Tall,Dark,and lithe, Evangeline would be the epitome of a classical beauty if it wasn't for the fact that the image would be shattered as soon as she started barking like a soldier. Standing Five foot Nine and built like an MMA fighter she doesn't cut an imposing figure until she has actually knocked someone flat on their ass. She carries herself just like anyone else who spent their developmental years having drill and ceremony jackhammered into her head. after her death she now tends to clear clothing that do not make her look out of place. Simple hoodies boots and pants, yet even then if someone pays close attention to her they'll find someone who doesn't look comfortable.A slight twitch of her trigger finger, A long gaze across the horizon as she's doing work. it almost seems like she is constantly expecting to come under fire. | |||||||||

Her personality has changed heavily since her death, tending to handle herself curtly when she finds herself having to interact with people as a whole. Although when it comes to how she handles herself in a self destructive manor turning to drink to try and handle the pain of what happened to her in late 1989. it will take someone prying through layers of mental walls she's put up to get to the woman that she used to be. | |||||||||
Abilities | |||||||||
➤ overall | |||||||||
Shadow Manipulation -- (Basic)The more mystical powers belonging to a wraith like making shadow bullets and shields out of the shadows around her is her one Defiant weak point, as when it comes to fighting she is much more used , and frankly more inclined to use real steel weapons. The closest she’s gotten to controlling this is being able to force a shadow bullet down the barrel of an empty gun Shadow Teleportation -- (Basic) As with her shadow manipulation abilities, this form of transportation is something that she has only really been able to use after large amounts of patience and concentration, two traits she doesn't put much stock into. Soul Sensory -- (Natural) Being able to see a persons soul in grey-scale really caught Evangeline off guard the most and the innate knowledge of whether or not some was naturally good or evil tends to make her a bit of cynic about knowing who to trust Enhanced Strength-- (knowledgeable) While she took too her enhanced physicals like a duck to water she is definantly used to the strength of her old human body, as such this can leads to accidents where she breaks thing by mistake due to just being far stronger than she used to be. Enhanced speed -- (knowledgeable)As with her strength, she can used her increased speed to her advantage, yet not really being used to the speed she can now easily make, she has found herself ass over teakettle wrapped up in bushes or fences during her morning ruck because she took a turn too fast. Enhanced Dexterity -- (Natural) when it came to her increased agility and dexterity This increase came the most natural to her because it was the skill-set she was most inclined to using when it came to marksmanship and maintaining weapons and the like. | |||||||||

Born on a rainy Halloween night to a retired army captain and an heiress of of an New orleans Old money family. Evangeline was raised as a childto be a polite soceity woman like her mother yet that temperament didnt last all that long. when she was young she became enamoured with stories of bravery and soldiering from her fathers retired army buddies who were all more than willing to see the little girl smile in wonderment. She made it her life's duty to be a soldier like her father. joining her high school's J.R.O.T. C program before Enlisting Early in 1984. Although much to her chagrin she was forced into a noncombat supporting roll as an assistant weapons logistic specialist although she was fully capable of fuffiling the role of a special forces weapons sergeant. Evangeline loved her time in the military, quickly rising through the ranks and caring for her fellow soldier. Getting her first taste of a combat zone during the 1989 invasion of panama although not offically a "combatant" she did find herself involved in her first few firefights as 82nd airborne division was deployed in force. After the end of this quick conflict the tides of her life were changing. After making Sergeant political ties between the us and Iraq started to go down the drain and she seized her chance for a transfer to to a frontline combat unit. Joining the 504th PIR as a squad sergeant, Evangiline and her squad were detached to rendezvous with a PMC company that was willing to trade information on Iraqi troop movements and military secrets in exchange For certain..."imunities" Evangeline sighed softly as she kept her eyes peeled on the Kuwaiti road A pink wad of gum keeping her nervous energy in check as she gripped the wheel of the humvee."Sarge what the hell kind of callsign is van owens" she snuck a look back at one of the privates before turning her attention back to the road " the hell am i supposed to knw davies? do I look like his mother?" this caused the privates to dissolve into arguments and bickering. Evangeline heard a slight whistling noise that caused her ears to twitch, barely audible above the sound of her convoys engines. Suddenly the Road in front of her erupted in a massive burst of fire and rubble. A long string of french cajun swear came from her throat as she tried to swerve out of the way of the incoming mortar fire. Her heart was in her throat as she started to yell back at her radio man but before she could get anything out an explosion rocked the humvee and suddenly blackness enveloped her conciousness. Evangeline woke to someone dragging her behind the burning wreckage of the humvee as members of her squad yelled over the sounds of incoming fire." Who the fuck is shooting at us!Those aint Iraqi's!" Over there! Aim Lower to the left!!" 