It essentially means her body muscles naturally move faster than others'. For example if she sees a fist coming her way she can counter it before normal people could.

Personality: Pleasant and polite, Athena always puts manners first and is very big on common courtesy (though she doesn't expect it from others). Despite all this she can be quite zany (especially due to her love of experiencing new things) and energetic yet still remains composed even in the strangest or goofiest of circumstances. She has a streak of mischief running through her but often her idea of mischief is very tame or odd such as breaking curfews or just winding up short-tempered people. Depsite being quite a friendly person Athena has a hard time keeping friends; making them is no problem, but she rarely keeps them because they usually find her... well, a bit strange. There is no doubt about her intelligence; she is incredibly clever even if only way it comes out is unconventional. In many ways Athena is a child who still gets pleased over the simple things; her emotions are rather stunted so she feels like she often has to say when she's angry or upset. she especially doesn't understand crying as she has never cried in her life. Silly tastes and pranks aside, Athena comes across as very mature despite her age probably due to her overall manners and intelligence.


Backstory: Athena was born into a rather quiet but hardworking family that always valued the realistic things in life rather than the creative. She was actually very bright and was even able to read at the tender age of three; her parents had high hopes and reinforced the idea that the most important thing in life was to get a good job and be an adult. She couldn't pursue hobbies because they would distract her and her parents believed it was not realistic to expect a career out of such a thing. But as long as she had their support she was fine - with every good grade she got compliments and really that's all she ever wanted. But for some reason, inixplicably, her grades began dropping and her heart fell; she was disgusted with herself and buried herself more and more in her studies and somehow it just made her studies worse. It was due to a lack of sleep, food and generally pushing herself too hard but her mind couldn't comprehend it. The more her grades dropped, the more disappointed her teachers and parents were in her and the more disappointed she became too.

Eventually her stress became so bad that she began to see things; she apologized to people who weren't there, got scared by things she saw in reflections and . In one such delusion, Athena saw a beautiful field of daisies and wanting to go to such an innocent and pleasant place she walked towards them. The closer she got to them though the further they went away and as she began chasing after them she found herself brought back to reality in the most painful stark way. This delusion all took place on a nearby street and as she chased after the daisy field she was actually running into the road and was hit by a truck. Four days of intense emotion passed until she woke up.

Her parents were in tears, her father especially. He told her that he they didn't mean to push her so hard and that she should take some time out to just relax and be a normal girl her age. It was hard; to be honest, she'd barely heard of all the actors or bands the normal girls her age talked about and she was genuinely a lot smarter than a lot of them. Combined with the rumours already there of her being a bit psycho and her small strange tendencies Athena found it hard to fit in. Instead she spent a lot of her time reading in the library and began to discover something about herself. Books told her the one thing she'd wanted to hear her entire life.

"You don't have to be like them."
"You don't have to be normal."
"You cannot please the world so just please yourself."


And she did. It was a slow process and she went through many interests but slowly but surely she was gaining back some of her precious childhood. Athena found several hobbies and gradually became more energetic. She was especially fond of writing; her emotions were somewhat stunted and writing was a good way of expressing herself. She actually received quite a bit of popularity with her paranormal mystery stories and recently wrote something a little different; a more dramatic (but still supernatural) story called 'Softly, The Spirits Whisper' with signs of an overarching plotline and budding romance which has since become her big hit (though most people don't know her as the author due to her pen name) which is quite proud of. But lacking any real material for a sequel she began to become a bit too... well, unpredictable and began making a few enemies at school. Thankfully she never seemed that hurt from the fights (she told her parents she was just "very good at dodging") and her parents came to the decision that the school and her just weren't gelling and that she needed a new enviroment. She did homeschooling for years and became shut out to the public but her parents eventually knew she needed to get back out there. She was hesitant - afraid of the world but agreed for the sake of new material.

Athena requested to choose the school herself and reassured them that she would pick a fine one. And upon seeing Tantei Academy she knew it was the one for her; something interesting that would teach her new exciting things as well as a breeding ground for new ideas. With their blessing, she set off and here she is now.


Relations:
She's the half sister of a certain Agent Dice Valente Capela whom she affectionately calls "uncle" despite his protests.

