Name: Linnaea Rosalind Sparks
Nicknames: Rosa, Lin, Sparky
Date of birth/age: June 5, 1989/22
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Lesbian (but shy about it)
Job: Changes somewhat regularly.
Degrees/Permits: None?
Languages Spoken: English, enough to get by in a variety of others, all learned from her 'Aunts' and 'Uncles'
Human or shifter: Shifter
Appearance:
PB: Emily Browning
Rosalind reinvents herself, looks, lifestyle and job. But she tends to always return to one of two baselines. One is slightly curly, chocolate brown hair, down past her shoulders, natural make up and somewhat bohemian clothes. The other is bleached white hair, kept in a pair of pigtails and makeup that tends towards slightly unsettling and more... unique clothing. In either ‘self’ her eyes are a sort of yellow-ish green, with a dark blue ring around the outside of her iris (Central heterochromia). She's quite a bit stronger then she looks, and it's very obvious when she flexes. Her upper and lower canines are both longer and sharper, and her tongue is rougher, although that's not as noticeable, and her ears are about a quarter of an inch longer at the top then normal. More noticeable then those is that when she's not wearing shoes, she walks digitgrade, as her toes are nearly a joint longer then usual and quite flexible.
Personality: Rosalind is, on first impression, a bit of a contradiction. On the outside, she's cold and more then a bit ditzy.
She's not either of those things. She's quite intelligent, in a quiet sort of way (Not so much in the way of book smarts, she knows all sorts of things about making clothes, and plants and gardening and fixing and building things. She's got a bit of book smarts but they're... sporadic. She has giant gaps and she knows she has giant gaps.) and her apparent coldness is really shyness.
She's very good at making acquaintances, not so good at making friends and she never quite gets up the courage to flirt with the women she's attracted to.
But inside, she's a marshmallow, snuggly and soft and very sweet, and also very protective of those she's close to.
Rosalind likes being pretty, loves doing physical things, like home improvement and gardening. And one of the best ways to describe her is that she tap dances on the line between femme and butch. Soft, pretty, thinks cutting down trees is fun, and knocking down a wall and building an addition is a good way to spend time, when she isn't doing her nails and picking out new clothes.
Strengths:
Good with her hands
Stronger then she looks
Good at building things, gardening, making clothes
A number of useful connections in the criminal world
Loyal
Unafraid of just about critter the natural world throws at her
Weaknesses:
Shy
Knowledge gaps (Quite large ones. She's hasn't got much of a clue about pop culture and she's largely self taught, as she was never in school for more then a couple of months at a time)
Really not good with kids
Doesn't necessarily think the way normal people do
Insecure whenever she's outside of her comfort zone
History:
Linnaea Rosalind Sparks was born to a pair of career con artists. She's still not entirely sure of their real names, and she herself has gone through several dozen aliases over the years, although she's returned to using her real name. Her mother was a big fan of Shakespeare, hence her middle name, (her mother adored Romeo and Juliet. ....She thought it was funny.) Her father gave her her first name and never told her why.
Her parents moved almost constantly, and she never spent much in time in school, largely educated by her parents and herself. She grew up surrounded by con artists, thieves and smugglers and occasionally it shows, despite the fact that she never went into that life herself. Her early life left her with her need to reinvent herself, and her insecurity, her attempts to find some place to fit.
Rosalind was 17 when she contracted Versi, not long after she first moved to Miami. She took it in stride really. It was a bit hard to get used to the changes in her appearance and the shifts in her senses, but she'd adjusted to things equally as strange in her life.
And now she's living on her own in an apartment she only recently moved into. She hasn't met any of her neighbors and she's not entirely sure how, but she's working on it.
✓►SHIFTER◄
Species: Serval (Leptailurus serval)
Group: Mammal
Conservation status: Least Threatened
Appearance:
Abilities: She's got fangs (top and bottom, although not very big), a rougher tongue, and longer ears. Her eyesight is better, and her hearing is far more sensitive. She has retractable claws, although she keeps them trimmed short, as it feels very odd for them to come out. Her toes are longer and more flexible and she's both faster and stronger.
