Appearance:

Terra is easy to describe. She is a thin framed girl, she doesn't have any muscle tone to her body at all. Her frame is what most would describe as built much like a stick. Terra has long blonde hair that goes past her shoulders, that she keeps parted, yet tendrils frame her face. Her eyes are a light blue.

Her outfit, is simple. Terra wears a long sleeved black midriff top with a monogrammed T in the center of it. The T can be seen as both as possibly as a Titan, or simply her name Terra. Along with her midriff top, Terra can be seen wearing a pair of yellow shorts and a brown belt with several pouches to carry along various items such as her Titans Communicator. To complete her outfit, Terra wears a pair of brown gloves.

Personality:

Terra's personality has always sort of ebb and flowed, with a earthquake mixed in. From the start she has always wanted to feel accepted, wanted. It shows from the way that she had clung to the first people that had been nice to her when she found Jump City. Though she had remained confident that she could prove to them that she was worth knowing and worth having on the team, she lacked the ability. She had been insecure with herself being unable to prove to anyone, even herself that she was capable. In tune her personally hadn't gotten better. Though she now has control over her powers, Terra has self doubt. Uncertain if she can control her powers at full strength without inevitably destroying herself.

Despite her flaws, Terra can be seen as a kind person. She is uncertain, but is capable of being herself around Beast Boy, her first friend within the tower. Terra comes off as a fun loving kind of girl, who enjoys the simple life. Being outside. Traveling as one of her main hobbies. Also, though her track record doesn't prove this theory, now that she is back, she comes off as more humble, trying to make amends, and wanting to be more loyal to those that she had hurt in the past.

Abilities & Weaknesses:

Powers/Abilities

• geomancer - Terra has the ability to control the ground, everything that is earth matter such as metal and rocks can be manipulated by her powers. this is also a string of geokinesis a form of terrakinesis that can manipulate lava.
  
  
• Hand to hand combat - Through the training she had received from Slade, Terra had achieved the ability to not only fight with her geokinesis but with her fists.
  
  
• Above basic knowledge of technology - Though this isn't a super-power, Terra does have inept understanding of technology.
  

Weaknesses/Physical Flaws/Psychological Flaws:

• Easily persuaded, Terra has a hard time finding a place for herself, though she is currently back with the Titans, she has a hard time really believing that it's where she could belong.
  
  
• She has and always will likely be insecure, she never believes that she can be good enough. Though she does have some self confidence now, Terra still struggles with accepting that she can handle the trivializations of being a super-hero.
  
  
• Her powers, this is one of her greatest limitations, though she has the power to command the earth, it is also a great fear to command such power, especially after encasing herself within stone, after the defeat of Slade.
  
  
• Loss of Friends, though she knows she has made mistakes in the past, she is irrevocably worried that she had lost what she had cherished in her time with the Titans.
  
  
• Self Doubt, that she isn't good enough to be someone to help people.
  

History:

My name is Terra. I have done horrible things

I will admit first and foremost that I am not the greatest person in the world, I have done much harm than good within my short lifetime. My family, left me, which had inevitably had been within a lab, which had produced my powers. I had never had much control of them, just holding them back with all my might, yet releasing them when I lost my concentration, or when something emotional had taken over me. In turn, I had hurt a lot of people, despite my good intentions.

My story, really didn't begin until the day I had met the Teen Titans. Despite not knowing me, they welcomed me within their home, accepted me as their friend. A mistake on both our parts, mine for letting them, and them for trusting me so easily. I had been quick to make friends with Beast Boy and Starfire, they were the easiest to accept me, especially Beast Boy. Even after I had told him, I didn't completely control my powers, a fact I had hoped he wouldn't voice to the others, I was working on them, I was trying, I just needed more time. Able to go off with them on a hunt for Slade, I was ready, I didn't want to let down my new friends and I saw this as a way to let them see my abilities off of the training course that I could be helpful in a fight. This is where I met him, met Slade face to face, he showed me a different way, told me that he could help me learn to control myself, that I could become the best I could ever hope for, if I went and joined him, betray my friends. I hadn't made my choice to join him, not after Beast Boy had came to save me from myself, my uncontrollable powers. When I decided to leave, simply for my own safety, it was there that Robin confronted me about my powers, unknown to me that he had simply figured it out, not that Beast Boy had betrayed me, thus shoving me into the arms of my soon to be master, Slade.

It was under the control of Slade did we hatch a plan, I hated how my friend had betrayed me, hurt that he would tell my secret when I had asked him not to. Slade manipulating my hatred for my friends. I had a tough training experience, everything from mastering the ability to hack through Cyborgs security, to learning hand to hand combat not to mention my greatest feat, controlling my powers. I owed Slade, I was now indebted to him.

I soon went to join the Titans once more, this time displaying the ability to control my powers and being welcomed back into the team. Though Raven never really trusted me, not believing that I could learn to control my powers just like that. Yet we were able to reconcile our differences when our home was in jeopardy. I realize it's a bit hypocritical to state that I was saving my home, when I was going to destroy it shortly afterwards, but really I was fighting for my friends and my home, yet never forgetting I owed Slade. I wanted out of my deal with Slade, I wanted to be with Beast Boy and the gang again, not have to take them down. I had tried to save Beast Boy, try and have him understand what had happened and why I had done it, but even he turned on me and then the apprentice returned to her master.

