Bio:

Kherington Hope

Name: Kherington Hope
Nicknames: Kerry
Age: 24

Birthplace: Honolulu, Hi

Sex: Female

Occupation: Student at Colorado State Mastering in English

Appearance: Black, shoulder length hair that she spends hours every morning on to make fall in ringlets. Almond shaped dark brown eyes and a tan expressing her Sioux Indian roots. She is only about 5’3”, but has long legs and usually wears heels. She always has a smile, showing off her semi-strait teeth.

She is regularly very fashionable about what she wears: a lot of complicated outfits and suits with pencil skirts and bright blouses.

Personality: She is a very shy woman, hardly ever speaking louder than a whisper. However, she is very friendly to new people, smiling a lot. Not the kind of shy some people might mistake for snootery. Even after getting to know people intimately, it is very rare for her to raise her voice or share her thoughts and feelings. She always puts others before herself- she would never put her own wants before someone else’s, a very selfless person. She hates being the center of attention with a passion. The mere thought of having people pay attention to her makes her very dizzy.

Special abilities/talents: She can read almost any book within two days (War and Peace took only three).

Supernatural Affinity:
Species/Group: Clairvoyant- Discernment
Power(s): a type of clairvoyance in which one can ‘see’ the true nature of another being. If a demon is hiding in human form, or inside of a human being, she can see their true self beneath the disguise. This does not mean she can see past fey seeming, whether a person is a Were, etc; They appear to be a normal, uninhabited human to her.

The nature of this power also allows her to tell the difference between a good soul and an evil one, in strictly black and white terms. Usually, the only evil souls she sees are demons or truly evil people. Ones who fall in the grey line tend to appear as good depending on what they’ve done in their life and for what purposes.

She sees a type of aura around a person when she meets them; this is the visual manifestation of their soul to her. The ‘aura’ appears as either white or black. (Angels appear as a blinding white light when she first meets them.)

If a person is being controlled by a demon, the image of the demon is superimposed over that of the human. A demon in a human form has the blackest aura possible

Level: not very advanced, she tries to ignore her gift.
Affiliation/Rank: n/a
Preferred Prey: n/a

History: After graduating high school, Mr. Hope left home to prove himself. He joined the Navy and traveled the world. While stationed in Florida during the early 70’s, he met a beautiful American Indian who was attending Florida State. They fell in love and married four months after meeting.

Five months after that, a son was born. The newly formed Hope family was soon after sent to Busan, South Korea, where they stayed until the son was entering middle school. They were then moved to Hawaii, and a daughter was born. They named her Kherington.

With so many years separating the siblings, it was to be expected that they might not get along as normal siblings do. But to the pleasant surprise of both parents, their son began expressing a nurturing and protective relationship with his baby sister. Then he started conversing with her, as though he could read what she was thinking and understand it, even at such a young age. Their father dismissed it as childhood imagination. But their mother, who was used to the Indian legends and possibilities, secretly played with the idea that the two shared that secret bond usually seen only in twins. That they could share thoughts without opening their minds.

As both children grew older, it became apparent to Kherington that her brother was the only one of the two who had that connection. She felt lonely about this and thought she had done something to anger the earth. Why did he get a special talent, and she didn’t? She began doing things to appease the being she had wronged. Through this, she became truly selfless.

When she turned fourteen, she ‘became a woman.’ As with the stories she had read so many times since her brother left her for college, Kherington began noticing strange happenings about herself. God had heard her prayers, the earth granted her wish. However she worded it, Kherington got the special ability she asked for. Asked for, but didn’t want.

With this ability came the end of her innocence. She could no longer pretend the world was a safe, happy place. She began to see people’s ‘auras.’ After watching them, she began to realize what the different colors meant. What made one person’s aura white, while another person’s was black. True evil existed in the world and she could never again pretend differently.

Time went on. She went to high school. After one misstep, saying something about her power that she shouldn’t have, Kherington not only began to shy away from her peers; she also began to hate her gift. Fighting to ignore it with everything she had.

She went on to college in Hawaii before her father was stationed to Colorado. She transferred to Colorado State. She graduated with few ‘gift related’ problems. She then went directly to graduate school to gain a masters degree in English Literature.

While in her first year, her family received news that shattered their lives. While on a routine special assignment, Mr. Hope was killed in action. Devastated and barely able to pick up the pieces of her life, Mrs. Hope moved back home to her parent’s home in Mysteria, North Dakota, which fell nearby the reservation.

It was here, while trying to put her shattered life back together, that Kherington’s gift refused to be ignored for any longer. People needed her help and she was going to give it to them. Whether she wanted to or not.

Flaws: Because of her string family ties, they always come first, even above her own happiness and desires. If they were to ask one thing of her, she would make it her number one priority. She has given up many of her own dreams to make sure her family is happy.

She only knows that demons and angels exist, everything else is fantasy to her; thereby she is a very naïve person.

Due to her always being so shy around people, it is very hard for her to find information that she may need without overhearing. She also can not openly discuss her opinions about what she has “seen” in front of a lot of people. She usually runs it by someone else first, and they use her findings while crediting her…sometimes.

Merits: A strong sense of family, her family comes first, above everything else. They would do anything for her, without asking questions and expecting nothing in return.

She is able to do extremely fast research and store it in her mind for later use. This includes everything from laws to some bit of knowledge someone may not want her to know.
