Personality & Attitude:

Alexa is what you call a normal Hispanic teenager somewhat, yeah right. Alexa is what you call a cool teenager on the outside but a troubled teen on the inside. She can't stand her mother for lying about who her real father was. She's pretty much an all around. She likes have to fun and go to parties and drink when she not supposed to. She doesn't like following the rules and has a real problem with being told what to do. But won't push it too far as to where she gets kicked out of school. She likes to meet people and go have fun, she's pretty much cool on the outside.

She loves to shop and have fun with girls, mostly girls who can speak Spanish. Which is a native language which she speaks most of the time. She loves to speak Spanish on purpose that way nobody can understand her. She loves to do that. She rarely uses her powers at all, only when she gets pissed off or when she wants to win a bet that includes money or anything important in her mind. Otherwise you could call Alexa a safe child who doesn't use her powers at all.

But on the inside Alexa is troubled by the fact that she hates her family, her mom, step dad, and her two sisters. Dealing with depression somewhat and short tempers. She does everything in her power to make sure she doesn't feel hurt or sad, or that anyone else doesn't hurt at all. She can't stand meeting stuck up people who treat others badly because it reminds her of how her family treated her. She will stand up for anyone who is treated badly and isn't scared to go up against a guy.

Background & History:

Alexa Castro was born and raised in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, being the 3rd child born in her family of girls. She lived a hard life in Philadelphia trying not to get into fights. She lived with her mom and 2 sisters, and her step dad at the time thought was her real dad. She had a good life or so she thought. She grew up having both of her parents do their best to give her and her sisters the best life they could. Even thought Alexa so called live a good life with her family deep down inside she was living in hell. She was constantly made fun of by her siblings because she looked different from them. Seeing how Alexa took the traits of looking Hispanic and somewhat already knowing Spanish all too well. And the fact that she didn't look anything like her older sisters, or her so called dad. She had to constantly hear it as a little girl going to day care, and around the neighborhood from people. Although Alexa was young she never really paid much attention to what was said to her. That is until she got older. When she started Elementary school, with her sisters. They always seem to pick on her in school with their friends. They would try and make comments in Spanish, even when their Spanish was bad. But it didn't stop there. She was always left out of family activities. When her parents went to go shopping for clothes, Alexa never went with them. Her sisters went with their dad but she had to stay home with her mom. Alexa got the feeling that her dad didn't love her. And she hated him for that; she hated her sisters and family for everything.

When Alexa turned the age 13 years old. She developed her powers. She was sitting on the front step with her best friend Dana. They were just talking and making jokes. When her sisters were coming home from the store. Alexa had asked them why they didn't get her a soda. And Regina laughed and dropped an open bottle of soda on her. It splashed all over her shirt. Alexa was shocked and pissed at the same time. She watched as her sister walked into the house laughing. She wanted to hit her sister so badly, but couldn't. She tried to calm down but couldn't. She kept wishing her sister would just leave her alone. A few minutes later her sister came back out, with Ameria and they were going somewhere. Regina laughed at Alexa again and made a comment about her shirt. Alexa just glared at her wishing the soda would burst open and mess up her perfect little outfit. She just kept wishing it would over and over again. That is until she heard Regina scream as the bottle of soda busted open spraying all over her clothes in front of everyone. It didn't take her long to realize she was different from her sisters in every single way.

After that incident her sisters made it even worse on Alexa, along with her dad. They blamed everything on her when things disappeared in the house. And her dad automatically believes them. And Alexa would always get grounded. She never said a thing to them at all; she let them get away with it. Alexa got even more frustrated and started using her powers somewhat to take out her anger on them. She would make her sisters trip every chance they got, and messing them up when they did things with friends. It was her way of taking her anger out. And it made her feel better because she knew she wasn't like them. One day Alexa went to her mom one day and complained to her. About what was going on? They ended getting into an argument about why she had these powers. Like they usually did, and her mother acted like she was crazy. But for some reason her mom got real angry at her and yelled her that Darryl wasn't her father. Alexa stormed out of the house, because she knew for some reason Darryl wasn't her father. Alexa's mother kept trying to apologize and say she was upset. But Alexa didn't care. From that day on Alexa kind of stayed away from her family, constantly spending the night at her friend’s house. And her family never complained about her being there. It was like they were happy that she wasn't there.

