Background:
Dr. Ginerva Davies was a recent graduate with her PH.D. in hematology and a secondary degree in pharmaceutics and had just started research into genetics and how to cure hereditary blood disorders such as sickle cell disease and thalassemia. She worked at the University of Alabama's research department on this, and was on the verge of a breakthrough when costumed henchmen under an unknown entity's orders attacked the laboratory, seemingly seeking a cure for their benefactor. There was an accident, and in the aftermath, she discovered strange new powers.
The White Cauldron can heal physical damage to others by absorbing the pain and growing tissue needed to make the wound seem like it never existed. As such, her senses of pain are dulled while her body fixes the parts that are missing. Wounds that cause far too much damage to the body are not fully curable, as she currently needs time to do this process. During healing she is vulnerable to attacks of all kinds as she goes into a trance of sorts while she does this. Currently she has no offensive capabilities.
Her alter-ego, Ginny Davies, lives in a rather small one bedroom apartment and works as a doctor in a small community clinic. She has recently moved into town, trying to escape the unknown villain that attacked the UAB medical facility.
Description:
Ginny is short, about 5'0", and of average weight, 125 lbs. She has red gold hair she keeps in a loose bun at work and a braided ponytail when not, when left down, it goes to the middle of her back. She is pale with freckles and wears large glasses over her dark green eyes (mostly for show, when she became White Cauldron, her eyesight healed itself), and is usually seen at the clinic in one of two pairs of black dress pants and either a dark hunter green tunic length blouse or a dark blue blouse of the same style, ballet flats, and her lab coat. When not working in the clinic, she wears blue jeans and t-shirts with various movies and game logos and a pair of worn sneakers.
As White Cauldron, her hair is kept down, but away from her face by a white headband, and she wears a white sleeveless dress that goes to her mid-thighs (and a pair of white biker shorts beneath) with red fingerless gloves that are long enough to go past her elbow, and red thigh high socks with white boots. Her facial features are covered by a white mask (her costume she bought piecemeal).
Hobbies:
Not that Ginny gets much time off from the clinic or her current moonlighting as a healer-hero...
She reads comic books of all nationalities, her particular favorites being Valerian and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, and reads nearly exclusively science fiction and fantasy (with a few detective novels thrown in), her favorites there being the Prydain Chronicles and The Dark is Rising series.
She plays video games after work to relax, and chooses rpgs and adventure games mostly than anything else, she needs something to actually take her mind off of work. She also goes to the movies near religiously.
She has started to knit, and is currently volunteering in a program her clinic put together to ensure that the children in that neighborhood have hats and scarfs for winter. In her bag, there is always a ball of yarn and her current project, plus a 3DS loaded with a game, and a book.
Family:
Her parents died in an accident when she was still an undergraduate. She has no living relatives. Her father was a doctor and her mother a pharmacist. She is from a small town in north eastern Alabama.
