ABILITY:
{ Air Manipulation }
She uses the air around her in a variety of ways. Perhaps the most infamous use she has for it comes from her deadly ability to remove the air from a person's lungs. Essentially she has the power to steal someone's breath away effectively killing them swiftly and silently. A much rarer and more complicated use for this ability is the resuscitation of the dead. While a powerful ability the many restrictions on it and the lack of use for it in the facility means Ember has rarely had the opportunity to use it. Her particular air manipulation has also been used to ensure accuracy for thrown items. Using varying currents of air around an object allows her to find her target every time whether it be a knife, arrow or some other form of projectile. Lastly she can project herself a lot faster than usually is humanly possible. In theory she could possibly assist another to move faster as well, though this has not been attempted.
{ Weaknesses }
Ember's seemingly all powerful abilities have many limitations and restrictions. In order to be able to kill someone through her unique form of suffocation she must be very close to the person's head, about 30cm away ideally. This is particularly important when it comes to concentrating on the completion of the act. If she is distracted by something such as pain either her ability fails her completely or simply renders the person temporarily unconscious for around five or so minutes. This being said through the continuous use of this particular ability Ember is struggling to keep it under control at times as it has become a reflex- anyone comes to close and automatically she starts to draw out the air in their lungs.
Her resuscitation is far more limited. It requires her to have recently taken the air from another. Her ability is also not an overly miraculous one as it follows similar patterns to CPR and can only bring someone back from specific deaths such as shock, heart attack, drowning and electrocution. Stab someone and it is well beyond her ability to bring them back for you. For both murder and lifesaving Ember's mouth must be unobstructed.
As for projecting objects and herself, many of its original obstacles have been overcome through training. For example both require a lot of skill and practice, both that have been acquired through repetitious trials in the facility. They also take up a lot more energy than a regular throw or run. Again training has built up her stamina and endurance, though not supernaturally. The final limitation of self-propelling is the reflexes. Narrow corners will quite effectively slow her down lest she wants to run into them.
{ Containment }
Ember has had a metal contraption forced upon her mouth in order to prevent her killing one of the staff. It is only removed once all staff are out of reach in order for her to complete whatever task they want from her. It covers her entire mouth and ends under her lower jaw. It fastens at the back of her neck with a key being the only way to remove it successfully wiring her mouth shut until the guards are safely away. As for her other abilities, obviously she never has access to weaponry unless closely monitored nor does she ever really have the freedom to move and allow her to speed herself away. Lastly, and perhaps the most effective, the promise of torture or death for her partner ensures she remains obedient.
PERSONALITY:
{ Past Personality }
Ember was once a sweet and gentle spirit. She was always considered quiet by most, preferring non-verbal communication to the spoken word. As such she often found it difficult to truly get to know another person. Most know her more by a quiet smile that lights up her eyes than actual knowledge about her personality. She always valued quiet companionship and silent presence rather than intricate conversations. This being said once she began to get to know a person she slowly began to reveal a little more about herself. It was often in small, simple sentences expressing a feeling or thought on various things that she believed warranted being bought up. She was a deep thinker, loving nothing better to sit quietly and ponder random aspects of life that were bought to her attention. Music was one of her most influential passions as she found that it spoke more to the soul than the verbal language people had come up with. It was a philosophy she often followed in her character; preferring to show her affection through action and practical help rather than words.
{ Present Personality }
Ember barely has anything left from what she used to be. Now she's cold and uncaring. From the reflective girl she once was now she tries to think only objectively focusing on the now and what is physically present. Her expressions are always harsh and rigid, matching her icy personality. To those around her she appears to have stone-like quality as though she was carved from marble. Unfeeling and detached. The facility workers are always treated with cold disdain, though never disobeyed nor questioned. Aside from the staff, anyone else will be subject to her dry humour and blunt criticism. She no longer shirks from speaking her mind and when everyone fears you or hates you, you might as well express your opinions as it won't hurt your reputation. Aside from her partner, she has no one left she cares about so there is no longer any need for mercy and kindness.
Sam is one of the rare few that have seen the other side of her. How broken and fragile she really is under her jagged exterior. For all the walls she builds up around herself, she can't run from who she really is. Her true self can't cope with the crimes that she commits so it's locked away inside of her. Occasionally it can no longer be contained and for a while no one will hear of the murderess until Sam's forced her to compose herself. But in those times she sinks into deep depression and loneliness, no longer managing to eat or sleep. She becomes merely a wraith and shadow of her former self, a wisp of the gentle girl she once was before her stronger, ruthless self comes to protect her once again.
{ Passions }
~Classical Music~
She particularly loves Stravinsky's Firebird, Petruschka and The Rite of Spring. She also loves Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet. She finds classical music expresses what words cannot.
~Playing the Piano~
She learnt from a young age how to play the piano. Though she hasn't touched those ivory keys for many years now, she has been seen to mime out the playing of various pieces in her cell when she thinks she is alone.
~Thunderstorms~
She finds the energy within the air at this time electrifying. Somehow storms make it so much easier to manipulate the air around her. The raw power of thunderstorms are both terrifying and exciting.
