Name: Eva Isaachar
Nicknames: David was her birth name
Date of birth/age: June 20 / 22 years old
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Job: Mortuary cosmetologist
Human or shifter: Human
Appearance:
Played by Emma de Caunes. Eva stands at 5’6, and weighs in at a very slender 118 lbs, with a slim birdlike build that is already somewhat effeminate just by nature, without the aid of surgery. She has russet brown eyes and very light brown skin. Her hair is mouse brown, and worn in a choppy bob that goes to the base of her neck in the back. Eva shall not leave her home without foundation to “feminize” her face, and while she sports lip gloss for everyday use, she’ll bust out the coral pink lipstick and some light pink or lavender eye shadow for more special occasions. Her nails, perfectly done, are ever-coated in enamel of lavender, lilac, or any shade of pink, and her eyelashes are lengthened by mascara. Hormones can't change her male voice, so she has to fake a high-pitched girly one. She has spent so much time practicing and perfecting her second voice that it has become second nature, and her “real” boy’s voice will only be heard if she extremely super-emotional. It also may get a bit lower if she’s losing her focus, or spasm if she’s just had something cold or spicy.
Eva is almost always in a skirt or dress of some type, though never anything too short or plunging, as she wouldn’t want to expose certain things, or rather, her LACK of certain things. Pleats are favored, as are ribbons, always with the right socks or stockings for an unbearably cute look. Tops include anything with ruffles, blouses with short puffy sleeves, and fashionable sleeveless things. Colors are, as you might expect, primarily pinks and light purples, with bright sky blue and white and even a few black items (shoes, vests) added to keep things from being too overwhelmed by the uber-girly tones. Always looks trendy and cheerful. Many of her outfits are inspired from schoolgirl uniforms, though she makes them much more fashionable. She uses a bra filled with bird seed wrapped in nylon or rubber fishing worms in water balloons in order to make it look as though she has breasts, and it looks much more natural than you would think. Her shoes come in a wide variety, including Converse high tops, ballerina flats, and high-heeled strappy sandals. Her favorites, however, are a pair of 2-inch platform Mary Janes that most often paired with a pleated skirt and white thigh-high stockings or frilly ankle-socks. She wears many types of jewelry, all of it pretty and girly and cute. Hearts and stars are common themes in it, and are often charms on her bracelets or pendants on her necklaces.
Personality:
Eva is cute. That’s not ordinarily an adjective used to describe a personality, but Eva makes it one. Cute, plucky compassionate, courageous, flirtatious, and feminine. That’s Eva. For the most part, anyway. But she’s insecure at her very core, which must be admitted. Still, she’s accepted her lot in life and herself for who she is, and she is making nothing but the best of it, both for herself and for those around her. Eva’s a friendly, sweet, caring sort, always willing to show a new kid around. She knows what’s like to not have any friends, to be ignored, to be picked on, and it gets her temper hot to see it done to anyone else. She’s very fearless, and her friendly attitude can do a 180 into fiery little avenging angel if she sees injustice carried out on someone, especially if they can’t fight back against their attacker. In most situations, however, she really is a sweetheart, and a true joy to be around, quick with a pleasant wit and listening ear. She’s learned that people don’t always fit into neat little categories, and every person is an individual, not a label, and tries to get to know people as people and not as preconceptions. You can’t sum up a life in a single word, so don’t try, she reasons. Just be.
She’s delightfully sassy, quick with a quip, and takes the edge off of anything because she’s undoubtedly sharper than it is. She uses her wit for making people feel good, not to put them down. Honestly, shouldn’t you use any gift, no matter how small, to make people happy? Expect her to be enthusiastic and bubbly in conversations, peppering her speech with a more than liberal amount of Valley Girl type phrases. She’s not quite camp exactly, but she’s a bit flamboyant at times, figuring she might as well be because it’s fun, and while she doesn’t NEED lots of attention, it’s nice to get a wee bit once in awhile, as long as it’s the good kind. She’s quite giggly, but only at appropriate times, and can be much more serious than one would think possible when need be. Because of her own first-hand understanding of the importance of secrets, she is an excellent person to confess confidential information to. Rest assured, your trust will not be betrayed, for her silence on behalf of others is sacred to her.
Despite the bubbly, perky, Elle Woods mallrat demeanor she sports, Eva is a sharp little thing. She’s clever, and is smart in both the book and the street sense. She is less flighty than she seems, and had above-average grades when she was a student. Eva is also is thrifty and frugal, but that’s only because she wants the best deals in order to have money left over for even more stuff, and is capable of an impressive splurge if she sees something she just has to have, or when gift shopping for friends. She keeps herself familiarized with all the latest trends and cosmetics tricks’n’tips via the typical teen girl magazines, Cosmogirl and Seventeen and the like, and can be a big help with your outfit, your hair, your accessories, and your makeup. Yes, she realizes she’s stereotypical. She doesn’t give a damn if she is. She has fun doing it, and that’s all that matters. However, she does feel pressure to be stereotypically hyperfeminine in other ways, for fear of being judged as not a "real" woman.
