Full Name: Amber Silex
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Date of Birth: 1989, March 8th
Tainted? Yes
Ability: Formidocetum- Amber can create people worst fears/nightmares by simply searching their minds to see what that is then creating powerful hallucinations of it happening to them. She’s gotten better now at being able to make the hallucinations last longer now, and they are very powerful in the sense that they seem completely realistic. With some practice she’s gotten better at hiding the fact that it’s her creating these illusions.
Beliefs: Amber got all her information on what she is from her grandmother and grandfather. After coming to the village and living here she now hates the Untainted. Considering them completely unworthy little vermin. They seemed so threatened all the time by what the Tainted can do, so now she’s giving them a real reason to feel threatened.



a p p e a r a n c e

Eyes: Dark brown, to the point of appearing black which is how she prefers it. Amber line her eyes with dark eyeliner and shadows, making them seem completely black, except in the light you still see the true shade of brown that they are.
Hair: With hair that reaches just slightly below the mid point of her back, and often in a bouncy curled style. Whenever Amber prefers to feel sophisticated or wants to appear more intimidating she will pull it back into a fancy bun. It’s a caramel colored shade of brown, with natural lighter high lights streaked through it.
Height: 5’6 and a half, not to big not to small.
Weight: She weigh 127 pounds, she’s not your typical 5’8 110 pound girl, because she has curves and isn’t bashful about them. So a little extra meat on her bones is just pennies in comparison.
Distinguishing Features:
Other: Amber has a very beautiful look. Her mother was part French, and her father was part Spanish and Irish. She has a well-sculpted body and doesn’t really look to keenly on losing her shape. She works out a lot, and eats the right foods most of the time. She is very pretty, with a wide smile that expands across her features. Her dark eyes pick up light reflecting off it well and seem to twinkle more often then not, people comment on that sometimes and it can be a little awkward.

Her attire is definitely not cheap. She wears expensive clothing and isn’t bashful about flashing price tags once in a while. Amber trys to look mostly professional and presentable. There isn’t a time when you will catch her without her make up and hair done, mostly because it’s not that intimidating. Years of leaning ‘about the business’ let her know exactly how to be taken seriously.

When she’s not trying to make someone feel threatened (as she loves to do) she actually appears rather ‘cute’ looking. She has somewhat bubbly features and smiles a lot. Other then smiling her features can at times remain blank, trying to not let any emotion show through.

The Good Points: Amber is a smart and savvy business woman. She knows how to get what she wants. If you on her good side then that can be very good news for you, if not then you’d just better watch out. She’s is extremely dedicated when it comes to getting what she wants and won’t take no for an answer.
The Bad Points: She doesn’t give second chances to anyone. You can beg and plead all you want but it won’t change her mind, she’s ruthless. She’ll walk all over you in a heartbeat so you’d be able to hold your own. She uses her powers very often so watch out because she’s only getting better.
Habits: Using her powers
Yelling
Rolling her eyes
Lies a lot
Will two-time you
Possessions/Obsessions/Other: The only real possession she cares about is power. Whatever form it might take as in money, people etc. If she has it and it’s all hers then that’s a very happy Amber. The only thing she might obsess on is getting more power in whatever way possible. She got a lot of this ‘power hungry’ thing from her grandfather and is thank full for it.

With being so obsessed all the time on power it leaves room for other things she wants in life. She’s never had an actual boyfriend, just many guys that she’s been with. Honestly, she really only knows what loves is because of her grandparents. But having someone that loves her as she is well that’s really just a fantasy in her mind. But there’s no time for that in her world right now. And anyone willing to put up with her had GOT to be completely insane. The only person in the world she cares about if her grandfather, so it’s kind of hard for her to imagine ever loving someone else.

