* IZOBEL mahal ALIPIO !

Birthday: May 27
Species: Mutant
Orientation: Heterosexual
Status: Single
Face Claim: Christina Ricci
Student/Professor/Occupation: Formerly an exotic dancer. Currently, looking for work.
Which side are you on?: Neutral/Undecided
Abilities:. Subconsciously accesses the cerebral cortex of those around her, picking out the image of a person who brings about the greatest emotional response (for men this is usually a woman they are in love with and for women this is usually a woman they rival with or in both cases this can be someone they have lost) and subsequently creates a sensory illusion that makes herself look/sound/smell/feel very similar (though NOT identical) to that person. This is not to be mistaken as a form of shape shifting as she looks like different things to different people
Ability Limits: This power only works if you are within eye/ear shot of her. It does not work in phone calls, pictures, or mirrors. In addition, she cannot turn her power off, making it very difficult to know anyone's true feelings towards her since she brings about the memory of an entirely different person.
Character: Original
Eyes: Hazel, almond shaped, and large.
Hair:. Black, long, and straight
Body Type: Very thin, but with ample breasts
Weight: 120lbs.
Height:. 5'2"
Flaws: Various scars from falling/knocking into things. None very noticeable.
Favorite: Her eyes.
GENERAL APPEARANCE---
When she looks into the mirror she sees a thin (borderline anorexic), pale girl. Though she is 19 she looks a few years younger. She has various tattoos on her body, mostly to keep her from forgetting who she is. Her eyes are unusually large, taking you into them. No matter who she looks like her eyes change very little, except for color.
Wardrobe: She mostly dresses in rags, because she doesn’t want people to look at her. Her clothes are baggy and her hair is dishelved most of the time. She is usually wearing a hat/hood to cover up.

- Having people who genuinely care about her
Strengths:
- An amazing listening/pseudo-therapist
- Very intelligent
- Unobtrusive
- Non-judgmental of physical appearance
Weaknesses:
- Very shy
- Slight liquor dependency (to forget the lonliness)
- Can’t trust anyone
- Can be very abrasive when approached
GENERAL PERSONALITY---
Izzie is a loner if ever there was one. She longs to make a real connection with someone, but all others ever see is someone else, either someone who she can never be enough like or someone who that person wishes they could completely forget. She drowns herself in books and, she would be ashamed to admit, alcohol. When she does meet someone who seems to show a genuine interest to her she is a compassionate friend/lover, a good listening, and has a very open mind. However, she has been hurt so many times that there have been few in her life that she has felt this way about. She has put up many walls, partially to make sure she is never hurt again and partially because she doesn’t want to hurt anyone else by the memories her power drags to the surface.
Mother: Mariana Alipio, deceased
Father: Bien Alipio, deceased
Sibling(s): None
Hometown: Spring Valley, NY
GENERAL HISTORY---
Izzie’s mother passed away in childbirth and her father raised her alone, without ever remarrying. When Izzie’s power manifested at the age of 14 her father could not cope with the face of Mariana, Izzie’s mother, staring back at him through Izzie’s eyes. He began drinking every night to forget the pain.
On Izzie’s 18th birthday she found her father dead on his bed with an empty bottle of Rum. After her father’s funeral Izzie got a job at a local Gentlemens’ Club until several women threatened her life because of their jealousy towards who they though she was.
Now she is looking for a new job and residence, hopefully with people who can help her to take control over her power. Otherwise, she fears, she’ll be alone forever.

ROLEPLAY SAMPLE---Izobel wandered for what seemed like hours in the dark, unsure exactly where she was headed. A middle-aged man in a Redsox cap had dropped her here the second he got a look at her face. She wasn’t sure what memory he flashed to when he looked at her, but her guess was that it was not a happy one.
‘Just another few steps, Iz’ she promised herself. ‘Another few steps and we’re sure to see something.’ There wasn’t a single star in the sky that wasn’t covered by blackened rain clouds and she had no idea what was two steps in front of—‘Ow. Damn stupid tree!’
Izzie officially hated the dark. Though she supposed the quarter bottle of Vodka ‘Redsox’ offered her wasn’t helping either. Or the oversized hoodie hanging over her eyes. Still, she hated the dark. And trees.
