SkillsTemperance here can feel and manipulate energy, changing it into various shapes and animals and/or using it to get soda. The phantasmal appearance of the manipulations gave her the idea to call them Ghosts. These Ghosts aren't very tangible (unless she wants them to be). Both Tempe and her manipulations can phase through solid objects(as long as they aren't too thick). Two feet is her limit, so far. It's really quite funny, sometimes she forgets to phase - faceplanting into walls. Continuous usage of her power can cause unstability in the manipulations and causes them to fade. Another limitation to her power is that she can only use her energy to create Ghosts most of the time. Reason being is that the manipulations are affected by emotion and using another's energy could effect the stability of the manipulation. Temperance is considerably fast and agile but tires easily. In fact, whenever she uses a certain amount of energy (or over exerts her self) she collapses. Temperance can play the cello very well and is an ok artist. Not the best fighter, she will often get distracted in the middle of a fight and end up loosing or coming close to it.

Likes Food (the girl eats like a horse), stalking people, playing-hide-and-go-tag, dancing without reason, animals, friends, snow, winter, collecting souls in jars, and her little brother and sister (she never sees them, for soon to be obvious reasons).

Dislikes Boredom, people going into her room, idiots who think they know everything and boredom

Personality Tempe is an outgoing, happy-go-lucky kinda girl. Very energetic when she hasn't used her ability in a while but tires easily. Occasionally she will get bored and kill a bunch of people but no one important dies... most of the time. Temperance is a total creeper but in a good way. It doesn't take much to gain her trust but it's easy to loose it. She does keep a healthy skepticism about her for safety reasons. If prevoked, Temperance may go on a delusional rampage. I wouldn't worry though as this rarely ever happens and only when people intrude on her room or do something unspeakable. Temperance is more likely to get butt hurt and go sulk until she forgets about it. It's still best to not get on her bad side, being as she is an extremely vindictive little arsonist and will send her Ghostly beasts to fetch your charred remains. Usually you can get off her shit list and calm her down by hugging or giving her some candy. . Tempe has a problem with impulse control, taunting people, and she can't focus on certain things for .... oh look! Shiny!


History Temperance was the third youngest child in a family of nine. Living with her parents and six siblings (three older brothers, one older sister, one younger sister, and one younger brother) until she was about 13. They were absolutley lovely and nothing but kind. They made sure she had nothing but the best of everything and that she never went without. As a result, she had a very bright disposition, a large collection of books, jarred butterflies, and several other luxuries. Tempe was musically inclined and excelled at the cello. As she got older she became more and more curious about death and killing. Truly a grim topic for one so young. This is when her ability began to surface. None, other than her, knew about it. One fine and dreery night, something just snapped inside her head and she went crazy. Her parents inquired as to what had gotten into their young daughter's mind and she responded "why, nothing mommy and daddy. I'm just fine". Her parents, still a little unsure, accepted her answer and turned to hurry out the door. They felt a little uneasy about the whole thing. Temperance had, at that exact moment, decided she would rather like to see the life leave their eyes forever and closed the door to her room with her Ghosts. "Mommy, daddy..." her voice was a little too sweet as the darkness closed in, "let's play a game." Tempe had her fun with them but it didn't last entirely too long. They survived only a few minutes before they bled out internally. "How weak" she spat. No matter. Temperance had anticipated such an event and had already formulated a plan. So she chopped them up, fed them to her siblings and threw the bones into the fire. Several days went by when Marque, the oldest brother, noticed that mom and dad were no where to be found. Marque searched everywhere; the attic, the floor boards, absolutely everywhere. Being that he was the oldest, he took responsibility until their long awaited return. Speculations began to fly Temperance's way when, some months later, charred bones with horns matching that of mother and father were found in the large victorian style fireplace. Temperance had always enjoyed starring into it's flames on lazy nights and days she couldn't sleep. The remains were found by the third oldest brother and the oldest sister, Drake and Penny. Their suspicions were confirmed when they looked into her room and saw their beloved mother and father's small blue souls in jars, that had previously been holding butterflies. When they saw that, Alex, the second oldest brother, developed a plan to kill her and protect everyone else. The frightened children wasted no time in trying to execute their deranged sister. She was playing with Alies and Percy at the time. A Ghost bunny had informed her of her older siblings intentions and impending arrival, "don't peek" she told the toddler twins as they came into the room. Sadly, their attempts at killing Temperance failed and ended with them getting massacred instead. Tempe captured their souls in small mason jars and labled them before she passed out. Not a sound was made in the process (that the twins could hear) and not a drop of blood got on her darling baby brother and sister. Upon waking, she took the kids and ran as far as she could. Temperance ran to a place where none had ever heard of her extremely affluent family. Knowing she was an unfit care taker for them, given her current state, Tempe found a home for them and left them behind with two little Ghost sparrows. Every few months or so, the birds come find her and inform her on how they are doing. After they were taken care of, our psychopathic MC went out and spent the next 103 lonely years reaping havoc and adding to her collection of jarred souls. She stumbled upon the academy recently figured "why the hell not?"

Additional Info
loves to say "I wlii never hurt you". Not sure if she means it or not.
Seeing as people going into her room caused her to slaughter her family, it's not surprising that she prefers that no one go in there. Her room would be one of the most scary places you'd ever see. If you enter without her permission, you are there to be fed to her creations. However, with permission to enter, it's super-fun with tons of books and things to mess with. It is weirdly elegant when the darkness and shadows aren't at play.
She keeps the souls she has collected in jars on her wall, right next to her books (some scattered on the floor). All are labeled with the names of those they belonged to.
Her eternal smile is a little disturbing.
generally wearing millitary type stealth outfits but it's is not uncommon to see her in something a little more casual (pants, dresses, T-shirts, etc...).
Her power alows her to phase through walls (on occasion), make tangible figures, and retrieve intel/souls/sodas/candy. Temperance is able to phase because she uses the energy to alter her structure and slide between the molecules that mak them up.
The shade of her maipulations changes from white to gray depending on her mood. The more intense the emotion, the darker the shade.
Ghosts are her favorite things to create. Though, she can often be seen making swirls and complex interlocking spirals to amuse herself.
She only ever uses her own energy to make her manipulations because it is far too much work to use other people's energy to do so. This drains her energy and is why she gets tired so easily.
Temperance gets tired extremely easily. I CAN NOT REPEAT THIS ENOUGH. Tempe won't pass out - out of no where, although it does happen after a good game of "catch and kill" or over usage of her power.
Not too good of a fighter.
