History

(( This is all publicly available information; Clara has made no attempts to hide her past. ))

Planting a seed

Jamie Phillips was insane, most agree on that. But she knew what she wanted: A child who was special. After careful planning, she decided the father of her child should be a plant elemental. A summoning ritual was performed, but even then direct interference of the gods is all that allowed Clara's conception to occur. 9 months later, Clara was born.

Early years

Clara never fit in growing up. The other children all saw her differences. Day after day, Clara came home from daycare in tears. Children inherently have stronger magic than adults, and with Clara's already inherent ability for magic, something was bound to happen. It did. At age 4, Clara's mom noticed Clara talking when no one was there. Clara started to talk about her friend "Squeaky." Of course, everyone thought Squeaky was an imaginary friend. Technically, they were right. At first. As Clara grew to love her friend more and more, there began to be unexplained occurrences around the house. Cookies went missing that Clara couldn't have possibly reached. And every day, Clara was happier than the day before. Then one day disaster struck. One of the boys at school decided to pick on the "freak" a little too much. Of course, Tommy Andreas didn't grow poisonous thorns when they were grappling; Clara did. The Phillips moved to the Rogue Isles when a jury decided Clara was innocent on the grounds that she couldn't control what she had done, and the media circus involving locking up a 8-year old girl wasn't worth the trouble. The neighbors, on the other hand, had torches & pitchforks ready when Jamie & Clara got home. Seeing the mob, Jamie turned the car around, telling Clara that they couldn't go home...They could never go home. Clara, of course, was horrified. What of her friend of four years? There were still so many stories to be told, dreams to be dreamed, so much fun to be had. Clara didn't stop crying for a month and a half after they arrived in the new home in Mercy Island, and even after that, it would be more than 15 years before she smiled again.

Coming to bloom

After the incident, Clara's plant-like nature became more and more pronounced. She started setting down roots to feed and to get water. Her skin greened and grew to a rough, bark-like substance. These changes and others caused her to separate more from society as people continued to turn from her.

Present Day

Since coming to the Rogue Isles, Clara has grown closer to her father's side of the family, growing and expanding her knowledge and control of the plant world. She still holds close ties to her mother, though, giving her a soft spot towards the "meatsacks" she talks of so negatively. Clara can often be seen in Pocket D, usually by her friends Viperan & Sabi Star. In fact, they introduced her to a little blue impish-looking creature. A creature who seemed more & more familiar as time went by. Finally, Clara put 2 & 2 together, and realized that somehow, she was back with Squeaky again.

Personality

Sabi Star & Viperan

Clara looks at Sabi Star & Viperan as her closest friends. Without them around, Clara tends to be extremely shy and reserved, and will leave if there is too large of a group around. With her (though she'd never admit they were) security blankets around, she tends toward being much more open and inviting.
