Full name: Lillian Wilson
Nickname: Lilly, Tiger Lilly
DOB/Age: She was born March 20th, and is seventeen years old.
Gender: Female
Oddity: Gifted
Abilities: Lilly has hyperkinesis. Basically, her body can do things that most people only dream of. Things that even trained professionals have a hard time doing. Scale a brick wall with just her hands and feet? She'll find the strength and agility to do it. Climb a pole almost too large to wrap her legs around, she'll be sitting at the top in moments. Dodge a speeding bullet? Child's play.
But her gift comes with one fatal flaw. In order for her to do these amazing feats, in order for her body to enter the 'working state' as she calls it, she has to be completely confident in herself. She has to really and honestly believe that she can get up the wall. She can't imagine falling as she climbed the pole. She has to be completely certain that she can dodge the bullet. Because of this, she normally doesn't go around dodging bullets. While she's come a long way from where she was, she's human. The little voices in the back of her mind absolutely adore questioning her.
Appearance: Lilly was born with a shock of gold-blonde hair, which has grown out to her waist over the years. She normally keeps it braided or at least in a pony tail to keep it out of her face and absolutely HATES it when her hair gets wet. If any kind of moisture touches it, the normally straight golden locks become wavy and curls at the end.
While her hair is normally what people notice about her, that's not the only thing about her. The next thing most people notice is her face as a whole. She has warm brown eyes placed at very slight angles on her warmly tanned face. She also has a splash of freckles right across her nose, and her shoulders are speckled as well.
Because of her gift, Lilly's body is far more toned than most people would expect. She has almost none of the girly curves most people would expect, and she really doesn't care about them. Being able to scale a tree or hit a bullseye every single time is worth it. That's honestly why she wears her hair so long. Most people don't mistake her for a fine-boned male with her hair so long.
Attire: Because of her gift, Lilly wears whatever won't get in her way. She really doesn't need anymore reasons to doubt her skill. She can normally be seen in a tank top and shorts and completely barefoot. While this means she suffers whenever the wayward sticker or other unpleasant things find her feet, she prefers the feeling of being free. Honestly, if she could, she wouldn't even wear the tank top. A sports bra would work just as well and it isn't like she has much to hide.
Detailed personality: Lily's personality is actually pretty easy to explain. She makes friends with everyone and clings to every single one of them. She's always surrounding herself with people, and though she will make friends with negative Nancy's, she prefers it when those around her are just as happy as her.
Not only does she prefer it, but she /needs/ it. When she's alone, the happiness Lily shows the world goes out like a light. She needs people around her in order to keep the voices out of her head. What voices, you ask? The ones that are almost constantly present. The ones that tell her that she isn't worth anything, that her gift is nothing. The voices that question absolutely anything she does. It's like having a whole room of pessimistics stuffed into her little mind.
Having people around her, especially happy people who believe in her, help to quiet the voices. They save her life each and every day, though they never know it. That's another thing about her, Lilly never talks about herself. Ever. Anytime the conversation turns to her, even if it's just asking if she's got her homework done, she'll change the conversation away with such happiness that most people don't even question it.
Birthplace: Charlotte, North Carolina
History: Lillian Wilson was born with her power, and with it came the subconscious torment. It began when she was learning to walk. One day, she walked as if it was nothing and her parents, they really did care for her, were absolutely amazed. They cherished their little amazing baby, and started Lily's need for praise and acceptance. Then, one day, baby Lily was introduced to a child around her age.
A child who tried to walk, and then fell. The memory, though she was so young, was branded into Lily's mind. Why had she been able to walk so easily, and the other child had fallen? The doubts began. After that, Lily was always almost a year behind the kids her age. She stopped walking, it took forever for her to start talking, the whole deal.
This cycle continued into her childhood and only became worse. In school she learned about sports, and whenever she had encouraging couches and teammates, she excelled. Not only did she excel, but she shined. And with that shining came people who hated her for it.
And with people who hated her came the whispers.
And with the whispers, Lillian fell.
Though her and her family were forced to move often because of the bullying Lilly constantly received, the Circo found her. It honestly wasn't too hard. There were thousands of stories of a young athlete star, a young future Olympian, who would suddenly fail when her team or school needed her most. She is one of the few who weren't brought to the Circo against her will, and even her parents had agreed she should go.
She would like to believe that it's the best decision she's ever made.
Occupation: While her gift could lend itself to almost any kind of occupation, Lilly will eventually be a knife-thrower. She will also help others whenever she is needed.
Relationship status/Orientation: Single, and orientation is unknown. She is equally kind to everyone.
Additional information: Not that I can think of.
