History
``Mom;; Lillian Jacobs-Bumble, 33, Chief executive of a law firm. Constance has a better relationship with her mother than her father, but they still don't get along with each other particularly well.
``Dad;; James Bumble, 35, Therapist. Constance and her father have a terrible relationship, she hasn't said a word to him since she was 12, and the most she does is nod and shake her head to is questions, with the occasional hand gesture.
``Sibling(s);; An adopted elder brother, Luke Bumble, 21, training at medical school. Her relationship with her brother is almost non-existent, he has barely been around her entire life, since he is seven years older and has always been at different schools than her, but they will often email.
Megan Bumble, died at the age of four.
``Pet(s);; Owl named Edmund.
``Other;; Constance is very close with her aunt, Caroline Jacobs, being most like her, she's 28 and works in England in the London West end.
``History;; Constance was born into a very rich family in Cambridge, England. As a child was very stuck up and selfish, and wouldn't listen to anybody but her mother. As she grew up, she was happy being an only child, when her parents adopted a ten year old. Her adopted brother was very carefree, and when he realised he wanted to become a doctor, set out on a path to become one, meaning Constance never really saw him at all; he was always studying in his room or at school. When Constance was eight years old her younger sister was born, and though at first she didn't like the baby, she grew to love her, and had a fantastic relationship with her sister. When Constance turned twelve her four year old sister died in a terrible accident, which had something to do with her father. Constance decided to become more caring for other people, and stopped being selfish and rude to others, she found that she preferred being kind, although she is nicer, she has never really had any friends, except her three maids, because she has never really left the family home, she even had a private tutor, finding out later that this was because her parents wanted to protect her from the outside world, not wanting her to be bullied by others because of her abilities. Nobody told her why her father was involved in her younger sister's death but her mother and father drifted apart, they moved to America a year or so later, to try and mend the family, but it just tore them further apart. Constance discovered her powers about a year after they moved, at the age of thirteen, and her parents did not seem shocked at all. They decided to send her to a school for the gifted, after being convinced, thinking that at this school she could not be bullied by people who thought she was different, and Constance was happy to go, glad for the change of scenery, and a place away from her family.
``Powers/Abilities/Gifts;; Air manipulation- Constance can shift the air around her with concentration. This ability is stronger in windier and colder seasons; stronger in Autumn and Winter than in Summer and Spring.
Air sensitivity- Constance can, barely, feel a movement in the air around her. She find this a lot easier when there is little to no wind, and the air is calm.
``Role Play Sample;;
Constance had been awake through most of the night, not having been able to sleep over her excitement and anxiety about leaving her large home. She had stayed up, using her power to try to use the air around certain objects to lift them, her manipulation worked better with hand movements, but she needed to practice by using simply her mind, she found it harder with heavier objects like books, but lifting lighter things such as gloves was becoming easier; it was winter, so her control over air was pretty strong. A quick knock on her door made her leap out of her skin, the thin book she had barely lifted of her desk hit the wood with a muffled 'thud!' The knock had most likely come from her mother, telling her to wake up; she was starting at the local boarding school for the gifted today.
She rolled out of bed, and stumbled out the large yet simple room, rubbing her eyes with utter exhaustion. She stopped by the bathroom where Constance's personal maids were waiting to prepare her her for the day ahead, as soon as she opened the bathroom door; they pulled her into the room. Lainie, the youngest maid, turned on the shower and pushed Constance in, as she always did. She stood in the pouring water yawning, after she had cleansed herself, she began to mess around in the water, attempting to catch water droplets in small pockets of air. The maids stood outside the shower for an hour before Constance came out, they dried her off and quickly pulled her clothes on; a striped white and black dress, red opaque tights, and a jean jacket. They made sure she was clean, running a brush through her dark hair then tied it up in a messy bun, the way she liked it. Constance wished, almost every day, that she could do all these things alone, without the help of anybody. But her parents felt that without Lainie, Lucy and Louise, Constance would be a complete mess and wondered what she would do without them. They drew on her simple eye make-up for her, Constance beginning to doze off as they did so before they hurried her out of the bathroom door.
She pulled on black boots and was shoved out of the door by her mother. “Why are we in such a rush?” Constance inquired softly, slipping gently into the passenger seat of her mother’s car. “I have a big client today, and I cannot be late.” Her mother grumbled as Louise opened Constance’s door to hand her two bags, and shoving another one in the back seat ready for the boarding school. She was shocked when her tutor turned up outside, handing her a small brown book, telling her to take notes of her day in it before wishing her a nice time.
The maids and her tutor stood outside waving, Constance waved back, she would miss them, the way they always spoke extremely fast making quick conversation with her but they were more like her family than her mother, father and brother were.
Constance was dropped off around the corner from the school, with a quick kiss on her cheek and a hurried goodbye. She jumped out of the car pulling her bags out with her, and watched her mother’s car drive away before moving towards the front of the large school, not knowing what at all to expect.
