Appearance
Hazel is decidedly a very normal looking girl. Kept on the inside, she's been more or less kept away from the influences of make up and fashion. She's got average brown hair, routinely shorn to a certain length, and warm brown eyes with just a hint of green. She is exactly 5'5 and a half, and is a healthy body weight. She has been reasonably active, so is perhaps as fit as can be expected for a normal 19 year old girl. Her frame is decidedly feminine, but toned and understated, however she could still be labelled at the least as 'pretty'. Though it is not enough to be profusely noticeable, she is often reminded to correct her posture. A slight slouch means that she often closes over herself, hiding her slightly from vision.
Personality
Easily seen as childish due to the coddling of her captivity, Hazel has always surrounded herself by books and knowledge as a distraction from the walls that surround her in some hope of catching a slight glimpse of the outside world in written form. Because of this coddling, she has always been well taken care of and so can be seen as childish when she is confused. However, she is very intelligent, and eager for more knowledge, and revels in a challenge. Her living situation has not been kind for her personal emotional development, though, and so she can come across often as just 'nice' or 'sweet'. She has big dreams and even bigger expectations of herself, and gives in to frustration easily when confronted with her own failures. She is, however, brave and fearless. She can be quite argumentative, and could potentially be quite passionate and outspoken, given half the chance to be so. This is all due, of course, to her naivetÊ. She has no real life experience, meaning that she can also be more than a little unpredictable as she tries to work things out.
The benefit of being kept in captivity is that Hazel has had expert help in developing her powers to the extent that they are rather powerful. She has the ability, first and foremost, to manipulate the air. She can turn it into a solid force to move things around her, and act as a shield on demand. She can control it well, though not for long periods of time. While she only really has to use it for short periods of time, using it for longer results in spontaneous fires in her immediate surroundings which she struggles to control and are notoriously difficult to put out.
Talents
Music - Lots of spare time means that Hazel is proficient in more than one instrument
Studies - A strict education has meant that Hazel is very intelligent in many ways, from mathematics to literature to geography
Athletic - Hazel has enjoyed some sports in the past, in what little space she has. She therefore has a good amount of stamina
Weaknesses
Common sense - For want of a better term, Hazel has very few social skills. She is very unsure of how to act around people who she hasn't known her entire life, and therefore finds it easy to accidentally offend them
Self control - Though Hazel's powers are strong, they have recently been increasing in strength. She can sometimes find it difficult to control them.
Naive - She believes the best in all people, and often this leaves her disappointed or at a disadvantage
Fears
Heights - Hazel can't stand heights. They force her to freeze up, with no idea what to do. Classic 'deer in the headlights'.
Spiders - They have too many legs.
History
There is little to say about Hazel's history as it is all recorded somewhere on a computer or in a notebook. She has no idea who her parents are, though in fact she was grown from two carefully selected specimens. But that doesn't mean she was lonely. Hazel has always been surrounded by people. Staff change constantly, and there are only a few she has known since childhood. To her, they equate extended family, however they treat her for the most part with a cool detachment. She has dreamed for a long time of escaping, or just glimpsing the outside world, however it has always been clear that it is not for her. Everything in her life has been given to her on a plate, albeit not a very glamorous one, so that she has always been comfortable, if not exactly happy.
