Anahita

Am I always starting over in a brand new story?
Introduction xxxxxShe's seen The Revolution, and she's not impressed. Description xxxxxA short and slender middle-aged woman. She has long straight black hair liberally shot through with silver, light brown skin, and dark brown eyes in an angular face. She is Hazara, but most Americans have difficulty placing her ethnicity and tend to guess she is Southeast Asian or Native American. She speaks English with a subtle Persian accent that most Americans also cannot place. Reputation xxxxxKnown among Prometheans as one of the Blackburn escapees, the only lab to liberate itself, and a steady, hardworking member of their community. Her former labmates (Blackburn and otherwise) remember her from the inside as quiet, reserved, and kid. Around Freaktown, she's made a name for herself as a storyteller and a survivor of Utopia. History xxxxxYour character's background. Powers xxxxxShe can sense and manipulate the molecular properties and behavior of water. She cannot levitate water or otherwise make it defy the laws of physics, but can magnify or accelerate natural processes in ways that look like very much like they do. The properties she can affect include phase state, density, hydrodynamic stability, friction, surface tension, and other intermolecular forces. Skills xxxxxAnahita has led an extremely disrupted life, travelled much and relied on others little despite her highly communal philosophy, and so has picked up a wide variety of skills. Most of these are quite commonplace, and though she is generally competent she has honed few of them to mastery. Of those that she has honed, probably the most significant is managing men with large egos in such a way that they do not think they are being managed. She is highly experienced in political organizing, which includes coordinating often very unorganized people as well as public speaking, logistics, operational security, and making the most of limited budgets. She has eclectic medical skills, primarily in first aid, herbal medicine, and midwifery. She is an excellent gardener, mainly of vegetables and herbs, although she has dabbled in growing crops and ornamental plants. She knows how to hunt well enough to supplement impoverished diets but not to subsist, and is a decent shot with longarms and bows. She is an excellent swimmer. Though she never received any formal education, she is an avid reader in history, political and economic philosophy, sociology, religion, and hydrology. Dari is her first language, but not having spoken it since early childhood she is very rusty and far more fluent in English. She can speak Mandarin and Spanish reasonably well, and just enough badly accented and ungrammatical Arabic, Russian, and French for basic communication. Connections Friends Coming soon. Foes Coming soon. And everything in between Coming soon. Trivia She wears a quartz crystal pendant with a bubble of water trapped inside Most people assume she's a lesbian, which seems to amuse her She probably has that thing nobody thought to bring but which would be really handy right about now Gallery [[Image:|x150px]] [[Image:|x150px]] [[Image:|x150px]]	Full Name Codename None Birthdate 12/21/1972 Birthplace Parwan Province, Afghanistan Species Mutant Affiliation Prometheus Alignment Communal Powers Molecular hydrokinesis Occupation Storyteller Registration Status (currently n/a) Faceclaim Atossa Leoni RP Hooks Weird auntie - Anahita isn't conventionally warm and solicitous, but strives to take care of her community and has a wide range of useful skills. Plumbing problem? She can take a look. Sick in bed? She'll make you soup and clean the house while she's at it. Need a trip sitter? She and her ginger lemon tea are there for you. Practical radical - A quietly passionate second-generation communist, she has learned from, worked with, and loved comrades of many tendencies. Her organizing skills and experience can come in handy whether for long-haul coalition building or emergency actions. Water witch - While not Wiccan herself, Anahita was raised by a Wiccan coven and has incorporated aspects of Neopaganism into her own syncretistic practices. She rarely identifies herself as a witch, but makes no secret of it in relevant conversations. She's much more reserved about the ways her spirituality encompasses her (mutant) power. Big fish - She loves telling stories and is prone to embellishment. It's not always easy to tell if she's mildly exaggerating, framing something in a surreal way, outright fabricating, or not embellishing at all. Every word is true, of course.
