More In Depth
Looks:Brooke has black hair and greyish-blue eyes. She often likes to get different colored highlights in her hair and has an eyebrow piercing. She also has snake bite piercings and a naval piercing(both of which she has to take out during performances).
People would describe me as being: aggressive, intense, quiet, sarcastic, blunt, morbid, and secretly caring. Brooke tends to use her personality as a barrier between her and others. She likes to be quiet and alone, staying in the background and watching others. Brooke has an extreme interest in horror movies and gore and is know for her horrible pranks on the other performers. When she first got to the carnival her personality was extremely intense and stayed that way for her first few years but once she started dating The Hot One she mellowed out a bit, finally trusting someone else enough to let them into her life. With The Hot One Brooke is quieter and more manageable, sometimes even happy when she's with him. Since they started dating she has opened up to the others as well, though not being mean she is still far from nice, her sarcasm and bluntness still her most prominent features.
I ended up here because: I ran away. I was born into a very strict, Italian-Norwegian family. My parents had just recently immigrated into the United States when I was born. With her mother being a Christian and her father believing the old Nordic myths there was much controversy over how she should be raised. Her father believed that she should be taught how to fight and how to be independent while her mother believed she should be raised to be a wife and a mother. On the other hand the one thing they both agreed on was no boys, especially not one they didn't approve of. Despite this Freyja ended up getting a boyfriend and falling in love with him but her parents refused to let her date him. Because of this she ended up leaving home at 18 and going to live with her boyfriend who promptly broke up with her after they had sex for the first time. Unable to stomach going back to her parents and refusing to beg for her boyfriend to take her back Freyja got a job, saved up some money to move. About a year later her only friend, Rebecca, convinced her to go to a carnival with her and a small group of people since she was supposed to leave the next day, planning on moving to California. At the carnival she was amazed by the performances and the acts but eventually she got bored and convinced her friend, who was older, to buy her a few drinks. A while later that night she found out Rebecca was dating her ex. Slightly buzzed and pissed Freyja got into fight with Rebecca, knocking her out after she made a nasty comment and when one of her supposed friends tried to stop her she caused a scene, kicking and screaming, catching the attention of the owner and his wife who then gave her the option of joining or getting arrested. She chose to stay and picked a new name for herself, not wanting anything to do with her old life.
My relationships with the others:
The Powerful One: At first their relationship was rough, the two of them often getting into fights and screaming at each other for anything from a comment she made to a customer or for one of her pranks. Currently Brooke's disposition is to ignore Jade as much as possible, only listening when she has to.
♥♥♥♥♥The Hot One: Brooke and Luke have been dating a little less than a year. Originally Brooke had ignored him completely but after an accident during♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥their act Brooke secretly went to visit him, worried, and a short while after they started dating. Over the last year Brooke has slowly been opening up♥♥♥♥♥ to Luke, and has been letting him try to push her to be more social able despite her lack in interest of being so.
The Regenerating One: Brooke and Alexa have never had a problem and was the first person Brooke started talking to once she had joined. Because of Alexa's ability Brooke often had her help with her pranks on the others. Though she wasn't exactly ever nice to Alexa she was the only one that Brooke wasn't a complete bitch to before she changed.
The Telekinetic One: Since Arkhan joined the carnival willingly Brooke was extremely wary around him, especially since he was male. Once she found out he was gay she seemed to relax around him a little more, and stopped pranking him all together since she one time caught him crying and realized he was quite sensitive.
The Strong One: Brooke has always been completely neutral about Ryder, not disliking or liking him. Despite his power Brooke has never been afraid of Ryder and tends to roll her eyes at the thought of him being a threat. Though she does play the occasional prank on him she generally leaves him alone.
The Flexible One: Matthaus' arrogance has always annoyed Brooke so she thoroughly enjoys pulling pranks on him, especially when it involves ruining his appearance since he tends to get extremely pissed when she does so.
The Colorful One: Since Kaylee was only 6 when Brooke joined she relatively left the girl alone, mostly ignoring her completely. As the girl grew up Brooke was somewhat nice to her as long as the girl kept the fact to herself which she did. Now, Brooke treats Kaylee like a younger sister, tormenting and teasing her while at the same time being secretly caring and somewhat nice.
The Influential One: Once Brooke found out about Catalina's ability she avoided her at all costs though often watching from afar. When Brooke realized that she didn't use her powers on other performers and got to know her a little. She did play a few pranks on her but refrained from torturing the other performer, realizing that the other woman seemed to accept her despite her flaws.
