Name: Wilhelmina 'Mina' Thompson Wexler.
Alias: Nirvana.
Age: 25.
Birthday: 06/17/87.
Hometown: Brooklyn, New York, NY.
Family:
Lila Angeline Wexler || Mother
Tamsin 'Sinna' Holiday Wexler || Sister
Appearance: Standing at a good five foot four, Mina has a curvatious body that she's very proud of. Her full, pouty lips and wide blue eyes making many a man's jaw drop. Her brown hair is long and usually either wavy or curled; and her fashion sense is like that of the typical New Yorker, mostly ranging in dreary colors. With a love for boots, there are many times that she doesn't have enough cash to pay the bills, but she usually finds a way.
Personality: Mina has a bit of an forward demeanor and is very much an impulsive person. She will say whatever is on her mind whether or not the situation calls for it. She has a rather dry sense of humor and can come off as bitchy, but she'll just smile and agree if someone points it out. All in all, she doesn't seem like a very optimistic person when it comes to things in her life, but she always takes insults as if they're compliments.
Powers: Through touch, Mina can make people feel completely at peace with their mind, body, and soul. Causing a blissful state, free of suffering, and making people feel like they have no worries in the world.
History: Mina grew up in the neighborhood of Bushwick in Brooklyn; raised by her mother, Lila, and without a clue who her father was. Lila Wexler was a stripper with a bit of a coke problem, and many times it seemed Mina and her older sister, Tamsin, were the adults taking care of her whenever she came home high as a kite. And other times Tamsin and Mina would have to lock themselves in their room when Lila brought home her 'boyfriends'.
Her childhood wasn't normal at least not what Mina would deem normal. Seeing other kids playing in the park with their parents, or seeing other moms with more respectable jobs; watching loving couples and families walk down the street with smiles on their faces. For a long while Mina wanted that; wished for it every night. She soon succumbed to the fact that all she would have was a stripper for a mother and her sister.
Mina was eleven when her mutation was triggered. Her mother had a rather bad reaction to some drug and Mina was trying to comfort her with a hug, only to cause her mother to go into a peaceful state. So peaceful, she fell asleep. Both Mina and Tamsin were relieved, but Mina knew something wasn't right and she told her sister about the pull she felt when she hugged their mom; almost like her body was humming. To demonstrate, Mina took Sinna's hand and watched as her sisters eyes closed and a dreamy smile came to her face.
'See!' she had exclaimed, feeling like she might pass out, but Tamsin only hugged her and told her it was alright, then turning into a huge wolf to show that she wasn't the only mutant in the family. At first, Mina was pissed her sister hadn't shared her mutation with her when she found out, but at she got older, she started to understand. Being a mutant was dangerous.
The year Mina graduated High School, Lila passed away from an overdose. The funeral service was small and the only people who came were a couple strippers and a few of her mother's male 'friends'. Tamsin even got an extention on a test so she could leave college in order to help Mina with all of the preperations.
Mina wasn't a college person, she didn't think her life would be going anywhere big and so settled as a waitress in a dingy Manahattan diner, finally leaving Bushwick and moving into a small studio apartment nearby. In order to pay her bills and keep her boot craving satisfield, Mina uses her gifts for money, letting people pay her for a couple minutes of inner peace.
The last thing she remembers was sorting out cash after a deal when everything when black. Only to wake up a year later with a cat seriously all up in her face and the landlord banging on the door. Not only had she woken up in 2012, but she had a month to move out or she would be escorted off by the police. Mina doubted the police escort, but she didn't doubt that her landlord might bring in some buffed up Russians, so she had a suitcase packed a couple days before she was kicked out on her ass and went to the only place she could think of.
