Deirdre Serrano

Deirdre Serrano

Deirdre is considered by most people a fun, positive party girl. Deirdre makes friends very easily. She's outgoing and extroverted. She gets invited to a lot of parties and social gatherings because she's genuinely a fun person to be around. She has so many cool and crazy ideas! Her positivity shows in her constant smile, which people are drawn to. Yet while a lot of people want to be around her, Deirdre is just as guarded about her inner circle as she is her special abilities. Only a select few friends are allowed into her intimate life.
Deirdre is guarded about her abilities to see the possible futures that lie ahead. Known as Divination or Precognition, she would rather maintain her popularity than deal with the reactions people might have about her abilities. Sometimes, she gives her friends a little fun palm reading, but purposefully keeps it vague.
Where her powers come in most handy is when she wants to accomplish something. She's sometimes used her Precognitive powers to get test answers or homework problems, but only as a last resort. She does, however, want to know if the outcomes of her efforts will turn out good or bad. From there, she pays attention to details that might help her fulfill or avoid those outcomes—so, in her mind, that's not really cheating. Is it?
And, frankly, she's a slob and she fully admits it. Her room is often strewn with the hottest fashionable clothes. And her lack of organization often gets her into trouble, whether its with classes, friends, or her job.

Failures & Embarrassments

Main Character Flaws: she doesn't seem to take things seriously (supporting her "party girl" persona)

Hygiene

While she keeps herself clean and healthy, nearly everything else is a complete mess, from clothing strewn about to dishes. If anyone got a hold of her class notes, they'd never be able to decipher them—and Deirdre knows because she has trouble herself. The copy editors are kept very busy with her submissions, but because her column is so popular, they are glad to do it.
