercings/Other; Both of her ears are pierced with small gold rings.

✣ Dɪɢɢɪɴɢ Dᴇᴇᴘᴇʀ ✣

Personality;
Catherine is not one for beating around the bush. If you ask her a question, the answer will be direct and blunt. She doesn't sugarcoat things, either- if there's something to say, she will say it. Due to this she tends to be quite tactless and will often completely miss social cues. This leads to moments of awkward silence, and it's one of the reasons she's never had a boyfriend. Catherine is very outgoing and rowdy, sometimes even crossing the border into abrasive and aggressive. Before she attended Blackmere, she was in track, cross-country, drama, and roller derby. She studies hard and does well in school, but doesn't care for it very much. When she's not doing homework, running, or skating, Catherine enjoys knitting quietly, although it's a bit difficult because all she really wants to do is play with the yarn. She's extremely fond of cats, and they seem to sense that she has a higher connection to them than a normal human. She's completely hydrophobic, rather easily amused, and never learned how to swim. Her dream is to someday travel the world.

History;
Catherine has an interesting history, to say the least. It's long, involved, and quite supernatural. It would have to be; she's the reincarnation of a Goddess. She's a bit hazy on the details of her past lives, but there have been a lot of them. She is weaker in each one; now she is as close to a human as a deity can be, and something in her knows this and hates it. In this life she was born Catherine Williams, the daughter of Nathaniel Williams and his wife, Ophelia Williams. She grew up rather normally, without any strange happenings until she turned sixteen. She was caught speaking to the family cat- and the cat was speaking back. After two years, her strange powers began to make her parents nervous, so they put her on a train and sent her to Blackmere. Nothing too traumatic, and Catherine was ready to leave. She needed something else, something more, and it has always been her dream to travel.

Likes;
-Cats, because she can speak to them.
-Sunlight; it's good for napping in.
-Knitting, although she likes the yarn better.
-Roller derby, because it helps with her aggression.
Dislikes;
-Water, because she can't swim. Also hates the rain.
-Dogs. They just frighten her.
-Close spaces. She gets claustrophobic really easily.
-Large groups of people she doesn't know well.

✣ ᴏᴛʜᴇʀ ✣

Power;
It's... complicated. Basically, she's an accidental reincarnation of the Egyptian goddess Bastet. The why and how of it is unclear, but she has the power to communicate with cats. It has been implied that the reading of hieroglyphs should come easily to her, but as of yet it has not. Because Bastet and the lioness Sekhmet were sometimes worshiped as one and the same, Catherine also has what she calls the red. Sekhmet was a warrior, and renowned for her skills in battle. Sometimes she would enter a berserk rage in which she would fight blindly until all of her enemies were defeated. Although Catherine has never truly entered this state, she sometimes succumbs to fits of aggression that she channels through roller derby. Besides being able to communicate with felines, the goddess has gifted Catherine with intensely heightened senses, the ability to balance easily, and a strange way of always landing on her feet. Her twine bracelet is said to be a weapon of immense power, the whip of Bastet, but so far it hasn't shown to be anything out of the ordinary.

❂ Francesco "Danny" Dominic Fonzarelli ❂

✣ Gᴇᴛ Tᴏ Kɴᴏᴡ Mᴇ ✣

Name; "Danny" Fonzarelli
Age; 16
Gender; M

✣ Aᴛ Fɪʀsᴛ Gʟɪᴍᴘsᴇ ✣

Height; 5"6
Weight; 133
Hair Color; Jet black
Eye Color; Brown
Scars/Tattoo's/Piercings/Other; Two parallel scars, white, about 5 inches long, vertical, on his right shin; A scar below his right elbow, about 3 inches long, reddish, roughly shaped like a Z; Has various smaller scars but those are the only ones worth mentioning.

✣ Dɪɢɢɪɴɢ Dᴇᴇᴘᴇʀ ✣

Personality;One might think from his slight build that Danny would be quiet, shy, and cowardly. Shy, maybe, but definitely not shy or cowardly. Danny prefers to keep to himself; even when he gets lonely (yes, he does have a heart) he insists on being completely independent. Though he may seem withdrawn from everyone, his opinion is not. Can be blunt but sometimes on accident. Danny can have have a big mouth, and he is stubborn as a mule. He can have a hot head when he fiercely supports something. But he is not mean. After years of being bullied, Danny may at times have a sharp tongue and a temper but will never pick on the weaker man. Once you win his trust, he is loyal and a hard worker. His trust is not easily won. He is very wary of others, both because of being a social outcast has made him slightly bitter and paranoid, but also because he has irrationally low self confidence and irrationally high false confidence. He also at times seems to not learn at all from mistakes. He doesn't pay attention well. He often needs to learn things the hard way, it's just the way that he is. He has a tough, pessimistic shell built around him, but though he'd never admit it, he will always be a hopeless daydreamer. Perseverant, strong-willed and determined. For the few that are close to him, he shows his sarcastic sense of humor and straightforward honesty. For those who don't know him, he comes off as a cynical, defiant punk kid xD

