  1. Who are you? Sum yourself up in one sentence. Claremont Academy misfit Do you have any nicknames, street names, titles, or nom de plume? Superhero name is "Rot" on account of my ability to decay matter. What is your full birth name? Consuelo Nunez Where do you live? I've lived with my mom in one crummy place after another. Maybe they'll let me just stay at Claremont, now that I'm in? How old are you? What year were you born (if applicable)? I'm 16. I was born on February 29, which is just one more excuse to forget my birthday. Physical Traits Ordinary 16 year old Hispanic girl. Living things are instinctively repulsed by my powers, so that's great. I've got long green dreadlocks and wear all black because, well, everyone thinks I'm a creep already anyway, you know? What is your gender? If not applicable, please explain. Female How would you describe your heritage? Both sets of grandparents were from Mexico, my mom says. But I've never met any of them. How tall are you? 5' 4" What is your body type? meso/ecto Do you have any particular weaknesses, such as allergies or physical disabilities? I mean, I can't stop everything I touch from gradually withering away, and there's the whole repellant to everything that lives bit, but otherwise, no, not really. How do you carry yourself? Are you graceful, or heavy on your feet? Can you be stealthy, do you walk with confidence? I keep at a distance - for your safety, not mine. I've had to get really good at talking nicely, since my powers tend to make everyone hate me. I'm quite confident. I guess, maybe I could be stealthy, but why? As far as I can tell, I'm completely invincible. Describe your skin, eye, and hair color. Skin color is "olive", eyes are brown, hair would be black, but it turns out if you bleach your dreadlocks and apply green dye, that is the color they become. How do you wear your hair, if applicable? Do you have facial hair? Long dreadlocks. No facial hair at present. I'll tell you how that's going once I hit 50. Do you consider yourself attractive? Do others? I know I'm a knockout. Guys would be falling all over me if they just saw my picture, or saw me across the room. People can smell the death on me though. It's instinctive. Once anyone gets too close, I become a monster to them. Do you have any scars, tattoos, piercings, or birthmarks? No, and I'm not sure my invulnerability would even let me get a tattoo (or a scar, I guess) if I tried. Do you resemble anyone famous? Not yet . . . Do you have a dominant hand? I'm left handed because, why not be freaky in one more way, you know? What kind of clothing do you wear? Ha! I wish. When my powers first started up, my clothes would wear out in a couple of weeks. My mom was so mad about that! Now that I'm older, the only clothes that last out the day are my super suit. And that only lasts if it can divert the destruction to another sacrificial piece of clothing. But, you know, mostly I wear black. Black sheep. Bad seed. Why fight it? Do you wear makeup? Sometimes. I kind of like heavy eye liner. But makeup decays to nothing in an hour or so, once it touches my skin. What is your vocal range? Is your voice distinctive in some way? Um, I guess I'm like, a soprano? Do you have any distinctive habits, nervous tics, or mannerisms? Where did they come from, and what causes them? Do other people notice and remark on these habits? Do they annoy you or other people? I keep physical distance from people. I try to keep everyone calm, if I can, because people are always freaking out on me, of course. Once my superpowers really ramped up and I could fly, I kind of tend to hover a foot or two off the ground, just to get a little more distance. History I mean it's a big sad story. Cry, cry. My folks were poor. My dad hit my mom. My mom got into pills. My dad left my mom. My powers started destroying everything and freaking everybody out. My mom can't stand me. I can't stand her. I got this big break to get into Claremont Academy. Now I'm this dark mysterious kid super hero burdened with the danger of my own powers and always deeply misunderstood. Blah, blah, blah. Where do you come from? Born and raised in the Lincoln neighborhood of Freedom City, baby. Have you made any major moves, or do you live in your hometown? I mean, my mom is always getting kicked out of whatever place she is staying in by whatever lowlife loser she is dating. And . . . well maybe it's related to my powers too. I can be pretty hard on a small apartment. . . . Do you feel loyal to your country of citizenship? Do you consider yourself patriotic? How do you feel about the government of your country? I mean I guess, sort of? I mean, it's not like my family has been treated super well, but a lot of places are a lot worse, I guess. How do you feel about the place you come from? I take pride in my neighborhood, but it's kind of rough how many people there don't like me anymore. Where is your home town? What was/is it like? Lincoln neighborhood of Freedom City. We don't have a lot of fancy things there, but we're like, real people, you know? Growing up, were most of the people you knew similar to you, or were you somehow a minority? How did that affect you? Well, most people I grew up with were poor too. I was a pretty normal kid, until my powers started coming out, around nine years old. Is there something you've always been really good at or really bad at? How has that affected your life? I've had to get really good at trying to keep the peace. I try to be good at controlling my powers, but stuff always seems to go sideways. Were there any traumatic experiences in your early years (death of a family member, abandonment, orphaned at an early age)? Yeah, sure. My dad hit my mom a lot. Then he left. My mom pops pills now. It's sad. But she's had to put up with a lot too. Briefly describe a defining moment in your childhood and how it influenced your life. When my dad left, I blamed my mom. Then I blamed myself. I wanted to control things, make them safe. But I couldn't. Wow. Here, I am still trying to do the same, but it's even harder now, with these powers. But, you know, there is a lot I can do that other people can't. Sure, it is a pain, but these powers are a gift you know? And what kind of a person am I, if I don't put them to good use? What stupid things did you do when you were younger? I mean, I'm sixteen, right? I'm supposed to do stupid things now. Except, I kind of can't, because, if I do something stupid, it could be really, really bad. When I was a little girl, I know I blamed myself for a lot of things my parents did. Cause, it's like you can't control your parents, so if feels safer to blame yourself, you know? Now I think I see the world a little more clearly, though. Where did you go to school? How much school did you have, and did you enjoy it? I went to school at, well, a lot of different places, with all the moving around. And also, there were some years I played hooky a lot. I mean, how is a ten year old kid supposed to deal with it when their chair rots away as they are sitting on it? But at Claremont I fit in. Well, kind of. I mean, I'm still an outcast, but it's a lot less extreme. Do you have any mementos of your childhood? What are they, and why did you keep them? If you have none, why not? Ouch. Mementos sure would be nice. But I can't. They all just fall to pieces. When did you decide to become a hero? Why? Did anyone influence you one way or another in the decision? Honestly, I was pretty set on it by the time I was twelve. I mean, with my power set, being a bitter super villain would be a natural, right? But I'm not going to take the easy way out. That was my dad's way. Not mine. Is the reason you give people for becoming a hero different than your real reason? If so, why? I have to concentrate - all the time - just to not accidentally destroy stuff, okay? I've just got to believe my powers can be put to good use. There are some real jerks out there, with a really inflated sense of entitlement. I can stop them. Believe it. Do you have any deep, dark secrets in the past that may come back to haunt you? Wow, I hope not! I mean, I don't think I've killed anybody, which is kind of a miracle, when you think about my powers. But who knows, maybe I did when I was a kid and my mom hid it from me. Sheesh. Where do you get off asking these terrible questions? Do you represent yourself as being different from who you really are? Why? Um, that's like a really convoluted question for me. People can sense the danger of my power, and they think I'm a monster for it. But I'm not really a monster. But like, maybe I am monster, objectively speaking. So like, it's kind of complicated. If you do have these secrets, what do you fear would happen if the truth became known? How far would you go to protect those secrets? Wow, someone is seriously nosy! I mean, I guess, if I learned that I had killed someone or that like I'm an avatar for the destruction of the world, or like some other big drag, it would be really bad. Do you have any sort of criminal record? If so, is it public knowledge? I mean, I guess I could have gotten hit with destruction of public property or something, a lot of times. But, like that never materialized. But I don't steal. I don't do drugs. Family My pill popping mom and I are at each other's throats a lot. Haven't seen my dad since I was six. Don't want to. What are your biological parents' names? Mother is Maria and dad was Hector. Were you raised by them? If not, please explain and describe who raised you. Dad left when I was six. That's three years before my powers started. Ouch. Mom raised me. What was their standing in the community? What did/do they do for a living? Dad was in construction, I think? Mom has been a waitress or a maid. Where are your parents now? Mom is in a crummy apartment in Lincoln neighborhood. Dad? Who knows? Did your family stay in one area or move around a lot? Moved around way too much, but always in or near Freedom City. How did you get along with their parents? How do you get along with them now (if applicable). I'm mean, when I was little, my parents were like petty gods to me. Now my dad is less than dirt to me. Mom and I love each other, but there's a lot of anger. How do your parents view you now, or how would they? I think my mom is relieved I'm in Claremont now. Maybe my life will make more sense now. Does my dad keep tabs on me? I doubt it. Do you have any siblings? If so how many and what are their names? Describe your relationship with them. No brothers or sisters. What was your birth order in the family? Me. Where are your siblings now (if applicable)? Do they have families of their own? What do they do? Nope. Do you stay in touch with them or have you become estranged? N/A Do you love or hate one member of the family in particular? I hate my dad most of all, but my mom drives me crazy. Is any member of the family special to you in any way (perhaps, as a confidant, mentor, or arch-rival)? My mom always stuck around. That can't have been easy, with a kid that is basically cursed. Are there any black (or white) sheep in the family (including you)? If so, please explain. Well, let's just say there aren't any white sheep . . . Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? If so, please explain, including how it has affected your life. Who knows? Do you have a partner and children currently? If so, please describe them. Ew. I'm sixteen, okay. Slow down! I mean there are some cute boys in Claremont, but like, how is that going to work, when any living thing that gets near me is repulsed? . . . . Hmm. Maybe I could, like, date a vampire or something. . . If you do not have a partner or children, do you want them someday? How firm are you in your opinion on this, and what might change your mind? I mean, it would be a dream to have a child, someday. Years from now. Treat them the way they should be treated. But would my powers even allow it? Seems impossible. What type of person would be your ideal mate? Invulnerable to my powers. Not a jerk. I mean, I would like to be attracted to them. But if I could get 1 and 2, that would be more than I would ever expect. Relationships Tumultuous relationship with my mother. Just starting to get to know people at school. Already I think there's a popular girl that hates me. Like, hates me more than everyone else even. Do you have any close friends? If so, please describe them, and how you came to be close to them. Friendships don't really last for me. People sense the danger in me, and can't stay close. Do you have a best friend? If so, how did they become your best friend? How close are you to your best friend? I mean, I have an imaginary best friend, called Nancy, after a teddy bear I used to have. It's kind of sad, but it like helps me get through, you know? If you were to go missing, who would worry about you? I mean, if I were to go missing, people might worry from like a weapon of mass destruction tracking standpoint. I like to think my mom would come looking for me, and not just double up on her pill and hide. I like to think the official at Claremont would care and try to find me. Have you lost any loves? If so, how did it happen, and what did you do? My dad left. Does that count? I don't know. I miss my best friend Sara, from when I was little. But she literally thinks I'm of-the-devil now. So no going back there. Do you have any bitter enemies? If so, please describe them and their history with you. After my dad left, there was a long string of jerks - well, I guess, other jerks - that my mom hooked up with. There is a little part of me that wants to go back and get revenge on them. But really, they're like beneath me now. It wouldn't even be like squashing a bug. It would be like, you know those little tiny white flies you can accidentally inhale? It would be like that with them. If you have enemies, how do you think they might attempt to work against you in the future? Well, I'm like sixteen still. I'm sure I've still got plenty of time left to make a lot of enemies in my superhero career. Probably, they would like, try to mind-control me and turn me into their tool of destruction or something. What is the worst thing someone has done to you? Left me Where do your loyalties lie? In what order? My mom is still first. But supporting her hurts so much, because she is so self-destructive. So, like, will I be able to keep up that support forever? Next is my neighborhood. Then my school. But, I'm still like really young, so things could still change a lot, right? Who or what do you trust the most? Why? Myself is both the person I trust most and least. I've had to rely on myself as my parents failed me and as people turned against me, from the bad parts of my powers. But also, like one little slip up, and I do so much damage. So I also trust myself least. Who or what do you despise? Why? I despise people that take out their anger on the weak. Man, I've seen like, way too much of that. What qualities do you admire most in other people? Are these qualities you possess? I admire, like when people can stay cool and think things out. I think I'm pretty good at that, mostly . . . What qualities do you hate most in other people? Do you have any of those qualities? Man, I hate it when people give up. I can kind of get it though, cause sometimes, it seems hopeless. Do you have a secret identity? If so, who knows it? Do you hide it from people who are close to you? Why? I mean, I put on a mask and a super suit when I'm "Rot" and not just Consuelo. But also, I've got, like, big green dreadlocks and people in the neighborhood know about this cursed little kid that destroyed a bunch of houses and is now going to superhero high school. So it's kind of a really crappy secret identity, to be honest. Do you work well on teams and in groups? Are you a leader or a follower? I like the idea of working on teams and groups. People have to understand that they can't stand too close, or they'll get spooked, though. I kind of feel sad for people that ask the question: "are you a leader or a follower", because, like that question supposes hierarchy is the only type of human relationship, you know? Hierarchy is kind of messed up - people are just people, right? But, like in this world, we can be expected to play roles of leader and follower. And I think, like a good leader is someone that helps people out with their special abilities, not like someone that bosses others around for their own ego. And I think that, someone that people might think is a follower is actually just trying to keep a low profile because they are trying to avoid drama they are tired of. So it's like, not quite so simple. Are you on a super team? If so, how do you get along with your comrades? Do you trust them, or do you have secrets from them? I'd like to be on a super team. But I know it's not going to be easy for my teammates, because my powers make everything complicated. Are you a member of any church, fraternal organization, club, committee, political party, or other group? How much time do you spend on that? I used to go to Catholic church sometimes, when I was a kid. But it got to be too much of a problem, with my powers. Now I'm not totally sure what I believe. Kind of figuring myself out a bit. Personality & Beliefs I try to be strong. I try to be smart. I try to let go of what I can't control. My powers are dangerous and difficult, but I could also be a great superhero. Who are your heroes? **I'm going to punt on this one, until I know more about the campaign setting, as a player.** Did you ever become disillusioned with former heroes or idols? If so, why and what were the circumstances? Sure. I've spent a lot of time mad at my parents. I still am. But I also have to move on. Do you like being a hero? If so, what is the most rewarding part? If not, what makes you keep doing it? I love it! My powers being something more than a reason to hate me? Sign me up! Of course, my same old problems follow me everywhere. Is there anything that would make you give up hero work, or even switch sides? I mean, you like to think "no". But, probably, every super villain thought "no" at one point too. What are your short term goals (what would you like to be doing within a year)? Make some friends at Claremont. Be part of a super team. Maybe even control the bad parts of my powers better (yeah, right, wouldn't that be nice}? What are your long term goals (what would you like to be doing twenty years from now)? Same but more. More control. More friends. Better superhero. What is your greatest fear? Why? What do you do when something triggers this fear? That I'll kill someone close to me. Is there anything you would give you life for? Yeah, for sure. But like, I can't seem to get hurt now, so maybe this is an irrelevant question? How do you feel about money and material wealth? Do you desire it or disdain it? Are you miserly with what you have, or do you like to share? Is it mark of success, or a means to an end? I mean, everyone that grew up poor wants to be rich! But how would that even work for me? Everything I touch turns to dust, eventually. How do you generally treat others? I like, literally have to keep people at a distance. That's not a metaphor. Are you a trusting person? Has your trust ever been abused? Man, like every day. You have no idea. Are you introverted (shy and withdrawn) or extroverted (outgoing)? Do you have a lot of self-confidence? Confidence, yes. I extrovert as a defense mechanism, to keep the peace. But it's exhausting. So sometimes I introvert, just to try to avoid drama. How do you act around attractive, available members of your preferred sex? It's awful. If they get close, they'll hate me. Some time, I think I'll explode! What are your most annoying habits? Probably everyone thinks I'm a freak for how stand-offish I can be. But it's for everybody's protection. Do you feel contempt for any general category of people? Who are they, and why? Men that hit women. People that leave there kids. People that take there pain out on weaker people. What is your favorite food? Do you prefer any particular type of food? Do you take the time to enjoy your food, or do you eat as fast as you can? Dude. I frigging love gummy worms. I eat them with cereal. I eat them with chips. If people didn't think I was a freak for my powers, this is why they would shun me. What is your favorite drink (alcoholic or otherwise)? I could drink Yoohoo three times a day, easy. What is your favorite treat (dessert)? Oh wait, do I have to count gummy worms for this? They are more like, a staple for me. So I'm going to say chocolate for this one. Are there any specific foodstuffs that you find disgusting or refuse to eat? Pork belly is the worst thing ever. What is your favorite color? Are there any colors you dislike? Now it's black. Used to be green, though. What sort of music do you like? Is there any that you hate? I like dance music a lot. If you have a favorite scent, what is it? Lavender! Do you have a favorite animal? Squirrels! I love squirrels. They always stand up for themselves. And they are always saving things for later. What is your most treasured