Personality: Jasmine is very stubborn and headstrong yet also very compassionate, always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need. When Jasmine cares about someone, she can be very fussy and nurturing, often becoming the friend mom. She has an imaginative and optimistic mindset that she puts in her writing and believes in the best in people or, at least, she tries to. Jasmine has a strong fear of turning out to be a silenced puppet, like her mother, and adopted a strong rebellious side in retaliation, though she can be talked into doing stupid things provided she doesn't find a logical reason not to do something other than fear.
Dislikes: Being controlled, football, being mistaken for a delicate flower, country music, bullying, tofu and soy beans, getting up early, bugs (has a serious fear of them)
Powers: Jasmine has the ability to control plant life and has an accelerated healing factor which can be discovered in two ways. One is in a storyline where she gets captured and experimented on. Two is in the X-Men crossover line where the separate continuities merge and Jasmine discovers that she's a mutant.
Background story: Jasmine grew up in Texas with her gaslighting father and doormat mother. Her half-sister, Tanya, made her life miserable and never resisted rubbing her boyfriend Josh (who Jasmine was infatuated with) in her face. Jasmine's half-brother, Ken, often took stuff from her. Jasmine's father often controlled the house while manipulating her and her mother into thinking they were the problem. Jasmine ended up hanging out with hippies, being the only ones not afraid of Tanya, and got expelled for vandalism in the name of protest and to prove that she wasn't a coward. Jasmine got sent to live with her grandfather with the threat that, if she screwed up there, it would be Military School. When she got to college, that threat was replaced by losing her college fund. Jasmine took a job as well as attended college, hoping one day to get out from under her grandfather's thumb. After graduating, she found a job at the Daily Bugle as an Advice Columnist. While not her dream job, she's hoping to quit once she becomes a published writer even if she has been afraid to turn in her writing.
