Other skills and talents:
Convincing (she may lie, but she has learned to make them sound like a truth. People are less likely to doubt her.)
Personality:
Esperanza is naturally caring and empathic, though her empathy ability has tended to overshadow the natural empathy to the point that one can't actually tell it is there anymore. She has a caring heart and a tendency to wear her emotions so others can see them.
For the sake of being in council she tries to be stoic and not show he emotions, key word there is tries. She is a good leader though, knowing fairly well what the opinion of the creator would be from being in her job for a while and from being able to read the creator, though she tries to avoid this. The creator's mind is very overpowering to her.
Esperanza can be stubborn, but is also able to see both sides of a situation and see the good in the other and the bad in her own. She merely tries to pick the one that has the best possible outcome. Esperanza tries to remain positive about situations, knowing that someone must and taking the job upon herself.
Background/History:
Esperanza was was an experiment by the creators, one they are very pleased with. To begin with Esperanza was born 160 years ago in Argentina, a human girl destined for greater things than she could know. She was the younger twin, her sister Julieta the older one. Born into a Spanish speaking family it was her native language and the one she spoke through her entire human life.
The start of her life was very normal. Esperanza was raised just like any normal human, which is technically because she was human. As a human she was always naturally empathic. She was good at telling how people felt, good at guessing from the way they were acting and speaking. It set her apart as a child, made her someone both desired by some as a confidant and despised by others for being nosy as they saw it. As a child it gained her many friends that she kept through her teens and into early adulthood.
That was when things changed. In a single, disastrous night when Julieta and Esperanza were home from their individual lives working in other cities their house burned to the ground while they were sleeping. It was then the creator decided to try turning a human into an angel. Esperanza was given a new life and her natural empathy was strengthened to the point of being a much more useful tool.
At first she was just set among the people, in a different place and under a different name, to help the emotionally hurting. As she earned favor in the eyes of the creator she was eventually promoted to the position she now holds and has for a few decades since the death of the previous representative. She still continues to help out in the human world. Every so often she will move where she is and pick up a new alias to live under, to hide the fact that she never ages. Her current alias is Danielle Ortiz.
Sample RP:
Esperanza put on her best face and stepped out into the world, exiting the living place registered to Danielle Carmen Ortiz, a person who had only existed for a few years now. Dani was supposedly in her early 20s and was working at a local bar. She was the girl with the warm, Spanish accent. The one everyone came to with their sad stories or their victories, knowing she'd feel their hurt or celebrate their joy with them.
There was a reason for this. Dani was truly Esperanza under her newest guise to live in the world of humans, helping where she could. Esperanza truly could feel their pain or joy due to her empathy, so long as they stayed in the same room as her. She was, in all actuality, an angel who had lived the first 20 some years of her life as a human and had lived another roughly 140 years since that as an angel.
The bar was where she was headed now. It was about the time people would be getting done with their own jobs and that meant they'd need more help, thus it was time for Dani to start her day. Time for me to make the world a better place, even if it's only a little change. A small change makes all the difference.
