[/i][/size][/right]The Basics
Name: Nina Elizabeth Hart Levitra
Nicknames: Dizzy Lizzy, Chicken, That One, Mascot
Age: 24
Orientation:Heterosexual
Desired Rank/Job: Local
Powers: Shapeshifting of sorts. For some reason, she can only shift into black things, and her specialty is... well, a chicken. She actually spends most of her time as said chicken.
Play By: Felicia Day. And that chicken.
The Details
Hair Color: Red, black feathers
Eye Color: Excellent question. Let's pretend blue-black.
Any Piercings? Ears and bellybutton as a human.
Any Tattoos? A nautical star on her left shoulder. Seems like everyone has those nowadays.
Any Scars? Not anymore!
General Appearance: As a human, she's kind of pretty, favoring letting her hair hang down and just blow around in the wind. Normally she can't be bothered with makeup, but Nina's sure that a smile is all she needs, and normally it is. She also is quite fond of her eyebrows, whch add to her quirky face. She's 5'5" and pretty fit from running around all day, and doesn't miss a chance to show off her shiny bellybutton to the world. Especially boys.
As for clothes, Nina is super into patterns. Plaid, tye-dye, leopard or even stripedy stripe stripes, all of them make her heart feel super happy. Jeans are a friend, but anything she can run around in is perfectly okay as well. Dresses and bright girls colors are fun, and so are subduded tones, just depending on what she can throw together that day. Nina isn't the best at matching, but she tries to keep a basic color so she doesn't clash too badly. But only when she cares!
As a chicken, Nina is pretty basic. Her feathers are normally rather ruffled and black, and she's normally just had a dust bath, so look out for a little cloud of chickeny goodness. She has yellow-orange legs and a bit of an awkward strut. But hey, she a chicken! Who doesn't know what a chicken looks like?
Personality:
Nina is a free spirit of the highest degree, in a bit of an awkward way. She does what she wants, says what she wants and is what she wants, thanks to the power of shapeshifting. See a black cat around town? That may well be Nina hunting down mice. Catch a glimpse of a black rat? She won't bite guys, its just Nina! Really, she does things without thinking too much, a pretty whimsical gal.
Nina can be a bit overwhlming at times, and has trouble following a train of conversation. She had ADD, and mainly the long term side effect, like the lack of extended interest. She has flavors of the week, but she doesn't really have any real passions, one of the reasons she fnds it easier to just not be a human. Chickens don't need long term life goals, just a little room to scratch and stretch their wings. Nina can also be terribly adjusted to normal situations. Attemptng to go shopping? Nina might just want to make elaborate plays involving the love triange on Mr and Mrs Pineapple plus their next-door neighbor, Sexy Tomato. Or she might calmly get milk. You never know.
Nina likes to run around, spin until she's dizzy, roll down hills and just reall be a very tall four year old. Mainly because its fun! However, she also has a childish sense of emotions. If you upset her, you are the darkness, quite evil and not her friend. Want forgiveness? Come bearing cracked corn and cookies. Whatever you do though, don't compete with her. Nina is terribly competetive, but not the most skilled, making her a nasty sore loser. Who might just bite, depending on how bad the defeat is.
Nina is hard to talk to at times, and not just because she can be a chicken. She's just so hectic that her thoughts move a bit faster than her mouth, and she skips words that aren't adjectives when she's really pressed for time. She's perfectly nice though, in her own crazy way, and a geniunely happy person. Its fun to have fun, after all.
Not to mention, Nina can be a total dork. Reciting The Hobbit is her idea of a challenge, one she can win, and a night of reading classic Superman comics is just fine by her. And artist by nature, Nina likes her alone time. Or alone time with friends. Both are super great. Especially private alone times with friends as a chicken. Dust and companionship!

History
Once upon a lovely time, two normal people had a weird kid. So it goes huh? Nina Levitra was born the daughter of a doctor and a composer, quite the priveledged life. She was the oldest for a while and when Mommy wasn't busy composing scores, they spent time together growing up and being happy. Nina got to have plants and dresses and soccer lesson and dolls and a puppy and lots of apple juice. Life was peachy keen and green. Childhood was a greatly blissful place.
At age seven, something new came along; a little sister. Kimmie burst into the world and when the focus shifted to the new baby, Nina kept being the awkward little person she was. She spoke up and spoke out, she tried to dance on a fence post and sprained her wrist, she made a few friends just as weird as her. Her parents tried to encourage her to be herself, and ended up encouraging quite the oddity. They were okay with this.
In school, Nina had a rather spotty record, as she couldn't concentrate very long and was most interested in Art class and recess. Still, she struggled her way along and managed to pass with the help of a little tutoring and alot of focus tricks. Plus, everytime she brough home exceptional grades, she got ice cream and Play-Doh, the perfect rewards.
As Kimmie turned six, Nina got into the tricky bits of puberty and discovered that her body was changing. Sure, all the other girls went up in cup size, but she was entering a poetry phase, and sometimes had feathers that she could pull out of her hair and wittle into pens. Cool, but weird, and something she only mentioned to her absolute closes friend Amy when she developed a patch of skunk fur on her shoulders. A few weeks later, the lovely people at the Hammel Institute contacted her and she was headed to the school, waving goodbye to her family and friends, promising to write every week.
The more time she spend at Hammel, the more Nina learned. She got to the point of controlling her power a bit better, and managed a few color selective transformations. When she turned into a chicken the first time, she stayed firmly stuck in that state for two days. After she managed to get back to a human, she found that being a chicken really wasn't so bad. She experimented with being a cat and a toad, but chicken was really what fit her personality.
Nina also learned higher math and that she absolutely loved photography. It was finally something she could like for more than a few weeks, and photography meant showing whatever she could see to the world. Could anything be more perfect?
After graduating Hammel, Nina headed home and surprised her family by turing into a puppy and taking a nap on the porch. When Kimmie brought her inside to show Phil and Helena, Nina transformed back into herself rather spectacularly. After a few minutes to collect themselves and a couple of question to prove she really was their Nina, they were okay with this, and Nina got ice cream and Play-Doh. Things were the same as they ever were, just to Nina's tastes.
She went to college for a few years, eventually tranferring to a Liberal Arts school and majoring in Photography, meeting new friends before she graduated and moved in with her painfully ordinary cousin Joel.
Now that she's a technical grown up, Nina enjoys selling photography for money when she can and being a chicken when she can't. Joel is a graphic designer who is still unsure what to think of his odd younger cousin, so he generally lets her stay with him when she's a human, and doesn't think too much.
Nina can often be found wandering around the school grounds, mainly as a chicken, and through the town as a normal woman out looking for fun and maybe something to hold her interest.
Roleplay Example
