Special Abilities:
Despite her "special" abilities, Azii considers her rationale to be her greatest asset. But if it must be known (of course it does, haha) Azii has a bit of a green thumb...to say it lightly--she has the ability to manipulate nature.

The only problem with her ability is that without physical contact with nature--feet or hands touching any source of nature--she is unable to do these manipulations. Which is why Azii will always have a pair of gloves and booties on her--she prefers working as a "normal" human.

History:
Seeing as how her parents and older brother (Uze Ange Astrai) disappeared on her at the age of 4, Azii never did witness what a family felt like nor did she remember her own family. she grew up being passed around from foster home to foster home, not knowing what a stable family felt like. after many years, azii gave up on the idea of having a family and started believing that having a "family" is unimportant because people waste away in trying to feel a sense of belonging--all anybody needs is themselves.

but of course azii is human. occasionaly azii would have a feeling of loneliness that she couldnt explain. but soon after she felt that loneliness, azii excused it as some strange heart palpitation.

furthermore, it was not until her 16th birthday that Azii noticed something "special" about her. it all happened on a nature hike with her junior class. the teacher thought it would be a great idea if everyone participated in a game of treasure hunt. which was all in all a terrible idea but azii loved it because she knew no one would want to work with her knowing that she loved working according to her own standards. you see, azii never really asked for help, nor did she like having someone boss her around because the majority of these "leaders" used their gut feelings to lead their hunt and that was not rational. a gut cannot guide. and so the treasure hunt started...it was not until three hours later that azii realized that someone had given her a fake map and she was lost. it was starting to get dark and without proper equipment, azii had no choice but to make or find shelter.
lo and behold, it started raining quite terribly, things couldnt get worse. but it did. azii tripped over some roots and twisted her ankle. since she didnt have any kind of support, azii was left with crawling as her option of transportation to find a shelter since making one seemed impossible at this moment.
twenty minutes after her ankle incident she saw a hollow tree and decided to get closer but before she could reach it, she heard noises that made her freeze on the spot. as she slowly turned to see what it was that made that noise, a wild animal was already charging at her in full speed and right as it was about to pounce on her azii screamed and swayed one arm across her face for some kind of shield awaiting for impact. but all she hear was a yelp and a thud. as she uncovered her eyes she couldnt believe what was in front of her. it was a huge tree root...and right below it was the wild cat that was moaning in pain. she couldnt believe it...she was able to manipulate nature...

of course, after she was found and treated, azii wanted to figure out if she really did have this ability. like a scientist...azii experimented on herself. but she hated the fact that there was no rational reasoning behind her ability and since she knew that her ability only worked when she was in direct contact with nature, she always wore gloves and boots, hiding and preventing any "accidents" from happening.

but of course, azii continued to work diligently, there was not a moment in where no one found azii in the labs. she was quite the science nerd and she loved health sciences. it was not until the beginning of senior year that the hype of college and graduation was being passed about the halls. after a long search of nearby colleges and universities, azii came across The University of Penrose. this school had prestige in many fields but only one caught her eye, nursing. and she was accepted.


Personality: Azii is quite the distant and seemingly "cold" lady. This is only because she tries to rationalize everything that crosses her path. nonetheless, azii does have a soft spot...somewhere in her small frame. she can only wonder what brave soul (even though she doesnt believe that there are souls without tangible evidence) is willing to find it.

Study/Work: Azii is currently working on her Nursing degree. She works part-time at a local seamtresses shop.
(Kitty, should i describe this shop?)

Looking good there, liking the plant thing ^^

And about the shop.. If it's inside Penrose, it would be nice if you could describe it just a little? Otherwise there's no need =P