~Novels~
While spoken words have little interest for Ember, written literature takes on a new form. Books are a form of escape, intrigue and a well of knowledge.
~Edgar Allan Poe's Poetry~
Poetry has never really been of interest to her, however Edgar Allan Poe is an idol of hers from his various quotes to his gothic poetry.
{ Dislikes }
~Noise~
She doesn't cope with noisy, disruptive environments. They are far too distracting and overbearing for her taste
~Recklessness~
She doesn't deal well with people who rush into things without thinking. For her life is no game to be charging on from one thing to the other without carefully considering consequences.
~Science~
It is far too objective for her taste. It tries to explain things which she deems are unexplainable and in the process destroys whatever it touches. How can science possibly explain the intricacies of the way music touches a soul?
~Physical Activity~
Despite her ability, running has no appeal to her. She was never strong, and while her endurance has been forced to improve, the process has not been pleasant and comes across as pointless to Ember.
~People in General~
Aside from her partner, she now only sees the negatives of other human beings. All they seem bent on doing is hurting, hating or using her. So what use are they?
{ Weaknesses }
Firstly physically she's as weak as you can get. Beside her genetics never lending themselves for strength, the lack of food, sunlight and healthy mental capacity has always left Ember at a distinct disadvantage. On a more personal level Ember has never been able to trust people well, and since the facility this has only grown. She will never trust another, aside from perhaps her partner, to do something she can do herself. Her distrust has grown into paranoia always believing that everyone is out to personally attack her.
{ Fears }
Physical Touch
The only people that touch her within the facility are those that are going to hurt her or drag her off to do some detestable task. As such, anyone that reaches out to her is seen as a threat making her either panic and withdraw into herself or she will immediately lash out and attack her perceived enemies.
Mental Abilities
Ember is frightened of anything or anyone that can tamper with her mind. For her it has been her only solace; the only place where she will ever be in complete control. To have someone enter that private fortress has to be one of the worst fates she can think of. To be utterly at the mercy of another is to be to be defenceless to a sadist as she can think of no other reason for someone entering another's sanctuary.
Sam
While it seems fairly obvious, and almost all Anomalies fear him with intensity, Ember's fear of him has escalated to the extreme. She is terrified of him like nothing else and through her terror has mentally endowed him with the power of a god. In her mind there is no foreseeable way to evade him nor hide anything from him. He knows her far too well for her to have any defence against his sudden vehemence.
APPEARANCE:
Ember has always come across as very fragile and innocent in appearance, no matter what her reputation has put upon her. Despite the adjustment in personality, she still has soft facial features that give the overall impression of being delicate. Her eyes are perhaps the most mesmerising part about Ember. The irises change and adjust to her mental and emotional state. Most of the time her eyes are such a dark brown they appear black. However when sparked with anger they quickly flash red. The other main colour they have changed during the facility time is when they melt away to a light grey whenever she becomes fearful. For the last two years those are the only two that have appeared, though they do adjust to other strong emotions. Mostly Ember's mouth is kept in a hard line, devoid of any kind of emotion. However in better days the tips curled up in a small smile that extended into a warm-green coloured iris.
Her face is framed by her long, black hair. It reaches just under her ribcage and is dead straight. Due to the thickness near the roots it has a bit of volume at the top of her head but thins out as it reaches the ends. She has black bangs covering her forehead which are starting to reach her eyes.
Ember's complexion is white. An unnatural pallor that has been bought about by a mixture of pale skin genes and lack of sunlight. Once she would have been considered quite beautiful, however now she is painfully thin. Her collar bones stick out like knives and her ribs are very prominent. This hasn't been helped by her depressive periods where she refuses to eat. Her scarring is hidden at all times. For his own amusement Sam decided a Gothic feel would further enhance his twisted plans for her as an executioner. As such she is always dressed in black with high neck lined tops hiding the scars on her throat. Full black skirts are also common in the facilities wardrobe for her and she is never seen without gloves covering her wrists. She always goes around barefoot. Ember's posture only adds to her formidable reputation and dark clothing as she carries herself very upright, with a stiff upper back. This is due to deep tissue scarring restricting her movement.
{ Defining Features }
Her wrists are scarred from being put in restraints. From metal cuffs to rope, her attempts to get out of them only resulted in them cutting into her skin serving as a permanent reminder of various punishments. She also has a few very thin scars across her throat.
Far more prominent are the numerous deep scarring on her back. It's laced with criss-crossed patterned whip marks and a few burn scarring. The most obvious is the thick, pink puckered one that stretches from her left shoulder to her right hip. Needless to say her back is a mess. The deeper scarring that can't be seen has also restricted her movement causing her to be stiff-backed and have trouble twisting around.

