Appearance
Khepri's fragile looking at first glance, with a thin and willowy figure for her height. And, for the most part, she is. Despite all the wrestling she did with her brothers and the amount of food she consumes, Khepri has never managed to put on any mass, whether muscle or fat. Her hair (blonde if RL PB, brown otherwise) is normally left down and hangs to about mid-back in light waves. Not much effort is put into hair maintenance, which shows from day to day.
During class, Khepri will always appear in the morning with her hair in a neat bun, decked out in a carefully pressed business suit. By the end of the day, the bun's replaced by a wavy mess of tangles and her jacket and shoes are lying in the vicinity of her desk. A T-shirt sporting some inane message has also been acquired along the course of the day, but she's quick to switch back if any of the officials happen to drop by. Outside of classes, Khepri's all about the casual wear and wearing what she wants. She likes long skirts coupled with long-sleeved tops, but mostly anything loose and comfortable. She absolutely hates high heels and is more often out of her shoes than in them.
Khepri's PB is Lisa Kudrow. (Anime PB is Yukari Tanizaki from Azumanga Daioh!)
Personality
In one word, Khepri is explosive. Charisma is clearly a trait she's got going for her and she's quick to talk her way through a situation. Or into one. Some could call her inspiring; her carefree way of living life could be seen as admirable and when it's necessary, she can get down and concentrated on the tasks at hand. Very few are stupid enough to do so. Mostly everyone wonders how the hell this woman managed to avoid being put into a psychiatric ward all this time.
The problem is Khepri constantly crosses the line between charisma and completely insane. She practically plays jump rope with it. Between the random topics of conversation she tends to pick out of nowhere with her bad habit of making lewd comments, it's amazing that she's managed to keep her job. Her passion for the business world often gets in the way of her serious teaching and silly details like logic and sense aren't factors that she allows to get in her way when she's on a roll. Teachers and students alike know she's loud and aggressive, to the point of where you're left wondering what sort of cliff she was dropped off of as a child.
However, no matter how much of nut she can be, anyone can see that she knows business in and out and, one way or another, her students learn the true and tried tricks of the trade that a book can't teach them. Whether these are morally correct tricks is still up for debate, but rest assured that they are legal.
History
Originally Khepri Tierney, Khepri was born as one in a set of triplets, the youngest of the three. However, there were complications during the delivery and her mother passed away a few months after they were born, leaving her now single father to raise three kids on his own. All things considered, he didn't do too bad, but the amount of time he had to put into his job left the three children to essentially raise themselves. He never did remarry, but Khepri and her two brothers had no problems getting through life with just their father.
Her two brothers were and always have been a crucial part of Khepri's life, just as she was to theirs. The three would always talk together before making any important decisions and nothing was kept secret. Their childhood and teenage years breezed by and soon they found themselves readying to enter the working force. Khepri's initial plans were never to become a teacher, but to enter the business world. She believed that business was where the money was, and always would be, at, so she was eager to jump in herself. Her father, however, had always hinted at the fact that he wanted one of them to become a teacher, just like their mother had been before she passed away and it was a mutual, though heavily debated, decision between the triplets for Khepri to follow in her mother's footsteps.
With that final decision, Khepri began down the path of the teacher. She refused to let go of the business world though and aimed to earn herself a degree in teaching and business, in case she ever left the teaching world in order to pursue her true passion. She attended the same college as both of her brothers, each following their own career choice, but one after the other, they eventually graduated and left Texas.
Khepri was the last one remaining when she finished earning her degree at the age of 26, taking up a teaching position close to home to keep her father company. She was, however, getting antsy about leaving the state as well, not wanting to be the last one left behind. While searching for a new place to work, an unexpected event happened.
As the result of a rash and partially drunken decision, Khepri got married in Vegas at the age of 28 to a childhood friend of hers, Koa Adams. The marriage itself went quite smoothly, but neither of them could take the relationship seriously enough to see themselves as in love. Rather, Koa had always been like Khepri's third brother and best friend (just with a few extra benefits now).
Khepri found a job with Second Heaven a year after her marriage to Koa and quickly applied. She and Koa moved to Schubert and found themselves a decent-sized house to live in. Koa took up a job within the city while Khepri began her new teaching career, keeping constant contact with her family through letters and e-mail.
Two years into her job, there was a mutual decision between Khepri and Koa to divorce. It was by no means an awkward break up, but allowing both of them to be able to enjoy the dating world a little while longer. They also decided to continue living together and remained close friends. On a whim, Khepri decided to keep his last name and now constantly introduces herself as Koa's sister, if only to mess with people's minds.
