APPEARANCE DETAILS
Appearance:
Felicity has always seemed older than she really is, from the way she carries herself- and her general appearance. Her face has a familiar heart shape to it, with deep set, pale green eyes that seem to see more than is in front of her. Her hair is a sandy brown, almost dirty blond color and long- though as it seems to get longer, the curlier it gets. Slowly going from wavy to curly. She isn't really pale, but due to her heritage she is as tan as she's probably going to get having a creamy complexion with hints of pink around her cheeks when she's out in the sun for long periods of time.
As for her body, she seems to have a matured figure and seemingly little body fat- but she works hard to maintain that. Her arms and legs are toned with muscle- though not enough to waver the feminine look about her- but it helps her in P.E and other activities. She stands at about 5 foot 5 to 5 foot 6.
Clothing Style:
Felicity doesn't really flaunt her appearance through clothes, instead just keeping a "natural" or "down to earth" look about her. And she does. Normally keeping the usual t-shirt, skinny or regular jeans and maybe the occasional hoodie. She isn't fond of incredibly pale or incredibly dark colors- staying in the middle with a picky attire. Again, she may be fairly simple in her clothes-line- but she is sure of what she wants to wear, when she wants to wear it.
In the winter or when the weather starts to cool down, she picks a coat or trench-coat over a hoodie or maybe a sweater instead of a t-shirt. In replace of jeans, on occasion she'd wear lined leggings with boots. Again, fairly simple- but carefully planned out. That's just how she was brought up and it turned into a forced habit.
Special Accessories:
None
PERSONALLY
Over-all Personality:
Felicity is a high spirited, spunky, and likable person--once you get to know her. Before that stage, she's still spunky- and spirited- but in the wrong ways. For example: she would be considered rude, sarcastic, and pessimistic when you first talk to her. She also comes off conceited, knowing for a fact that she's better than you.
All the personality flaws that would push away any person she didn't know- or someone she just had a bad feeling about. Certainly, Felicity has the talent to push someone out of her life. She's done it many times before.
However, there is another side to the girl that brings back the "likable" portion mentioned earlier. She's spunky, but the type that has a wonderful charisma. She'll always be laughing or smiling. High spirited in a sense where, if she doesn't have a door to go through- she'll just build one (figuratively speaking.) Unfortunately, she doesn't let a lot of people see this side of her- only the people that she gets a "true feeling" about (her way of saying- she has a good feeling about a person, that they're real instead of something someone else wants them to be.) Or someone she has an extreme respect for, or just the people that have set aside her first-impression to become her friend.
Other than that, she has her own quirks that complete strangers would notice. She hates getting her hands dirty (literally.) She's constantly washing them carefully, because she can't stand the feeling- or even the thought- of dirty hands. She also eats her food one food at a time, never having them mix together (even chicken and rice- she'll separate the two before eating it.) This also goes for drinks, she can't use the same glass that was once used for a different drink without re-washing it.
Ultimately, she has to keep things tidy and clean. She's rather the freak for cleanliness, whether it's for her surrounding area- or hygiene.
Likes:
-Laughing
-Being around her friends and loved ones.
-Owls (she collects them)
-Ice-Skating (though since she enrolled, she can't do that quite as much as she'd like.)

-Things around her being perfectly in order.
Dislikes:
-Animals
-Any grades lower than a high B.
-The Student Freedom Force
-Feeling significantly lower than other people.
-Strangers
-Untidiness.
Fears:
-Losing her Memory
-Being completely alone
-Getting expelled from school (which is irrational)
-Animals (rather, anything with four legs/paws/claws)
-Under-Achievement
Habits:
-She normally comes off rude on first-impressions, and then automatically judges a person when they're rude back. (But she doesn't realize she was the one who was rude first.)
~She has small, occasional "giggle-fits" where when she finds something funny- she'll laugh/giggle and continue to do so for a good probable 15 to even 20 minutes.
-She tends to look at her reflection every time she goes next to a mirror or anything that may cast the slight hint of her silhouette.
Sense of Humor:
Normally, her sense of humor is light and blissful. She'll laugh at almost anything.
But with people she doesn't know, her humor automatically twists to become dry and sarcastic.
Goals:
-Graduate the Institute as top of her class.
-Be in the Student Council.
-Find a cure for her disorder.

BACKGROUND
History:
Felicity Blanc was born to Christine and Adam Blanc on January 3, 1997 in a town called Nantes, one of the most livable towns in France. With her family, she was a sweet child- always laughing and living what would be considered a baby lifestyle. She was fascinated with almost everything put in front of her, except for the stuffed animals- they would make the toddler cry and cry until the plush cat or bear was taken out of her sight. But, she did accept a little stuffed pink owl that her grandmother gave her one day- and that was her favorite animal even when she was a teenager (and she still has that particular old pink owl.)
