Physical Description:
If someone was filling a blank canvas of vibrant hues, all shades of the rainbow, but had accidentally, right in the middle of their artwork, created a black smear, then that smear would mar and taint the work. On the face of society, much like that ruined piece of art, is also a smear, a flaw, an imperfection. That smear is known as Midna Silvera. Throughout her whole 16 years on this planet, Midna has always been quite noticeable. Whether it be in appearance or academics, personality or power, family or fortune.. orphanage or home, she never seemed to quite blend in with the "normal" crowd. Though.. one look and many see the reasons why. Reaching a petite height of 4 foot 11, Midna is far shorter than most of, or near, her age.."doll-sized" as her height is branded. From the back perspective; Midna's appearance looks to be beautifully similar to that of an Oriental China-doll; a delicate silhouette outlined with a cascading, low-back reaching waterfall of an ebony-hue that, when caught in the sunlight in the most perfect of ways, shines with a brilliant eggplant tint. However, when facing forwards is when one glimpses her true beauty.
The stark bangs have been styled, rather bluntly, to lay straight across her small forehead. With the longest bit barely brushing above her eyes, an air of constant maintenance radiates off Midna as clear as heat rising from asphalt during the days of summer. Moving onto her facial features, Midna is your stero-typical doll-esque luminous pale, not a single blemish or rash pigmentation, save for the opaque rosy blush gracing her cheeks, marring the porcelain surface. However, the tone is paled to an alabaster due to the stark contrast those midnight frames provide. Overall, every last detail on Midna's face holds remarkable similarities to that of a doll: flawless, delicate and inhumanely perfect. However, there is one distinguishing feature that sets Midna out from others of Oriental descent; her pair of large doe eyes. Framed by a thick curtain of dark lashes, Midna's eyes are mesmerizing in their varying shades bright crimson...it's almost as if someone had placed droplets of their own blood on those orbs to provide color to them. Almost always, they seem to be unblinking.. staring into your soul and right through your facade. Often described by those who has made the misfortune of locking gazes with this embodiment of a doll, they are frighteningly entrancing. Coupled with high cheek bones, a delicate jaw-line, a petal-pink mouth, and perfectly shaped eyebrows; Midna holds an ethereal and captivating appearance.
On the note of her form, Midna possesses a rather fragile yet tempting shape. It, just as her facial features, mimics a china doll's body perfectly; equal proportions and flawless curves. The shoulders are slim, not too wide yet, at the same time, not too narrow, the neck of sloping beauty and grace. The bust is of satisfying voluptuousness, not too large for her form, and is harmoniously paired with a nipped and delicate waist. Overall, Midna's body is one of sensual feminine pull that often attracts those of the opposite gender.. however, keeping dignity in mind, she does't allow for herself to flaunt.
Scars/Tattoos/Piercings/Etc:
Midna has, not surprisingly, many Alice Limitations in order to help her remain at a "safe" and "functional" level. The most noticeable restraints that have been bestowed upon her are as follows: an onyx colored cuff on her right ear (much like Natsume's) that has flecks of blood red, a simple silver necklace with blood red pendant in the form of a teardrop, two black cartilage studs on her left ear and a simple black "collar" on her left wrist.

