AMITYVILLE ACADEMY ENROLLMENT FORM
Name: Olivia Nicknames: -none so far- Gender: female Age: 15
Faction: Undead Race: Wight [based from A Song of Ice and Fire and a wee bit of D&D]
Natural Ability: - Cold Acclimation - as a Wight, Olivia is able to keep her body temperature at cool levels to keep herself from rotting. She can adapt it depending on where she is physically and also what she's wearing.
Personality: At first glance, some would think Olivia is an introverted and shy individual with the way she acts; skulking behind corners and watching groups of others from a distance, or even peeking her head over the tops of large strange books. But, honestly she's just very soft spoken and bad with making a first move and introducing herself.
Olivia doesn't really talk a whole lot, she's more inclined to keep her thoughts to herself when she first meets people. But she's just really quiet in general, her voice is soft and it's rarely raised except in extreme circumstances in which others will no something really has gone wrong. And she's rather okay with this, she likes to listen more than anything. Not everyone has to be an outspoken individual and she's rather contribute when it's really important. Being apart of the group is good enough.
When others do get to know her, Olivia can be actually rather pleasant to be around. She's polite and sweet if not a little awkward, and to some extent a little weird; she's terrible with idioms and concepts, cultural references and sometimes takes things too literally so she will often say something completely off and wrong. Being a zombie subclass, the little Wight is more comfortable around others; first thinking it was due to being inexperienced until she realized it was just inherent thinking. This makes her a little clingy; being a little shadow to those she meets and are nice to her, or staring fondly in adoration near and far.
Though Olivia has now spent a considerable amount of time in her new home, there is still so much that she has yet to learn. Being able to take a trip with the students of Amityville opened her up to the world outside those of the Wight community, but she is still a sweet summer child who doesn't have a lot of experience on Halloween and the world and all the zcreatures around her. So much is still fascinating even if mundane to everyone else. And she'll still honestly fall for a lot of what people will tell her - be it what things are, how things work, history and rituals. But she's eager to learn and happy with anyone who will take her in and help her.
THINGS TO KNOW!:
. Collector - Since coming to Halloween, Olivia has taken up a small hobby of collecting items from every new person she meets; barring permission of course. Be it cultural or even personal, anything she is given is kept nice and safe in labeled glass cases for her to remember each new experience and the person behind them all. It's small and ranges from mostly common objects (someone gave her a rock once) to even a little bizarre (she has a finger from a neighbor). Olivia is also very strict on her collection. She will never steal or take, things need to be given to her (or in the rare case, she asks).
. Cleaning - Olivia has a fondness for cleaning and organizing. It's calming and relaxing for her but sometimes can be an unwelcome distraction, making her lose sight of time from the hours she can get lost in doing the activity. This activity stems from her previous life where she actually worked with her family as a maid, she doesn't remember it just knows she likes it.
. Likes to read, though she's not really good at it so she learns at a slow pace.
. Really bad with money because everything looks fascinating, so she spends what she gets far too often.
A Brief History in Time: Olivia's body was found under an olive tree. No one knows how or why, or even the length of time she was under there dead and how much longer she had lingered there past reanimation. All that was known, and eventually passed along to her, was that she was found with a large chest wound and judging from the lack of other injuries and the well kept condition of her body, was that it probably wasn't very long. All she knew to understand was that's where hew new life started and her new family took her in.
In the beginning, everything was as if in a haze. She was never really sure who had found her first, be it the Reapers or the other Wights that she came to learn were now her mother and father. All that she could register was going to a new place, having a new home and clothes and neighbors and relations. She wasn't too sure about anything, really too confused and shellshocked to figure it out at first.
Time was given to her to adjust, to see what kind of state of mind she would have and finally processes allowed Olivia to broke out of the jumbled mess to take in the brave new world ahead of her.
Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy? Amityville has a reputation of being the best, and her adoptive family have always wanted to send one of their own to such a school. Though she's enrolled at a local school, they keep trying to get her in - even offering her up for an exchange program to go with Amityville students to a new and wonderful place, which proved fruitful in some ways. If Olivia is going to learn about Halloween, how to use her FEAR - and maybe learn the finer points of being scary - and gain some friends, it's the perfect place.
FEAR Ability: - Life drain - Being a Wight gives Olivia the ability to drain the life out of those she touches. She must be physically touching her opponent with her hands, skin to skin, in order to pull out their energy and only a little at a time and as long as she is in contact. (Swift Strikes Mechanics)
What is a Wight: - not to be confused with the Barrow Wights, Wights are cold temperature based zombie like creatures, animated from the dead that have fallen in snowy temperatures. They reside in snowy temperatures or at least just the cold. Some say they are originally created and brought back to an unlife by fabled creatures called White Walkers but as no one has seen one in ages, so it is more of a legend and myth within their community. They can range from dumb as a doornob variety to those capable of actual function. (Olivia's whole family is the latter but take in those simple strays before keeping them or finding someone else to care for them). Wights are pale creatures with black hands and feet with pooled and congealed blood, and glowing bright blue eyes. They tend to live in large communities because its more comfortable that way. Elders go out to the human world to scare the common folk as well as collect those who have fallen prey to the harsh climate and weather and reanimated. Wight have a few known weaknesses; fire, Valyrian-steel and obsidian.
Physical Description: Eye Colour: Blue, very bright and haunting with a little bit of a glow. Hair Colour/Style: Short and curled on the ends, oddly for someone who is dead and potentially rotting its pretty well cared for and pretty-like. Her hair is very dark blue, nearly black with chunks of lighter blue in various places. Skin Colour: Over all, stark white. Her hands and feet, however, are blackened from her blood having congealed, that creeps up her limbs and fade into her new natural skin tone. Clothing Style/Colours: Oddly, with her body temperature, she likes to layer it on and keep most of herself covered. She favors dark colors or muted tones, often in cool or blues. Olivia wears a classic lolita style and ideally with a little bit of Game of Thrones thrown in there somewhere (because chiri totally found Season 3 promo pictures and just gushed over Cat. Sansa too. Bell sleeves, cool necklines and fur! Yeah!) Extra: No real extras, she has dark circles around her eyes like she hasn't slept for days though. One aspect, that no one would ever really see... would be her big heaping chest wound, which has since gone black as her limbs. References: see above! biggrin and see this, I got inspired - I leave all in the capable hands of Nerp o-o!!!!

/rolls on in crit bus (its a medium sized bus shhh)
age- just establish mental age. (I assume its the same tho lol)
Species- Zombie=/=wight.....sorta. In TiH this is a thing that more or less establishes exactly what your student is. Putting Wight just goes okay this is X it's not Y. Undead is undead is undead is a wright might stem from zombies but wouldn't be considered a 'zombie' as its got too many differences. (the biggest one being cold attributes/origins, you get the idea. Basically if it's not close enough to be the same, its just best to consider it separate u-u)
Personality/things to know:
Her personality leads me to think she'd not been halloween long at all. But in thing to know, you says years in ref to her collecting things- it's a bit disjointed as unless she was SUPER HEAVY SHELTERED or in a very remote region of halloween, she would know a fair deal about everything. Just clear this up a bit, as it sounds she's only been in halloween a few months at best. (I think you've been questing a year though? I want to say I say her in the horsemen meta but not sure otl)
"As she was already dead, she was obviously not a good meal for the family of Wights passing by, so they made her their own and took her in;"_ two things more or less don't fit, one being that eating humans is... really frowned on in general. Its kinda like eating dolphin. Some people do it and dont care, (and can be caught and fines and go to jail blah blah), others find it rather barbaric. These days, you seem human flavored products than real human meat. 2- is that a reaper would have to have been the one to revive her. Undead cant bring over other undead.
That's alllllll i got thoooooo
