Assistant Headmaster

[Daniel Masters]

Anita Tolkien, the current Headmaster of GEAA, isn't meant as a 'constant' character, moreso someone who steps in during important situations/plotlines, and controls things from the sidelines. It's also a way for me to instill certain admin controls In Character, or make certain announcements.

Because the Headmaster is very busy, she needs to hire an Assistant Headmaster. This person's job would basically be to deal more directly with students, parents, make rounds around campus, communicate with teachers, etc. This doesn't mean that the Headmaster will never take part in these things, but they are more commonly the assistant Headmaster's job.

Because this is an important job that requires responsibility and a certain degree of dedication to this forum, auditions will be held! Simply fill out the character template and post it HERE as a response to this post. Winning character will become the Assistant Headmaster.

The Assistant Headmaster will be new beginning this year, after the previous assistant headmaster retired. Any questions regarding the 'contest' or character, feel free to ask here or PM me!

Full Name: Heather Gray
Nickname(s): Ms. Gray
Age: 28
Height: 5'5
Build: a little more on the big side, but healthy
Race: American
Hair Color/Style: black hair, shoulder length, down
Eyes: strange gray color, almost clear
Distinguishing Features: glasses
Body Modifications: nope

Abilities: Heather can take the form of a ghost. At will, she can transform into a ghost-like body. She can move through walls and is pretty much invisible. Sunlight doesn't bother her, and she usually doens't enter rooms with closed doors unless she is supposed to. Anything she's holding will turn "ghost" with her, but only for a short time before they return to a solid and she has to drop them. When she is a ghost, she is a mix between a solid and a gas, it's a strange state.
Status: staff
Rank: Hopefully Assistand Headmistress
Strengths: controlling herself, remaining composed and calm,
Weaknesses: issuing punishments

Personality: Heather is calm and composed most of the time, and takes her job seriously. This doesn't mean she doesn't joke around, but she is often more solemn. She has more patience than some, but less than others. She is fairly thoughtful, and somewhat quick to act. She does what she thinks is right for the school, the staff and the students. Like any staff member, she cares for the well-being of the students. However, she dislikes issuing punishments. She will if she has to, but sometimes is reluctant to. If Heather has to punish a student, she will with the degree of punishment she thinks is necessary. She gets along well with other people, listening to their ideas before putting in her own. Among collegues or friends, she is more relaxed, joking around sometimes. She can be strict, and if there is a big problem, she'd take it to Headmistress Tolkien. She is good at following directions as long as giving them. She doesn't mind speaking in front of large crowds, but does get annoyed if she is interupted often. She is a big believer in following the rules, and she always dresses properly for work. She enjoys helping others with their problems or work, and her wish was to one day become a teacher or work in a school. She dislikes snobby brats and bullies, and knows how to stand up to them from personal experience. She tends not to take out her anger on other people, more keeping her emotions inside and only displaying them to those who she wants to know. She is respectful to others and is very neat and organized. She dislikes messes and works on things very hard to get them just right. She often gives her work 110%, and she enjoys herself. Heather has a knack for sensing when some one is lying. She doesn't overuse her powers to invade someone's privacy, and she is trusting to those who she thinks have earned it. She has very good control over both her power and her using it. She tends not to tell anyone about her power or her weaknesses, so she can seem mysterious at times. Heather can understand homesickness and tries to help new students or returning students that suffer from it. From her past experiences, she is careful to who she picks as her friends.
Relationships:
Relatives: parents and little brother, husband died
History: Heather Gray grew up in a nice little town. She went to a normal school and lived a normal life. Then her powers manifested. She freaked out her parents when they found her one day in their room, after having locked the door. She tried to explain what had happened, but her parents were strictly non-magical or non-supernatural believers. They told her that what she had said was lies and nonsense. They feared that whatever she was being told at school was making her too imaginative and that she didn't work hard enough. So she was moved to a boarding school. She left everything she knew behind. She was scared, nervous and angry at her parents at the same time. She knew no one at the new school, but quicky made friends. She was angry at her parents for sending her off somewhere just because she'd been telling the truth and they hadn't believed her. The other students at the boarding school quickly saw a scared girl that was alone. A prime target for bullying. The 'in crowd' hit first, the most popular girl, a brat, making fun of her somewhat shabby clothes. Her family hadn't been the richest or the most into buying nice clothes. Then the bullies. They bullied her for the same reasons and called her "four-eyes". She didn't fight back because she didn't know how to. One day, heading to class, she was talking with a partner from the past period. They were talking when the 'in crowd' started bullying Heather. This girl, Alicia was her name, stood up against them, and she soon became Heather's friend. She inspired self-confidence in Heather, and taught her how to stand up for herself. The next time the bullies made fun of her, she stood up to them, calling them names as well. They were shocked and quickly retreated, saying they were only joking. Alicia was so proud of her, and Heather was happy. Quickly more friends were made, but Alicia and Heather were always seen together. A year passed and Heather completely forgot about her powers. She kept in touch with her parents though. An accident happened. One day, she was walking back to her dorm alone, planning on doing homework. But she had been so tired, so she'd laid down to rest. She became a "ghost" again, but didn't know it until she had tried to lean against her wall and fell through. She was in Alicia's room. She saw Alicia and another girl, Mags, talking. They were talking about her. Heather listened in horror as they gossiped, and found out their true feelings for her. It turned out that Alicia was jealous of Heather, and was starting to hate her and compared her to the leader of the "in crowd". She accidentally solidified again, and Alicia was aghast. But she recovered quickly, demanding how Heather had gotten in the door when it had been locked. She lied quickly, but Alicia must have known she wasn't telling the truth. She called Heather a freak, and kicked her out. The two were never the same. Heather went through the rest of the year alone, hurt. She left without saying good-bye to Alicia, and never heard from her again. She returned to her parents, who had had another child. With all the problems at school, Heather had forgotten, and saw that in her absence the little boy had become her parents' top prioity. She was 15. She was angry with her life, and did things that she isn't proud of. She got in trouble with the police and one of the officers recognized that she was "gifted" as he put it. He sent her off to a school for the gifted, one other than GEAA. She learned about her powers, about how to control them. She followed the rules after her police trouble, and was hesitant about making friends. She failed the first few years, and was an adult by the time she graduated. She didn't return home, but instead went out to make a living. She went to college, majoring in education. She taught at a school, not one for the gifted, but a normal one. She found comfort in the public, around those who had no clue who she was or her power. Eventually she married, but never had kids. Her husband died in a car crash when she was 25. She heard of GEAA from a parent during a conference, and resigned from her teaching job. She left in hopes of finding the school. She did, and here she is.

Thanks for the two awesome applications! I'd kinda like to be able to just mesh the two characters together, but that's impossible XD so I've selected a winner!

Rhiannon Ranye Nyte! If you could post her as an application in the "Accepted Characters" board, that'd be great. Thanks for all the work you put into Heather Gray, Clary, feel free to use her as another staff member ^^
