Name: Jaquellene "Jack" Dyllan
Age: 18
Tier: n/a
Ability Desired: Nonverbal Magic, Apparation, Empathy
A Detailed History Behind Said Ability: Noverbal and apparation are learned abilites from Hogwarts.
Empathy- When Jack was preparing to leave for Hogwarts, for the first time in her life she was actually happy- having always been sort of a brooding character as she was sort of a bitter outcast from family, school, neighborhood kids, etc. About a month before she was preparing to leave, her family pulled the rug from under her and told her that she was a freak, she would not be attending, and they planned on sending her off for psychiatric help.
Needless to say, a lot of negative emotions hit Jack, flaring her already rather unstable emotional state, progressing the spiteful, negative, bitter young girl to become even more so. Little did she know, she released enough negative and destructive energy to creat a poltergeist that would take on the name of Vito Dee Symons. Jack never realized she created him at the time, nor did Vito know who his creator was.
Jack eventually got to Hogwarts with the help of her rich uncle and she lived a fairly normal life at first. She was unaware of the connection she had to Vito, but that no doubt was what brought them together in theur first meeting that led them to become rivals, always claiming to dislike the other, yet still inexplicably drawn to each other.
The releasing of emotions is a strange spiritual thing and it planted a seed in Jack- whether or not she was aware of it or in control of it, she could connect to Vito's emotions, as could he- hence, when one was moody, they were a disatrous pair. Soon, this connection manifested into the capability to sense and recognize emotion, regardless of who or where. Jack is by nature rude abd tough, but her mind was always sensitive to the feelings of those in great distress (not to say she was, but her psyche was.)
In the summer she turned seventeen, thing began to take s our turn with Vito and emotions ran high. That seed really began to sprout then. She began to have what she thought was an unlucky yet impeccable sense for being drawn to a person in need, though what she failed to realize was that this was an ability not some sort of fluke.
The first instance where it happened, she was drawn to Chase Moor being attacked by Vito. Emotions ran incredibly high and he attempted to kill her. With his failure, she began to become more in tune with Chase's and Vito's feelings, which she assumed came from the shared experience. When the summer party rolled around, destroying Jack's temporary mental/psychological state was sent to shambles, making her even more painstaking aware of the emotions of others.
The next time she aided someone it was the injured Elijah Krum and Dominuc Ravenquist-Marino. Again when she found Ariel Greyback in the hospital wing in a sorry state. Again, when Chase escaped felix Barker, snf then when Jack found Thaor attempting suicide.
Because of her strange development of Empathy, it is not the pure ability in that all emotions are felt at anuy desired time. Her abilites come into play when there is someone of great distress that could be helped because of her. When someone close to her is full of terrible anguish, she feels as though her own livilihood has been destroyed, the happiness of those closest to is the only way she can get peace. Her ability to sense the emotions and read them, rather than being pulled to the source are just beginning to develop- she could sense Thaor's anguish the second she looked at him, though he managed to fake his way well.
For now, she does not know she had the ability nor does she understand its control. It affects her by drawing her towards tortured souls, those in pain, and being able to sense hidden emotions that could possibly be destructive. It's as if when she created Vito, the universe gave her the tools to make sure no one else made the same 'mistake' though she does not know she would call it that. Jacck best senses people closest to her, but the people closest to her are the ones who drew her in in the first place. If Jack feels your anguish, she often feels as later there is abond between you two and she can not help but try and secure your happiness if only for her sanity.
