[PTabbedContent] [PTab=POWER] [attr="class","appcon"]Abilities: -Can alter the cognitive perception of individuals, thus warping their perception on the reality around them. Can also branch out and physically alter reality around her. [attr="class","appcon"]Explanation of Power: Lestrade's power basically entails that she can make illusions within the minds of others around her. By gently poking and prodding around in the mind and senses of an individual, she can alter their perception of the world into what she wants them to see. For example, by focusing in on a single individual, she can block out sight and then make them 'see' something else. Essentially, Lestrade uses the minds of others against themselves. This art of illusion making has become almost secondhand to Lestrade, and it comes as easily to her now as breathing might; her cognitive illusions are so fine tuned it has become a reality for her victims. However, Lestrade still must focus in for her gift to substantially work. Low motivation often yields a poor, 'seethrough' illusion. Secondly, Lestrade's power over time, has developed and branched out so that her illusions and perception bending has manifested into the physical world. She blames it on the realms converging, but it is merely a combination of the convergence and her own abilities. With physical reality bending, Lestrade can gently poke and prod at the world around her into forming what she wants. For example, by concentrating at a building with ten stories, if she wants that building to go down to nine stories, with extreme mental effort and will, the building will shape itself to what she imagines. Currently, this ability is quite new and is still very rough around the edges. It's time and mana consuming, and often results in a half-shaped result of what Lestrade has imagined. So far, that just means Lestrade can really only warp small things, such as small objects, physical attributes about herself and others, and details of the world around her. She can attempt to work at larger things, such as buildings, roads, even large rooms, however, this saps too much mana and leaves her physically unable to defend herself.

She's somewhat slender, though with the years demanding physical work, she has a fit body. Her curves are not as pronounced as they were in highschool, being replaced with more lean muscle, but Les has still managed to keep her womanly body. She's quite pale, which makes the occasional bruise stand out even more than it should. Her hair is a bright ginger, and falls just below her shoulder blades in loose curls. Her face is a bit rounder, but her features are soft and delicate, giving her a rather doll-like look at times. Her eyes are rather pretty, being a very bright and clear shade of amber. She carries herself quietly, but she has a powerful, demanding aura. It's mainly good posture and the addition of heeled boots, but it helps her make her way through crowds without having to bat an eye. [/PTab={max-height:200px;min-height:200px;}][PTab=PERSONALITY] [attr="class","appcon"]Likes: Reading and learning, traveling, the cold, well-made clothing, tea and coffee, and using her power. [attr="class","appcon"]Dislikes: Gossip, the headaches that come with her power occasionally, soda, not being able to take control of situations she's in charge of, fighting, and snakes. [attr="class","appcon"]General Personality: Driven: Lestrade herself is not a complicated woman. She's like most other humans, driven by what she wants, what interests her, and what she knows will promote her further in life. She's driven to keep her family safe, above anything else. Ever since Bolas came to this realm, she's done everything in her power to keep her family well and alive, and so far, has succeeded. Essentially, Lestrade does what she wants and what she feels is best and necessary for the situation. She's hard working and committed to whatever task she feels is best for her to complete at the time. However, if Lestrade doesn't find something or someone necessary, she's not committed to them or the task. She does what promotes her most. Relaxed: Lestrade for the most part, is a very relaxed and goes with the flow. Not much bothers her, save for idiots who make her job more stressful than it needs to be. She knows her limits and she knows what she can do, and it helps the girl keep a level and practical head. She's mature and responsible, and knows what needs to get done. Adventurous: Lestrade loves adventure. She can't stand just sitting around and waiting for something to happen. Les is a thrill junkie, and she loves going out to see if she can find something interesting to explore or do. She's always enjoyed traveling, whether it be to different cities, states, or even countries. Her thrill for adventure is also fueled by a need to learn. Lestrade enjoys learning about things, especially such as foreign cultures and languages. As of now, she can fluently speak English and French, and is working on German and Spanish. Intelligent: Lestrade is quite handy with her intelligence. She's a smart little whip who knows how to gets what she wants by being resourceful. While she's got her book smarts, she's also got her street smarts that help her out on the ravaged streets of New York. Paired up with her book