Background:
Rainie Yang was born in Taiwan, she can't remember a thing about living there as her family moved to New Jersey when she was only 1 years old, her father having gotten a great job offer there. The first years of her life were quite normal, living in your regular family in your regular house in a nice and quiet neighborhood. Her powers didn't start to show until she was six years old, playing with her brother in the backyard. As she was the younger one her brother took pleasure out of bullying her, chasing her with a ball, threatening to hit her with it, hard, when he actually threw it at her she orbed herself without realizing it out of fear of being hit into the tree that they had in the backyard leaving her brother and her parents who had come out to tell her brother Brandon off speechless.
It was then where everything went down hill. She was taken out of school her parents afraid that she might do this little trick of hers there and they couldn't risk anyone finding out about their daughters little problem. They weren't mad at her nor did they treat her like a freak but Rainie had felt from that moment on that they looked at her differently. They kept her inside as much as possible, not allowing her to play with other children, home schooled and basically being shunned from the outside world. Her parents did it to protect her afraid that if anyone else found out they would take her and use her as a guinea pig but as it was quite easy to spend time alone as a child the older she got the harder it became. She began to crave for a normal life, to do the things she saw girls do in tv shows, shopping hanging out with boys go to the movies just being free instead of always being at home.
It didn't matter how often she begged with her parents they wouldn't let her go out and make friends the only time she got out was with her parents and even then they kept a close eye on her. She eventually became depressed, barely leaving her room, feeling like a freak and hating the ability she got but even so she began to do some research, trying to see that maybe there was a cure for this and she could lead a normal life again. Obviously there wasn't and she gave up on finding answers on the internet or in books, instead she began to explore to what an extend her ability reached. After months, years even of trying things out she found out that if she focused on a spot, visualized it she could orb herself there without actually needing to be scared, she also found out that she could not only orb herself to places also objects, moving them from a spot on the table to her own hand or even through the hair. It was then she began to entertain herself by bullying her brother or annoying her parents, orbing objects they were holding away. How ever it was only fun for so long.
Often she considered just orbing away from home, it was oh so easy but where was she suppose to go? She was only seventeen years old with no money or knowledge of the outside world but she had begun to wonder if there were more people like her out there. When she turned eighteen her parents gave her a card to a bank account with money on it, money for college and they promised her that she could go as she had proven herself in control of her powers. How ever when she graduated and leaving the house came closer her parents changed their mind - her father did - afraid of what might happen if she happened to slip, he forbid her to go, she could study at home. It was then that something snapped inside of that usual cheerful timid girl that barely fought, what was the point in studying when she was stuck at home? She fought with her father, threatening to just leave. Her father told her that if she dared to leave she did not need to return again and that was exactly what she did. That evening she took her belongings the card with money on it and just left, taking public transportation to New York, the big city where she could lead a normal life, where she could explore and find out who she actually was and maybe find others like her.
It was harder than she thought, the city large and intimidating filled with all kinds of people she had never seen before and it scared and excited her at the same time. With the money that was meant for college she rented a small apartment, found herself a job at a cute little cafe.
Now nineteen years old she is trying to figure out what to do with her life, she really wants to go to college but doesn't have the money for it at the moment so she is slowly saving up even if she isn't so sure what to actually do.
Rainie is a sweet girl, having overcome most of her depression but occasionally she has fall backs, especially since city life is quite lonely for a girl like her, besides her colleagues and the people who come at the cafe and her cat Smooch she doesn't have anyone to talk to. She likes to read a lot and spend her time on the internet doing useless things or make pictures of herself. She also is very naive and gullible the effect of being shunned to the outside world and it has often already gotten her into trouble as people take advantage of it.
