THE BEAST; Calling; Gaia Demeter Age; 17; February 14, 1992 Gender; Female Species; Human Appearance; Gaia has pea green eyes, a shade somewhere between brightish-pale, with a sea green line around the outside of her irises. They have a rather cat-like appearance, and her lithe form makes her look even more feline. Her skin is always lightly tanned, although in summer it is often rather darker. She doesn't burn very badly, but can definitely get reddish (sunscreen is often forgotten). Gaia hates makeup, and refuses to wear anything but moisturizer and chapstick, which makes her look very fresh. Her hair is a chocolatey brown with slight red tints in it; she usually wears it in messy braids, with about half of it hanging out in her face unless she clips it back.
Gaia is somewhat tall, with long limbs and didn't have any curves at all until recently, when she acquired enough to be recognised as female. She doesn't like to wear a lot of clothing, and has recently pondered going nudist. She rarely wears anything but jeans, long shirts, skirts, or dresses - everything very flowy and light. And cheap. She only wears natural fabrics and jeans made within the country (to save on pollution by importing). She isn't really into jewelry either, but will wear peace signs and hemp bracelets.
Personality; Peace. Save the Whales. End World Hunger. Stop Global Warming. Stop Violence Against Women. Cure Cancer. These are just some of the causes that Gaia believes strongly in. And if she believes in anything, she believes very strongly. She would have been an amazing suffragette - leaping in front of carriages and getting tossed in jail for the cause is just her thing. Gaia can discuss any of these topics, ranting about the injustice of it all for hours on end. The trick is not to let her get started. She has been known to reside in front of the post office for 24 hours in protest against something or other, with a tin for donations, a sign round her neck, a chair, and a lunchbox for company. At least, she would have made it to twenty-four hours if they police hadn't dragged her off (a good thing, too - the vampires in the area were starting to swarm).
Gaia is very strong willed, and people will often convert to her opinion just so that she will shut up - but this doesn't work. She can't shut up - those people will be badgered for donations and whatnot forever. It isn't that Gaia isn't doing a good job in raising money and creating awareness for what she believes in - it's just that she does this very forcefully. Once her mind is set, nothing will stop it. Because of these habits, she doesn't really have any friends, and therefore has nothing to distract her from organising a garbage clean-up day for the school area.
What with nobody to talk to, she is actually quite a lonely person, and has learned to get attention by hollering at people to quit buying designer brands that are made by foreign slaves in factories that can easily burn and destory all living beings within. People are afraid to talk to her for getting reprimanded for something or other. Spending most of her time in detention doesn't help, but she doesn't have anything better to do and breaks rules pretty much every day. She hasn't been kicked out yet because she doesn't have anywhere to go.
History; Gaia grew up in Hotel California. Her parents were still in high school when she was born, and her father died soon after, in a car crash on prom night. Both her parents did drugs, and she grew up in her mother's mother's house, surrounded by the stuff, which nearly all their money was spent on. They were dirt poor. Her mother was badly addicted. Her grandmother hated the substances her daughter used, but for the sake of her Gaia, both were allowed to stay. Gaia couldn't help ingesting drugs. Her mother had them when pregnant with her, and through various incidents in her childhood, she had them again. First of all, she breathed in the stuff who knew how often. And every kid goes into the cupboard with the pills at some point - her pills cupboard was just worse than most. Besides, she was often offered it when her mother was out of it, and without her gradmother there (she couldn't always be around), she took some. Her mother died when Gaia was ten, and although it was obviously awful for her, she understood later that her life was probably better that way. With only her grandmother in the house with her, the drugs were disposed of before the police bothered investigating, which was lucky - her grandmother had been fearful of that for over a decade.
In this new life, Gaia was happy. She no longer came home from the local public school to find a cloud of smoke in the basement. Her grandmother was less worried, and much happier too. High school felt like turning over a new leaf of sorts, and it gave her many more opportunities. Her grandmother had always told her to help others, to make a difference in the world - hence all the causes she stood for. Gaia had respected her for how she had cared for her mother through everything. At first, Gaia was ridiculously shy at her new school, what with heaps of people that she didn't know very well, and being an ickle ninth grader and everything. She then saw people wearing designer brands, littering, doing all kinds of things that didn't exactly help the state of the world. And these people would say the next minute how much they loved animals, and how pretty nature was. Hypocrites. She began to get really pissed off, and started yelling at people whenever these things happened. Some listened, some didn't. Most thought she was crazy, and maybe she was. She definitely had reason to be. And she remains angry to this day, only calming when she is alone with nature. She hopes the hypocrites are happy.
THE BEAUTY; Mate; N/A Miniatures; N/A Alliance; The Cause Specialty; Nature. She loves being around animals, plants, the works. In fact, she has even taken to having philosophical conversations with them. Sexuality; Straight Others; FEATHERLOLASEBASTIANACHILLEDAMOCLESYORICKDEIDREMNEMEHELLEDIONEEURYDICEVUKASIN.
