Name: Deja Sorensen
Age:18
Member Group:(if you choose human, please say what kind of human...or a shifter, what kind of shifter, etc.) Shifter, mostly house cats, but she can do a lot of different animals like Sam and Daphne. Deja just chooses the least conspicuous animal.
Character History: Deja was born in Norway to a mother who died while giving birth and to a father who would rather sell the baby then take care of it himself. Deja was sold on the adoption black market to a very loving, wealthy, yet unknowing couple from Shreveport Louisiana USA. She grew up knowing there was something different inside of herself, but was not sure what it was or how to find out. Deja ran away from home at the age of 14, after finding out she was adopted when the man who set things up for her parents was arrested and everything he had done came into the light. Wanting to find out more about her own history, Deja used money she had in a trust fund to buy her way to Norway where she lived on the streets and absorbed the culture and legend. How she came to shift for the first time was from fear. Living on the streets was not always safe or easy for a young girl. And so while running away from some older kids, she was cornered in a back alley with some normal house type cats. Frantic and scared she thought that if she could change shapes she would become one of those cats and no one would even look twice at her. So her favorite shape was born and Deja used it often to slip away from unwanted situations, or to even slip into places unnoticed to gain things she wanted. On her 18th birthday, Deja saw an American TV add about missing teens in the Shreveport area and the devastated parents who just wanted their son to come home. This made Deja think of her own adoptive parents and her heart broke thinking of the pain they must have gone through when we ran away. Deja then found passage back to America with the help of her shifting and getting onto trains, boats, cargo trucks and the like, making it all the way back to Shreveport where she made plans to meet once more with the only people who ever showed her love.
Personality: Deja is a shy and quiet person who will often keep to herself and out of any kind of spotlight there is. She does however know everything that is happening around her as she is forever watching, listening and keeping track of what goes on around her. Having lived on city street in Norway for 4 years, she has learned to take care of herself first before other people and keep herself safe, so there is a small amount of coldness in her personality when it comes to others. However, she also grew up with very loving and doting parents, so the warmth they showed to Deja is still inside of her as well.
Future Plans for your characterDeja plans on meeting up with her parents again and building back the bond she remembered as a child. Even though she was torn and hurt when she found out she was a baby who was purchased for adoption, she does not blame her parents and has come to accept who and what she is over the years. After that she plans on finding more people like her as a shifter, or different in other ways as she has met vampires back in Norway.
Have you read the books Not yet, but plan on it. I have seen every episode of True Blood a few times over though.
Sample RP *Deja's first shift* Her breath puffed out in a mist in front of her face as she huddled in the corner of the dead end alley. They were going to find her, she just knew that they would. And when she couldn't give them what they wanted, like money, she just knew she was in for another beating, and maybe they would kill her this time. Goosebumps rose up on her skin making her shiver not only from the cold of winter, but in fear of what was to come. Looking around her, thinking perhaps there was a way out of this, Deja's crystal green eyes focus on one of the alley cats sitting on a dumpster licking its paw. Now that would be perfect if she could change and shift shape into something like that. Then that gang after her would never find her. She had heard stories on the streets from people who claim to know someone who can change shape, or about these people who suck the blood of living creatures, and even about people who can do great magic, but she had never met anyone like that herself.
Deja focused in on the alley cat, her breathing becoming a little quicker and her heart beating a little faster. This was stupid, she should be running and finding another place to hide rather then sitting here wishing she could turn into a cat. It was then she heard the footsteps of the people chasing her and the voices that went along with those footsteps. It was then that it felt like something clicked inside of her and in frantic desperation for survival she felt a shift inside of her body. She started to feel this heat, a burning heat grow from the pit of her stomach and flow outward over the rest of her body to where it felt like sparks were coming out from her fingertips. In a panic she looked at her hands, but they were just her normal looking hands, except her normal looking hands started to change and curl up forming small furred paws just like a cat. Frightened beyond anything else she had ever experienced, Deja shook her hands/paws thinking she was hallucinating or dreaming or something, but they remained the small cat paws she originally saw. Her eyes widened, her heart seemed like it was going to explode out of her chest and her whole body arched in extreme pain that bordered on extreme pleasure as well. Opening her mouth, Deja was about to let out a scream to release the pressure that she felt building inside of her body, but the only sound that came out was a small meow as things seemed to pop around her.
It felt like she was struck by lightning, her body still tingling and the electric feeling still making her skin tingle. A few second go by and Deja is able to focus her eyes and gain some clarity in her mind about what just happened to her in that unbelievable moment. Then just as she was about to take a step from her little hiding place in the corner of the alley, the gang that was chasing her rounded the corner of that same alley looking for her. In a surprise act, Deja found herself, or rather her cat self, letting out a hiss to show her distaste for those people. Shaking her head and blinking a few times she thought to herself, "what the heck was that about?"
Noticing that the gang members were not even paying any attention to the alley cat, Deja crawled on her tummy under the same dumpster that the cat was on that she saw right before she shifted. Huddled down and still shaking, she watched the feet of the gang as her brain tried to process what just happened to her body. One of the only thoughts that came to her mind at that moment was, "This is right, it feels right. I can shape shift, oh my god. Wait, what is that smell? Gross! Is that a mouse? Dinner...oh wait! No, no eating mice, you are still human...kinda."