History; (Ohhhh boy, much longer than expected)
Grew up in Brooklyn, NY his whole life (though, his accent is relatively light). His family was poor, but they managed by running a cozy little cafe, Fonzarelli's Frappés and More. Danny had four older siblings, Angelo Jr. "Junior", Luka, Rosalia, and Mik, and a fraternal twin sister, Antonia "Toni". He grew up without a mom- soon after Toni and he were born, she ran off with another man and was never heard of again.
Danny and his siblings, his father, Angelo Sr., and his very old immigrant grandmother, Aida, put their hearts and souls into that business. It was a busy life, and although his family was close knit, they were often stressed and overcrowded in their tiny apartment. Danny's papa had always been more of a workaholic than an affectionate father figure, so it was Grandmother Aida, wise and loving, that tried to raise them.
Danny hated school. Had had few friends, but it wasn't really his fault. Since he was little he had been mercilessly picked on and excluded. He was physically and verbally bullied by many, and perhaps what egged them on is that he would never back down, even when he knew he would lose (ragazzo stupido! poor Grandma Aida would mutter la rotella stridula ottiene l'olio!).His twin, Toni, was quite poplar and beloved, yet everybody seemed to scoff at her brother. Danny immersed himself in working at that stupid coffee shop, and, when he could, played guitar. He loved music and was naturally talented in guitar, songwriting and singing, though he never showed anyone. He'd only be teased further.
When Toni was 12, she developed light/electricity manipulation powers. She was scared and amazed but only told Danny about it. They kept it a secret because they were afraid and confused about it all. Not long afterwords, Danny developed darkness manipulation. Toni insisted that they keep it a secret and never practice their abilities around others, though it frustrated Danny to be beat up when he knew he could beat bullies back now. One day walking home, the bullies had the audacity to attack Danny even though Toni was with him, which had never happened before. And they were brutal. Toni couldn't take it, she used her powers to fight them off. After that, they were very scared about being revealed.
Those bullies steered clear of the Fonzarelli twins from then on. They'd hear rumors now and again, and the bullies claimed they were freaks, but surely nobody believed them. At least, that's what Toni and Danny thought.
A month later, Danny had gone over to work on a project at a friend's house. Toni was alone. Hours later, she was found dead in the East river, badly burned and beaten. It didn't make sense to anyone. Toni was pretty, sweet, popular, talented, and only 15, how could this ever happen to her? Danny knew he knew, and he thought maybe it could help find her killers. So he told his papa everything about the powers. He expected shock, confusion, sadness, and amazement. What he didn't expect from his very own papa was pure fury.
Danny's mother, apparently, had also been "gifted", and didn't tell his father until after they were married and had the children. His father was very unhappy that his family could be endangered by her "freak powers". He had only prayed his children would not inherit any of it.
Furious for being betrayed, and ignoring the protests of his other children and Aida, his papa ordered Francesco Dominic Fonzarelli to get out. Now. So Danny did just that. He got on a bus and went right out of New York. He didn't know where he was going, only away, away from the family he had loved and the place he had hated. His father, delirious with his own grief, had put it in his son's head that this was his fault, that he was a danger, that he had caused everything.
Somehow he learned of Blackmere, he couldn't remember how exactly, and decided it was better than being homeless and on the lamb. So he is new here, and uncertain of his choice to go here. Of course, he was know as Frances or Francesco, his real name, back then, but now goes by Danny. He tells no one his real first name.

Likes; Music, trees (never had many around growing up, so he is still amazed by them xD), coffee and wonderful Italian food of course, running, history (the only subject he ever really liked).
Dislikes; Most people, cats, depression, rich kids, football, bullies, math, bugs, humidity, pillows (yes, he prefers hard surfaces), being told what to do.

✣ ᴏᴛʜᴇʀ ✣

Power; Shadow Manipulation (Netherkinesis, to be fancy). Now, one might think, so what, he can throw darkness around right? woooo scaryyyy. But with it, he can pick stuff up, throw things, and hurt people. Ever been hit with a whip-like shadow being hurled at you? Ouch.
Dorm; How about Dorm 2?
