Name: Catalina “Cat” Matthews
Gender: Female
Age: 24
Personality: Cat is very outgoing and has a bubbly personality. She doesn’t generally take things too seriously, and has a very “be fine” attitude—meaning if you ask her if she wants to do something, she’ll generally say, “Be fine.” Cat is very loyal to the few people in her life and can be a bit obsessive. She values honesty above all else, and believes it is the basis of any healthy relationship. Cat is very naïve about the world, but doesn’t let that keep her from having fun.

Hometown: Waycross, Georgia
Occupation: Artist
Powers: Healing . . . though it comes with a price; whenever she heals someone or something, she takes their ailment into her, so another part of her ability is that she heals quickly, but is not invulnerable.
Other: She is not fully aware of this ability yet, and believes it to simply be the result of positive thinking and a caring touch.
((Woolfie; I think it would be funny to have her interact every once in a while with seven, since their personalities are so different, might make for some amusing scenes, if you're interested.))

((Yeah, it's good- just one thing :) being able to lie perfectly isn't much of a superpower so you can leave that out. Detecting lies, on the other hand, is fine))

And I agree with Candace, we should figure out some information first before starting the role-play...
@ Mariah: I did my intro last night; but I just kept it clear of anything that would give away a town. I definitely want a little more information before I post anything else, but I wanted to get started :).

Isabella, picking up on Mariah's point, you may want to consider;
Polygraphy= aka lie-detecting
related powers could be
Silvertongue= able to make whatever she says true, kind of like Rumour in the Umbrella Academy comics
Command= can compel people to tell the truth by looking at them or when they hear her voice
Ah, yes. But I despise the edit button ;). I'll use if I need to, though.

My dear Candace, there is nothing the matter with owing up to ones mistakes or imperfections; in fact the very owing up to it indicates a desire for perfection. Mistakes occur, my goodness yes, but it is how we respond to them that indicates how perfect or otherwise we are.
Teehee. I like that, Woolfie :).
(is now using edit button)
I am a perfectionist, so I try to make sure everything I post is the way I want it before I post it. I have--on occasion--had people edit a post that I responded to previously, and it makes my response seem foolish or otherwise unwarranted. That is the only reason I don't like the edit button :).

I would have to agree with you there, and vice versa of course ;if they point out a mistake and you edit it away it runs the risk of making them look a tad daft too:p
I don't edit my mistakes away :P. I just say, "Whoops", and make my correction in a new post, but that's just me :P.
And you sound a little parental, but that's not a bad thing :). Sometimes, I get the feeling I'm so much older than everyone on here. It's a little overwhelming.

On the other hand, I see people talking in complete dim sentences like "ok" and even typing lyk dis nd mking no sense at all. *shrug*

Okay, that's fine :) I don't think I'll post much yet because I want my starter to really be a starter with information, if that makes sense. So once we get into the plot and how they'll all be kidnapped and whatsoever, I'll put my charries in a place they should start out at
It's hard to find a lot of people who seem to value proper grammar and punctuation. I try to check over everything before I post, but mistakes happen. :P

Sades: Lol you're fine! :D I'm glad that you joined anyway *grins*

Sades: Lol you're fine! :D I'm glad that you joined anyway *grins*
@ Mariah: Yeah, in this writing group I'm in, everyone calls me the Grammar Nazi :P.
Teehee. Well, I'm not mean about it; I'm just . . . very diligent :).

Oh, well...I won't ask then :P. Talking to people on here has been an eye-opener since most of them are using English as a second language.

O.M.G. I have see the accept/except thing so much lately. I have to fight the urge to tell them when is see it.
