"Casper Blues"

# Casper Elizabeth Blues

-*"God, for just once in your life, listen to me."*

## Introduction

Casper Blues, or Joanah Asphodel VanMourning, is a detective in her own private investigation bureau Blues Detective Agency. From there, She works closely with the local police force in her hometown of London, Alberia. Often times Casper will work on paranormal cases dealing with ghosts or demons because of her Darktouched nature, but as of now she is a full fledged member of the SOG 115 and her career is mostly used as a way for her to get into crime scenes. Although she is a formidable foe in battle with her trusty shovel, her greatest skill is her ability to outwit opponents through her quick thinking and recently acquired soulmancy.

## Backstory

(Gonna edit this later prolly)

Joanah Asphodel VanMourning is the daughter of two unknown Dark Star Imperium agents who, through their habitual encounters with demons during her mother's pregnancy, unwittingly gave birth to a Darktouched human. Despite their attempts to hide their baby, the parents were discovered and quickly imprisoned before being executed in secrecy. Jonah, meanwhile, was taken by the DSI into a testing facility where she as well as several other sequestered Darktouched children were raised and experimented on in the Imperium's efforts to harness the energy of the rifts.

Joanah grew up in control of the OTRIAD's Psi agency, and thus was very deprived of parental love. After a tremendous earthquake near the Baikal sea, the tectonic plate shift had created a giant hole on the side of her containment cage, which allowed seawater to seep into the cage and send her out of the prison. There, she was found floating by Gaz and Susan Blues, two fishermen off the coast of Norwich. They took her in, back to their home in Wethersborough, Alberia, where she was raised as Casper Blues. Her true name, Joanah VanMourning, was known to Gaz and Susan via the tag on her old research jacket, which they had kept in hiding so she would not remember her dark past.

Despite being only lower-class citizens within the confines of Wethersborough, Gaz and Susan would eventually give enough money, including their pension fund-to send her to Rhodes Academy, London, one of the most esteemed Academies within London. There, she graduated with good results, with some mentors even noting her almost "mind-reading" levels of prediction and how she could detect truths and lies,

## Trivia

* Casper has technically redeemed two Commedia del Arte over the course of season two - Marie and Faye
	+ Marie was a Commedia del Arte for less than twelve hours, so maybe only one and a half Commedia del Arte.
* Casper has several 'siblings' from her time in the DSI, but she does not know any of their whereabouts or if they are still alive
* She does not smoke or drink
* Her catchphrase, "Jesus christ," comes from her time in the DSI, where the onsite director would often force the children to read small snippets of the bible, which lead to the phrase becoming a popular stand in for curse words.
