Character Background
Amber was first created by Kary far back in 2004 at a short lived RPG called "And All Creation"; however there are record that she had made a similar nephilim-type character back in 2003 in another short-lived and long-dead RPG owned by one of her friends. Kary had always been fascinated by angels and mythology, thus where her inspiration for her Goth Loli Nephilim was born. However, the Mega EZboard Hack-Attack of 2004 had attacked and wiped out the contents of many boards, including many where Kary had frequented. All Characters she owned were salvaged but the attack led to the demise of And All Creation. During troubling times with another board, Kary found MHS and its rival AHS, but chose the former for the opportunity to play Amber again. She considers Amber her "pet project".

Personality
Amber appears to be a soft-spoken loner and a constant daydreamer in class, especially Math. She often seems detached from everything that goes on around her, lost in her own thoughts. She has a habit of observing other people from a distance at first, especially if a person strikes her as intriguing. She's simply afraid of what others would think of her if they knew of her strange heritage and would prefer to be alone to protect herself. Because of this fear, she seems to treat people with little warmth and distance. Despite this, people are still drawn to her (fortunate or unfortunately). Since her stay in MHS however, she has become more friendly and warm while meeting new people but preferring to still keep them at arm’s length until she knows more about them. Amber stays away from crowds, and gets visibly nervous when people stand too close to her or stare at her wings.
It’s not easy to tell what it takes to push Amber’s buttons, but there are a few that exist. Touching her wings immediately (though she tries not to let it happen) causes her to lash out with a punch or kick, as her wings are sensitive to touch. The issue of “judgment” arouses a violent reaction from her, however the reason for it is only known to Amber. Rarely does she say what bothers her, the few that knows her well enough could figure out when there is something on her mind.
Those who are proven to be trustworthy actually find that beneath the initial distance is a loyal, playful girl and highly knowledgeable in world folklore. In other words, she's as cute as the goth-loli image she presents herself. However, not very many people are lucky to see that side of her save her mother and Ria.
There is a violent edge to Amber's sweet personality, but it is something that she's highly protective and secretive about. The fewer that knows about this darker side, the better. The few that see it, she implores for their silence. This agressive side to Amber is still a mystery to her, but she's aware that it is an innate part of her existance. She's unable to recall memories or anything that occurs when she taps into this hostility, but she can piece an idea of what happens from her dreams and flashes of memories. At times, the memories are too much and engages in a ritual: she locks herself in her dorm room for a few days and then emerges feeling well enough. She rarely tells other what those dreams tell her, save for her closest friends.
Her talents include a vast knowledge of mysticism and occult, sewing, speaking Latin (she just doesn't realize that she can) and knowing a passable amount of Japanese. She also has the ability to think in "manga form", basically her feelings to certain situations can be summed up in a panels of manga purely existing in her imagination. Her hobbies are making custom "Dollfies" of people she knows, Tai Chi and practicing tea ceremony. She loves to write and she hates math describing it as a "fixed nightmare." She hopes to design and sell her own costumes someday.
Biography
Amber was born on October 1st under very abnormal circumstances. As a child, her mother Ciana would tell her the same story; in her days as a hit man for the CIA, a crucial mission in Russia went horribly wrong. She was at death's door when a handsome and mysterious man rescued her. The two fell in love while she had been in recovery, married a year later and moved to the tranquil city of Savannah, Georgia. One day, he revealed to her his darkest secret: he really was an angel on Earth! Amber was born a few months later, and as a child she was cheerful and radiant as sunlight with the ability to talk to total strangers with ease. Her mother truly believed she had an angelic princess of a daughter.
While Amber may have never fully believed the stories her mother told her, a lot of facts about her father seemed to make sense. She could barely remember her father's face, he called several time by phone to speak to her and visited once in a while. Over time, the calls ceased and so did the visits. Ciana's reply to her father’s diminishing prescense was simple and warm, "He cannot always be around for us, but he still loves us more than anything. He maybe will be able to return someday to tell you that himself."
Amber wished no ill feelings on her father, and she and her mother moved on with life. Ciana moved often to different countries in an effort to culture her daughter, especially spending much of their time in Japan. There Amber met an energetic young girl named Ria Misaki who immediately became attached to her and was her first friend. Two years later, they moved to Los Angeles where strange things began to happen. Amber began to realize something about herself was different; she could hear whispers around her even when alone, she could sporadically sense the personalities of others. Most of all, a dull pain and two mysterious scars appeared on her back. It was nothing serious, she believed that it was all in her mind, all the stress of moving around and such.
Finally on her 14th birthday, she sprouted a pair of small white wings and the truth was realized. The love story between her father and mother were true; she was a nephilim, the forbidden result of love between a mortal and an angel. New questions blossomed: what would she do with her wings? What really happen to her father? Was she a monster? What would people think of her? What was she?
Ria moved to the States to stay with them shortly after her wings grew out. Amber revealed her wings to her friend and was relieved when Ria completely (and oddly enough) accepted the change. Ria's suggestion to Amber's wing problem was to adopt the style of Gothic Lolita in order to disguise the wings as accessories. Embaressing at first, but Amber come to adore the style, used to the stares and awestruck gazes as she walked the streets of Los Angeles in flowing dresses of black lace and soft ribbons. The look worked for her and she could continue with the Gothic Lolita look for years to come.
Less than a month after her birthday, a strange package arrived on Amber's doorstep, a long box and a small white box stacked one on the other. The small white box held a shimmering crystal pendant and a note in neat handwriting was wrapped around it. "You are unique, in your birth and purpose. Awareness is Key and Focus is Light. Take care, Little Wing." Inside the box was a Tai Chi sword, not as sharp but sturdy with an indent on the hilt where the pendulum was able to fit. The appearance of the sword and pendulum strikes a curious chord with Amber, what could she do with such a strange sword.
Along with her new weapons came a series of odd occurances came with her wings; eccentric people with unearthly auras, strange letters in Latin without return addresses, the feelings of being constantly watched. Somewhere between learning and adjusting to her new self, she felt what true nephilim blood felt like. A series of gruesome deaths stained her hands and led to her decision to supress her more violent being. To date, she still dare not speak about what she did or what had happened to cause it; but it's clear that she regrets what actions she took.
Those regrets persuaded Amber to enroll in special training with Ria's grandfather. For two years, he taught her the basics of Zen, Tai Chi, balance and chi energy. Her training was suddenly interrupted when Ciana without reason suddenly moves Ria and Amber and enroll them both to new schools. With Ria still in middle school, Amber is faced with having to be alone at her new school, MHS.
Unlike her previous schools, Amber seemed to have found a place for herself among the many different students that come to MHS and she finally had been able to make quite a few friends and a handful of close friends. Little by little, she opened up herself to others and made a significant change; from a shy and reserved to cheerful and friendly towards everyone she meets. Aside from the many changes, the problems she faces never leaves her mind or her dreams. The past and the karma she has built up threatens to catch up to her and destroy her. Even though she has now found support among her close friends, she still wishes to protect them from the dark side of herself, and the agents of Heaven and Hell that have now been appearing more and more often...
