Name: Nia Willows
Age: 17
Gender:Female
Anima: Octopus
Marking: Three black circle markings on her left wrist.
Abilities: Can change the color, pigment and shape of her body and face (however, she can not imitate certain body types if she lacks the muscle mass to do so.. this means she can't imitate fat people or extremely tall people). She is capable of painlessly delivering venom capable of killing most creatures. She can flatten her body to fit through very tight spaces, and use her suction cups to climb. If she does not want to be seen then she can blend into her surroundings, and is even capable of copying textures, and patterns(though she has trouble with certain patterns (like checkerboard). Sometimes her emotions get the better of her and she will flash colors depending on her mood. If she is startled she will revert to her original human form. She can also shoot ink when she is afraid and has automatizing limbs. (this basically means she can tear off her arms and they will grow back, however this takes time.) She has not mastered any of these abilities just yet, and frequently makes mistakes.
Personality: Nia is rather mysterious and appears to have a calming, soothing effect on those around her. She can be a bit blunt at time when making observations.
History: Nia was born into poverty, in the upper portion of the slums. She had a mother, a father, and a younger sister named Beatrice. Her father was an abusive drug addict who would hurt Nia, her mother, and Beatrice whenever he would get angry. Nia and Beatrice's only escape was when their mother took them to the Aquarium. It was a rare treat to see the creatures of the deep, and for a while, they could pretend they weren't constantly living in fear. There was also lots of food to eat here, people would throw away perfectly good food, and Beatrice and Nia would just eat until their stomachs were full to burst.
Beatrice was far weaker than Nia, being two years younger. Nia made the choice to say sarcastic things to her father, causing him to vent his beatings onto her instead of her sister. When Nia turned six, her father went on a rampage. He started breaking things, shoved Nia's mother down a flight of stairs and threw Beatrice into a kitchen cabinet. Fearing for her life, Nia picked up a kitchen knife. As her father lunged at her, she held the knife in two hands and flinched. However, the blow never came, and she opened her eyes just in time to see the light die from her Father's eyes. Her mother went into panic mode and disposed of all the evidence, burying the knife in a construction yard and dumping his body into a ravine in the slums.
Without their father supporting them, they immediately fell on hard times. Even worse was when Beatrice came down with a deadly illness. They were unable to do a thing as they watched Beatrice waste away and finally die. Before she left, she spread the disease to Nia and her mother. Knowing they would not survive, Nia's mother scraped together the last of their funds and took Nia to the Aquarium. Not wanting her daughter to die the same way Beatrice did, Nia's mother dumped the extremely weak Beatrice into the fish tank. Instead of dying as her mother had planned, Nia gained her anima.
When Nia made her way home from the Aquarium, she found her mother had hung herself, leaving a handwritten note detailing her shame and guilt. So Nia was left on her own. She was soon found and captured by slavers who put her put her up for auction on the black market. After seeing what she could do, the nearby owner of the brothel bought Nia with the plans to transform her into the perfect pleasure slave. Nia refused her first customer and was given lashes as punishment. In the middle of her beating, an assassin leaped through the window and slit the throat of the owner of the brothel. She begged the assassin to take her with him. (because anything was better than this life). After learning of her abilities to change the shape of her face and body, the Assassin agreed and took her under his wing, taking him to his guild where she is currently in training.
