Full Name: Dawn Evelyn Memoli
Nicknames/Aliases: N/A
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Species: Human (Gifted)
Original Canon: Dawn hails from a world where the Age of Gifted rules, and is torn apart by the conflict between two superpowers. The young woman is a member of the Wanderers, a splinter group that wants little to do with the conflict, and merely wishes to survive.
Description: Being a teenager girl, Dawn isnât exactly the most physically formidable. Clocking in at around 4â9â when in boots, her build is more slight than anything, with little muscle mass to speak of asides from that on her legs. Her body is made up of still-developing curves, although these tend to be hidden beneath the loose-fitting outfits she prefers to wear over others. She has thick, raven black hair that falls to her hips, ashen grey eyes, and pale skin, giving her an overall monochrome appearance.
Dawnâs typical outfit consists of a pair of plain denim jeans, boots, and a long-sleeved shirt. Above this, however, she has taken to wearing a dark grey jacket, which is often left completely zipped up. She has a tendency to slip her hands into her pockets when thoughtful, nervous, or excited, and another habit of fidgeting.
Personality: By nature, Dawn is a gentle, maternal soul, opting for more pacifistic approaches if possible, and harboring a strong dislike for getting her own hands dirty. She can be a tad quiet at times, preferring to listen and empathize with others instead of focusing too much on herself. Sheâs fairly modest, and has a tendency to get flustered with the right questions or comments. However, in spite of these factors, sheâs also surprisingly cunning, putting careful thought into her actions and the resulting reaction. Dawn is fiercely protective over those she holds dear.
Skills/Powers: Dawn is a Mental Manipulator, meaning that she has control over a spectrum of abilities spanning under workings of the mind. This ranges from basic telepathy and the power to read minds, to being able to control a personâs very thoughts and body; although the latter tends to put quite a drain on her and her energy. Even further, her abilities are limited depending on how far she attempts to push them. For example, while she is able to read minds in a fairly broad radius, the more minds Dawn attempts to work with, the less control she has; meaning that people can easily slip from her control, blocking out her influence. The stronger the ability Dawn attempts to use, the more limited it is. Currently, Dawn also has a developing Dark Elemental Gift, although at its current stage, it doesnât allow her to do much other than perform basic parlor tricks.
Besides her Gift-related skills, Dawn is also quite the diplomat, and has a knack for reading people even without using her power.
Weaknesses: Given the fact that she relies more on flight and her Gift in a confrontation, Dawn is physically weak and can be overtaken easily without her ability. If someone was able to bypass her abilities or take her off guard, she can be taken out without much trouble. She also has a crippling fear of fire, and will lock up or panic in the face of larger flames. Besides this, Dawn tends to bottle up her own feelings or worries in favor of addressing those of others, and is somewhat of a control freak at times.
Brief History: Dawnâs earlier years were spent living with her parents and brother in a pleasant, developing town. She was raised into her now-prominent pacifism, and was genuinely happy. However, when her family refused to swear allegiance to one faction or the other, their home was destroyed, and her parents killed in the blaze that followed. At the age of eight, she began her life in the wastelands, soon finding herself alone after being abandoned.
Thankfully, it didnât take long for another to find her- a fellow orphan-, and together, both survived for several years. The two eventually parted as well, leaving Dawn alone until the age of sixteen, where she met another wandering soul and joined him, forming the early Wanderer group. Currently, she is still very much a member, and works with the group to provide some sense of stability during the war.
