The Basics
Name: Brooke Margaret Llewelyn
Nicknames: Maggie, though she hates that name
Age: 17
Orientation: Bisexual
Desired Rank/Job: Student
Powers: Shapeshifting - She transforms into a cougar. An extra benefit to this power is that she can control how far along and which parts she wishes to shape-shift. Yes, this means that she will sometimes wander around with only cat ears.
Side-effects: Instincts of the puma tend to be pretty strong with her the more she shifts. As she has not completely controlled those instincts, Brooke has restricted herself to shifting as little as possible. Also, the more she tries to control the shift to be special, the more she gets a craving for red meat. Ravenously so.

The Details
Hair Color: Varies, naturally brown but will dye it red on occasion
Eye Color: Blue-grey
Any Piercings? ear-lobes
Any Tattoos? none
Any Scars? Gash across her stomach with a story behind it.
General Appearance:
Brooke is a slim little girl with no hips and a small chest she's perfectly happy with. She has a bit of a baby face to go along with her baby blue eyes which often makes her look even younger than she really is. And standing at only 5'3", it's no surprise that she still thought to be a kid....well, she is a kid, but she'll still take offense if you tag her as anything younger than she really is. Her cheeks tend to dimple up whenever she smiles whether it be for fun or for faking away her life. Brooke likes to play with her hair, often changing it on a whim to be long and straight, short and curly, or adorned with shiny red highlights. She likes to keep it on the dark side, though, since it goes better with her eyes.
Her dress also varies, even more than her hairstyle. When she's feeling in a good mood, Brooke breaks out the sequins and party-girl outfits, lots of which do their best to emphasize her slender figure. When she's feeling more flatlined, Brooke goes with the simple t-shirt and jeans combo, nothing spectacular. This is her image when classes are in session, though either way, she may change outfits several times a day until she finds one that fits her mood.
Personality:
Being around Brooke is like being on a roller coaster, with ups and down and sudden plummets of hair raising excitement that you might see coming but just can't do anything about. Brooke rarely listens to reason and often just goes with whatever she wants to do, most of which involves going to clubs and dancing her heart out at a rave party. And while she doesn't listen to other people cautions or do a damn thing they tell her, Brooke has a very keep ability to "motivate" people into follow along with her and her high risk activities. They tend to go along with her if just to make sure she doesn't actually hurt herself.
Unfortunately, what goes up must also come down, so every so often, Brooke will crash down to a point low enough to balance out her manic sprees. During these episodes, she gets pretty quiet and will often just stay in her room, isolating herself from the world. Sometimes she'll use the time to catch up in her studies, but for the most part, Brooke just curls up and sleeps. If you happen to interact with her, she seems more like a normal person, not at all like the party-girl she is normally.

Secret:Brooke used to deny herself food for a while. It was a form of self-punishment that she though was a better idea than cutting, which hurt too much and she'd have to cover up the scars later. She still does this from time to time. Brooke has also considered suicide, but wouldn't ever go through with it because it is definitely a sin which would land her in Hell.

History
Brooke comes from a traditional Catholic family, hailing from the suburbs of Denver, Colorado. She lived a pretty normal, straight-laced life throughout her childhood; good grades, well-tempered, girl scouts, said her prayers every night..."normal" stuff. Not one person in her family had ever manifested as a meta before and the religious community she lived in were such that, while they didn't treat them poorly or horribly discriminate against them, they still preached that there was something wrong with them...like gays and jews and anyone else who was different. They were seen as lost souls who deserved their pity and prayers to hopefully be cured and saved by the Lord.
Fast forward to the day Brooke manifested her power. She was camping with the Girl Scouts shortly after her 13th birthday when their camp was invaded by a black bear. The fear and instinct to defend herself caused her to transform and fight the bear. She didn't remember much after that, only that she woke up with the paramedics about to take her to the hospital to treat a gash that had been made across her stomach. It was so painful, but not as much as the horrified stared she got from her "friends" at the realization that she was now one of those "sinners". She cried until she slept again. When Brooke woke once more, she was in the hospital with her parents being talked to by Hammel recruiters. She begged them to not send her away. She made promises to never use it, that she was going to do her best to be normal, and that nobody needed to know. Brooke felt that she was being sent away because she was no longer pure of heart, and that she would never be able to walk with God in her present state.
For the past 4 years, Brooke has been a student at Hammel. She was not so much a troublemaker as much as she was a potential risk for self-harm. What only made it worse were the emerging cycles of mania and depression in her behavior. While she is still far from grace and being completely comfortable with her present self, Brooke has been receiving periodic counseling/psychiatric sessions for the past year and a half while at Hammel to help her work through her issues and hopefully "cure" her.
Roleplay Example
Brooke threw her arms up around her dance partner and ran her fingers down the sides of his head and to his chest, where he sported a black mesh shirt. He grinned, thinking he was definitely gonna get some tonight, and offered to buy her a drink.
"Sure." Brooke smiled back up. Not bad, but as she danced with him, she noticed he didn't smell right. Not bad, mind you, but not a good target. As he left to the bar, she made sure to move on to someone else.
Her new toy couldn't just be anyone. Even Brooke had to hunt for a while before she found one up to her standards. That's when she used her nose, to find someone who could give her a great time but wasn't gonna be all clingy. Mr. Metal-head was a clinger, definitely.
Moving through the crowd, she tried to sort out all the different scents of men and women alike. Too horny, too gay, already committed, HIV(not that it mattered), too kinky, too abusive....daaaaamn!
Then she got a whiff of something out of place in the bar scene. Graphite? And the sense that she was being watched. Surrounded by a jumping and dancing crowd, Brooke turned her head, letting her long straight hair whip about her shoulders, looking for the source.
There he was.
As she spotted the guy in the corner who was cradling a large sketch pad, her earlier clingy guy returned with a drink. Grabbing the drink and ignoring him, Brooke took off to get a better look at this Picasso, sipping on the Sex on the Beach cocktail through the skinny straw.
"Whatcha drawin'," Brooke boldly popped the question one she was in hearing distance. Which was very close.
