APPEARANCE
Blake is a very short girl, who generally comes off as quietly collected, rather than her choices of hair colors and her unique sense of clothing style. Her hair is naturally wavy and her face is more often made up. She dresses for comfort when she is generally home.
One of the more striking features about this girl, are those green/gray/blue eyes that rest upon that heart shape face. Always holding a sense of mystery in them that could almost always seem alluring and seems to want to pull strangers in. Upon that, she has a smile that seems childishly innocent and seems to always hold some other meaning to it. The girl always smiles; and it seems to captivate most, be it negatively or positively.
Her over all frame is a slender one that shows a sign of curves. Making her not look so distastefully skinny. She has about an average size bust that seems to balance out her body a bit more. Her arms seem slender with a lovely shape to them, but attached to her small hands are elegant fingers that generally hold enough magic in them for the beginning stage she is in.
The girl has a sense of style, be it with just hair, makeup, or her own personal clothing. She never wears regular clothes, but always alters the outfits she gets to fit her wants and liking. Her makeup is usually very simple: Liner, red lipstick, mascara, cover up, and the occasional eye color that would go with something she is wearing. The only things she does not alter are the little outfits her grandmother bought for her. Feeling that they are just fine the way they are and would not want to ruin them.
PERSONALITY
Blake lately tends to keep to herself an now has a strong knowledge of the world around her. She holds to the few friends that she loves dearly and is still open to making new friends. However, she does not trust as easily now. She has a strong sense of independence and does not like others doing for her - especially the opposite sex.
Once one gets to know her and she lets you in, Blake is generally a ball of energy. She loves to make people laugh, be with a joke, sarcasm, whit… or any other way she can think of that would keep you wanting more of her jester like charm. She is a good shoulder to lean on for others and tends to listen well when you have a problem and need an ear; though she doesn’t tend to handle taking orders so well. She is the type of friend who would take a bullet for you if she had to.
Blake isn’t a very hateful person, but her fuse with people can tend to be short from time to time. It’s not that the little things set her off, but rather certain things piss her off to the point where she can’t really hold in her words much longer. Though, if you get her as an enemy; it would be bad on your part. Once you ar an enemy in her mind, if you did something to her to get her this way, you are generally dead to her. She will not talk to you, or even look at you. And pray you don’t have to have her remind you that you that you are basically a corpse to her at this point. She’s like a bumble bee. She’s cute until you mess with her. This cuts into her temper, which makes her like a firecracker ready to go off. She isn’t a ticking time bomb until you make her mad. She doesn’t get furious very quickly unless provoked or you are doing or saying something on a particular subject that makes you seem more ignorant than you already are in her eyes. I guess one could call that a pet peeve of hers. Give her a few moments to cool off and she will be back to being sweet.
She is the type of girl who will tell you like it is, whether you really want to hear it or not. It is a major fall back for her and it tends to make her seem mean. She doesn’t mean to sound mean, but she also feels you should know the truth. She also wishes for honesty with her. If she can’t get honesty out of you, generally she will get angry, or she will not talk to you. With this, she tends to sometimes not think before she speaks, which generally gets her in trouble. She is a brave girl, stupid - but brave.
When it comes to love and romance department, it seems to Blake that love has cursed her at some point or another. Which is why she does not respect cheaters, liars, ect. She felt her father was cheated out of his romance, and that she was cheated out of a good relationship with her mother. She also believes honesty is the key to a relationship. Without honesty, there is no trust. At first, Blake doesn’t really trust much of anyone. With that said, when she feels she has gotten too close, she tends to back off and tends to hide herself away. She doesn’t want to get hurt again and feels that opening up like that will force another heartbreak. If you go to kiss her, don’t be surprised if she turns her head and your lips meet her cheek. It just means she is not ready just yet. But once she is ready, she will give her heart to you and try her best to make it work out in both side’s favors.
Now, she is closed off and is trying to focus on her magic a bit more than usual as well as her career. She looks over her shoulder more and tends to be a bit more careful than she used to be. Her confidence is a bit more heightened and she believes in her strong personal goals.
SPECIES
Human, Witch
ABILITIES
- Can blow on the wick of a candle, only to light it.
- Necromancy! Course, she has only done this once to raise Stevie O'Ryan back from the dead and it was by sheer accident. It probably will not work all the time, as she was in desperate need when she brought him back from the dead. The only thing that she had done here, was bring someone back from the dead. However, like a parent to their child, she can be a rather force to be reckoned with for the undead. Mostly Stevie as he was her own personal creation.
- Immortality. This isn't much of an ability as it is a curse. When she regained her soul from El, a few things from Shade stuck with her. Immortality is one of them. She is forever stuck in the body of a 19 year old unless she is severely heartbroken or is gravely wounded.
- Magic. She is a witch and has grown into her powers. Though, she has a problem with second guessing herself from time to time, which can make a spell backfire or even fail.
