She was born with a genetic predisposition to the elements, a supernatural ability that was both frightening and enthralling in its power. Her mother gave her that as well as her name, Bastet.
Bastet's life, to her knowledge, began on a military base. Her father's military rank was unknown but she suspected he had to be important in order for him to get sent to as many countries as he did, and for every new place was a new alias. For both of them. Ever in his shadow the girl was quick to explore every culture, monument, and history; ever hungry for knowledge. Though her father demanded she be escorted every moment, in every place no matter the situation. The girl grew up more sheltered then you'd think possible.
Now every time she sought to explore her own heritage she could find nothing. Not her Mother's name, her place of birth, nor anything about any blood relatives. To her it seemed like everything about her, her parents, their heritage, was to remain a secret. Her mind was filled with unanswered questions for many years, Why would her father never talk about her Mother? Was her ability to manipulate air the reason she was always watched and studied by her father's associates? Was she dangerous? Was her mother dangerous?
Searching for the answers led her to do the unthinkable and break the code her father had diligently tried to teach her. One night when her father was away she broke into the safe and discovered a burgeoning file that kept a record of all the supernatural 'outbursts' she had gone through during the course of her life. Unwilling to be a guinea pig to the government any longer she left both her Father and the military lifestyle behind to find her own way.
Revisiting countries around the world gave her the freedom to indulge in all the things that were restricted to her before. At first she attempted to learn different languages from observing the populace, reading the books. But she soon discovered that she had an uncanny ability to absorb the language and culture around, though she could only retain the information from one culture at a time. Whether her brain was not proficient enough to retain ALL the information or this was a severe drawback to her ability is unknown.
After only a few short months Bastet was broke, it wasn't easy making money legitimately; too much paperwork, too many questions. At times she was forced to become a petty thief just to feed herself. But in Thailand everything changed. There she made the acquaintance of a professional, someone who showed her another side to life, another side of herself even. Her partner tended to keep her as a watchdog of sorts, while he pillaged, she kept him from being detected, even cleaned up his messes a time or two. But 'tuning herself in' to her surroundings took on a frightening twist when she saw things not only of the physical plane. So strong was the ability that in some places she felt as if danger lurked around every corner, as if at all times they were being watched, judged, sentenced... In reality there was no living creatures bearing witness to their crime but those of another ilk, those of an otherworldly race. It didn't take long for her partner to leave her behind. His own sense of self preservation outweighing Bastet's usefulness.
This was a repetitive cycle that lasted a few years. Going from one job to the next, staying with whatever organization, partner, etc., until they became too suspicious of her unique talents. Since her 21st birthday she chose to go solo, no longer surfacing in different cities, states, or even countries. Essentially off the grid for 3+ years. Why? She was looking for something..
Spoiler:
Since this was a pre-existing character created for the PINK Roleplay I will be referencing her brief experiences there. Instead of adding to an already long bio I have linked for reference.

I am many things,
great and terrible,
I have many faces,
sombre and maniacal,
I use many voices,
sensuous and sibilant
and if you cannot fathom the true depth of me,
never considering how I've come to be,
than you can go fuck yourself and leave me be.