smarts, Lestrade is quite the sly and intelligent woman. IQ is not everything however. Lestrade is also quite emotionally intelligent. She's empathetic and she can reach out and understand those around her with little effort. Perhaps it was because of her past taking care of her siblings, but the girl understands how others work. And if used in the right situation, that ability can be used against those who oppose her. She's quite smart and isn't afraid to use her resources. [/PTab={max-height:200px;min-height:200px;}][PTab=HISTORY] [attr="class","appcon"]Family: Michael Winchester (father-54), Aurélie Robespierre-Winchester (mother-53), Lafayette Robespierre (grandmother-80), Melody Winchester (sister-28), Rory Winchester (brother-12), and Clara Winchester (sister-12). [attr="class","appcon"]History: Lestrade always had a calm, relatively normal childhood. Her parents treated her and her siblings the best they could. They raised their children with care, making sure to keep them humble despite their powers. To this day, Lestrade thanks her parents for that way of upbringing. Her powers manifested at around the age of eight or so, in the form of hallucinations often resulting in pain or wild fear. Over the years and eventually being sent to the Phoenix Academy to learn her powers, Lestrade grew not only as a human being, but as a gifted individual. Summer trips to her grandmother's in France, where Lafayette taught her most favorite child not only French, but more about her power, only helped Lestrade out in the long run. After graduating from Phoenix, Lestrade moved out from New Jersey where she grew up to New York and pursued degrees in psychology and business. She learned how the stock market worked and with several very lucky draws, landed herself a job at one of the highest paying corporations in New York at the time due to the shares she had purchased and the such. Lestrade learned how to manipulate then. How to get what she wanted, whether it be money, security and safety for her family, or a partner for the night. Lestrade had never enjoyed keeping people around for more than a few days, and one night stands eased her somewhat ever present loneliness. As five years passed, Lestrade found herself as a powerful and successful business woman. However, with the crumbling of Phoenix and the world in shambles, Les found herself in a precarious situation. Above anything else, Lestrade valued her family. To this day she values her family. And she knew with the little wars bursting out, keeping them safe would not work if she worked for just one side. It was a foul move, playing devil's advocate. But she decided from that point, whoever offered her more, offered her the best, they got her abilities. A cruel move in the eyes of others. Made her out to be a backstabbing bitch. But in Lestrade's eyes, she'd rather work for whoever paid the most and offered the highest job security because in the end, if she was broke and dead, her family would be in danger. And she'd rather be a backstabbing advocate for the devil than to let that happen. [/PTab={max-height:200px;min-height:200px;}] [PTab=ROLEPLAY] "I'll cost you," Lestrade said after a moment, looking at the man with calm, light brown eyes. The man looked sweaty and greasy, as if covered in a fine sheen of slick oil. Oily fear. Lestrade wrote him a figure on a piece of paper and slide it across to him along the table they sat at. It was inside. In a small cafe. Quiet. Unsuspecting. The man took the paper, eyed the number, and nodded. Within a moment, he was pulling out a checkbook and writing down that number and then some for a tip. Lestrade smiled and accepted the check when presented to her. "Thank you, sweetheart. Now, tell me what your boss wants me to do again?" she asked in a soft voice. The man nodded. "Just make a few associates agree with what he has to say. You know. Do your thing. Make them do what he wants. You know what I mean," the man sighed, looking to her with tired, fearful eyes. Lestrade nodded. "Fine then. What will it be? Mishearing? Sight deprivation? Or something creative? Random?" she asked in an almost bored tone. The man nodded. "Anything that will make them agree to this clearing. If this job is cleared, then my boss will hire you again. Triple that check, every time you work for him. Guaranteed." Lestrade raised an eyebrow. But she smiled anyways, holding her hand out to shake. The man accepted, but the moment his hand touched hers, a great, firey pain alit his palm and fingers, burning bright. The man cried out in pain until he stifled it, not wanting to draw eyes. Lestrade's smile grew wider. "Oh, I do hope your boss is that generous. I expect this check to not be a false one. And I do hope that guarantee is backed up. It'd be a shame--" she began, gripping his hand tight and letting the false flames of pain lick up his wrist until he squirmed and whined in pain. "--If that was just a lie," she said. She let go of his hand. "Thanks for coming to an understanding with me," she hummed, not paying mind to his now cradled hand that trembled and twitched. "I do wish to speak to you again. Have your boss call me. Lestrade Winchester. He can call me Les." [/PTab={max-height:200px;min-height:200px;}][/PTabbedContent={max-height:200px;min-height:200px;}]
