Rylee Louise Gordon
FACE CLAIM: Carmen Bicondova
---------------------------------
AGE: 15
GENDER: Female
ORIENTATION: I don’t understand what that means…
POSITION: Student
POWER: Enhanced Mental Processing and Memory
To understand Rylee's power, one must imagine her mind as a high tech computer. Her mind is able to receive, process and store infomation that is fed to her at higher level then most people. Her mind can also recall these memories with less difficulty. This makes it easier for her to remember small details. Rylee can also hold memories for much longer then most. The best example of this is a flash card exercise. If she is shown a series of flash cards with different pictures for a second or two, she would be able to tell you the images. Although experiances with a greater impact on her life are easier to remember. However, this means her brain can involuntarily take in lots of infomation and overload her mind.
LIMITATIONS:
-Not every memory can be retained, some can be forgotten
-Visual memories are more easy to retain then other stimuli.
-Though she is able to process and store information, she needs to have enough time to do so.
-Her mind is like a hard drive, there is only so much space she has.
-Her brain must be well rested and charged for best results
SIDE-EFFECTS:
-Occasional headaches and migraines due to an overload of information
-The odd nose bleed due to metal exertion
-Loss of focus
-Fiddling
-Sensativity around places with an abundance of infomation (crowds etc.)
-Mental breakdowns due to an overload of infomation.
HEIGHT: 1.54m
HAIR COLOR: brownish blonde
EYE COLOR: pale green with hazel flecks
MISC: Rylee is a bit odd appearance wise. She has waadenburg syndrome, something which affects her facial structure. Her eyes are rather widely spaced apart, and her nose bridge is very flat. She is 5'1 and is somewhat stocky, and somewhat lanky. Her hair is cut into a thick, waved bob, the colour of sand and mud. Rylee's eyes are a pale green with hazel flecks. She often wears darker clothing, and tops with logos from her comics.
PERSONALITY: Rylee is a complicated character. She is utterly and completly shy, to the point of being an almost completely mute, because of this she tends to communicate in sign language, or not at all. She as a general rule doesnt like new people, situations or places as the often over load her brain. She is rather frightful of loud noises and surprises, or very sudden events. Though she has an enhanced memory, learning new things is very difficult for her to do, as she jas learning difficulties.
Rylee also likes things in a routine, as that is easiest for her brain to handle. But, if that routine is broken, she can find it very difficult to cope. She finds solace in the world of comic books and video games, something she enjoys greatly. Often she can be seen reading a very worn copy of Batman Detective Comics, with a picture of Cat woman on the front. She has read it so often the wording is almost gone and Rylee knows it off by heart.
SECRET(S): n/a
FATHER: Dylan Gordon
MOTHER: Tracy Gordon
SIBLINGS: Robin Gordon
WORTHY MENTIONS:
CHILDHOOD: She was born on the 4th March 2000 to Traci and Dylan Gordon in Missoula. She was born relativly health, but with a genetic disorder called Waardenburg syndrome, which affected her facial structure. Sadly, when Rylee was a year old, her father was killed in a car accident. Traci was left to care for Rylee alone. For a few years, her life was relativly easy.
At 3 years old, however, she contacted bacterial meninjitis, and spent two months in intensive care. It was very hard on her mother, who was struggling to cope financially and emotionaly. Luckly, Rylee recovered fairly well, though the meninjitis caused mild brain damage, which gave her a severe stutter and learning difficulties. It took her much longer to develop then normal babies. Her mother had to work two jobs to pay for specilized therapy and care.
Traci has a very brief affair with one of her married coworkers, which resulted in Rylee's sister, Robin being born. She was born on the 12th June 2005. Robin was also born with Waardenburg syndrome, which doesmt really affect her facial structure, but does affect her hearing. Robin is entirely deaf, so both girls were taught sign language to communicate.
Rylee started school when she was 6. She was bullied rather badly at elementary because of her stutter and odd looks. She became even more of a recluse, and it was around this time when she started using sign language instead of actual speaking. She was eventually removed from her school and homeschooled for a few years, before she was sent to another school.
ADOLESCENCE:
At her new school, as with the last one, she was bullied relentlessly. It got so bad, that on the 1th september 2015, she was pushed from a climbing frame by one of her bullies. She landed on her back, developed a hairline fracture along her skull and serious concusion. She also had a very fractured in a vertabrae in her back. Though it did not paralyse her, she had to be operated on so she could heal correctedly. She had a pin placed in her spine so it would heal right. She had to learn how to walk properly again.
Once her concusion had healed, she menifested about a month after her accident while still in hospital at the age of 15. She was able to name every nurse and doctor which had passed her, and could remember exactly what drugs and tests they did on her, and her results. It had began to creep out the staff, but about 2 weeks after she manifested, a Bellefonte Recruiter came to the hospital to explain what was happening.
She was given a few more days to heal before she was taken to the school, where she continued physiotherapy.