possession? Why? Sadly, the only thing I've been able to keep for any time is the special super suit I got from Claremont. Everything else just wears away. Do you enjoy "roughing it", or do you prefer your creature comforts? I like luxury. But again, that's more of a theory, because I've never really had it. Also, fancy stuff would disintegrate just as fast as cheap stuff, so . . . Is there a job or a task you would absolutely refuse to do? I'd like to think I would never be like an oppressor or a killer. Do you consider yourself a spiritual person? If so, how do your beliefs affect your life? How important is it to you? Yes, definitely, but in a, like, very non-specific way. Was your faith influenced or molded by anyone special? When I was really young, my mom would read me religious stories. Wanted me to be a good person. That seems like forever ago. If you belong to a religious organization, how often do you attend? Do you have a specific place of worship, or friends within the organization? How much do you agree with the beliefs of your organization? Use to go to church sometimes. But it's not practical now, with my powers. Could you kill? Have you killed? I mean, physically, it would be very easy for me to kill. But I want to never do it, and hope I never have. What circumstances led to you forming that conviction, or taking that action? There's already so much suffering the world. And my powers are so destructive. If I were okay with killing, just imagine the monster I could become! Are there circumstances under which you believe it is permissible to kill? What are they? Wow, you're like, really obsessed with this question, you know? They would have to be extreme. Like, there was no other option available to prevent something even worse. How would you react to watching someone kill another person? Would your reaction be different if the killer was a friend or an enemy of yours? It would be really sad. How would I react? I don't know. Am I calm? Is it a heated moment? How would you react if something important was stolen from you? I feel like I don't have a lot, so it would be really tough. I could get angry or sad. Hopefully, I'd come out of it with a positive outlook. But that could take a while to get there. How would you react to public humiliation? This happens to me like every day. It stinks. But, I try not to take it personally. Most people really can't help but react really badly when they get close enough to feel my powers. I try not to blame them. But it's not easy. How would you react if a good friend or relative were purposely or accidentally killed? Has it happened to you? I would be so mad, I think. I would probably feel hopeless. What power do we have against mortality? What do you consider to be the worst crime someone could commit and why? I mean, there is no such thing as a "worst crime". Every crime you can imagine, you can imagine one a little bit worse, right? Maybe nuclear war? If your life were to end in 24 hours, what five things would you do in those remaining hours? Tell my mom I love her Push myself to the absolute limit Maybe volunteer for a suicide mission? Disintegrate that disturbing statue of the giant bunny on Jefferson and Cook (morally, this would not be a crime) Eat lots of gummy worms Career & Training I'm a sixteen year old high school student, yo. Do you have any special training in your hero skills? If so, where and how did you get it? Since I decided to be a superhero when I was twelve, I would sneak into junkyards and practice my moves on old beater cars. If I ever face a super villain based off a Ford Impala, they're toast. Who taught you the most about your heroing abilities? What was your relationship with that person? I mean, I haven't really had a mentor. Maybe that will happen now that I'm at Claremont. Do you have any particularly unusual skills? How did you acquire them? I mean, I can destroy matter with a thought. Or . . . without a thought. Because I'm a mutant freak. Do you do something besides hero work for a living? Have you ever done anything else, or do you plan to? I'm a high school student. My powers make normal life so very difficult. Superhero seems like the only good fit. What is your preferred combat style? Honestly, I like to get in close, and really give it to them. I get so drained always having to keep distance from people. But, if they're like, really quick, I can dissociate their molecules at a distance, too. Since my body appears to have adapted to my powers by becoming immune to physical harm, I don't really bother dodging, like hardly ever. Gym teacher says that's lazy. But if I don't dodge, then I'm already positioned for a counter-strike, right? Maybe when I start feeling the hits, I'll start dodging? Have you ever received any awards or honours? Umm, not yet? What skill areas would you like most to improve in? Is there anything you can't do that you wish desperately you could? If I could control my powers to not destroy everything I touch, I would be so pumped! Also, if there were some way to stop people from reacting so negatively once they get close enough to sense my powers, that would be even more amazing. But I'm not holding my breath on either of those. How do you act around people who are more skilled than you in areas you'd like to improve? Are you jealous, or do you try and learn? Like if someone could teach me how to reign in the negative aspects of my powers, I think I would join their cult. If they didn't have a cult yet, I would start their cult for them. Lifestyle & Hobbies I'm and avid hobbyist in the pass time of avoiding accidentally destroying things and people with my powers. It's kind of sad, but I have a rich imaginary life. I'm a daydreamer. What is a normal day for you? How do you feel when something interrupts this routine? Wake up in a crater where whatever I was sleeping on used to be. Find some loose clothing I can put over my super suit that the suit can use as a sacrifice to my powers so that I can end up not naked later in the day. Hydrate. Try to get my mom to wake up and actually go to work. Eat breakfast maybe. Go to school. Feel like less of a freak than normal while there. Pursue dream of becoming a superhero while not accidentally destroying or enraging other teenagers trying to do same. Eat lunch. Probably involving tater tots and gummy worms. Try to make friends. Try to get involved in extracurriculars. Apologize for whatever I destroy that day. Get teased and shunned. Go home. Bring mom home if she ends up somewhere messed up during the day. Try to find something for dinner. Study. Go to sleep, Ideally on a steel sheet on a the ground floor. Out on a gravel lot on warm days works too. Set alarm to wake up a couple times during the night to try to mitigate the unintended destruction during my sleep. So, the routine is a bit of a grind. A disruption could be good or bad, depending. Do you have any hobbies, or interests outside hero work? What are they, and where did you pick them up? I like all the normal things. I love interacting on my phone. Works way better than real life. I'm super careful to always use those gloves that you can swipe with, so the glove disintegrate, instead of the phone. But accidents happen. A lot. So I spend a lot of time without a phone too. What do you do for fun? If I can find a context where I can let loose with my powers, I really like that. Do you have a costume? What does it look like? My super suit is pretty basic and black body suit, little black mask. But, it's super awesome, because it's this super high tech smart nanomaterial that can redirect my destructive power to another object that it's touching. So, I can put on like a loose sweater or something over it, and the seater will wear away over the course of the day. But the suit will actually not get destroyed, which is like, a really, really big deal for me. I love this dang thing! How do you normally dress when not in costume? Well, like whatever I can find, knowing it won't last but a few hours before it's gone. What do you wear to bed most nights? This seems kind of like an inappropriate question. . . . But, it would be, like, not hygienic for me to wear my super suit literally all of the time. So I usually sleep without any clothing, because, it would just burn off before I wake up anyway. Do you wear any special jewelry? What is it, and what does it look like? Nope. Unless I want it to disintegrate. Do you have a special place where you keep your valuables? Not much in the way of valuables. Everything I touch crumbles to dust, remember? What's your preferred means of local travel? How about long distance? Honestly, since I started being able to fly, it's just way, way better. I would like catch the bus, but like sit on a newspaper, or keep on getting up and moving around to not wear through any of the seats. It's super embarrassing! Miscellaneous When I was around ten, I got in trouble for being naked a lot, because I hadn't figured out the tricks to make sure all my clothes didn't disintegrate away before I could get to new ones. It was super awkward. Mom yelled at me, like, all the time. Have you ever made a will, or tried to make arrangements for your death? What provisions did you make? I have literally nothing to give away. If your features were to be destroyed beyond recognition, is there any other way of identifying your body? Um, I guess? What would you like to be remembered for after your death? Someone that really cared and helped people out. An advocate for the truth that nobody is disposable. Do you believe you pose a threat to the public? Why or why not? Um, 1,000% yes! Like every moment I'm worried about destroying something. What if some evil wizard or something mind-controlled me and set me loose? Bad news, right? But still, I'm a person and deserve to be free, right? I'm a good person and shouldn't be locked away, just because people are scared of me. What do you perceive as your greatest strength? I mean, seeing how crazy destructive and alienating my powers are, I think my greatest strength is that I am committed to being a good person anyway. What do you perceive as your greatest weakness? Wow. I feel a lot of strain on my mind a lot of the time. I'm worried that I might break and really do something super duper bad, like in the wrong context. As a player, if you could, what advice would you give your character? Speak as if he/she were sitting right here in front of you. Use proper tone so they might heed your advice... Seek the companionship of an indestructible yet emotionally mature sentient robot.