'Somebody get the SAW up and running!" DAVIES HAD THE GODDAMN BELTS!' "Where the hell is davies!" " HE DIDNT MAKE IT OUT OF THE HUMMER!' Cover! Reloading!!" Evangiline grabbed at the hand holding her plate carrier and looked up as they were drug into position " I'm Up! I'm Up!" she grabbed her sidearm and scrambled against the vehicle with the rest of her squad. She took a deep breath before she leaned around the Bumper and fired three shoots towards the general direction of the incoming fire " Squad sound off! Whats the sitrep!!" her corporal answered " The rest of the convoy is ahead of us about 200 yards! they made it through the arty better than we did, they've got two of the HMG's o the humvee's up and running from the looks of it! there was a distant explosion as he looked over and then grimly returned"make that one... whoever these fuckers are they REALLY want our fucking asses" One of the younger privates muttered darkly as he huddled behind the wheel well of the humvee "jesus christ i think that was the LT's Hummer..." the sounds of small arms fire was getting closer and closer and the corporal stood up to return fire, as Evangeline looked down to grab another magazine for her pistol she saw her corporal's body slam into the sand his hands gripping his throat as he kicked and gurgled trying vainly to draw breath. she holstered her 1911 and grabbed at the combat medical kit in her bag, pulling guaze out and shoving it down on the poor man's throat trying to stop his bleeding" Fraiser's Hit!! WE CANNOT STAY HERE!" she barked over at one of the privates only to see her support gunner flip the SAW onto the hood of the Humvee and start to let out a short burst before the top half of the man just explodes in a red mist, showering everyone next to him in gore. the last member of her squad started panicking 'S-sarge i cant die like this i cant die like this!" her threw his rifle down and sprinted out from cover with his hands raised before tracer round cut him down." SHIT!" Evangeline growled and looked down at her blood covered hands, she hadn't noticed that the corporal had stopped moving, his eyes glazed over. She reached over and grabbed the M16 that the private had thrown down she scrambled up against the metal of her cover as she pulled a smoke grenade off her rig and pulled the pin, chucking it down away from her and counting under her breath waiting for the smoke to start to billow. She needed to make it over to the rest of the convoy. She took a deep breath and sprinted into the smoke, taken off guard as something slammed into her chest, she fell backwards on her back clutching at her plate carrier she wheezed heavily as the smoke billowed out around her. She kicked and tried to roll herself over clawing at the sands to try and get back to her feet. soon the smoke grenade pittered out and she flopped back onto her back breathing heavily 'fucking....gotta move" her vision blanked softly for a moment and the gunshots suddenly felt like they stopped, there were voices coming close to her. Evangeline raised her hand up and hoped they were friendly 'H-help!' she called out , her voice thick and hoarse "Me....medic!!" she started coughing as she tried to sit up, men in dark suits were approaching her position, those weren't friendlies. she grabbed at her pistol and fired off a few round with her shaking hands before the slide locked back panic crossed her eyes as she kept trying to crawl back away but she just wasn't fast enough. one of the men grabbed her arm and pinned it before a second grabbed her other arm and lifted her up, dragging her roughly towards somewhere else, the pain greyed her vision. Evangeline stirred softly as a hand gently slapped at her face 'Come on now girly dont die on me before we have our little chat." she rolled her eyes in pain as she groaned focusing softly on the tall man in dark clothes " I do believe I'm quite lucky to have not killed you outright Sergeant Tembo, I believe I may have to pay your mother a visit." She glowered through the pain confused by his words"I... won't let you get away with this... you bastard" she winced in pain trying to grab at the three wounds in her lower chest. "now my dear you may remember me from your father's funeral, and frankly it's a shame we had to come on the ends of each others guns...eh that is what happens during war" he smiled and pulled a large handgun out of a holster cocking it slowly by racking the slide." I do say i will visit your mother....she's going to need a shoulder to cry on planning your funeral." Evangeline started growling shaking and trying to pull from the two men holding her in a kneeling position.She slammed her elbow into ther crotch of the one on her left, grabbing his side arm and pumping two shots into the man on her left before she swung around towards the man that had giving her a speech. She found herself staring down the bore of the pistol "auf wiedersehen" He cocked the hammer and smiled "I'll get you you son of a" ---BANG!! | |||||||||
