Hi there everyone this is the bio for my OC character Stardust. I hope no one minds that I based her off of me so everything except the weapons and background story mentioned here about Stardust is also about me. I'll also be putting descriptions for the all the medical disorders listed for those individuals who happen to not know what they are or what they cause( all info came from Wikipedia ad a few medical websites). Sorry for any spelling and grammar errors through out the story I'll do my best to minimize this. I don't own any of the 9 charaters ownly Stardust.

Medical Disorders: Aspergers syndrome, Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), Anxiety, depression, and reading and language disorder. Star's reading and language disorder is that she can read words perfectly fine but has difficulty spelling them or pronouncing them right.
Asperger syndrome is an autism spectrum disorder, and people with it therefore show significant difficulties in social interaction, along with restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and differs from other autism spectrum disorders by its relative preservation of linguistic and cognitive development. Although not required for diagnosis, physical clumsiness and atypical use of language are frequently individuals improve over time, but difficulties with communication, social adjustment and independent living continue into adulthood. Some researchers and people with Asperger's have advocated a shift in attitudes toward the view that it is a difference, rather than a disability that must be treated or cured.
Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD or AD/HD) is a neuro-behavioral developmental disorder. ADHD is a common chronic disorder in children with 30 to 50% of those individuals diagnosed in childhood continuing to have symptoms into adulthood. Adolescents and adults with ADHD tend to develop a coping mechanisms to compensate for some or all of their impairments. Though previously regarded as a childhood diagnosis, ADHD can continue throughout adulthood. 4.7 percent of American adults are estimated to live with ADHD. ADHD is diagnosed two to four times as frequently in boys as in girls, though studies suggest this discrepancy may be due to subjective bias of referring teachers. ADHD management usually involves some combination of medications, behavior modifications, lifestyle changes, and counseling. Its symptoms can be difficult to differentiate from other disorders, increasing the likelihood that the diagnosis of ADHD will be missed or vice versa. Additionally, most clinicians have not received formal training in the assessment and treatment of ADHD, particularly in adult patients.
Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental disorder characterized by intrusive thoughts that produce anxiety, by repetitive behaviors aimed at reducing anxiety, or by combinations of such thoughts (obsessions) and behaviors (compulsions). The symptoms of this anxiety disorder range from repetitive hand-washing and extensive hoarding to preoccupation with sexual, religious, or aggressive impulses. They can also range from difficulty with odd numbers to nervous habits such as opening a door and closing it a certain number of times before one leaves it either open or shut. These symptoms can be alienating and time-consuming, and often cause severe emotional and economic loss.
Anxiety is a psychological and physiological state characterized by cognitive, somatic, emotional, and behavioral components. These components combine to create an unpleasant feeling that is typically associated with uneasiness, apprehension, fear, or worry. Anxiety is a generalized mood condition that can often occur without an identifiable triggering stimulus. As such, it is distinguished from fear, which occurs in the presence of an observed threat. Additionally, fear is related to the specific behaviors of escape and avoidance, whereas anxiety is the result of threats that are perceived to be uncontrollable or anxiety becomes excessive, it may fall under the classification of an anxiety disorder. Someone suffering from anxiety might also experience it as a sense of dread or does not only consist of physical effects; there are many emotional ones as well. They include "feelings of apprehension or dread, trouble concentrating, feeling tense or jumpy, anticipating the worst, irritability, restlessness, watching (and waiting) for signs (and occurrences) or danger, and, feeling like your minds gone blank" as well as "nightmares/bad dreams, obsessions about sensations, deja vu, a trapped in your mind feeling, and feeling like everything is scary."
Depression: In the 1950s and '60s, depression was divided into two types, endogenous and neurotic. Endogenous means that the depression comes from within the body, perhaps of genetic origin, or comes out of nowhere. Neurotic or reactive depression has a clear environmental precipitating factor, such as the death of a spouse, or other significant loss, such as the loss of a job. A depressive disorder is a syndrome (group of symptoms) that reflects a sad and/or irritable mood exceeding normal sadness or grief. More specifically, the sadness of depression is characterized by a greater intensity and duration and by more severe symptoms and functional disabilities than is normal. Depressive signs and symptoms are characterized not only by negative thoughts, moods, and behaviors but also by specific changes in bodily functions (for example, crying spells, body aches, low energy or libido, as well as problems with eating, weight, or sleeping). The functional changes of clinical depression are often called neuro-vegetative signs. This means that the nervous system changes in the brain causing many physical symptoms that result in diminished participation and a decreased or increased activity level.
Background story: Star has been around since the beginning of the war with the machines, since she used to be human. She knew the scientist and considered him her grandfather (often calling him grandpa). When the war started to break out her family fell victim to the machines. Star managed to get away alive but just barely, taking refuge in a normal looking house. The house she hide in was none other then the scientist's, who soon found her slowly bleeding to death. After cleaning and dressing her wounds up the scientist couldn't find it in his heart to send her back outside to her death so he let her stay with him. During her stay she got to learn a lot on not only the Scientist but the stitchpunks and their anatomy (which will come in handy later on) in which he was creating. Star then got the idea to make one of her own. She had always had a love for dragons and magic so she made her stitchpunk look as unique and beautiful as she saw dragons. She unlike the scientist instead of transferring parts of her soul, she transferred her whole soul in to her knew form. The scientist was against her idea at first but soon decided that it was her choice on what to do with her soul so he let her do what she had to do, little did she know though she was going to be asleep for a long time before waking up in her new body. Star's stitchpunk dragoness form looks kind of cat-like from a distance but on closer inspection she has a dog/wolf shaped head with cat-like ears, a lion like tail, wolf or cat-like hind legs, human like arms and hands for writing, drawing or picking things up, bird-like wings, and has a slight mane on her head. She also has tiger-like stripes on her legs and arms but spots like a leopard on her torso and tail making her a rather strange and unique sight indeed. Star can walk on two legs or on all fours but she prefers to use all fours when running or fighting for it's a lot easier and faster. Also, for reference, she doesn't have fur covering her body but her body is made from a velvet like fabric and her front is sown up tightly with blue thread she likes to carry with her in her stichpunk sized backpack with her other things. Because she has been hiding away in a secret room underneath the library, she has been able to learn many different things, like the twins 3 and 4 she likes to read and learn from the past. She has also been practicing the ancient and sacred art of magic and has become quite good. Star has been practicing healing and resurrection spells but they require a lot of magic energy to preform, so that she can help any fallen stitchpunks when the time is right. After a rather tense and awkward introduction she meets the last surviving stitchpunks. Star becomes saddened when she finds out the fates of 1, 2, 5, 6, and 8. After spending a month or so with 9, 7, 4, and 3, Star decides she wants to bring the others back to life. But to do this would drain her magic energy drastically and might leave her at deaths doorstep once she was done but she would be more then happy to do it for her new friends. When they found out it was Star that brought the others back to life and suffered drastically, 9, 7, and the twins where shocked and amazed that Star would to do something like that just to make them happy. She feels it is her mission in life to make others happy and give second chances to those who need it even if it means dieing in the process.
