Meet Diana Hansen. She's your typical teenager: hates school, bickers with her sister, and tries to circumvent the rules. Oh, and she's also a Keeper.
What is a Keeper? Keeper's close holes in the world caused by bad events. They can manipulate possibilities. Diana, as the younger sister of a Keeper, is a very strong Keeper. Since she's the only younger sibling of a Keeper in the world, she's the most powerful Keeper in the world. Keeper's have a lot of powers that allow them to have control over their world. They also always have the tools they need, even if it's by accident.
Who is Diana? Like I said, she's a Keeper. She's also of average height with dark hair and eyes and a smile that makes people back away. She's not friendly and she doesn't care about Bystanders (or people she thinks are Bystanders). She and Hell have an odd relationship.

Whats a Bystander? A Bystander is someone who is not a Keeper or a Cousin or has never had any contact with the supernatural world. For a variety of reasons, at Fandom High most students will not be considered Bystanders. If you want your character to be a Bystander, leave a comment in this post. Bystanders cannot have powers of their own or have regular interaction with the supernatural. A good example of someone who could be a Bystander is Claudia Kishi. A bad example is Dean Winchester.
I am going with the assumption that NO Fandom High characters are Bystanders since there is just so much magic and weird stuff around that everyone realizes that it's real. However, there are a lot of new kids who might take a while to believe in magic, etc. Like I said, if you want your character to be a Bystander, leave a comment.
Bystanders can not lie to Keepers. (Keepers can not lie at all. ETA: But they can mislead.) Diana will also have no problem Jedi mind-tricking Bystanders. I, as a player, will NEVER do this without the explicit permission of the player. She can not read minds. She can just make people forget they saw something weird, or get people to do things for her. Diana can not do anything evil, though. If you have a problem with this, leave a comment in the other thread and I will very carefully avoid any situations where Diana might mind-wammy.
So what are Diana's powers? Diana's powers are very hard to explain, so instead I'm just going to give a list of examples.
Unlike the books, none of Diana's "spells" will be permanent. It will be completely up to you to decide how long the effects last, but I am going to put an unofficial limit of 24 hours. If there is something you want me to do to your character, please, contact me.
These will occur fairly often:
1. "Nuts!" Diana exclaimed. A handful of nuts rolled across the floor.
2. Diana was drawing patterns on the frost. Candy canes began to dance. They used to be a fence.
3. Diana had a chat with a painting about a young man who stayed in the room.
4. Diana threw a smile at her sister. Her sister threw it back. Their mother waited until sparks died down before snapping at them.
These would occur only with player permission or for plot reasons:
1. Diana needed to get in to see a priest. She manipulated the mind of the housekeeper to let her in. - This will generally never happen unless you specifically ask..
2. Something bad happened and a hole was torn in the fabric of whatever. Diana repaired the hole. - If your character starts a fight or does something "bad" and you want to bring Diana in, please contact me.
3. Diana graffitied John <3 Terri on a phone booth. John and Terrie proclaimed their love to each other as the music swelled. Then the gym teacher confiscated the boom box. - If you want something like this to happen for your characters, contact me.
4. Diana was told to put up a large snowflake in the gym for a dance. She made it capture people's good vibes and sprinkle them back down as snow.
5. Diana turned an angel into a cat. See the section on her cat.
6. There was a thing with a volcano but I doubt it occuring on campus.
My Huge Request Diana comes from a very literal canon. Anything that happens in narrative or she says has the potential to actually happen. If I miss something, feel free to either a. run with it or b. contact me to have me change it. So if I say that Diana smiled witheringly at Claudia, Claudia's player can either have Claudia shrink a few feet for a few minutes or she can contact me to have me re-write the comment.
Samuel He's a cat who used to be an angel. He has no special powers, but he does have slight traces of Higher Knowledge. It's usually along the lines of how fast cars go. He also talks like a regular person. In other words, everyone can understand and hear him and it does not sound like meowing.
