Character Name: Vikki Baez
Gender: Female
Job/Role: The level headed chick in a strange world.
Age: 17
General Appearance:
Vikki was brought to the Carnival in her school uniform since she hadn't gone home to change. This uniform consists of a sweater, a red ribbon tie, and a skirt. She has black hair and dark brown eyes. Her hair is kept at shoulder length. Vikki wears glasses because she is near-sighted. Never attempt to remove these from her, she hates it when people attempt to do that to her.
In her book bag, she also has a long olive drab flannel shirt that probably belonged to her father while he was on active duty in the Spanish military before the Civil War.
General Personality: A plucky girl. If life throws hardships at Vikki, she'll keep on smiling even though she knows things aren't going her way.
She has great charm, allure, and inner strength, and is able to overcome most any obstacle in life. She comes across as self-confident and self-possessed and others are drawn to her for that reason. There is a mysterious quality about this girl, because she is intensely private, discrete and secretive. Soon Vikki will learn everything about you, but later you will realize that she hasn't given you many details about herself--that's her natural reticence. Determination and will power are her basic personality traits. She can use them anytime to come out of anything that is negative.
Vikki tries to explain everything as rationally as possible in her mind, though she often times gives up and just goes with the flow of life. This is because Vikki is naturally curious, Vikki loves to learn everything she possibly can about, well everything. She has an active imagination and likes to take risks. Vikki is not afraid to get dirty either.
Vikki has a sense of fairness and justice. The same goes for generosity also. If you do one kind deed for her, she will do four in return.
She is passionate with everything that is related to her. It is almost impossible for her to have neutral feelings. Either she will deeply cherish or fiercely hate. If any of the feelings are not experienced, she will become completely indifferent towards it. However, she never lets these feelings show. Her expression will always remain neutral, betraying nothing. Her anger is very bad and it's better to get out of her way when it gets out of hand. She can become a hard-hearted sarcastic person when angered.
She seems to be very practical, but inside she is very emotional.
General History: Vikki lives in Boise, Idaho with her father and grandfather. They recently escaped from the Spanish Civil War (1936-39), since her family had funds to do so. Her father teaches at the local university. Vikki's mother divorced her father several years ago. Vikki has had no contact with her since 1933. It should be noted she's never gotten along with her mother. Her elder sister is currently living in Paris, having left Spain several months before her father and sister. Vikki has always wanted to travel to France and it is more than certain that she is jealous. She currently attends high school. Her family is from a Spanish background (Basque) and has close connections with the Basque speaking parts of the city.
Powers/Skills: Vikki has no powers. However, she seems to have a natural gift of being able to see through people's lies and personality masks. Knowledge and instinct, occult talents and psychological ability appear within her, because her character tends to dwell on the inner demons that the average person chooses to ignore.
