FULL NAME:: Na'Mira Williams
NICKNAMES:: Mira, MirMir
GENDER:: Female
ACTUAL AGE:: 28
APPARENT AGE:: Mid/Late 20's
SPECIES/RACE:: Plus
PREFERRED PRONOUNS:: She/Her/Hers/Herself
SEXUAL ORIENTATION:: Demisexual Heteromantic
FACECLAIM:: Antonia Thomas
NATIONALITY:: English
HEIGHT:: 5' 1"
HAIR:: Brown
EYES:: Hazel
SKIN:: Cinnamon
DISTINGUISHING MARKS::
Freckles cover her body, across her face and across her body. There is a particular cluster across her shoulders, almost like a star field. She used to be ashamed of them, but now flaunts them. She has a few scars, nothing major, but also has a lovely, long scar her knee from a beer bottle that was thrown during a bar fight.
APPEARANCE::
Mira is a tiny ball of hate, wrapped up in freckles and curly hair. Standing a five foot one, she is usually the shortest amongst a group of individuals. She's not too petite, however, and can actually boast of having enough fat to display soft curves; it probably comes from all the alcohol she has been consuming.
Her skin is cinnamon in color, dotted frequently with darker freckles. She has a star field across her shoulders and shoulder blades. Her hair is darker than her skin, with curls and body that betrays her biracial heritage. Her eyes are hazel in color and often change color depending on what she's wearing. She prefers to wear colors that cause them to turn green or blue, however.
PERSONALITY::
Na'Mira is a bitter soul; in fact, she's a full serving of sugar, spice and sass. While it is possible to catch Na'Mira on a good day, it is far much more likely that you will catch on an angry day. She's quick to lash out, with her tongue or with her fists. She's angry about the fact she's going to lose her eyesight to something she hates, and she's angry that no one will be there for her throughout her life. But even more than that, she's afraid.
That's not to say that Mira is all fire and bitterness. In fact, if you manage to get the psychic when she's not working or when she's slightly drunk, the odds of her loosing up increase tenfold. With the sarcastic tendencies come also a love of good humor. Mira is not one to turn a deaf ear to a joke, after all, or bite her tongue to crack her own. She loves to laugh and finds that it helps her relieve tension after a long day.
Mira also has a love of alcohol, and has taken to drinking it whenever the nights are too long and the jokes just not good enough to get her through. She is willing to fool around, but finds herself not yet ready to take any sort of relationship past just sex, as it distracts her from work and life. She likes sex. She enjoys it. But she's afraid of losing not just her eyes to her illness, but also her life, and she's not ready to risk that.

STRENGTHS::
WEAKNESSES::
SECRETS::
Na'Mira has a strong fear of the dark, which is not very favorable when one is going blind. She honestly hopes she dies before her eyes fully give in. Mira is also going blind, due to a tumor in her brain. Though she does have the ability to see the world around her via her psychometry, it's a power she's still developing. Most of the time, she's left in a fuzzy and dark world with no way to move on.

HISTORY::
Na'Mira was born to Charles Walker and Jessica Richards, a pair of strangers who met once, then spent several months together as lovers. When Jessica revealed she was pregnant, Charles tipped his hat and said he was gone. He had enjoyed the months in Jessica's bed, but he and his boyfriend had apparently made up. He was gone before Jessica could even sue for any sort of child support. So, Jessica raised her child alone.
For the first ten years of Na'Mira and her mother lived a good life together in Chicago. Mira was a good student. She made her dear mother proud. She wanted to make her mother happy. So, when Jessica told Mira that she was dating another man, Mira was happy for her mother. And she like the man. Big Mike, as Na'Mira grew to call him, was a good man, though not that bright. He treated Jessica like a queen, and loved Na'Mira like a daughter. They married when Mira was twelve.
A few years into the marriage, Jessica became pregnant. Na'Mira was eighteen and graduating from high school. It was going to be a little boy, a brother. She wasn't going to be her daughter's little girl anymore, and that was okay. She was going off to college. Mike deserved a child he could raise from the get-go. Unfortunately, Jessica lost the baby. Afterwards, she fell into alcoholism.
Jessica and Mike managed to conceive again, but the child was born with health problems due to Jessica's alcoholism.
Na'Mira graduated college four years later. Her mother did not live that long; she died of alcohol poisoning during her daughter's senior year. Her step-father slowly began to cut ties with Na'Mira, until they only communicated via phone call every few months. It wasn't his fault; even Mira knew -- knows -- that. She looks too much like her mother, and Mira can't stand to see the hurt in her father's eyes. So, one year into medical school, Mira lost the last bit of family she ever had.
Since she lost contact with her family, things began to change. Whenever she would grab a medical tool, Mira would have flashbacks -- or flash-forwards. She would see surgeries of past and future, or lectures of old. Soon, the ability grew, and anything Mira touched began to give her these images. Mira soon learned that she was not as ordinary that she believed, but instead possessed a psychic ability. After the discovery, Na'Mira hid her Plus status, knowing she would be ostracized for such an ability.
In her third year of medical school, Mira began to go through dizzy spells. She would pass out, or suddenly become light-headed. Her ability, which Na'Mira had so long tried to oppress, had finally broken through. However, in its desperation to be free, it damaged her brain. Her ability, which allowed her to see so much, was now robbing Na'Mira of her eyesight due to a tumor that has developed on her brain. Mira dropped out of medical school before the end of that year.
Now, she just does odd jobs. She moves around. She's grown angrier since her years at school, and has given into alcohol. She's given into life, and truly just wants to die. Unfortunately, she's too afraid to do so.

POWERS::
- Psychometry ;; Na'Mira can see the past and future of any object just by touching it. At the moment, she's slowly training her abilities to give her the present. This is useful only when her eyes do not wish to work.
WEAKNESSES::
- Due to not working with her ability as a teenager and young adult, her powers are very weak, and she currently just uses it when her eyes are having a bad day. It is also the reason for her tumor.
