Powers:
Weather manipulation; Millie can sense, control and create weather patterns.
On any given day she can sense what the weather is and will be (within two days) at any given place, she doesnât have to go out of her way to sense it or use any energy, but itâs more like she just unconsciously knows it. When she knows the weather patterns for an area she can change it, making it rain or snow or any kind of weather she feels like.
Without changing the external weather, in concentrated areas, like a room, she can create her own weather. She can manipulate air and air currents to create powerful gust of winds, tornados/hurricanes, and other forms of wind storms. Millie can control clouds, which as well as allowing her to create fun patterns in the sky, allows her to create fog, if she wishes heavily enough to conceal everything around her. She can manipulate electricity in the form of creating lightning, and directing the lightning at particular targets. She can also manipulate water in all its forms, she can make it rain, snow, hail and can combine these with wind to create hail storms or blizzards.
Millie can also generate subzero rain, though at the moment itâs not something sheâs very good at, it drains her really fast and she can only do it in real small areas. Subzero rain is similar to hail, but when falling is liquid and then turns to ice when it makes contact with anything, it is best used to coat areas in thick and solid layers of ice.
Weakness:
Millie cannot endlessly use her abilities, and if she overuses them she is prone to fainting, and sleeping for days. The larger the area of weather she is manipulating the less powerful the weather is, for instance making it sunny over a whole country would take the same energy as generating a powerful blizzard over her town. The more natural the weather she is generating the easier it is, for instance in would take little effort to create fog on an overcast day, but a lot of effort on a sunny day with not a cloud in the sky. Using two abilities at once means she gets drained twice as fast.
Millie is also not immune to weather, so for instance when she generates rain, she gets wet along with everyone else, and itâs the same for all the weather she generates.
Her abilities are while powerful, are very hard to control, and after generating a weather she can only choose when to stop it, and so it effects everyone equally with her being able to specifically target anyone. The only thing sheâs been able to teach herself how to control is lightning, she can direct them at people, though only small bolts of lightning, like touching an electric fence. Her generated weather also is prone to getting out of hand, seeming as she cannot control it well, and often times her powers end up damaging things and people as well as sucking up all her energy.
Strengths:
Millie has a really good ear for music and is an avid guitar player. She has been playing since she was 7 and will practice for hours on end, not to get better but because she enjoys it, hence she is pretty good at it.
Millie is great at finding things, donât ask how but itâs like she has a locator for things, and if anything is lost sheâs generally the one to find it. Sometimes she isnât even looking for it.
Flaws:
Millie is a horrible cook, she has literally burned or destroyed everything she has ever tried to cook, her family hardly even let her into the kitchen anymore. Millie is not very brave, she doesnât get scared real easy but when she is scared of something she refuses to go near it or do the activity.
She is also terrible at telling jokes, she usually misses the punch line or gets it wrong. Though she doesnât quite realise it as all her friends tend to laugh at the delivery making her feel like she is hilarious. Sheâs also terrible at comforting sad people, it usually ends in a few awkward comment and then sheâll do or say something completely inappropriate.
Millie also isnât very good at school, she is currently scraping by with barely a pass. She tends can do things for hours on end if she enjoys them, and well school and study do not come under the category of things she likes.
Personality:
Millie lives in the here and now. She neither hangs on to the past, nor plans for the future, rather choosing options that have immediate gratification or effects. She lives in the moment because she realises thatâs really the only things she has that has real meaning. She takes each day as it comes, not wanting to live a life full of rules and expectations. Millie refuses to feel tied down, she loves living each day her own way with no obligations. Though this tend to make her a bit of a rule breaker, whether these rules being the school rules or less authoritarian rules of social conduct.
