...basic character information
Birth Name: Ennea Lackey
Nickname
Gender: Female]
Age: Seventeen
Grade: 11
Birth date: December 8
Program: [Bachelor of Arts]
Major: Photography
Major Explanation: Every since she was little, Ennea has noticed things that others don’t, the slight twitch of a mouth when someone lies, or a change in the voice. Because of this, she found it hard to totally get along with others her age. Although always friendly, she is timid in nature and finds it hard to express herself with others. This is where her photography comes in. not only does it service as an outlet for MOST of her insecerdes, but it also serves as a way to express her fillings and share what she thinks is beautiful with others.Animal Identity:
...personality
Likes:(at least 10)
- Fruit and Veggies (Ennea loves fruits and veggies, mostly because she can’t stand the thought of eating any kind of meat or flesh.)
- Quiet (Loves the peace of it. Also because she doesn’t like loud noises)
- Taking Pictures (There is nothing she loves more then to take a picture and know that she can now share the beauty that she saw with others and knowing that she will be able to see that beauty again and again..
- Family and Friends (Knowing that she is not alone in this world and has others to turn to is a feeling that she craves more then anything)
- People watching (Watching others, seeing them be themselves, not trying to be something they aren’t)
- Small spaces (alone in a small space, makes her feel safe as she enjoys the quiet, the freedom)
- Nature (her first love, and her first friend, something that never lied to her.)
- Kindness (She finds it refreshing)
- Small animals (As a little girl, she loved small animals, like mice, cats and rabbits, feeling as if they were kindred spirits. Later she learned why.)
- Anything soft (She never understood why, but she loves soft blankets, clothes and stuffed toys.)
- Stuffed animals (Not real stuffed animals, but teddy bears and things of the sort. Besides nature, these were her first friends.
Dislikes: (at least 10)
- Meat (the thought of eating what some poor animal had to die to give makes her horribly ill)
- Loud noise (Loud noises makes her panic and want to run. Being a quiet child and used to near silent, it also hurts her ears.)
- Fur coats (knowing that an animal was killed and skinned breaks her heart)
- Rudeness (Why be rude? It never solves anything…)
- Small spaces with someone else (She is happy alone in a small space, but panics when someone else is there.)
- Being trapped (to be locked in a cage or in a space with no way out in a time of panic for Ennea.)
- Fire (Something that can destroy in so little time, watching as the nature she loves so much is burned to ash, it breaks her heart)
- Losing Family or a friend (Her tyes to those she loves are very strong, and when one or more is lost, it leaves a hole in her heart that takes a very long time to fill.)
- Death (Knowing that you will never see that person again, never see them smile… it is a horrible feeling)
- Fighting (Fighting doesn’t solve much. What are we, animals? …. Don’t answer that.)
- Needles.... (Have you ever met someone that does?)
Fears: (At least 3)
- Rejection (Because of what happened after she shifted, the thought of being rejected haunts her in everything she does.)
- Heights/Flying (being away from the ground, with God knows how many stories between you and the ground? Terrifying)

Strengths: (At least 3)
- Kindness (Being so nice and kind, she draws others to her and makes them want to be her friend, which fills her need to have others to turn too.)
- Alert/ Able to Notice (Noticing and understanding helps her in school, and in social circles)
- Energy (With her bubbling energy and eagerness, coupled by her klutziness, makes her able to bring a smiled to someone’s face.)
Weaknesses: (At least 3)
- Her Eagerness to Please (because she doesn’t want to be rejected, she tries to make it so that she isn’t, that no one can hate her for who she is. This often can get her into trouble.)
- Over Noticing Things (She has a bad habit of over observing, which makes her paranoid.
- Paranoid (Makes her question others, giving her a trust issue.)
Overall: [400 words minimum]
Ennea Lackey is a sweet and loving girl that takes the form of a rabbit. She is happy and over eager, trying to always make friends with those around her. In her effort to make friends, she forces her paranoid to the back burner, where it leaks out and whispers doubts in her ear, making her question what she knows about her friends. Timid by default, she isn't very outgoing, but is over eager to please others, in the hopes that they won't reject her. When things get to stressful, she turns to nature and photography as an outlet. Like a rabbit though, if she feels cornered with no way out, she will fight. (She learned most of her so called "fighting skills" from too many old movies. her grandma loved those.)
Although she is social, Ennea continues to be timid, never seeking to be the center of attention, but more of a follower, to be accepted. Ennea is fine with being alone at times, but only when she knows that she can go to someone and be with someone if she gets scared. What she truly needs is someone to always be there for her, never letting her fear that she will be alone.
