RENNY KATRIN ANDERSON
the basics
full name ♦ Renata Katrin Anderson nicknames ♦ Ren/Renny age ♦ thirty-two birthday ♦ May 24, 1987 occupation ♦ Unemployed (former sniper for USMC) school ♦ Cleveland High School (Portland, OR) (no 'special' schooling) species ♦ human ability/power ♦ sharpshooter how the ability works ♦ Renny's ability is more subtle than most superpowered humans. It's a passive ability, in that it's never really off. Given any projectile, Renny can use it and hit her target every time. With her powers being as unobtrusive as Renny's powers are, she really doesn't deal with any poor side effects. gender ♦ female [she/hers] sexuality ♦ pansexual
the appearance
face claim ♦ Autumn Ivy height and weight ♦ 6'1" 180lbs of pure gainz identifying features ♦ tons of tattoos - now that she's out of the military they've extended on to her hands and neck. She's also opted for the eyebrow cut out as a fashion statement. overall appearance ♦ Renny is a tall and large woman. Her silhouette is akin to that of a Russian powerlifter and a French model having a love child. Curves in all the right places and those places also include biceps and quads. She dresses in ways to accent both of those features, which usually means pretty little clothing. Tight shirts to show off her abs, short shorts that show off her perfectly sculpted legs.
Her eyes are a bright green, usually darkly lined with liner. Her hair is short cropped, and ever since leaving the military she has been changing the color of it almost monthly. Renny's skin has warm undertones, but she isn't particularly tan, nor excessively pale. She's seen enough sunlight, but definitely has tan lines from her time spent in a uniform.
the personality
likes ♦ tattoos&piercings, good gym partners, video games, comic books, pole dancing/workouts, energy drinks/coffee dislikes ♦ loud noises, sand, uniforms, close toed shoes strengths ♦ besides her swole muscles? self confidence through the roof weaknesses ♦ quick to judge, stubborn, unyielding, undiagnosed PTSD dreams ♦ being a professional gamer fears ♦ dentists, military medical practices, nuclear war overall personality ♦ If one were to imagine a meme in human form, it would be Renny Anderson. She's a funny person, a lot of her humor comes off very dark and it is suspected she uses it as a form of coping with the atrocities she's been a part of. Now that she's out of the military Renny has metaphorically let her hair down and she's absolutely running with this newfound freedom. Being a part of the military and doing what she did has definitely instilled a sense of pride and confidence - now that she's out that translates to not giving a flying f*** about what anyone thinks of her. She's grown past the insecurities of her childhood, Renny no longer is worried what others think of her appearance or her brazen attitude.
the history
father ♦ Steffan Anderson, 60 (would be 72 today), deceased mother ♦ Brigitte Jordan, 54, unknown occupation siblings ♦ none important people ♦ Joshua Eliot Holmes , close friends, served several times in Afghanistan together hometown ♦ Portland, Oregon overall history ♦ TRIGGER WARNING: Parent death, cancer, war times, violence
Little Renata was born in 1987 to a fairly unconventional couple for the time. Her father, Steffan (of Swedish descent) was reaching forty when she was born - his partner at the time being close to 20 years younger than he was. The relationship didn't work out, as many in their lives could've guessed. Renny never blamed her father for Brigitte leaving, but she also never let go of that resentment towards the woman who gave birth to her.
And so Renny grew up with a loving, but aged father. He never let go of the hope that Brigitte would come back, so he never really saw anyone else. At his age, with as young of a daughter as he had, there wasn't much time for him to focus on anything else anyway.
It was well into her teenage years that Renny actually began to notice something was different about her. There was no miraculous click, no sudden coming of age. It was a slow realization. Over the course of playing darts, shooting skeet, hell, even playing video games. She couldn't miss. She began expanding that theory. Moving to archery, slingshots, even rubber band guns. It never really dawned on her that she was 'special' or that she was terribly different. Renny thought it was just a neat freak thing. Some people are born with artistic or musical talent, she just happened to be born able to shoot the dime off a branch a mile away.
Renny wasn't ever particularly... Well, she wasn't the brightest, but she wasn't an idiot either. Her nonexistant attention span in school highly inhibited her college choices, but she did manage to get in to a local community college near her hometown in Portland. After a year, Renny was adamant that college was not for her. She dropped out and after bouncing around a few minimum wage jobs, she enlisted in the United States Marine Corps.
The next thirteen years Renny would spend working in the USMC. Her initial job was infantrymen, which only lasted a year. After making quite a spectacle of her special abilities, she was fast tracked to the USMC Scout Sniper School. Training was difficult for Renny, she wouldn't lie, but with hours of training and sweat she made it through. Within a year Renny was sent off to her first tour in Afghanistan. This is where she first met fellow Joshua Holmes. The two bonded pretty quickly over shared love of comics and video games.
The next two years blew by with Josh by her side. The desert didn't seem so deserted when you had good friends and great stories. Things changed in 2009. Josh's convoy was hit by an IED. Renata had been out on a mission, had been gone for two weeks already, and wasn't due back for at least another one. It had been 9 days. Nine days later, Renny had found out that he had been pinned down in a firefight and nearly lost his life. Most of his platoon did. Ren spent the next 5 days at Josh's side, while he was in and out of the ICU.
Josh stabilized, got medically discharged. Life went on for Renny, she still had a job to do. Of course, she kept in touch with the man, but it was hard with the type of missions Renny had to go on. Thankfully, he knew the drill. She hoped he didn't hold it against her too much.
In 2013, Renny got the call she was never expecting. Her father was in the hospital. Brain cancer. Stage four. He maybe had a few weeks to live, if he was lucky. She got a flight home almost immediately, but she was too late. The following week was a blur - handling his estate, planning the funeral, Renny had essentially become a robot.
Time passed too quickly. All too soon, Renny had another mission. The next year was spent on autopilot. Renny grieved, as best as she could in the desert. Soon, the pain became a dull throb - an annoying scab that kind of ached, but really hurt when you picked at it. Eventually, Renny stopped picking, and all that was left was a scar.
Eventually, Renny had enough. She was tired. Tired of the military, of the sand, of the killing. She just wanted to be normal again. Her enlistment was over, and there was nothing in the world that could convince her to reenlist again. Tired, and nowhere to go, Renny called her old time friend Josh, put everything she owned in a single suitcase and left the desert for New Orleans, Louisiana.