  2. Introduction Who are you? Sum yourself up in one sentence. Just a girl from The Fens with superpowers. Do you have any nicknames, street names, titles, or nom de plume? Not that I know of, outside of Shooting Star. Some of the crooks I’ve put down have said very colourful things but nothings stuck, y’know? What is your full birth name? Alice Armstrong Where do you live? In the Fens, with my parents. How old are you? What year were you born (if applicable)? 2004, I’m sixteen. Physical Traits What is your gender? If not applicable, please explain. I am a girl. How would you describe your heritage? Freedom City, just regular american. How tall are you? Five ten. What is your body type? Hourglass figure. Do you have any particular weaknesses, such as allergies or physical disabilities? Well I used to have a condition that caused my muscles to atrophy, but not anymore, ‘cause of my powers. Now I just need to watch how much I let my weight actually rest on the ground, and I am weak to divine powers. How do you carry yourself? Are you graceful, or heavy on your feet? Can you be stealthy, do you walk with confidence? Would it be too much to say graceful and confident? I will admit it’s a bit easier to do since I can fly, if I didn’t all I’d be able to say is that being heavy on my feet would be an understatement. Apparently I’m also real quiet when I walk for the same reason. Describe your skin, eye, and hair color. In order? White, blue and black. How do you wear your hair, if applicable? Do you have facial hair? I wear it loose, not much I can do with it at this length, and I’ve yet to meet a hair tie that lasts very long in it. I can say I don’t and hopefully never will, have facial hair. Do you consider yourself attractive? Do others? I think I’m pretty, apparently the people at school think I am too. Do you have any scars, tattoos, piercings, or birthmarks? No scars, no piercings or tattoos either although if it wasn’t for the whole secret identity deal it might have been funny to go in for one and see it fail spectacularly, but I’d probably feel bad afterwards, when all their stuff breaks. I do have a birthmark, apparently. It’s between my shoulder blades. Do you resemble anyone famous? Not that I know of. Do you have a dominant hand? Right handed. What kind of clothing do you wear? Well, mostly it’s second hand stuff stitched up to fit me a bit better. I have at least one hoodie from my brother that hasn’t been modified and I nearly disappear into it when I wear it. Do you wear makeup? Not unless there’s a reason to. I don’t bother as Shooting Star, since my mask covers up most of my face, and I don’t in my civvies since I just don’t really see the point. What is your vocal range? Is your voice distinctive in some way? I’m a contralto, which is pretty rare apparently. Do you have any distinctive habits, nervous tics, or mannerisms? Where did they come from, and what causes them? Do other people notice and remark on these habits? Do they annoy you or other people? I can’t say I do, at least that anyone’s mentioned. History Where do you come from? Freedom City, born and raised. Did you expect me to say I’m a humanoid alien from a dying planet or something? Have you made any major moves, or do you live in your hometown? Lived in the same place in the Fens my whole life. Do you feel loyal to your country of citizenship? Do you consider yourself patriotic? How do you feel about the government of your country? I’d say I’m fairly patriotic, but I’m loyal to the people before the government or anything like that. How do you feel about the place you come from? I’m proud to say I was raised in the Fens. It’s home, regardless or what anyone else thinks. Where is your home town? What was/is it like? Do you seriously need to ask where Freedom City is? Growing up, were most of the people you knew similar to you, or were you somehow a minority? How did that affect you? Not a minority, so I know I had plenty of things easier than others. Is there something you've always been really good at or really bad at? How has that affected your life? I’ve always been pretty smart, not a super genius or whatever, but smart. And of course my power is a wrench in the works but it wasn’t an always thing. Were there any traumatic experiences in your early years (death of a family member, abandonment, orphaned at an early age)? Not when I was really little no, I wouldn’t even say my condition, since it was just a fact of life. Briefly describe a defining moment in your childhood and how it influenced your life. Well, I think my power would be the big one, but the worst was finding out my brother was the Steel Shade. It wasn’t intentional, he was robbing a place, and I turned up to stop him. So we fought and I ended up catching him under the mask with a swing that was out of measure. It comes tearing off, clattering to the ground, and I see my brother with a great gash on his face from the edge of the mask. He ran and I haven’t had to go against him since but god how are you supposed to react to that? It influenced me a lot. Hell, it’s how I know where we got these powers from. What stupid things did you do when you were younger? Best one I can think of was when I was still learning my powers. I’d figured out that I was pretty hard to hurt, y’know and that I could fly in space. So I decided to see what would happen if I just… dropped from orbit. I figured I could pull out of the fall any time I wanted since I can fly. So there I am looking down from what I know now is the L1 Lagrange point between the Earth and Moon, in one of my favourite dresses, a nice blue sundress with white flowers up the left side, and some nice flats, and then I push towards Earth to start falling. Needless to say, I was moving pretty quick by the end, and lit up immediately upon hitting the atmosphere. It didn’t hurt but safe to say the dress was gone pretty much immediately, since I just hit the atmosphere at nearly ten thousand miles an hour, and I know I’ve screwed up, given it doesn’t even take half a minute to reach the ground, so I try to pull out of the fall, cause I was pretty sure I wasn’t going to survive hitting the ground. Well I did slow down, but still hit the ground really fast. So instead of just splattering myself over the ground, I find myself buried in a hole nearly a hundred feet deep, and without any clothes. Cue the spy movie music, cause getting home without being seen was a nightmare. Shame about the dress though. Where did you go to school? How much school did you have, and did you enjoy it? I still go to school, and will for a couple more years. Not sure if I’ll go to college, but I can’t say I haven’t enjoyed school, despite having to be really careful in gym class. Do you have any mementos of your childhood? What are they, and why did you keep them? If you have none, why not? I have a bunch, I live in my old childhood room, and one thing that comes with not having a huge amount of money is you don’t really throw things away. I’ll probably at least store some when I move out. When did you decide to become a hero? Why? Did anyone influence you one way or another in the decision? Well it was pretty much the second I got powers and stopped freaking out about the fact that I had them. I had always loved heroes and the idea of helping others but you can’t really do much as a hero when you can’t walk on your own. As to someone influencing me… It’s probably gonna sound cliche and corny but I have to say the Centurion. Yeah he was gone before I was even born, but I remember seeing the tributes and documentaries, and listening to my parents and grandparents just talk about him. He inspired hope even after being gone for so long and then I got powers, like his and I knew that even if I only make a pale reflection of the original superhero, I had to try. Even a reflection casts light. Is the reason you give people for becoming a hero different than your real reason? If so, why? Not really. I want to help people, and I don’t see a problem with telling people that. Do you have any deep, dark secrets in the past that may come back to haunt you? My brother is a superpowered mercenary who works with actual villains, and I know his identity but not the other way around. Also I don’t know if being powered by an artifact of the Greek Gods counts, since I don’t know which god it belonged to. I probably would keep it secret if it was like, Ares or Hades or something. Do you represent yourself as being different from who you really are? Why? As in do I secretly hate all the cats I save from trees? Not really… Wait, actually that’s not entirely true. It’s… I really enjoy fighting, I get a massive adrenaline rush, and there’s always this bit of trepidation of like ‘What if this guy is strong enough? What if he can actually hurt me?’ and it makes every fight exciting. Heart pounding. I don’t really let people know, because I think it’s more reassuring and inspiring to not think that the person between you and the mobster with the laser gun is having fun here. If you do have these secrets, what do you fear would happen if the truth became known? How far would you go to protect those secrets? Well obviously people finding out my brother’s secret ID would hurt the family, my parents would be devastated. If people knew that he was Shooting Star’s brother and it became public knowledge, people would lose faith in me, and worse he would now know my secret identity. Otherwise I don’t really know what to worry about in regards to which God I get my power from. And I can’t really say what I would do. I kinda just have to have my fingers crossed that no one finds out Aaron’s identity, and to keep the secret myself. I don’t really have to do anything to keep the secret of my power’s origin- I’m the only person who knows. Do you have any sort of criminal record? If so, is it public knowledge? No record, I’m clean. Family What are your biological parents' names? My parents are Calvin and Linda Armstrong. Were you raised by them? If not, please explain and describe who raised you. I was raised by them. What was their standing in the community? What did/do they do for a living? I mean there’s some standing, my parents are friendly with a lot of the community and most people know that they’ll help where they can. My father is the personnel manager for a Factory Worker Union, and my mother is a cleaner. Where are your parents now? They are in the same place as ever. Or do you mean like right now? Did your family stay in one area or move around a lot? We’ve stayed in the same house my entire life. How did you get along with their parents? How do you get along with them now (if applicable). I’ve always gotten along with them fine. I love them and they love me. How do your parents view you now, or how would they? Nothing’s really changed, but I think they would be proud if they knew I was a superhero. Do you have any siblings? If so, how many and what are their names? Describe your relationship with them. I have one brother, Aaron. I got along with him well, but it’s hard to stay the same knowing that he’s Steel Shade What was your birth order in the family? My brother is the eldest, followed by me. Where are your siblings now (if applicable)? Do they have families of their own? What do they do? Aaron is living on his own in the Theatre District. He works part time as a mechanic, and does the whole Steel Shade thing. Do you stay in touch with them or have you become estranged? He lives nearby so he visits often, which can be awkward sometimes given… you know. Do you love or hate one member of the family in particular? I don’t hate any of my family. Do I dislike that Aaron is Steel Shade? Yes. Do I hate him for it? Of course not. He’s still my brother. Is any member of the family special to you in any way (perhaps, as a confidant, mentor, or arch-rival)? My whole family is special to me, none more than any others. Are there any black (or white) sheep in the family (including you)? If so, please explain. Aaron probably would be if people knew, but it’s a secret identity for a reason. Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? If so, please explain, including how it has affected your life. Not that I know of. Do you have a partner and children currently? If so, please describe them. No partner, and I am a bit young to have kids, don't you think? If you do not have a partner or children, do you want them someday? How firm are you in your opinion on this, and what might change your mind? I do want at least a partner, and maybe kids, but it’s… complicated. There’s no way I could be with someone long term and keep the fact that I’m Shooting Star from them, which is a lot. There’s also a slight issue, in that my powers make me incredibly dense. I hardly want to accidentally crush whoever I get with. What type of person would be your ideal mate? Well… It needs to be someone really trustworthy, even more than normal. Otherwise just the normal stuff, you know? Someone kind, funny. Stuff like that. Relationships Do you have any close friends? If so, please describe them, and how you came to be close to them. I have some friends at school, but there’s a bit of disconnect given that I spend a while as Shooting Star, so I don’t get super close. Do you have a best friend? If so, how did they become your best friend? How close are you to your best friend? No best friend really, it’s hard to get that close when you have a second life. If you were to go missing, who would worry about you? Well my family of course, and my classmates and teachers would probably worry. Have you lost any loves? If so, how did it happen, and what did you do? No young loves cut tragically short, sorry to disappoint. Do you have any bitter enemies? If so, please describe them and their history with you. Nothing like that either. Mostly I’ve just stopped things like burglaries and stick ups. If you have enemies, how do you think they might attempt to work against you in the future? Well I don’t have any enemies so…? What is the worst thing someone has done to you? I’ve been shot at a lot. Worst in that line was a little bit ago where a gangster shot a rocket launcher at another hero, which I stopped. That could’ve hurt. Where do your loyalties lie? In what order? The people, my family, the country. In that order. Who or what do you trust the most? Why? Hmm, that’s a good question. Probably my parents, purely by process of elimination. Who or what do you despise? Why? I don’t really despise anyone, in terms of what there is a lot of evil to draw hate, but talking about what I hate about villains and monsters isn’t exactly a short list. What qualities do you admire most in other people? Are these qualities you possess? I admire people who inspire the people around them to be better. Heroes are more than people in tights, they give the people they help hope and courage. I hope to live up to this ideal one day. What qualities do you hate most in other people? Do you have any of those qualities? The willingness to hurt others for selfish goals and crush others down to get what you want. I don’t believe I have these traits and hope I never do. Do you have a secret identity? If so, who knows it? Do you hide it from people who are close to you? Why? I have a secret identity, I’m Alice as a civilian and Shooting Star as a hero. No one other than me knows it, and I do hide it from those close to me, because I don’t want the risks to them or to my identity. Do you work well on teams and in groups? Are you a leader or a follower? I can’t really say. I’ve only worked with other heroes once, and it wasn’t really a team, more like three people who happened to be in the same place who did some good. I also can’t really tell you based on sports given that until I was twelve I couldn’t play, and after I got my powers I was always more focused on not accidentally killing someone. Are you on a super team? If so, how do you get along with your comrades? Do you trust them, or do you have secrets from them? No super team sorry. Are you a member of any church, fraternal organization, club, committee, political party, or other group? How much time do you spend on that? Well that’s a tough one. My family is Christian although not super big about it, I think it’s more about the community than the faith, and then I found out that my powers came from the actual Greek Gods, which kinda threw me for a loop, and left me with so many questions. Like, is it just the Greek Gods, or are there other ones? If there are other ones, is it allowed for someone powered by one set of gods to pray to different ones? Even if I do decide to worship the Greek Gods, does it matter, since with proof like my powers there isn’t really room for faith. So, uh… Good question. Personality & Beliefs Who are your heroes? The Centurion and Freedom League are pretty big ones. I’m kinda a hero nerd. Outside of, well, hero heroes I’d have to say my parents. They always worked so hard to make sure my brother and I would be okay. Did you ever become disillusioned with former heroes or idols? If so, why and what were the circumstances? Well, I used to look up to my brother. I mean he was always so strong, did an apprenticeship as both a mechanic and an electrician and was talking about going to college, and funding it himself. It was a really big deal, and then I found out how he was getting the money. Do you like being a hero? If so, what is the most rewarding part? If not, what makes you keep doing it? I love being a hero. Going out to help people is great, and I have to admit the adrenaline rush from facing down a gunman or falling from orbit is just great. Is there anything that would make you give up hero work, or even switch sides? Anything that would make me give up hero work… I guess if I thought that I was doing more harm than good, otherwise not really. And you can bet your ass I’d never go to the other side. What are your short term goals (what would you like to be doing within a year)? Well obviously there’s the whole ‘passing school with good grades’ thing, but other than that I’d say still doing hero work. What are your long term goals (what would you like to be doing twenty years from now)? Well hopefully I’d have found someone by then, and I’d like to go to college and be working with that maybe, but only if it didn’t interfere with hero work. What is your greatest fear? Why? What do you do when something triggers this fear? My greatest fear… I’d have to say helplessness. Being unable to do anything. I had enough of that growing up. If I’m feeling helpless I dig in and try to fight my way through it. Is there anything you would give you life for? There are lots of things that would be worth my life. That came out wrong. I’m not saying that I don’t value my life, but I don’t hold it above anyone else’s. Everyone is worth saving, and if that costs me my life, so be it. How do you feel about money and material wealth? Do you desire it or disdain it? Are you miserly with what you have, or do you like to share? Is it mark of success, or a means to an end? Money is money. I am definitely frugal though, a habit picked up from my parents, but if I can help people with it I’d definitely share it. Definitely a means to an end, not the end itself. How do you generally treat others? I try to be kind and helpful. Do unto others, you know? Are you a trusting person? Has your trust ever been abused? I’d say I’m no more or less trusting than anyone else. My trust hasn't ever been abused, although it was broken when I found out my brother was a super mercenary villain. Are you introverted (shy and withdrawn) or extroverted (outgoing)? Do you have a lot of self-confidence? Fairly extroverted I guess, I generally think I have a fair amount of self-confidence. How do you act around attractive, available members of your preferred sex? Uh well. I don’t really… I mean there were some guys at school who wanted to get with me and were pretty good looking, but it was only because of how I looked, not anything else, so I wasn’t interested. After turning them down a couple times people kinda stopped asking as much. What are your most annoying habits? This was already a question, but as far as I know I don’t have any habits like that. Do you feel contempt for any general category of people? Who are they, and why? Well, villains and criminals I suppose, for the obvious reasons, they’re willing to hurt others to help themselves. What is your favorite food? Do you prefer any particular type of food? Do you take the time to enjoy your food, or do you eat as fast as you can? Uh well… Don’t laugh? I uh, my favourite food is Ambrosia. I always savour ambrosia, but otherwise eat pretty fast. What is your favorite drink (alcoholic or otherwise)? I’m a bit young for alcohol, but I have tried wine and quite liked it. Otherwise I like hot chocolate. What is your favorite treat (dessert)? Well I did just say ambrosia. Are there any specific foodstuffs that you find disgusting or refuse to eat? Oysters are awful. I’d rather starve. What is your favorite color? Are there any colors you dislike? I quite like blue, although the reds and stuff from reentry are quite pretty. What sort of music do you like? Is there any that you hate? I quite like older music, like Hooked on a Feeling, Star Man and Under Pressure. If you have a favorite scent, what is it? Hmm, well I really like the smell of honey and liquorice. Separately. Do you have a favorite animal? I like eagles and other birds of prey. What is your most treasured possession? Why? My most treasured possession would probably be my breastplate. It’s… It means a lot. I’d saved a metalworker’s daughter from a driveby, and he made it for me. He repairs it for me too, given that the only piece of my costume that gets damaged as much is my cape. Do you enjoy "roughing it", or do you prefer your creature comforts? I enjoy my creature comforts, but roughing it is quite satisfying. It helps I suppose that I’m not bothered about the elements and smaller things like mosquitos don’t really affect me. I know at one point I was going to go to a friends house, but that fell through and instead of telling my parents I just slept in orbit. It was actually pretty nice. Is there a job or a task you would absolutely refuse to do? Well, villainy obviously, but otherwise, absolutely refusing to do something is a pretty strong reaction. Do you consider yourself a spiritual person? If so, how do your beliefs affect your life? How important is it to you? I think this was kinda already asked, or at least I already explained it. It’s a bit confusing. Was your faith influenced or molded by anyone special? Well my parents, obviously. Other than that, not really. If you belong to a religious organization, how often do you attend? Do you have a specific place of worship, or friends within the organization? How much do you agree with the beliefs of your organization? I go with my parents to church when I have time. Could you kill? Have you killed? I have not and could not kill. What circumstances led to you forming that conviction, or taking that action? I’m not a murderer, and am not willing to become one. Are there circumstances under which you believe it is permissible to kill? What are they? There are not. Murder is murder. You stop the bad guy and then arrest them. How would you react to watching someone kill another person? Would your reaction be different if the killer was a friend or an enemy of yours? I would try to take them in. It is illegal, friend or not. How would you react if something important was stolen from you? If it was from Alice then I would go to the police of course, if it was from Shooting Star I would try to get it back myself. How would you react to public humiliation? Probably just deal with it and move on, maybe try to save some face. How would you react if a good friend or relative were purposely or accidentally killed? Has it happened to you? I would try to bring the killer to justice. If it was an accident then that would make it a bit