- Kind nature – There’s not a mean bone in her body and she’s always open to help whoever needs it or asks for it, she’s also almost always smiling.
- Fighting skills – She’s a skilled fighter, streetwise.
- Sarcasm – As a human, this used to be her ‘only weapon’, seeing she was raised in a house full of witches and werewolves, as everyone of her sibling is adopted.
- Trusting people – She trusts people easily and is open to help.
WEAKNESSES
[/BLOCKQUOTE]

HISTORY
Leah Bethany Romero was born in Downtown LA, as her mother was homeless and had gotten pregnant while being a teenager. Her mother’s name was Bethany Miles, which was actually her original family-name, as her mother didn’t want Leah to have her father’s name or to even know who her father was. Curious as she was, Leah later found out that her father was in fact a rich business man and started to resent him for his money and his lack of care for his own daughter and the woman he had gotten pregnant.[/BLOCKQUOTE]
Her mother later overdosed when Leah was seven, scarring her far away from drugs and wanting revenge on the fact that her father hadn’t even looked around after her mother had gotten pregnant. However, her father would have none of that and forced her into the system, where she hopped families for over eight years, until Leah had gotten to the age of fifteen and heard that her father had died because of a heart-attack. This made Leah settle down a little, thus ending her in a family full of magical creatures.
She has two older ‘brothers’ who are werewolves, one older ‘sister’ that’s a fairy and three younger ‘sisters’ that are witches, while the ‘mother’ of the family was a vampire and the ‘father’ a witch. However, as this is a very dysfunctional family, it’s grown to be very tight and when Leah gotten to the age of twenty-one, she had grown over the fact that she didn’t have any powers or gifts, like the rest of the family. She didn’t want to leave either and successfully ended her studies to become a photographer at the School of Arts. Her family in fact refused to let her go as well, as one of her siblings had gotten a vision that something was about to happen to Leah.
Something did happen, Leah got into a huge car accident and was in a coma for over three months, while she was on her way home from Campus, to spend Christmas there. After three months, she was declared brain- dead and died. After her death, however, she didn’t end up in the afterlife, but was given a choice; whether or not to become an Angel. She didn’t really have to think twice about this, even though it was tempting to see her mother again and she chose to say ‘yes’ thus being sent back to earth with a task and a ‘mate’ to go with her, but no idea where to start.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Leah has just been sent to earth with an angel, whoever wants to be her ‘mate’, to be a guide for a warrior of good, which was getting used to at first, especially since she doesn’t know who she’s supposed to guide.[/BLOCKQUOTE]

Leah sat there, outside on a bench, enjoying her lunch-break and staring off at something in the distance, thinking of her dysfunctional family, whom she didn’t know if she should go back to or not. She was back on earth for a month now and had luckily gotten a job as a waitress, when she wasn’t guiding, even though she still didn’t know who to guide. Her family contained memories that kept her going back to, whenever she was alone. But also what she was taught in heaven, of the ways she had to pretend and just.. do what they told her to do. Somehow she couldn’t get used to any of it. Mostly because she didn’t want to, truth be told. She looked up when someone yelled her name and was dragged right back to the present, when her boss asked her to come back inside because her lunch break had ended ten minutes ago. She quickly got up and turned around. ”I’m very sorry.” She apologized, as she hurried back inside. ”I’ll be up and running again in five.” She told him, as she quickly walked to the kitchen, behind the counter to undo her jacket and bag. ”You’d better.” Her boss, a dark, balding man said, before walking back to his office.
“How do you always do that?” She heard one of her colleagues ask, on which she just looked at the small, blonde girl, she knew as Daisy, who loved working in the kitchen, more than anything. “Just smile, Daisy, if they don’t impress you, they always just slink off.” Daisy laughed. “Don’t let the boss hear you.” She said, as to which Leah nodded and turned back to the counter, where she started helping people again, with a cheerful smile on her face.