:bulletpink: Jayce Anderson :bulletpink:
Childhood Friend
"Jayce and I are super close! Me, him and Randa all grew up together so it's natural. He's a really funny guy and smart too! But I um... kinda hate him when his goggles are off. I think him and Randa would be really cute together~"

:bulletpink: Randa Muna :bulletpink:
Childhood Friend
"Randa is a precious friend of mine even though she can be so serious! Or maybe I'm too lax, haha. Either way, she's really cool and I admire her for being so tough, it must be so hard being blind. I wonder when her Jayce will get together, hm~"

:bulletpink: Adalia Klein :bulletpink:
"You mean Lia, right? Ahhh, Lia's so cute!~ She's like a little princess, so polite, too! I wish we were in the same close but we're officially best friends so it's okay."

:bulletpink: Takumi Hinato :bulletpink:
"He's really quiet but he doesn't seem to be mean. I think he's shy so I want to try befriending him. I wonder how I can have a good talk with him?"

:bulletpink: Yuvix Gi :bulletpink:
"I don't think she worries too much about how others see her - it's good! She's fun to be around! But she says she doesn't get along with boys... seems mysterious. Isn't she always with Hinato? Maybe I should investigate!"

:bulletpink: June Anderson :bulletpink:
"J... Jayce's missing sister. She seems really nice, though! She gets a bit timid 'round Jayce (is it 'cause he's tall?) but we get along well. She's really good friends with Lia, too."

:bulletpink: Kouhei Kurosaki :bulletpink:
"He's a very cool detective! It's hard not to admire him, he has so much confidence. It's hard to believe he's younger, haha. I think we'll be good friends."

:bulletpink: Seria Benedetti :bulletpink:
"My paranormal pal and ghost hunting buddy!~ I think me and Seria hit it off immediately and we'll definitely be good friends. She's fun to be around!"

:bulletpink: Benji Spike :bulletpink:
"Is it me or does he seem a bit timid? Well, that's okay too. He seems like a nice guy though so I'm sure we'll get along just fine!"

:bulletpink: René "Remi" McKinley :bulletpink:
"She's so nice~ And her ability's so cool too! I really like Remi a lot, she seems like a very happy and charming person! I bet she'll make lots of friends."

Additional Info:
:bulletblue: Her mother is called Camille and her father is Ellery. She recently gained a baby sister whose name is Ariadne. Her father owns a newspaper and her mother is a science teacher (this probably added to Athena's own love of forensics science).
:bulletblue: Her pen name is Yvie Dance. Yes it's an intentional pun for 'evidence' that's just how she is.
:bulletblue: She's currently in the middle of writing a sequel (her beta name for it is "Faded Footprints") but is often plagued with "writer's block". She has a small book filled with information about it that she sometimes can be seen jotting things into.
:bulletblue: Loves to ship her friends and matchmake. She's especially fond of pairing together opposites, childhood friends and rivals.
:bulletblue: She is both factual and a lover of the supernatural so she often looks for ways to prove ghosts existence in the real world. She wants to design a spray that will detect ectoplasm one day. She's always looking for paranormal-loving buddies to bounce ideas off of.
:bulletblue: She can play the piano but cannot play a full song as she has trouble following notes.
:bulletblue: And although she likes the piano she much prefers playing her accordian.
:bulletblue: She is a terrible cook. She is too methodical in making things and puts ingredients together that do not match based on other (probably healthier) principles. Expect some coffee and orange juice in the morning and some cinnamon and mint (Cinnamint! One of her faves!) cod for lunch.
:bulletblue: Will pull all-nighters if it's for her studies but otherwise gets a nice early bedtime.
:bulletblue: Athena is undoubtedly very smart but cannot teach to save her life. She has too much trouble translating her thoughts into a language others can understand.
:bulletblue: The two keys around her neck unlock important things so she never takes them off. One key unlocks her story drafting booklet and the other unlocks a little mysterious jewelled box she owns.
:bulletblue: Her hair is dyed. After the accident it turned white and she felt concious of it due to kids calling her grandma. She admits this readily now but now just likes the blue colour better.
:bulletblue: Is far-sighted and wears glasses when reading or concentrating.
:bulletblue: Can speak French, Japanese and Swahili. Do not ask why she learned Swahili - there is little reason to be found.
