Biography:
Amber Hernandez is an immortal who is trying to make her eternal life into her own personal oyster. Her story chronicles her life throughout the years as she finds love, encounters supernatural mysteries, and takes down a god somewhere along the way. Immortality treats Amber's body like a broken stopwatch, stuck at a specific point. Amber's outward and inward physical appearances at the moment of drinking the immortality potion becomes her "default", and after she gets injured or dies, she will always return to that point. So any scrapes or bruises Amber might have had when she drank the thing will never fade, but she can't get new lasting injuries either. The time taken to recover from a death/injury is directly proportional to how messy/extreme the injury or death is. If she's stabbed once, it might take less than a minute to heal right up, but if she's burned badly, it could take up to thirty minutes/an hour to heal up fully. A clean break in a bone would obviously heal faster than a more messy one, and so on and so forth. One thing is certain, though. Amber definitely isn't impervious to pain. She feels every injury she gets. Maybe once she lives for longer, she'll be able to tune the pain out, but she's not there yet. Even if she's been shot tens of times, she's still unable to get used to it.

No era is preferred over the other, but no matter who you end up drawing, please at least glance at the respective bios per era below.

Year 0: The Researcher

Amber is a 21 year old senior at Louisiana's Northwestern State University. She's a witch who specializes in potions, and thus, she's trying to find out her next big experiment. A chance find in a school library book is just what she needs to kickstart the next chapter of her life, even if it may break some of the bonds she's made along the way. She just didn't expect something as seemingly simple as immortal life to end up being this complex.

Year 6: The Eternal Witch

Amber, now 27, is tired of being lonely in her eternity. Thus, she seeks out another immortal at the University of Hartford in Connecticut. She enrolls as a graduate student, finding herself face to face with Nolan Campanella once more. Due to not being recognized by the other immortal, Amber begins yet another experiment. This one causes things to begin spiraling out of control for her.

Year 9: The Detective

Moving to Boston, Massachusetts means that Amber has another oyster to make her own. She decides to spend her time researching a cult that has been rumored to be based in the area. In typical Amber fashion, though, she ends up finding out too much, and she ends up at the wrong end of the cult's ire. Not that she minds. She just wishes that her partner in solving crime, Cyrus Ortiz, was a little less vocal about hating her.