Alice Abilities:
- Shadow Manipulation: The summoning, creation, manipulation and command of beings made from manifested shadows/darkness. Using these creatures that take any form Midna wishes (be it an animal or a weapon), she can cause physical damage to her enemies.
- Shadow Barrier: Similar to Shadow Manipulation, Midna uses this power when she wants to create a shell or barrier around herself or her team mates. This ability, one of her more helpful and non-destructive, can withstand most attacks. Only those with strong alices (be it light-based or not) can cause it to fall.
- Shadow Dim: The ability to control the intensity of the absence of light around her and her shadows.
- Shadow Eyes: The power to experience whatever her creations experience through their own eyes.
- Shadow Phasing: This ability, perhaps the one that provides an everyday use, allows for Midna to pass 'teleport' through shadows. How do you think she gets to class on time everyday, despite waking up later than everyone else? Of course, she can not teleport outside of the school grounds.. she has her Alice Limitations to thank for that.
- Shadow Takeover: By far, this is Midna's most frightening ability. When activated, she enters a different form than that of her human state; a body made of complete manifested darkness. Of course, this means that her real body is actually put into a coma-esque trance. When in Shadow Take-over, her new state is not one of physical manifestation (nor aging) and will stay that way.. unless her true body is being damaged or killed. No one truly knows the full potential of this particular ability..seeing as the ones who have seen it were murdered (before she was bestowed with the Alice Limitations). But one thing is for certain...she doesn't have as many Alice Limitations as she does for fun.
- Her alice, obviously.
- The quick mind and sharp tongue she possesses.
- A rather sharp-bladed katana that was given to her by the Silvera Mafia family before she was taken away to the academy. Midna keeps it hidden in her room for apparent reasons.. Upon receiving it, the shadow-ess immediately modified it so that she could channel her powers onto the blade.

Talents:

- High Stamina: Going hand in hand with her agility training, Midna has also learned how to conserve her energy to the highest form possible.
- Eidetic Memory: Possessing a selective photographic memory, Midna can scan over blocks of texts then recite them.. that's how she also earns extremely high marks on her school work.

- Multilingual: When your family has connections in several different countries, you learn how to speak those languages. Primarily, Midna can speak both US and UK English, Japanese, Korean, French, Italian, some Spanish, German and some Russian.

