Layla Real-Last-Name-Unknown. However, there are very few that know even that, as she goes by many aliases. Sex: Female Current Job: Performing for the masses Former Job: Gang member, later an undercover ISSP agent Stats: Build- average, with lean muscle. Height- about average, 5'5". Eyes- dark brown, and almond-shaped. Hair- long, falls to the small of her back, and has bangs. The tips of her hair and bangs are dyed a shocking lime green. She usually keeps it in a high ponytail--otherwise, it gets in the way all the time. Birthdate- unknown. However, she appears to be around 20. Wearing: x A plaid flannel scarf. The colors in the pattern are white, light grey, dark grey, and small stripes of red. On one of the ends, there is a skull-and-crossbones patch stitched on. x A black spaghetti-strap tanktop x A black, chunky studded belt x Dark gray cargo pants that are one size too large and have a rip in one knee. The other leg of her pants is usually rolled up to just below her knee. x Black Chuck Taylors with checkered laces x Colorful plastic bracelets (she swiches the colors nearly every day) x An assortment of cheap stainless steel rings Miscellaneous Items: An acoustic guitar in a hard case, with plenty of picks and extra strings. It is made of a rare black wood. Opposite the guitar in the case, there is a hidden back where she keeps a .45 compact automatic with ammo. Her gun can fire special grenade cartriges from it. Personality: Free-spirited and carefree, but not to the point of deserting those in danger, or ceasing to think about where her next meal will come from. She is very smart, but likes to play the dumb girl to lead people on. She loves performing, especially old 20th century music, as that is what she's most familiar with. Talents: Layla sings quite well, with a strong, soulful voice. She can also play the piano and guitar excellently. Her talent that got her employed with the ISSP, however, is her excellent marksmanship, and better-than-average technical expertise. She also enjoys baking, but although half of her "experiments" turn out delicious, the other half lurk in back rooms and turn into hideous piles... History: Layla was born on earth, and, shortly thereafterwards, was given to an orphanage. She was wrapped in a blanket, put in a basket, and left on the doorstep. An Eric Clapton Greatest Hits CD was tied to the handle, so that's how she got her name. Despite having no parents, she had a quite normal, enjoyable childhood. She moved out a few years ago, and struck out into space. But, she soon fell in with the wrong crowd. An upstart street gang, in fact. From her "sisters" and "brothers" she learned how to shoot a gun and kill, something that was in direct conflict that the sisters at the orphanage had taught her: to love all people, and to respect life. She knew what she was doing was wrong, and turned herself into the ISSP. The outcome wasn't one that she had expected. Instead of going to jail, they trained her to be an ISSP agent. Her mission: to take down the blossoming gang from the inside. If she could do that, she would be exonerated of all charges. And so, she did. She came up with, and carried out, a plan to turn the gang members against each other. All of the upper-eschelon members died. Only a few small fry escaped. Feeling even more horrible than before, she went to the ISSP and turned in her badge, never to return. ... This is where she finds herself. Looking up into the sky, to space, and wondering what the future holds, what she's meant to do with her life. She has resolved to travel around until she finds what she's looking for, or until her destiny finds her. She has decided that she will do it without hurtful gangs or the pressure of laws breathing down her neck. |

I like Layla-- she sounds cool! |

I'll probably think of something new, though, just to mix things up. Approved! - The Administration |

I might make another character if things need balancing out, or if you want to do one or both of your violin players >__> Chris-- two words: "Action Jackson." xD He's kind of half-formed. If I get time in English tommorrow (most likely...) than maybe I'll work on him. |