THOUGHTS ON OTHERS:
{ The Rebels }
Ember's first opinion of the two rebels are on their stupidity. She cannot understand their mentality of understanding all too well the consequences of their actions and yet still running headlong into them. She herself has actually had to assist in teaching the pair a lesson. It was not one to be taken lightly. However from the rumours going around it appears that it hasn't fazed them. Beside the fact of what she considers their reckless foolishness, Ember secretly admires them. After all they have done what she and her partner have not- been able refuse the staff. She also knows deep down both are far stronger of will and mind then herself, as she was broken from one session with Sam and they have endured many. They have not allowed their link to one another to become a weakness. Lastly she fears being put with them. They have both the motivation and strength to hurt both herself and her partner. After having a personal hand in reprimanding them for an escape as well as having the blood of many of their kind on their hands, she fears that she and her partner may end up having to defend themselves.
{ The Compliant Ones }
She has a deep-seated hatred for the pair. It's all rooted from jealousy that she won't admit. How can those two have managed to stay together and escape from Sam's continuous punishments while she has had to she has had to give up everything to appease Sam and has ended up with nothing. She can't understand how they can so easily enjoy eachothers company without realising how much pain those surrounding them are in. Even though she has never met them she already fears that they hate and judge her and partner, despite the fact that really they are only doing the same as the other pair; submitting for the sake of the other. Only the cost of her and her partners obedience costs so much more than the compliant ones.
HISTORY:
{ Ability }
Ember was born with her air manipulation, however it remained dormant for many years. When she turned thirteen the air was suddenly a force that could be wielded. Her sudden feeling of a 6th sense scared her and her newly matured irises quickly faded to a light grey. After that the facility forced her to find out about the more specific parts of her ability.
{ Free Life }
Ember was raised by a single mother after her father died when she was very young from untreated throat cancer. Life was relatively normal for her and she was very close to her mother. When her ability final showed itself and her irises faded to grey, it caused her mother to panic. She immediately took Ember to the local GP to investigate the cause. Unfortunately many first Anomaly cases are first found through the health systems with any abnormalities reported to higher levels. Ember's strange irises was immediately reported as per policy to government through documentation. The Genetic Modification Facility was notified and it took only a few weeks for them to fully assess the situation from observing Ember at a distance.
Suddenly a mystery complaint was filed against Ember's mother for child abuse. Ember was taken from her abruptly and forced into the facility. To silence the mother she was taken to an interstate mental health ward. Ember is entirely unaware of what happened to her mother.
{ Facility Life }
Her first day in the facility was filled with basic medical testing, rough handling and overall a nightmare quality that at first seemed like it should vanish like the fog of a dream in the morning. Needless to say it did not. The next morning only came with another day in a barred prison-like cell. Sam visited her that day. He came in the form of a friend- a psychologist required to be there for her by law despite the horrible conditions. Terrified and having not yet heard a friendly word from a soul at the facility Ember slowly began to trust him. He spent many sessions with her counselling and supposedly helping her through the extreme testing routine they began developing for her.
This went on for about four years. During this time she met her partner (?). {Am thinking about having him as her neighbour in the facility so that's how they gradually go to know one another, but depends on person who plays him}
Then everything took another drastic turn for the worst. Up until this point Ember's literal breathtaking abilities had not yet been realised. One of the guards however had become drunk and decided to clock himself in for work. Not entirely in his right mind, against orders, he turned against her and started a beating. In absolute panic she had tried to flee from him, instead causing him to draw her close. It all happened extremely quickly; his head was suddenly too close to her own and then he was lifeless in front of her. It took her a few moments to realise what she had done. She spent the next few hours trembling in the corner of her cell waiting for them to find his body. It didn't take too long and as soon as Sam found out his friendly countenance dropped. He became malicious and sadistic dragging her up to the floor where the most deadly Anomalies were found.
He set up opportunities for her to 'escape' twice, only allowing her to get a few corridors before finding her. This quickly deterred her from attempting again. He used her partner to force her to kill more Anomalies and eventually taught her to torture them as well. There was one incident in what a young girl had begged her to kill her in Sam's absence in order to avoid his torture. After at first refusing, something snapped in Ember and in an instant the girl was lifeless before her. Since the girl had had information on a rebellion in a different facility, Sam was furious.
In response Sam punished her so severely he permanently damaged her back and left her scarred. Not liking the rest of the Anomalies to be able to see the marks of her disobedience and hint that she was not altogether as submissive as he liked to make out, he ensured they were always hidden by her attire. This way no one is aware that her obedience to Sam is forced. In their eyes both her partner and Ember are acting from self-directed obedience and perhaps inherent sadistic personality traits.

He set up opportunities for her to 'escape' twice, only allowing her to get a few corridors before finding her. This quickly deterred her from attempting again. He used her partner to force her to kill more Anomalies and eventually taught her to torture them as well. There was one incident in what a young girl had begged her to kill her in Sam's absence in order to avoid his torture. After at first refusing, something snapped in Ember and in an instant the girl was lifeless before her. Since the girl had had information on a rebellion in a different facility, Sam was furious.
In response Sam punished her so severely he permanently damaged her back and left her scarred. Not liking the rest of the Anomalies to be able to see the marks of her disobedience and hint that she was not altogether as submissive as he liked to make out, he ensured they were always hidden by her attire. This way no one is aware that her obedience to Sam is forced. In their eyes both her partner and Ember are acting from self-directed obedience and perhaps inherent sadistic personality traits.
