Description: Letecia is a slim, short 14 year old South American girl. Her long braided hair reaches the lower of her back. She looks fragile and weak (and actually is) and one of her front teeth is growing oddly, but she is neither an exceptionally pleasing nor unpleasing view.. more of a mousy.

Background
She was born in a small village in northern Brazil, at the Vaupes near the Columbian border, which was determining to her fate. Even when she was a little baby, her parents had a hard time with her. She would suddenly disappear and be found in strange places after the whole village was busy looking for her. This happened more than once, and as she grew older it became obvious that she had an odd gift... her parents were trying to hide it, but it was too late.
When Letecia was four years old, a Drug Cartel across the border heard the story about the small girl who was able to move from one place to another in no-time, unseen. A few hired thugs with guns raided over the border, shot a few villagers, and demanded Letecia, coldly killing her parents when they hesitated.
Letecia grew up halfway as foster-child, halfway as slave of a Drug Baron, totally subjugated and broken. Since the age of eight, when she could use her power more or less reliably, she was forced to use her Teleportation to transport drugs across borders or out of reach of the border patrols. Despite being pushed a lot, her range increased only slowly with time. Life was hell for her, regularly beaten and pushed over her limits, punished hard for any mistake, counterword or even without any reason. Yelled at and threatened into obedience.
Then fate intervened. She was just delivering a larger shipping of pure heroin, so large she barely could lift it, to a Drug house in the southern USA, and passed out due to the long range she was forced to cover from the Mexican border.
When she came to her senses again, she was in a hospital, and a very nice American police officer and a woman in a grey dress asked her many questions, and promised her that everything would become better from now on. A Charity Organisation took pity on her and took care of her well being.
She remained in Psychological treatment for a while, learning English, reading and writing, and some other basic knowledge which she had been deprived of, while trying to learn a new life was waiting for her. It turned out that Letecia is quite a bright girl.
The charity organisation took care of her naturalisation, and even paid the School's fees... and Letecia agreed to have her story told by the organisation, to bring more people to donate or commit some effort.
Personality
Letecia is still somewhat shy, but otherwise she is quiet and nice, even though she knows little about formal politeness. She tries to suit everybody, even though her therapist (who she is still regularly visiting) told her to take more care about what she wants herself, and that she does not need to worry about people being discontented with what she does or says. She still has a long way to go, but she is progressing.
Powers
Letecia is a Teleporter. She also has some practice with the power already.
Random Facts

- She plays the pipes of Pan, and is actually really good. She has a small flute hanging around her neck under the clothes like an Amulet, and whenever she feels sad or lonely, she gets it out and plays.
- Letecia has small round burn scars on her forearm, and the ring finger of her left hand is stiff, after being broken and not treated.
