THE APPEARANCE
Micah is of an average height, standing only five foot, seven inches tall. She is unassuming in her stature, with medium brown hair that falls to mid-back in unruly waves. Micah's eyes are a shade darker than her hair, and are extremely expressive; it isn't easy for her to hide her emotions. She dresses in casual attire, when not in semi-casual wear at the office, and in character when undercover. Micah prefers to wear little to no make-up, and tends to keep her hair down; occasionally it will be up in a ponytail.
THE PERSONALITY
Micah is headstrong and highly opinionated. She is self-assured, and at times cocky - especially in the face of a perp. When interrogating a person of interest, she is often the 'bad cop', and is aggressive in her mannerism. This is an exaggerated version of Micah, as she is quite verbal and can escalate to physical when pushed far enough. As a cop, her techniques can be a bit crude or outside the box, but the effects are her having a nearly flawless record. Everything about Micah screams do-good-er, as she can't stand people that take advantage of their freedoms. She strives to lock away all of those who would break the law. She is beyond loyal, and holds those she loves close to her heart, even if they butt heads from time to time. Her one greatest fear is that her best friend, Kaelyn Riordan, might be hurt or killed due to a failure on Micah's part.
THE HISTORY
BIRTH PLACE: Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America
Micah was born the last of three children, and the only girl. She knew from the start that her family had wanted another boy, and for the most part, that shaped her development. Micah played baseball and soccer with her brothers, hung out with the guys and wore boy's clothing as she grew up. The complete tomboy, Micah learned quickly how to play fast and loose as a child. Her rough and tumble older brothers passed the police exam and became beat cops. They were always protective of Mic, but they became even more so as she matured and began to garner masculine attention. Micah got her nose into everything, seeing mysteries where there may or may not have been one in her neighborhood. She was occasionally known to do weird things like dig through the trash bins for "evidence".
The older she got, the more quirky she became. Oddities grew more obsessive, and the stress built up between Paula and Joseph, to the boiling point. After an explosive fight - Micah hid herself under the bed in her room - Joseph stormed from the house, and filed for divorce the following morning. Paula opened a bakery in order to pay the bills. Naturally, Micah had no interest in the place, aside from the offer of free food from time to time. Her older brother went off into the world - scheming and gambling all the way - and she entered high school with almost no disasters. After she graduated, Micah enrolled at the local college, in their police program. Her mother was both proud and worried that her only daughter would get hurt.
Micah set an example for her younger brother Frankie. She worked hard and played harder, never giving life a moment of peace. Naturally the fiery tempered girl did well in her courses, having put all of her effort into them. There she met plenty of friends - mostly boys - who she would keep for life, growing a base of support. After passing her classes, with average grades, Micah took the detective's exam and was welcomed into the Boston Police Department as a beat cop, and later as a Homicide detective. Micah worked at the BPD for seven solid years, giving her best for the system. There, Micah met her best and closest friend, Kaelyn Riordan. She and Kae worked together as partners; Kae handled the medical aspects of it, and Micah covered the streets.
Unfortunately for Mic, her curiosity often got her into more trouble than it solved. She dug in too deep and discovered a cover-up. There was a ring of dirty cops, corrupting the system. Micah felt it was her duty to oust these malicious men and women, who were a cancerous cell in the Department. However, the conspiracy didn't let her walk away that easily, and in the end she was sent away in shame, her reputation in shatters. Micah had nailed quite a few asses to the wall in her pursuit of justice, and some of the higher ups were not pleased with her tenacity at rooting out people inside their system. These high ranking officials bent the law as well, and Mic's nosing around could cost them everything. So they took her out of Homicide, but left her as a Private Investigator so as not to raise too many suspicious eyebrows.
Micah took it in stride, and became a private investigator, and continued to hunt down wrong-doers. She soon found that strange people were coming to her, asking her to investigate such odd occurrences. Kae also left the mainstream BPD and joined Micah in her new business. Their P.I business - dubbed Living Proof - grew rapidly, despite Micah's tarnished reputation. The two women slaved many extra hours, searching for the truth - something the BPD was either too lazy or too afraid to look for. She might not believe in the supernatural, but it believes in her and it's slowly forcing it's way into her life in the form of vampires seeking her help. Whether she knows it or not, life's about to take another turn.