History: March 8th, 1989 opened it’s arms to embrace a new baby. What they didn’t expect however was to be getting punished with this child. The ‘proud’ parents we’re not really the most suitable type to be having children, yet Amber was in their custody so it left them not real option other then to keep her alive, barely. Patricia Silex was a common waitress, she made barely enough money to support herself with that job so at nights she worked downtown in a strip club, that seemed to be enough money to give Amber food and clothes. Jeremy, her father, was a mailroom delivery boy, making on 6 dollars an hour. They we’re both young, Patricia being only 17 and Jeremy being 18 but they weren’t in love. The only logical reason they might have stayed together would be because of their parents wealthy status. The Silex family had a rich history as the owners of a massive corporation located all over the world. The company faced much public scrutiny for ‘killing the economy’ and ‘polluting’ but the made to much money and had to much power to ever try and be stopped. So, the children of that company (not literally related of course, but by marriage) had to at least maintain some honor or whatever it was they called the life they we’re living.

Amber was their only child they would ever have. After she was born both parties underwent surgeries to prevent ever getting pregnant again, a little bit of a slap in the face to their child but they didn’t care. Her entire life she was let know she was a mistake. When she was just born up until 5 months she remained in the ‘care’ of her parents. They would let her diaper go unchanged for day, she lost half a pound before she even started putting on wait. She wasn’t a pre mature baby but still when your only born 6 pounds 3 ounces, losing half a pound isn’t the best idea. Amber got very little sleep because she was constantly woken up by her parents coming and going at all hours leaving her unsupervised, parties that would be thrown where the most horrendous things possible we’re exposed to her eyes at that early age. 5 months of this. The only salvation was in the apartment tenets that took pity on her and would come in to change her, feed her, and look after her a little. Her rescue came after 5 months of living in the run down, mold infested apartment with two very neglectful parents, her grandparents came for a visit. They had been working for the past 5 months straight with non-stop travel, or at least that was their excuse. Their arrival came at a very good time, for Amber was choking on a whole grape she’d been given by her stupid mother who had absolutely no idea what else to feed her. After dislodging the grape from her mouth, her Grandmother, Naomi Silex was furious. The 50 some odd year woman was in her prime. She was absolutely fierce when it came to protecting her family. Her grandfather, Nathan Silex was upset too, but not nearly as infuriated as his wife. Naomi didn’t even bother packing up any of Amber’s baby things because she had none. She slept on a dog bed with blankets on it.

The first thing they did was bring her too a doctor, she was prescribed many things to help keep her strengths up, and fevers down. Then they went on a mad spending spree and spoiled her for the first time in her life! They bought all sorts of necessary baby things, and even the unnecessary ones. They took her back home to their large apartment over looking the city, and for the first time in the 5 short months of her life, she was home. Amber was cared for extremely well, although her grandparents weren’t always able to be the ones to look after her, they hired many great nanny’s to come in a take care of her. Her grandfather wasn’t that good with small children though so he remained a little distant. Naomi would rush home to go be with her little grand daughter and from living with her grandparents she knew what love was. This last until she was 7. Her grandfather, Nathan Silex had finally taken a liking to his grand daughter since she could actually talk to him and no just cry all the time. He enlighten her mind to the world of business. Sharing some very private information about the companies with her. He told her ‘one day this will all be yours’ and a new thought came to Amber’s mind. At 7 years old, January 9th, she realized she would one day hold power. (Not as in an ability!) The companies reached all over the world and generated a substantial amount of wealth. As Amber aged and Nathan grew more and more attached to his grand daughter he filled her head with more fantasies of owning her own company. Naomi wasn’t thrilled about the idea of her little grand daughter being a shark in the business world just yet anyway, at only 10 years old. But it was when she was 10 that a painful blast from the past began rearing it’s ugly head into her life again.

