| History
|
|
xxxxxBorn in Stevens Point, WI, Anette Eccleston was the only child of a high school history teacher and a housewife. She had a rather quiet and normal childhood, though she never had many friends and preferred spending time with herself, though she was very close with her family.She slowly discovered her powers in beginning in middle school, though she didn't realize that's what they were. At first, she thought she just had exceptional hearing and eyesight, including the ability to see in the dark. However, she realized something was very different when she grew wings on her back. The wings lead to her extensive leather jacket collection. Her parents noticed just as quickly and she was quickly pulled from school. This didn't prevent the bullying and humiliation though. Her parents, unsure of what to do, found Xavier's school. They sent her there and she finished high school, while also discovering her powers.
xxxxxHowever, she found herself at odds with the school's stance on mutant/human relations. She refused to believe it could happen peacefully and felt the only way was to fight back against injustices. She gained very few friends in school this way, though she did gain knowledge of the Brotherhood of Mutants. At 18, once she graduated, she took off for New York to find the Brotherhood and join them.

| Powers
|
|
xxxxxAnette's powers are related to owls. The most obvious sign is the pair of brown feathered wings on her back, though she usually keeps these covered with a jacket. If she chooses to take flight, she can move silently and near effortlessly However, she can only keep up a steady flight for about an hour at a time before tiring, though if she coasts, she can go for quite a bit longer. She can choose to expend her energy into an extremely fast (and short) flight, with the ability to dive towards her target and safely stop herself within inches of hitting it.
She also has the ability to see and hear beyond normal human capabilities, including the ability to function perfectly at night. This takes no effort though loud and busy areas can sometimes give her a headache. Couple with the ability to swivel her head 270, she is nearly always well aware of what's going on around her.
xxxxxShe also has the ability to emit a very loud and high-pitched screech. It doesn't do too much, other than travel a relatively long distance and maybe scare or irritate the ears of anyone who wasn't expecting it.
xxxxxA recent addition to her mutation are the talons that have replaced her hands.

Allies
- Dusk - One of the few carrying the title of "trusted". Maybe it's the wings.
- Ion - Partner-in-crime for bad decisions.
- Isra - One of the few voices of reasons in her life.
- Killian - Partner-in-crime for everything else
- Pedro - Adorable in a puppy kinda way Theme
- Teague - Such a sweet kid. He has a kind of innocence about him...for a terrorist.
Enemies
- Rasa - Rasa also betrayed Anette and her child in the future but took a more active role, actually having custody of the child and indirectly leading to Anette's death. While Anette is willing to give B a second chance, she has no plans of giving Rasa the same.
People She Knows
- B - In the future, ze abandons Anette and her child to Sentinels. Present Anette obviously didn't take it well and...ahem, voiced her displeasure. With claws. Since then, she's attempted to apologize and though she doesn't trust hir, will try her hardest not to attempt to murder hir.
- Billy - They weren't on good terms in school. It hasn't gotten much better. He hates her and she knows it. She enjoys messing with him though; he's the mouse in her cat-and-mouse game. He also responds well to the name "Clorox". Honestly, she doesn't really /hate/ him, she just loves watching him squirm.
- Daken - Current Status: Ex. Theme

| Trivia
|
- Some might remember her having a goth phase back at Xavier's. By phase, it was pretty much the entire time she was there.
- She owns a pretty massive leather jacket collection, due to the need to cover her wings when out in public.
- Conversationally fluent in German.
- There are several reasons she is as angry and untrusting as she is but there's one memory that still haunts her. It's also the reason she is incredibly protective of her wings.
- She collects scars. Currently has: a small bullet wound on the back of her right calf, a very deep and jagged scar that is roughly the shape and size of a large wildcat's jaws on her left shoulder, and a barely visible bullet wound in her right shoulder.
- As of right now, a recovering cocaine addict. Withdrawal is a bitch, thank god there's booze.

| RP Hooks
|
| Job? - Need a job done? For the right price, Anette will probably help you out.
|
| Classmate? - Xavier Graduate, Class of 2010. Remember Bender and Allison from Breakfast Club? She was a cross between the two. She was the quiet girl in the back of the class and occasional trouble-maker. She also openly disagreed with the "peaceful resolution" beliefs the school tried to promote. She may have also been a bitch to you.
|
| News? - She's been in the news relatively recently for two separate incidents, one involving the destruction of Sentinels and the other involving a big green dude. She's been laying low since but if she does sneak back to the city, you might recognize her.
|
| Flirting? - She's pretty open to flirting, from any gender. She's also pretty open to everything that occurs after flirting. However, her player might be slow picking these things up so making it painfully obvious would be appreciated.
