the basics
Name: Jessica Quinn
Age: 24
Species: Beta-Witch
Gender: Female
Desired Stance: None
Nationality: American
Occupation: Messiah Nah unemployed
only skin deep
Physical Appearance: Jessica Quinn is an attractive female Beta-Witch. She has dull blue eyes, almost grey in fact. She has long blonde hair which is sometimes wears it up as shown in the images below. She likes to wear makeup, however doesn’t go over the top, usually it’s a light amount to make her skin look more soft and smooth without making herself look like a tart.
Jessica is averagely built for a woman of her age, she isn’t fat, but not too skinny either, she had what most people would consider a perfect waist. She stands at approximately 5 foot 9 inches.
Her dress sense is pretty standard to most Humans, she goes with the trends, dressing up in the latest fashions, but saying that she isn’t crazy about fashion, she doesn’t but the most expensive things, but prefers a cheaper, but still quality clothing. She will mostly be seen in jeans and shirts, or dresses depending on the circumstances and/or how she feels.

how my heart beats
Personality: Jessica is one of the nicer people in life. She loves to help people, often putting her own life on a temporary standby while she helps another’s. Most people think she is too caring, that may well be true, especially with Lunae members now out to search for her, and there is no telling what would happen if a cunning assassin played on that personality trait. It is a big weakness, that’s for sure, but it is one she cannot correct, its in her nature to give people the benefit of the doubt and help them.
However there is a yin to her yang as with any being on the planet. She is very protective about her family, and unless someone is very good at getting into her life, she would side with them no matter what. In times of distress she is known to be aggressive, but thankfully her yin isn’t much of a part in her life, and her anger usually lasts but a few minutes before she resorts to sadness.
All in all Jessica would rather see a dangerous Vampire live, in the hopes he could see the error of his ways and turn good, than see him dead, however if that Vampire was to have hurt her family the decision would be quite the opposite.
Likes: Helping People Her Family and Friends Socialising An ordinary life
Dislikes: Cowards Bullies Anyone trying to harm her family Liars
Strengths: Reasonable magical ability Good common sense
Weaknesses: Is far too trusting sometimes Not strong physically
Abilities: Is able to heal, teleport and is sometimes able to sense when something is wrong, however it does not always work, obviously she needs to practice it more, or work out how to use it. She also has the basic spellcraft and potion making abilities
History: Jessica Quinn grew up with an average life; her mother (Tracy Quinn, 43) and father (Robert Quinn,45) brought her up well. She moved through the schooling system well enough, being one of the top in her class until High School where she opted for fun over learning, but still she kept to an above average grade in her year.
Eventually after finishing High School she went to college, and upon graduating decided to move to Twilight Shore. There she met many new friends. Of course she was in just the right place for Sol, but just the wrong place for her and her family’s safety. She was oblivious to the prophecy she was apart of, and how the Lunae would react to it. She would need to be prepared for when the real war begins.
She was visited often by friends, some of them turning out to be Sol members. At first she was completely against the idea of her being some sort of messiah in some prophecy and still she does not want to believe it. However now she is being targeted by members of Lunae and Aarde. Now the time comes for her to decide whether she wants to be the person she is supposed to be, or whether she wants to carry on her ordinary life…

Sample post: Jessica was breathing heavily, the door was slowly being smashed inwards, she had no help what so ever, all she knew was that Vampire wanted her dead. She stood in the dark cupboard, hoping her little hiding place would somehow save her, which was unlikely seeing as though this was a Vampire not a Zombie. Again the door was smashed, until finally it broke…
She held onto the baseball bat, ready to swing it if that door was to open, she wouldn’t go down without a fight. She listened closely, she could hear the grunts of the unholy being, probably trying to work out where she was, and then the thud as it moved towards her. She was ready now, she heard footsteps at the door and the doorknob turn…
WHACK!
She didn’t give it a chance to think, smashing the bat off the person’s head. However she dropped the bat upon seeing the face of a friend of hers. She apologised as best she could, thankfully the guy didn’t seem too badly injured, and she quickly went about helping him up and helping him with that nasty bump on his head…
Anything else? New Twilight
// Sorry if this profile doesn’t flow as nice as others, I’ve had writer’s block, mainly due to alcohol in take But its done now

This a good application, Adam. However, I think you should check out the beta witch abilities, as Jessica's are kind of sparse. You also need to be more specific about her family, as her brother is a canon as well. (Just don't put in his name, as Vara put that to be the user's choice.)

It says to pick 2 out of the list or make your own abilities so long as they aren't too far fetched, and as Jessica isn't an aggressive person i thought a little foresight and healing would be fine. If I have made a mistake there please give me more details because I'm not too sure what you mean by sparse exactly.
Also I didn't add in much about family because I know there is a cannon for her brother and I didn't want to add too much detail so that, that person could put their own input into the family background. Again though please say what you generally want adding and it shall be done

With family, I meant to add the names and ages of the parents, since it's kind of required. But as for the powers, she can have three, and considering the burden she has, I thought that it might be better if you added one more.

Haha messiah!
Okay, so techincally betawitches are only allowed two powers, not three...but because Jessica is supposed to 'save the world', I think the sensing ability of hers is an okay extra. In fact, that power can be used to help track the dark creature and the dark magic. I like how you've made her vulnerable, its rather realistic.

*facepalm* Forgot that beta-witches were only supposed to have two. I think in the original we let 'em have three, or something... Anywho, I think it's fine. Plus, the sensing isn't really a huge power, some people do have a sixth sense in real life. I say it's great.

This character has been dropped. She's a canon, so if you're claiming that character and would like to use any of this material, please PM Adam, as he was the original owner of her.
