Profile

Gale is an itinerant healer and occult detective. These days, she is either scavenging, looking out after the supernatural and mortals near her or dealing with grief and owning a house that fell out of the sky. Gale is contactable, especially by those who know what witches are.

Description

Click to expand.
Winter is a person standing about 5'9", with a slightly trim build. She doesn't seem to stand out as being super curvy, but decidedly on the twiggy side of light. She does seem to be in good shape, and pretty healthy overall. Her skin is pale, as if the sun and her weren't really on speaking terms. Her face is lean and angular, with high cheekbones and a sharp, straight nose. Strangely enough, her eyes are a dark purple. She wears sunglasses when she can get away with it. Finally, her hair is solid black and wavy. Usually, it's kept up in a simple ponytail with a few long strands falling free just behind her ears.

These days, Winter's clothing is simple and practical. Granted, that doesn't mean she dresses WELL. Or owns shirts beyond goofy nerd shirts. Fortunately, the fashion police haven't found her and tazed her into oblivion. Her t-shirt reads 'Resistance is futile (if < 1 ohm)'.

History

Click to expand.

Winter was born into the Moontree family, who were a clan of witches hiding behind pretentious names and things that seemed so new age they were just odd rather than actively magical. Okay, they even spelled magic with a k. Yikes. As a kid, Winter wasn't really expected to take up the family's mantle or even receive any of their powers. Talk about starting the cosmic life expectations bar so low they might've well just painted it on, then threw her on a trampoline so she'd bounce over it and go away. Regardless of the low, low expectations of her from her family, Winter proved to be fairly clever and resilient if something of a smart alec. She did do pretty well in school, and even managed to net herself a few scholarships for being good with sciencey stuff. It was working out pretty well for her, even if she was pretty bummed out about never being accepted into the great family secret while her siblings were.

Either way, she ended up going to college. And that's where things got slightly more surreal than Gary Coleman fighting crime while riding a giraffe.

Winter decided to go into Electrical engineering. Her family was pleased, as it would keep her away and busy. She made quite a few friends in the Anime and Sci Fi club. Trouble started at one of their meetings when one of the club members found a board game that was in fact, a demon summoning ritual guide for dummies. Long story short, they ended up summoning Phil, the demon who tortured people who talked on their cell phones and spoiled things for others (Oh man, he hated that). Apparently being around a rather displeased demon awakened Winter's powers and she ... set his shoes on fire. Phil was stunned. Who did that? Seriously. Who the hell set people's shoes on fire? That's just /rude/. He did however, offer her a future job reference, politely put his shoes out and took the board game. Phil warned them not to muck with the occult in the future. He didn't want to miss his favorite show, and really, punishing the college kids just seemed unfair.

Winter was both horrified and amazed. Her family wasn't thrilled, but they did teach her the ins and outs of willworking, as well as providing her with a small sum of savings and broomstick of her very own so she could make her way in the world. Since she gets enough Harry Potter jokes from the broom alone, she opted not to use a wand as a focus. Instead, she requested guns or something more practical. While her aunt almost offered a mystical chainsaw, she did end up buying a pair of guns to have them duly enchanted. Though, should she ever fight disgruntled lumberjacks, she will probably wish for the chainsaw. Winter trained while she could and ended up graduating with her Bachelor's. These days, she works as an occult detective.

Personality

Click to expand.
Gale is an altruist at heart. She really does care. She also isn't very confident in herself, due to the whole low standards in life thing. Rain is strongly empathetic, to her credit. Though, she's also terrible levels of nerdly, and is sometimes awkward. Sometimes she can be nervous or cowardly, but that comes from not having power early on. Most people do run when someone's pants catch flame, after all.

Abilities

Click to expand.

ELECTRICAL ENGINEER
Rain was an electrical engineering major in college! She also uses it to augment and understand her magic a good deal better. Watch out, circuit diagrams of EVIL! She has a bachelor's in EE.

MAGIC
Rain is a witch! She has magic. It's true. While she can cast a good deal of improvised spells, she has a few particular ones she can do better than others or is more familiar with. She is a fairly experienced witch after surviving MechaHitler, being Silent Hill'd and a fair amount of other things. But she's still not an upper level caster, maybe experienced beginner at best. It's only been a couple of years after all. Some of her notable magic includes: Healing, divination, elemental magics, magic blasts from her gun, melding magic and technology (behold, the toaster of war), newting people (They always get better...), flying and summoning her broomstick and portals. She loathes teleportation because she always seems to end up in drag or covered in chocolate. Her healing and divination are really her strong points. Although she's a crack shot at newtin'.

She can turn into a Siberian Dire Bear. Which really makes her wonder about her family tree. No tentacles yet, though!

Skills

AMBIDEXTROUS MARKSMAN
Rain can use BOTH hands! She's ambidextrous! And that leads to so, so many terrible jokes.

ELECTRICAL REPAIRS
Gale can repair and build some electronic things. Notably, she sticks to small electronics and things to do with wires and circuits.

SCAVENGER

Being homeless a couple of years teaches you to renew, reuse and recycle. A lot. It also teaches you where to find things, or you die.

Resources

CAPTAIN THE CAT
Captain is Rain's familiar. She can swap senses with him, guide him or cast spells on him. He is a Gothamian Orange Tabby Male Cat (shorthair). He also gets +10 to being sarcastic because he is a cat.

HOCUS POCUS FAMILY
While her relationship with her family is somewhat strained due to the whole 'keeping Winter out of the loop and totally not inviting her to the cool kid's club when she DID manifest ability', Winter was taught and trained fairly well. She likely could ask again, though it wouldn't be easy or pleasant. Newts may even be involved.

HOUSEHOLD HELP
Rain has Rain has inherited some of her aunt's household help. While this includes an angry Tumblrite succubus, a golem who loves to and wants to one day become a master of BBQ and some others.

TWIN PISTOLS

While she swears she's not compensating for anything, the truth of it is, Rain does in fact, have two pistols. She is loathe to leave home without them because they are the relics she depends on for casting. Wands would just lead to far too many terrible jokes. Especially the traditional 12 inch wand with a - you know what, let's leave it at that.

Weaknesses

Click to expand.

FALLING HOUSE
Rain's been homeless a good, long while. She suddenly finds herself a home-owner and it's a bit overwhelming. Sometimes she even forgets to come home and sleep /in/ the house. But she'll get there. Throw in the fact her house is magic and plays a bit of havoc with things around it, the magic booze cellar with the dimensional conduit and everything and it's a bit much now and then. Oh, and some of her relatives might try to kill her to reclaim the manor. If witch hunters and such don't first.

HEALTH
Rain's powers rely on her being able to concentrate and will work. If she's sick, worn out, drugged up or whatever, she won't be able to use her magic.

OBVIOUS HOUSE
Rain's house is OBVIOUSLY occult and draws fans to it. And maybe witch hunters. And others seeking occult curiosities.

RELIC GUNS

Rain cannot cast without having her relic guns on her person. While one is sufficient, she cannot focus her magic to any useful degree without them. It is partially due to training and partially due to the nature of her magic. Rain will be reluctant, if not outright refuse to leave them behind or hand them over.
