CLAIRE NOVAK
SUPERNATURAL
— BASICS —
13x10: Wayward Sisters
CANON POINT
— FIRST IMPRESSIONS —
APPEARANCE Claire is lean and obviously fit, but there's nothing otherwise remarkable about her physique at first glance - she sports quite a few battle scars all over, however, and often sports scrapes and bruises from training and hunting. She's got long, wavy blonde hair, soft facial features in a heart-shaped face, and bright blue eyes.
CLOTHING Her clothes tend to be practical, but are decidedly not baggy - Claire opts for clothes that she can fight and look good in. Dark leathers and simple silhouettes, because she'll kick ass and
look damn good doing it.
DEMEANOR Sometimes described as "Biker Barbie", Claire carries herself with confidence in her looks and skills, and it shows. She's holding back little when it comes to attitude. She gives off a stand-off-ish, snarky vibe, of someone who's not too worried/concerned, someone who's tough, resilient and either in control, or not afraid of what lies ahead. Despite soft features, there's an obvious hardness to her. Easy to dismiss as just a young blonde, Claire carries herself in a way that's guarded to others. Unless she's close to someone or deems them no threat whatsoever, she won't turn her back, too suspicious of ulterior motives. Her eyes are sharp, too, rarely just resting on someone but actively taking them in, moving to potential exits to a room, to things easily used as weapons. She carries herself like someone used to fighting. She looks as young as she is, and dares anyone to underestimate her because of it.
AURAL Voice Reference. Claire has a light voice that leans towards flat, dry intonation with sharp, sarcastic edges.
OLFACTORY This girl might not be afraid to get dirty and sweaty in a fight, but she otherwise takes very good care of herself. Think something surprisingly soft and sweet, but not cloying, and subtle enough that it seems barely there.
— SKILLS —
HUMAN (MOSTLY) Claire is a regular human, so physically and mentally has no particularly unusual skills/abilities, and all the weaknesses one would expect. It should be noted that through her father, she is a potential angelic vessel with particular suitability for Castiel, and while the show never expands upon this in details, it is related to her bloodline. It makes her body capable of withstanding the otherwise deadly long term affects of angelic possession, were that ever the case. She also used to be infected with lycanthropy, and is the first and only human in Supernatural canon who has survived an experimental treatment, ending up fully cured. While she doesn't have any active powers or passive affects related to either, they offer a wealth of options of be explored in a setting like Abraxas.
HUNTER Claire is a hunter, and therefore has gained a growing arsenal of lore on many common Supernatural canon monsters and methods to kill them, as well as an array of fake badges/identities, IDs, some minor hacking abilities (enough to keep her afloat for travelling the country and hunting, at the very least). While this knowledge might not immediately be useful in Abraxas, she's picked these skillsets up very quickly, and will be quick to adapt to new environments and challenges as a result. She's also gotten pretty good at hustling billiard players in dive bars.
COMBAT/WEAPONS Claire is capable with a variety of handguns, and can wield a sword/bladed weapon efficiently, as well as knives. In addition, we see her be competent in hand-to-hand combat, as well as resourceful enough to use a variety of improvised weapons. Most of these are skills she's picked up in recent years, and while no master at them, this demonstrates a level of fast adaptability and dedication on her part. Post her canon point we later learn through a brief mention that Claire will eventually go on to become competent enough to start training others.
THIEF/PICKPOCKET Claire can pick locks and has some skill in the sleight of hand department through years of breaking herself out of group homes, running away and living on the street, surviving on five finger discounts and cleverness. These skills were partially self-taught, and partially taught to her by a guy making his money by providing shilter for troubled kids and using them to shoplift and steal money.
LIAR Claire has an impressive pokerface when she really wants to, and knows how to lie to get into places she wants to be. She thinks fast on her feet and can be hard to read by those who don't know her.
PHYSICAL FITNESS Claire has developed the stamina and strength to handle her lifestyle. Hunters need to be in good physical shape to not only outsmart, but also outrun and outmaneuver monsters, fight them, cut through them, and make it through the usual wounds you get on the job with a certain level of pain tolerance without keeling over before you can patch yourself up.
BASIC FIRST AID Claire knows how to patch herself up and suture wounds. While not nearly as skilled as her "step-sister" Alex (a trained nurse), she knows how to stitch her own wounds. It's a necessity because she does most of her hunting alone on the road.
