Alida (Character 4)

Character 2:

Alida (pronounced ah-LEE-da) means small winged one. Her true heritage and decent is unknown to all even herself, but she often takes the form of a young Indian girl (as in from India) wearing a long faded brown cloak, scarf, and gloves in order to prevent people from seeing her. Most of the time the only part of her visible is her eyes. She does this because since she cannot control her morphing ability, her body will change naturally based on her environment. Like a chameleon her form will change depending who she is around. If she is near a lot of Caucasians she will morph into a Caucasian girl. Same goes for every other human race (its pretty much a defense technique).

History: When Alida was born she was sent home with the wrong family. Despite this, she had a pretty enjoyable childhood until around fourteen when her false parents died in a car crash and she was sent to an orphanage. Soon after that though her real mother and father tracked her down after many years looking for their missing daughter and found her at the orphanage (blood tests). They took her home and for the next four years she lived with them and their adopted daughter, Linda, who is the girl that got switched with her when they were babies. These two girls became close friends and promised to be there for each other no matter what. On both their 18th birthdays they went out together to celebrate, when while taking a short cut through an abbey a masked person grabbed Linda and ran off with her leaving Alida knocked out. In Alida’s hand they stuffed a note that read: “Meet us in New York. Call the cops, she dies”. Alida goes to New York and winds up getting captured, and tested on like a lab rat. After going through several painful tests Alida awakens a hidden drive built deep within her genetic make-up, the morph drive. Unfortunately due to what the scientists did to her she forgot everything accept for the name Linda. Before the scientists could examine her further she escapes without a trace. Ironically, Linda the one she set out to save in the first place was right underneath her feet in a chamber below the lab she escaped from. Eventually Alida is caught by the police when they see her running blood soaked down the street, and they take her in for questioning. The police confirm that she has a drive after witnessing her morph and so they send her to the New World, a school that specializes in repairing people's broken drives, and so on. So the story starts with her at the school, she’s now like 19, and has been there for about a few months. She is still trying to figure out who Linda is. Linda on the other hand is missing, her location remains a mystery.

Behavior: Shy and very timid. Avoids other people like the plague. Despite this, she is very observent and knows everyone at the school like the back of he hand. She has a computer that contains records of everyone in the New World (teachers and students), and she daily updates these records. No one knows about her computer yet, but some of the information that she has gathered can be very dangerous in the wrong hands.
