DANIELLE CRAMER
"A good boyfriend makes it clear to everyone that you're his girl.
A good girlfriend should never give anyone a reason to think otherwise."
Iris - Sleeping With Sirens
"And I don't want the world to see me
'Coz I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's meant to be broken
I just want you to know who I am."
Full Name
"My name? Why do you care?" Her name is Danielle Cramer, she hasn't got a middle name. It wasn't considered important at the time of her birth.
Nickname
"I suppose if I have to tell you, call me Dani. It is the only thing I will allow others to call me, most don't even know my real name." Dani stuck with her since she was little, there was another girl in her class named Danielle and she didn't want to be a double. An added benefit is that she thought it made her sound more like a boy, and she is definitely one of the boys.
Gender
"That actually is rude... or ignorant. Are you blind?" Female, though she rarely acts it.
Role
"My role in this? Well I'm a Cramer, of course." Girl Eight, Brunette Ashley Tisdale
Appearance
"I think I'll have to go with the assumption of you being blind."
Hair
Her hair is the color brown, though many like to describe it as chocolate-y or even black because it's deep brown color almost can appear to be black. It falls straight, resting just a bit below her shoulders. Though sometimes she will choose to curl it, it takes quite a while though due to it's thickness, and she really is not all that patient.
Eyes
Dani's eyes are somewhat of a murky brown that she can't stand. The only thing she likes about them is the specks of gold that seem to float within them.
Body
She fits almost perfectly into the "petite" category, being just above five foot[ five foot one inch to be exact, though the world naturally rounds down ] and only a hundred and two pounds. Though, sometimes a turn off to others, she is rather pale. People used to tease her for being "white as a ghost", though she never minded it. The reason she has always been so pale is because she doesn't really like to go out in the sun, she much more prefers the night. As you can see from the picture on the right, she isn't necessarily "strong". You can even see her ribs somewhat.
Style
Most girls go out of their way to look "pretty" for guys, right? This girl is probably the complete opposite, she chooses to be comfy rather than be whore-y. You'll rarely catch her in a skirt, actually she doesn't even own one. Though you'll also rarely catch her with pants on, unless in public. She prefers to wear longer shirts[ longer, heh, just long enough to cover everything ], often old band tee shirts or even some of her brothers button down shirts. When she does have to wear pants though, you can usually find her wearing skinny jeans of any color or sometimes even shorts, though she doesn't really like wearing shorts either. Shoes are usually combat boots or skate shoes[ DC's, Van's, TH ]. Also she tends to wear a lot of hoodies in public.
General
Dani probably comes off as somewhat of a tomboy. She sits with her legs spread wide, or sometimes she'll lay in a seat and put her feet over the back of it. This girl can curse like a sailor, yet at the same time sound utterly intelligent. Most of the time though, you'll find her in her room, curled up on the window seat with a book and her iPad, listening to whatever screamo or indie music she pleases without earphones so the rest of the house can hear. Mainly she looks innocent though. Like a little kid almost, definitely not like she should be involved in all the current happenings. And she really isn't, she doesn't do drugs and she's never had sex, the only violence she associates with is the stuff her family tells her to do. She isn't one to purposefully cause trouble or go looking for a fight.
Likes
"Nothing princess-y, if that's what you were thinking." Dani likes a lot of things, well a lot of silly things. She likes to play pranks and laugh, run around the house singing and dancing until someone literally has to hold her to get her to calm down. Candy is a god, though she really shouldn't have much of it because she gets hyper way too easily. To be more serious though, she likes to read and write, if you're lucky you may catch her playing guitar or singing, though she really only does that for FC: Lachlan. Something she would never admit is that she likes to cuddle or be held, touch is a really big thing for her, as in she'll crawl all over people or try and sit in their laps, though it's so innocent and playful that it can't be really thought of as anything other. Lastly she loves the rain, her dreams are to be kissed in the rain and dance in the refrigerator light at midnight, sounds like a Taylor Swift song, right?