Just because she is girly doesn't mean that she is weak. Most people, be they her friend or her foe, expect Eva to crumple into a terrified, sobbing, pink little heap when confronted with hate and bigotry or an otherwise bad situation. They’re dead wrong, however. Though she is mostly made of sugar with a fair dash of spice and plenty of everything nice, there is a spine of steel within the sweetness, one that is unbendable, unbreakable, and totally unexpected to whatever small-minded creep is making trouble for her. She gets mean, and she gets LOUD and next thing you know some macho jerk is being emasculated by a girl in a pink skirt. Should push come to a literal shove, Eva will fight tooth and nail in her defense, and she has plenty of nail, thank you. Eva is done taking crap lying down. She is TOUGH. She has to be in a world that has shown violence to people like her time and again. She’s not about to be an easy victim for anyone. Not anymore.
She likes decorating her bedroom, socializing, flirting just for fun, Gummi Bears, passion fruit juice, shopping with friends, sales/bargains, and her pet mouse Magdalena, whom she often carries around in her purse. She dislikes when people are too slow and/or quiet for her tastes, eating anything messy (like an extra-juicy peach or crumbly cookies), things like seaweed salad or overcooked spinach, not having the figure (yet!) to wear certain things that she wants to, and being told that she's stereotypical. Yes, she is, and she knows it, but she doesn't see why that's such a horrible thing like people always seem to imply when they say it. She absolutely hates her "pixie stick" and whenever she is seen as just a very gay boy and/or drag queen instead of the girl that she is. She doesn't have a problem at all with shifters, they're just people who caught a sickness, but she really really doesn't want to be one. See, if she becomes a shifter, then she won't be able to get breast implants, because they would move around and possibly burst when she changed into an animal, and if she had the advanced healing abilities that most do, then she wouldn't be able to get her sex-change operation because it would probably treat the surgery on her penis as an injury and try to reverse it. So she's been very thorough about finding out what could make her one, which means she does know better than to think that sharing a mug or bathroom with one could infect her.
Strengths:
* Good at keeping secrets
* Quite good at multitasking
* Good with clothes, better with hair, best at makeup
* Perky, has a good attitude
* Very caring and understanding
* Clever
Weaknesses:
* Very insecure about herself in terms of her trans status, though she hides it well
* Sensitive
* Afraid to be in a relationship, even though she wants to be
* Can be a bit absent-minded at times
* Very afraid of becoming a shifter or being outed
History:
Born right here in Miami, David Isaachar was the only child of a pair of very offbeat liberal sorts who lived in. He was a bubbly attention-loving baby who grew into a bright, social little boy. However, there always something odd about him, to the point where even super-progressive types like his parents considered him more "feminine" than was "normal" for a little "boy". Despite his sweet and friendly nature, he was ostracized as a child for his so-called sissyness, and was often picked on by boys in the neighborhood and at school, and he didn't grow out of it like some thought he would--quite the reverse, in fact.
David’s whole issue was, he just didn’t FEEL like a boy. He felt “wrong” being called “he”, wrong the way he sat, wrong the way he went to the bathroom, wrong everything. He didn’t know what the name for what the matter with him was, but he knew, very strongly, that his body was not right, was not how it was meant to be, and he knew he wasn't j a boy who wore girl’s clothes or a boy that did girl things—he knew he was a girl. Not just wanted to be, but actually was, regardless of how he/she looked on the outside. But she had no idea that there was a name for this, or that she wasn't the only one. She tried to hide in baggy clothing during middle school that would hide any signs of being male or female, making herself as gender-neutral as possible, as confusing as she was confused. Pretty much everyone thought she was a gay boy and treated (read: harassed) her as such, and since she didn't know of any other label to put on herself she went with it, but it never felt, like everything in her life related to gender, quite right.
Her parents, as counterculture bohemians, had always been the people who cared LEAST about David's gender expression, but now that their son seemed to be depressed, they decided to get "him" some help, and took him to therapy, where he was diagnosed eventually as being a textbook case of gender dysphoria. David had been right all along--she, yes she, really was a girl trapped in a male body. While her parents were as accepting as always, the rest of the world was still hostile to the young girl, and a few years later she was ambushed by a group of guys who, to put it bluntly, beat the ever-loving hell out of her. They also burned off her hair, which she had worn long up until then, and she later snipped the charred ends away into the short cut it is today. Originally she had planned to grow it out again, but she has found that, despite its origins, she does look really good with a bob.
For her own safety, her parents sent her to live with family in New York where no one knew her. While she was there, She began to go by the name Eva, dressing/presenting as a girl in public, and got on androgen blockers, later graduating to using female hormones as well with therapist approval. After high school, Eva went to community college and cosmetology school, then returned home to Miami where she got a job as a mortuary cosmetologist.