Surprisingly, even though she takes the form of a rabbit, she is by no means, quick or "graceful". More times then not you will find her on her knees in the dirt, smiling and laughing at herself. She mostly does this has cover up to hid her embarassment.
After being rejected by her parents for what she is, she was sent to live was her grandmother, a former hippie that welcomed her with open arms. living with this woman, she grew to like love beads and bell bottom jean, along with eating veggies and furits and shuning things that harmed animals.
Wether it is from being a rabbit, or just how she is, Family is very important to Ennea. From when she was a child with her own family, to when she moved to her grandmothers, she has always had family around her. one of her biggest dreams is to have a family of her own. Ennea hopes that maybe at this school, she will mean her soul mate. (and she hopes he's not a wolf or somthing worst) As for having kids.... Ennea really hopes that she isn't too much like her rabbit counter part. She hopes to have four, maybe 5 kids, tops.

Celebrity Play By: Amanda Bynes
Appearance: [400 words minimum]
Ennea Lackey has long brown hair that shines with silvery golden highlights in the sun and comes to her shoulders. Sometimes if she's feeling dareing, she will string little beads in it like her grandmother taught her. Stangely, this is the only part of her that stays the same as a rabbit or human, though it does change in lengh. Her eyes are a nice blueish siver that some to tinkle when she smiles, and they change to brown when she turns into a rabbit, much to her surprise. She is about 5’8” ft tall, with a slender graceful build.She has a birth mark on the back of her thigh in the rough shape of a heart. This birthmark changes into a little heart shaped white spot on her back leg in rabbit form. Because she is a veggie and fruit eater, she only weights around 130lbs. Being a "rabbit", she does have quite a bit of restless energy and normally likes to run that off in the early mornings. She does not have any tattoos or piercing (She dislikes needles). When she wears make up (something she doesn't do often), it is always light and compliments what she has naturally, so mostly just a pale pink blush and light lip gloss. She normally wears soft colorful sweaters with bell bottom jeans or long skirts. If it is hot out, she will trade her sweater for a palely colorful t-shirt. If it is a formal event, she wears a light tan skirt that her grandma bought for her, coupled with a cream or light colored blouse. When she goes for her morning runs, she wears a faded blue sweat suit, something that belonged to her grandmother in her prime. it has sexy bedazzled on the butt, but if you ask her about it, she'll only blush and shake her head.All these items are normaly made with cotton or some other natraul compound. Although it is unlikely, Ennea always checks the tag for anything that might have come from an animal (besides wool). As for when she wheres make up, she refuses to use or buy anything that was tested on some poor animal.
For jewelary, she lieks to wear some colorful beads around her neck.These are also from her grandma. Back then known as love beads. (yes, her grandma was a hippie and it shows in her grandaughter too)
In her animal form, she is little more then 12lbs, with brown and silverish fur over her whole body, exact for her heart mark. Her ears stand straight up like a jackrabbit. She looks like a common brown hare.

...history
Parents: Josh and Maria Lackey
Siblings: none, is an only child.
[400 words minimum]
Ennea grew up in the northwest of the States, surrounded by trees and green earth. As a little girl, her parents would take their only daughter onto picnics in the forest around their home. Her father would carry her and swing her around as she laughed, feeling safe in his arms, even with the fear of heights. Though she was an only child, she was never lonely, from her stuffed animals, to her friends at school. Her family was quite large, with many aunts and uncles, bringing with them loads of cousins to play with. Everyone was close, a loving and closely knitted family…. Until the day she will never forget… the year she turned 13.
Ennea sat in the kitchen, watching her mother stir some veggie soup. She had stayed home that week from school, because she thought she was coming down with the flu. Her body ached, every joint tender to the touch, as if it was bruised. She felt tired, and when she did sleep, her dreams were full of terror, of being chased and paniced, wondering if every moment was going to be her last.
She would scream in her sleep, until one of her parents woke her. It got to the point that they had to give her sleeping pills to help her sleep. But for the last few night, she hadn’t needed them. Now she was just in pain. But pain she could handle, as long as she had her parents.
Her mother stirred the soup, then smiled at her. Ennea smiled back. But as her mother turned back, Ennea’s stomach clutched. She stood, thinking she was going to have to make another run to the bathroom, when another pain shot down her spine. She doubled over, her body shaking uncontrollably. In the distance, she heard her mother scream her name as she dropped to her knees. Her stomach gave another heave.
