The Basics
[/i][/size][/right]
Name: Lindy Arisha Sailleor Archer
Nicknames: Lin
Age: 34
Orientation:Heterosexual
Desired Rank/Job: Foreign Language Teacher/ Co-Coach of the Dance Team.
Powers: Duplication: She is able to make copies of herself that are just as functional as she is. However, she never creates more than 3 copies at a time, because when they return their memories become too much for Lindy to handle and causes excruciating headaches. Also, after duplication, as well as the duplicate’s return, she is extremely hungry.

The Details
Hair Color:Auburn
Eye Color:Brown
Any Piercings?Ears
Any Tattoos?Nope
Any Scars?One, on her stomach from the C-section from the birth of her last child.
General Appearance: Lindy has a dancer’s body. Smaller chest, waist and hips with muscular arms and legs from training for years. She is toned but not buff. Her longer auburn hair is usually down and curled but can be pulled back in a bun while dancing. She has large chocolate brown eyes that her husband adores. And when she smiles she has dimples, the one on the right being more pronounced than the one on the left.
On a normal day she wears clothes that are casual yet pretty. She refuses to spend a lot of money since most of her clothes end up with peanut butter and jelly stains all over them. She only wears high heels when she goes out with Benjamin, once in a blue moon. Lindy wears kitten heels to work and tennis shoes at home (she has three kids to run after).
If you get the chance to see her dance, she’ll be in a tank or sports bra and a tutu. Of course, you can’t forget the pointe shoes.
Personality: Lindy likes to have fun, but when it’s time to work she gets serious, very serious. As a child she was never very patient with herself or others, but when she had children, that all changed. Even more so when baby Claira was born and everyone in the house tried to learn Sign Language.
She enjoys having a tight schedule, full of running her children around to their lessons, teaching and being a wife and mother. Sometimes things get hectic, but she works though it.
With her schedule, the house can be sort of a mess. She tries to keep things clean but someone always manages to make a mess behind her. Every morning she takes the family dog, Lilly also Claira’s aid, for a run. Those twenty minutes of peace and quiet is her daily escape from the stress of being an adult.

History
Lindy was born on Sunday, October 13th, in 1974, to Damien Joel Sailleor and Lena Irena Utkin Sailleor. Her father, Damien, was a principle dancer in the Ballet de l'Opéra national de Paris in France. Her mother, Lena, was a 1st soloist with the Mariinsky Ballet in the Soviet Union.
Lindy was their third child. She had two older sisters both of whom attended The Vaganova Ballet Academy.
By the time she could walk her mother began teaching her basic positions on the barre. On her sixth birthday in 1980 she was sent to The Vaganova Ballet Academy. The same dance school her sisters went to in order to train for the Mariinsky Ballet.
Twelve hours a day six days a week she trained. She lived there everyday excluding holidays, when they were allowed to go home. Year after year she trained to be a prima ballerina; until one day when she was thirteen.
It was a normal day in Soviet Russia. Lindy started her day at the barre, working on technique. She was stressed since she had failed to do the previous night’s homework. During their first break at 10 a.m. she thought about faking sick. The instructor let her go to the restroom in hope that she would vomit and be done with it.
Lindy looked at herself in the mirror. She began to feel slightly nauseous and splashed her face with water. She looked in the mirror again. She looked like she had a “fuzzy” outline. Her vision became blurry and when she was able to focus she thought she was just looking in a mirror. Only, she wasn’t. Lindy was looking at an identical copy of herself; down to the tutu. The original Lindy gasped while the copy stood there, unsure of what to do. Lindy thought for a moment and realized that this could help her.
She sent the copy back to her room to finish that homework she was so stressed about. Lindy went back out to the studio and took her place at the barre.
Her twelve hour day ended with one of her instructors pulling her off to the side and telling her to pack her things. Lindy was stunned. Did they find out that she was a meta? How? She only just found out herself. Were they sending her away because of it? Was she going to have to stop dancing? She never asked those questions, though they burned inside her. She just went to her room, and collected her things. By morning she was at the Odarennyi Institute, an hour away from The Vaganova Ballet Academy.
When her parents found that she had been taken from the dance school they were furious. They got a hold of the administration from both schools and basically raised hell. They finally struck a deal with both schools that would have a private dance instructor form The Vaganova Ballet Academy to come and work with her daily. Her twelve hour days turned into fourteen hours days. She split her time evenly between school, dance, and power training. She graduated at 18 from both the Odarennyi Institute and The Vaganova Ballet Academy.
Lindy travelled with the Mariinsky Ballet until one day when she was in New York in 2002. She met a young man there by the name of Alexander Benjamin Archer. He was playing hockey on the ice at Central Park when she had a free day from the ballet. She watched him play for an hour or so when he caught her eye and winked. After he was done he skated over to her and asked if she wanted to go get some coffee. She of course said yes.
The two hit it off. He loved hockey almost as much as she loved dance. Almost. They dated for a short four months before he proposed. They went ice skating in Central Park, the same rink where they met. Both were good skaters, her being a dancer and him being a hockey player. He was skating a little ways in front of her when he fell. This surprised her so she skated over to him to see if he was alright. As she stopped he turned to her, on one knee and asked her to marry him. Lindy gasped and yelled, “YES!” as he slipped the engagement ring onto her delicate finger. They were married that year in October. They found out that Lindy was 4 weeks pregnant in early December. She was due sometime in late August. Months passed and her baby belly grew. During this time she went to a local college and worked on getting her Bachelor’s Degree in Education with a minor in Foreign Languages. The baby was born on Tuesday, August 25, 2003, a healthy little girl they named Florence Ann.
Their daughter grew and Lindy continued her education. And in September of 2004 they again found that they were expecting. She was three-quarters of the way through college when the bundle of joy Aleksander Marcus was born on Friday, May 6th of 2005.
Right after finishing her degree, on Aleksander’s 1st birthday and right before graduation, Lindy and Benjamin learned that they would be having their third child in January of the next year. Lindy went to every doctor’s appointment and received all of the proper pre-natal care. There was one problem though, Lindy went into labor a few weeks before she was due, they were able to keep the child inside the womb for two more weeks to give the lungs a little more time to develop. And on Monday, January 21, 2007, baby Claira Belle was born via C-section. She was smaller than her brother and sister and her parents became worried. She was 8 weeks old when she got Meningitis. Baby Claira came through the treatment mostly unscathed, except she had lost the ability to hear. Lindy and Benjamin were just happy that she survived.
Over the years, Florence began dancing, like her mother; Aleksander began to play hockey, like his father; and baby Claira learned how to sign with her parents.
In the fall of 2009 Lindy began teaching at the Hammel Institute. I was much like Odarennyi Institute; the school she attended in Russia when she was 13. She and her family now live in Pilot Ridge.
