The Basics
Name: Claudia O'keefe
Age: 28
Place of Residence: The Island
Section on the Plane, or not on the plane [Other]: Other, not on the plane.
Appearance
Eyes: hazel
Hair: darkest of brown
Body Type: small but sturdy
Overall:
Claudia stands about five foot five and her hazel eyes are always looking at something, but rarely are they looking at you, at least not for long. She squints when she's thinking as if she's looked through one too many microscopes, which she has. Her movements often suggest she is consistently running out of time, watched closely by a clock only she is aware of. Her soft hair is often a bit unkempt as if it too were racing to catch up with her, not that she worries too much about appearances. Claudia's clothes are usually a little too long, and she likes it that way. Her frame is slender, but she is strong from laboring in the sun and in the lab.
Personality
Likes: water, the color blue, the thought of an amusement park, books, sea urchins, bat rays, hot weather
Dislikes: social situations, mysteries she can't solve, problems she can't fix, being told what to do, pollution
Strengths: smart, witty, physically strong, works well alone, devoted, doesn't give up easily
Weaknesses: stubborn, quick to be led to emotion, can't keep a secret for long, can be too focused on her task at hand, quick to make judgments when it comes to people
Overall Personality:
Claudia is a workaholic but rightly so, she has important tasks to perform. She is loyal and devoted to every thing and everyone she holds dear, sometimes to a fault. She does not always engage well with people, but has an immense love for the ocean and animals in it, and is a protector.
She is quirky, but kind if you have the chance to get to know her, which can be tough to do. Claudia loves the warmth of the sun, and often volunteers for heavy labor, it helps her forget some things and focus on others. She moves like a bird when she is stressed out, which is more often than she'd like, making her seem more intense than she is.
Background[/u]
Family Members: Jonas and Kelland O'keefe- mother and father, Gavin- younger brother
Reason for Being on the island: grew up on a nearby island, parents died of a mysterious fever, fate of her brother is unknown, she arrived by accident nearly ten years ago
Character History:
Claudia was born in the US but lived in Russia for the first six months of her life, and then on an island, not far from her current home, which her family just called ile de terre...island of earth. Her mother was a well known botanist, her father an oceanographer, and though not educated in formal institutions Claudia was intensely educated by both. Aside from her family the island was very isolated with few visitors. Which made it even more odd that her beloved brother would go missing.
Shortly after, her parents were overcome by a mystery illness that began with a low grade fever and progressed to silent but deep pain that they both could not hide from Claudia though they tried. They left the island in desperation on their boat in the middle of the night trying to make it to a hospital they would never reach. By morning Claudia was 18, and the sole surviving member of her small family. She found herself rescued, and though never the same, part of a new, larger family on this island.
