Character Description
Height: 5'2'Weight: 105 Pounds
Hair Color/Length: Red / Shoulder Length
Eye Color: Green
Basic Description: Devon is the sort of person who could quite easily blend into a crowd: which in a way is kind of the whole point of the way she looks and dresses. While most people tend to try and stand out, to mark themselves as an individual, Devon prefers to be just another face, easily forgettable, easily missed.
She stands at a rather average five feet and two inches tall, and weighs in at only one hundred and five pounds. Her skin is pale, whether this is genetics or a quirk due to her spending the majority of her times indoors or wearing layers clothing, is anyone's guess. She has emerald green eyes that seem to 'pop' against otherwise pale skin, and wears a pair of black framed glasses. Hair, which is red in color, goes a smidgen past her shoulders and is normally held back in a ponytail with bangs slightly too short to fit back into the ponytail pushed to the sides of her face or tucked behind her ears.
Devon wears only a small bit of eyeliner and mascara, but otherwise goes without make-up or jewelry.
Her usual outfit consists of a black v-neck short sleeved shirt worn beneath a purple pull-over style hoodie. Over top of this hoodie can be found a blue standard issue FBI jacket with the words FBI written on the left breast, as well as in big lettering on the back: the front of the jacket normally being worn open to reveal the hoodie beneath. Paired with this is normally a pair of regular blue jeans, and finally a pair of black combat boots that the cuffs of the jeans are tucked into.
To complete her outfit Devon can sometimes be found with a deep gray colored carrier bag either slung across her chest in a diagonal, or otherwise hanging off of one of her shoulders.
General Information
Personality: Devon from the very beginning has shown a love for learning. With mathematics and science being her favorites she will immerse herself in almost any book that will and can increase her knowledge regardless of what it's about. Studying and research go hand in hand with this brainiac. However, despite all of this, Devon doesn't 'talk over' or 'talk down' to people. She holds conversations, and uses patterns of speech that anyone else can understand and keep up with. She realizes that not everyone else in the world is as smart as her, and in her mind that's okay. So, rather than flaunt her talents and use them to stand out, she keeps them hidden and goes on day to day as if she were just an average and ordinary person.This, of course, means that Devon is secretive. In truth? She has every reason and right to be. She knows that putting trust in just about anyone could have horrible results given the extent of the research she has done, as well as some of the power behind the inventions and technology that she has created. Stuff that in the wrong hands could likely even cause the end of the world, or the death of her friends and loved ones at the very least. So she tends to keep to her own tight-knit group that mostly consists of Company members, and keeps everyone else at an arms length until they have absolutely proved their loyalty and trust. She keeps her head down, her mouth shut, and goes through life blending in as much as possible: a face easily forgotten, easily missed. Devon feels that the less attention she brings onto herself the better: which often causes her to come off shy for those she is around for any length of time, but whom she's keeping at an arms length.
For those who do get close enough to see the real her they find her to be funny, witty, and usually with a grin on her face and a sarcastic comment to be made. Devon becomes an animated person around those she knows, and loves to see people smile and in a good mood. She's helpful, and loves to offer up a word of wisdom or helping hand to those in need. In all she's a complete and totally opposite person from the person she portrays herself to be in the public eye.
History: Devon's origins are really quite mysterious, and likely something that most people wouldn't believe to begin with: something that Devon keeps between herself and the few select people with the privileges to know. All that really is known about her is that around the age of eight or nine (the actual age unknown since her birth date was long forgotten to time) her older sister, Cala Jo, found her and brought her home to Edge City. For those not privy to the information it was as if she suddenly appeared out of thin air as this eight or nine year old little girl with no one willing to explain the how's or why's behind it.
Things were simply worked out so that the girl had a proper birth certificate, and the appropriate credentials to enter into school as well as to be able to go about life without issue or cause for worry.
During this time period Devon had to deal with a very protective older sister. Her sister wasn't human, and rather than stripping Devon of her own humanity and changing her into something 'other' she wanted to find another method of keeping Devon safe. The answer came thanks to Vigilante, Cala's boyfriend, who offered up some technology he had created called nanoids. These nanoids, when injected into Devon's bloodstream, would make her far harder to kill, as well as increasing her abilities: and so it was.
Devon from an early age showed an aptitude for being a brainiac. She loved absolutely everything to do with science and mathematics, and would spend hours immersed in reading and research: the jumping off point seeming to be the nanoids that had been injected into her. With her sister, Cala Jo, a member of the Company (an organization in charge of Edge City) Devon had a lot of resources at her disposal from a young age. These resources were used to expand her knowledge a great deal. By the time Devon entered high school at the of eleven (three years ahead of the rest of her peers) she was already taking advanced courses.
Devon, like most nerds, wasn't popular in school. From day one she gained a reputation of being the 'smart girl' the 'nerd' so to speak. Boys and girls alike only gave her attention when they wanted her help on a project so that they could easily get an A, or when they wanted to try and 'cheat' off of her paper or test. Devon didn't let it bother her, as she spent the majority of her time day dreaming about inventions and things she would build when she got home.
By the time Devon was fourteen years old she had graduated from high school an was being offered a job in the Company as head of the R&D (research and development) department: which she accepted immediately and without hesitation. From there Devon's skills thrived and grew, as did the inventions she created both for herself and for the Company.
After a year or two Devon ended up creating another lab in a different location to house the vast majority of her creations simply because they were becoming numerous. Armies of robots, inventions that could cause world wide destruction, technology that could make anyone drool. These were all hidden behind locks and doors to sophisticated to hack, as Devon knew that in the wrong hands they could cause devastating results.
Even to this day Devon continues to enhance technology, to create new inventions to both help and hinder mankind; all in secret, all while blending in with the world around her and going about as another anonymous figure.
The Extras
Faceclaim: Kinzie from Saints RowRP Sample: The tablet in her hand let out a soft, nearly muted, beep as Devon pressed the red 'button' on the screen. The beep signified the signal that was now being tracked. She had been looking for her target for some time, moving closer, and yet never seeming to get close enough. She had had to be careful: each step toward her goal made in secret so that no one noticed her.
Even now, as she waited for the scan to complete, she couldn't help but feel the hairs on the back of her neck stand up and a feeling of being watched creep over her. She knew she was likely being paranoid but one couldn't be too careful: especially not when searching for something this dangerous, this powerful. Oh, she had no intentions of using it for herself, but she did have every intentions of keeping it to herself and hiding it away where - hopefully - no one would find it. This kind of power just wasn't something she believed the world was ready for, it was the kind of power that could and likely would - in her opinion at least - be misused and mistreated.
If Devon were being honest she would also admit that she was curious; curious in ways a child would be even though she was now a teenager. Power like this, how it worked, how it functioned, it was the kind of thing she could spend years upon years studying and never grow bored of. She wouldn't admit that this was her plan, not even to herself, but were she to find her quarry that's precisely what was going to happen: from the secrecy and protection of her hidden lab of course.
Just as Devon's thoughts began to drift and paranoia began to set in the tablet let out another soft and near muted beep which caused her to look down: her target was nearby, close enough in fact that it was now showing up on the radar. With a grin on her face Devon muttered "Excellent." beneath her breath and stood from her crouched position on the roof, and made her way toward the fire escape that would lead her back to the street below...
