Falconidae Physiology: The user takes on the abilities and attributes of falcons, and in Skyelar's case the Peregrine Falcon. She has all the reflexes, balance, agility, vision, and instincts of a Peregrine falcon along with a surprisingly hollow skeleton in order to lighten her frame for flight. She has fairly long, wings, her feathers being fairly long reflecting the bird that she inherited the wings from perfectly. The wings have the potential to propel her to supersonic speeds, though she has yet to do so. Skyelar has an enhanced lung capacity, making it possible for her to fly at fairly high altitudes with little effort and little risk of falling short on air. Due to her wings and larger lung capacity she has an extremely high metabolism, leading to a higher then average body temperature as well. Because of this, as long as she keeps moving at colder temperatures she can survive quite easily, especially since she spent most of her flight practice at altitudes that were fairly cold in temperature. Despite her strengths in the sky, Skyelar is extremely weak when on the ground. She is easily overpowered when caught, and her bones are weaker when bent at the right angle due to the inner structure of the bones. They can take the punishment of landing and striking blows, but catch them and bend them at the right angle and they can easily be snapped in two. She also can not accept normal blood donations, her blood cells having nuclei in order to multiply seeing as she does not have any bone marrow. Though she is agile on the ground it's not nearly as pronounced as it is when in the air, meaning that a gifted with the power of enhanced agility can easily out maneuver her when on the ground. in flight, her cruising speed is 140 mph, top speed in short bursts is 500 mph and in extended flight is 300mph, and in a dive she can break the sound barrier. She is fairly maneuverable in the air, being able to pull off stunts and maneuvers of around 10Gs before starting to feel the effects of the G-forces on her body. Her wingspan is nine feet.
Enhanced Intelligence: Skyelar's intelligence has been confirmed to be enhanced to a degree beyond genius level. She is extremely gifted in scientific knowledge, being able to design and build robotics far beyond what many corporations can prepare. Though her other studies have extremely high marks, it's obvious by the way she treats it that the sciences and maths are her forte, being able to far exceed many in these areas. History and literature are by far her weakest subjects, being the only subjects that she actually has to work at to learn and be good with.
Member Group: Neutral
Canon or not: Student Body Treasurer
Appearance: Standing at only five foot two and weighing in at a slim 93 pounds Skyelar is on the small side. Despite this she is surprisingly curvy and well built due to her hollow bones accounting for her light weight. Her hair is cut short, being longer in front so that it hangs lightly over her shoulders. Her eyes are a deep green, nearly matching her hair to the exact shade. Don't let her appearance fool you though, she is a surprisingly adept fighter, relying on her speed and agility to avoid hits and being caught when caught in a bad situation. Her metabolism is quite high, leading to her eating quite a bit whenever she sits down for a meal.
When she is not wearing the school uniform she is normally in nonrestrictive clothing. Normally during the warmer times of the year she is in a tank top and short shorts to keep cool. During the colder months of the year she normally wears a long sleeve shirt with slits cut out of the back in order to accommodate for her wings. Along with this she'll wear pants, normally either skinny jeans or boot-cut depending on what kind of shoes she is wearing.

Overall Personality: Skyelar is a quick witted and fairly intelligent girl. She can normally solve a problem fairly fast, no matter the subject. Her grades have always been some of the highest marks in the school, very rarely scoring anything under a 95 on a test. This does not mean she only knows how to work out of a book, for being raised on a farm out in the country she knows how to handle people. She's not one of those smart yet ignorant to how to interact people, more of your normal girl who just happens to be smart.
She is a tomboy at heart, not really caring for makeup and clothes she prefers to wear what's comfortable for her and doesn't really care what others think of how she looks. She knows she's pretty without painting her face and prefers her natural beauty over a fake one. Skyelar prefers not to wear a dress as well, though she doesn't mind wearing a skirt, and even prefers it over the pants the boys have to wear. Despite all this she does have her girly tendencies, though over all her tomboyish side shows more.
Skyelar is stubborn and hard to calm on the rare occasion she is angered. Her quick wit and overall agility can often times surprise even those who are expecting her to blow. You do not want her to blow, when she does it is extremely hard to calm her down, though if you offer her enough sweets she may calm down, though only temporarily. Normally she is quite hyper and energetic, leading to her love of of parties, big or small.
History
Family Members/guardians:
Mother: Rose Falknor
Father: Felix Falknor
Siblings: None
History: Skyelar was born to a quite simple family in the Great Plains of the United States. Her mother and family ran a small farm leading to a fairly simple life style for her. When she had turned five her wings materialized out of nowhere, leading to her parents deciding to home school her to hide her wings from the world. Despite this homeschooling her parent's soon found that she was surprisingly smart, taking in everything that they taught her like a sponge.
Eventually they started to teach her how to shoot and hunt, figuring she would probably need it at some point if anyone found out about her wings. They were afraid that she would be shunned and pushed away from people. Despite this upbringing the few times they had people over Skyelar was surprisingly talkative, being a natural people person she had no issues with talking to and interacting with anyone.
When the governments of the world set up Ashford Academy School for the Gifted, Skyelar's parents ignored it, figuring that they had no idea of Skyelar's existence. Eventually the government found out though, and like all good politicians were able to convince her parents to surrender her to the school. That was two years ago. Now she has been at the school or a few years, and despite the fact that it feels like a prison she enjoys getting to interact with people, especially since she was more of a people person than the hermit she was being forced to be back home.

RP Sample: Skyelar had been planning out how she would approach the bar for weeks, slowly gathering her thoughts and collecting a few extra things, such as a coat long enough to cover her wings without being too suspicious. She had also spent much time waiting for a moment when she could enter with even less suspicion, a rainy day where a long coat wasn't unheard of for tourists. Today was such a day, and Skyelar had been walking through the streets, wishing that she had a hood of some sort so that her hair wouldn't get wet anymore.
She found the place she had been looking for, Hell's Backdoor. She pushed her way inside, shaking off a little to rid her coat of any water she could and blinked as she looked around. As far as she could tell it was just your average bar, but she spotted a few people she knew were C.C. She walked over to the bar, her eyes drifting around. She didn't stand out too much from what she could tell, other than the goggles that were ever present and hanging around her neck at that moment.
She didn't even know what she wanted to drink, it had been a few months since her last drink and she had never been to an actual bar before. She just had to be careful, not over indulge herself and get drunk, though a slight buzz would be nice. She did need to be ready to flee on a moments notice after all. Skyelar stretched and pulled out her ID and some yen. She walked up to the bar, her fingers tapping on the counter as she tried to decide what exactly she wanted.
