Basic Info
Name:Eden McCain
Bio
My name is Sarah Ellis Eden McCain.

I killed my stepmother and ran away from home, but I'm doing pretty well, all things considered.

You see, I have a kind of gift for getting what I want.



NAME ; Sarah Ellis
ALIAS ; Eden McCain
MEANINGS; SARAH is HEBREW and means 'princess'; EDEN is HEBREW and means 'place of pleasure'. McCAIN is a patronymic claiming descent from the world's first murderer.
AGE ; 25
OCCUPATION ; petty criminal Primatech operative

SEXUAL ORIENTATION ; bisexual

PB ; Nora Zehetner

ABILITY ; Persuasion. Eden can compel others to obey her spoken commands. Within those parameters, this power seems almost unstoppable; she can control a subject's autonomic responses, causing cardiac arrest and death, and there appear to be no known instances of anyone actually resisting a command through force of will alone. However, she must be able to speak, and the subject must hear and understand the commands and actually be able to act on them.

PERSONALITY ; first impression // snarky, unworried
Eden does not trust people readily. This has a lot to do with her childhood, and perhaps just as much to do with the fact that she makes her living by being untrustworthy. She still has a fair amount of guilt over this, and uses the fucked-up state of the world to justify it to herself. Her confidence has taken a definite upswing from years of being in absolute control of every situation in which she finds herself, but being deprived of that edge is terrifying to her.

HISTORY ; Sarah Ellis has no memory of her mother, who must have either left or died when she was very young, and her father's relationship with his new wife was tumultuous at best. The constant shouting and verbal abuse drove the young Sarah into elective mutism for years, especially after her father abandoned them, leaving her alcoholic stepmother with no one to take out her frustrations on but Sarah. Finally, one day, she had had enough of such treatment. She told her stepmother to drop dead, and then was very surprised when she did.

Their house caught fire in a related accident about the same time, and Sarah was unable to revive her stepmother despite repeated, frantic commands to get out of danger. With no family, friends, or prospects, and already a dead body to her name, she renamed herself Eden and fled, supporting herself by using her power to get given things, starting with rides and working her way up.

She has since been recruited (rather aggressively) by the Company and assigned first to mindwipe Pietro Maximoff and then to cultivate Mohinder Suresh. This has afflicted her with about as much guilt as the entire rest of her life put together. A reckoning is almost certainly coming...

RELATIVES ; parents - estranged, stepmother - dead

FRIENDS ; Joey Holmberg - met in New York and taught him to control his electrical discharge. He is aware of her double life and she is protecting his identity from the Company. Mohinder Suresh - also met in New York, and only after some heavy flirting was she instructed to watch him for the Company. She has a certain amount of guilt over their subsequent brief relationship, especially now that he knows about it.



Eden's not real, I'm not Nora Zehetner, and NBC owns Heroes. [info]premade_ljs made my layout.
