- Michelle loves to be the center of attention and the life of the party. In a party environment she will become a total raging spaz and will do a ton of things for attention. She's usually extremely happy and loud to get people to look at her. Always trying to cheer people up and make them have fun is her goal. Sometimes she takes it a bit over the top and can get extremely annoying, and gets on peoples' nerves.
- When she's in a relationship, she is very loving and sweet, and never tries to let her partner down, though she can be quite a horny little girl at times. Sometimes she will date and hook up just for fun, but if she feels that a relationship is serious, she will adjust to it.
- She hates being alone, and never wants to be away from her BFF. [Spencer] If she's away from him she will constantly text him and sometimes will zone out and not listen to the other people who are talking to her.
- If she knows a person who's being made fun of or is being hurt by someone else, she will try to intervene and protect her friend. If she hardly knows the person though, she won't put herself into any unnecessary situations.
- Since she has Bipolar Disorder, she has many mood swings. Though it doesn't happen ALL the time, if something tiny triggers it she can go from happy to sad to angry in a matter of minutes, which can sometimes throw people off. Since this goes hand in hand with depression, if something makes her extremely sad, she could possibly go into a hard depressive episode. She will feel hopeless and alone and won't be able to sleep. Sometimes if it goes too far or she isn't helped in time she will cut herself. These episodes can last a short time to a very long time depending on the reason.
- Mickey definately has a drug problem, but she prefers it to be called self-medication. Sure she doesn't smoke or drink very often, but when she's at raves and parties, she gets into the harder drugs. Ecstasy, acid, LSD, cocaine, and shrooms are definately on her favorites list. Though she does these things for the fun of it, she knows when she is going overboard.
- Even though she can be extreme and hyper, during the day she is usually calm and sweet and actually pays attention in classes. She is actually not extremely stupid school-wise, though she does make stupid decisions.
- Since she loves parties and fun, she HATES party-poopers and overly serious people who shoot others down. She usually tries to avoid or ignore these types of people. Sometimes ignoring isn't an option and she will get extremely pissy. She turns into a grumpster easily and will YELL and go off on people. Once she realizes what she said she will feel extremely bad and probably go cry about it. Usually this happens with people who bully her friends.
- Michelle is easily disgusted and discomforted. She loves to be warm and comfortable but things can put h er out of the mood really quickly. She doesn't like disgusting things or being in uncomfortable situations.
- She doesn't react to stress easily, and holds many grudges. It's extremely easy to let her in, but really hard to regain her trust. If something you do is negative to her, she will remember you for it.
- Mickey knows how to read people and knows how people work and react to certain things. She can usually tell if you're down or if something is bothering you. If she knows you she'll do her best to cheer you up.
- She tries not to but sometimes she can be really snobby, since she grew up being spoiled and being treated like a princess.
- Sometimes she isn't very honest and will lie to avoid hurting someones feelings. She's a pretty good liar and usually people can't tell that she's lying.
- Even though she sticks up for her friends and their views, she isn't very good at sticking up for herself, and is quite vulnerable. She usually doesn't try to defend herself and probably needs someone to defend her.

