.:History:.
When Felicia turned eighteen the curse began.
Her mother explained to her that when she was pregnant with her first born she overheard, using her telepathic abilities, a dark witch's plot to overtake Camelot. So she told the King and the witch's attempt was thwarted. The witch found her mother and told her that a curse would befall her. The curse was that if any of her children had the telepathic power, then that power would eventually make them insane. It would eat away at them like cancer. Slowly taking away all energy and strength until there is nothing left.
For years she thought nothing would happen as for generations the power only ever occured in females and as she had only ever had boys she thought she was safe. Until, Felicia.
Growing up Felicia always knew she was different. She could hear thoughts of other, albeit it only whispers or cut off thoughts, and only when she was really concentrating. Nothing happened for years, she was happy, like any other child.
Then when she turned eighteen, when she was jsut getting a hang of her power, things began to change. It was only her and her mother now, her mother nearly always working as a seamstress. Felicia slowly started to lose grip on her power, then her strength started to weaken, then pain started to overtake her. At times her head was in so much pain it felt like it would explode. This all drained what was of Felicia. Her mother had to quit work to care for her. Some days just holding a spoon was too much effort. Her moods got so bad sometimes her mother had to leave.
Worse was yet to come, and brings us up to the present day.
Her mother leaves her hidden in the basement, so people couldn't hear her screams, and goes shopping. She hasn't come back!
Felicia now needs to take care of herself. She hasn't been outside in five years. Will she brave it?
