So, this RP is still on then, and open to registrations?
Name: Riane Collins
Alias: Haze
Age: 25
Appearance: Riane, aka Haze, is a somewhat intimidating figure, standing 5'11" tall but moving fluidly and silently enough through the crowds to remain mostly unnoticed. Her choice of clothing is a pair of tattered black cargo pants that have the patch of a paramedic, still attached to part of the sleeve of a white shirt, tied to the beltloops and a white undershirt that's started to gray with age. She also keeps a midnight blue hooded jacket tied behind her around her waist, most likely to keep the dagger she has hanging behind her back hidden from view, and her shoes are a pair of black leather Reeboks that have soft enough soles to keep her footsteps nearly silent.
Aside from her clothing, her physical appearance also gives her many of the qualities of a wraith, especially her pale skin, which contrasts sharply with her brown hair that's covered in black "highlights", including the section of hair that fals by her right eye. Her eyes are a dull grey-blue, deadened from years of hardship, and she almost always has the appeance of having black eyes. Her body is a thin, muscular build that while it gives her the athletic abilities expected from an assassin, isn't toned enough to give her a muscled appearance.
Personality: Outwardly, her personality is, if not cold, chilly, and most people will pass her without hearing her say one more word than she has to. Her motto is waste no words, though she does enjoy to talk to people that she considers close friends, and she does still maintain a good singing voice, even though she hasn't used it within a mile of people in ages.
It wouldn't be hard at all to mistake her for someone who is slightly insane, except for the deadly focus and intelligence in her eyes, for she has been known to be antisocial, and will kill a child just as quickly as she will a serial killer that she has her sights set on. The thing that keeps her from dipping into insanity, though, is her belief that killing is a form of public service and not something that should be done in zeal or out of personal vendetta, and she will without hesitation deal with such people in the way that she sees best fit.
One final note about her is her multiple personalities. Perhaps due to her near complete isolation from the social world, she has another personality, a lady that calls herself River, who is the only one to date that Riane will open herself up to, and they have a relationship that is largely one of a mother and daughter, with Riane being on the latter end of that pair.

History: Riane started out her life as one "Chameal Riane Collins", a girl who lived with her mother, a fanatic fundamentallist churchgoer, in a small town in Switzerland. Chameal had other experiences with what she thought were spirits, namely one that called herself River, and tried to follow the 'old ways' as much as she could. This went well until one day when her mother found out and went off the deep end, saying that the 'devil had taken over [her] daughter' and trying to kill her, forcing Chameal to flee for her life.
For the next two years, Chameal would learn how to survive on the streets, until a mishap involving some stolen food ended up with her being taken under the wings of a travelling martial arts instructor, who also was an assassin for hire by night. Three years later, on the job that would mark her entrance into adulthood, she messed up and ended up getting her instructor and adopted father killed. River, who had become more of a 'headmate' than what Chameal had thought to be a spirit by this point, was left to take care of Chameal while she withdrew in on herself, and 'Riane' was born out of necessity.
Riane did the best she could for the next couple of years, balancing living and trying to bring Chameal back out of her shell, and she caught a break when she met a person that would become like a brother to her and another that would become her boyfriend, both of whom would end up helping bring Chameal out of her shell again, albeit as a shadow of her normal self. She worked as a paramedic to get enough money to live and contracted, so to speak, with a couple of local gangs for any extra that she needed.
Eventually, due to bad blood between the gangs, she was forced to move out of he country, and landed in America, where she became a bartender. Her and her small group of friends would eventually learn of the government's practices and join the Peacemakers to fight back against it. They had a semi-successful run until their group was infiltrated and taken down by Omega and their righthand men The Watchers. Everyone died save for her surrogate brother, who went missing, and herself. After this incident, Chameal went into a fit of depression and vanished back into her mind completely, for all purposes dead to the world, leaving Riane to carry on living.
Riane, already harsh on the world around her due to the circumstances she was born into, never quite forgave them for destroying a part of herself, and decided that the approach the Peacemakers had taken was too soft, joining the Activists instead. Here, she would be responsible for the deaths of multiple people affiliated with Omega one way or another, mostly Watchers, and the bombing of one building.
The history is a little bit sketchy, but I had to adapt it to fit this plot and universe.