different, but if they ran then it is still a crime. What do you consider to be the worst crime someone could commit and why? There are a few. Kidnapping, murder, torture. They all deeply hurt people, both the victim and those close to them. If your life were to end in 24 hours, what five things would you do in those remaining hours? Five things… I’d probably tell my parents about my identity and that I was dying, go talk to Aaron about his being Steel Shade and well, the previously mentioned. Maybe visit some of the other planets. I’d probably spend the rest of my time with my family. Not like I could really do much hero work with just twenty four hours. Career & Training Do you have any special training in your hero skills? If so, where and how did you get it? Ha! I wish. Self taught. Who taught you the most about your heroing abilities? What was your relationship with that person? No one really taught me anything. Do you have any particularly unusual skills? How did you acquire them? I’m pretty good at physics and I’ve picked up some stuff from my work as a hero. Do you do something besides hero work for a living? Have you ever done anything else, or do you plan to? Nothing for a living, I live with my parents and they don’t want me to have to work when I could be focusing on school. What is your preferred combat style? I punch things. Have you ever received any awards or honours? I mean, plenty of people have thanked me, but nothing official. What skill areas would you like most to improve in? Is there anything you can't do that you wish desperately you could? Well, I could use more practice actually hitting people, and a bit better street knowledge. How do you act around people who are more skilled than you in areas you'd like to improve? Are you jealous, or do you try and learn? I’d probably be pretty jealous to be honest, but I would try to learn. Lifestyle & Hobbies What is a normal day for you? How do you feel when something interrupts this routine? I get up, get ready to head out, go to school, mostly do my homework at school, head home, finish any homework, then probably go out to the ‘library’, which is actually going out to be Shooting Star. Do you have any hobbies, or interests outside hero work? What are they, and where did you pick them up? Well I do enjoy physics, although I’m sure part of that is being able to experience those physics for myself. I also like the normal things, you know, gaming, wasting countless hours on forums and stuff like that. What do you do for fun? That is the same as hobbies, although I suppose you could also add superheroing to the list. Do you have a costume? What does it look like? It’s a white bodysuit with sky blue gloves and boots, a white cape with blue on the inside and a bronze chestplate. How do you normally dress when not in costume? I wear hand-me-downs from my brother and some friends of the family, generally altered to fit me. What do you wear to bed most nights? A singlet and underwear, I don’t really need to wear anything heavier since I don’t have a problem with heat or cold. Do you wear any special jewelry? What is it, and what does it look like? Nope, although I know my mother has some old jewelry that might end up being mine one day. Do you have a special place where you keep your valuables? My room. Although I must admit I’ve considered starting to store things on the moon or something. What's your preferred means of local travel? How about long distance? Well, when I can’t get away with flying somewhere it’s either bussing or in my parents’ car. Long distance is always flying, since that’s the only time I travel. Miscellaneous Have you ever made a will, or tried to make arrangements for your death? What provisions did you make? I have a will, although right now it’s not particularly important. I have also been trying to set things up so that if I die my parents can find out. If your features were to be destroyed beyond recognition, is there any other way of identifying your body? Well obviously there’s DNA and dental records, but the other way would probably be the birthmark I mentioned between my shoulder blades. What would you like to be remembered for after your death? For being a hero and inspiring hope. Do you believe you pose a threat to the public? Why or why not? No, because I wouldn’t do anything to make myself one. Someone else with my powers could be, but I myself am not. What do you perceive as your greatest strength? Hmm, should I say my ability to deadlift an APC or my dazzling good looks. Seriously though? The ideals I aspire to. What do you perceive as your greatest weakness? I know I can be a little reckless… Okay, a lot reckless and that it might get me into trouble at some point. As a player, if you could, what advice would you give your character? Speak as if he/she were sitting right here in front of you. Use proper tone so they might heed your advice... You need to talk to your brother about him being Steel Shade, it will only lead to more issues down the road if you sit on this. He's still your family and the only way to go forward is by talking with him.

Can you be stealthy, do you walk with confidence? I would like to say graceful, and I can be stealthy, although when I’m untransformed I’m not super great at it. As to walking with confidence… I suppose? It depends on the situation. Describe your skin, eye, and hair colour. Well, I’m a bit paler than I was before since I’ve been inside more. I’m on the pale side now, and I’m freckly still. I have green eyes and red hair. How do you wear your hair, if applicable? Do you have facial hair? I generally wear it loose. I braid it if it keeps getting in my face. Do you consider yourself attractive? Do others? I don’t really think of it, although everyone in my village said I was. Do you have any scars, tattoos, piercings, or birthmarks? I have a few scars, no tattoos, piercing or birthmarks though. Do you resemble anyone famous?

No, I have practised a little bit, but not much. What is your vocal range? Is your voice distinctive in some way? Someone called my singing voice a ‘Soprano’, but I’m not really sure what that means. Do you have any distinctive habits, nervous tics, or mannerisms? Where did they come from, and what causes them? Do other people notice and remark on these habits? Do they annoy you or other people? I’ve taken to humming and singing when I’m alone, but haven’t done it around people much. History Where do you come from? A village in the Kingdom of Kent Have you made any major moves, or do you live in your hometown? I live in London now, and my village doesn’t exist anymore. You could say that’s a fairly major move. Do you feel loyal to your country of citizenship? Do you consider yourself patriotic? How do you feel about the government of your country? It’s too early to really judge whether I have any opinions like that. How do you feel about the place you come from? It was my home, and I dearly miss it, but there’s nothing I can do to get it back. Where is your home town? What was/is it like? It was in the Kingdom of Kent, which I suppose is just Kent now. It wasn’t an easy life, and there wasn’t the constant activity of London, but it was nice. Growing up, were most of the people you knew similar to you or were you somehow a minority? How did that affect you? No one else was like me in my village, I was the only one with powers. It… it was hard at times. No one could help me with any issues I had with them and to a degree, everyone was scared of me. So it got pretty lonely. Is there something you've always been really good at or really bad at? How has that affected your life? I’ve always been pretty good at singing and dancing, and most of the people in my village said that I was really good at talking to people, but I did lose that a bit since I’m in what might as well be a different world, language and all. Were there any traumatic experiences in your early years (death of a family member, abandonment, orphaned at an early age)? My mother died giving birth to one of my siblings, and one of my brothers got sick and died. Otherwise when I got my powers ranks up there. I was coming up on five years old, and my body just started changing. It took two days to transform back. A few days after that I popped into the Shattenwelt and nearly got eaten by a Shadowbeast, pretty traumatic as far as things go. Briefly describe a defining moment in your childhood and how it influenced your life. Well, other than my powers, the main one other than that would be when Dougal attacked my village, which I’m not going into detail about, but in the end, it’s why I’m here. What stupid things did you do when you were younger? The big one that stands out was this one time I played with a knife. I was practicing some of the fighting I had been taught, but I wasn’t supposed to be using that knife, so I tried to run away and hide when I heard my father coming back. Then I tripped, and cut myself open. Where did you go to school? How much schooling did you have, and did you enjoy it? I didn’t really have ‘school’, but I did get taught by pretty close to the entire village Do you have any mementos from your childhood? What are they, and why did you keep them? If you have none, why not? I have a few small things tucked away in my apartment. I picked them up after Dougal attacked my village, or had them on me before he attacked. When did you decide to become a hero? Why? Did anyone influence you one way or another in the decision? My entire village influenced me there. I was the only person anyone had heard of with powers, so it was just a natural step to ‘Be a Hero one day’ like the people in the stories. So in the time since I got my powers I was on that path. Is the reason you give people for becoming a hero different than your real reason? If so, why? No, it might be when I meet more people, but even then I’ll try sticking to the truth, just modernize the tale. Do you have any deep, dark secrets in the past that may come back to haunt you? If you count not wanting people to know that I’m nearly 1400 years old as a deep, dark secret? Other than that, my Secret identity? Do you represent yourself as being different from who you really are? Why? I can’t really say. I’ve always acted the way I do to my knowledge, but I might be different than I think. If you do have these secrets, what do you fear would happen if the truth became known? How far would you go to protect those secrets? I just… I don’t want people to treat me differently. Some of the men from the Ministry of Powers treated me like a primitive idiot until Síþwíf Dee set them straight. I don’t really know what my limit would be, but I wouldn’t kill anyone or anything like that. Do you have any sort of criminal record? If so, is it public knowledge? I haven’t really had the chance to get one, so no? Family What are your biological parents' names? My father was Ailill Reódfeax and my mother was Áine Hwitjferjgt. Were you raised by them? If not, please explain and describe who raised you. I was raised by my mother and father until my mother died. The villagers worked to raise all the children. What was their standing in the community? What did/do they do for a living? My father was the village blacksmith, which made him a pillar of the community. Where are your parents now? Dead. Did your family stay in one area or move around a lot? We lived in the village for our whole lives, although we went to Canterbury a few times, but never moved. How did you get along with your parents? How do you get along with them now (if applicable). My father was a hard man, but fair. My mother… I don’t remember an enormous amount, but I remember her being kind. How do your parents view you now, or how would they? I… I like to think they would be proud, but… I failed to stop Dougal, and I think that would affect their opinion. Do you have any siblings? If so how many and what are their names? Describe your relationship with them. I had two brothers, Cadwgan and Iorwerth as well as one sister, Aisling. What was your birth order in the family? I was the oldest, then it was Cadwgan, Aisling and finally Iorwerth. Where are your siblings now (if applicable)? Do they have families of their own? What do they do? They are also dead. Do you stay in touch with them or have you become estranged? Are- are you trying to be funny? Do you love or hate one member of the family in particular? I loved all of my family, although I have to admit my father was hard to live with at points. Is any member of the family special to you in any way (perhaps, as a confidant, mentor, or arch-rival)? I’d have to say my mother, while she was alive. Everyone else was trying to teach me to be a mighty warrior and such, she tried to teach me to be a person. To be kind. Are there any black (or white) sheep in the family (including you)? If so, please explain. ‘Black Sheep’ is a bit harsh, but it would have been me. None of my family could really understand what it was like, having powers and everyone expecting me to be a Hero. Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? If so, please explain, including how it has affected your life. Not that I know of. Do you have a partner and children currently? If so, please describe them. It’s a bit early for that, isn’t it? If you do not have a partner or children, do you want them someday? How firm are you in your opinion on this, and what might change your mind? I think I do, but I can’t say I’m ‘firm’ in that decision. It depends on if I find the right person. What type of person would be your ideal mate? That’s a good question, but I suppose they’d have to be able to accept what I am. Maybe I’ll know when I’m older. Relationships Do you have any close friends? If so, please describe them, and how you came to be close to them. I feel like I’m getting close to the members of Vanguard, and I think how I came to feel this way is rather self-explanatory, they helped me when I needed it most. I would probably not be half as free as I am without them. Do you have a best friend? If so, how did they become your best friend? How close are you to your best friend? I don’t have a best friend, I feel about equally close to all the major people in my life right now. I hope it changes soon. If you were to go missing, who would worry about you? Well, I know the Ministry of Powers would worry, due to that being their job, and I think Síþwíf Dee and Clara and Brega Sloane and Walker would all worry for me. Have you lost any loves? If so, how did it happen, and what did you do? In the romantic sense of the word? No. But otherwise, I’d say I’ve covered the subject. Do you have any bitter enemies? If so, please describe them and their history with you. Dougal, although I suppose that would be had. He attacked my village, killed those who tried to resist and captured the rest. He was awful. If you have enemies, how do you think they might attempt to work against you in the future? Dougal’s dead, but I imagine were he somehow alive through some magic or something and was after me, he’d try to destroy my life. Target my home, the Vanguard, that sort of thing. What is the worst thing someone has done to you? Killed my family and thrown me forward in time. Where do your loyalties lie? In what order? Vanguard, people, England and the Ministry of Powers, in that order. Who or what do you trust the most? Why? Vanguard, the people in it, not the organization itself. If it wasn’t for them I would have never gotten the chance to start again. Who or what do you despise? Why? Dougal, predictably. I don’t feel like I need to repeat myself again. What qualities do you admire most in other people? Are these qualities you possess? I admire a lot of qualities, kindness, honesty, bravery and so forth, and I’d like to think that I possess these qualities. What qualities do you hate most in other people? Do you have any of those qualities? My honest answer? I hate the cruel and manipulative, and I know that I can be the former. I try not to be though. Do you have a secret identity? If so, who knows it? Do you hide it from people who are close to you? Why? Is that even a question? Yes I have a secret identity. The Ministry of Powers and the members of Vanguard know it. I don’t hide it from the people I am close to, they already know it. Do you work well on teams and in groups? Are you a leader or a follower? I’d like to think I’m good at both, but that remains to be seen, doesn’t it? Are you on a super team? If so, how do you get along with your comrades? Do you trust them, or do you have secrets from them? I work with Vanguard, and I think I get along well with them. As to the last part, if I didn’t trust them, I wouldn’t be a team member would I? Are you a member of any church, fraternal organization, club, committee, political party, or other group? How much time do you spend on that? I am not a member of any such group. Personality & Beliefs Who are your heroes? Vanguard. Did you ever become disillusioned with former heroes or idols? If so, why and what were the circumstances? Not so far. Do you like being a hero? If so, what is the most rewarding part? If not, what makes you keep doing it? I… I like being a hero, for all that I’ve done of it. The most rewarding part is easy- I like to help people. Is there anything that would make you give up hero work, or even switch sides? To give up hero work I’d say, either a big enough betrayal by someone I trust or if it was to protect people. To switch sides is… if for some reason I felt I could help more from the other side but that’s still hero work I suppose… otherwise, I’d say if being a hero or just stepping aside compromised my morals too much. If someone like Dougal was to become a ‘hero’ I couldn’t support that and doing nothing is the same supporting them. What are your short term goals (what would you like to be doing within a year)? Síþwíf Dee talked to me about it. I’m going to be going to a school for heroes, which can hopefully help me control my powers. What are your long term goals (what would you like to be doing twenty years from now)? To be honest, outside of hero work I don’t know. I just don’t know enough to make that decision yet. What is your greatest fear? Why? What do you do when something triggers this fear? Magic. I can’t even watch a movie with magic, it stresses me out too much. I panic and start to shut down, and if it’s too much I try to run. I’m not proud of it, but it’s the truth. Is there anything you would give you life for? The people in Vanguard, and the people who can’t protect themselves. How do you feel about money and material wealth? Do you desire it or disdain it? Are you miserly with what you have, or do you like to share? Is it a mark of success, or a means to an end? I don’t really care all too much about money. I know it’s important and all, but the way this world works is still just a little alien to me, and the way money is treated is part of it. How do you generally treat others? I treat others as I would have them treat me. With respect and honour. Are you a trusting person? Has your trust ever been abused? While I am trusting, thankfully, my trust has not been abused. Are you introverted (shy and withdrawn) or extroverted (outgoing)? Do you have a lot of self-confidence? I wouldn’t describe myself as either, but I can’t really say. Everyone knew everyone in my village and since coming here it’s been a rather different experience. Maybe I’ll figure it out. I do think I have plenty of self-confidence, however. How do you act around attractive, available members of your preferred sex? I’ve never really thought about it. I never thought about the boys in the village as such. What are your most annoying habits? Didn’t we already ask this question? I’d guess my humming and singing, but no one’s commented on it yet. Do you feel contempt for any general category of people? Who are they, and why? I'd say no, not contempt. What is your favorite food? Do you prefer any particular type of food? Do you take the time to enjoy your food, or do you eat as fast as you can? Well, my list of foods tried is rather more limited than most, but so far I'm going to say pumpkin pie, and while I do eat quickly, I enjoy my food. What is your favorite drink (alcoholic or otherwise)? I have had wine and beer a few times, but not since I arrived. I have tried tea and the bubbly drinks, and liked them. I can't say I have a favourite though. What is your favorite treat (dessert)? I think that got answered. Are there any specific foodstuffs that you find disgusting or refuse to eat? I can't say I've found anything disgusting, just things I don't like as much. What is your favorite color? Are there any colors you dislike? I like a variety of colours, but if I had to pick one I'd say… blue. What sort of music do you like? Is there any that you hate? I can't say I hate any specific kind of music, but I do love the music I grew up with. If you have a favorite scent, what is it? I like vanilla. Do you have a favorite animal? Always had a soft spot for dogs and foxes. What is your most treasured possession? Why? I mentioned the things tucked away in my apartment. The main ones are my father's knife, and a pendant of my mother's. Do you enjoy "roughing it", or do you prefer your creature comforts? I suppose I'm fine with that, since that compared to what I have now my whole life was roughing it. Is there a job or a task you would absolutely refuse to do? As in regular task, or hero task? Because if it's the former, no. If the latter, probably not, within reason of course. Do you consider yourself a spiritual person? If so, how do your beliefs affect your life? How important is it to you? Sort of. I was Christian, but I'm not sure anymore. Was your faith influenced or molded by anyone special? It was just expected. I never knew any different. But after everything that's happened I don't know where I stand. If you belong to a religious organization, how often do you attend? Do you have a specific place of worship, or friends within the organization? How much do you agree with the beliefs of your organization? I don't belong to anything like that. Could you kill? Have you killed? I know I could. I even know I was planning on it with Dougal. And… I don't know about the second question. When I went after Dougal I wasn't thinking straight, I might have killed some of his men but I can't remember. What circumstances led to you forming that conviction, or taking that action? He took everything from me. My family dead, my people captured. I just… went mad I suppose. I forgot about being a person and just… well you know. Are there circumstances under which you believe it is permissible to kill? What are they? I- I don't know. I know that I wanted to kill Dougal, but would it have been justified? I don't think I can or should say. How would you react to watching someone kill another person? Would your reaction be different if the killer was a friend or an enemy of yours? That's a tough question it may seem hypocritical but if someone tried to do what I tried under similar circumstances I'd probably try to steer them away from that path. How would you react if something important was stolen from you? I would try to get it back of course. How would you react to public humiliation? I suppose that depends. Was it an accident? If so I'd probably get over it. If it was intentional then I'd probably get mad but I wouldn't hurt anyone over it or something. How would you react if a good friend or relative were purposely or accidentally killed? Has it happened to you? If it was an accident I'd grieve. On purpose I'd probably try to get justice. And yes on both counts. What do you consider to be the worst crime someone could commit and why? The worst crime would probably be slavery, especially using powers to enforce it. If your life were to end in 24 hours, what five things would you do in those remaining hours? Five things… I’d probably start by telling everyone what was happening, then spend whatever time I could with