OVERALL PERSONALITY:
Mystery isn't one of those girls that will stab her friends in the back just for shits and giggles. If you're her friend, she will stay that way until something drastically terrible happens that makes her change her mind. She has a tendancy of making friends too easilly. If someone does or say a few nice things, generally Mystery will begin to trust them. This has gotten her into a few tight spots sometimes with some dangerous people, but Mystery never really listens to warnings until she gets screwed over.
Ever since she was little, Mystery has been a sucker for romantic moments. She loves those times that just make you go 'aww', whether it be in movies or in real life. She watches Disney movies over and over for the sake of the adorable moments in them, wishing for moments like that like she was a five year old again. Even though she's seen it too many times, the Titanic still makes her cry, and she can sit around on a saturday reading romance novels without stopping. That's another reaason she and Thomas get along so well. Thomas is also hopelessly romantic, and often he and Mystery can be seen togther, watching movies or reading when it suits them. While she hasn't had many romantic moments in her life, she often day dreams about falling in love.
Mystery has always been kind of a feminist. She believes strongly that everyone should be able to take care of themselves, and this is especially so for women. Mystery doesn't enjoy asking someone for help, and thinks that if she really wants to do something, she'll figure out a way to get it done by herself. This attitude gets kind of destructive at times, because it blinds her of her own issues. She won't admit she has a problem until it breaks her to pieces, and even then she'll try to put herself together by herself. But there are a select few she will go to for help, Thomas being the main one of them.
Even though Mystery grew up in a time when girls started getting more and more forward, Mystery has remained old fashioned. She generally won't ask a guy out, and most of the time won't even make the first move. Unlike a lot of the girls at Valkyrie, Mystery generally doesn't get totally wasted, and won't just go and make out with some random guy she just met. Mystery is also old fashioned in the sense that she believes in being fully clothed, even if she goes out. She'll show a little skin occaisionally, but knows how to look amazing without wearing short skirts or mid-drift tops.

CHARACTER HISTORY ,
well i don't know, i don't know, i don't know, i hope so[/color]
HOMETOWN: Dublin, Ireland[/size][/font]
PARENTS: George and Penelope O’Brian
SIBLINGS: Nada
OTHER: Thomas O’Brian - Cousin
LIVING SITUATION: Shaks on her own.
HISTORY:
Mystery Alexandria O’Brian was born on December 18th, 1989 to George and Penelope O'Brian. A few short hours later, Penelope died of complications in the birthing process. George, heart broken and angry, gave his new baby daughter to his brother and sister-in-law, saying only long enough to name her before leaving. Mystery's aunt and uncle took her in, taking care of both Mystery and her cousin Thomas with as much love and care as could be provided. Mystery would go until the age of six thinking that Thomas was her brother, and that Leon and Shauna were here mother and father.
It was that same year that the O'Brian clan moved from Dublin, Ireland to Valkyrie, California. They left all of their belongings behind, except for what was necessary. Things like heirlooms and other important items were also brought along. When the children were young, they were made fun of for their strange accents. These sometimes still show themselves when either of the two freshmen are nervous or start talking too fast. No one makes fun of them anymore for that. Hey, this is high school. There are plenty of other things to be teased about.
While Thomas discovered his love for drawing at the age of five, it took Mystery until the age of eight to discover her art. She had been using Play-Doh while upset at a friend and had ended up making a miniature sculpture. Leon and Shauna were shocked at the outcome of the little girl's hands. After all, she had never had any kind of training, and had never done anything like it before. At first, it was just bound to when she was upset, but now Mystery's sculpting capabilities have flourished as greatly as her cousin's drawing talent. The O'Brian parents now provide clay for their niece as often as they provide pencils and paper for Thomas.
Mystery wasn't shocked about Thomas' announcement to her about his sexuality. She had kind of guessed it for a few months, but didn't want to say anything. But she was shocked at how other people reacted. Especially Leon. It wasn't until a couple of guys found out at the middle school that Mystery and Thomas were attending at the time that she did anything with her frustration. A couple of guys started picking on Thomas, and Mystery proceeded in giving them black eyes. Because it wasn't self defense, Mystery was expelled from that school.
If it hadn't been for her sculpting, this probably would have caused Valkyrie to deny Mystery the right to go there. But her acceptence letter came at the same time as Thomas', much to the joy of Leon and Shauna. Since the O'Brian's left Dublin, George hasn't contacted his daughter, and Mystery really wasn't expecting much from him. So when he showed up a the door on a mild Tuesday evening in the middle of the summer, everyone was shocked. He came in with this sob story about how he'd been looking for his daughter for years, and missed her so much. He said that he wanted his baby girl to come home with him, so that they could finally start a family.
Mystery's aunt and uncle were skeptical at first, but didn't argue with George seeing his daughter. So Mystery spent the next month getting to know her own father. Then, he said it was time for him to go back to Irelan, and requested his daughter go with him, even for a short while. She agreed, desperate to get back to her beloved Ireland, and packed her bags to go home. The rest of her summer was spent with her father, and the first few days were fine. But one day, some thugs came to her door, looking for her father. Apparently, he had gotten mixed up in so sort of debt that he couldn't pay. It had been due while he was in California, and the loan shark was getting impatient. They told her to give a message to her fathe that the debt should be paid within the week, or they couldn't say for sure what would happen.
She confronted her father that night, asking him about what he intended on doing to pay the shark back. Her father said he didn't have the means to pay him back, and told Mystery that she could help him get his debts removed. He told her that she had grown into a beautiful woman, and should use that to help the family. He said that he needed her. Mystery was shocked, nd almost went back to Valkyrie that night. But her dad had worked his way underneath her skin. She felt like she had to help him. After all, he had come all the way to Valkyrie for her. So, she put on her best clothes and went for a meeting to try and negociate the terms of her father's troubles. The shark met her in his room, a sign she took badly, especially when he started coming onto her. Around the time he started trying to take her skirt off, Mystery snapped. She grabbed a knife from the bedside table and drove it into the goon's leg and made a break for it. She was stopped at the door, the guards throwing her a few punches before she blacked out.
She doesn't remember anything after that, just waking up outside on the dark lawn, staring dizzily up at the stars. Her clothes were torn to shreds, and she was bleeding all over the place. Mystery pulled herself together and got into her car and drove all the way home before she realized her wrist was broken. So, she went to the hospital and got a cast on it without too much trouble, then packed her stuff without a word to her inquiring father. Placing a call to Thomas, she took a cab back to the airport and left Dublin for home. For Valkryie, California. So watch your step, because the mysterious Mystery O'Brian is back with a vengance.
