@HushedWhispers Crap, sorry, an earlier version of the above post mentioned you, I decided to remove it so it won't bother you. I was crediting you for the template of OOC post that I based that one off of, and pleading you not to sue me. XD

I thought it looked familiar and even the character sheet.
Make sure to ask next time, please? I usually say yes. :)

| Personality | First and foremost, Gabby has autism, or more specifically, asperger's syndrome. While it isn't something that really defines her, or something she lets define her, it's something that really has shaped her life, choices and lifestyles as well. As a result of constant alienation, ostracision and bullying in her life, she's rejected the idea of being amongst groups, and has become more paranoid regarding other people, and has become far more insecure than she normally has been. However, this doesn't mean that she shuts out people completely, with animals and people that she trusts and holds close to her heart, she is incredibly grateful for and often shows her love, affection and appreciation for. While she does somewhat understand the concept of empathy, she doesn't exactly know when to shut up, and often times she often thinks other people think like her. As a result, whenever she is with someone she likes or trusts, she often lets them into her life and tries to get them into the things she does as well. In regards to Kirk, however, her dog, she has a strong connection to her puppy. She doesn't see Kirk as a pet, but more of family member, or a little brother of some weird sort. She also enjoys the idea that she's in a story or a movie, and often times she might call out things that happen, or might see things that happen in this very RP coming from a mile away. She's also terrible when it comes to sarcasm, and is terrible at reading microexpressions or tone, however, she knows how to make a few jokes here and there.
| Abilities | Gabby is a rather unique case here, in which she possesses two powers, one of them being perfect sound imitation and the other being an "animal whisperer" of sorts. With her ability to replicate sound perfectly, she could replicate just about any sound she would like, including animal calls, as well as the voices of other people she hears. With this, it enhances her ability to bond with other animals, as well as speak to them on some level. One of the secondary powers that come with this is the ability to hear frequencies that human ears can't hear, and make noises that others cannot pick up. With her connection with animals, her ability to use sound beyond the range of human ears, as well as various body languages, she's able to read animals better than most experts can, and it comes natural to her. She also has a strong bond with her little puppy Kirk as well, to the point where she could actually speak perfect English to Kirk and Kirk would understand her (on the level of basic concepts anyway). She also uses this to "tame" animals (essentially render them non-hostile to herself and other animals in her "pack").
| Limitations | Gabby can only make one sound at a time, and she can only make it as loud as any human could with their own voice. She cannot make a combination of sounds, as her brain is incapable of multitasking. Her ears are also more sensitive as a result of her better hearing (not to mention her autism), and thus it could easily be used against her. Her connections with animals doesn't really have much of a limitation, but she cannot summon animals from miles away. She can only summon animals that hear her cries.
| Place Of Origin | Toledo, Ohio
| Family | Johnny Dickerson - Father, master of Mimicry abilities Zula - Mother, animal whisperer
| History | TBA
| Extra | Gabby is in possession of a cute little pupper named Kirk, who's an incredibly smart dog that detects evil and bullshit when Gabby can't. Gabby has formed such a bond with Kirk that both of them are nearly inseperable, and Kirk almost acts as Gabby's second pair of eyes, ears and a nose, one often helps her find things she loses, or in some other cases, helps her find hidden treasure. But yeah, Kirk is totes adorbz
Also, as a sidenote, I based Gabby incredibly off of myself, an Aspie, in a way, as well as friends I had who also had Asperger's syndrome. Not to mention that the nostalgia behind the primary theme, I knew that song for 18 years. 17 years for Ex Factor.
