Personality:
Claire is as sweet as they come. Despite her upbringing, She's friendly, happy, and always tries to keep things in a lighter mood. She doesn't handle conflict and arguing well, and will often times go to great lengths to prevent it or stop it. The only thing she hates worse than arguing is when her friends are arguing, and she doesn't know who's side to take or what to say. It's hard to push her buttons and make Claire angry, but when you do, you'd best prepare yourself. Claire can't stand racism or bullying of any kind, and will often times start fights with the guilty party. She's wound up in quiet a few bad fights and in the back of a few police cars due to her distaste for discrimination.
History:
Claire was born in to a mixed household. Her uncle was a Faunus, and so was her cousin, but she was born without the tell-tale ears or tail, or any defining animal features. She loved both her uncle and her cousin dearly, and actually envied the latter because she thought his horns were pretty cool. This mixed household, of course, lead to her support of Faunus rights. The 'Human' side of her family received quiet a bit of flack from both other Humans and Faunus, due to their mindset, but they always fought for equal rights. Her cousin, who was a few years older than her, started training to become a member of Beacon. Claire, on the other hand, was turning in to quiet the little dancer. She had found her passion, while her cousin found his own.
However, disaster struck one day. She and her cousin were at a sit-in when the police attacked. The police, being the bigoted, Ignorant people they were thought that the Faunus had kidnapped Claire, and wasted no time beating down the Faunus. Her cousin died that day, trying to keep her safe, right before Claire's eyes. The police brought her back to the station, and when her parents learned of what happened were nearly arrested themselves. Of course, the police got off free of charge, and Claire was left scarred. She didn't speak for months, and was pretty much a vegetable for quiet some time.
Her uncle one day stopped by the house and left a package for Claire; A birthday present from her Cousin that was never delivered. It was an invitation to join him in training to be a member of Beacon. Claire had expressed her envy at his combat skills multiple times, and now, months later, she was recieving something amazing from her deceased Cousin. It was a wake-up call. Claire threw herself in to training, combining her ballet and dancing to create her style of combat. She received a set of weapons specially made for this, and has worked hard to get to the initiation ceremony.
Semblance: Gravity. Claire can shift her center of gravity to almost any point on her body. She can pull off impossible feats of balance with this power, and, when combined with her gymnastics, turns her in to a capable defender for her team.