As a child, when she started to walk and repeat the few words she knew, that's when she started to have her imaginary friends. One was an animated owl, naturally- and her parents found it natural that their little girl would have imaginary friends. Didn't most children have them?
In school, that's where the problems came up. It was obvious that Felicity was a talented child- with her extraordinary imagination at story-time, and her ability to answer questions before most of her classmates; but she was probably the least social or friendly girl in the class. She'd always sit in the corner, drawing pictures and talking to one of her many imaginary friends. She'd either ignore whoever tried to talk to her (except the teacher) or be mean to them by firing cruel, childish insults to steer them away from her. Finally- the teacher confronted her parents, and when they questioned her- she simply said that one of her imaginary friends didn't like the person- or the imaginary friend (who she had a name for all of them) told her to make the boy or girl go away.
Of course, the parents and the teacher was concerned- but after a number of discussions and conferences, they concluded that the little girl- who never liked getting in trouble- was simply using her "imaginary friends" as a sort of scapegoat. But what were they supposed to do about her behavior toward the other students?
Christine, her mother and a teacher herself- decided to start homeschooling for her little girl. She and her husband, Adam, considered that this behavior was just a phase that would pass as soon as the imaginary friends would start going away. And according to the books she have read in the past, imaginary friend were supposed to go away as the child got older and found interest in something else, or made real friends. Well, she wasn't going to make any friends as the imaginary friends- who always came first to her- were in her life. So, the parents planned to take all the time they needed for their little girl to be the sweet child they knew for everybody- including the kids her age.
When she was 12 years old, almost 13, she still had imaginary friends and she was still home schooled. But she was used to it- and later, she admitted, she liked homeschooling better than anything, anyway. She was ahead of her class in learning- already playing around with upper class work in science- which she was incredibly good at- and reciting what her mother wanted recited practically the day after it was given to her by her mother. At her daughter's progress, the teacher and mother was intrigued, but still wary of her fascination with these imaginary friends- something she could've grown out of a long time ago. She didn't want the little girl to get in trouble with her now older classmates. And she didn't want Felicity to back-track in her teachings.
So, for her 13th birthday, she met her therapist for the very first time.
Her therapist, Dr. Thomas, explained to her parents that the girl had a disorder called Psychosis. That was the explanation for her hostile imaginary friends, the nightmares the little girl explained before, and the voices she heard that she assumed to be the voices of her imaginary friends. But on a lighter note, he was also who told Christine and Adam Blanc exactly how "gifted" little Felicity was. He explained that she had a sort of photographic memory that was connected both to her soul spiritually and her mind intellectually. If she learned to tap into both, it could take her very far- and it would grow enormously. But this memory is also something that could be with her dreams. Between that and the hallucinations, it could've been terrifying for the little girl. Luckily, he told them, she hasn't suffered anything truly horrifying--merely the spiraling imagination of a child.
He told them about a school he went to in his youth, a school for gifted young adults- where if they had a secret, there was no fear of letting it be revealed. That's what he suggested, and Adam and Christine took that into consideration- or at least, until Felicity got a little older and used to her medication that was prescribed to her until they'd completely take his advice.
Later that year, her parents had a divorce that threw things a little out of proportion. Since then, the girl started taking more online courses than personal lessons from a tutor or her mother for about a year.
For her 15th birthday, as a gift from her father, she got an enrollment to the T'zenshin Institute so she could attend when the next school year started.
Secrets:
When she was 13, Felicity was diagnosed with a disorder properly called "Psychosis". In a normal, untreated case- this certainly wouldn't be considered a secret. But she takes medication every day and is ordered to call her therapist (who, is conveniently on her speed-dial) every month. Thanks to this, her symptoms aren't known to the public and her peers. It has to be her deepest, darkest secret.
But, no amount of medication can soothe her dreams- with help of her precise memory- are startling vivid, and more than otherwise frightening. Also, from time to time- she can hear voices that nobody else can hear. But despite these minor hallucinations- the major ones, severe cases of delirium and lack of thought process are under ground unless she fails to take the medicine she has to treat it.
Another, minor secret, would be that she isn't sure about her sexual orientation. She's found herself attracted to some girls- but she's always fell for the closer guys in her life. Because she doesn't understand, she doesn't announce to the world what her preference is in relationships.
Gift:
Ever since she was a little girl, Felicity had a photographic memory that seemed to grow more and more as she got older. This branched off from a memory where she remembered, word to word, what people have said to her- or even sometimes around her. For some reason, it's only seemed to expand- and it continues to do so.
