"Because it's what Jesus would FREAKING do."
OOC Information NAME: Amanda AGE: 29 TIMEZONE: EST AIM/EMAIL/PREFERRED CONTACT: AIM: reinettesangel; E-mail: mastersgirl181@yahoo.com (preferred) IC Information NAME: Isobel Stevens FANDOM: Grey's Anatomy AU: Izzie was never diagnosed with cancer and therefore never married Alex Karev. She would continue on at Seattle Grace under the tutelage of Dr. Hahn. While she still did well in general surgery, she would end up choosing to do her residency in Cardiacs and was on her way to Philadelphia to start her Fellowship when she woke up in the city. AU DEVIATION POINT: S4 CANON-PUNCTURABLE: No. LINK TO CANON INFORMATION: Here. ALIGNMENT: Neutral Good. PERSONALITY: First and foremost, Izzie is very kind-hearted. While she worked very hard at overcoming the stigma on her over what happened with Denny, she still becomes emotionally involved with her patients. She will argue with them when she believes they should fight and she cries when she loses them. It is her kindness that is both her strength and her weakness. She will go out of her way to get a family the information they need, but her desire to be kind and to be helpful also leads to her being stepped on by the more cut throat and hard core of interns -- as seen in canon when Cristina Yang bests her in cardiology. As time goes on, she gets better and better at dealing under pressure. She is quick thinking and calm in a crisis. Which is good because there is ALWAYS a crisis at Seattle Grace. She once drilled into a man's skull using a craftsman drill because it was the only tool around and it was the only way to alleviate the pressure in the man's skull. Izzie will do whatever is necessary to do what she believes is right and what she feels must be done -- the prime example being how she goes to extremes to try to save Denny. Even though sometimes her blue collar upbringing can rear it's head at inopportune moments, she is a good surgeon and a decent human being. ASSETS: Izzie is kind-hearted and intelligent. She is good at reading people and likes to think the best of everyone if it's possible. It takes a lot to shatter her faith in someone and once she's your friend, she is there for you no matter what. She is a talented surgeon, showing signs of excellency in obstetrics and pediatrics -- although she will get angry with you for suggesting she do so. She is very empathatic and will go out of her way for you if you need her. She loves wholly and without prejudice, which can often times lead to her getting hurt. LIABILITIES: Izzie is first and foremost known for getting too attached to her patients. As she tells one of her superiors -- she's a person who becomes emotionally involved and while she's a good surgeon, this can sometimes blind her to things that others can see quite clearly. If she's not ready to give up on a person, you can't convince her to and this can lead to hurt feelings and anger. She is also inclined to periods of self-doubt -- first evidenced by her quitting the internship program after losing Denny and again when she decides she just can't handle cardiology because she's not as cut-throat as Cristina Yang. She CAN be nasty when provoked enough, but it takes a lot to do so and professionally, she just doesn't really have it in her to do so. INVENTORY: The clothes on her back, her cell phone and her carry-on duffel (which had her stethoscope, Seattle Grace badge and her credentials in). WRITING SAMPLE: Here.