Her life is very much centred on herself, not that she is selfish but rather introverted, her thoughts and beliefs tend to be focused inwardly. She creates and develops her own beliefs and code of conduct, and will stay true to it, even though it is always changing and she grows and learns new things. Though her own ethics and beliefs donât necessary match up the majority of people. She isnât boastful and when asked quite outwardly modest, but she is in inwardly confident and self-assured. She is happy with her life and feels as if there is nothing that needs to be changed. She is confident in her place in the world and has happily carved out her own niche. Millie tries to live her life believing anything is possible, removing all form of doubt from her thinking, it isnât like she believes in miracle, but she believes in herself and that is almost as good. She is also quite an optimist, she isnât against being who are pessimist, and doesnât believe other should always look for positives, but rather it is a value that she holds herself to.
Socially, Millie is a bit of a loose cannon, one day she can shower a new acquaintance with compliments and be completely sweet and courteous, yet on another day she be aloof and detached. She would never go out her way to be mean or upset someone, but she will not change her mannerisms or mask her feelings or thoughts for another person. She a little weird and refuses to conform just to make other feel comfortable, she is what she is, take it or leave it. Though if she tries she finds it easy to bond with people, and can easily highlight what they have in common rather than the differences they share.
Millie is a kind and compassionate friend and tends to make friends from all walks of life, she is not superficial and will love people for who they are. Though she will never go out of way to make a new friend. If she gets along with someone and they fit into her pace and daily life, then fine whatever, theyâll be friends, but she wonât steer away from how she wants to spend her day to hang out with a friend. And if a friend of hers grows distance and perhaps she doesnât see them anymore, all her friends now not to trust her to try and bridge the friendship. She honestly doesnât mind time spent alone. While she has a strong personality, she lives without the desire to lead or follow someone else, rather she feels most alive when she is left alone to dream and create.
Millie doesnât necessarily distrust people, but rather she only trusts what she learns from her own experiences. She is quick to doubt something she is told and prefers to get out there and make her own mistakes and âfeelâ her way through things with someone trying to tell her what to do. She also learns new skills and abilities through hands-on experience, and she knows this how she learns best which leads to her willingness to experience new things. Millie will investigate anything that piques her interest in her hearts content, she believes it a tragedy to leave any stone unturned. She almost always has to be moving and is happy to get on a road that seems interesting no matter if she doesnât know where it may lead. Though her constant growth through experience leads her to frequently change her mind, her first reaction is rarely her final verdict. She is always making changing her views, beliefs, path and thoughts, she sees change an integral part of life.

History:
Millie was raised in a typical Benjamin family. Her father could control wind and her mother could control water and they grew up together and then eventually got married and had four girls. The eldest daughter, who at 8 years old manifested the ability to control wind following in her fatherâs footsteps. Next they had Millie and then twin girls. Millieâs youngest sisters both developed the ability to control water at 8, yet, Millie, 10 years old at this point was still yet to show any sign of developing a power. For a few years, Millie would watch her father teach her older sister about controlling wind, and her mother her younger sisters about controlling water. Both her parents had begun showing their abilities at 8 and so by Millieâs 14th birthday, her family held little hope of her ever gaining powers, and neither did Millie.
Her 14th birthday had been outside, it was a perfect and sunny day with zero chance of rain, and Millie had spent the whole day in a bad mood. She had told herself for months that she would get powers on her thirteenth birthday, she was certain that sheâd just wake up with them. Alas though that day Millie had woken up still powerless, she couldnât control wind of water. She was miserable looking ahead at a life being the outsider of everything, never taking part or understand anything to do with abilities. Then right there in the middle of the day, the sky turned from perfectly sun to dark, and it just suddenly began pouring down with rain. That was the first time Millieâs powers showed themselves. She had gained both her parents powers of wind and water, as well as some new ones. Though while her abilities were more powerful than her sisters this is counteracted by her lack of control over them.
Because of her past, Millie knows exactly what having no powers and being an outsider feels like so she truly treasures and values her powers, never taking them for granted. She is also always practising, always improving and creating new tactics with her powers, not because she really aims to improve but it is something she enjoys doing. She loves her abilities, and sees them as an integral part of who she is. It is this reason that despite being one of the last people to develop powers, she was able to climb the hierarchy quite easily and rapidly, and is now no. 5.