When Alexa was 16 years old 2 months before she turned 17 years old. A man came to the house when Alexa was walking home from school with her best friend. He was standing outside leaning against the car, when she got there. For some reason she figured she knew him but she had never met him. He had asked for her mother when she was going to the door. Alexa had asked him how he knew her mother. And he told her that they were old friends. And Alexa told him that he would have to wait, inside with her and Dana. A little while later her mom came home with her dad shocked that her was there. It wasn't until later that she found out that the man name Martin was her actual father. Alexa knew deep down inside that Darryl wasn't her father when they both said it to her. But Alexa didn't want to believe it at all that is until her father used his powers and made the necklace she had float out of her hand and land in his hand. Alexa was shocked about his powers, because she thought she was the only one who had this power. So Alexa, her mom, Darryl and martin, sat down to talk about what was going on with Alexa. Alexa had asked if Dana could hear because Dana was the only one of her friends who knew about her powers. Alexa found out that her dad was a part of a coven/covenant of witches from Spain. Her father had met her mom in New York City before she was born. It was while her mom and Darryl were separated. He had said he would have visited her in Philadelphia but her mother had left soon after. He had no idea that her mother had gotten pregnant by him; he knew nothing about her at all. Only that he felt when Alexa had received her powers when she had turned 13. Her mother threw a fit saying she didn't want her child to have anything to do with the covens and witches and the magic. This is why she never mentions him to Alexa at all.

Alexa was upset that her mother had lied to this whole time. And the fact that she knew about her powers and never told her. All of the parents got into an argument about where Alexa was going to go. Unfortunately Alexa stepped in, it was up to her what she wanted to do, and she chose to go with her real father to Ipswich Massachusetts. She didn't want to live their anymore, in a house full of nonstop chaos and it was over her. She wanted to leave but didn't want to leave her friend Dana behind. But her father had told her she would be safer with him then living here with her mom. Alexa had moved to Ipswich to live with her father and attend Spenser academy, where she met a group of friends and also found others like herself. She attended school threw parties and even got herself a crush, and made some of her own friends, her best friend Delaney, she was shy and timid when she met her others friends. She was not use to it all. But she kind of came out of her shy spell and made new friends; go out into parties, even learned about motorcycles. She spent the year enjoying school, and having fun living in her new home. She spent the summer of her junior year volunteering at camp where weird things occurred there, and spent the rest of her summer enjoying it. Now she is going into her senior year, preparing for college after she graduates and preparing for the best in her senior year with her best friend staying with her for the year.

Sample RP:

yikes it was senior year for alexa and she had to do a lot. She was already thinking about college and even more things. But what was dawning on her was her 18th birthday was approaching, and from what her father had told her, her powers would become stronger. She had not used since the beginning of summer at camp when she needed to shut max up from barking. She was worried what it would be like. Would it be painful? What would happen afterwards? She knew the consequences of using too much when you ascend on your birthday in all but it was all too scary for her. On top of that it was going to happen around the time when school started in October. She was even more nervous now thinking about it too much. She took a deep breath as she stood in her kitchen; she walked to the fridge and grabbed a bowl of grapes.

She closed the fridge and walked out the kitchen and into her personal room. She walked inside and saw max and Dana sitting there playing. Her best friend would was flown all the way from Philadelphia so she could attend school here. Her dad and done all the business issues and stuff and even paid for her to fly over first class. She was glad her best friend was here. She jumped over the couch and laid down grabbing the remote. She set the grapes down and tossed one into her mouth. She sighed as she changed the channel to watch a movie. She looked over at max that was happily playing with Dana trying to get his chew toy out of her hand. It made Lexa chuckle a bit as she turned her attention back to the television. She really needed to stop thinking about it for now.

She stared at the television, she remembered her dad asking if she wanted a party on her birthday, but she is not so sure anymore. Would she be able to handle the ascension and her birthday at the same time? Stuff like this could drive any girl crazy; she did not know how Caleb and the guys deal with it. She would just have to wait and see.
