Current Characters: Daisy Johnson
IC Info
Name: Claire Novak
Canon: Supernatural
Age: 21
Appearance: female, blonde, blue-eyed, 5'5'', slender, long wavy hair
Canon Point: beginning of S13E10 'Wayward Sisters'
Background: Wiki link
Personality: During her time on Supernatural Claire grows up into a young woman and her personality changes along with that. When we first meet Claire she is only a child, a little girl who has been taught by her loving parents to be a devout Christian like they are and have faith in God and his plan.
But after the angel Castiel interferes with her life, first taking her father Jimmy from her for a year and then when he has just come back to her and her mother Amelia taking him once more, this time forever, this changes drastically. Claire ends up in foster care after her grandmother dies, having been left with her when Amelia leaves in search of her husband, and the system is not kind to her. She becomes angry and jaded in a way that no girl her age should be, disappointed by life and left behind by the family she loved, and tends to lash out, to hide her own pain and vulnerability behind a mask of indifference and biting jokes. Quick to curse and be unnecessarily mean towards others, she builds a wall between herself and the world around her, unwilling to let anyone penetrate it, too afraid that she will end up broken-hearted again should she allow herself to get attached to anyone.
This part of who she is and how she acts is in stark contrast to how caring and protective Claire is. Her occupation as a hunter is born out of a need to help others and save people from suffering a fate like her own at the hands of supernatural creatures. After she goes to live with Jody Mills, who becomes her adoptive mother, Claire has a hard time adjusting to a normal life, so instead of going to community college the way Jody wanted her to, Claire starts going on hunts by herself. While she doesn't want to worry the people she cares about and pretends that everything is fine, her desire to help other people and become a hunter is stronger. This also shows how stubborn and reckless she can be, putting other people's needs above her own.
One probably wouldn't expect a girl who has lost her parents to forgive and even befriend the being who caused this, but that is exactly what eventually happens with Claire and Castiel – as well as Dean Winchester who similarly killed Randy, a man who gave Claire a home in exchange for her stealing for him. When she meets him again, Castiel is trying to act as a father figure to her which she initially rejects completely. She notices however that the angel has changed in the years since they saw each other and sees that he genuinely wants to help her, eventually helping her find her mother (alongside the Winchesters) even if they ultimately can not save her despite their best efforts. It may be hard for her initially to look at Cas' face since it his her father's she reaches the realization that they are not the same but that Cas truly cares about her as a person and wants her to be happy and safe. She also grows to trust Sam and Dean Winchester who come to Claire's help when she needs them several times and they also entrust her to their friend sheriff Jody Mills' care after she loses her mother and she has nowhere to go to. In Jody and her other adopted daughter Alex Claire finds a new family. Since Claire doesn't typically hug people, it is a clear sign of trust, affection, and forgiveness when she does eventually hug Castiel, Sam, and Dean. Claire can generally be quite cagey when it comes to talking about her feelings, but after she is briefly turned into a werewolf and almost dies, Claire gives Jody a phone call and tells her she is her mom in the resulting voicemail she leaves.
Weaknesses/Temptations: Claire isn't a particularly hedonistic person, but she is all about helping people and feeling useful in her role as a hunter. She may pretend to be tough and indifferent to other people, but that is as far from reality as it possibly could be. She cares about people - her family (chosen and otherwise) first and foremost - deeply and is willing to make sacrifices to protect others.
Sins: - Murder (multiple counts)
- Unauthorized possession and use of firearms
- Impersonating officers of the law
- Property damage
- Assault (multiple counts)
- Underage drinking
Powers/Abilities: None! Just a normal squishy human girl. There is a tiny remnant of the angel Castiel's grace left within her that may very subtly speed up her ability to heal (read: hematoma would take 5 days to heal up instead of 6), but it's not noticeable or life-saving. It's mostly just there and can be detected by others.
Claire is however a capable fighter, both with her angel sword and guns. She isn't the strongest at hand-to-hand since she lacks the mass but makes up for it with enthusiasm and tenacity.
Items: - Her angel sword
- The journal her mother Amelia kept
- The grumpy cat plush Cas gave her
- The gun Dean gave her
- Her phone (incl. family photos and music)
- The Enochian lore book Dean gave her