Patricia and Jeremy had somehow managed to stay together over the 10 years they we’re separated from their daughter. Although it’s no question on whether or not they remained faithful. They claimed to have ‘reformed’ or something during that time spent apart from their child. But no one understood the reason they wanted Amber back, when she was a baby they never even wanted to touch her let alone keep her! Amber had only been told very few things about her parents. The underlined point being ‘They weren’t fit to take care of you so we are looking after you and that’s that.’ It was Naomi own words. After hearing about ‘meeting her parent’s for a month long Amber eventually came around to the idea of meeting them, not staying with them but meeting them. The meeting couldn’t of gone more smoothly, and at the end a bombshell was dropped. Amber was asked to go upstairs, but of course she didn’t listen and just waited at the top of the staircase to ease drop on the conversation. It erupted down below! Everyone yelling at each other, Nathan perhaps the most furious of all. He loved Amber more then his own daughter Patricia, so the thought of leaving her in the care of completely irresponsible parents was out of the question. There we’re many over the phone arguments for the next years. And finally it had been taken to court. But it was during a break on the trial when Amber was 11 that her world came to a horrible turn. She needed to go to the bathroom and was old enough to not need an adult with her. While she was washing her hands she heard a murmuring going on outside the door. As she listened she heard her mother and father discussing how they intended to kill Amber’s grandparents. Amber had to cover her mouth to keep from screaming, tears streamed down her face. She discovered the only reason they wanted her was because they knew that Nathan and Naomi had changed their will, leaving all their wealth to her. As soon as they left the doorway Amber ran and told her grandparents who looked horrified, they promised everything would be alright and had Patricia and Jeremy we’re both arrested and sentenced to jail for 5 years.

Amber moved on with her life, she began to feel hate though. Hate for her two parents. When she was younger she supposed she might have hated someone else, but not in the way she hated her birth parents. As Amber aged her knowledge grew. She was smart, and very keen in the business world. Nathan had enrolled her in defense classes so that she could handle her own physically. The only thing now was that she was too emotional. She couldn’t hide or conceal her emotions nearly well enough. One day though Nathan realized just how big of an Achilles Heel this was, so this is when she met a man that would forever be burned into her memory. He was big, tall, dark, and deadly. An assassin. Now naturally Amber didn’t believe any of this, assassins existed in movies not real life. But he decided that he would take her on one of his ‘missions’, as he liked to call them, seeming far too much like James Bond for his good. When she saw him kill a man, a shot straight through the head yet another new thought occurred to Amber. She could be deadly. This thought didn’t frighten her as much as it probably should have, in fact in thrilled her a little to know how bad she could be. This gave her the motivation she needed to hide her emotions. Nathan made her swear she would never tell a soul, more importantly his wife, about what he’d exposed her too, to this day she hasn’t spoken a word.

5 years had passed since the trial and Amber’s parents we’re released from jail. They tried contacting her but she never replied. They we’re on probation too so they shouldn’t have been calling her at all. One day they went to far and showed up at the door step of her home. The security had obviously nodded asleep at that early hour. When Amber told them to leave the first thing they did was grab her and hit her on the head, knocking her out cold. When she woke up she was in a cellar, tried down to the bed. She was scared now, although it didn’t show. While there she was tortured severely, things she will never talk about happened, leaving behind many scars. Her parents wanted a ransom for her. After two days of silence finally Naomi caved and was willing to pay the ransom. Amber didn’t want her to do it, she wanted to fight against her parents, but then no one wants to stay a prisoner either. When Naomi arrived alone at the house with a sack full of money they ambushed her. Naomi was foolish in going alone. Amber was enraged by the amount of abuse they put her grandmother through, and begged for them to leave her alone, she would have willingly taken any punishment if it meant her grandmother didn’t have to endure it. No one was listening to her and she was furious. When no one was paying much attention to her she managed to get the knots loser and slid her hands out of the ropes tying them back, her wrists we’re bloody and sore but she did it. Then a strange thing happened. As she stared into the horror stricken eyes of her birth mother she saw her worst fear. Her mother was terrified of drowning, the next thing she knew there was water pouring and gushing in, coming straight towards Patricia. She screamed and grabbed her throat choking on nothing. Because it was only through Patricia’s mind that she saw the water, and of course Amber could see it too. There was still rage as she looked at Jeremy, his eyes begged for mercy but as he was still holding her grandmother, pulling her hair and causing her pain he saw none. She saw his fear too, needles. And he received many, he screamed in pain as one by one they pricked him. The sight of both her parents we’re almost to much satisfaction for her. Both Amber and Naomi left, leaving Patricia and Jeremy in pain and scream.