The burning pain was spreading through her limbs. She heard bones snapping and whimpered. Tears blurred her eyes as everything started to get smaller. Her little body burned like someone had dropped her into a bonfire. She cried for her mom, thinking she was going to die. She closed her eyes and panted, curling her hands into fists. As the minutes ticked by, feeling like years, Ennea prayed for death.
Then just as suddenly as it began, the pain, the cracking… it all stopped. Ennea struggled to catch her breath as she very slowly opened her eyes. Everything around her was huge, from the counter and stools, to the open door on her right. At first, she thought she was just laying on the floor, understandable since that pain. But everything looked…. Strange. Wider and more of it somehow. It was then that she had heard the scream.
Jerking her head up, she stared in terror as her mother grabbed a broom and came at her with it. She tried to stand, but her legs wouldn’t work. She started to push off with her hands when she saw the furry paws. In that hesitation moment, her mother hit her with the broom, screamed at her, calling her a demon child. She flew back, rolling across the kitchen floor into a corner.
Ennea watched as her father grabbed her mother from behind, holding her, telling her to calm herself. Then he looked at Ennea. When she saw the pain and sorrow in his eyes, aimed at her, at what she had become, she ran.
Making a beeline for the open door, she hopped and bounced down the hallway, her mothers sobs haunted her in their wake. She ran to her room and wiggled under her bed, joining the dust bunnies and lost dolls until the change came again, turning her back.
That night, her father explained everything to her, about how her grandma and a few uncles had the ability to change their form into an animal. He had hoped that Ennea had never gotten the gene, so he had never told her mother about it. He said his was sorry and hugged her.
The next morning, Ennea was forced to pack her things. Her mother wouldn’t even look at her as she waited in the living room for her grandma to come get her. In that one day, she was rejected from her parents, lost their love. The close ties she had had with her family snapped as little by little, all of her family, save her grandma, shunned her for what she was.
...connecting human to animal
[One Paragraph Minimum (Can be point form)]
Ennea has the same watchfulness as her animal counterpart along with the same taste of food. Her family ties can easily be seen like that of a family in a burrow. A love of small dark places and the fear of being trapped are also that of a rabbit. Between her energy and gentle nature, there is a side of her that will bite if threatened, but this doesn’t come out unless in dire need. Her first instinct is to flight, not fight. FAQ's.

Ennea gripped her bag tightly, staring at the blinking lights of the terminal. Her heart pounded in her chest at the thought of getting on that plane, but she didn’t really have a choice. Grandma Lackey had passed away just a week ago, and no one else in the family had wanted anything to do with her. Not eve her own parents.
Ennea blinked back tears and took a step forward. It was ok. She would be fine. Plane had been flying for how many years now? That was enough time to get it down. Nothing would do wrong, and then she would be at this…. School her grandma had talked about.
Her heart leaped in her chest again at the thought of her grandmother. The only person that had ever truly loved her for who she was…. And now she was gone.
Taking a few more steps, Ennea tried to get up the courage to get on that plane. Her heart pounded, blood rushed past her ears, blocking out everything but he but of beat her heart. What if something went wrong? And the plane crashed? She shook her head and lifted her chin. “Nothing is going to happen… don’t be a jack rabbit!”
Tightening her hands around her carry on bag, she stepped through the terminal and down the hall to board the plane. She took one last look at the exit. She couldn’t turn back now. There wasn’t anything for her there. Not anymore. Biting her lip and fighting tears, she stepped onto the plane. Crowds of people hovered in the small space, trying to find their seats or loved ones. Ennea thought she was going to pass out. Glancing at her ticket, she found her seat, thanking God that it was by the aslie. She sat down, letting ehr carry on bag rest on her knees. Slowly she closed ehr eyes and tried to get a grip.
"Excuse me... miss?" Ennea opened her eyes and glanced at the kind looking old lady in fround of her. Ennea's eyes stung with tears. the woman reminded her of her grandma. "I think that there is my seat.. could you be a dear and shift your knees? These old bones arent what they used to be." Ennea smiled and nodded, shifing and wiggling to let her through. After a few more minutes, the plane took off. Ennea griped the sides of her chair and shut her eyes. The old woman reached out and took her hand. "there, there child. it'll be ok." Ennea glanced at her and smiled, calming down. After that they talked about life and the woman's grandchildren she was going to see. Thanks to that woman, Ennea made it through the plan flight that would carried her to her new school, and her new life. [/size]
