— FIRST IMPRESSIONS —

★ APPEARANCE Heather is 5'5, slender with shoulder length brown hair and brown eyes that she will always wear down and usually wears straight.

★ CLOTHING She uses her clothes as a disguise, trying to blend into the situations around her -- often this will be a blouse and trousers with heels, though she's fond of knee-length dresses when she's dressed more casually.

★ DEMEANOR Heather can often have a distant expression on her, sometimes needing her name said twice before her attention is gotten. She's described as someone "too in her head" which is very accurate, though when she's pulled back to reality she's incredibly sociable, loving knowing what's happening around her or finding the company of someone new.

★ AURAL Heather uses a California accent, something that's taken her a lot of practice [isn't perfect but passes], though when she's tired her Colorado accent slips out. There's always a warmth to her voice, the friendliness and joy she gets from being around people, and she's typically confident in her speech.

★ OLFACTORY Heather favours more fruit-scented perfumes, cherry or pear being two of her favourite. She will never wear a floral fragrance.

— SKILLS —

★ TECHNOPATHY the implant in Heather's brain allows her to "telepathically" interface with a computer device that she is in physical contact with (through manipulating her bio-electrical signals ). It enables Heather to use devices much quicker through this communication than physically use it would, using the apps or functions she needs. Heather sees this projected "visually" as a screen in front of her, a translucent image that she can see through but is only visible to her, which disappears when she loses contact with the device. If Heather was in the middle of something and suddenly lost contact the process would be lost or cancelled unless the computer could continue it without continued direction.

★ EIDETIC MEMORY whilst she doesn't have a true eidetic memory, the implant stores information in her memories preventing it from being naturally forgotten. Heather has to manually think to retrieve the information, like calling up any memory, as there is no instantaneous retrieval.

★ LIMITATIONS as Heather's implant only functions as a pathway, she can only use technology in this way if she is in contact with it: she is not google and does not know everything. Heather is also very susceptible to cognitive overload: if she tries to take in information too quickly her brain won't be able to process it and she'll "shut down" (pass out until she's recovered). Over-extended use of her technopathy is also physically draining, starting first with headaches (to migraines) and physical exhaustion.

★ NOTES whilst (especially in Thorne) there isn't any technology for Heather to use her technopathy with, her implant still functions as a vital part of her [and her basic functioning].
