Eidetic memory – Naomi has a near perfect recall, she subliminally picks up an all kinds of details from the people around her.
Extensive Knowledge of the Slayer - Knows all their is to know about the Slayers and their history
Dewy Decibel System - Can find her way around a library as quickly as it takes somebody to google.
Amazing Teacher – Although her methods are often questionable she is a fantastic teacher.
Bitch – Is able to bring people down with several well placed insults
Demon Identification – Is able to identify demons with ease from very few details
Guns – Although she is long past the days of fighting hand to hand she can still fire a gun with the prescicion of a sniper. But she enjoys Machine guns.
Dirty Humor – Naomi likes nothing more than a dirty joke or naughty story, her language would sometimes make a sailor blush.

WEAKNESSES
She’s only human, an elderly Human – Naomi is not fit for the battlefield. She is past her prime and wouldn’t be scared to admit that However admitting it and believing it are two different things as she finds it hard to syat out of the action
Magic – It was never her forte, while other Watchers were able to understand and manipulate magic Naomi preferred books and science
Self assured – She believes that she is always right and can sometimes bulldoze her ideas on unwilling participants
People Skills – As she’s had to fight to gain her position her people skills often leave a lot to be desired
Too career driven – Naomi never found the time to settle down and have her own family, she sees the slayer as a second chance at this

[/b] Naomi is an extremely well preserved woman of over 60 years. She stands as 5’7 and as she is a lady she will never reveal her weight. She has taken care of herself and has kept in shape, previously she would spend time in the gym and spend money on expensive anti wrinkle creams however she now enjoys the luxury of not caring what anybody else thinks. She always tries to look classy but moving from rural England to Florida is enough of a culture shock to change anybody. Her former wardrobe of cashmere sweaters and pant suits had to go as she bought a closet of maxi dresses and casual skirts. Her hair is short and a silvery blonde. She wears enough makeup to cover blemishes and wrinkles yet not enough to look unnatural. She doesn’t want to be one of those women who dress like a 20 something. She remains demure, aware of her age and dressed appropriately, however she rarely doesn’t wear high heels. The shoes allowed her to be the same height as many of her peers, often taller. They were a vital weapon in her quest for power.

PERSONALITY Ms. Wilde is a more complicated person than any person could begin to comprehend. The many sides and roles of Naomi seem to conflict with one another; but like a diamond, there are all merely facets of one whole. While many would boil her to down to a few abrasive adjectives, (bitch, battleaxe or viper), the most immediately distinctive traits of the historian's personality are not actually her character. But rather, the stereotypes are by-products of her true nature.

When it comes down to it, Naomi Wilde is a survivor. Ruthlessly so, the woman always has her own best interests in mind, first and foremost. As she has led a trying life, the pressures and blows to her heart and mind have caused her to condense into something hard, and sharp. She is incapable of nothing if it means living to see the light of another day. Not simply because she is selfish, but because she has been exposed to a dog-eat-dog world since the cradle. Naomi, for one, has always chosen to eat.

Her ability to come out of any situation on top and in one piece is her crowning achievement, and it is the very reason that she firmly stands upon the earth with two heels, rather than having ended up six feet under a long time ago.

Naomi is an independent person because of this. She has learned to rely solely on herself, and has a great distrust of others. Naomi values those who seek to improve and do better by themselves, as she always has. Wilde is an incredibly driven person, and she'll keep working at anything to get what she wants, even if it means using her influence or wealth to do it. She is often viewed by her peers as an uncompromising tyrant, simply because she is willing to go the extra mile that others dare not enter.

She is an extremely perceptive woman, who recognizes all possible scenarios. This has aided her in becoming a force to be reckoned with both on the battle field and in the business room. Naomi is capable of twisting anything or anyone to adapt to her whim, which works ideally for leading and nurturing a new slayer and a generation of watchers.

Most important of all things, though, Naomi is an educator. She has learned, in all respects, how to think on many levels. Logic, and knowledge of the workings of human emotion, allow the woman to easily discover what it is that makes others tick. Expanding the horizons of the youth of tomorrow is of the utmost urgency and importance in her eyes, for they will one day inherit the Earth. From a personal standpoint, she has seen the influence and impressions that a teacher can leave on their pupils, and she intends to leave them with marked capability.

LIKES Apropos wit. The chance to enjoy that which she works for. Chardonnay. Success. Seeing her efforts prevail. Shaping the future. Respect. Making others weak in the knees. Putting people in their place.
DISLIKES Those with no taste. Those with no class. Those with no use. Those with no potential. Those with no purpose. Interruptions, time wasted and poor quality anything.

[/b] Hailing from Oxford, England, Naomi Wilde is descended from a long and powerful line of Watchers, the infamous Wild family. Throughout history the Wildes had always possessed a seat on the Watcher’s Council, except the notable exception of Oscar. The less said about him the better. Naomi was born the second of three daughters to Winston and Hester; she was raised on her wealthy family’s lavish estate. The dynamics of Naomi’s family life played a profound role in shaping her future goals and personality. Her father, Winston, was a domineering figure who had impossibly high standards for his children. He was cold, ruthless and unflinchingly demanding of his family. He offered little support, encouragement or love to his children. Naomi’s mother was a fragile woman who numbed herself to the tensions in her marriage and household by remaining in a constantly drunken state. The beautiful and vain Nicola was the ambitious one, always scheming to win her father’s favour… and his fortune. Norah was the rebellious one, willing to do whatever it took to win a little of her father’s attention, no matter who might get hurt as a result. Edward was carefree and playful - once he stopped caring what his father thought of him. He was Naomi’s sole friend and ally in the dysfunctional Wilde household, which was filled with power games, manipulation and secrets.

