strengths.
Sasha is mostly fearless, due to many nights watching
lots of horror films old and new. They also can find at least
one thing to relate to others, as they know what it's like to
be on the outside. They have gotten decent at fighting,
considering that they were quite the target of bullying at
their all boys academy. They are intelligent and witty,
or at least they consider themselves to be. And Sasha can always
find something to do - or someone to bother, so they are hardly
ever bored.
weaknesses.
Sasha can never stop running his mouth, even when it ends
in an ass-kicking. They found it easy to find the right buttons to
push, which wasn't good for someone who liked to have friends
around. They have their own sensitivities, especially towards
their identity being questioned or trashed on. They are wildly insecure,
which is hidden by their bravado most of the time. They are secretive
when it comes to their personal life and anything they hold dear, so
they don't have much in terms of close friends. Thought they hate to
be alone, and would rather be in bad company than no
company at all.

The person that Sasha is today is not the person that they once were. Before Wales and finding family with the Floyds, they were a scared little boy from an orphanage. Their parents, the people that were supposed to love them most, had abandoned them. This stuck with them for some time, locking him in a staunch fear of being abandoned. They watched every word they said and every thing they did, worried that anything they would do would make their parents take them back. Even with assurance from their new parents that they loved them, even now there is still a feeling in the back of their mind that one day they would still end up alone.
But once Sasha started to hit puberty, a new person blossomed from the unsure and shy orphan. Their parents had never kept anything from them, so they started to explore gender identity. They never felt quite comfortable as a boy, but they felt that being a girl wasn't quite right either. They were most comfortable with an in between, and chose to become Sasha. They could hide their former self inside of this persona and be whoever they wanted to be, and that made them feel powerful. Sasha was a mouthy one, sure, but they were fearless. They started to find causes to care about, and really fell headfirst into this new identity. Being this person meant that they could be as flamboyant as they wanted, and passionate about anything and everything. Sasha was the person to walk right into a debate with arguments flying. They didn't care whether they were loved or hated, so long as they were noticed. It's hard to abandon someone when they're never out of your mind.
There was still another person hidden within the barrier of Sasha. They held all of Sasha's secrets and flaws. They were a highly jealous person, in relationships and just for people who had healthy family dynamics. They knew the world as the fortunate, and the unfortunate, and they always watched with envy for the fortunate. And while Sasha craved those relationships to fend off the abandonment issues, they usually rejected the ones they fell for, unable to commit to a relationship and breaking their own heart instead. So Sasha is flawed, what human isn't? Everyone pretends to be better than they truly are, and Sasha does the same.

Sasha has been blessed by NEPHTHYS, goddess of air.
As a host, they have blessed them with LEVITATION. They can cause oneself, subjects, or objects to float in the air unassisted, allowing them to seamlessly float in the air and prevent their body or the object from making contact with the ground below. This usually happens uncontrollably when they are put under high stress. It's not very long, and usually they are unable to control the length of time, it just stops and they fall to the ground.
There is also WIND CONTROL. They are able to shape and manipulate wind, the movement of air relative to the surface of the planet. They have difficulty creating wind, usually resorting to wind and breezes naturally occurring. The easiest use of the wind is walking on the air, since it gets an added boost from their levitating ability. Using a breeze to walk rather than pulling themselves straight from the ground is easier for them, thought they still have to concentrate to keep themselves up.
They can also enhance the skills they already have. They can enhance their hearing through amplification of the air molecule vibrations. They can enhance their touch by reading the air and feeling any disturbances. They can enhanced their smell by detecting a scent that goes into the air. They can only enhance one of these things at a time, and it takes practice. Eventually Sasha will be able to enhance their speed from reducing air resistance and using air pressure for propulsion, and even strength for using air pressure for harder strikes, but that is still out of their reach.
The final ability they've noticed is atmospheric adaption, their lungs are now able to filter out any toxic or non-gaseous substances. There is a limit to how much they can filter out, if they are bombarded with the substance it would still be too much for them.

