Vices: formidable; thoughtless; unforgiving; withdrawn; intolerant; cunning.


Virtues:creative; calculating; independent; persistent; decisive; resourceful.


Quirks: drums her fingers against the cover of her book when bored, or waiting for


something; uproots grass and/or flowers when angry or sulking; sings incoherently


when elated.


Fears: being overrun by darkness; having her creations turn against her, although


such a thing is unlikely considering they dispel at her will; ravines, or any drop with


an invisible bottom.


Skills: adaptability to situations, focusing on her ability to adapt at will very quickly


with little to no hesitation; listening, following her own claims that she can "hear"


people's fears; ability to work well under pressure - rarely does she feel or cave to


time constraints or expectations.


Likes: pastel colours; daisy chains and flower crowns; overgrown clearings; deer;


sitting on cliff edges and listening to the ocean; bringing her creations to life to keep


herself company - the island can be a lonely place sometimes.


Dislikes: strangers; people touching her things; being made a fool of; the thought


of being used as entertainment value; the assertion that she's weak for being both


young and female; fire.


Opinions: after spending almost a decade of her life on the island, Lauren's become


depressingly used to the annual battles to the point where she doesn't quite mind them


so much anymore and simply finds them both exciting and an outlet for her the anger


she bottles up for the remainder of the year. She gets a kick out of bringing monsters


down and loves looking for a window of opportunity to use some of her more prized


manifestations. As for the escape plan? She's both for it and against it. She wants to


get off of the island and go home as much as the next misfit but she's privately worried


about what will become of both her and her creations back in the real world.

Power: the master of Imagination Manifestation, Lauren's magical ability enables her


to summon anything from her own imagination into existence. Naturally, any wielder of


this form of magic tends to have their own stylistic approach to the entities/objects they


summon, with Lauren tending to follow a rather dark and demonic aesthetic. All of her


creations come forth accompanied with shadows, darkness, the whole shebang, and it


completely clashes with her demure and almost innocent outer appearance. For example


one of her favourite, and most frequently used, creatures is an impossibly gigantic black


snake complete with ominous violet eyes and fangs the size of people. (Like we're talking


twice the size of the Basilisk they had lurking in the Chamber of Secrets.) While not at all


necessary for her powers to activate, and her creations to manifest, Lauren frequently


hauls around an unmarked leather-bound book containing detailed notes on all of her


favourite and most-used manifestations as well as ideas for future ones.


 


Biography: growing up, Lauren was always a quiet child overlooked in favour of other


children. She was polite, kind and well-behaved to the point where barely anybody paid


attention to her because there was no reason to monitor her. While left alone to her own


devices she would frequently conjure cute little animals to play with in her bedroom, all of


them promptly disappearing whenever anyone came through the door. She never knew


exactly what she was doing, or how it worked, but she unconsciously did it anyway. But


the older she got, the less it happened, and soon enough her manifestations disappeared


completely to the point where she always dismissed them as vivid imaginary friends from


when she was "just a kid". As she entered middle school, Lauren quickly became a target


of bullies for being a teacher's pet and a goody-two-shoes who never broke the rules and


constantly snitched on students who did.


 


Raised under the short poem that "sticks and stones will break my bones but words will


never hurt me," she took the verbal abuse with little to no issue. It wasn't until shortly after


she turned 12 that things finally took too drastic a turn and her manifestations came back


in full force to defend her. An older boy due to leave that same year had approached her


and gleefully torn to shreds the book she'd been writing in; it had been a little journal her


dad had given her before going to work abroad in France, and she'd been writing down


a story in it ever since he'd left ready to show him when he returned. The last thing that


anyone remembered after Daniel Mason tore up Lauren's book was the sight of a 40 foot


spider writhing around on the playground crushing everything in sight. After that it was


bye bye New York for Lauren as she was carted off to the island and left never to see


her home again.