History

Jaremiah Briggs was in his early thirties and lived in Los Angeles, California. He was a very successful businessman there, being the head of a prosperous company. Being the owner, he was very wealthy. He had an expensive home in the middle of the city, near his business building. Secretly outside of work, he practiced necromancy in his basement, his parents being necromancers themselves and the power in his genes. He never used necromancy for bad things, he merely practiced and researched just in case he ever needed to use it someday in the future, or if it would come in handy. On a business trip, he had to travel north to San Francisco to talk to some other businessmen. Here, he met Marcy, who was a worker for one of his allied companies. Once they met they immediately fell for eachother. After dating and seeing eachother, soon enough they were married. They were a successful couple, both so formal and productive. Marcy wanted to stay near her family, so Jaremiah moved to San Francisco with her and built a new, huge house just for them. On one fateful day, a worker from a rival company came and murdered Marcy in her sleep when she was pregnant with Michelle. Jaremiah was devastated, but then he realized his necromancy practices and being able to ressurect the dead. After his wife was buried, Jaremiah snuck into the graveyard and attempted to ressurect his deceased wife, and suck her sould back into her body. He was sucessful. Since Marcy was pregnant at the time, the baby lived along with her, turning into a banshee even before she was born. Jaremiah brought his wife back to the home. She looked normal, and acted just like she would be if she was human, but oddly sometimes she would cry for a reason he didn't understand. Soon enough, Michelle was born. When Michelle was growing up, they LOVED her, and spoiled her all her childhood with gifts and toys. They usually let her do what she wanted, and didn't interrupt her adventures very often. She didn't realize she was so spoiled, she thought everyone got as many presents as she did. Even when she was little, she was rebellious. Her parents saw this, but didn't think of it much because they felt that it was normal. She was always running around, causing trouble. When she started school, she actually liked it. Sitting in class and being praised for doing a good job made her feel great. This brief praise and being liked by the teacher drove her to actually try and pay attention in school, wanting to be successful. Though she was so serious, OUT of class she was a little walking tornado. She would love to cause trouble. Usually she didn't realize what she really did. Other kids were always around her and wanted to talk to her, which she also was extremely glad about. Growing up her and her parents DID realize she had a problem..her mood would change quickly, and sometimes she would become extremely quiet and keep to herself. They overlooked this and thought it was just part of being a banshee. Since they knew she was supernatural, they sent her to a supernatural elementary school that was conveniently in the area. In about fourth grade, Mickey was walking along, playing in the yard, when she heard some loud yelling and crying coming from one of the old, run down houses in the neighborhood nearby. She curiously snuck out of the gates and inspected the dark alleys. As she walked into the alley, she found a boy, who was in her 4th grade class, who was all dirty and crying, looking like he had just gotten into a fight. She saw this kid at school, she remembered him being a cupid, and being a little girly. People always made fun of him. A name popped into her head, Spencer. Another boy was standing over him with his hand in a fist. He wanted his lunch money. Mickey didn't like it when people picked on innocent people like that, so she ran up and pushed the bully over. She yelled and shrieked and did her best to punch at the kid until he eventually ran away. This was the start of a beautiful friendship. At first, she always noticed that Spencer seemed a little different, but he never thought it was a bad thing. She got closer and closer to him, and they always stuck together. Whenever people made fun of him, she always defended and stuck up for him. They were best friends. Middle school came around, hormones raging and all that good stuff. Middle school is when she changed. She loved the bright colors that some people wore, with their poofy hair and cute stuff. She always saw pictures of these types of girls on the internet. Both her AND Spencer loved the look, and went after it themselves. They were introduced to parties, and raves, and drugs, and they were always beside eachother when they tried something new. Mickey noticed changes in Spencer, his voice got deeper and he got taller. She started to develop a crush on him, yet she always kept it to herself because she knew that Spencer would never like her like that. Though his feelings were this way, they always experimented with eachother and got so close that they basically acted like a couple. They defined being comfortable around a friend, even taking eachothers virginity just out of curiosity. During the summer before freshman year, both of them were extremely drunk, and Michelle ended up drinking one of Spencer's potions. Not a drop, not a sip, but she chugged the entire bottle. This love potion intensified her crush into love. She was definately in love with him, but she was VERY good at not showing it. The remedies she tried to take didn't help much, and she knew she would be stuck with this unbearable feeling, knowing he was her best friend, not boyfriend. Even with this feeling, they remained best friends. The two of them are the definition of BFF....except maybe a bit over the top. They trust each other, never lie to each other, and are comfortable doing ANYTHING with eachother. Whenever things went bad with either one of them, they always had a shoulder to cry on or a hug to cheer them up. Feeling this way towards each other basically made them inseparable. When they get split up, they usually cool down a lot and won't stop texting or finding a way to talk to one another. Being apart isn't an option. They went to a high school that was also in California, but eventually Michelle's parents had to move for business reasons, to New York, in the middle of her junior year. Michelle panicked. She couldn't leave her best friend like this! She became extremely depressed and was almost suicidal at the thoughts of leaving her best friend. Seeing how she reacted, Spencers parents to let him come with her. Though she would come first, atleast she had the peace of mind that her best friend would come along with. Her parents knew of an academy that the two could go to, Lawrence Academy.
