Cori Woods
Scathing eyes ask that we be symmetrical, one sided and easily processed.

Height/Weight: 5'8" / 120 lbs
Hair: Long and straight white hair

Physical Description: Due to her albinism, Cori is almost always given a second glance. Her extremely fair complexion and white hair is stunning to say the least. Vanilla, she may look sickly to those who don't understand why she looks the way she does, but she is very conscientious of her appearance: her makeup adds a healthy color to her face and darkness to her lips and eyelashes. Her haunting red eyes are almost always hidden behind stereotypical Men in Black sunglasses, partly to protect them against the sun, but also because she's self conscious about the strange color. She stands tall for a woman at 5'8", and she has a lean, boyish figure. Underneath the clothing, her body is hard with muscle. As for the clothes themselves, Cori wears enough to conceal a weapon even in civilian life. At work, she wears suits.
Day-to-day Wardrobe: Off duty, Cori continues to dress conservatively, but she is surprisingly stylish and feminine.
Typical equipment: Handgun & badge
B I O
Personality: Cori's personality is straight forward and one can take a guess just observing her gait: she walks tall and proud, a frown on her lips. As one might judge, she's confident--often arrogant--and lacks a sense of humor. It may be because of her gender and young age in this particular career, but she is conscious about how she presents herself and takes the job seriously. She is rarely caught relaxing or slacking off, and she wants her immediate environment in her control. Despite all this, she is caring to people. She's generous, and can be surprisingly warm at times. There is also underlying insecurity, of course, but she is strong and pushes such thoughts aside in order to reach her goals. Doing excellent in all aspects of life gives her self worth. Beyond her core personality, her interests include cars, guns, and classic country music.
Skills/Talents: • Amateur automechanic: Cori had always been a bit of a tomboy, and one her leisure hobbies include cars: fixing them, driving them, and buying them. As a result, she has the skills to take care of of them and keep up on maintenance herself.
• Incredible marksmanship: If it weren't for her goals, she may have taken a more combative approach to her career, but she can already out shoot a majority of her coworkers.
• Hand-to-hand combat: While Cori isn't outstanding in this area compared to other agents, it's a necessary skill within the field. Influence from martial arts is seen in her combative style, but the physical training has benefited her moreso in stamina and endurance rather than strength.
• Leadership skills: Professionally, Cori will not hesitate to be critical of another person or suggest what they should or should not do. She is well spoken and blunt when angered. She is not the most charismatic leader, but she is practical and straight forward and is comfortable telling others what to do.
• Bilingual: English is her first language, French her second out of choice. In her time in the government, she has also learned Russian and Mandarin, and she's working on Arabic.
Weaknesses:• Albinism: affects her eyesight and therefore her marksmanship. She is required by her job to have an eye examination every six months and earlier if she suspects she'll need a change in prescription. She, of course, wears contacts (or glasses on those rare days she's lounging about the house).
• Youth: Cori may be approaching 30, but she has taken on a position that could've been handed onto an agent with more years and experience. However, her adoptive father works a little higher up in the hierarchy, and she has demonstrated her ambition in properly serving her country. She'll work with something to prove.
• Tobacco: A nasty habit, but Cori does smoke. She smokes 2-3 cigarettes a day, but has been trying to cut back, if not quit.
• Unlikable: Cori is not very charismatic. She's stubborn and can be relentless petty when she feels personally attacked. On a personal, one-on-one level she is difficult to get along with, and she strives in professional environments over personal life.
Likes: Cars, guns, country music, strawberry-chocolate desserts
Dislikes: Supers, harm to innocent people, dishonesty
Goals: Rise through the government ranks and make her mark like her father did before her while defending innocent Americans from supers and their godlike powers.
Fears: Heights terrify Cori. She's also, of course, afraid of failure and looking like a fool in front of others. She's very prideful.
Family: Adopted Fathers, most notable being Damon Woods--retired government agent, infamous for his ruthlessness against supers. Her familial connection creates mixed reactions among her coworkers: some go out of their way to respect her, but others are rather disdainful of her rank, believing it to be a result of her father.
Education: Other than being trained to be a weapon of the government, Cori has a very well rounded education: high school, college, and army experience all factor into the woman she is today.
