Genre (type of story you'd put them in): Spy/superhero
Describe the Character Physically in Your Own Words: Erin is on the short side at 5' 2". She has an average body but toned arms, one of which bears a blue sparrow. Her slim, angular face has a natural beauty and clear blue eyes. Her hair is naturally brown but she usually has on a hot pink wig with black and sparkly highlights.
One Line Description of Character: Superspy masquerading as a gymnastics teacher.
Tell Us About the Character: Erin lives in a quaint little white farmhouse, drives a Subaru Outback and teaches little kids the basics of gymnastics ... or that's what her neighbors think. What they don't see is the multi-tunnel escape route, command center, panic room and vast arsenal under the house. Or the mini chopper pad that rises out of her backyard. Or her vast closet of clothes, shoes, face changing putty and rainbow of natural toned wigs. Erin has been a gymnast since age four and had been to the Olympics twice by age seventeen, when the CIA approached her after her college level psychology class. For the next three years she was trained by the Agency, who encouraged her to continue her father's tradition of wearing bright wigs to compete. The world was horrified when twenty one year old Erin suffered an "accident" during her training for the next Olympics and announced that while she would be regain most of her flexibility she would no longer be able to compete professionally. She was kept to low profile cases for the next few years as her notoriety wore off but once she was able to enter the field fully she quickly made a (fake) name for herself as an efficient and top notch spy.
How often does she wear the wig? Ironically the flashy wig and fake sparrow tattoo are part of her day to day disguise. It's her sleek brown hair that strikes fear into her fellow agents.
