Name: Laura Bonaparte, but you can call me 'Supreme Leader' if you want.
Age: 15
Birthdate: October 9
Place of Birth: Wilmington, Delaware
Gender: Female
Alliance: Chaotic good
Weapon: Abigail (Abby) Callahan
Personality: Laura is a bit of a smart-ass. She is inable to keep her mouth shut, even at the worst of times. She delights in antagonizing people, including adults that she lacks respect for. If she is talking to an adult whom she respects or needs to like her, she can immediately switch to good-girl mode and has an uncannny ability to convince them that she can do no wrong. Her sense of sarcasm is also well-developed. She comes across as quite arrogant and self-assured, but on the inside she is a little insecure.
To her friends she is a completely different person. She is hyper, enjoys joking around, and is fiercely loyal. She is always the center of attention. She is definitely a leader rather than a folllower, and often is a little too assertive. She is pretty smart, but is too lazy to really do well in school. She and Abby both devour books like potato chips, but Abby pays attention in class whereas Laura reads or plays videogames while the teacher is talking. She also has a flair for the dramatic.
One of her personal philosophies is to not hurt things that are much weaker than herself. Because of this, she refuses to hurt bugs (even though she's terrified of big crawly ones) and other small creatures. She believes in equal rights for everybody (including witches) as long as they're not hurting anybody. She has no room in her life for haters. She is also a vegetarian.
Appearance: Laura is a little on the short side, being only 5' 2''. She's also a little on the heavy side, not enough to show but enough to be sensitive about it. Her long dirty-blonde hair is tied back in a ponytail for maximum swooshy effect while fighting. She is a bit of a tomboy in her clothing choices, refusing to wear dresses or skirts and instead wearing a pair of khaki capris. She wears a short-sleeved hoodie over a white shirt with a flame emblem. On her wrists she wears spikey wristbands that are actually weights, which she wears for training purposes. When these are removed her strength and speed are increased greatly.
History: Laura Bonaparte was born in Delaware, but her parents moved down to Charlotte, North Carolina when she was six months old. Her grandparents on her father's side are from France, and moved here at the start of World War II. She is directly descended through them from Napoleon Bonaparte. Fred Bonaparte is her uncle.
She met Abby, her weapon, in kindergarden. The story their parents tell them is that when they came to pick Abby and Laura up, they found them avidly talking about bog bodies and human sacrifices. They bonded over their love of books and dinosaurs and have been inseparable ever since. Abby often acts as Laura's 'conscience', preventing her from getting into worse trouble than she normally would.
Laura decided early on that she was destined for greatness, and decided that the world would be a much better place if she was in charge. She entered Shibusen because it was the most efficient way to take out potential threats to and competiton for her rule. She pretty much just dragged Abby along.
Hobbies/Interests: Laura is one of those poor, accursed creatures: a penniless gamernerd. She'd sell her soul for a PS2. She takes video games very seriously and will often rant to poor Abby about how much of a jerk a certain boss is being (F&%$ING SAIX WITH YOUR F&%#ING HEALTH BAR!!! FREAKING DIE ALREADY!!!!) One of her more recent revelations was that if she treats everything like a video game with certain objectives (level up by passing grades and driver's ed) then everything'll seem more attainable.
She also loves to read, especially fantasy and sci-fi. She utterly rejects realistic fiction, claiming that books are for escaping into and not for talking about real life. She likes knowledge for knowledge's sake, but most of the stuff she knows won't do her any good in life (did you know that Marie Curie's notebooks are still to radioactive to handle without a rad suit?)
Powers: Laura's fighting style without a weapon evolved mainly for self-defense, since her inability to shut up got her into trouble a lot. She's decent at protecting herself, but if you mess with her friends she'll go right off on you and most likely kick your ass.
When she's resonating with her weapon, she can produce fire in a few different forms. For more information see Abby's profile.
Strengths: She's quite a people person, and can make most anyone come out of their shell. She has a way with adults, and ends up being a teacher's pet without doing most of the work. She is also fairly smart, and can strategize in the heat of battle. If angered, she can become abnormally strong. She has an excellent resonance with her weapon because of their long history together and rarely breaks it. She is also an encyclopedia of random useless facts.
Weaknesses: Laura is very lazy and absentminded to the point of forgetting basic necessities on a regular basis. She also thrives on chaos and disorganization. Her terror threshold is extremely low; she can't even watch a screamer video on Youtube without getting nightmares for weeks. She doesn't know when to keep her mouth shut, leading to her getting into a lot of trouble. Her anger is both a weakness and a strength, because she is easily led astray by her anger. She is also the type of person who would lose the world to save a friend.
