Character History: Mistie was born as the younger child to Dr. and Mrs. Baker, a happily-married couple living in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. As a child, she was a ball of energy and rarely sat still, often bugging her big brother. It wasn't until her parents introduced her to Star Trek and Star Wars that she was able to sit still, watching the television with wide eyes. The costumes, the Force, everything was wonderful.
As a preteen, her interests pegged her as a nerd and was not accepted by the other girls in her age group. even the other nerdy boys didn't seem to like her, almost distrusting of her. But she made her own way, content to be who she was no matter what. even if she was picked on by the cheerleaders. High school was no different and her excellent grades pegged her as a teacher's pet as well as a 'nerd-brain'. Which she supposed were actually true statements.
She had a love for science and decided to pursue that as a career, attending Tufts University and sort of feeling like she fit in. By that time people were a bit more accepting of geeky people and she discovered others like her. University was really where she got into cosplaying and LARPing. She loved to be someone else, escape the reality of the world and submerge herself into a world of fantasy.
She made it through college and graduated with a Master's Degree for Chemistry. The only question left was what to do with her life. She wouldn't be content working in a lab or staring at a computer and machines for the rest of her life. She wanted variety. So she looked into teaching at a high school level, getting a teaching certificate and becoming a Chemistry teacher in Orlando for a couple of years. That was, until she got bored in Florida. There just wasn't anything nearby for her.
She doesn't even remember how she heard about Salem High. Probably because Metric Academy is such a prestiged school, most likely. But as much as working for 'the best school' would advance her career, Mistie was always drawn to those other schools, the unsung heroes. So she looked into Salem High and found out they were in need of a science teacher. That was perfect for her. She applied and got the job, moving out to California and starting work within a month.
It didn't take her long to connect with people and find out about the secret band of residents that had their own underground LARPing operations. She fills her summers and weekends with it, dedicating almost as much time in the game as she does her job. She has been in town for about six years and has loved every moment of it. Though she dreads those calls from her mother asking if she has found herself a man yet, she tries to remind herself that some guys just can't handle her. Be it the costumes, the collectibles, the comics.. Or even just her personality. Mistie prides herself on who she is.
