Cha Eunae

By Capricorn

• July 22, 2015




Age: 21

Gender: Female

Species: Non-Pony

Appearance: Yeah she's just Lee Ji-eun shoot me.<br />Props to my brother being in love with her and showing her to me.<br /><br />Stands about 5 feet 2 inches, slight build.<br /><br />Since she's homeless, she carries a small canvas sack with her with her only possessions in it. These include:<br /><br />- 3 t-shirts (one white, one red, one yellow)<br />- 1 pair of jeans<br />- 1 pair of denim shorts<br />- 1 pair of khaki capris<br />- her red Converse (only shoes)<br />- 3 pairs of socks and underwear<br />- her mother's wooden rosary <br />- old copy of the Bible <br />- water bottle (usually empty)<br />- flashlight (dead)

Personality: Optimistic: Despite seeing suffering in the world, Eunae believes that only those who take action will be able to end it, and so she tends to take the "glass-half-full" stance. This can be irritating for other heroes as she has difficulty bringing herself to seriously injure others, let alone killing them, believing the best in everybody.<br /><br />Naive: Yes, to go hand in hand with her optimism, Eunae is naive. Because she lived in a church for more than half her life, she tends to be gullible and easy to string along. She's probably not the most trustworthy person to leave extremely important tasks to; she'll do her best but someone else may stray her course.<br /><br />Reactive: Eunae acts before thinking. She is not the best at putting all possibilities in order, and tends to just go with her gut instinct rather than giving pause and considering her options. She's a go-getter for sure.<br /><br />Forgetful: Another reason not to trust her with important stuff...because she'll probably forget the passcode for the secret door in about eight seconds. <br /><br />Hard-headed: It's difficult to get anything past Eunae once she has set her mind to something. Nearly impossible, in fact. Not only that, but she will recklessly throw herself into danger willy-nilly even if it's a bad idea if she feels she can do something.<br /><br />Emotional: If you can spin a sob story you can probably control Eunae easily. She tends to gravitate towards people who are "broken" to try and fix them, and she is also prone to taking things very personally.

Backstory: I'm writing this out in full but since I want to get in on the action as soon as possible:<br /><br />- Born in South Korea but migrated to the United States at the age of 5 with her mother, father, and 8-year-old brother.<br />- Extremely devout family, and brought their children up the same way. Strong connections to their local Catholic church.<br />- When swimming once, drowned for 10 minutes and was brought out dead. When revived, claimed that she had been visited by something "greater".<br />- Turns out that this was probably the case (or something was dormant) because she began displaying light manipulation. Parents first noticed when she turned into a walking glowstick.<br />- Accidentally permanently blinded her brother at the age of 6 while using her powers. Crippled her emotionally.<br />- Church took her in at the age of 7, wanting to assist her in developing her "miracle". Believed that she was destined for something great.<br />- Intense fear of the dark developed during this period, but her abilities only bloomed as she got older, until eventually they decided she was ready to go back into the "real world".<br />- At this point, she was 17. It had been 10 years.<br />- Culture shock upon re-entry into society. Her faith waned for a while as she saw the horrors of humanity that she had been shielded from for so long. Doubted that she could make a difference or that she was special.<br />- The fact that she had hurt her brother as well also made her nervous about herself and her value.<br />- Returned to the church for a while.<br />- Eventually re-found her faith thanks to the people that raised her plus finding forgiveness from her brother when she saw him again.<br />- Moved to a troubled area (Tollopolis) to begin making her own difference in the world, as she has found that that's what she was placed there to do.<br />- Unfortunately, rough start. No formal education means she can't get a job. Currently living in an alleyway with her few possessions, but she couldn't be happier.
