" Just because I have breasts doesn't mean I have magical power over infants!"
LIKES. anthropology, sciences, reading
DISLIKES. pointless conversations, cooked fruit, getting too close to some people
STRENGTHS. Intelligence, perceptions, annalistic mind
WEAKNESSES. Lack of social skills (though she is able to hold conversations), lack of knowledge about modern-day trends, unwillingness to show deep emotions
HABITS/QUIRKS. verboseness when informing people of something (usually when she’s nervous or desperate to get a point across), remaining silent when in thought (which happens often, as opposed to saying her ideas aloud)
FEARS. getting hurt by someone (emotionally), losing her powers, losing control of her life and what happens in it
SECRETS. She has had many partners in her life, but has recently stopped because it’s become a hassle.
FULL PERSONALITY. Although she is an expert in her field, Bentley is socially awkward and has limited knowledge about pop culture. She finds it hard to relate to others, but most of the time that doesn’t stop her inserting herself in conversations among people she knows. Rather sardonic, with a sharp wit and practical logic—of which she uses in her everyday life—she tries to blend in, but finds it hard when she uses oversized words, especially in her classes. In terms of her knowledge of pop culture, her coworkers like to make an obvious reference, to which she cannot relate, and she is very excited on the rare occasion when she does understand them.
Despite her outward professional appearance, Temperance does have a personality. She can come across as hard hearted sometimes, but in truth she has very sensitive emotional wiring, though she doesn’t like to show that her feathers have been ruffled. She finds comfort and welcoming in her group of equally brilliant colleagues, and thinks of the schools for the gifted as a second home.[/color][/font]

FULL HISTORY. Her mother died when she was four, and she hasn’t talked about it since.
Her father has been a supportive source of encouragement, and has educated her thoroughly in ways of science and psychology. He also put her through school, in which she studied forensic anthropology, philosophy, and computers. She worked as a forensic anthropologist for two years after graduating college and it was there that she discovered she was more than human.
The first signs, of course, had been coming since she was a child. Her superior intellect and ability to absorb information and create new information when she was young was uncanny, and didn’t go unnoticed by her father. Still, he chose to remain neutral until if or when more signs began to show. None did until she was about eighteen.
After reluctantly quitting her job, Temperance applied to become a teacher at Dolce Veleno.
