Poppy Reed
Name: Poppy Reed
Nickname: Poppet, Pop Pop
Age: 19
Birthplace: England
Sex: Female
Occupation: Unemployed
Appearance: Poppy is small, standing at 5’4, and slim, and only has a very slightly curvy figure. She is very pale, with smooth skin, green eyes and long curly red hair. She could be considered quite pretty.
Generally she wears jeans and a t-shirts not seeing the point of dressing up all nice. Though when she’s working she tends to wear figure hugging black trousers and top.
Personality: Poppy is usually very calm and calculating, but you if can get her to stop working for a time she’s actually very fun loving and up for a good time. Though don’t let her father know that, especially when it comes to human boys.
Special abilities/talents: Well she can cook and clean, and she has a very sharp mind and is usually quite alert. Her real talents lie with machines though, she can make then purr.
Supernatural Affinity:
Species/Group: Human
Power(s): None
History: Poppy doesn’t know who her real parents are, because of the story her adoptive father told her. He said she had been abandoned as a baby and he had taken her in. In truth he had snatched the child and taken her as his own. The vampire having lost his mind somewhat about a century earlier, he wanted a child and so he took one.
He did take good care of her though, she never really wanted for anything. And in turn as she grew older when she wasn’t at school he taught her about the supernatural and how to take of the house should he be away or sleeping. She loves her father very much and would do almost anything for him.
By the time she was three they had moved to Mysteria and bought a small farm there where they keep a few cattle and a horse. She did well all the way through school but didn’t often interact with other children, she wasn’t sure how. Even in her teens her father insisted she was home before dark and so she was. It is starting to grate a little though, she wanted to see and experience more of what life has to offer, there has to be more even in this town, and she wants to find out what.
Flaws:
Curiosity – Poppy finds all different types of people interesting, and is constantly asking blunt questions about the supernatural, sometimes in ear shot of random strangers. The thing she is most curious about though is humans, how they live and interact and what they do. Which being human herself is not the things she should be wanting to know at almost twenty years of age.
Nightmares – Poppy often has nightmares, vivid horrific nightmares that can send her running from her bed screaming. She can not usually recall what they were about but often mutters something about monsters while sleeping.
Over protective parent – Her father is very protective, almost to the point where he would like her to stay young and innocent. He may not age but she does and he likes it less and less each day. And if he deems anything a threat to his daughter or something that may take her away, he will use everything he has to destroy it or otherwise get rid.
Merits:
Concentration – Poppy can be extremely focused, it takes a lot to break her concentration, some times its even single minded concentration
Iron Will – Poppy is stubborn, and beyond. Once she’s made up her mind about something that’s it, there’s no changing it.
Mechanical Aptitude – She just gets machines, and it’s all self taught so she’s not even sure how or why, she just understands them and knows how to make them do what she wants.
Sexual Orientation: Straight
PB: Rachel Hurd-Wood
