Character sheet from Nephele Vaughn

Name :: Nephele Vaughn

Age :: 15

School Rank/Job :: Sophomore

Appearance :: Hair Color: Silvery-blond (sometimes looks white/silver); mid back to waist length; wavy Eye Color: Gray/silver often changing so as not to have an exact color Height: 5’2” Weight: 93lbs Other Traits: Her skin is paler than most, and is ice-cold to the touch. Nephele is very small for her age, in height and in weight, which comes from her high metabolism. She mostly wears jeans and fitted T-shirts, her clothes pretty much being water-proof. She always goes out in knee-high water-proof hiking boots. She often is wearing non-fingered gloves that reach her elbow. She mostly wears her hair down, or in a side braid. You won’t catch her styling it in much else.

History :: Nephele was born into a poor super family, where life was tough. They lived on the darker side of town, surrounded by the thugs and druggies. Her father had attended Sky High and had been expected to do great things in life, which he did for the first little bit. He married a non-powered girl and they were happy for a while. However, giving birth to Nephele caused great problems within her, and she steadily got weaker and weaker, until she died when Nephele was two. The hospital bills had climbed higher and higher as Nephele’s father had done everything he could to try and save his wife. Once she died something inside her father seemed to snap. He ‘crossed over’ you could say. He began to steal to pay for them, though he didn’t really seem to care much for Nephele. As Nephele got older, his stunts became more and more extravagant, as did his temper. Often times on a failed job he would come home and beat Nephele. This in turn caused Nephele’s powers to present themselves at an earlier age than most super-powered children. Once she discovered she could basically turn ‘ghost’ as she dubbed it as a seven year old, she began to hide from her father. A couple of years passed this way, but when Nephele turned ten her father was finally caught and sent to jail. She started to take care of herself, and some of the nicer neighbors took her in when they noticed. She was eventually taken into the foster care system and placed with a nice loving family at age thirteen, and has stayed with them ever since, though she doesn’t feel like she belongs. Her foster parents had no idea she was a super and sent her to regular high school until the summer before her junior year. Now, seeing as Nephele had an October birthday, she was always the oldest in her grade. However, she was exceptionally smart and skipped the eighth grade, therefore placing her in high school at 13 in the beginning of the year. When they found out through accident, they insisted she go to Sky High. She at first resisted, knowing that people there would know about her father, but her parents were relentless, and enrolled her for her junior year.

Personality :: Nephele has a very light-hearted, easy going personality. She's very shy, but will open up more once you get to know her. She is an optimist, and tries to always look at the bright side of things. She is also a very curious person, often getting into things she shouldn't. She is very indecisive, often changing her mind four to five times before deciding on one choice. However, when she does finally decide on something, she'll stick with it to the end, as she is also a very stubborn person. Nephele doesn't get mad easily, as her anger will build for a while, and then suddenly be there when you least expect it. She is sensitive, so snide remarks and rude comments will hurt her deeply. This, paired with her photographic memory and stubbornness makes it hard for her to forgive people. Often she will hold grudges for weeks or even months before finally thawing out. Growing up with a villain father and losing her mother at a young age has hardened her to some extent. She can be very serious and protective of things, and will go into 'survival mode'---a mode in which she instantly thinks only of herself or those on her team, and will do anything to either win the situation or get out in the safest way possible. Also, because of the abuse she received as a young child, she is somewhat unstable, though you wouldn’t know. This mental instability shows itself through her powers, which are mainly controlled by her emotions.

Powers/Abilities :: She can manipulate mist or fog or smoke when it is around her. This includes being able to surround something with it to obscure them, or allowing someone to escape. She can also harden it into mostly solid objects, such as a shield. These objects are solid but will always appear as mistforms, which is to say they look like fog despite their solid state.
