Clara Wilson was born on April 8, 1990 as the older of twin girls to a young couple in Detroit, Michigan. Clara and her sister Sophia were two-years-old on the day of July 29, 1992, when their family was caught at ground zero of the Battle of Detroit. Their mother Cecilia died fleeing and protecting her children, but only Clara escaped unscathed. Sophia was rendered unable to move of her own will, and unable to speak or breathe on her own. Oddly, she gradually began to show the physical traits of albinism as time passed, though she was born with dark hair and blue eyes like her sister. For the rest of her life, Sophia was confined to her home and bedroom.

The tragedy of the battle awakened latent psychic powers within Clara, who subconsciously repressed clear and vivid memories of the event that only surfaced in dreams, stray thoughts, and volatile waves of emotion from the final moments of thousands of innocent lives cut short. As she matured, she had many emotional issues and had problems relating to other people. The only person with whom she shared a connection was her sister, and the two kept each other positive.

Growing up, Clara struggled with constantly hearing voices in her head and frequent night terrors. Too afraid to discuss the problem, Clara took to unhealthy methods of dealing with her issues such as self-harm. It was through this that she discovered, despite the sensitivity of her skin, she healed much faster than most people and almost never scarred. Clara was also able to learn concepts faster than any other person in her class; she was able to read on a twelfth grade level by the time she was eleven years of age. This widened the gulf between her and outside interaction.

When Clara was sixteen years old, she made her first and to date only suicide attempt. Unknown to her at the time, her typical feelings of loneliness and fear had been amplified by a nearby source, bringing her to a major depressive episode. Ultimately, Clara did jump but swiftly regretted doing so, the fear of death helping her rediscover her will to live as the more positive moments of her young life and thoughts of what could be drove away the despair and gave her hope. This manifested in her psychic powers breaking down the fall before she could hit terminal velocity or the pavement. Instead, she harmlessly landed onto the concrete before the eyes of her bewildered father, who had found her note and came to stop her.

Hope

Clara and her father returned to their home after the incident and she promised, both for herself and for her family, that she would never try to take her own life again. Now seeing a psychiatrist who specialized in powered teens, Clara finally got the help and medication she needed to balance her mental state. (to be continued...)

Powers, Skills, and Attributes

Powers

Power 1 - Put info on your power here. Be as lengthy as you like. Power 2 - Not every hero HAS powers, of course, in which case the powers section can be deleted. Power 3 - Just take everything from the HR tag above the Skills section, up to the "Powers" sub-header, and delete it. You can also edit the Main Header to take the word 'Powers' out of it as well.

Skills

Skill 1 - Skills are the things your character has learned to do, or has an innate talent at doing. Skill 2 - These skills can be as mundane as painting, to more fantastical things such as enchanting items. Skill 3 - If your character has no particular skills worth noting, feel free to follow the same directions as shown for the 'Powers' sub-header on how to remove this section.

Attributes

Attribute 1 - Attributes are physical or mental traits, separate from powers in most cases, though possibly enhanced by them. Attribute 2 - Attributes can be things such as flexibility, or being naturally acrobatic, or good eye-hand coordination perhaps. Attribute 3 - Again, like the last two, if you have no use for it, delete this section. You can also ALTER the section if there is something missing that you would find more fitting.
