Me in a Nutshell
Characters full name: Melissa Tredway
Nicknames: Aphrodite
Age & birthdate: 18//September 9th
Gender: Female
Affiliation: New Recruit
Sexuality: Bisexual
Face Claim: Blake Lively
How I look Now
Hair: Blonde, halfway down her back
Eyes: Blue-Grey
Look Description Melissa is what you'd call your American beauty: blonde hair, smoky blue-grey eyes and a nice facial structure. She stands at 6'1. Now, this isn't to say she doesn't have her flaws, everyone does. One of them is a large birthmark on the start of her shoulderblade that she covers with makeup, and her lips aren't actually as full as they appear, helped by lip plumping makeup.
Done it Myself: None
It just Happened: A birthmark on her shoulder
More in Depth?
Personality:
When something catches her attention, she completely zones into it. Tunnel vision, if you will. Also, she's like that with commitment to anyone. That is, if she had someone to commit to. There's a loyalty in her that could scarcely be matched by most other people. So, if you manage to get Melissa as a friend, she's there for a very, very long time.
Her powers over others has given her a very biased outlook on life, and she thinks that she is the center of everyone's attention, and that she always gets what she wants. If she doesn't, then she'll do anything she can to get it, or use anyone she can to get to it.
She's very emotional, her emotion or feeling at the time usually driving everything she does. While it's not hard to get Melissa to like you, it's not hard to get her to hate you either. Someone she doesn't approve of wil automatically be scoffed or looked down at, but if the person manages to convert her views on them, she'll deeply respect them.
Mom’s name: Kendra Avens
Dad’s name: John Tredway
Siblings names: None
Other important relatives: None
What I can Do and Can't
Powers: Melissa has the ability to control her pheromone levels, and the pheromone levels of others, able to direct the feeling of lust on her or another person’s. She can also rise two people’s pheromones and manipulate them to attract the other person. Her ability is psionic control, and she can only control the pheromones of two people at a time. She can make someone immensely attracted to her, or to another person, depending on how she does it.
Abilities: During her time with Will, the trucker who picked her up, she learned how to pick locks to car doors and other things.
Weaknesses: While she is controlling someone else’s pheromones, she cannot control her own, and they would rise and fall naturally. While she can control other people’s, her power, when not being used by her, only makes the pheromone levels of anyone in a ten foot radius of her rise. When controlling a specific person's, she becomes completely caught up with that person(s) and she is vulnerable to both mental and physical attacks during those times, as well as any other time.
What Happened to Me
Mellissa was born, as anyone is, to a set of loving parents named Kendra Avens and John Tredway, an unmarried couple in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Like a lot of young couples, they thought a baby would tighten their bond, as they were already struggling with living together. It didn’t and each of them consumed themselves in their work, often leaving Melissa alone.
When they were home however, John and Kendra often fought each other, and the fights would get violent, John hitting Kendra and Kendra hitting back, and poor Melissa being left in the crossfire. For a while, the fighting stopped, and peace blossomed for a few years. The times were short lived, however, and John and Kendra went their separate lives, John remarrying and Melissa, seven at the time, splitting her time between them.
At the age of sixteen, Melissa’s powers manifested at her first prom. She’d been planning on going with a boy who’d been crushing on her for a while. He was supposed to pick her up, but he ditched and in anger, she walked a mile to the school, and confronted him about it. Strangely, he was touching her and trying to get as much contact as he could. At first, she thought it was strange, but found that everyone around her was doing the same, touching each other and just acting outright…horny.
The next day, people at school dubbed her Aphrodite because of the prom incident, and during her senior year, Melissa became more and more rebellious, starting fights at school. She was eventually expelled, and, instead of going back home, she hopped in a trucker’s truck after convincing him to give her a ride. She and the trucker eventually developed a romantic relationship, but once they arrived in New York, the trucker kicked her out after she revealed she was a mutant.
Remembering her old nickname, Melissa took up the name Aphrodite, and sought out help in the form of the Institute.

writing sample:
[/quote]She couldn't believe it. Will had kicked her out. After all that time, after everything she'd shared with him, Will had kicked her out.
She angrily kicked at a soda can on the sidewalk in front of her, a few random tears springing up and falling out of her eyes. "I don't need him, I'll get the fuck along without him." she said, remembering a distant memory from back in Tulsa: of when she'd first been given her nickname.
Smiling, she started walking with a saunter in her step, and continued on the journey, not knowing where else it would take her.
