Some revere her for her iron will and unflinching morality, whereas others deride and mock her for being a hopeless idealist along with being a Swig. However, all respect her to at least some degree due to her effectiveness rate and her powers; rumour has it she’s never lost a fight or failed a mission. Sense of humour: Dry, sarcastic and dark. --- Before the ‘rebirth’, as some like to call it, Victoria Hallward was a tiny, frail, weak girl barely reaching five feet tall and afflicted with a slew of medical ailments; however, her iron will remained, and she often got into fights that she would almost always lose, but her strong sense of morality and ethics would not allow her to let something she perceived as wrong go unchallenged, despite the harm that it would inevitably bring her. Despite her frail exterior, she always wanted to be able to fight for what she believed in, and in her mid-twenties, she was given the opportunity to develop powers for her own end. After agreeing to undergo the procedure, she was transformed into a metahuman with no strict powers, but a superhumanly strong body and capabilities surpassing the peak of human potential. Now possessed with the means to fight like she had wanted, she joined the military and quickly reached the rank of Captain before she was scouted by the intelligence community, joining them and becoming well-versed in covert and overt military operations, working with various intelligence agencies across the world, including more than a few tenures with the clandestine Task Force known as Blackwater. A hitherto flawless record has solidified her reputation and belief in her skills, and has also ensured that she is well-versed in almost everything the world has to offer her; she often dislikes working with Blackwater due to their often selfish interests, but she recognises that she sometimes has to deal with them to return to her usual intelligence work.

Name: Rosemarie ‘Romy’ Moon Moniker: Nexus Age: 26 Gender: Female Birthplace: Nevada Height: 5’11” Weight: 138lbs Hair: Blonde Eyes: Golden Scars/handicaps: Former paraplegia, previously confined to a wheelchair and still takes a toll on her psyche; light Lichtenberg figures on torso and right arm Distinguishing features: N/A Dress: In professional settings, often a suit; partial to leather jackets, jeans, & a t-shirt for casual wear; elegant, black leather gloves Preferred color: Green Darwin status: Freak Power Tier: III Power Type: Electricity Core ability: Neural Impulse Manipulation Powered Skills:
- Ability to sense and control the electrical nature of neural impulses; has the potential to become dangerous with her ability to either overload or deprive any part of the body connected to either the central or peripheral nervous system - Further training and study of the brain allows application to more focused area of the brain, allowing her to target emotions and memories, although this takes diligent concentration - The range and effectiveness of her abilities is affected by the conductivity of her environment, allowing for simple and effective amplifiers as well as the ability to conveniently dampen or even suppress her effectiveness if used appropriately - The electrochemical nature of her abilities combined with her sensitivity to electromagnetism responsible for her range and AoE; as a result, she has the potential to ‘feel’ those in said range, being able to assess their general location. Such an ability must be manually activated, and akin to a pair of scales, the prolonged use of electromagnetism to increase her range often has the effect of lowering the overall range of the ‘neglected’ electrochemical element of her abilities, and vice versa; extended focus on the range of her electrochemical neural manipulation of her abilities has the side effect of reducing her sensitivity to electromagnetic signals at range. - Before being gifted with a dampener, her power was unconscious, potent, and a very large potential AoE; without diligent emotional control, her powers would unconsciously force others in the AoE to mimic her neural sensations, feeling her emotions as he did and feeling physical contact in the same place she did at the same moment. Likewise, her unconscious desire of what she may think a person should be feeling or how she wanted them to feel; for example, if she wished pain upon somebody, or wished that a person would stop feeling pain after an injury, such a thing would immediately become reality. - Also has the potential to act as a boon; control over neural impulses has the potential to result in increased speed of thought & reasoning, as well as vastly improved physical capabilities & extremely high resistance to electrical damage and interference. - The potency and outwardly directed nature of her powers makes directing them inwards potentially lethal; she is not subject to any of the weaknesses her powers may bring, yet she is also not privy to any of the benefits or boons she may gift onto others barring a latent resistance to electricity. The same is applied to attempting to focus or channel her abilities into a single person for increased dexterity; skin-on-skin contact without the presence of her dampener has the potential for serious consequences, resulting in her choice to almost constantly wear gloves - The extremely unstable nature of her abilities resulted in Pride Initiatives providing her medication that reduce the latent electrochemical potency of her abilities, bringing them down to a much more manageable state. As a result, Pride Initiatives medically consults with her to ensure that the medication is regularly taken. Skills:
- Extensive knowledge of the law; earned renown for her prowess at her job - Deep knowledge of the nervous system to aid with her abilities - Passable engineering skills - Talented observational skills, lateral thinking, & resourcefulness - Gifted musician - Excellent emotional control from years of abuse and through necessity to control her abilities - Was physically gifted before her accident Training:- Training with criminal activity & street smarts from her mother and her associates - Emotional control & concentration Education:
- High school diploma - J.D. from prized law school Relationship status: Single Job: Criminal Defence Attorney Goal: To accumulate reward and recognition from her abilities; to ensure the safety and wellbeing of her family Hardship: Stunted emotions and lack of human connection in her life Greatest Fear: Losing control and dying a failure Strongest Trait: Intelligence and Determination Weakest Trait: Emotional Intelligence and Self-Destructiveness Self-image: A phoenix reborn from the ashes of her own failure Reputation: A brilliantly effective and powerful Darwin, but emotionally stunted to the point that most consider her to have a personality disorder Sense of humour: Painfully dry

Higher dosages will result in difficulty swallowing and speaking, extreme decrease in muscle coordination, tachycardia, vivid visual & auditory hallucinations and delirium, all resulting in death within a minute at maximum dose - Toxins leave no external signs of ingestion and are almost untraceable during an autopsy, often appearing as if the victim died of natural issues - Natural resistance to the toxins results in an immunity to all forms of poison as well as extreme longevity due to superhuman resistance to natural organic breakdown Skills:
- Extremely high intelligence, cunning, & long term strategic thinking - Exceptional beauty & dangerous, almost predatory charisma results in an almost magnetic charm - Unnatural perception & insight; skilled at determining what a person wants most - Extremely talented actress and liar; proficient in disguise and deception - Polylingual - Skilled businesswoman - High interest in culture, art, & botany; talented musician - Amateur sailor & water sports enthusiast Training:

Name: Hajime Yamagishi Moniker: Titan Age: 26 Gender: Non-binary (They/them) Birthplace: Osaka, Japan (Japanese father, American mother; moved to Florida at a young age) Height: 5’7” Weight: 124lbs Hair: Black & messy, often tied up at the top Eyes: Green Scars/handicaps: Multiple cuts & bruises at any one time; multiple burns of varying intensity, worst covering right arm Distinguishing features: Round glasses, third degree burn scar covering the right arm from the forearm to the lower tricep Dress: Androgynous Preferred colour: Green Darwin status: Freak Power Tier: I Power Type: Body Core ability: Body Alteration Powered Skills: - The ability to alter one’s physical size, and the corresponding mass and weight, at will - One’s physical properties and metabolism are adaptational, shifting to accommodate the new size relative to the unaltered, original size of Hajime, allowing them to perform with much larger bodies without being crushed under the weight of their own form, or surviving at much smaller sizes with reinforced lungs - Adaptational biology allows the individual to make extreme use of the incredible improvement in physical strength with the physical trade-off from the increased size reduced to the smallest margin possible - One’s intelligence is directly proportional to the size of the individual; the smaller the individual becomes, the higher said individual’s IQ, creativity, and intuition grows, allowing for genius on higher and higher levels the smaller the individual becomes. Conversely, the larger the individual grows, the more each of these qualities drop and the closer the individual becomes to an unintelligent, eventually mindless brute with entirely primitive thoughts - Maximum height still within the ‘safe zone’ has been recorded at five metres; any further growth past this point runs the risk of being unable to remember or comprehend how to return themselves from savagery - The speed at which the individual can grow or shrink is dependent on how far away the individual is from their original height; less than two feet either way is close to instantaneous, any further than that slows the time considerably, and vice versa with returning to normal Skills:
- Polylingual; fluent in Japanese, English, & German - Photographic memory (only when shrunk down a sufficient amount) - 99th percentile IQ even at base height - Talented violinist & painter Training:
- Lack of formal training due to repeated rejections from universities due to the immorality of their research - Extensive autodidactic training in biology, chemistry, mathematics, medicine, biotechnology, genomics & more - Significant knowledge of Darwin Syndrome due to coming under the tutelage of Dr. Kravic Education: - Early high school qualifications - Attended Ivy League University at 14 (expelled after 1½ years) Relationship status: Single Job: Senior consultant, scientist for classified DKT research and cutting-edge projects Goal: To unlock the realms of limited human/Darwin potential and step into the realm of the gods Hardship: Unable to rationally toe the line between creation and destruction; holds little sacred above the potential of their research except for the attention and approval of the mentor responsible for their ascension they hold so dear Greatest Fear: Evolution eluding their grasp forever Strongest Traits: Creativity & sheer tenacity Weakest Trait: Absence of humanity Self-image: A willing, head-over-heels slave to fate Reputation: Brilliantly capable and prodigiously creative, but almost unquestionably mad Sense of humour: Eccentric

Name: Dione Gray Moniker: N/A Age: 42 (appears 18) Gender: Female Birthplace: Laslothe Height: 5’9” Weight: 136lbs Hair: Black Eyes: Hazel Scars/handicaps: N/A Distinguishing features: Ornate ouroboros necklace Dress: Elegant & fashionable Preferred color: White Darwin status: Freak Power Tier: I Power Type: Body Core ability: Damage Transferal/Negation Powered Skills:
- The ability to transfer one’s energy/lifeforce/soul to another living being via skin to skin touch, rendering that being susceptible to any and all physical effects that befall the original body and rendering the original body untouched as a result - When active, if attacked, the true body will not be harmed at all and the afflicted body will instead receive the damage the original body should have received - The tolls present on the afflicted body do not take the form of the injuries the original body should have received; rather, the effects will manifest in the form of bodily decay and degeneration - Once active, the resilience of the afflicted body is such that an abundance of mortal wounds will not be enough to make them finally succumb to their degeneration; however, said afflicted body is still only capable of taking a finite amount of damage. The afflicted body will also not age any slower, leaving the possibility of succumbing to old age within a relatively natural timeframe - Once active, the true body changes into an unaltering, stasis-like state; whilst they become immune to the effects of pain, damage, or ageing, they are also unable to feel all other physical sensations such as touch or temperature, and including pleasurable sensations such as taste or carnal desires - Once the afflicted body has their affliction removed or succumbs to their degeneration, that body remains afflicted by the pain, punishment, and degeneration that has befallen them up to the current point in time; the true body is left unafflicted save their body’s return to ageing, damage, and feeling which will progress once again at a normal pace until another host is found, at which point their bodily susceptibility to harm or sensation will cease and the cycle will begin again Skills:
- Prodigious diplomat, politician, & strategist - Talented musician & actor; active patron of the arts - Polylingual Training:
- Musical training in hometown - Autodidactic political acumen acquired over decades Education:
- Standard public education up to adulthood Relationship status: Consort Job: Official consort/lover to the ruler of Laslothe, unofficial Supreme Minister Goal: To ensure the endless prosperity and continued development of her home country, forging a country the citizens can be proud of after their psychotic former Queen drove their reputation into the dirt Hardship: Growing resentment of the bloodline of the former Queen Greatest Fear: Growing old, decrepit, and helpless Strongest Traits: Forward-thinking & benevolent ingenuity Weakest Trait: Ruthless ambition Self-image: A chosen servant of humanity Reputation: The true power behind the throne and cabinet of Laslothe, wielding frightening authority through an immaculate flower Sense of humour: Witty

Name: Emerson Ruth Moniker: Break Age: 32 Gender: Male Birthplace: Princeton, New Jersey Height: 6’1” Weight: 182lbs Hair: Black Eyes: Grey Scars/handicaps: Faint scars intersecting his skin, giving the impression that his body appears stitched together Distinguishing features: Scars, piercing stare Dress: Preppy Preferred color: Green Darwin status: Freak Power Tier: III Power Type: Body Core ability: Scattering Powered Skills:
- The ability to separate and disperse the user’s entire body into small particles and wield the resulting swarm for both offensive and defensive purposes - Each particle takes the appearance of a jet black, miniature spherical musket ball; each particle has the ability to fly at a high speed and carry identical ballistic stopping power to a high calibre bullet. Each particle also holds enough strength to lift up a small human, or hold an average sized human for a limited amount of time. - Each particle can be individually manipulated but each carry a special ‘attunement’ to each other, granting the user the ability to band a myriad of particles together in a swarm without the need to control each individual particle to prevent it falling away from the swarm; this attunement is a large part of the user’s ability to keep their body from falling apart when in a corporeal form - Unable to use physical sight to guide the swarm, each particle is capable of a miniscule amount of echolocation; when amplified by the swarm and the presence of countless more particles, the echolocation allows for easy transportation of the swarm without the need for physical sight - The larger the swarm, the more the user’s control over the mass of particles diminishes; smaller swarms allow for less overall damage and range, but more precise and controlled uses of the swarm’s potential. Larger swarms allow for an increase of destructive capability but less fine control and less margin for error when attempting to control the swarm. The larger the swarm utilised, the longer the mental cooldown; larger swarms maintained for a set amount of time usually result in headaches proportionate to the swarm - Deconstructing the user’s entire body is maintainable if the particles are kept close together without deviating from each other; such a technique is most often utilised for swift transport without the need for vehicles. Spreading out to create the biggest possible swarm results in a plague; the destructive potential of such a state is untold, but the toll on the user’s mental state is unprecedented; the sheer mental fortitude needed to control the size and strength of such a swarm results in increasing loss of agency until the former user is now little more than a mindless swarm of destruction freed from impulse control Skills:
- Hand to hand combat; trained to use powers as a CQ extension of the body as well as its immediately obvious defensive/offensive capabilities - Cultivated athleticism & advanced coordination despite body working against him - Methodical nature - Powerful resolve Training:
- Hero Training Education:
- Law school (dropped out) Relationship status: Single Job: Social catalyst Goal: To force the destruction of the current zeitgeist of moral sloth Hardship: Accepting a burden of evil thrust upon him for the sake of humanity’s future Greatest Fear: Realising he has lost his way in favour of thriving upon destruction and fear Strongest Trait: Emotional resolve Weakest Trait: Reality-blinding idealism Self-image: Necessary evil Reputation: A mysterious figure courting destruction and exposing the flaws in complacent heroism Sense of humour: Grim

Name: Elsa Reiss Moniker: Corruption Age: 19 Gender: Female Birthplace: Leipzig, Germany Height: 6’0” Weight: 154lbs Hair: Brown, waist length Eyes: Yellow Scars/handicaps: Sociopathic traits, overuse of her powers slowly decaying parts of her skin Distinguishing features: Black mask covering mouth and nose w/ zipper where her mouth should be; bandages completely covering hands and forearms Dress: Dark green military style uniform; knee high black boots, white button up shirt underneath dark green button up shirt, dark green trousers, green military regulation cap, & decorative chains Preferred color: Red Darwin status: Freak Power Tier: II Power Type: Body Core ability: Corruption Powered Skills:
- The ability to chemically degrade and ‘corrupt’ whatever the user touches, resulting in the target wasting away into nothingness - Both organic and inorganic matter is susceptible to the corruption, but with different effects; inorganic matter will steadily corrode away until on the verge of total disintegration, whilst organic matter will steadily necrotise and rot away until total tissue death has left the target as little more than a putrefied husk - The corruption is not limited to the initial point of contact; once contact with a surface is made, the corruption will spread outwards in either a desired direction or indiscriminately, spreading across floors, walls, and ceilings, through doors, windows, vents, and the tiniest cracks. If the corruption makes contact with organic or inorganic matter as it spreads, the corruption will spread upwards from the first point of contact until one’s entire body is covered in the decay from head to toe - The corruption is limited to that to which it can physically spread; it cannot leap or jump, and so if the corruption has no way of physically touching you, you cannot become corrupted e.g. flying off the ground - Corruption is the most potent and can spread outwards at the fastest speed when closer in proximity to the original point of corruption; the further out the corruption spreads, the slower and less efficient the corruption becomes Skills:

