Alyse Mirabelle's Civil Authority ApplicationOOC Name: Lord SirTai
IC Character Name: Alyse Mirabelle
1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority and what lead your character to do so. My character was raised in a calculist and cold way, carefully planned by her parents. They taught her, the hard way, how to face her problems and control her emotions.
That has lead my character to an unfortunate situation, on which a softer judgement and a fear-free upbringing could've avoided. She worked in the police force, and in her last emergency call, those distinctions made her kill her partner.
Now she seeks for a safe place/person, someone strong enough to hold her, someone smart enough to understand her, and she has experience with civilian protection, since she was a police officer, so she thinks that's her place to be.
2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy) Cold, Calculist, raised in a brutal family enviroment by her parents, Alyse was made what she is now, a quick-thinking, determined woman that's been through hell and realised she is what her parents made her be, a monster.
3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character. I expect it to be, for me, a very good learning experience, that will most likely improve my RPing skills in a unique way, by giving me the opportunity to RP with very good quality people, on the most different situations. And to my character, she'll hopefully find what she's looking for, somewhere she'll find someone strong enough to supervise her, and not let her loose on the world, because that constantly haunts her, that feeling. And she thinks that's her place to be, since all she knows is to work with civilian protection/law, a place where her set of skills are fit for.
4) Please provide a detailed back-story from an out-of-character perspective on your applying character. This section must be detailed and consist of a minimum of 300 words. To hear about Alyse, you must first understand something about her parents, Brian and Carol, and their lives.
Brian was born in 1970, in Denmark, he was really intelligent but lived a hard life as a teenager. See, he was very lonely, and that changed him in many ways. He didn't grow as a normal teenager, and that gave him a few powers.
First power was being able to stop his emotions and simply doesn't care about anything. That power evolved during his young years, and he could, then, control his emotions. He could love whoever he wanted to, he could hate whoever he wanted to, he could love or hate no one.
Second power, a consequence of the first, was a clean, open mind that was slowly built over years of solitude and philosophy.
Third and last power was, with all that control and intelligence and with a bit of practice, he learnt to navigate through people's minds and understand their emotions. Then he started manipulating them.
And in 1987, Brian had total control over his moral values, emotions, impulses and close friends.
Carol was born in 1971, in Denmark, and little is known about her backstory. Let us rush to the part before they meet. Carol, somehow, had the same powers as Brian. Their upbringing conditions were similar, thus she developed them as well.
She had one more power, though. She could lie. Not just lie, as normal people do. But lie in such a perfect way that you simply couldn't trust anything she said, becase you couldn't say if it was true or not. But she did give her trust to one person. Brian. She moved from her city to his, and there, at the highschool, He met her, through a friend.
Their first contact was a hell of an experience for both of them. They had found their equals. Yet, they were scared. They didn't know the full extent of each other's power. Brian was more confident, but Carol was frightened.
Turns out that, with a bit of talk, she realised she was stronger than him, and he agreed on that. And then, their emotions betrayed their control, and they felt like their were a match.
They promised to get married and did, and in 1991, Alyse was born.
For Brian and Carol, raising a child to the world was meaningless, they knew she would end up being just a part of the system, a tool of society, a living rock. And they agreed on raising their daughter in a unique way. She'd be taught, since little, by Brian and Carol, in such a way that she'd have all their powers by the age of a young teenager.
And so they did. Brian took a mask of bad father, who only ordered her around, and Carol took a mask of conforting mother. No matter what the situation was, If Alyse was around, Brian was a bad father, and Carol conforted her and encouraged her to face her father. Most of the times, she ended up getting beaten up. A little girl, fighting against her evil, bad father, and helped by her mother.
She used all the tools she could, to deceive her father, but she wasn't good at it. When she lied about something, Brian easily noticed, and always hit her. But her mother encouraged her and taught her a few tricks.
Brian and Carol talked about how hard should he be, or what Carol should say. They were accomplices in that mission. Raising a warrior, a true soldier, one that would endure anything.
Evidence of their success were clear when she was around 9 years old. She could lie better than her mother, but she didn't lie to her. See, that was also part of the plan. Carol would be her best friend and eternal protector, in order for her to know what's going on on Alyse's mind. And, with pride, that their plan was clearly working, Carol and Brian were happy.
When Alyse was 18 years old, she was a woman made of iron. She had such a tranquil state of mind and control over every little thought in her mind. She was the mixture of Brian and Carol, their creation. And she was much stronger than both.
Alyse was cold, calculating, quick-thinking, determined, an incredible liar and manipulator. She could endure pain, she was beaten up all those years. She could fight a little. She could kill, or give up life without regret.
In order to avoid her killing her father, who started to act really carefully with food/drinks and always carried a taser, Brian and Carol decided to sit with her and tell her their plan. Hopefully, she would be thankful.
They sat in the living room, all three, and they began talking. "Alyse, what would you do, if during your entire life, the pain and suffering you endured were part of a plan?". She remained quiet, but it got her attention. "What would you do, if your father and mother raised you in a brutal way, in order to make you who you are now?" She took a while to answer, her forehead contraction in an avalanche of hatred, fought by a strong self-controlling mind. Then she relaxed, exhaled and said, in her usual, cold voice. "I'd kill you both.".
Brian and Carol knew that Alyse, now, knew it was true. Then after a moment of silence, Alyse said "Then, I'd thank you."