Amber never thought twice about it. These events we’re so strange and foreign they didn’t make sense at all! But Amber was so fascinated and inspired, yet terrified by them. This is when she heard about the tainted for the first time. Naomi slowly began spilling the truth out to her granddaughter. Naomi herself didn’t believe any of the legends we’re true, until she saw what Amber had done. They we’re unsure of how to proceed. Nathan needed to know, and Amber was going to be the one to tell him. After he heard the news he smiled, and told her everything was alright. Nathan Silex was tainted himself. He said he had the ability of Conjuring. He explained every detail to Amber, it took hours but when he was done she knew everything. Amber was always a little different after that, more confident then ever before. Had more knowledge and power then any one 16 year old should have. Nathan had explained to her that she was not to use her particular gifts unless absolutely necessary. It was better to be able to imply the threat with the power to back it up then bluff. She wasn’t strong and couldn’t practice. But that didn’t stop her from wanting to. The only people she wouldn’t use them on we’re her grandparents, everyone else was fair game.

After graduating high school Amber assumed she would be allowed to go straight to work side by side with her grandfather, but on the eve of her graduation things changed. The assassin that many years ago Amber had been following came looking for them. She was never sure why exactly. But he was responsible for killing Naomi. At this point it’s the precise moment when Amber broke down. Very single emotion she’d held inside, the powers she’d held up everything was coming out all aimed to him. His fear was heights. So she made him see himself as high up as he would be able to still seeing the ground so he knew. Then she let him fall. Before his hallucination ended he blacked out into a coma. ‘Hell hath no furry like a woman scorned?’ But this wasn’t a very smart move on her part, because there we’re witnesses that would gladly go tell the press. She was forced to leave, Nathan stayed back to care for his companies and make sure that his wife’s killer NEVER woke up. He sent her to a foreign country, foreign town and foreign people. She never resented him for it. But she needed someone to take her frustration out on. When she arrived in the town she quickly picked up on the vibe, and now despises the untainted. She uses her gifts on them quite often, and her powers have only gotten stronger…

RP Sample: It’s a HIJA one!

Kristin took it upon herself to create her own mischief amongst the students of Hogwarts. How she craved the rush from her own little antics. While other classmates we’re in the library ferociously tackling the mountains of homework they would have, or out on the grounds with their friends, or maybe warm and cozy up in their dorms, she had other plans. And it didn’t necessarily require any magic, just a little bit of flirting on her part, that was all, okay and maybe just one little spell or two. But that’s all!

So there she stood in the hall of the castle, the castle seemed to just mold itself into the perfect setting for her little crime. Kristin was chatting up some 7th year Slytherin boy. The two had been talking for nearly 15 minutes now. And it seemed as though things we’re going just as she had planned, honestly some boys just couldn’t refuse a pretty smile, but of course it was implied that there would be some more action to follow behind the smile. “Say, why don’t we go in here to chat a little more? No one’s going to catch us if we hurry.” She said smiling, looking towards an empty classroom door. By the look on his face it almost made her want to gag, or burst out laughing, but still she managed to keep on a seductive, teasing smile. “Kay.” He said, sounding as though he almost ha to force the word out, was it possible that he was actually nervous? It appeared so. That was just to funny.

She walked behind him into the classroom, smiling at his nervousness, but when he looked back to check that she hadn’t run off he flirty smile was back. He walked over to the second desk closest to the door. His leg was bobbing wildly, he looked really nervous but he had what was coming to him. After all she saw him and one of his ‘buds’ picking on a third year Gryffindor a week or so earlier. Payback is a bitch, “Are you nervous?” she asked, her voice coming out smooth as ice, as she stepped less than a foot away from him. “No.” he lied, trying to keep a somewhat smug little smile on his face. Out in the hall he seemed oh so confident. Guess he couldn’t live up to his image like he wanted to, huh? “That’s good.” She smiled, leaning in towards him just slightly away from his face. Soon his lips mashed into hers, rather suddenly, there was no subtlety in his approach whatsoever.

