(ooc: Ren here! This is a complete rework of the character in order to fit into our semi movie verse RP. Sibyl is neither an alien nor a telepath exactly: she is what she should have been in the first place. I have layered elements of what little was done with the character in the comics in order to stick to cannon as best I can.)
Name: Sibylinka Petulengro
Codename(s): The Oracle
Affiliation: (New Mutant)
Age: 16
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 140
Hair Color: Pale blue
Eye Color: Pale pink
Appearance: Sibyl stands taller and thinner than the family of her birth, but that is not where the difference in appearances end: from birth she has possessed long silky hair of an almost translucent, ice blue, skin as white as rice and eyes a pastel shade of shell pink. Most take her to be an albino. She almost always wears pale colors that match herself; light grays, blues, whites.
Personality: Soft spoken and quiet, she is friendly and warm to those not too intimidated by her appearance to speak with her. Her laugh is seldom heard not because she lacks a sense of humor, but because her voice simply never lifts in volume enough to allow it. Still many consider her pleasant to be around. She tries her best to speak English but is often hindered by a thick Russian accent that only those from her homeland would know not as Russian, but the dialect of her people, the Roma.
Powers and Abilities: Prophecy: Sibyl can see the future with varying levels of clarity. Sometimes visions come in her sleep, sometimes at random moments, sometimes when she is able to focus them through some form of divination. The visions are fully sensory, rendering Sibyl nearly catatonic as she sees, smells, hears and tastes with perfect clarity. Not as clear are the meanings of the visions themselves- much like dreams, they are open to interpretation and often involve vague or complex metaphors and sequences. She can choose to try and see the future voluntarily with moderate success; always the visions that come without warning are far more powerful than any she can lead herself to.
Sibyl is fluent in Romani, Russian, Armenian, Greek, and is quickly learning English. She is proficient in mathematics and has tested at extremely high intelligence levels.
Weaknesses: Sibyl is prone to many of the afflictions of albinism both human and animal. Her eyes are extremely sensitive to light and as a result her vision is slowly degrading. She burns very easily in the sun, even on an overcast day, and so often stays inside to protect her delicate skin.
History: Sibylinka has been exploited most of her life. Born to the Petulengro Roma, one of Eastern Europe's most notorious Russian Gypsy families, her abilites were discovered at a very young age and quickly became a source of income for her family. She told fortunes on the streets, whether they were truth or not. While they loved and protected her, the wide exposure to society left her open to much manipulation. During their travels she met many individuals, for good or ill. At the age of 14 she was seduced away from her family by a man named Abilio who said he was from Portgual; she had forseen her fate lied with him for better, or for worse. Within weeks she landed in Saudi Arabia as the prize of a superstitious Pakistani warlord, Azhar al-Ammi. Too smart for her captor, she convinced him his fate lied in a business deal with a rich foreign oil baron from the United States. As the superstitious have the ability to create their own coincidence, Azhar found his business partner and soon flew himself and his Oracle to Austin, Texas. It was there she was able to escape him, finding aid through the local police department. Again Sibyl knew the soldiers in blue and gold would lead her to her fate; one of them, Lieutenant Marshall Fox, happened to be a mutant. He adopted her into his household, sending her to public school so that she could learn English and become an american citizen. Alas the ignorance of youth prevented her from a peaceful life in human society. She was often ridiculed for her appearance and her thick accent she was never quite able to shake- all compounded by the fact that sometimes, she would say something so unusual, she gathered the nickname Space Cadet within the first few weeks in school. and so her adopted father sent her to Xavier's, in the hopes that she could make a success out of herself in some capacity.
