General Appearance:
Riley has a very different look from the stereotypical teacher type. A certain style sense comes with her that makes her different. Riley likes to do different things with her hair at times, and her clothing style is more modern. While, she still has a sense of professionalism in her style of dress, she still likes to capture some of her youth as well. After all, she is only 25 years old, plenty of time before she starts dressing like an old lady.
Riley's ethnicity is put into question a lot by strangers, but to put the record straight Riley is mixed. Her father is fully Filipino, thats where her middle and surname comes from, and her mother is fully African-American. Therefore she is considered a mix of both, and gets her delicate skin color from that as well.
There really is nothing too unique about Riley's birth-given appearance. She is just naturally gorgeous, something she has used from a young age to get what she wanted, that and her power over pheromones makes her a seductive threat.
Personality:
When Rylie was younger, she had a very seductive type of personality. She used to use her looks, and her powers to get whatever she wanted. This in turn made her into a severely spoiled brat, or a snob as some called her. Due to this personality trait she had when she was younger, she didn't end up making too many friends. Which leads to a personality trait she has in the current days, and that is socially inept. It isn't the fact that she is shy around people, because she is definitely not shy. She just always feels as if she is being judged, so she is quick to snap back at someone if she thinks they don't like her. Mainly because she is so used to having everyone not like her, so she just assumes that no one will like her. Oddly though, the socially ineptness goes away when she is flirting.
(Note: Riley is no longer a snob, she just used to be.)
Riley is a very business orientated person. She likes to get her work done, and when she is doing her job, she does it to her best abilities. This might be because of her competitive nature. She likes to be the best at anything she does, and that is the main reason she gets her work done in a good manner. It's also a good reason why she got the receptionist job at the Hummel Institute.

History
Riley was born into a loving family, with a sister who was 5 years older than her, and a very caring mom and dad. Her life seemed pretty normal for the first five years, and thats when her father was sent to prison. Riley's mom said that it was on a false claim of murder, but Riley actually believed her father to be guilty. Even though her father claimed to be a custodian, she didn't believe him. Her father wasn't the type of man who would be satisfied for a job as a custodian, she just knew he would want more. In any case, her father was sentenced guilty for 25 years in prison. It was a complete devestating blow to the family to not have any father around with them. Riley never got the satisfaction of being called Daddy's Girl, or going to her father/daughter ball together. Things like that took a hard blow to her, and she wasn't afraid to let her mom know either. It was hard enough for her mom being an only parent of two kids with a minimum waged job.
They lived a low class lifestyle for a long time, but when Riley turned the age of 14, she began to develop. Not just develop as in normal girl stuff getting bigger, but she started to notice she had a sort of control. It was as if she could change how someone felt in a quick moment. When she first figured out that she had this ability to control people's emotions (Didn't know what Pheromones were) she was only able to make them feel how she felt. But, if they were feeling completely opposite of how she felt it wouldn't always work.
When she told her mom about this power, the first reaction was fear. Her mother was scared of the public not accepting her. Ironically enough, a guy appeared at her doorstep the next day. He claimed to be from The Hammel Institute, a place that could help her train her abilities, and make her a better person, while keeping her safe. So, she packed up her bags, said goodbye to her family, and was off. While she was there, she felt more normal than usual, with people who had a lot of interesting powers. Quickly she was titled as the Queen B of the school. Too most she was just a plain B****. She had sort of a snobby attitude towards others, mainly girls, claiming she was better than them. Riley was also a grade A student, despite her social bitchiness outside of class. She was on the Student Council, serving as Secretary, and in numerous sports.
Riley graduated from the Institute at the age of 18, and decided to go off to college. She went to the one that was near the institute, that way she could be close to them in case she still needed them. After finishing her prerequisites in the college, she was undecided in what she wanted to do with her life. She wanted to be a Fashion Designer, but how realistic was that. So, while deciding on her future, she decided to go back to the Hammel Institute to work as the Receptionist. This job was mainly to pay for her apartment, and other necessities, until she was ready to decide on a career.
Roleplay Example
(From a Young Justice RP)
Megan had arrived fairly late on the scene, unlike the rest of her teammates. Earlier in the day, she had decided to go out and explore the world a little. Not really expecting any missions or any action at all to be honest. Unknown to her there actually was some action going on, and three of her team members were already on the case. Apparently, so were the Justice League members, otherwise known as the adults. This must have been a serious mission if everyone was in on this mission.
While flying over the ocean, feeling the wind of the earth flowing through her hair, Megan got a distress call on her com device. She was told to wear it while exploring, just in case something popped up. Not to mention, her mental connection wouldn't work at the range she was at. In a hurry, Megan flew toward the coordinates that were mentioned over the com system. Her clothes morphed into her battle clothes during her flight to the destination, the white attire though.
When Megan finally arrived, the fight seemed to be getting crazy out of control. There was debris everywhere, citizens running for there lives, and villians and heroes fighting ferociously. Megan really didn't know where she fit into the equation here, or how to get herself involved without getting in the way of the good guys.
Well, Megan found a chance to help when she saw her team leader and friend, Aqualad. A man was walking towards a stunned Kaldur with twin katanas, looking ready to impale him when close enough. Megan flew in closer to get a better look and to save her partner. When close enough, she confirmed that it was indeed the situation that she had thought it was. It was time to spring into action, and she surely did. Quickly, she used her telekineses to launch the two weapons out of the man's, who she now recognized as deathstroke, hands. As Deathstroke turned to her in confusion while his katanas went hurling down the side of the building, Megan lifted a huge piece of a building that had fallen off and hurled it at Deathstroke who dodged quickly. No doubt he was highly experienced. He then charged at her, with Megan the one who was now in shock.
