Astra Lowe 'Jane Doe'
FACE CLAIM: Jaimie Alexander
---------------------------------
AGE: 24
GENDER: Female
ORIENTATION: unknown
POSITION: Bellefonte Cleaner
POWER: Omni-linguism
Jane is a natural polygolt, able to understand around 9 different languages and speak 5 fluently (Mandarin, French, Arabic, Russian, Dutch) as well as english. She is able to do this as her mind naturally learns, stores and relays languages learned with great skill. Her retention of languages is far gearter then the human brain. Her brain has the innate ability to desciper words automatically and convey them in a way she understands
LIMITATIONS:

-Cannot learn languages instantly
-because this is a mental power, she finds it better to remember and relay languages when she is at optimal mental health.
SIDE-EFFECTS:
-Headaches
-Occasional difficulty getting words out
-Nose bleeds
-Tempory laps in memory.
-Locking into a certain language for a short time.
"Ma'am, please state your full name for the record."
"I dont know."
"I'll say again, please state your full name for the record."
"Ive told you I dont know!"
"I know you've had some difficulty remembering, Ma'am, but please try to remember."
"For the last time, I dont remember my name! Im trying, but I cant remember!"
JANUARY 1ST 1994.
"Oh my god Cassie, she's beautiful!" There are people milling around the exhausted looking woman cradling a baby in her arms. "Isnt she just?" The mother, Cassie, smiled wearily at the family admiring her child. "What are you gonna call her?" Another asked, before a deep voice piped up. "What about Astra, after my mother?" Came the voice of Issac, the baby's father. "Yeah, I like Astra.. Astra Lowe." There are nods of approval all around, many a smile. Outside, the canadian snow fell gently.
"There's no sign of any physical trauma, no drugs present in her system, nothing."
"Nothing at all? So she just... fortgot?"
"It would seem that way. It is possible she suffered a traumatic event that triggered a memory relapse"
"Will she ever remember?"
"Hard to say, we've never had a case like this before."
OCTOBER 5TH 2004
"C'mon Astra!" Cassie cried to the young girl across the square. In her hand she held a croissant. "Ma! Did you know that Merci means thank you?" Astra is almost bouncing with excitement when she relays the newly learned word. "Well I do now sweet heart!" Her mother laughed, ruffling Astra's hair gently. "Come on, lets go find daddy." The girl nods and grabs her mothers hand.
JANUARY 1ST 2006
Issac stared hard at Astra across the table with a sly smile. "Ok... what about verrat?" The girl scrunched up her face for a moment before speaking. Boar. The man laughed at his daughter, leaning across and ruffling her dark hair. "God, Astra, your to good at this!" Astra laughed, eyes bright.
"Who is the president of the United States?"
"I dont know..."
"When were you born.
"How many of these are there?"
"Please Ma'am, awnser the questions."
"I keep telling you! I dont know! I dont know who I am, where Im from! I dont even know my mothers name!"
"Ma'am, do you know what a mutant is?"
"What are you talking about?!"
MARCH 12TH 2008
The young girl's eyes flitted over the list of French and Dutch words, her head hurting slightly. She was 14, and each word before her seemed to translate letter by letter to english, even those she didnt know. She rubbed her eyes, looking away and back. How odd! "DA!!!!" She called out. "Yeah honey?" He replied...
MARCH 20TH 2008
8 days later there was a knock at the Lowe's door, and Astra was the first one to the door. "Haha! Beat ya Da!" She giggled before opening the door. "Hello there, Astra, where are your parents?" Said one of the smart looking woman at her door. "DA!! SOMEONE WANTS YOU! She screamed, and Issac came to the door. "Can I help? He asked. One of the woman cleared her throat. "Yes, Mr Lowe. We are recruiters from the Academy of Acton Vale., and we would like to discuss your daughters power..."
A FEW HOURS LATER
So Im a 'mutant'? Is that why I can read those languages? Astra asked. "Yes, and we would like you to come to our school so we can teach you to use it better" Issac looked at her daughter with a smile. Da, can I go? Pleaaasseee?" The man looked at the woman, then back to his daughter. "Lets ask your mother..." He pulled out his phone and it began to ring. "Hey Cassie! How are you babe? Good good, how is spain? And that castle restoration? Fantastic" He smiled. Come on Da! Ask her!" Astra whined. "Ok ok. So Cassie, you remember my aunt Lucy? Remeber how she could tell what you were thinking? Yeah, she was a mutant, and it turns out, Astra is one! They say she's and omni-luinguist. And Atra wants to know if she can go to the school. Yep, mhm, yep. OK, see you soon baby." He put the phone down and looked at Astra. "She said yes!"
