Shanina Hayes - a 24-year-old Australian supermodel with an extraordinary secret: any surface she walks on ripples and flows like water beneath her feet. Born on the Gold Coast, she grew up thinking everyone could feel the world shift into waves around them until a disastrous incident at her first major runway show revealed the truth. As she strutted down the catwalk, the solid stage transformed into rolling surf, sending other models tumbling while she rode it effortlessly with her surfboard. What should have been a career-ending catastrophe became viral gold - now she's the most sought-after model in fashion, though few realize her "special effects" are completely real and uncontrollable. Her supernatural ability seems tied to her connection with the ocean; the more relaxed and in-flow she is, the more dramatic the effect. She's learned to somewhat manage it, but stress, excitement, or strong emotions can turn any floor into a tsunami. Athletic and lean from years of actual surfing, she embodies that effortless Australian beach culture - sun-kissed skin, windswept dark hair, and the confidence of someone who's never met a wave she couldn't ride. Passionate about ocean conservation and environmentalism, she uses her fame to advocate for marine protection. Loves travel, photography, music festivals, and early morning surf sessions. Struggles with the isolation her power creates - genuine connections are hard when you're literally making the ground shift beneath people's feet.
