Aberrant: The Middle Children of History - Emily Palacios


Recommended Posts

Name: Emily ‘Emi’ Palacios

Age: 19

Gender: Female

Height: 5’2”

Weight: 109 lbs.

Description:

A slight willowy girl who looks to be in her mid-teens, Emi is not so much beautiful as she is cute. Her delicate elfin face is framed by straight chocolate colored hair that falls past her shoulders. She has a lightly tanned and smooth complexion. Deep hazel eyes lend her a look of trusting innocence. Emi is delicately poised on the cusp of her sexuality, caught in the transition from child to woman, as evidenced by her slender shapeliness and sylph-like prettiness.

Emi is easily bored and, for all her keen powers of perception, often seems distracted. Her charm is her unstudied insouciance, her artlessness. This ingénue air she carries with her so nakedly attracts an equal measure of positive and negative attention. Just as there are those who are moved by Emi’s girlish cuteness to protect her and defend her, so too there are those who see such qualities as an invitation to harm her or possess her.

Background:

Emi’s mother, Helena White, also known as the White Witch, is a powerful Nova of wide renown. Her father, Alejandro Palacios is a baseline businessman, a media mogul born in Colombia but living in London where he owns and operates his own advertisement and management company, Sierra Blanca Productions. Palacios specializes in representing Novas, which is how he met Emi’s mother and, after a long courtship that spanned nearly two decades, married her.

Emi was born long before this union became official. She inherited little from her father except for his eyes and his name, and even less from her mother. While Helena White is a figure of inhuman perfection, strong, fast, stunningly beautiful and possessed of the power to cure almost any wound or disease with a simple touch from her hand, Emi has developed no such gifts.

Being infused with her mother’s healing powers in the womb has made Emi un-aging, her physical development halted just at maturity, which she regards as less of a boon than a curse. Emi has none of her mother’s strength, speed, or preternatural beauty. Her only power seems to be an uncanny ability to see into the past and future, to know what she should not, though she has thus far only been able to harness this gift through her art. Many of Emi’s paintings have turned out to be prophecies, though she is known less for her own accomplishments than for her mother’s.

Recently, Helena and Alejandro’s relationship has begun to falter. Their quarrels are increasingly mean-spirited and long lasting and Emi often finds herself drawn into the middle of them. Because of this she has begun living alone, in an effort to escape the disharmony of her parents’ household. She has achieved a small measure of independence this way, though her mother’s shadow still looms over her and Helena, secretly disapproving of Emi’s modest successes in her academic and professional life, still plays a heavy hand in Emi’s affairs.