Then, I took strike upon the Titans, luring them out and defeating them all. I had believed that I had destroyed them, defeated them. It was hard to imagine them not being so, with the way that I had taken them out individually. After Slade and his minions took over the city, pulling Jump into fear, did I learn that I hadn't fully defeated the Titans, they returned with full vengeance, no longer taking mercy on me because I was their friend, I was now their enemy. Though I could defeat them when they were alone, I could not do so while they were in numbers, fearful for my own life, I ran from them returning to Slade's side where he had turned on me, turned on me for being a coward. I had no one, Slade the Titans they all despised me. It was then, the Titans had joined myself and Slade in his Hideout. Slade wanted me to kill Beast Boy, going as far as controlling my powers through my apprentice suit. Breaking free from his grasp, I was able to turn on Slade, saving Beast Boy, though with my powers I had disrupted the dormant volcano, causing the elements to turn against my good dead and my friends. I made my choice, I hadn't done very much good within the world, I had caused so much trouble for everyone and I had to make up for it, some how. Saying goodbye to my friend, I used my powers to defeat the volcano, but the price had been my life, encasing myself within a stone tomb within the confines of Slades destroyed lair.

Time was not a factor to my entombment. It was like a long and peaceful sleep. Then one day, I returned, my body restored and life breathed back into me. After the fall of Trigon, I was able to be brought back to life thanks to Raven. But I wasn't ready to join the Titans again. They couldn't forgive me, not after what I had done, so I went to try a simple life. I went to school, made friends who didn't have super powers, tried to remain hidden from the Titans and their wandering eyes. Yet, Beast Boy had found me, but I continued to try and keep the identity of myself a secret.

I continued to practice on my own, away from everyone, trying to gain what skills I could have lost. Uncertain if I belonged. Assured, I wasn't a threat, I went to the Titans and apologized for my crimes for what wrong I had done to them, the people that were my friends. I was accepted back. I was a Teen Titan again.

and I have absolutely no regrets.

RP Sample:

Terra had been a busy girl for several days now. Wandering around the city getting back into the groves of how the city worked, being a hero again. She mostly did it by herself, helping the simple things that she could handle on her own. She liked going out of the tower more than simply staying within it. Terra liked going out, practicing her powers when she got the chance, keeping them in control and working with them. She had been within stone for a long time, Terra had got rusty with them. Sometimes she sat outside the tower, where she had talked with Beast Boy about her unable to control them in the first place. The fun and silly moments, where he promised to keep her secret. Today had been no exception, she sat on the rocks for a few moments looking out to the waters edge, viewing the city. She had already spoken with Starfire, a great feeling to know she had her as a friend. With everyone else it was all glass and mirrors, Terra didn’t know exactly how the others felt or didn’t want to except that she already did.

There wasn’t a day that had gone by since her return that she didn’t think of the last few moments of her life before she was encased in stone. From her being controlled and hurt by Slade, confused about what her true actions had to be. Almost being forced to kill the one person who had turned out to be her very best friend, the person she cared about the most. Someone she actually loved. Turning all her hate and confusion into power and being able to take on the one person who had abused her powers just for himself, and wouldn’t and hadn’t taken her thoughts into effect. It was one of her prouder moments. Out of all the wrong she could have done. All the times she had been alone, and Terra finally began to fight for her family. Truly caring about their safety their needs.

She closed her eyes for a few moments, forgetting all her past, and focused back on the water in front of her. Terra let out a slow sigh and walked back towards the Tower. Entering the code on the door panel, the key pad made a small chime and allowed her access back into the Tower. Walking down the hall, back into the main room, finding it empty. Where was everyone again? It seemed to her strange that all the Titans found themselves elsewhere. Terra had known them for a long time and no matter what the others could be found in the main living room, playing video games, playing chess, reading a book or charming your pet, worm thing. Anything was more likely than a empty room. ”Where is everyone?” she asked in a frustrated tone. Sure she was trying to avoid the other Titans to a minimal but this was getting to be a bit extreme. If the other Titans weren’t around, then she couldn’t be sure what to do with herself. Terra instinctively went to look for her communicator, maybe she had forgotten it in her room and the other Titans were on a mission without her? Finding it safely hooked to her belt she felt a sigh of relief. So they weren’t out on the town? Terra walked up the few steps that lead to the inner hallway, that lead to most of the rooms within the Tower. Maybe she could go visit Starfire.

Terra began to walk down the hall, heading for the other girls room. When she really considered another option. All of her better moments, at least most of them had been with Beast Boy. Every single moment had been something she had enjoyed and loved. Beast Boy made her laugh, allowed her to enjoy being around. There were few times when around him, she didn’t enjoy herself and time spent. Terra paused for a moment. She should go and see Beast Boy. Really she missed him. Not that she didn’t see him often, but it didn’t seem like often enough to make a difference at least to her. Changing directions Terra went straight to Beast Boy’s room. She stopped as she came to his door. Pausing and taking several seconds just looking at his door. Maybe he wasn’t in his room? He might be else where visiting the city, buying more tofu, anything more important than just sitting in his messy room. Though she was certain if he stayed in his room for too long that he may suffocate from the mess that had created itself within it. Taking in a deep breath she knocked on his door. ”Beast Boy. Its Terra.” he told him through the door. If he wasn’t then she was just talking to a door and whatever creatures had birthed themselves in his room.