"Would you be happier if we just got out of your life?", her parents said. She thought for a moment. "Yes.".
And so, Brian and Carol moved to France, and left Alyse alone in Denmark, with most of their money.
She thought of ways of using her skills, skills those that were results of a harsh upbringing, but skills she was thankful for. She decided to join the police force.
She went through police academy, and began as partner of a man named Elton, a seargeant in the Police Deparment of Helsingør. She ranked up really quickly, reaching Seargent rank in practically 3 years. A few years that, she was assigned another partner, a rookie girl named Mary. They worked together through various situations. Alyse liked her, she was her first real friend. But something always pissed Alyse off. Mary was slow-thinking, she didn't belong there. She, most likely, joined the police force out of need. And one day, it turned critical.
They were having lunch at an arabian food restaurant, a bit far from the PD. Mary had to go to the bathroom, and the moment she was there, Alyse got called via radio. She was the closest unit to respond to an emergency call about a violent husband. When Mary came back, Alyse had already packed their remaining food for travel, and was waiting by the car. They got in, and she explained they were on call.
As they got close to the situation, the scenery looked familiar to Mary. She commented. "I live around here. It'd better not be Mr. McKinnon". The known violent husband of the block. No, it wasn't him. They were going on Mary's street when Alyse parked the car. Mary asked. "Why did you park your car at my place? You're going alone?". Alyse looked confused, then in a slight of a second, she figured the situation out. She got out of the car, and knocked on the door. They heard screams. Mary rushed to open the door, taking a key from under a plant vase. She opened it, and they both rushed in. Mary's mother was on the couch, screaming and bleeding from her left eyebrow, and her husband was returning from their bedroom, holding a gun.
Alyse quickly unholstered her pistol, pointed it to the man and yelled. "Drop it! Drop the weapon!". Then something unexpected happened. Mary unholstered her gun and rushed towards her father, standing between him and Alyse, yelling "No!", 30 feet away. Mary's mother started crying really hard, and screaming. "Don't shoot!", screamed Mary. She was holding her weapon, but was not pointing it to Alyse. "She's smart not to.", tought Alyse, in a slight of a second. "Move, Mary. That man is dangerous!". Mary's father raged, and pushed Mary out of the way, he was looking for a line for fire to shoot Mary's mother. He was clearly very drunk, yelling names at his wife.
Then a shot was fired. Mary's father attempted to shoot her mother, but the shot was a few inches off, and hit the couch. Alyse readied her weapon to take down the man, when something unexpected happened. Mary raised her weapon, pointing it to Alyse, who didn't stop, just yelled "Officer Jonson, put down your weapon NOW!". The strengh of Alyse's yell probably scared off Mary, who was also trying to push her father backwards into the corridor, thus, not allowing him to even see his wife. He fired another shot, that went past Mary's head and hit the window. The glass around the bullet hole shattered in that particular way.
Mary shot. Alyse was hit on her right arm. The next facts happened in less than a second. Mary's weapon started falling out of her hands. Alyse, instinctively using the strengh of the impact on her advantage, as her right arm was thrown backwards, she turned in her chest in the same direction and threw her left arm forward, bearly aimed down the weapons sights and fired one shot at Mary. As she was falling down, she fired another round. The moment she hit the ground, she aimed down the sights again, and shot Mary's father, who was aiming at her. The man fell backwads.
Alyse was panting, breathing heavily. She felt a small burn in her arm. Her brain seemed to be functioning in light speed, as her body flooded with adrenaline. She looked around. Mary was fallen on the ground, with a bullet hole on her forehead. Her father was also on the ground, bleeding heavily from his chest, heart pierced by a 9mm round.
The only sounds were the mother's screams, crying over the dead bodies of her family. Alyse slowly stood up, still shaking in adrenaline. Her breathing was slowing down. She holstered her weapon and stopped for a moment. She was stunned. That was her first strong feeling in a very long time. She took Mrs. Jonson by her arm, saying "I need you to come with me...". Her hearing started to come back, as the adrenaline flood started diminishing. She heard noises outside, people talking. And she heard her radio.
Next thing she knew, she was touched on the shoulder. She turned around quickly, it was Elton. "Are you okay?" He said. "You've been standing there since we got here.". She looked outside through the broken window. There was a safety perimeter set around the house and multiple police cruisers parked. Lots of people. Mrs. Jonson was getting treatment at the ambulance. Lots of sirens, lots of noises. "Come, we better take care of that." Elton led Alyse out of the house, she was snapping out of it. "I..I shot Mary...", she said in a low, cold voice. "We know. The wife told us everything. You had to, don't blame yourself.". As if in a triggered answer, she quickly said "Blame myself, pff.." Then she stopped. She was blaming herself.
Alyse was treated in the ambulance, then taken to the hospital. The .22 caliber bullet went straight through her arm, so no complicated surgery was needed, and no permanent damage was sustained.
Next morning, on her recovery bed, she woke up and stopped to think. She was dangerous. She didn't hesitate to shoot an emotionally unbalanced officer. "She had dropped her weapon...", she kept repeating to herself. "I shouldn't have shot...", "I'm a monster..", "I need to be watched 24/7..."
And then, War.
After the shock, her harsh upbringing also allowed her to adapt real quick to the Combine way of life. She, now spends her day looking for someone strong enough to watch her, and smart enough not to be deceived by her.
