[u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 16

[u][b]Abilities:[/b][/u]

[b]Animal Spirits:[/b] By channeling the spirits of the animal world, Zoey can, for a limited time, inherit the genetic abilities of an animal spirit for a multitude of purposes outside of combat. There are certain conditions to this power: she must be wearing a channeling device (a magically imbued belt buckle) to be able to use a spirit, she can only be channeling one spirit at a time, and she cannot channel a spirit for too long or risk losing herself to an animalistic state.

[i]List of Spirits:[/i]

- African Ostrich (Zoey is able to run at speeds of over 50 mph for an extended period of time. He kicking power is also increased)

- Spider Monkey (Zoey becomes extremely acrobatic and agile, her reflexes also increase)

- African Elephant (Zoey gains an incredible amount of strength, endurance, and power, and is also difficult to knock over)

- Swordfish (Zoey can swim through water at incredible speeds)

- Scarlet Macaw (Zoey can recite phrases others have said in a perfect imitation of their voice)

- Bengal Cat (Zoey develops night vision)

- Gray Wolf (Zoey can track the scents of others)

- Eastern Mole (Zoey is able to dig through soft earth in seconds. Although this spirit blinds her while in use, her sense of touch and hearing are greatly enhanced)

((More spirits are to be acquired throughout her time as an Interference))

[b]Animal Speak:[/b] Zoey, due to her attunement to the spirits of animals, can quickly learn how to talk in the language of virtually any animal she meets just by hearing them, and in turn converse with them as if they were human.

[b]Wilderness Expert:[/b] Having lived in the swamps of Louisiana for most of her life, Zoey learned to rely on Mother Nature for her survival. She has the knowledge to not only survive in the wild, but thrive. Her skills include: identifying various plants and creating remedies from them or determining if they are edible or not, building a shelter with materials from the environment, moving stealthily through the area, and finding the best places to hide from danger.

[u][b]Personality:[/b][/u]

Zoey can best be described as calm, collected, and easy going individual. When she's feeling good, it can be as if she's in her own little world, away from all trouble or worry. In such a mood, Zoey is normally cheerful and kind. These emotions are more prominent in the outside world, where she feels most at home, or if the day's events are going well.

When she's feeling down, however, Zoey is more likely to be agitated or restless, as if she wants to hurry up and fix the problem ailing her, and she would normally do so with a fierce determination. Emotions like these would occur when Zoey is indoors for an extended period of time, or when everything is going wrong.

Being a natural born child at heart, Zoey is full of a seemingly endless curiosity of the unknown. If there's a secret to be known, Zoey will want to know it, no matter how badly anyone else might want to keep it hidden. This can result in her resorting to underhanded tactics (such as lying and pestering) in order to learn whatever forbidden knowledge she's wanting to know about.

Zoey is a pacifist, and as such, she is afraid of conflict along with disliking it. If a fight can be avoided, she will do whatever she can to keep out of it. If a fight does break out, Zoey will either run the first chance she gets, or at least dodge and weave around her attacker until an opportunity to escape presents itself.
