This is an RP journal for an original character of mine. Mun and muse over 18. Alicia Witt has nothing to do with this, just borrowing her face.

General information.

Name: Siobhan Aitken

Age: Twenty-something (might depend a little on verse but somewhere around 23-24)

Appearance: Not exactly tall, though not super-short either, about 5'3. Red hair that tends to want to be a mess and can't quite decide if it wants to be curly or not. Brown eyes, very pale skin that does indeed freckle if she's out in the sun. She has quite a lot of scars, partly from a bad childhood and partly for just being really good at ending up in trouble, plus being a definite outdoors kind of girl. Figure-wise she... doesn't really have much of anything. Small breasts, narrow hips and not much ass to speak of.

General personality: Kind, loving and helpful with a tendency to be somewhat silly when there's time for it. She has a habit of "picking up strays" though that one does vary across verses. Family Verse Siobhan being the "worst" with that. She is extremely egalitarian and will extend the same kindness to all so long as they don't try to hurt her or anyone she cares about. She is very independent, in a way, and especially gets her hackles up if anyone tries to claim that she belongs to any deity. She loves movies and comic books, would love books too if she wasn't pretty terrible at both reading and writing. Though it isn't exactly a personality trait, you really never ever want to hear her sing. It's bloody awful.

Brief history: She was born in Scotland as the youngest of six children. Her parents had already separated at the time and she was the result of some "sex with your ex". Her parents did not deal well with her abilities, and despite the fact that she had great difficulties focusing in school because of what she could constantly pick up from everyone else, they did not seek alternatives for her, preferring to try to ignore the issue. She was beaten and bullied a lot, and that too went ignored. She was estranged from her brothers, never allowed to touch them lest she might read their minds or transfer her own thoughts to them. When she was eighteen she left her home and started traveling, a habit she'd picked up from her mother who'd often taken the children on trips all over Great Britain. She has seen a lot of the world in the years since, always on the move and scraping by on what little money she could muster up.

Powers: Powerful empath who is absolute crap at shielding, a bit of a telepath if she is allowed to touch. Improvisational magic user, calls herself witch because that's the best word she's found. Her favourite medium to work with is gemstones, but the important element is really that she's crafting something with her hands. She needs to eat A LOT, and tends to prefer things with lots of sugar in. She also gets flashes of insight, not quite seeing the future, more like... guidelines about where she should go or what she should do. She can communicate with anything that is alive on some level, and weirdly enough she understands what all animals say but not what all people say. She doesn't know how that one works either. She can also talk to shapeshifters when they are in animal form.

Verses

Reboot/Meme verse: What it says on the tin, this is a rebooted Siobhan with no verse-strings attached.

Family Verse:

If a post isn't marked as anything else, this is the verse Siobhan generally operates within. She lives in Count D's petshop with her brother Lester and daughter Adie. She's in a relationship with a young man called Aidan and will soon be opening a shop of her own.

Family situation bilologically is separated parents and five older brothers, she doesn't speak to any of them.

She was born in Scotland, still speaks with a clearly recognizable accent. Getting through school was very difficult for her and she still doesn't read or write very well.

Crossroads:

Siobhan is a wandering spirit, always strapped for cash and always looking for that next place to go. She's a bit of a hobo, a lot of a hippie and makes her best friend Vance sigh. A lot.

Famiy situation: Only child, grew up in the highlands, in her teens she ended up with the nature god D.

Take my Love:

In this verse she makes her living as a mechanic, still is an empath and all the other stuff. Basically the same girl personality wise, but she's from a planet called Alba, a place where they're all about preserving the old Scottish heritage so her accent is incredibly strong since what's spoken in that little corner of the 'verse is mainly Scottish Gaelic and Scots.

She's had a somewhat better childhood than her main continuity version, having an adoring father and a brother who she was joined at the hip with until the day he left their home.

The Siobhan files:

Basically the same general background as Family Siobhan but in this little verse she ended up with Harry Dresden.
