Christa Whiterend

Overview
Christa is a Corporal of SOFB, and specializes in hand-to-hand combat, but is proficient with a gun. She is albino and severely near-sighted, so she wears contacts that change her eyes to appear to be greyish-white and helps her eyesight. She helps Shades with her emotional issues.

"Treat people the way you were treated, and the exact same way. Not that other crap about being nice. That never works, and I've tried."

(Christa to Sophia)

Early Life
Her father was actually accepting the treatment, and it transferred to her mother, and then to Christa. She grew up in London, and she graduated college at 8. When her parents died, she was given to her uncle, who was a severe drug user, and he was abusive to Christa. She had self-esteem issues, so she was bulimic and anorexic, and the problem has not solved itself. She was placed in foster homes for 2 years, until she was taken by the government and given to Shades.

Personality and Appearance
She's peaceful. Christa's casual attire includes a white tank top or a white long sleeved shirt. She wears grey pants and white shoes.
 * Adaptable: She knows Shades's moods.
 * Indifferent: She is always okay with pretty much anything.
 * Peaceful: She is quite reluctant about killing someone, but to later discover it was for the better.
 * Curious: This often leads to trouble.
 * Brainless: She will act without thinking, such as eating a poisonous plant.
 * Nosy: She always wants to know what's going on with everyone else.

Her war attire is a black leather tunic with white accents.

Her sleepwear is a black dress with white slippers.

She refuses to go to the beach, so she has no beach wear.

Epilogue
Christa is 31 in the epilogue, and is married to a veteran, and she has 3 kids, but has chosen to reside in the SOFB. Christa decided not to train the children for war until they are old enough to decide for themselves whether or not they want to go to war. She is trying to allow the kids to see other children, but due to their invisibility powers, it's very difficult.
