Profile


Sophomore theater major with a minor in ... computer engineering. You know, in case she ever ends up just being tech crew ... it makes sense, right ... ? Pierce isn't so sure it makes sense, but it's what she's going with right now.

Skilled fencer, as evidenced by Justine's nickname. Pierce is one of the best foil fencers at her college; she's scholarshipped on it. She never panics during a bout, and strikes with deadly precision. However, she would never touch a real life sword, because those could hurt people, and she's not about that kind of thing.

Pierce is an avia mystic, but the chance of you knowing this is slim to none. Her wings are white feathery things nested behind her ears, too small to be of any real use in flight. They flare up in a fiery rage whenever Pierce gets too emotionally-heated - any cosmetic damage they sustain doesn't hurt her at all and slowly fades away with enough time. She typically hides the wings with a hand-me-down choker glamour - she wears turtlenecks and scarves to hide it. Pierce rarely loses her calm - but asking her to talk about herself in any detail will do you the honor of seeing her flustered and uncomfortable.
Soft-spoken, outspoken. Pierce is quiet and rarely speaks without thinking through her reasoning first. But her silence should not be mistaken for timidity; she has no problem pointing out flaws in a friend's argument, plans or morals when she feels it's warranted.

Generous, stubborn. Helping people comes naturally to pierce, to her dismay. It's a kneejerk reaction to help a friend with their bags or hold a door open. still, she doesn't mind helping and will assure her friends that she really doesn't mind - just let her lend a hand, okay?

Artistic, shy. Outside of her fencing, Pierce spends her time playing the cello in her college's string orchestra, doodling in the margins of her notebooks, and daydreaming of what life could be like if she was dating that girl from this season of the bachelor that everyone is fawning over. She'll never admit to that last one, though.

Private, lonely. Pierce rarely shares her true self with others but wishes she felt more comfortable doing it. She worries that she's bothersome to the few people who do truly understand her because of how much time she spends venting to them.
737840 Colin, her identical twin brother. The family joke is that they're exact opposites: Colin is extremely Type A whereas Justine is a classic Type B. They get along well despite their many differences - the twins spend a few hours every week sparring together, and many more hanging out with their shared friend group.
494721 Valentine, her best friend! After meeting freshman year they became roommates in Sophomore year. They spend almost every second together, often geeking out over their love for theater. Val is one of the few people outside of Pierce's family who know she's a mystic, and diligently guards that secret.
494707 Xavier, who Pierce ... tolerates? He's Colin's roommate and Val's best friend from high school; the boy is a bit rambunctious, rude, and ... rudimentary for Pierce's taste, but the other two adore him, so she's content to play nice and deal with his attitude. And his messes.