He didn’t taste the best to stay the least, but he wasn’t a half bad kisser either. Although the kiss was a little, wet. Things began to progress quickly. His hands had a mind of there own in Kristin’s opinion, they unwelcomly kept reaching under her shirt. She soon found herself underneath his body, pressing her back against the side of the desk. She was pretty uncomfortable, but he seemed to be quite happy. Ew! He continued to push her top further and further up, while her hand kept having to brush it down as subtly as possible. Breaking the kiss, she spook against the side of his cheek in a low whisper. “I have an idea, why don’t we play a little… game?” she said, not asking but telling. He eased up off her a bit, and she could now at least catch a full breath.

“What kind of a game?” he asked a bit uncertainly, trying to lean in to kiss her again, she turned her head and he missed. ‘Don’t laugh!’ she told herself again. “Well, it’s really easy actually.” She said, slipping out from under him, he stumbled a little bit, after supporting his weight on her he wasn’t ready to hold himself up just yet. She took a couple steps away from him, she really did not like having to do that. It disturbed her a lot, but it would be worth it, eventually. She shifted her weight onto her right leg, and brought both her hands over to the left side of her hip. Biting the side of her lip a little before she spoke, “Well… in order to make things a little more, interesting-” his eyebrows perked up, “We both close out eyes and count to 20, during that time we take of all our clothes. But boxers on.” She said. She really didn’t want to have to see anything from him like that.

Oh, his reaction, it was so priceless! “Okay.” He said, it looked as though he was trying to check if she we’re for real or not. Nothing about her body language suggested otherwise, so things we’re good to go. “This is going to be fun, I promise.” She lied, batting her lashes a little, and it was on. ‘Merlin help me! Don’t let me laugh’! She told herself. Reaching for the hem of her robe she pulled it up slightly, giving him false hope. “Ready, shut you’re eyes and. 1…2…3…” by now he was already peeling away his robes so quickly. “4…5…6…” Kristin bit down hard on her bottom lip waiting for him to finish as she counted out loud with him. Occasionally ruffling her pants or shirt to make it at least sound as though she we’re doing it as well.

Finally all his clothes we’re off except for his skin tight grey boxers, oh this was going to break her silence. ‘Don’t laugh!’ she said again. “7…8…9…10…” she scurried over and grabbed his clothes of the floor, quite as a mouse, then made her way back to the door. “11…12…13…14…15…16…” she said, pulling out her wand. She opened the door, click, she had to hurry. “Thanks, this was fun!” she yelled laughing, she quickly murmured a locking charm on the door. His body hit the door on the other side rather loudly. Kristin was in fit’s laughing so hard. She ran down the hall, his clothes still bundled in her arms, as she tossed the into the garbage bin down the next hall.

Kristin would leave him in that room for maybe an hour or so, just long enough for him too lose his sanity, worrying if anyone would walk in an catch him there. Or with any luck good’ol Peeve’s would fly bye and see him. Oh how great that’d be! But for now she was quite happy with her work. The whole year so far had been work work work! Bleh! All work and no play makes Kristin and extremely dull girl. So no, it wasn’t exactly like she was a complete bitch and doing this out of the blue, this was in a way her release. And besides, you don’t go around ganging up on a fellow Gryffindor right in-front of her an not expect it to come around and bite you in the ass sooner or late. Kristin pushed her hair back separating it with her fingers, the swiped the side of her mouth with her hand. Some of her lip stick had smeared, that would have been just a little too obvious now wouldn’t it of? As if the smirk on her face wasn’t giving it away already. At least now she could laugh!