"Ma'am, can you read Mandarin?"
"What? No! Of course not!"
"Please try to read this"
I cant!
"Please try"
Wǒ kěyǐ dú pǔtōnghuà.. Oh god. I can read Mandarin?
"Yes, and we think you can read more..."
JULY 14TH 2010
"Hey Ma, hey Da!" Astra said gleefully into the phone, her green eyes flitting over the dutch, french and russian words before her, writing down the meanings on the piece paper. She had been at Acton Vale for over 2 years, and its had been amazing. Her power was amazing, and she had so much fun calling people idiots in various languages. Yeah im fantastic! Im now fluent in french, and Russian, and nearly dutch! There is a faint hint of voices from the speaker phone. Ok ok calm down guys! Astra laughed. "Yes im coming home for the weekend! Her eyes moved to the clock on the wall. Shit. Oh, I gotta go guys, im nearly lte for class. Love you! With that she put her phone down and raced out the door of her dorm.
SEPTEMBER 9TH 2013
Astra slowly dragged her suitcase off of the carosel, before she turned and wandered to the airport door and into the cold sunshine. A taxi was waiting outside, a man standing before it with her name on some paper. Zdravstvuyte! She smiled and the man shook her hand. The girl slipped into the car and buzzed excitedly for her Russian adventure.
AUGUST 25TH 2018
Home. Thats were she was going. Sure, she couldnt spend christmas at home, but she sure as hell could be home for her birthday. She had just left the airport, only to be glomped by two familiar faces. "Ma! Da! God its so good to see you! Her parents gripped tight onto, before pulling her to their car, chatting away happily. "So how was Russia?" Cassie asked, taking a sip of her wine. "Oh it was wonderful! I had so much fun!" Her parents smiled.
SEPTEMBER 12th 2018
The door bell rang, and Astra paused the film she was watching and went to open it. When she opened the door she was shooked to see a rather solem looking police man on her door step. Hello officer, can I help you?" The police looked nervously at her. "Are you Astra Lowe?" Yes... The woman said nervously, and the man cleared his throat. "Ms Lowe, today at noon we were called to the scene of a car accident. Cassie and Issac lowe's car was hit by a drunk driver. They were killed on site." Astra fell against the frame of the door. "Im sorry for you loss Ms Lowe." With that he dipped his head and turned.
SEPTEMBER 13TH 2018
"You ok miss?" Asked the taxi driver as he looke din his mirror as the ghostly pale girl sitting in the back of his car. Gelieve rijden She said, hardly realizing she had slipped into dutch. "I dont understand you miss." gewoon rijden! Shit shit why couldnt she speak in english? She had started to sweat, but the driver just nodded, starting to drive. The girl in the back of his car had nothing on her, no bag, no wallet, just a wad of cash she had shoved into his hand. She had told him take take her as far away a possible, and he obeyed. It must have been at least 4 or 5 hours later when the driver stopped, turning around to shaking the sleeping Astra away. "Ok, Miss, this si as far as im gonna take you." The girl awoke, looking like a ghost, bags heavy beneath her eyes. She nodded silently and got out, wandering off.
SEPTEMBER 20TH 2018
Her head hurt. She had no clue how she managed to get from Vancouver to Kalispree, but she didnt really care. The death of her parents weighed heavy on her heart, and she felt as if her mind was slipping. No one knew who she was, after all, it was her first time here. She walked like a phantom, hardly taking notice of where she was going until she walked out infront of a car, its brakes squeaking as she fell to the floor.
"She's definatly Candian. Her accent, she even has a tattoo on her lower back saying she is a 'canada girl' not that thats much to go on."
"Ok, so does that give us any idea of her identity?"
"No, im afraid not. The school for mutans over there burnt down a few years ago, and most of the files were lost. We will run her picture and DNA through our databases to see if she comes up on any missing person reports, but its not looking hopeful.
"So what do we do with her? She has no where to go, and no money..."
"Well, maybe we can send her to Bellefonte?
A few hours later
"Hello, is that Bellefonte Academy?"
"Yes, how may I help?"
"Its Kalispree Police here. Well, we have a mutan female here who is in need of a job. We found her after she stepped out infont of a care by the mall. No one knows who she is, and the problem is, neither does she."
"Hm. Let me go speak to the head mistress."
"Ok, I'll hold"
"Ok, so the head mistress said we can take her on as a cleaner if that is appropriate."
"Very much so. Thank you so much. We will send her to you tomorrow!"
"Can I have a name?"
"Oh yes of course, put her down as Jane Doe, just until we figure out her real name."
