Name: Gypsy Calvin
Age: 28
Sex: Female
Appearance: Small of build, lithe and fit. Gyspy is pretty with big dark, trusting eyes and a ready smile. Her skin is pale and her hair is mousey brown, shoulder length - though it is not unusual for her to dye her hair absurd colors.
Gypsy has two tattoos - one of a rose on the small of her back that she got during her rebellious teens - and another of an ankh on the nape of her neck.
She has no real scars to speak of. She wears conservative clothing most of the time - high necks to her jumpers, scarves, mismatched colors and jeans mostly when not in work clothes.
Personality: Bubbly most of the time! Gypsy is the life and soul of any party. She is intelligent, precise and yet fun all the same. She has a bright, eager smile and likes to talk to people about themselves, she likes to sing, dance, read, play music - anything that lets her deny the life she has at home.
Gypsy is quite a private person - she keeps herself to herself and gets a little nervous if people ask too many questions about her.
Job Description: Senior Airman - MP & medic at the SGC
Race: Human
Home World: Earth
History: Gyspy was born to American parents living in Egypt - hence her name. Her parents moved around alot when she was young - finally settling in England for Gypsy's teenage years. The young girl got involved with the wrong crowds during her school years and her parents, seeking to distance her from said crowd, moved from England before Gypsy finished her education.
They moved back to the United States and almost at once Gypsy went and joined the Air Force. Her bubbly energy was quite suited to the Air Force and she trained as a medic in her spare time. It was during these years of training that Gyspy met her husband, Tomas. He was of English extraction and his bubbly personality was just what Gypsy needed in her life - the two playing off each other. They married after a short courtship and almost immediately the novelty of their similar natures wore off.
Tomas started to display a violent side to himself and Gypsy didn't know what to do. She tries to deny that it happens at all and does her best to prevent anyone ever finding out about it - her cheery nature now a cover for the misery of her married life.
Tomas is an MP also - at Area 51.
Strengths/Weaknesses: Easy going, fun and bright. Gyspy's real weakness is her unwillingness to admit that her husband does anything wrong to her. She is very much aware of her surroundings and is a stickler for the rules despite her rebellious teen years.
Canon/Own character: OWN
Sample Post (Not less than 150 words):
Gypsy stood on the outcrop of rocks looking around with the amazement of a child at the foreign landscape surrounding them. A great white city rose from the foothills of a mountain and down by the swerving river there was another gigantic city - like a medieval city somehow with it's high stone walls and towers. A large field connected the two and it was the only way of reaching the city. So much for going in unnoticed.
Still, there was no point in going back.
The DHD for the Stargate was no longer there -- she needed more than just herself to find a way to get the damn thing to dial out. Three days her and the Specialist Mark had been traipsing thruogh the rocky terrain. It was not unpleasant company but Gypsy longed for a shower... and some proper cooked food. She would chew her own arm for a cup of coffee!
"Hey -- I don't think there's any point in waiting for dark too approach Sir. It is a well defended city and they might think badly of us for trying to sneak in in the dark." Gypsy grinned, taking a water pouch from her belt and took a swig, offering it to Mark companionably.
