Character: Toni Ipres
Series: Hanna Is Not A Boy's Name
Age: Early 20s
Job: Camp Bloodhound
Canon: Sometimes, when you've woken up to discover you have no idea why you're a zombie, or when you find your apartment invaded by the sassiest bat, you need someone with paranormal experience. Someone capable and competent -- unfortunately, Hanna Cross (who surprisingly is not a girl!) is neither of those things, but he makes up for it with eagerness, optimism, and a hammer. Also an accidental posse including a vampire, a half-selkie, and a werewolf, among others.
Toni is a woman who can back up her bark with some bite. She's clever and quick -- also, she’s a werewolf. Though until her talisman gets fixed, she can only transform into her full form during the full moon (though her lesser blue puppy form is adorable.) Toni is cheerful and outgoing, and with her bright blue mohawk and lipstick, she isn’t really afraid of attracting stares. She’s passionate and driven when it comes to both her art and her friends; she may be stubborn at times, but she’s incredibly loyal, and always willing to put up a fight.
Sample Post:
Um, Madam Director? Do not walk away from me! Oh, no, the Director definitely wasn’t decaying. Well, maybe you can help me instead. Hi, I’m Toni! I think there's been a biiit of a mistake here. Or just a misunderstanding! See, when I accepted this job, as "Camp Bloodhound" I thought "nosing around" meant something more fun, more... detective-like! You know, going around, collecting clues, solving this murder people were talking about. I didn't think it meant handing me endless piles of really gross stuff and expecting me to find out who or where they came from. Speaking of where things came from, those clothes clearly haven’t been washed in this decade, so you need to move them out of here before the stench knocks someone out.
Okay! As I was saying, even if I did sign up to track people by scent for the next eight weeks -- it is eight right? It kind of looked like it was the infinity symbol, but I'm guessing that was a printer
error. -- anyway, even if I did agree to track lost campers, which by the way should not involve me sticking my nose into stuff this nasty, it's a really ineffective system for a person to sniff things out. I mean, I’m guessing you lose kids in the cornfields a lot here if you have to hire someone specialized, but uh... wouldn’t organizing search parties be better? Or getting real bloodhounds. Just a thought.
I'm not trying to sound ungrateful! I’m just saying the Director's barking up the wrong tree with this --oh, that was terrible. --Er, nevermind, ignore that. I’m just saying that maybe I could -- actually no, I am going to do something else here. Something with less chewed up shoes, less nasty gym socks, and less questionable looking boxers. On the list of things I’m willing to do for cash, sticking my nose in someone's "business" doesn't even make it into the top thousand.
Oh, I've got an idea! I'll just work on that murder mystery! I actually have some experience in doing that. Mr. Cross could put in a good recommendation for me. So uh... think you can help me sort this out? Oh, you're... literally throwing me a bone. Creepy, but kind of cute -- not for any particular reason! Just cute!