The story of Sasha Julian Floyd begins in a New York Orphanage. The unknown mother left her baby on the footsteps and made sure that one of the orphanage workers took the baby inside. The first few years of Sasha's life was unmemorable, until Siobhan and Aled Floyd found their own adventure on the footsteps of the orphanage.
Siobhan and Aled were avid travellers, using their love of research to explore new cultures and countries that were much different than Wales. But they were brought to a halt as they landed in New York and found a little orphan to pour all of their love into. They decided to adopt Sasha and retire from their research travelling to settle in Wales. They took over research at the University of Wales and sent off their own students to explore the world. They started to explore the world of parenting with a scared American child who only knew what the 'right' words were to say to please them. They decided to open Sasha's mind to a new world in a small country. New foods, a bedroom for themselves, old films they would watch on their old leather couch, and a cute puppy to grow older with.
Their childhood was considerably good; the Floyds were good people that Sasha loved quickly. With that love came the fear that one day they would do something that would make them fly Sasha back to the states and back to the orphanage. They were a "perfect child", as much as they could be. The Floyds were very hippy-like and one with the Earth, so they never kept anything from them. There was incense all around the house, they did yoga and meditation every day, and even discussed marijuana and other psychedelics that they wanted Sasha to do safely if they were ever interested. Siobhan was the one to introduce them to gender identity. She told them that they could be whoever they wanted to be, and Siobhan and Aled would always love them no matter who they were.
Sasha dove head first into their search for identity right as puberty hit. The in between of male and female made them feel like that was who they really were, and adopted a new name: Sasha. They kept the name from their biological mother as their middle name, only because they did not want to lose that one connection with her. But as they became more comfortable with who they were, there were plenty of people who weren't. Sasha started going to an all-boys academy and the boys were not kind to him. This was a new world for them as well: a world of loneliness unless they wanted to be subjected to slurs and insults that stabbed right in their heart. Right when they were blossoming into their true self, it felt like everyone around them was dragging them back into their shell.
In secondary school, they decided that they would fight back, not only for themselves but for others like them that couldn't fight back. Fighting for lgbt+ group at school turned into fighting the very people that bullied them. They tried not to fight, but remaining silent while bullies made their life a living hell was no longer working. Their parents tried to keep them in line, talk them through conflict resolution strategies and avoiding punishment when possible, but Sasha was exploding out of their shell and they were not going to go back. They fought for themselves and for other victims of bullying. It was frustrating when they were the one being punished by the school for fighting when their bullies would receive little. The faculty was just as bigoted as the people that were sending them home with black eyes.
It only became less hostile as it neared the end of secondary school. Sasha was trying to research more about their biological parents, and found a school in New York with an international law degree near where the orphanage was. They were ready to leave Wales for the foreseeable future, and into a new world of America. They were sure that they could find acceptance in New York, and could explore their identity even more. They managed to keep the fights to a minimum before graduation, and their parents flew with them to help them settle into Lindenwood. They found a campus lgbt+ organization, made a few friends like them, and was adjusting well to New York. Then they went out for the first time, crawling through New York city bars and slipping Sasha alcohol since they weren't old enough in this country. When they were on the way home, a man got on the subway and started staring at Sasha and their friends. They made comments under their breath, glaring over until Sasha, emboldened with liquid courage, stood up and asked the man what his problem was.
"People like you." It was the main thing Sasha remembered before the man swung at them. It was a one-sided fight mostly, from what their friends said, but Sasha didn't remember much of anything after the man hit their head. Blurred images of being pulled off the subway and tugged home, arguments on whether or not they should take Sasha to the hospital since they're underage here, and mainly pounding in their head. It crushed their image of what New York was supposed to be, but they never backed down. They were just, more careful, pretending that they weren't bothered and that this wasn't the same as the academy back home. Sasha threw themselves into their studies and the lgbt+ organization, fighting only on campus where they felt comfortable in their safety.
The Egyptian trip that was offered at the end of their sophomore year was a chance to travel like their parents did, and to find friends outside of their safe space, which they hadn't done much of since the accident at the end of freshman year. And surely they could handle a month an Egypt, bigots or not.
