Description: Jasmine is on the taller side when it comes to female teenagers, reaching about five feet and eight inches, and tends to wear flats and sneakers due to this. She's in decent shape for her size and age, getting exercise from being part of the school's gymnastics team, and is otherwise comfortable with her body. Clothing-wise, she likes dressing comfortably. Jeans, leggings, and plain, soft t-shirts are some of her go-to pieces of her wardrobe, but she does occasionally enjoy dressing up with blouses and skirts. Her blonde hair is usually up in a ponytail or braid, but she does let it free every so often. Her eyes are hazel, with more specs of green than brown.
Personality: Jasmine is fairly cheerful and amicable, usually one to reach out to others and not have a problem giving anyone a hand. As such, she can seem a bit naive and isn't a stranger to taking on more favors than she can handle, but she does her best not to let anyone down. Typically, she's more of a follower in the sense that she's usually game to try anything once, but she does have a decent head on her shoulders and listens to her gut if she feels like something is wrong. She's self-assured when it comes to herself, but she does very much care as to what her peers think of her as well. Once she gets very comfortable with friends, she has no problem letting her walls down and acting silly, nor does she mind being the de facto confidante or mom friend.
Powers: Jasmine's abilities are vine mimicry. Her hair, arms, and legs are able to transform into vines. Her arms and legs each transform into one vine while her hair transforms into several, thinner vines. While each hair strand does not transform into their own, individual vine, her hair creates enough vines to remind others of Medusa, sans the snake heads.
She is able to handle the transformations mentally, controlling the vines from her head with a thought once they morph and supplementing her physical control of her arm and leg vines. Her hair and arm vines are extendable to about ten feet, and her leg vines about half that length in height. Her leg vines are mainly used for height advantage and to stay put in one spot.
With her abilities, she usually has a reach advantage over others, and is generally able to withstand most wind and water attacks. Many nature-based powers appear to have a neutral affect on her.
Weaknesses: Aside from the length limitations, Jasmine can only concentrate on her transformations for so long. Her energy is sapped the longer her limbs are transformed and the more vines she has active. The less vines she has active, the longer she can concentrate on their movements.
The damage her vines take also determines how long she can concentrate on keeping them active. Her vines can sustain burns and cuts, which can transfer onto her own arms and legs once they lose their transformation. While the tips of her vines can be cut off entirely, they are fortunately mostly homogeneous matter -- she'll lose the transformation immediately, but her own fingers and limbs will not be severed.
In regards to her leg vines, she does need to be touching the earth in order to transform them. As previously mentioned, her leg vines help her stay in one spot mainly due to them literally rooting her to the ground by burrowing into the earth.
Extreme heat and cold would also make it difficult for her to concentrate on her transformations.
Skills/Hobbies: Jasmine has a weakness for good movies, loving the idea of just being cozy with a bucket of popcorn with a favorite film and maybe a friend or two. She enjoys trying her own hand at acting for fun. She's also not bad at gardening, although it's unknown whether it's a side effect of her mutation or just an innate talent.
History: All things considered, aside from being a mutant, Jasmine has had a pretty typical life.
She was the second child of Cody and Kendra Williams, coming after her older sister Molly and before her brother Reese with two to three years in between each of them. The little family did well for themselves, staying firmly middle-class throughout their lives and mostly getting along.
After they were married, Cody and Kendra had moved to Harbor View, New York and don't have plans to move. Their plans were focused on raising a good family and being content with life rather than trying to achieve any grand plans. A quiet life was what they wanted, and they got it until their second child started spouting vines on her head not too long after her sixteenth birthday.
While a little weirded out, Cody and Kendra tried to take the fact that Jasmine was a mutant in stride. Jasmine's older sister Molly, however, did not take it well. It wasn't the fact that Jasmine was a mutant that bothered her, really -- it was the fact that having Jasmine move out made others suspicious of them. The reasoning for Jasmine going to Bayville at a boarding house wasn't anyone's business, but it was odd that the family was in Harbor View while one sibling was going to Bayville in the first place. From a teenager's point of view, having one sibling at the rival high school skewed one's social life.
As such, Molly has distanced herself from Jasmine, much to Jasmine's confusion. She continues to talk to her family on a regular basis, but is quite conscious of the fact that what she is may cause problems for her socially, causing her to try to make friends with however many people she can. Jasmine is, overall, enjoying the fact that she was able to be enrolled at the mutant manor with peers like herself.
First Appearance Scene: I'm game with her first appearance on the board as trying to join in some group activity, either at the high school, Xavier's Institute, or out and about somewhere.
