EMERSON PRESLIE LA'TAVIA
FEMALE | BISEXUAL |
TWENTY-FIVE | GIFTED |
appearance
Emerson has short black hair with bangs often parted on the right side. Commonly her hair is well-kept and remains in the same style. Rarely does Emerson allow her hair to grow longer that the back of her neck since she considers long hair a nuisance. Her eyes are a gentle aqua green colour and should she speak with someone she usually retains eye contact. Her skin is fair in colour and she sports a black beauty mark above the right side of her lip. She’s commonly wearing a shade of light purple lipstick at all times since she loves the colour.
When it comes to body, Emerson is a fit woman. Her body is covered in lithe muscles and her frame is slender. She has a height of 5’10” making her rather tall for a woman, for a man she would be the average height. Emerson has a noticeable hourglass figure that she tends to flaunt with her clothing choice. These clothing choices consist of white lab coats that are usually tight fitting since she hates loose clothing. Most of her clothing is very reserved and usually shows no cleavage because the concept of people staring at her breasts bothers her. Rarely does Emerson have any dirt smudges on her since she works in the infirmary.

abilities
Life’s Grasp --- Passive --- Medium Control
Emerson is capable of bringing people back from death or when they are on the brink of it, however, this brings much risk for herself. If the person does not want to come back, then the power will fail and she would lose a mass amount of energy. She can only revive people who have been dead for under 10 minutes, any longer and the attempt is a hopeless pursuit. This power requires a lot of focus and energy and Emerson needs to continue using it for about a minute. Should the connection with the person be severed, then she would have to restart and whatever energy she lost during the attempt will be gone. This power has a peculiar knack for splitting injures between her and whoever she is healing. Poison and disease related deaths don’t get halved with her (this is due to her immunity), but injuries do. The patient’s injuries will half heal and Emerson will gain the other half of the injuries.
True Love’s Kiss --- Passive --- No Control
A peculiar power that grants Emerson the ability to heal whoever she kisses, but there is a catch. Her and whoever she kisses must have mutual feelings of intimacy towards each other or the power will fail. Thus Emerson cannot just have a crush on them neither can the other person have just a crush on her. After the kiss all injuries will be healed unless the other has already passed on. The main expense to using this power is that it tends to make Emerson tired after using it and sometimes should the wounds be traumatic enough she will feel sore.
Disease Immunity --- Passive --- Natural
When it comes to disease, Emerson is a lucky sort. The anti-bodies inside her body have altered tremendously and are capable of eliminating various diseases. She’s even capable of eating food that is rotted without receiving any ill effects. This has caused her to be ultimately immune to getting sick or getting infections. However, she can still act as a carrier to these diseases despite her immunity. Her anti-bodies are also incapable of being used in other people since they believe the other person’s blood and various other cells are a threat. Lastly, her disease immunity only continues its function if she is not malnourished, otherwise she could get sick.
background
Emerson was born in Quebec City to her two French Canadian parents. Her mother was a kind and sweet woman who worked in medicine and a father who was teacher. At a young age they began teaching Emerson many things at a very young age. For the most part her brain developed faster than most children and when she entered school she was rather sophisticated for her age. Soon enough classes were not challenging enough and Emerson began getting home schooled under the guidance of her intellectual parents.
She began moving up in the grades very easily, but she lacked social interaction. This caused Emerson to become inept to casual conversation. She would tend to speak bluntly to other children and was generally unfriendly to a majority of the people. However, she did manage to graduate via home schooling at the young age of 14. With the influential powers of her parents alongside their consent, Emerson was admitted into medical school the following year in the city of Nootau. Her and her parents got packed and moved to the small island where Emerson would be attending her university schooling.
Being a 15 year old in university was strange considering many adults threw curious glances her way and constantly questioned her presence in the lessons. It took a good amount of time for things to settle down and that Emerson was actually meant to be there due to her own insistence. For the most part she excelled in her university courses and completed university at the young age of 23 years of age. Once Emerson graduated, she was hasty to get to work in her new life long career and her parents moved back to Quebec City where they felt they belonged. Shortly after graduation she began working with a shipping company where she remained until Madman struck. Her employer was kind enough to offer her a space in a personal bunker she made and Emerson graciously accepted the offer.
When the dust settled and it was time to leave the bunker, Emerson remained with the group. All the while she discovered her various new capabilities, like her strange knack for not getting sick despite being around patients all day. Whenever people got hit with a mass flu bug, Emerson never felt herself get sick even though she was constantly around the disease. One day she got misinformed that some water had been boiled and when they came to tell her otherwise, they discovered she was completely fine. The testing went further and it was found that unlike everybody else, Emerson was capable of eating rotten food.
When December came along and the group was lead towards the Aimon Settlement, she followed. Her admittance to the settlement was simple since her powers were passive and not seen as a threat alongside the fact that she had a medical background. It did not take long for Emerson to become the doctor of the Aimon Settlement and she has remained in that position since.