- Healing Magic. Her healing powers come from her growing as a nurse. She knows natural remedies as well as the ones she began to teach herself to better help her friends behind closed doors.
- Potions. Her potion making abilities have advanced the more she has worked on the ability. Even as far as making her own specialty potions.
-Foresight. This is an ability that doesn't happen too often. It can happen in dreams as well as random. The future presents itself, however, it is always subject to change. Nothing is set in stone.
- Card readings as well as bones and runes. This is a simple task - to those who can do it. As she has made herself known in the ways of studying this. Should she do a reading for anyone, she always reminds them that nothing is set in stone and that the future is always subject to change.
- At one with nature. This ability can help her feel the 'feelings' of nature around her. Which can drive her up the wall from time to time.
- Soul Link. This only can happen to those she is very close with. She can feel the feeling of her friends from miles away. However, she has to be thinking about them intently to gain this.
- Black Magic. Which is not something she normally will delve into. This comes when she is pushed to her limit. Another part of her former life with her demon mate that stayed behind. A wicked side of her that she fears so deeply that sometimes that cannibalistic side of her will present itself in a hallucination in the mirror as she is simply getting ready for her day. This side of her has no care for life and will stop at nothing for the carnage and blood shed. She must be pushed to unleash this side of her. It has not made itself known and she hopes to keep it that way. She has done well to not give in to the darkness. In this form, she is a creature on a rampage. Magic is almost nothing to her, but once she regains the strength back to her real self, she will be drained emotionally and physically, even magically.
** Magic, used through prolonged periods of time can drain her, much like an athlete in training or even a singer who has sung non stop for so long. This would require spells like shields or stronger spells. Drained magic costs her magic temporarily. With a days rest or two. Maybe longer, depending on what was used, she will be in tip top shape. This is not limited to some potions as it could just be mixes of spices as well as other ingredients. However, if it is need of something personal like tears, she will not be able to do them, as they require magic. She can also read cards, though not well as when she is weak, she cannot focus too well. Foresight can still happen, as it is a type of de javue for her. Soul Linking is one that can grow weaker, but not diminish in a friends time of need.
HISTORY
Blake and her family all hailed from Dublin, Ireland. The move was made final after Blake’s mother died when she was 6. This woman had her own problems that not many people knew in the family; she tended to lock herself away and cut herself off from the rest of the world till in her own act of sadness, she took her own life, leaving the man alone with his two daughters to take care of. Shortly after Cynthia’s death, the girls were taken to Louisiana after the sudden spur of the moment move with her grandparents at her father’s side.
Once settled in their new home, strange things began to happen around the house. Things would get moved. It seemed that the lights would short out when there wasn’t a problem with the wiring. Even Blake seemed to be acting more strange - than usual, anyways. She would be outside and she would be talking to people who seemed to not be there. When asked who she was talking to, her family found it odd that she was actually talking to the plants. This made Thomas seem very nervous. Worried that his daughter might be going a little crazy from the loss of her mother, he sent her to see a therapist. Who seemed to find nothing, but assuming that Blake was a perfectly normal little girl.
As Blake got older, one could tell she wasn’t normal. Some of the kids at school would either find her fascinating or they would find her strange. Being in Louisiana, a decent amount of people thought that how different she was, was quite intriguing. She found herself to be a freak…
Until she turned 18. That was when her grandmother sat her down on her 18th birthday and informed her that she was in fact a witch. Which is why she was strange. Her grandmother picked up on it rather quickly, due to the fact that things around Blake were either moved suddenly or even the air around her seemed odd. Blake felt that this was a hard thing to take in, but managed to try to accept it. Now, she still lives in the same 3-4 story home and tries her best to work around with her magic with her grandmother and jealous little sister.
She had come back before after leaving on a family emergency. In that time, she fell in love with someone - but more things happened to where she left once more. Her grandparents passed away and she left again without a word. But Blake moved back to Louisiana on her own. A small sense of an idea of what she wanted to do. Upon her arrival, Blake not only gave her life to a hellhound who raped and tried to kill her, but a mate who would change her life for forever. Blake also gave her life to a shadow demon who later became her love. And she truly did love him. The hellhound, also grew to be her best friend, after he became a slave of the shadow demon she was with. Though, alas, this bliss didn't stick. The demon left her alone and pregnant. Once she realized how alone she was, the girl obtained her soul back, thus causing her to lose the baby. Guillotine and her friendship remained, and even she grew feelings for him. However, that ended in pursuing him. He had tried to kill her for now the second time, and was too late to win her affections. As she had gotten with an angel whom he disliked.
Now, Blake is working on her career, living by herself with her cat in an apartment and wishing to keep herself focused. She has a slight case of PTSD and is going to a therapist to deal with it and is on medications that she hardly takes, due to her wanting to use the use of the plants and herbs that she has growing on her back porch in her apartment. She isn't entirely the same girl and sees her trials as lessons who are shaping the woman she is today.
