Lara Jean Reynolds
FACE CLAIM: Miley Cyrus
♦ THE BASICS ♦
AGE: 17 (October 31, 1999)
GENDER: Female
ORIENTATION: Heterosexual
POSITION: Bellefonte Academy High School Student (Senior)♦ THE ABILITY ♦
POWER: Enhanced Vision
Lara Jean can see through almost anything, giving her a clear view of what is underneath the flesh and skin. Similar to x-rays, even if the person is clothed, she can see the human bones, soft tissues, skin, organs and whatever that makes up a living thing.
Her vision does not affect the person she is seeing. They would not feel anything differently because of it. It isn't obvious to anyone except for Lara Jean so they also do not know she is viewing them in the way she does, unless she tells them.
Due to little control over her power, her vision works 24/7. She cannot turn it off. Lara Jean is forever doomed to see other people's organs.
LIMITATIONS:
Her enhanced vision only works on living things. She cannot see through opaque objects, like tables, walls, and basically everything else that is a non living thing (except for clothes).
It also does not work on virtual images, such as photographs and videos.
Her vision does not emit any radioactive particles. She cannot kill cancerous cells.
Her vision does not exceed the distance a normal human eye could. So her eyesight travels up to 6 meters (20 feet).
SIDE-EFFECTS:
Whenever Lara Jean tries to exceed her limit, she is mentally exhausted and experiences terrible headaches.
Due to her ability, she is an insomniac. It is hard for her to sleep because whenever she closes her eyes, she can see through her eyelids and that still isn't something she has gotten used to.
She has developed a fear of facing people because she knows she can never view them for how they look to majority of the people.♦ THE CHARACTER ♦
HEIGHT: 5'5"
HAIR COLOR: Light brown
EYE COLOR: Blue
MISC: N/A
PERSONALITY: Due to her inability to control her powers, Lara Jean tries minimize her interaction with anyone she possibly can. She is not fully comfortable with making small talks or any talk really. But if it calls for it, she is mostly looking at anywhere but the person. Some may think it is rude, though Lara Jean prefers them thinking that rather than let them know the real reason why.
Moreover, she lacks social skills, having the tendency to side track from any topic of conversation and a terrible judgement of situations. She isn't a great conversationalist. That is probably another reason why Lara Jean prefers to holes herself up in her room watching the next episode of Flash or something.
The girl has a strong sense of responsibility. When it comes to her academics, her father used to pressure her for results with flying colours but now, she puts that pressure on herself too. Lara Jean is proud of herself to have never played truant.
Besides that, she also feels the responsibility of an older sister, especially towards her younger brother Lister who gets bullied most times. She isn't able to fight his battles, instead she is always there to lend him a shoulder to cry on. She is openly caring when it comes to family.
SECRET(S): She likes the idea of getting a tattoo but at the same time she is horrified by the thought of something permanent on her skin.♦ THE HISTORY ♦
In the Reynolds household, Lara Jean could not say that her childhood was delightful. With a father as strict as hers, from young the girl has been bounded by the rules her father had imposed. It was hard to disobey. It was do this, do that, but never told to go outside and play with the other kids in the neighborhood. However, it was not always dark and gloom. Lara Jean had a caring mother, whom she found solace in, and she bonded well with her siblings, possibly over their fear of their father.
On the night of her 12th birthday, which was also a Halloween night, Lara Jean was given permission to go on her first trick or treating. Filled with excitement, the little girl spent hours in her room picking and trying on costumes after costumes. When it was time to go, she met her siblings downstairs and that was when the strangest thing happened.
Her brother looked very believable in his skeleton costume. It looked so realistic that it was borderline creepy. She told him that, and to her other sibling too because apparently they were wearing the same costume. Her mother came, and then her dad. Weirdly, they all had on the same costume. Lara Jean felt a little hurt that she was not given a heads up to dress similarly. To cut a long story short, she stayed home that night as her parents tried their best to explain the situation to her.
A week later, Lara Jean was off to Bellefonte Academy. She had no problems adapting to the structured life. Pressured since young to perform well in school, she spends more time studying. Plus, with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), Lara Jean puts in double the time and effort - going to the library frequently to make up for the times she spaced out during classes.
Despite almost finishing high school, she has not fully embraced her powers yet. To cope or tolerate with it, the girl had picked up photography as a hobby, mainly because she realized her enhanced vision doesn't work on photos. Her camera is with her almost every hour of the day. She would snap a million shots a day just to see things "normally".♦ THE PLAYER ♦
