Description
Name: Edie
Freak no.: 7
Freak name: The Human X-Ray
Age: Seventeen.
Gender: Female
Description: Edie is a small, slight young woman with a rather compact build. She tends to wear rather baggy clothing and covers up as much as possible to due to her appearance. Her hair was a dark brown colour, though of late that's gotten mottled by patches of a greenish-white hue. Her eyes are wide and a pale green colour. Certainly the most noticable feature that Edie has is the 'freakishness' she's inherited, in that it's made all her skin and muscles see-through. As a result all her bones and organs are quite visible through her skin. Without all her layers of clothing she would look like a living anatomical diagram. ( Will submit a picture when have time. )
Personality: Edie is reasonably sensible, and tries to be a more responsible member of the freaks, however she is frightfully jumpy and a bit of a coward, tending to prefer hiding over fighting. She worries about the welfare of the other freaks, and those aorund her...though she would probably not be brave enough to defend them in a physical fight. She is also highly intelligent, though she rarely uses her intellect for anything.
Likes: Heights,
Strawberries,
Treefrogs,
The Dark,
Masks,
Graphic novels,
Dislikes: Bright lights,
Hot weather,
Being laughed at,
Agressive people,
Disney films (She used to quite enjoy them until she realized that the heroes were always beautiful and the villains were almost always freaks.)
Fears: Edie has a big fear of doctors, and a fear of rejection.
Equipment: None, other than her clothing.
Powers: The changes have created an odd side effect of making Edie extremely agile and acrobatic. It's been suggested that it's made her muscles less dense and heavy that normal, allowing her to be faster and climb easier than a normal human would.
Strengths: - -Edie is very frast, great at stealth, and able to get into areas most humans could not.
- Her skull-face can make her pretty intimidating to people at times.
- She is very analytical, clver and down to earth for most of the time.
Weaknesses: -Skin is very fragile and easily torn.
- Her internal parts are exposed to ultraviolet radiation due to her transparency, meaning direct sunlight begins to hurt after a while.
- Edie panics quite easily in fights and is prone to acting irrationally when they breka out.
History: Edie tends to keep her past under wraps as much as possible. She was a pretty ordinary girl from a fairly affluent family, until she developed a form of cancer, multiple myeloma...which then spread to her bones. It was so widespread that operating was going to be impossible...and the idea that a drug might be able to remove it all sounded like a miracle....however shortly after receiving it, not only did the cancerous cells deplete, but the ordinary cells started to undergo a massive change. Edie was left entirely see-through. Her parents were pretty horrified, and it soon became apparent that whilwe they could handle their child dying..they couldn't really handle her looking like a walking skeleton. It was too alien and strange. She was discharged into foster care...but soon became rather disillusiuoned with that. Eventually she ended up at the Freakshow to try and find people who she wouldn't feel like an abomination around.