Midna has never really been able to interact with other humans adequately nor has the urge to come her way. The lifestyle that was created by her new "family" taught her how to become anti-social, to shun the outsiders, and how large the cruciality in the refusal to convey emotions truly is.. after all, it was essential for her survival.
At the first glance, the word most people might use to describe Midna is “odd.” No, she's not your perky, constantly happy girl that Mitsuki appears to come off as but is more of the withdrawn into her own mind, analytical type of female. Because of this, very few people actually know how to (or want to) talk and captivate Midna's attention with very few actually succeeding. Coupled with an intimidating aura, a frightening Alice, a Special Star and the label as a "Dangerous Ability", it's no wonder why "normals" are terrified of the raven-haired female. They just don't approach her, it's as simple as that.
Generally speaking, Midna is a very calm, solemn-looking individual with a distant, almost crazed, look gleaming in her eyes..but that’s not to say that she’s unfriendly (to her comrades that is). Sure, she may be plotting someone's demise or imagining a scenario that would curdle most's stomachs, but even she is friendly (at times)! Unlike most reserved people, Midna doesn't fully mind the other Dangerous Ability members.. in fact, she'll even try getting to know them for their mind and not their looks. Unfortunately, while she does manage to hold a conversation, Midna is usually fairly awkward to speak with. Unless the other party excels with their words, chances are there will be more than one uncomfortable pause or an abrupt subject change.
Another interesting point about Midna is that she tends to suddenly flip personalities on whim. Especially when angered or prodded by someone else's stupidity (yes, this includes the Teachers). Her mindset is quite the ambiguous one; for the most part she is a blunt, observant and withdrawn female...but this is all quickly masked and forgotten by others when they see her darker side. *when they say, Come to the dark side, this DOES NOT apply to Midna* The personality of her flip is that of a ruthless, merciless and calculating psychopath who has little, if any, problem in using others for her goals or for pawns. Without a shred of hesitation, Midna will resort to using her powers to end another's life.. in fact, she much enjoys the rush it provides.
On the note of her intelligence, she may appear to project an aura of "definiteness", of self-confidence. This self-confidence, sometimes mistaken for simple arrogance by the less informed, is actually of a very specific rather than a general nature; its source lies in the specialized knowledge of the world and how she was treated as a child. When it comes to her own areas of expertise -- and trust me, Midna has several -- she will be able to tell you almost immediately everything about that certain topic, to the extent of being ridiculously precise. Yet, despite this fountain of knowledge in her, she knows this important rule; She knows what she knows, and more importantly, she knows what she doesn't know
Bio:
Even as a child, Midna was pretty... abnormal. Well.. that's to be expected of Alice users, but even then. Everything from her looks to her personality, to the power she possessed screamed for wariness and guarded trust to be place in her. Anyways, the household Midna's fate led her to was rather violent.. what else could you expect when your "father" is the head of one of the largest Italian mafias in existence? However, lets go even further back, shall we?
Colette was born into the world by two non-Alices, by two normal people. Unfortunately, Colette’s real mother passed on a few hours after giving birth to their ‘bundle of joy’. Even so, before she was due, the poor woman had extreme complications with her pregnancy.. complications that surpassed anyone's expectations. Of course, this more likely than not could have been caused by the infant's abnormality, by the possession of her Alice. Thankfully, a healthy baby girl was brought forth into this world on, perhaps, one of the oddest days; the winter solstice (December 21).
Colette's birth-father was beside himself, consumed by grief at the loss of his dear wife. Soon enough, his laments turned into ones of hateful spite, of self-pity.. Then finally, one night after Colette was fast asleep, he had decided, as punishment for his daughter's taboo existence, to disconnect himself from the world. When little Colette, only 4 years of age, woke up, she found a gruesome sight. This death was the first of many that would occur within the her twisted future.
Growing up in the orphanage, a chaotic and bustling environment, Colette never quite fit in with the other children. She always off in a corner, consumed by her own thoughts, the need for human comfort never really making it's presence known. But, deep down, there was another reason why this raven-haired girl never interacted with others; she held powers beyond mortal imagination. And, while the other children and workers couldn't place it, people feared this sullen child. Of course, this fear was not only due to her unnatural looks but to the intimidating aura, an aura that screamed danger to a normal person, that radiated off her very being.
The first 10 years of Colette's life was actually spent hidden in the sea of children, in the orphanage. Together, yet separated. However, her time there far surpassed the normal expectancy.. it appeared no one would dare adopt the child that seemed to be cursed. But then it happened, an event that would forever alter the course of her life. One day, as the 10 year old girl was wandering about in an idle manner in the streets, she had accidentally collided into a mountain of a man. Terrified at his rough appearance and the outrage that made his voice quiver, the Alice's powers suddenly activated. From the shadows, a snarling beast, the eyes a red-hot glow, sprung up in front of it's master. In his terror, the man fell to his knees as the creature vanished, leaving enough time for Colette to run.
Intrigued and horrified by what happened, the shaken underling returned to the GodFather to explain what happened. As goes without saying, the Leader of the Silvera Mafia felt curiosity overwhelm himself. Deciding rather quickly, this GodFather sent three of his men back to the orphanage with the demand to find the supernatural girl.
Of course, the workers tried to hastily explain that Colette was "different" and "not quite right".. and of course, the mafia minions refused to listen. After all, it was their Boss's direct orders to retrieve the girl. As soon as they came, they left.. with Colette legally under their charge. Of course, the shadow manipulator was quite wary of the strangers but.. a shred of her still felt exalted at the thought of someone wanting her.
Skipping forward through the span of 5 years, Colette was renamed, "Midna", and was respected as the GodFather's daughter. By this time, they already figured out her she was an Alice, that the Japanese Alice Academy would come searching for her.. but they refused to give in. It was also at this time that Midna first began to go on "missions" (she was well-protected of course). By the age of 15, the young teenager had dirtied her hands in killing several men with her Alice, as well as inflicting serious injuries.. she was far from being pure.
Unfortunately, a few days before she turned 16, the unspoken fear had transformed into a reality; A.A finally found Midna. Sensing the mafia that she loved so dearly wasn't going to give her up without a fight, Midna willingly enrolled into A.A. It was there, within a week, that Midna received a "Triple Star" and a slot in the "Dangerous Ability" class.
Thoughts on the Academy:
She hates the Academy but is also curious about it.
