Name: Leah Edwards
Nickname: Leah, Lee
Age: (15-16)
Sign: Aquarius
Gender: Female
Height: 5'5
Weight: 9 st 2
Oddities: Wears headphones everywhere and at all times of the day, even sleeps in them and drinks coffee like it's going out of fashion.
Zodiac Abilities:
Hearing other people's thoughts
This is a totally new thing that Leah doesn't even realize is an ability yet. She's been hearing these funny buzzing sounds, not quite words but she feels like she could understand them if she tried. They are always there like static giving her a headache so she wears her headphones to soften the sound or blot it out completely when listening to music. This will eventually develop into being able to read peoples minds.
Influencing people's opinions
Leah has always had a way with people and she gets along with almost everyone, they sort of gravitate to her. She also has strong opinions and beliefs that not everyone agrees with. However people seem to start agreeing with her recently for no reason. She just thinks that she's been putting out a strong debate for her cause...This wont work on everyone however as the stronger a persons will is the less likely her influence will affect them.
Coercive Persuasion
Or mind control. Whichever way you slice it Leah has abilities that stop people from being able to think, move and feel on their own. This is down to her astrological sign. Aquarius are smart, geniuses to almost the point of insanity. They like to get their own way and feel very strongly about things. As a result of this Leah's mind has developed to a point where it can affect others. However, using your mind as a weapon per say is dangerous. The longer Leah uses her ability the more likely it is that she will have permanent mental damage. Also, people with a strong will are less affected.

Personality:
Leah is very intelligent, where some people have to study for hours she can ace tests without even having to try and doesn't quite understand what all the fuss is about with studying. She reads books of course and takes notes in class but it all just seems to stick the first time with minimal effort. But this doesn't mean she's lazy, she loves doing things. Doesn't have to be a specific thing but being stuck inside gives Leah a bad case of cabin fever which can end up getting on others nerves. She loves drawing and her room is often plastered with pages of various images that she drew or painted herself even though these images hardly ever make sense. When she's feeling down or lost you can find Leah in the water, swimming pools, the ocean if it's close and fountains if there's no other water source around. She drinks coffee constantly and is often hyper because of it and is prone to random outbursts of pointlessness. You will never see her without her headphones and coffee cup. Leah is really friendly and is able to get along with everyone. She has a big group of friends that she enjoys being around but sometimes she just needs downtime. Recently she's been separating herself from people more and more to stop the sounds in her head.

Bio:
Leah grew up with her mother, father and two elder brothers in England. They had a happy home but it was pretty pushy. Her parents are both over achievers who have come from middle class family backgrounds. They expect their children to do better than them as they were given a better start and are always pushing them to be better and compete against each other. Although she was the youngest Leah was the only girl so carried the weight of her mothers expectations. She was made to attend swimming, dance and singing classes, study until the small hours of the morning and get nothing less than A's in her tests. This pressure was the same for all three children. They were reward with materialistic things for success and punished harshly for failing. There was never any love or praise from their parents. Leah learnt to rely on herself because of this and sometimes struggles romantically but never with friendships. She gathers people to her because their praise makes her feel more worthwhile. Her parents were told all three of their children had the Zodiac gene but when it only began to manifest in one they punished her brothers. Leah's brothers are jealous and will do everything they can to bring her achievements down.