She was provided with the finest in estates and properties, cultural upbringing, private tutoring and given a wealth of social activities. From a young age, she was being groomed to one day take her place in the ranks of the upper-hierarchical society of London, to marry a rich Duke or maybe even a Prince if she was lucky - but all this halted suddenly when she was entering the stages of her teen and adolescent years.

Like their great uncle, Christian was a homosexual. Something his father disapproved of as Christian was his only male heir and he was destined to join the Watcher’s council. Something Christian had no interest in following his father’s footsteps. Shortly after his sexuality had been exposed Christian attempted to hang himself after the blow-out with their father, and it was Naomi who discovered him in time to save his life. As though fuel had been poured upon the slow burn of her rebellion and self-certainty, she began to plan to escape and make her own life for herself.

In 1972 her patients had paid off. She had completes her schooling and was ready to attend university. She craved to attend university and planned on attending King’s College in London where she would study classics. She received the best grades in her year group and attended an interview for a position in the prestigious university. However at the interview she found something entirely different. The interview was carried out by two members of the Watcher’s council. She was probed for almost six hours and partook in several aptitude tests and was asked to problem solve various riddles. She passed, with flying colours and much to her father’s distain she was asked to join the Watcher’s institute.

She attended Kings College however her classes were of an entirely different curriculum to the majority of other students. She learnt how to identify demons from teeth marks studied the biology of captured demons and was one of the few to read the true history of the world. Of the thirty students who started the training Naomi was one of the six who graduated, everything was going well until she actually joined the institute. She was a twenty two year old ready to fight the good fight and be assigned a slayer but she was placed in the library. She spent her days trolling through books looking for references and putting together information packs for watchers when she would be better spent on the field.

In the seventies she befriended the London born Slayer; Lily Lane. The two were close in age and in the dominantly male environment they grew a close friendship. Lily was a successful slayer; she managed to juggle her responsibilities as a slayer with a successful love life, something Naomi could never successfully do. She assisted Lily on the field on several occasions, yet her main role still remained in the Library. Lily was twenty two when she died; Naomi was unaware that the Council had orchestrated a plan to use Lily as bate to ensnare the notorious vampire Logan.

The council believed Lily had become reckless and felt a new slayer would be easier to control so they injected her with poison and sent her to a deathly confrontation with the slayer killer. Lily fell without saying goodbye to her best friend as Logan was brought into the base for questioning. He was tortured as the mages and witches that assembled tried to give him a soul once again, all hope seemed lost until a druid was able to complete a long forgotten ritual.

When Naomi discovered the plan she was outraged, she grabbed a stake and broke into Logan’s cell where he was being held like a dog. She was ready to dust him, however she knew that he was hurting. He was almost catatonic, in a state of shock from all of the people he had killed. She dropped the stake and embraced the vampire cradling him in her arms.

Lily spent the next several months rehabilitating Logan, she helped wean him off of human blood and see the benefits of animal blood. The two grew close, she became very fond of him, and she even believed she had fallen in love with him for a short while. She discovered the watcher’s plans for him, to keep him locked up, starve him and then use him as a weapon. She furiously objected, claiming he had a soul; they couldn’t just treat him like an animal. She was laughed out of the room by the council and she decided that enough was enough.

Using all of her cunning she helped Logan escape the vicinity and helped him board a ferry across the channel. She was ready to follow him but he asked her to remain, to stay at the Council and help change it.

As time passed Slayer’s changed, as did fashion and Naomi had a variety of hairstyles. She worked her way from Librarian to Historian, from Historian to Grand Historian and even earned a seat on the council. All the time using her manipulative e skills and whatever she could to be the best in her position. She was given lemons but she wouldn’t be contempt until she had reached the heights of her father by any means necessary. When she was appointed to the council in the late 90s she began to really change things. Ethical treatment of Slayers so none could be disposed of like Lily was all those years ago, the abolishment of the Romanian training camps she had discovered on a mission, equal opportunities for male and female Watchers. And finally in 2010 after the former chair died of a heart attack she was appointed the new Head of the Council. A position she took with much satisfaction.

In her short tenure as head of the council she has dealt with the death and calling of three slayers. Things in the world have been very messy. She has decided to visit Miami to take a personal look at the current demon climate only to discover a new slayer has been called. She was initially shocked to discover the Slayer was in such close proximity to the last but felt that maybe Miami needed her closer attention. Unaware that Logan, the demon she rehabilitated currently resided in the city.


CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT Naomi will fill the void of Watcher until we get a full time member, she will take a job at the school library posing as a student’s grandmother and retired librarian willing to help out. She will firmly integrate herself as a mentor for Eliza and as a confidante for the other members of the Scoobies however her brash attitude is likely to rub them up the wrong was at first she will win them over by showing that she has their best intentions in mind.

She will factor heavily in the Hope situation as she intensively prepares Eliza for the upcoming battle; I also don’t think she will approve of Eliza and Logan’s relationship. My intention for Naomi is to create a light hearted character in a severe situation, she will never be too far from a glass of wine even when in the library, she sees her work in Miami as some sort of sabbatical.

Her history with Logan will be touched upon in threads between Naomi/Eliza and Eliza/Logan but as I play both characters I don’t think I’ll have them in a scene together. Maybe a little one as an introduction and again in the final battle with Hope.
