Other: Brianna isn't picky with what she wears, as long as she's not suffocating herself or freezing to death. You will always see her with wires trailing from her ears to her pocket, and often she can be observed typing lazily into her MacBook.
===POWERS===
Powers: Brianna has the ability to communicate with dead souls. Almost like telepathy, they can speak in her mind and she can speak back. They can’t read her thoughts as such, but they are more empathetic than most, being little but souls. There are three souls in particular who stick around Brianna, and they all seem to have a slight power to influence the weather;
Elijah: Elijah is a soul who died of a chronic heart failure at 86. He is very wise, mellow, and philosophical. He is quite content with his life and death. When Elijah was younger, he was quite proficient in various martial arts, though his expertise faded over the years. He had managed to teach Brianna a little of what he once knew, and though she is far from an expert, she can combine his teachings with her experience in street fighting to hold her own in a fistfight. He is like a grandfather to Callum and Brianna, and Rai treats him as an old and respected friend.
Rai: Rai was a thirty-year-old woman who was killed in a violent protest against animal cruelty. She was a passionate advocate for animal rights, refugees in third-world countries and many other good causes. Rai didn’t mind dying, but was upset that she could no longer make her voice and opinions heard in the world. She is constantly pressing Brianna to take part in protests and rallies, but Bree never does. Rai is a motherly figure to both Brianna and Callum, and always warns of the risks and prevents fights.
Callum: Brianna’s third friend committed suicide at 16. He was born in Steel City, and he hated his life. His father was a gang member, his mother was a drug addict, and for many years he was depressed. Eventually he decided to end it, jumping off the highest building he could find. Despite his short and grim life, Callum is cheerful and has a great sense of humor. He is probably the closest to Bree, and is like her brother and best friend all in one.

Strengths:Brianna is a patient, intelligent girl, and she prefers to think things through before taking any action. She is very perceptive as well, and tends to notice things others don't. Brianna is also very nimble.
Weaknesses:When she is upset, Bree tends to shut everything and everyone out, and is almost impossible to talk to. She can also be quite lazy at times. Oh, and she'll vehemently deny it, but a certain half-demon named Toji is another weakness of Brianna's.
Skills:Brianna, because of the street fights she’s survived and some advice from her ghostly friends, has some skills at fighting. She’s not a master of any styles, but she can hold her own in a fight.
In addition to this, Brianna is an amateur hacker.
Equipment:A 13-inch MacBook Air, a 64-gig iPhone full of expensive apps and a pair of the highest-quality earphones to match; they were a rare gift from her parents, left in her study when she moved in.
Habits/Quirks:Brianna can be very lazy, is almost always listening to music, and is very, very difficult to wake up when she's asleep.
Personality:Brianna is a practical, down-to-earth kind of girl. She doesn't bother with makeup or pretty clothes, but she's not quite a tomboy, either. She is interesting to talk to and has a pretty good sense of humor, but spend enough time around her and you'll notice she's a little guarded. She tends to skirt around personal subjects and hates getting in anyone else's way.
===PERSONAL BACKGROUND===
Family: Kiana Paynes (Mother), David Paynes (Father)
Place of Origin: Manhattan
Current City: Jump City
History: Brianna is the only child of two businesspeople who both work overseas. Instead of making her travel around with them, when she turned fifteen they left her a small apartment in Jump City with a few cookbooks, a job interview and an enrolment at Murakami High. She had to sink or swim, and despite her general lack of motivation, she survived. She got a job as a regular correspondent for a teen magazine, she taught herself how to cook, and she managed to keep her grades above a C. She had always heard the voices in her head, voices that didn’t come from anywhere, and she had figured out long ago that they were ghosts. Not long after that discovery, she realised she could talk back to them. Despite this, she never acted upon it, until a crazed half-robot attacked her school and she helped the leader of Titans East, Stone, fight him off. She was trained by Lance and recruited onto the team, and lived in Titans East Tower for a time before moving into the new and improved Titans Tower.
