Appearance

Hair color:ginger
Eye color:light green
Skin color:pale-peach
Height:5'9"
Weight:130
Special markings:none
Clothing: Kai hates school uniforms so she wears them only as much as she has too. She likes black, and sometimes she looks kind of Gothic. She doesn't really consider herself to be goth but she's noticed people tend to avoid you when you dress that way
Overall Appearance: Standing nearly six-feet tall with green eyes and ginger hair, she's a rather impressive figure. She's long limbed and slender, but so much to keep her from having a defined figure. Her hair stretches to her mid-back and has a slight natural curl to it, though she prefers to keep it straight and back. Her pale skin contrasts sharply with her hair and dark clothing.

Schuyler angular and slightly sloped features give her a rather refined appearance, something helped along by the way she grooms herself. She hates to appear uncomposed or out of control, so scarcely will she common with a hair or eyelash out of place. She tends to wear only high-lighting make up, not being the biggest fan of it.

Personality

Likes: Kung-fu, Shaolin history, fountains, stone sculptures, quiet, coffee
Dislikes: chaos, messes, social networking, people who talk too much
pastimes:reading, walking, horseback riding
habits:drinking coffee in the morning by herself, nibbling on the end of her pencil

Secrets:Her parents, she never talks about them to anyone nor confirms any rumors about if she even has parents or if she's an orphan
Fears:People getting to close to her, something happening to her mother
Goals:She wants to become a top operative
she wants to make her father proud
Super-Objective: she needs to know that there’s one person in the world who will care that she exists after she loses her mother.

Abilities/skills: 1. Kung Fu-she's been taking it since she was eight as is top of her class, she's pretty good at hand to hand combat in general.
2. manipulation-she's good and getting things from other people using a variety of tactics, she's recently developed a talent for seduction as well.
Weakspots: Knife fighting-she's not aggressive enough to use one effectively.
Too cautious-she's aware that she has this problem and tries to fix it, but it stills poses a problem for her ability to function as an agent.
Strengths: Perceptive: she notices almost everything, especially things people are trying to hide.
focused: right now nothing distracts her from her studies, which translates over into her missions
patient: Something she picked up from Kung Fu, she can ou twait almost anyone and doesn't get riled up quickly.
Weaknesses: Reserved-she doesn't allow anyone in, meaning she has no one to talk too.
perfectionist- she has unrealistic expectations of herself
disconnected- her method of dealing with things is just to ignore it, meaning that it kinds of builds up like this big huge weight inside her
Overall personality:Schuyler is an interesting character. She believes that she doesn’t need anyone, and even though that’s probably false, she sticks to it. She never opens up to anyone, never gets close to anyone or vice versa; never lets anyone see her struggling, or see anything about her that’s actually true. She prefers to be alone in almost any instance, and her reputation in school is a little bit of that of a loner. She doesn’t believe this affects her ability to work as team as she doesn’t have a problem using other people to achieve a goal, but she doesn’t recognize that trust is an important part of this equation.

This may be who Schuyler is, but it isn’t who she appears to be. She’s learned that who you are is irrelevant next to who people think you are, so she’s put up an image of a sarcastic, self-contented girl who likes to direct conversations. Even though she hates conversation, she engages in it so she can gain information from other people that she can use later, and so she doesn’t come off as being too ant-social to be accepted. She knows how to play it to make people think they’re close to her and she’s close to them, even though she isn’t really. She tends to bounce around groups, never hanging with anyone for too long so no one has a chance to get to know her. She pretends, because it suits her purpose.

She’s not cruel, but nor is she the most understanding person, she just believes that this is the best way to live for both herself as well as others.

Background

Family:Samantha Elise Clark;38;high school teacher
Simon Anthony Jackson;40;MI6 agent
History: her parents met at Cambridge Universality and began dating. About a year later Samantha became pregnant, and they decided to get married. For a while their new family got a long great, but when Schuyler was three her father disappeared and never came back. She could remember him, but only barely.

Samantha had always known there was something, extraordinary about Simon, and it became clear Sky had inherited a lot of these abilities. Her mother struggled to find academic programs that were challenging enough for her from the time she was in Kindergarten. She was also extremely active, climbing on furniture doing flips off her bed. Her mother got her involved in Gymnastics, and then Karate. Schuyler enjoyed both of these, but it was in Kung fu that she found her true passion.

Schuyler didn't relate well to people her age. It wasn't that she was shy or awkward, she just didn't seam interested in other kids. her mother hoped she grow our it, but she never did. That isn't to say she never had any friends, just no one that she was ever close to.

When Schuyler was ten years old she was by herself drinking coffee when she saw someone who looked like the man from her picture above the mantel. She began to approach him, though in an elusive manner. Her father saw her coming though and unfortunately so did his target, who happened to be an assassin. Her father kidnapped her in order to protect her and he reluctantly revealed to her that he was a spy, and that had been the reason why he'd left her and her mother.

She also found out that he'd been trying to keep her out of this life, but her little act had warranted the attention of higher ranking officials, who recommended that she attend Churchill. The idea was proposed to her mother as a school for the gifted, though Sky has often suspected that her mother knew her father was a spy and therefore knew what this school would entail, at least part of it. She turned the decision over to Schuyler, who immediately said yes.

Schuyler has never told her back story to anyone, nothing about how her mother is a civilian nor that her father is an agent, it wouldn't be to hard for someone to piece together who her mother was with a little research, though her father might be a bit harder.
Cover History: She's never confirmed the theories, but the one she's sort of encouraged is that her parents are dead and she lives with her legal guardians.

Roleplay sample: Schuyler listened to the sound of her mother’s footsteps in the kitchen. She could hear as she grabbed her keys, closed the counter drawer. Could hear the tentative steps as she cast one final glance down that hall that lead to Schuyler’s room before sighing and heading toward the door. She listened, and waited. The moment she heard the door slam she snapped her book shut and leapt gracefully off her bed, walking quickly and soundlessly toward the window. Her mother had reached the bottom floor and was just pulling out of the Driveway. Kai waited until she had disappeared from view before wheeling around and strode back into her room. She carefully closed the door behind her, more out of habit than anything else since no one was home to hear her. She pulled open her drawer and removed the board that hid the things she didn’t want her mother to find should she ever decide to clean Schuyler’s room, which was practically never since she kept it so clean herself, but that didn’t stop her from being cautious.

Inside was a miniature safe that could only be opened by fingerprint recognition, and inside that was her Glock G30, her favorite handgun. She carefully, almost hesitantly pulled out and quickly sat on her bed. She never felt comfortable taking it out when her mother was home, partly because she didn’t even know Kai had it, and partly because to do so felt like she was somehow bringing her spy life on her mother.

She took a deep breath and she slipped out the magazine and began to wipe it down. She hated lying to her mother, no matter how necessary she felt it was. And when she did it she could only think about how she was only delaying the inevitable. How she couldn’t pretend to be her mother’s daughter forever. How one day she was going to have to make the exact same decision her father made…

She slipped the magazine back inside with unnecessary force, as though she could somehow force the thoughts away as easily.
