Bio:

Name: Meredith Joan Korim
Nicknames: Mer, MJ, Merry
Birthday: July 1st
Position: Sophomore
Age: 16
Height: 5'9"
Weight: 110
Hair Colour: Dark Brown
Eye Colour: Blue

Appearance: Her skin is pale as porcelain as she is agoraphobic and refuses to go outside. She has long brown hair so dark as to appear black and blue eyes as hard as ice. Some of her good features include naturally pouty lips, strong cheekbones and her quizzically arching eyebrows. She commonly has dark circles under her eyes from her poor sleeping habits. Other poor habits include missing meals and biting her fingernails. These habits result in a generally untidy appearance. At 110 lbs she is severely underweight, she has been asked by the staff to put on 20 pounds. Because her weight is in a constant state of flux, all the clothes that she owns is several sizes too large.
Psychic Ability: Technopathy
Expanded abilities: Can communicate with sufficiently advanced technology. This being electronic alarms, mobile phones, gps systems and computers for example. Technology outside her purview would be mechanical clocks, typewriters and most of the internal systems of cars (The sound system and radio being an exception). She can give orders and receive information in return.
Limitations: If the tech is broken or not working right it would read to her as 'dead' or 'retarded/lame' respectively. She cannot repair or tweak systems in any mechanical faculty. Her abilities currently require physical touch as a focus but the staff at Zener believe that will not always be true.

Personality: To sum her up in four words: angry, hurt, scared and lonely. The seclusion that her mother subjected her to stunted her emotional growth. Not to mention her social skills. She is generally confused by other people. When she feels any strong emotion, she doesn’t know how to express it. The only way for her is to release it as anger. She is apathetic to many subjects that would inspire strong emotions in other people. To her insects and rodents are just going about their lives like people do. She is a fatalist and refuses to believe in love.

Weaknesses: No social skills, prone to anger. Malnourished because she often forgets to eat.
Strengths: Ability to keep herself amused for hours, can read lips,excellent time management skills. Likes: Music, sings when no one can listen, likes watching people from a distance. Dark colours and rainstorms. Dislikes: Large open spaces (agoraphobic), cheerful people, loud people, just people in general.
History: Born in the Chicago area and the youngest of two children. Her father died when she was very young. As a young girl she looked up to and adored her older brother Morgan. Their mother was stern and conventional, but very busy making the funds to raise two children. When Meredith was ten, her mother and brother left and only her mother came back. Even though she asked repeatedly, her mother would never tell her where Morgan went.

Once her mother sent her older brother Morgan away, she began fastidiously taking care of her only remaining child. She doted on her. At least, she did until she caught Meredith resetting the clocks by just touching them. She tried to convince her daughter that what she was doing was evil and must never happen again. Even though Meredith agreed, her mother’s behavior became increasingly erratic and paranoid. She withdrew her daughter from school and disposed of all modern electronics, convinced that the talent would wither from disuse.

From the age of eleven to fifteen Meredith was kept as a prisoner in her own house. The neighbors had a high turnover rate and soon no one outside even knew that a young girl lived there. While Meredith was under the guise of Homeschooling, her mother never actively educated her. She was left with textbooks and her own counsel when it came to studying. She finished each year of school with a standardized test administered by the state to judge homeschooling students.

Partway into what would have been her freshman year of high school a particularly nosy neighbor reported the mother on a minor violation. Once the authorities were involved, the house of cards came tumbling down. Her mother was indicted on emotional child abuse and was sentenced to a State-run Asylum. Meredith was recycled into the foster care system. Within a week of being free, Zener offered her a place at their school.

She was a gifted student but following her mother's incarceration and other events her grades dropped dramatically. She began attending Zener in the middle of the school year, but all the sudden changes and the reunion with her brother sent her into a slightly catatonic state. For a few weeks she went through the motions of life before she snapped and locked herself into her room. It took several more months before the school counselor felt she could go back to classes. She made up the missed schoolwork over the summer and is ready to begin her sophomore year.