Name: Riley Ellison Moniker: Mr. Perfect Age: 17 Gender: Male Birthplace: Denver, Colorado Height: 6’3” Weight: 162lbs Hair: Auburn Eyes: Blue Scars/handicaps: N/A Distinguishing features: Glasses, bangle bracelet on right hand w/ cherry blossom design Dress: Artsy Preferred color: White Darwin status: Freak Power Tier: I Power Type: Energy Core ability: Restoration Powered Skills:
- The ability to restore objects or organisms through touch to any point in their lifespan between the current moment and the object/organism’s last natural state - Restoration has the ability to repair damage, heal injuries, revert chemical changes and complex structures to their raw components; as Restoration takes place, a faint yellow glow can be seen around the object/organism - As humans/animals/plants are natural organisms, constantly subject to natural happenings and phenomena, Restoration cannot restore them to a younger age, only being capable of restoring their bodies to the last point that their bodies were unafflicted by an unnatural or foreign body. On the other hand, inorganic substances, having often been subjected to multiple unnatural processes to mould them into everyday objects, grant a lot more leeway, and Restoration is able to restore them to any point from the current moment in time all the way back to the purely natural state of their original existence - Restoration also cannot heal its user, cure natural illnesses or disorders, or restore life to a dead organism - When repairing a divided, incomplete, or broken object, the other pieces automatically ‘gather’ towards the starting point, often flying from their original position back to the starting point to repair itself. Restoration allows for the ability to control which part of the broken object acts as the starting point for the rest of the parts/pieces to gather towards. - If a broken object is restored around another object/organism, then it may also fuse objects as the first object re-forms naturally around the second Skills:
- Talented artist & athlete - High intelligence & creative application - Genuine, pleasant charisma - Burgeoning interest in photography - Interested in coffee; makes a phenomenal cup Training: - Customer service training from part-time job Education: - Currently enrolled in Darwin Academy in Sancta-Vy at Alantus Island after he and his mother were offered asylum from their abusive past Relationship status: Single Job: Coffee shop barista (part-time) Goal: Make sure the effort his mother went through to get him here is worth it Hardship: Lack of self-identification Greatest Fear: Falling into mediocrity or even crime in his future Strongest Trait: Agreeableness Weakest Trait: Overly lenient nature Self-image: A normal teenager that doesn’t like bad or false impressions Reputation: One of the notably popular kids in school with a tendency to wear his heart on his sleeve more than he should Sense of humour: Witty

Name: Isidore Moniker: None Age: 23 Gender: Male Birthplace: Unknown Height: 6’2” Weight: 146lbs Hair: Black Eyes: Green Scars/handicaps: Schizophrenia; mild persecutory delusions & auditory hallucinations of the faceless voices that were destroyed through the products of Kravic’s experiments, notable anxiety Distinguishing features: Chest length hair, glasses, blank & emotionless expression with a soft, unassuming voice Dress: Suits, easier to maintain routine Preferred color: White Darwin status: Freak Power Tier: III Power Type: Energy Core ability: Potential Unleashed Powered Skills:
- The user constantly emits an almost invisible field of energy, expanding outwards in the shape of a progressively larger dome; when the user activates their power, or the dome reaches maximum range, every living being within the field has their physical output including strength, speed, and durability taken away, added to the user all at once, and stockpiled into one gigantic reserve of energy resulting in potentially extraordinary power - This gigantic reserve of energy has a very finite usage before the stolen power returns to the individual from whom the energy was stolen, often allowing for around one hour of maximum output before the reserve is depleted and the user returns to normal, unpowered output - 100% of an individual’s physical output could be stolen away for increased power, but the individual will die if too much of their energy is taken, which in turn will always prove fatal for the