Introduction xxxxxOne day she just started to shine. Now what? Description xxxxxA small teenager with short, dark brown hair, almost perpetually glowing skin, and eyes that glow notably brighter.

She glow and has been hanging around Evolve Cafe and the Guerrilla Garden in the Lower East Side this week. History xxxxxYour character's background. Powers xxxxxSamara's body generates light through her skin and eyes. The color and intensity of this light depends on her mental and physical state; its default approximates the spectral range of sunlight and tends to fluctuate between a barely visible glow when she is sick or undernurished and bright enough to cause significant eye strain when she is well-fed or engaged. This light is powered by her metabolism, and consumes energy continuously. On average she requires about half again as many calories as most teenagers her size to remain healthy, and the more light she emits the more food she needs.

And everything in between Coming soon. Trivia She tends to take things very literally. Her favorite show is Sha-ra and the Princesses of Power. She enjoys singing, but does so badly.
