Family:
Mother: Aideen McLaughlin
Father: Unknown

History: Naomi was born in Arizona, but her mother had a job where she traveled a lot. A life of traveling wasn't good for a baby girl, so she finally settled down where she used to live: A reasonably populated town in New Hampshire. Her childhood wasn't too terrible. She never knew who her father was, but her mother always said that he ditched them when he found out she was pregnant. Aside from the gaping hole in her life, Naomi lived a relatively good life. She did well in school, learned some talents, but she also gained a lot of weight, especially after she met her wisp, Natasha. Naomi didn't even realize she had any supernatural powers from the wisp until her freshman year of high school. One of the popular girls thought it would be a funny prank to trip the fat girl. When they did that, she tumbled straight into her highschool crush, and crashed straight through the wall. She tried not to think too much about it, since the whole event was incredibly embarrassing, and they said that the wall was old and worn down, but about a year later, she was contacted by scouts from Hawthorne Academy. Once both Naomi and her mother were told exactly what she was, her mother thought it would be a good experience to harness these strange powers. However, being in a unfamiliar place worried Naomi, and she was worried that she would't actually belong or fit in there.

Physical Appearance: The first thing anyone would notice about Naomi is that she is extremely fat. Not morbidly obese, but still very chubby. Her belly is easily her largest feature, and she always has trouble covering it up. She could hold it with both hands and just barely have her hands full. Her hips and thighs are also wide and fatty, but not to the extent of her belly. Compared to the rest of her body, her breasts are relatively small, but they still are impressively sized. At 5'2", Naomi is also a bit on the short side. She has a bit fair skin, and also bright orange hair that goes to her shoulders. Most of Naomi's clothes couldn't completly cover her belly. She prefers wearing a t-shirt and a matching skirt, but she feels slightly embarrassed having her midsection showing. All her parts have some stretchy elastic, so it's easier for her to wear. When she's feeling extra shy, she wears a sweater that could actually cover her belly. It gets a little too easy for Naomi to overheat in it, though.

Personality: Naomi is not a very social girl. She's very shy, insecure, and gets easily spooked. She usually prefers to be alone, but if she allows people to get close, she's actually very sweet. What she lacks in social skills, she makes up for in brains. All the alone time she takes allowed her to excel in school, and in general, she's a very smart girl. The few times she really comes out of her shell is for things she's truly passionate about, like cooking, and her favorite books and shows.

Wisp: Naomi met her wisp at about thirteen years old. She named it Natasha... partly because she couldn't come up with a better name. Her hyperactive personality overwhelmed Naomi at first, but what really allowed them to bond was their love for food. Since Natasha can't actually eat food, she uses her bond with Naomi to taste her favorite foods. Since then, Naomi has been trying all sorts of food that would Natasha happy. And... it's been showing. Luckily, Naomi doesn't mind her weight gain too much. She grew to love Natasha's perpetually excited demeanor.

Wisp Class: Matter

Powers: Invulnerability. Naomi can't get hurt by most attacks, and she can break through most solid objects. Neither Natasha or Naomi knew about this power for about two years, until Naomi accidentially flattened her crush. Luckily, no one was badly hurt. However, only her outer body is invulnerable. She still needs to breathe, and she can still get a bad case of food poisoning.

Weakness: Naomi's biggest weakness is her own timid personality. She's very easily scared, and she's more likely to run from a confrontation. The one thing that can really cripple her is bringing up her shortcomings. (ESPECIALLY her weight...)

Talents: The one thing that Naomi is truly best at is cooking. She had to learn quickly, to appease her hyperactive food-loving wisp. Her food is easily some of the best things you will ever eat, especially her favorite food... pepperoni pizza.

Other: Naomi has a bit of a nerdy side she likes to keep secret. She's a bit of an anime fan. Her two favorites are Lonely Blade and Breakfast With Sister. (And both of those are made up, so don't go looking. tongue

) As stated many times before, Naomi also likes food, which is why she's... well rounded. Bringing up the fact that this is a fat girl cliche, is one of the many things that will embarrass her... However, her all time favorite food is pizza. She loves cooking it, and she loves eating it. Her favorite toppings are pepperoni, but she's not picky. Just make sure you keep an eye on the pizza if you're sharing with her. It could easily be gone the next moment...
