Hi--Say Hi To My Little Friend (Fan Fic Character)

Hi everyone.  

One of the things that I was struggling with recently was pinning down a name for my fan fic character.  She's existed for a while, but I kept trying to change her name to something else.

I originally wanted her to be a tribute to Victoria Justice and some of her film and TV characters.  As a character, she is that, but that's where the hang up on the name began.  Originally I was going to make her name a composite of VJ's character names.   So for a while I settled on Naomi Ramona Vega.  I then decided that I wanted something a bit more original sounding.  That's where I finally settled on her name.

So now, allow me to introduce my little friend, Ashley Naomi Bonner.  

First, her appearance.  If you've seen any photo of Victoria Justice from 2010-present, or watch an episode of Victorious or the film Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List, that's basically what Ashley looks like.  She's moderately tall for a woman, slender yet toned and somewhat shapely, with high cheekbones, long dark brown hair and chocolate brown eyes.  

Ashley has an eclectic sense of style, like Victoria, Tori and Naomi.  She'll wear just about anything if she likes it or thinks it's comfortable.  She's very much a T-shirt/tanktop/jeans/sneakers/Vans/flip flops girl.  She likes getting dressy on occasion, and loves wearing nail polish and doing her hair.  

As for her most important aspect, personality, again, look at VJ, Tori or Naomi, especially Victoria and Tori.  However, she does have an edge.  She's normally overwhelmingly nice, courteous, generous, and has an infectious smile and brightens the morale of people around her easily.

This is actually where we slightly get into supernatural aspects.  Her creation was influenced by the Twilight Saga and the Japanese manga and anime series Bio-Booster Armor Guyver.  Which isn't much of a surprise, given that my fan fic are based on Twilight and Guyver.  

Ashley is part human, part vampire.  In specific, Ashley is 3/4 vampire, and 1/4 human.  Her biological father is fully vampire, her mother is a vampire hybrid.   Getting into that, her biological father is Joham from Twilight, an amoral "scientist" who breeds part vampire children.  Ash from the start developed (even in the womb) a disdain for her father.   She's on excellent terms with her mother and adoptive father, though, as well as her siblings, though she likes some better than others based on personality.

As far as special talents or abilities, Ash can influence the mood of people near her, and she can also read minds to an extent.  She also, even compared to vampires and other hybrids, does poses above average strength and agility.  She's also excellent with handling weapons like knives, swords and firearms.  

That said, she abhors violence, and will only resort to such actions only when necessary.  She also gravitates to people with similar thoughts and virtues.  She's an extremely peaceful and pleasant person.  That being said, don't threaten her, or especially her family or loved ones.  Or any innocent people, for that matter.  That side of her does intimate others, especially those who aspire to do evil to others.  Her physical beauty also intimidates others, even with her exceptionally kind and gentle nature.  Granted, once befriended, Ashley shows that no one under normal circumstances has any reason to fear her.

That all being written and said, don't do anything to make her extremely angry or upset.  She's got a very low tolerance for innocent people being victimized, and one way or another, you'll regret gaining her ire.  

That's Ashley's place in the canon of my stories and what led to her creation.  Also, as a lot of you know, I have this huge crush on Victoria Justice and have for over a year now.  And prior to that I was a casual fan of hers dating back to 2015.  I originally had an idea as kinda a tribute to her by making her and her characters into a composite named Jennifer, a character from Twilight that was mentioned in the text of Breaking Dawn.  But then I decided to make her an all original, stand alone character.  Basically a clean slate.

So that's what lead to the creation of this character.  I hope you like her :)
