[Enrollment] Henriette the Ghost ~ accepted

[gracie loff]

AMITYVILLE ACADEMY ENROLLMENT FORM

Name: Henriette Lachance
Nicknames: Hattie, Hettie, Hennie, Harri/Harrie, and Etta/Ettie.
Gender: Female
Age: 17

Faction: Ghost
Race: Haunt

Natural Ability: xxxxxxxxxx • Object Invocation: A haunt's powers are usually tied to their power object in some way.

Harriet can manipulate her "saw". She can move it making cutting motions through her body for scare or she can hide it if needed. (Though she rarely if ever hides it) Even if hidden the cut through her middle is always visible.

Personality:

She knows nothing of her past life, like every other ghost.

While the actual details of her death are unknown, basically whether she was murdered or it was an accident, she tends to not worry about it so much. Once upon a time she did dwell on the past. She fretted about how she was killed, and who she was, to the point of constant depression. Now she prefers to live in the moment than to dwell on the past, enjoying the new life she has as a ghost! Or.. so it she claims. She might claim to live in the moment, but she hides her depression with a fake smile. While she has given up on the details on her death she still finds herself .. lacking. Incomplete. She struggles with her self image, keeping herself busy with her acts as a means to fill a void.

To people around her Harry seems to be charming, kind, and flamboyant. She thrives to be the center of attention and the center of the stage. She can be fickle, impatient, and intolerant at times. While she keeps a kind face to those close to her, her mood can change at flip of a hat! Her pride can also get the better of her at times, as she see's herself more talented than others. She can be known to lapse into French randomly.

Why are they enrolled in Amityville Academy?

Like other ghosts, she "showed up" in Halloween town. She did not show up via a reaper, but instead from whatever "killed" her. After her state of shock wore off, she began to gather up stray emotions and become the ghost she is now. While she entertains others for fun she doesn't really have much of anything to do at the moment.

FEAR Ability:

The Mind:
This technique makes it harder for your opponent to hit their desired target, ie you and just about anyone else. This type of Fear attack is best used in one-on-one fights.

Harry has the ability to conjure illusions of herself, making it harder to hit her. These illusions are frail, and easily torn apart if targeted.

Physical Description:

Eye Colour:
Hair Colour/Style:
Skin Colour:
Clothing Style/Colours: (Remember, everything should be Halloween-inspired! Creepy is good!)
Extra: (Your character's special features: wings, tail, pointy ears, fangs, whatever else that isn't covered above.)
References: Here she is!

Looking good so far. However I'm going to give a heads up that her fear maaay not fly as typically only reapers are allowed to utilize a weapon/item in fear attacks. I'm not entirely certain how it pertains to haunts, due to their natural ability, however.

I would ask one the admins for clarification on that since there's kind of a thin line as far as that goes.

(Also small thing but I thought she was a reaper going off of the title.. XD; )

Oh. Um. I'll have to edit that out in. I assumed since it said the natural ability was tailored to the item in question, the item could be used.

As for her stage magic. Could I have it to where she felt emotions near it, and decided to relearn/learn it since it gave her a good feeling? I want to keep her a magician. I just need to make sure I do it the right way.

Edits: Actually, I should ask. Is her natural ability ok? Being able to hide, and "move" it for show? As long as I don't use it for attacks?

That way I could keep that, and maybe take the suggestion of a magical/illusion attack.

Ok, so my natural ability is fine. That's good to know.

As for her finding who she is, I have one more question. My friend is getting his quest made by Zoo, and his family business is actually helping ghosts settle. I could rp with him, and add that to her bio... to fix that? To give her a reason why she relearned magic, and settled in? Or am I not allowed to use a friends character, even if I have permission?

And nope, I meant magic tricks. Like card tricks, bunnies out of hat, that sort of thing. Not her being able to conjure fire, ice, etc. I was actually going to ask, for her Fear sake, could it be Mind/Illusion based? She makes illusions of herself and cards, making it harder to hit her?

-buckles down, and edits out the things talked about then-

I also changed her name, since you mentioned someone else was named Harriet. I don't want to cause trouble for the other owner.

I think that covers anything. I'll go into her in more detail once I've been able to rp her, but I hope that covers her for now. Thank you for the help, and let me know if I missed anything. ^_^
