Lillian
Gia Norris: Daughter of Archangel Gabriel
Nicknames: Lily, Lil
Powers: Power over
earth, psychic and empathic powers
Weapon: Ax
Special Skills: Her sports
background makes her stronger, more agile, and faster than even her other
Demi-Angel friends.
Physical Appearance: Lily is the
tallest girl of the group and just under six feet, with an average build that
consists of a lot of muscle because of her sport background. Lily loves her
height because it gives her a greater advantage in many of the sports she
plays, but she takes care not to make Marissa feel bad because she is so much
taller. Lily has long dark hair that is usually up in a ponytail so it stays
out of her way while she is playing sports. She has penetrating bright blue
eyes that really pop, and gives her face a very gentle look. She, like Marissa,
has never been a thin person but because of her background in sports it never
bothered her like it bothered her best friend. Lily is a bit of a tomboy, and
has always been “one of the guys” in her appearance as well as attitude. Her
favorite feature is her hair which she takes great pride in and has never even
considered cutting excessive amounts of her hair off.
Personality: Lily’s Zodiac
sign is Scorpio and she lives up to most of the traits associated with her
sign. Scorpio’s are often called the “old souls” of the Zodiac and Lily is definitely
one, she is often considered the mother of the group. Intense is probably the
best way to describe Lily, who brings passion to everything she does. On the
dark side she can also be very resentful and jealous as is seen in her
relationship with Penny. Lily has a strong desire to triumph which really helps
her in competitions. She has a strong desire to win, and when she doesn’t she
can really explode. Lily usually has the appearance of being the most in control
of all her friends, but an unruly sea hides underneath just waiting to break
free. When Lily does lose her temper she makes even Marissa look nice and
sweet.
Lily has lived with her grandparents since her mother died when she was
little. Her mother’s death definitely hardened Lily to those around her and it
takes Lily a long time to like people, and even longer to consider them
friends. When she is afraid or worried about something, she often cuts herself
off from those around her to protect herself from getting hurt, and so others
can’t see her weakness. Lily is the most stubborn member of the group liking to
make her own decisions in her own sweet time and Lily’s mind is made up however
the chances of changing it are slim to none. Another flaw that can affect her
opinion of others is that she has a hard time forgiving the faults that she
sees in others. Unlike her best friend she has a hard time forgiving people in
general, Lily’s good opinion once lost is lost forever. The main reason for
this is so that Lily can avoid looking at her own shortcomings, and can avoid
working on fixing her own problems. Lily would rather fix everyone else then
look at her own issues.
Sports and physical activity have always come very naturally to Lily,
which is how she affords college. She is there on a volleyball scholarship and
she takes her training very seriously. She excels at almost every sport but
finds the more physically demanding ones to be her favorite sports. Often
during high school Lily would play sports with the boys because the girls didn’t
play hard enough for her. Having mother like qualities and intensity that gives
her amazing self control Lily is the Psychology major of the group. She is fascinated
by people and doing meaningful things to help make their lives better.
Relationships
Marissa: Lily did not
have any friends before she met Marissa West and even after she and Marissa
became close Lily found it difficult to befriend any of Marissa’s other
friends. Lily wouldn’t lose Marissa for the world, and Marissa is the only
person Lily truly trusts other than her grandparents. Lily finds Marissa’s school
abilities helpful to her because bookwork is something that she has never been
the best at. On the flip side Lily acts like a trainer to Marissa who sometimes
needs a kick in the ass to do things physically like working out and trying to
at least be a little active. Lily is the quieter one of the two because she
likes to be comfortable around people before she really opens up to them. Yet
even while she is seemingly quiet her mind is always turning and her brain is
always working which make her and Marissa very similar. Lily is also close to
Eli West, Marissa’s older brother, being an only child living with grandparents
Lily missed having any kind of sibling figure so when she and Marissa got close
Eli sort of adopted Lily as his sister as well.
Penny: The person Lily
has the hardest time getting along with is definitely Penny. From the moment
she first saw Penny Lily judged her a little too harshly referring to her as “Boho
Barbie” Lily’s main issue with Penny is her shallowness; Lily thinks that the
youngest member of their group only cares about boys, and clothes, and her
looks. When she and Penny actually do get along it seems as if the whole world
could be perfectly at peace but those moments are rare. Throughout their first
year in college it is a struggle for Lily to even like Penny let alone trust
them at all. Yet when something happens that changes Penny’s whole world Lily
is the one who helps her deal with it the best while their other friends are at
a slight loss as to what to do. Eventually Lily and Penny form a close, albeit
unconventional bond that also consists of lots of disagreements but is rooted
in love…but don’t tell anyone.
Z.J.: Lily and Z.J.
get along very well even if Lily does like to tease the only male member of
their group. Lily teases Z.J. because being a tomboy and playing sports with
boys she got used to their joking and noticed it as a form of communication.
Lily doesn’t quite understand that Z.J. isn’t the same kind of guy she is used to
hanging around with and so he doesn’t understand the reasons Lily makes fun of
him. Z.J. was the first person after Marissa and Eli to gain Lily’s trust, Lily
likes the fact that even if she makes fun of him Z.J. will just go with it and play
along. She admires the fact that Z.J. can laugh at himself because that is
something she cannot do. She likes that Z.J. takes things as they come, and is
so open to letting life happen to him. They are both very similar when it comes
to their emotions as well; both Lily and Z.J. like to keep their emotions in
check and under lock and key, not because they are trying to keep anyone out,
but because they found they are less likely to get hurt when they do so.