Dislikes
"Girls! They are so bitchy." Obviously she isn't too fond of her own gender, though there is multiple reasons behind that. She doesn't like relationships, they terrify her. Being serious is boring, sitting still is impossible, and she can't stand her sister. Dani can't cook for the life of her, if it can be burnt it will be. Sometimes she will be teased for being skinny or anorexic, and she really can't stand that. Crying, that's a pretty normal thing to dislike, and she hates people seeing her cry. Other things include her insomnia, and the nightmares that haunt her when she actually can sleep. She doesn't like people who abuse animals, especially since she doesn't want to image her Husky, Ace, ever being hit.
Fears
"What am I afraid of? You're funny, I don't feel fear." Like any other human being, Dani fears rejection. Things that she fears that most adults probably don't include the dark, or mirrors at night. Any sort of scary movie frighten's her, even if it's supposedly PG 13 or whatever. One of her biggest fears is her siblings being hurt or dying, those surprisingly she does not fear death herself.
Personality
Dani's primary mode of living is focused internally, where she deals with things rationally and logically. Her secondary mode is external, where she take things in via her five senses in a literal, concrete fashion. Dani has a compelling drive to understand the way things work. She's good at logical analysis, and like to use it on practical concerns. Typically having strong powers of reasoning, although she's not interested in theories or concepts unless she can see a practical application. She likes to take things apart and see the way they work.
Dani has an adventuresome spirit. She is attracted to motorcycles, airplanes, sky diving, surfing, etc. She thrives on action, and is usually fearless. Dani is fiercely independent, needing to have the space to make her own decisions about their next step. She does not believe in or follow rules and regulations, as this would prohibit her ability to "do her own thing". Her sense of adventure and desire for constant action makes her prone to becoming bored rather quickly. Although she does not respect the rules of the "System", she follows her own rules and guidelines for behavior faithfully. She will not take part in something which violates her personal laws.
Dani likes and needs to spend time alone, because this is when she can sort things out in their minds most clearly. She absorbs large quantities of impersonal facts from the external world, and sort through those facts, making judgments, when she is alone. Dani is an action-oriented person. She likes to be up and about, doing things/ She won't sit behind a desk all day and do long-range planning. Adaptable and spontaneous, she responds to what is immediately before her. She usually has strong technical skills, and can be as effective technical leaders.
She does not pay attention to her own feelings, and even distrust them and try to ignore them, because she has difficulty distinguishing between emotional reactions and value judgments. This may be a problem area for her.
When she is over-stressed, she may exhibit rash emotional outbursts of anger, or on the other extreme may be overwhelmed by emotions and feelings which she feels compelled to share with people (often inappropriately). When down on herself she will foray into the world of value judgments - a place which is not natural for the her - and judge herself by the inability to perform some task. Dani will then approach the task in a grim emotional state, expecting the worst.
But Dani is excellent in a crisis situations. She is good at following through with a project, and tying up loose ends.
Power
"That's personal." Atmokinesis, the ability to manipulate the weather around her. It has a radius of two miles though, meaning she can't control the weather out of her little bubble. Though she can reduce the distance, meaning if she wanted to make it literally rain on just one person, she could.
Weaknesses
"I don't have weaknesses." She also can't control it if it gets out of hand, like if she tried to create a tsunami or tornado. It also causes her to have great headaches and also causes her to not have much of an appetite, which is why she is so skinny. This will help you understand it's full effects.
Relations
"Love? It's a superstition. The only love I believed in was when my mother was alive, now that bitch has replaced her."
âĸ Boy Six: He's my best friend... seriously, I feel like I can be or say anything around him. He makes me feel free, happy. I can't believe I'm lucky enough to have such a great friend.
âĸ Girl Five: We're awesome together. Leave us alone in the same room for more than five minutes, and you'll probably have a house on fire. The only thing that doesn't thrill me is her job, but she knows that and I guess it's fine. If I could, I know I would try and... make her not do that.
âĸ Girl Seven: Well, she's my twin, so obviously we have our ups and downs. But I'll always be there for her if she needs me.