them. I don’t really think I have more than that, other than help people where I can. Career & Training Do you have any special training in your hero skills? If so, where and how did you get it? The entire village pitched in to train me as a hero, which was special for my time, less so now I suppose. Who taught you the most about your heroing abilities? What was your relationship with that person? I’m assuming by heroing abilities I assume you mean my powers, in which case no one. No one had any idea how to train me there, so I’m self taught. Do you have any particularly unusual skills? How did you acquire them? I can sing and dance pretty well, which might be considered unusual. I learnt how to sing and dance since we did it during festivals and I really enjoyed it. They also helped for practicing since I learn to control my breathing well to sing and dancing helped keep myself in shape. Do you do something besides hero work for a living? Have you ever done anything else, or do you plan to? I helped around the village, but that was just chores. Síþwíf Dee talked to me about attending a school for Powers, which is what I’m going to be doing soon. What is your preferred combat style? I stick them with my spear. Have you ever received any awards or honours? No. What skill areas would you like most to improve in? Is there anything you can't do that you wish desperately you could? I wish I could stop transforming against my will, otherwise, I just want to get better at my various skills. How do you act around people who are more skilled than you in areas you'd like to improve? Are you jealous, or do you try and learn? I listen to what they are willing to teach. Lifestyle & Hobbies What is a normal day for you? How do you feel when something interrupts this routine? I wake up with the dawn, set an alarm and dance and sing for an hour. Then I shower after that, then have breakfast. Then I study for a few hours with breaks to keep myself sane. I have a light lunch, then practice fighting and practice my other skills. After that, I’ll read or watch something, which helps with my English, until I make myself supper. After that, I’ll wind down by relaxing until I go to bed. I don’t mind interruptions since they are generally important, and it gives me a chance to talk to someone, which can be nice. Do you have any hobbies, or interests outside hero work? What are they, and where did you pick them up? Mainly singing and dancing, although I’ve been studying to catch up with people my age in terms of academics. What do you do for fun? Sing and dance, watch television or read, practicing fighting can be pretty fun at times. Do you have a costume? What does it look like? I wear my armour and a mask. How do you normally dress when not in costume? I’m sure I’ve answered this already, but my style is pretty varied, since I’m still finding what it is. What do you wear to bed most nights? This is getting a bit personal, no? I’m not sure if I’m comfortable… I have to answer it? What if I don’t? Fine. I generally wear a big t-shirt. Do you wear any special jewelry? What is it, and what does it look like? I don’t. I keep all the special things from my old life safe in my apartment. Do you have a special place where you keep your valuables? In a box on my closet. What's your preferred means of local travel? How about long distance? I tend to walk or run short distances, and I don’t generally have a preferred long distance method, since I haven’t really moved around a lot. Miscellaneous Have you ever made a will, or tried to make arrangements for your death? What provisions did you make? I haven’t, although now that you mention it I probably should. If your features were to be destroyed beyond recognition, is there any other way of identifying your body? Not that I know of? What would you like to be remembered for after your death? I would like to be remembered as a Hero, who did everything she could to help people. Do you believe you pose a threat to the public? Why or why not? I can. Were I to lose control of my powers or be mind-controlled I would pose a danger to the public. What do you perceive as your greatest strength? I like to think that I'm well trained, although we'll have to see about that. What do you perceive as your greatest weakness? I don't have the greatest hold on my emotions, and I don't always think things through. As a player, if you could, what advice would you give your character? Speak as if he/she were sitting right here in front of you. Use proper tone so they might heed your advice… You need to slow down and rely on others. You have all the time in the world to get better and people around you who are willing to help you, let them.
  4. Introduction Who are you? Sum yourself up in one sentence. "Il Sogno ha bisogno del Buio" ("The Dream needs the Dark") Do you have any nicknames, street names, titles, or nom de plume? I go by Eli, with an English pronunciation... it's easier than "Eliseo". What is your full birth name? Eliseo Milioni... oh, you mean like second and third names? The ones your godparents give you at baptism? I guess it's Eliseo Marco Edoardo Milioni then. Where do you live? Currently? Freedom City, at the Claremont Academy dorms. How old are you? What year were you born (if applicable)? I am 17, born 1/8/2000. Physical Traits What is your gender? If not applicable, please explain. Male. How would you describe your heritage? Northern Italian I guess. How tall are you? 191cm or 6'3" for you American buddies. What is your body type? Tall... lanky... long limbed... I really don't wanna talk about it. Do you have any particular weaknesses, such as allergies or physical disabilities? I am slightly sensitive to strong light, and get burned easily by sunlight. How do you carry yourself? Are you graceful, or heavy on your feet? Can you be stealthy, do you walk with confidence? I am used to make as little sound as possible when moving, even in casual situations. I wouldn't consider myself graceful, but some have commented on it before, so I guess... a little? Describe your skin, eye, and hair color. Porcelain white for my skin, black as the abyss for my hair and eyes. How do you wear your hair, if applicable? Do you have facial hair? I usually leave my hair up to my shoulders, but considering growing it more. As for facial hair I am not even sure I can grow some anymore. Do you consider yourself attractive? Do others? Eh? I guess? I see a creepy doll when looking in a mirror, but some like the whole "uncanny valley" sort of thing, or at least that is what I tell myself not to get stuck thinking about it. Do you have any scars, tattoos, piercings, or birthmarks? None. Do you resemble anyone famous? I doubt my condition is shared by anyone famous. Do you have a dominant hand? Right one! What kind of clothing do you wear? Mostly black stuff, with white accessories. Nothing flashy or expansive... I have a thing for turtlenecks and shiny shoes. Do you wear makeup? That would just make me even more odd... What is your vocal range? Is your voice distinctive in some way? My voice? I guess it became lower pitched when I got my powers, it sort of clashes with the look. Do you have any distinctive habits, nervous tics, or mannerisms? Where did they come from, and what causes them? Do other people notice and remark on these habits? Do they annoy you or other people? The only thing that comes to my mind is my old habit of sticking my tongue out between my teeth when my mind wanders off or I concentrate. It's something that I do since childhood and for which my sis used to scold me. History Where do you come from? I come from Turin, Italy... though not the one you know of. Have you made any major moves, or do you live in your hometown? Is crash landing on a different dimension and in another continent considered a major move? Do you feel loyal to your country of citizenship? Do you consider yourself patriotic? How do you feel about the government of your country? Nah, my government was all up in the Illuminati, and I can't speak for this world's Italy. How do you feel about the place you come from? It doesn't want me back, and I don't want it back. Where is your home town? What was/is it like? My home "town" was one of the biggest, richest cities of the country. The best thing I can say though, is that you could see, smell and touch history there. Growing up, were most of the people you knew similar to you, or were you somehow a minority? How did that affect you? I was a loner most of my life, never made any real friends, apart from my sister Grazia. It... it's something that really made me ache for... affection? Love? Is there something you've always been really good at or really bad at? How has that affected your life? I have always been pretty good at sports, but even that did not make popular... sometimes I wonder if it was really me who did not want contact in some part of my mind. Were there any traumatic experiences in your early years (death of a family member, abandonment, orphaned at an early age)? My mom died when I was eight, and my father basically went paranoid crazy... is that enough? Briefly describe a defining moment in your childhood and how it influenced your life. The death of my mom turned my loving father into a paranoid conspiracy theorist... and worst thing was, he was right. What stupid things did you do when you were younger? Eh... does stealing comics and rearranging my sister's room count? Where did you go to school? How much school did you have, and did you enjoy it? Do you have any mementos of your childhood? What are they, and why did you keep them? If you have none, why not? When did you decide to become a hero? Why? Did anyone influence you one way or another in the decision?

Did your family stay in one area or move around a lot? How did you get along with their parents? How do you get along with them now (if applicable). How do your parents view you now, or how would they? Do you have any siblings? If so how many and what are their names? Describe your relationship with them. What was your birth order in the family? Where are your siblings now (if applicable)? Do they have families of their own? What do they do? Do you stay in touch with them or have you become estranged?

Are there any black (or white) sheep in the family (including you)? If so, please explain. Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? If so, please explain, including how it has affected your life. Do you have a partner and children currently? If so, please describe them. If you do not have a partner or children, do you want them someday? How firm are you in your opinion on this, and what might change your mind? What type of person would be your ideal mate? Relationships Do you have any close friends? If so, please describe them, and how you came to be close to them. Do you have a best friend? If so, how did they become your best friend? How close are you to your best friend? If you were to go missing, who would worry about you? Have you lost any loves? If so, how did it happen, and what did you do? Do you have any bitter enemies? If so, please describe them and their history with you. If you have enemies, how do you think they might attempt to work against you in the future? What is the worst thing someone has done to you? Where do your loyalties lie? In what order? Who or what do you trust the most? Why? Who or what do you despise? Why? What qualities do you admire most in other people? Are these qualities you possess? What qualities do you hate most in other people? Do you have any of those qualities? Do you have a secret identity? If so, who knows it? Do you hide it from people who are close to you? Why? Do you work well on teams and in groups? Are you a leader or a follower? Are you on a super team? If so, how do you get along with your comrades? Do you trust them, or do you have secrets from them? Are you a member of any church, fraternal organization, club, committee, political party, or other group? How much time do you spend on that?
