Bridgette Celeste Drews-Xavier
Name: Bridgette Celeste Drews-Xavier
Nickname: Bee or Bree
Age: Sixteen
Birthplace: Park River, North Dakota
Sex: Female
Occupation: Bridgette works as a waitress at a local diner, even though
she really doesn't want to.
Appearance:
If anyone has been pulled from the classic teenage girl mold it's
Bridgette Drews. She's rather tall for her age, standing at five feet
eight inches high with a figure that makes it obvious that she doesn't
just sit still all day. Her skin is pale but not so much that it looks
as if she's permanently sick, and her cheeks are dotted with freckles
and generally have a naturally rosy hue. The really unique thing about
the young woman is her incredibly round face, and full, pouty lips that
add an air of sweetness to whatever she says. Aside from her light
skin the girl has naturally wavy brown hair (she straightens it often)
that shines naturally and compliments her deep hazel eyes.
Dressing every morning is something that this young woman takes great
pride in. Her wardrobe consists of a great range of colors and
fabrics, things that flow, things that fit perfectly and things that
are just plain fun to put on. Accessorizing is big with Bridgette too;
she owns tons of vintage jewelry, bags, and shoes (as most of her
shopping is done at thrift stores). While her outfits are well thought
out, her makeup is amazingly toned down unless she feels like shocking
you with a bright orange shade of eye-shadow. Generally she sticks to
shades of grey and natural tones when it comes to such things.
When she finds reason (or when her temper strikes her) to spread her
wings and show her true self it doesn't take a whole lot of work. Her
light crimson 'half-wings' are only about two feet in length and
consist of an array of red feathers. When they're not being used for
flight Bridgette stores her wings, and they are hidden behind two
identical v-shaped scars on her back.
Personality:
Bridgette is a complex being in every single sense of the word. Her
upfront demeanor makes it seem like the girl is nothing more than a
listener, one of those that lets the world go by as she takes notes and
tries to figure everything out for herself, and on some level she is
just that. But there seems to be much more to her than that if you
look hard enough. She doesn't say much upon first meeting her, and
never says anything that could let you try to figure her out unless she
feels like she can trust you. Her life was built on secrets, and now
that she's more or less on her own she wants to start over. Her mind
works in a way that causes her to question the world around her and
everything and everyone that she meets. She wants (longs even) to know
more, to know how things tick. The girl is a curious being, and
sometimes that coupled with her recklessness can get her in trouble.
When she's at ease with those around her she speaks more. Really,
Bridgette is a sarcastic girl who speaks what's on her mind and doesn't
tend to hold anything back. She is honest, and expects you to be
honest with her, she'll trust you easily enough but once you do
something to show that you don't respect that trust...well it'll be a
very long time until you can get it back. She loves in a way that
pains her, and when someone she loves hurts her she doesn't take it
lightly. While most people find weakness in tears, Bridgette is able
to embrace them with the knowledge that they make her more human than
she ever really could be. Her anger too is something that she marvels
at, because when she is mad all of the constraints that she forces
herself to keep melt away. She isn't one for confontation, but she
will yell if she feels the need to do so.
Special abilities/talents: Bridgette's ability to feel emotions can
often lead her to glimpse bits of what their reactions would be to
certain things at the time that they're feeling said emotion. She also
seems to be very good at calming people down, though that could just be
due to her caring nature.
Supernatural Affinity:
Species/Group: Guiding Angel
Power(s): Can feel the emotions of those around her subtly within
herself.
Level: N/A
Affiliation/Rank: N/A
Preferred Prey: N/A
History:
Bridgette Celeste Drews was born to Missy Drews on August 3rd, 1990 in
Park River, North Dakota. As a child Bridgette didn't find it odd that
her mother was raising her on her own, in fact the girl preferred it
that way, but once it became apparent that Bee was different from other
children her mother shied away. The mystery of why a tiny pair of
wings fluttered from the young girls back whenever she got upset was
one that was never really cleared up by Missy until her death, and as a
child, this difference nearly ruined Bridgette's life. Her classmates
ridiculed her, and her teachers wouldn't have her in the room, claiming
she was playing some sort of cruel trick.
As she grew Bridgette began to resent her mother for not explaining
things to her, for not comforting her, and for not being around more.
Missy tended to stay out later the older her daughter got to be,
bringing men home at all hours of the night and never telling Bridgette
where their next meal was going to come from. Somehow, though, the
young girl managed to cope with it all and prove to her teachers that
she was smarter than they thought she was. Over time she learned to
manage her wings, and ignore the snide remarks her peers made about her
mother. She blocked the world out, and let very few people in.
On her sixteenth birthday the girls world was turned on its head;
Missy was found inside her apartment by Bridgette, passed out on her
bed. The girl called an ambulance but by the time they got there it
was too late, her mother had already died of a drug overdose. For the
next few months she was tossed from foster parent to foster parent
until she decided she'd had enough and set out to find her biological
father. She had a name, and a photograph her mother had kept in her
dresser drawer. Somehow she ended up sitting at the bus station in
Mysteria, clutching the address of a bar in her hand, and wondering if
Gideon Xavier might have the answers she'd searched for for all of her
life.
Flaws:
~Bridgette questions nearly everything, and her curiosity and longing
for knowledge can often get on peoples nerves and get her in much more
trouble than the answers are worth. She still tries to get them,
though.
~Her intense honesty and lack of knowledge of when to shut up lead
people to dislike the young woman a lot more often than they probably
otherwise would. She's really not trying to be mean, but when it comes
to her she believes that honesty is more important than anything, even
if it hurts.
~Bridgette suffers from chronic migraines. It seems to be just one of
the traits she's inherited from her father, and it's one of the more
painful ones. When one of them hits her she hides out under her covers
until it's gone, and prefers not to do anything but sleep.
Merits:
~Her best personality trait is Bridgette's ability to care. She is
always non-judgemental and will try to help you out no matter what kind
of situation you find yourself in. So far there's only been one person
in her life that she hasn't been able to save, and that was because
they didn't want the help.
~This girl has an amazing listening ability. If you need her to sit
next to you while you rattle off a list of everything that sucks in
your life she will, and if you want her advice...well she can give you
that too.
~She's a smart cookie. Her intelligence often amazes those around her
and she is quick to find a way out of nearly every situation that could
end badly. It also gives her the chance to know just what to say.
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Preferred PB (played-by): Emily Browning