user; if one dies, their energy cannot be returned to them, leading the user’s body to break down and result in death from stockpiling more power than their body could ever possibly handle. As a result, around 20-25% of any one individual’s energy is usually enough to render them unconscious and unresponsive, but alive enough to ensure their energy can be returned and both they and the user can live another day - At their maximum power, the user’s hair stands up slightly and their body takes on a lean yet incredibly muscular appearance, and their body begins to glow with a green, electric aura - The maximum range of the energy field is 8.1 kilometres, but the range of the field is constantly unknown to even the user; a major failure of control with their powers results in massive fluctuations ranging from several feet to multiple kilometres, never consistent or reliable - Their lack of connection with the control of their powers also results in lack of attunement regarding the field's particular range at any given moment; they have no way of knowing whether the amount of power available for them to draw on is so little that their abilities are rendered effectively meaningless, or so phenomenally large that their power becomes unrivalled by anybody else on the planet - Experiencing such power is extremely physically taxing. If their power is depleted and returns to the individuals that were in the energy field, they will have little to no energy for up to 24 hours; their time is often spent sleeping for a full day before waking up again at normal output Skills:
- High intelligence; talented at mathematics & deduction - Drawing & reading - Talented violinist - Relative strength over peace of mind due to skill in meditation Training:
- Unknown Education:
- Unknown, but seemingly substantial Relationship status: Single Job: None Goal: To be useful…somehow Hardship: Identity crisis Greatest Fear: Being stuck at the hands of others forever Strongest Trait: Imagination Weakest Trait: Fear of his delusions/hallucinations Self-image: Little to none due to identity crisis, made it a mission to try and build it up Reputation: Little to none, tries to be as anonymous as possible; generally seen as shy and neither immediately intimidating nor completely socially cognizant Sense of humour: Inept but tries his best

Name: Seth Moniker: Morow Age: 28 Gender: Male Birthplace: Victoria, Australia Height: 6’2” Weight: 171lbs Hair: Black Eyes: Green Scars/handicaps: N/A Distinguishing features: Upper arm irezumi tattoo of a basilisk serpent Dress: Mostly semi-formal Preferred color: Green Darwin status: Freak Power Tier: I Power Type: Body Core ability: Manipulation Powered Skills:
- The user has the ability to manipulate another’s actions wholly to their will against the wishes of their mind; if an individual ingests something containing the user’s DNA or the user’s DNA itself, the individual falls under the user’s control. This extends to the user’s DNA entering an individual’s body through other means e.g. breaking the skin - The general time limit for an individual remaining under the user’s control is approximately five minutes for a single individual; if the user wishes to manipulate more than one person at a time, this time limit will be diminished by each individual added to their control - Once under the user’s control, an individual’s body and mind will remain in harmony like usual until the user speaks their first command. After this command has been completed, if no other commands are issued or if the user is out of range, the individual will remain stationary until time runs out - If the user repeats the manipulation process on the same individual before time runs out then the time limit will, rather than extending five minutes, return to the original maximum of five minutes - If the same individual undergoes the manipulation process repeatedly in a short span of time, their body will begin to grow dependent on obeying commands via the telepathic link rather than via the nervous system, leading to potentially catastrophic fallout for the individual and thus becoming unable to be effectively commanded Skills:
- Polylingual - Organised criminal activity & leadership - Firearms & close combat training - Well-versed in the mind, as well as torture; both physical and psychological Training:
- Unknown Education:
- Unknown Relationship status: Single Job: Lieutenant for the Syndicate, ‘left hand’ of the Basilisk Goal: To serve the Basilisk to the greatest of his ability, and to solve what separates Good and Evil Hardship: Personal ideology conflicting with his station Greatest Fear: Dying ignorant Strongest Trait: Daring Weakest Trait: Curiosity Self-image: One who is Evil, seeking balance Reputation: Mostly cultivated an air of mystery, largely seen within the Syndicate as an Angel of Death that heralds suffering in his wake Sense of humour: Witty

