Zoey Marie-Anne King
FACE CLAIM: Jenna McDougall
---------------------------------
AGE: 21
GENDER: Female
ORIENTATION: Pansexual
POSITION: College Student- Medic intern.
POWER: Owl Physiology and shifting.
Zoey's power is that of transforming her physical form into that of an owl. Her entire body shifts into the form of a small snowy owl, the transformation takes about a minute to complete and is rather strange for onlookers to observe, as her skin takes on feathers, her bones hollow, compact and shrink, and she generally groans in pain throughout the ordeal.
Once completed she stands at about 22 inches, with a full wingspan of about 5 feet. Not particularly large for a snowy owl. She has all the standard traits of a snowy owl, good resistance to adverse weather conditions, excellent eyesight and night vision, keen hunting sense such as hearing, however she does retain her regular human intelligence, but does enjoy hunting considerablly. She can retain this form for as long as it takes to shift back, but she can only shift about twice a day, 3 at a push, as the actual act of shifting wears her out quite throughouhly.
Secondary power: Partial Owl physiology
Zoey as she grew older, gained the ablity to shift parts of her human body to accomodate her avian characteristics, currently this is limited to wings and eyesight and even then, the wings leave scars on her back, the wings sprout from her back, growing bones first, and then feather and thin layers of muscle, the full wingspan is about 12 feet.
LIMITATIONS:
Full body shift:
-She can retain this form for as long as it takes to shift back, but she can only shift about twice a day, 3 at a push, as the actual act of shifting wears her out quite throughouhly.
-While in this form her, though her eyesight is considerably sharper and she has absolutely excellent night vision, her perception of colours is distorted, not quite seeing everything in black and white, but having trouble telling most colours apart such as variations from red and blue, and further more, she CANNOT focus on anything within a few centimetres of her, it would appear fuzzy or blurred.
-She can fly for a few hours a time, maintaining what is for birds, slow, steady flight. And due to the nature of owl flight, she is almost completely silent during flight, after long nights of flight however she is required to rest.
Partial-Shift:
-Zoey can shift her eyes about 3-4 times a day, and can only maintain this for about 30 minutes at a time, before she is forced to shift them back, or simply close her eyes for extended periods of time. This functions in much the same way as her full body shift's eyesight does.
-Zoey can only sprout wings once a day, or twice if there is a 12 hour rest between shedding them last and regrowing them, this however will cause quite severe side effects.
-She can maintain flight with the wings for about 30 minutes at a time maximum, half or less if she is carrying someone, depending on their weight. This can cause additional side effects due to the nature of her human bone structure.
SIDE-EFFECTS:
- All of the shifts cause Zoey some form of discomfort, except for reverting back to her regular human form. The full body shift is extremely painful, the eye shift is very uncomfortable, as if forcing contact lenses into your eyes, and the wing shift causes a large amount of pain, and aching shorty after they have fully sprouted.
-Full body shifts take a LOT of energy, if Zoey does a full body shift more than twice a day, she will afterwards be rendered into a hibernation like state, where she'll sleep between 12 and 48 hours depending on how worn out she is, while her body recovers.
-Eye partial shifts cause Zoey headaches and nosebleeds if she retains them for too long, and if she tries to do it more than 3 or 4 times in the same day, her eyesight will become murky and distorted for at least 24 hours, which needless to say can be distressing.
-Wing partial shifts are probably the most troublesome, given that her bone structure still remains on the whole human, flight is reliant on her muscles more than her lightness, which are admittedly quite strong, however if she maintains flight for too long it causes intense pain and back aches, sometimes micro fractures in her bones too.
Student intern interview- Subject: King, Zoey, Marie-Anne
Topic of interview-Internship in medicinal facilities.
Interviewer: So, we already know about your school life, more or less. How about we start with you telling us about the other parts of you we don't see as much of.
Zoey: Well... I guess you could say I'm a bit of an overloader. I like to be busy, I like to be out in the open, I like to be with friends.
The blonde paused for a moment before continuing
Zoey: I enjoy singing. And playing music, a LOT. I've always been into it, ever since I was younger.
Interviewer: Yes, I recall notes about your parents wanting you to have gone to a musician prep school, correct?
Zoey: Yup! Though they probably wouldn't approve of the kind of music I'm generally into, classical is all well and good but I like music with a real kick to it.
Interviewer: Very well, your manifestation occurred at age 13, is that right? Could you tell us a little about it?
The blonde girl smirked to the interviewer and batted her eyelashes at him a little bit.
Zoey: Well, I was at a uh... what did you call it prep school? Yeah, that's right. I wasn't terribly happy, I had eyes on me at all times, I couldn't do anything with my hair, but I didn't exactly rebel against my parents. I kept quite, bottled up, expressed myself in class through my music, which the teachers thought was disturbing at the time, and then around the time I was 13 it just kind of snapped something, I wanted to get out, be away, get away. I uh....
The girl's cheeks flushed a little.
Zoey: My power activated for the first time, it took me a while to realise what was going on, I had blinding pain, screamed a uh... lot. My room was soundproofed, so my parents didn't hear a thing, the neighbours did though. My window as open. The whole thing kind of felt like a dream, I was small, everything was so clear, smelled so sharp, I could hear a pin drop. It was crazy.
She paused for a second before continuing.
Zoey: I flew straight out the window, having urm... Left my clothes in my room. I was out in the woods nearby, I thought it was all a dream, it lasted for so long, it must have been a day or two before I returned to being me, completely nude, in the forest. A representative from Sir Henry's found my parents and me and explained everything... they were kinda horrified. Though I think they changed their tune once they saw the school itself, not like they had much of a say in the matter, but the school was quite far away from where we lived, and there off I went, to a boarding school in the middle of nowhere.
She gulped some of the water in the glass in front of her before the interviewer raised her eyebrows.
Interviewer: Alright, one last thing. If I might ask, why the big personality shift? You seem to be much more open with yourself than the earlier notes on your suggested.
The interviewer had gestured to her hair.
Zoey: Well, the Aussie counterpart of your school happens to be a lot more into the out-doorsey aspect of everything, which suited me and my power quite well. I became much more of a free spirit, you should have seen my family's face when I showed the the tattoo.
The interviewer, having noted the tattoo on her back when she came in smiled to her and held out her hand to the blonde.
Interviewer: Well, I have to say this went well. I'll pass on my notes, and hopefully we'll be seeing more of you soon, you're enrolling as well so my hopes are high.
