NAME: Alison Hayden Smyth
AGE: 9
POWER:
- Acid Blood: Her blood is highly acidic, though looks normal in appearance. Her blood can burn many things but has not reached full potency yet, so it’s can’t burn it’s way through human skin, or metals only being able to work it’s way through light materials at the moment.
- Slight Healing Factor: Her blood is acidic to herself as well, though her body has adapted to be able to take more acidic substances than normal. However, the only reason she can really keep this up and give her body time to adapt is a slight healing factor. The healing factor is working to keep the acid from burning herself until the point in time when her body is able to do this itself. To this end, her healing ability can’t heal her from anything other than a small bruise or paper cut until the time when her body is used to acidic substances. It is unknown whether she will then fully take on a healing ability, but it is rather unlikely.

DESCRIPTION:
Alison stands at 4’6’’ inches, and is around 66lbs. She’s a little small for her age, but otherwise looks pretty average. Of course, at 9 years old she is still growing, and has a little bit of baby fat on her still. Hailing from Edinburgh in Scotland, she has pale skin and a few freckles. Her hair is long and a rich shade of red. It goes down quite a bit past her shoulders, and as it constantly annoys her Ali ties it back up into a messy pony-tail at any opportunity.
Her clothes are usually plain and simple, nothing that stands out or makes a statement. She likes wearing things that are comfy, but has started to look more at clothes now.

PERSONALITY:
Alison is rather shy and won’t speak unless spoken to. Much of her personality is a reflection of her mother – her father always being away (he’s the head of a construction company that takes on a lot of jobs outside Edinburgh city where the family lives) - and isn’t really what she would do in a situation or like to do. Her mother is an extremely religious catholic who has tried to teach Alison in the ways of that – though as Alison is still young, she has only been taught what her mother feels is the ‘main lessons’. However, unlike most people her mother thought the main lessons dealt with the devil and sins. Alison has never wished to believe in the devil or any such things, but her mother has so pressed upon her the idea of the devil being inside sinners that when she first discovered her powers she was utterly terrified of them and even now doesn’t know what to think of them causing her to go even further into her scared and shy shell. She tries not to show her fears, but on the inside, especially when her powers first emerged she wondered what it was that she had done wrong and how she had sinned – this increased upon her mothers screeching and shouting.
Part of Alison, however, has always rebelled. When finally she started to talk to people at her primary school she gained a touch more confidence. She likes comedies, and pop music – which her mother forbids her to listen to. She has the ability within her to be spontaneous and stubborn and a little bit brave – she has tried standing up to her mother at times – but in new situations she constantly reverts back to being shy.
One good thing about her mothers preachings and (something her father taught her, kindly (she loves her father but is unsure of her mother) is that she is kind to just about everyone. She’s happy to help others – if she can get talking to them long enough to find out what they need help with.

THE EVENTS OF MY POWERS EMERGENCE:
She had done a bad thing, and now she was being horribly punished for it. What she had done that was so horrendous she wasn’t entirely sure, but what else could have happened to cause such a… a….
Alison sniffed, her good hand going up to wipe tears away from her face as no one else was going to do it for her. She was sitting in the middle of her driveway with her bike lying sprawled behind her; one hand was sporting a nasty gash on the palm and there was a redness now growing around the cut and a stinging pain. She watched, utterly horrified as a drop of blood fell to the ground and the weeds growing up between the bricks were hit. For a moment it looked as though perhaps everything was now back to normal and her blood was normal, and not the blood of anything evil, or a sinner, or whatever it was now… it was just a small drop of blood that had fallen from a cut on a childs hand that had occurred after falling off her bike. But no, after a second a the tip of the weed wilted and almost disintegrated.
A sob escaped the young girl and she drew her knees up to her chest, wrapping the arm attached to the good hand around them. The stinging in her hand was growing worse, but she felt worse than just that. She didn’t have a clue what was going on. She had been cut before and nothing bad had happened. But now, she didn’t know what was going on with her.
Her mother had gone inside just before this latest drop of blood had fallen, shrieking about the devil being in her child. But that wasn’t true, was it? She was just Alison, and she had never really believed her mothers talk of the devil, or people being punished… had she? Yet what other explanation was there? Things like this didn’t just happen, Alison knew that.
Looking at her hand, she noticed that new blood was no longer appearing. Taking in a shaky breath, she stood up and looked over at her fallen bike. Her eyes then trailed to the open door of her house. It was best to get washed up now. Wash whatever it was away…
She didn’t look back at the small singed burn marks on the bricks, and at dinner that day she’d had to make a sandwich herself as her mother wouldn’t even look at her. But as Alison passed her by in the hallway, her mother made the sign of the cross. Alison, tearful had ran straight to her room and cried, trying to convince and make herself know that she had never believed in her mothers religious preachings before and that she shouldn’t start now.