Name: Jolyne Thorne (Previously known as Elphelt, shortened to Ellie) Moniker: Shrike Age: 28 Gender: Female Birthplace: Unknown, somewhere within the continent of NA Height: 5’9” Weight: 145lbs Hair: Black Eyes: Blue Scars/handicaps: Several scars, most notably burn scars on palms of hands Distinguishing features: Leather gloves, occasionally seen smoking a cigarette Dress: Elegant Preferred color: Red Darwin status: Freak Power Tier: I Power Type: Body Core ability: String Decomposition Powered Skills:
- The ability to unravel the user’s entire body into sharp, highly durable string, typically beginning with the hands, and the ability to freely manipulate it - Up to 80% of the user’s body may be unravelled harmlessly, as well as the ability to quickly rewind the string back into its original position upon the user’s body, allowing for supernatural flexibility and providing benefits such as being nigh untouchable in physical combat or in matters of stealth i.e. the ability to hide within cramped spaces in which no normal human could reside - The base strength of the string is considerable and, much like a muscle, possesses room for vast improvement given patience and dedication to the point of easily supporting the user’s weight utilising the string to swing from place to place, and is prone to decreasing with prolonged inactivity - The sharpness of the string is not severe enough for the string to cause major damage on its own, but has the potential to become deadly enough to slice through flesh and bone when the user manages to throw a large amount of force and momentum behind the attack - In addition to separating into many different strings and moving at high speed, the user also possesses the ability to draw the string into a much more compact shape, such as forming a fist much stronger than a human fist, as well as forming blunt objects such as hammers, maces, morningstars etc. The same principle is also used if the user chooses to compact the many strings making up the body part of their choosing i.e. an arm, into one larger, far more solid length of rope - At the height of the user’s power, the string could be used for extremely delicate tasks requiring outstanding dexterity and care, such as manoeuvring through very thin passageways with motion sensors, disarming bombs, using the strings to weave tight nets strong enough to stop bullets and cage Darwins with strength exceeding human limits, and even theoretically perform surgery from the other room over provided the user had clear visual access Skills:
- Extensive martial arts & weapons training; due to the user’s particular powerset, the user specialised in mastery of the rope dart and how to effectively wield their string in an identical manner - Multilingual - Above average intelligence, foresight, and organisational strategy skills - Personalised training in leadership & being led by superiors (After time-skip) - Extensive knowledge on various different subjects, some self-taught and others stemming from Pride Industries’ offer of education to aid integration into civilian life - Charisma and people skills (entirely self-taught and mostly lacking despite legitimate effort; no longer actively unbothered about the opinions and feelings of others but will never really be a people person. Does like children, though) - Various civilian skills; cooking, cleaning, shopping, DIY, dealing with dull people without hurting their feelings Training:
- Extensive martial arts & weaponry training (See above) - Extensive leadership & obedience training (see above) - Extensive infiltration and espionage training Education:
- GED (After time-skip) - Teaching degree (After time-skip) - Degree-Masters Degree level knowledge on various subjects (all unofficial) Relationship status: In a relationship (for now) Job: High school teacher in a nice part of (Redacted: a big, undisclosed city) Goal: To be happy Hardship: A past that, despite her efforts, will never stop chasing her Greatest Fear: Fate beating it into her that her past can’t be escaped, and her efforts to leave it behind are futile Strongest Trait: Perspective Weakest Trait: Self-interest Self-image: Somebody the world decided to fuck over before she was even old enough to realise she’d been doomed, a person that was never meant for the power and significance thrusted upon her Reputation:
- (Prior to time-skip) A lethal warrior of incredible power and versatility, equally capable of tearing down an enemy stronghold through the front door as she is dismantling the entire stronghold in a single night through peerless use of stealth. Such power comes in tandem with a short, but mercifully forgiving temper to those she is not specifically directed to kill/torture/capture. - (Post time-skip) Somebody that will never be described as approachable or the life of the party, but somebody with a quiet, warm conviction to uphold their values and ensure nobody dares to feel weak or helpless in her presence or within her efforts Sense of humour: Wry
