Waking up in Vegas! (OOC And Signups)

Name
Mina Meurinoxt

Age
17

Personality
Mina is one of the most distant people you could fine, someone difficult to crack into. She's blunt. She's gentle. She's observational and cautious with a streak of sarcasm. You wouldn't expect her to speak very loudly, since she usually speaks in murmurs and whispers. She's sometimes unresponsive if she finds no need to speak, and will ignore you if she finds no interest in the topic, or the person in general. She avoids all conflict if possible, and prefers to stay out of arguments and problems.
However, she's not cold and ruthless, simply just quiet. In fact, the girl has a spot for tenderness and hospitality. But, just a bit...apathetic.

So yes.

She's the tough cookie with an inner gooiness deep deep down. Really deep down.

Other/BIO
Mina was born on a cold and bitter night of December 21, when the fog was thick and difficult to drive through. Although, as given earlier notice, her mother didn't recognize that her baby girl would be born one month premature, and out popped a tiny and frail infant. She was driven to the hospital immediately, but the fog was too thick to see anything, anywhere. And so, the hospital came to her. Brought through heavy medications, she wasn't thought to survive to celebrate her first birthday. But as if a miracle happened, she survived it, and by the age of 1, after her birthdays, it was declared that was was strong enough to begin taking pills and medicines to keep her healthy, so if she takes them for at least ten years, twice per day.

And Mina did just that.

She was kept indoors for the whole time, forbidden to go outside after school to play, as much as she wanted to. She was usually confined to the mansion, with the exception of heading out to the porch for some fresh air. How she remained skinny to the bone without that exercise, she didn't know. She was scrawny, bony, and was constantly made fun of, a teasing target by the other students. This carried on for six years, from the first day she stepped into kindergarten up to grade 6. Mind you, Mina was an intelligent and open girl, just nobody seemed to care. As her grades rose, her social status seemed to fall, and then she was deemed a 'nerd' or 'geek'. Her wealthy parents were rarely home; they were always at work and left food on the tables for her. Although, on that fortunate 12th, lonely birthday, with a sight of the white teddy bear holding a lavender birthday card, she had to reread it three times to register.

Happy Birthday, Mina, and you must be wondering why we have left no big present for you this year. We've decided, both of us, that the best present is your life is now free. No more medicines for you, young lady! You can go out to play now, join sports, do whatever you want with your life. We're terribly sorry for your past years, we know it must have been miserable, but think about it. You're free now. Happy birthday honey, good luck.

Of course, it was difficult to redeem her status at school, but after winter break was over, she came to the new year with a fresh start and seemed to glow and shine with a certain mystical radiance no one else had. She grew even more insightful, intelligent, and into a beautiful girl. It took one year, yes, but by the time she was in grade 8, every genuine guy wanted her. Mina found the time to take some sports, when she wasn't playing music, and her body became curved and toned, finally finding signs of maturing after all those bare years before. Without the medications, she was a whole different person, and as high school began, she was one of the more popular girls in the crowd. She didn't hang out with the preps, it just seemed that everyone seemed to know, and love the quiet girl. Even when she barely spoke at all, didn't give a damn to the others, and was rather stoic, many people found that intriguing and sexy. Yes, she was rather aware of that, but still showed no sliver of emotion into it. As of today, now in Grade 12, leading what most would believe to be the perfect life, the only thing this cautious girl isn't wary of, is the reason why she preferred night over day, rain over sun, winter over summer, and HOW she could predict other people's actions and what will come out of their mouth.

Anyways,
she loves snowboarding,
her favorite season is winter,
has a thing for refreshing scents and flavors (i.e. mint),
and absolutely adores ice cream (especially double chocolate chip mint)
