Fears:
• Being unable to regenerate or heal - One of her worst fears is that someday, she will get hurt so bad her body won't be able to regenerate and heal itself.
• Being Alone - She's afraid that she'll lose her friends, or that they will leave her. The feeling of being all alone is one of the worst feelings in the world.
Hobbies:
• Dancing - Just something she started doing when she was little, and continued on till now. She loves how expressive it is, and can be found randomly twirling or dancing when she's happy.
• Reading - Milly is an avid reader, she's always buried in a book.
• Swimming - Amelia likes to keep up her endurance and strength, so she swims a lot. She visits the pool often.
Powers:
Regeneration - Amelia can rapidly recreate lost or damaged tissues, organs and limbs. Any wound that gets inflicted on her can easily heal as her body regenerates the damaged tissues. The rate and amount of healing varies widely, and at her best, she can regenerate a broken bone, and maybe even a limb, though she hasn't tried. She has yet to master her powers.
Immunity - Her power generally keeps her in very good shape physically, as her body is constantly reverting to a healthy state. Amelia is immune to some, if not all, known poisons, toxins, venoms, viruses, and bacteria. She is also immune to diseases, and weirdly, alcohol. She is at the peak physical and mental condition, entailing that she's faster, stronger, and more agile.
Pain Suppression - Amelia can block pain at will, though she's not so good at it yet, she can only do it with lower levels of pain, like cuts, bruises, and abrasions. She can only dull higher levels of pain slightly.
Decelerated Aging - There is a possibility of slowing, or even stopping, aging, but she hasn't reached that level of mastery yet. It might be possible when she's much older.
Weakness:
Severe injuries, like a broken bone or anything worse, takes a lot of energy to regenerate. This results in extreme fatigue after her body works to heal a wound of that level. After something like that, she can't do much till she gets some rest.
Offensive attacks are something she isn't good at. She might be in peak physical condition, but she doesn't really know how to fight. Defensive is her strong suit, but attacking someone else is a different story.
If anyone threatens her friends, she gets really angry. Them, and her family are her weaknesses.
Strengths:
• Sports - Amelia is exceptionally good at sports, especially with her powers paired with her competitive personality. Her favorite sport so far is swimming.
• Dancing - She's been dancing forever, and after years of practice, she's gotten quite good.
• Maintaining Grades - She does well academically, especially at english and science, her two favorite subjects.
Flaws:
• Anxiety - She gets very anxious and nervous around others, people she doesn't know. With her friends, she's completely open, but with people she's not friends with, she can turn into a nervous wreck. She often twists her hair around her finger.
• Clumsy - Amelia is hopelessly clumsy, to a point of hurting herself at least twice a day. And bruise here, a scrape there. She never really worked on becoming less clumsy because she never found a reason to. She can just heal herself, so why bother?
• Temper - While not a lot of people have seen this side of her, she can get quite angry given the situation. If someone provokes her, she goes and does something impulsive and not effective.
Personality:
Amelia is a very kind person, always with a smile on her face and a cheery greeting. She's always one to start a conversation with her friends, and help out if need be. She lends a listening ear to anyone who needs it, and talks out any problems. Milly is always willing to give anything, and do anything for her friends, and has a hard time saying no -- unless she doesn't know you. Whenever someone cracks a joke, she'll probably be the loudest to laugh.
Outside of her circle of friends, Amelia is usually quiet and shy. She wouldn't normally talk to anyone who doesn't initiate a conversation first, unless she has to. Talking to people she doesn't know well, or like, gets her really anxious. Sometimes she has a hard time saying things, and does quirky things like play with her hair nervously, or bite her lip. If she gains enough confidence with a person, weather it's because she likes them, or strongly dislikes them, she comes out of her shell.
Amelia has compassion for her friends and the people around her. They might not notice it, but it's in the little things she does. She can go to great lengths to protect someone, or help them in any way. It's her way of showing others that she's someone to be trusted or liked.
While she seem shy to others, her friends see a completely different side of her. She's constantly laughing, joking, and open. Easily starting conversations, she is always entertaining. Her charisma is shown to people other than her friends infrequently, but it happens.
When she's out on the field, or in the pool, her shyness completely goes away. When playing a sport, or even a small game for that matter, she gets increasingly competitive. She can get very aggressive, and at times temperamental if she doesn't win.
No matter how much someone has wronged her, Amelia has a tendency to always try and find the good in people. Even if they don't deserve it, she acknowledges their goodness, though she might not show outwardly.
She does very well in school, easily understanding what is being taught. She can absorb lots of information, and knows when to use it, which is essentially a surefire way to get good grades. Solving problems logically is something that comes naturally to her, thinking through different outcomes and strategies. She isn't one to sit down and study a lot, quite frankly she hates the idea of sitting and going over school material when she could be doing something else, like reading a book or swimming.
Despite her sweet personality, she's always guarded towards others. Her emotions are something she rarely discusses. She feels that talking about her feelings and telling others is a sign of weakness, and she doesn't like to trouble others with that kind of stuff. She would much rather let someone else talk to her about something, as she's always there to lend a listening ear.

History:
Amelia was born to Asher Veris and Olivia Veris. Growing up, she had a great childhood. Her father is a general surgeon, while her mother is a dance instructor. Her parents influenced her interests in Science and dance. Her mother taught her all different styles of dancing from a very young age, and it became a part of who she was. Countless days were spent preparing dance recitals for her family. As for her father, he was a role model to her, and she was so proud that he helped people everyday. At school, she quickly excelled at science, guided by her dad.
In school, she discovered her talent for sports, namely track, soccer, and swimming. She joined every possible sport she could during the school year. She would practice with her dad in the backyard, and always managed to do well. Even he had to struggle to keep up with her. On one such day, Amelia was kicking the ball around, getting it past her dad when she tripped over the ball, and fell, gashing her knees. When she sat up, the tissues in the cut began regenerating, the blood stopped, and her skin stitched itself together cell by cell. She was shocked, though her parents weren't. Unknown to her, both of them had powers themselves - Asher has [url=http://powerlistin[/url]g.wikia.com/wiki/Biological_Manipulation]Biological Manipulation[/url], while her mother has Power Replication. They kept it a secret from her till then, when she was 11. Since then, she's been working on honing her powers with her parents helping.
Quickly progressing with her powers, she kept on at her sports throughout middle school. She discovered she could do other things with her powers than just heal and regenerate, like suppress pain, and her immunity to diseases. By the time high school came around, she was in many sports teams, usually varsity. Her particular favorite was swimming, she loved being in the water. At school, she wasn't the most popular, though it didn't bother her since she made so many great friends. Bullying was never a problem with her because she was always usually really nice, and no one bothered to mess with her - what would be the point? Her favorite subjects became Science, namely biology, and English.
Other:
• She's immune to the effects of alcohol. She learned that when she drank once, it was a one time thing. No matter how much she drinks, her body doesn't get affected.
