Savannah Isabel Evans
But tell me, did you sail across the sun?
Did you make it to the Milky Way
To see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated?
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star?
One without a permanent scar
And then you missed me
While you were looking for yourself out there?

Personal Style:
Savannah is a fairly typical girl. She can wear just about anything. She's not overly girly-girl but she's not a hard-core tomboy either. She likes to wears jeans a lot, paired with either t-shirts or more girlish tops. She like all kinds of shoes anything from boots, high-heels to her comfy pair of favorite Chuck Taylor's. At her core she is a bit of a country girl. So, cowboy hats and cowboy boots are also a big part of her wardrobe.
Overall, comfortable and casual is what she would wear on a regular basis. She's the type that would pull her hair back into a pony-tail and put on a ball cap to run out to the grocery store. If the occasion calls for it, like going out to a club or out to dinner or something, she's more than happy to put on a dress or something appropriate.
Face Claim: Carrie Underwood
Abilities:
Air Elemental Powers:
She was born into this power, through her family line.
She has the ability to call upon the energy as well as control the air around her.
She can do this at will if she focuses and concentrates.
Basically she can make the air move, wind blow, etc.
She can also create a type of shield/barrier (mainly for protection) by manipulating the energy in the air.
The Elemental Powers are also tied to her emotions somewhat, so while she can call them at will, sometimes if she's in a highly emotional state (mainly fear or anger but it could also occur in an extremely elated state or from sadness as well) it's possible she could cause something to occur by accident.
Witch:
She's a natural witch where as she gets her powers from the earth and the energy around her (it's tied in with being an elemental, they kind of go hand in hand)
Not to mention the fact that she grew up in New Orleans and it's voodoo, hoodoo history, it was fairly natural for her to get involved with Witchcraft/Magic.
Knows about magical herbs and items to brew up potions, make hex bags and things like that. She can do spell casting and rituals and such. Mostly things for protection and locating things, stuff along those lines.
Personality:
Savannah is an interesting person. She grew up happy and normal for the most part and you can still see some of that innocent girl in her. Savannah is a pretty outgoing and outspoken person, especially when she needs to be. She knows how to turn it on and off. She can also be quiet, reserved and even shy, depending on the situation. She does have a bit of a rebellious streak and can be a bit stubborn sometimes which can get her into trouble. Savannah does have a certain charm about her and most people like her and are drawn to her so most trouble she gets into she is able to smooth over.
Singing is a passion for her. She can also play the piano (mandatory childhood lessons) and the guitar. For the most part she does it for her own enjoyment and the entertainment of friends and family. Though, she has been known to let loose at karaoke or an open mic night.
For the most part she is a pretty sweet girl.

Bio:
Savannah was born on April 3, 1984 in New Orleans, Louisiana to a couple named Rachel and Michael Evans. Savannah is the youngest child and only daughter of Rachel and Michael. Growing up with two older brothers, James and Rick she learned how to be tough. Though her brothers were tough on her they were also her biggest protectors and they we always very close. Savannah’s childhood was pretty normal and happy. She loved having big brothers and always looked up to them. What she didn't know though, was that her parents had a secret. It wasn't that is was a bad secret, but they didn't want to tell Savannah until they felt she was old enough and ready to handle it. They tried to give Savannah as normal an upbringing as possible.
As she got older she noticed there was something different about her. That she could ‘do’ things. Sometimes things would move as if by a gust of wind, if she just thought about it. She didn’t tell her parents right away as she was afraid that something was wrong with her, that maybe she was crazy so she kept it hidden. The older she got though the more she realized there were other things she could do and her family seemed a bit different than others. When she was about 12 she finally decided to tell her mother about her being different. That was when her parents decided they needed to tell her what was going on.
What she learned was that she was what her mother called an "Elemental", she explained it was kind of like being a witch. She had certain powers and her mother had them too. It was something that was in their family lineage but only handed down through the female part of the line. Savannah came to know that she was a part of a long line of Air Elementals. She is a direct descendant of one of the founders of The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, founded in 1888, the order incorporates air and the other Greek classical elements into its teachings.
Once she came to terms with the information, Savannah accepted it, even thought it was pretty cool, now that she knew she wasn't crazy or something. Her mother helped her and taught her how to focus and control her power. Her mother also had a book, that contain rituals and such, very much like a book of shadows or a grimoire. With the use of certain rituals there was more they could do with their powers. Normally, without a ritual, the powers are only affective within a certain range. The range depends on several things but as she gets more powerful her range expands. With the rituals, they can affect things at great distances. Also, there are certain rituals that they can perform to divine certain things. Almost like scrying, she can search for thing and see images in the air. A misty cloudy type area appears and within it she can see things. It's also connected to her ancestors so she can see things from the past sometimes. This is not something easy though like how she can control the wind at will. It takes a lot out of her to do that.
So...as Savannah grew up, her brothers went on to live their lives, make careers for themselves, start there families, etc.. AS for her brothers, they kept in contact and see each other when they can but as in all families, they grew up and went on to follow their own paths. Savannah went on to college. She attended Louisiana State University (LSU), in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Majoring in English and specializing in writing and journalism she graduated and got her degree with honors. While in college she actually started to write her first book. When she was still a senior at the University, she got her novel published. Upon her graduation she moved back home to New Orleans. She now writes a series of novels based on supernatural events that have actually occurred, but she passes them off as fiction. She writes under the Pen Name of Mystic Wind.
