Introduction

 

Who are you? Sum yourself up in one sentence.

The amazing Blue Bolt,  alien gadgeteer from another galaxy!

 

Do you have any nicknames, street names, titles, or nom de plume?

The police call me ‘Not you again’.

 

What is your full birth name?

Vueriz

 

Where do you live?

Freedom City, on the planet Earth. 

 

How old are you? What year were you born (if applicable)? 

I am seventeen Earth years old. I have calculated that I was born somewhere between the Sixteenth and Seventeenth of August.

On Zirtimzar I would be approaching eighteen percent of a year old. 

 

Physical Traits

 

What is your gender? If not applicable, please explain.

I'm a girl, duh. 

 

How would you describe your heritage?

I'm from Zirtimzar, but any of the orbitals or the other bodies. Most of my family are from the southern hemisphere. 

 

How tall are you?

I’m three feet eleven inches.

 

What is your body type?

I believe the human term is ‘pear shape’, I am quite well developed for my age, although apparently my height and lack of fleshy chest parts makes me look younger to humans. 

 

Do you have any particular weaknesses, such as allergies or physical disabilities?

I can't breathe oxygen, which counts I think. Also Earth is a lot hotter than Zirtimzar, so I overheat much more easily. 

 

How do you carry yourself? Are you graceful, or heavy on your feet? Can you be stealthy, do you walk with confidence? 

I am the picture of grace, and the next time someone says I ‘scamper’ I'll build a portal around their door to send them back in time five minutes.

 

Describe your skin, eye, and hair colour.

By my people's standards I am relatively tan, although the G star Earth orbits is doing interesting things to my colouration. My skin is aquamarine, and my eyes are a similar blue to your sky. My hair is white with similar blue streaks.

 

How do you wear your hair, if applicable? Do you have facial hair?

It generally stands up on its own in what I'm told is about halfway between a ‘bedhead’ and ‘going super saiyan’. I do brush it down on formal occasions that I care about, and it's getting long enough that it'll stop being quite so spiky. 

 

Do you consider yourself attractive? Do others?

I uh, yeah I guess I'm pretty. I doubt anyone around me thinks that though. I'm an alien, it's not allowed.

 

Do you have any scars, tattoos, piercings, or birthmarks?

Ooh, you're right I should get a tattoo! And some piercings! Do my spots count as birthmarks?

 

Do you resemble anyone famous?

In my home galaxy I apparently looked a bit like a famous naval pilot. Don't look like anyone in Earth though.

 

Do you have a dominant hand?

I am right-handed.

 

What kind of clothing do you wear?

I like leather, and denim, and torn stuff. Spikes are cool too. And combat boots. Ooh, maybe I should wear more crop tops.

I do need to make sure that whatever I wear isn't too hot, like physically too hot. I'll overheat.

 

Do you wear makeup?

Yes. Sometimes. When I feel like it. Who's asking?

 

What is your vocal range? Is your voice distinctive in some way?

My voice is about average pitch, maybe a bit higher?

 

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? 

My tail and ears move in response to my emotions. It can be a little annoying if I'm trying to do anything with my tail. No one's commented on it though. 


 

History

 

Where do you come from?

The planet Zirtimzar in a distant galaxy!

 

Have you made any major moves, or do you live in your hometown?

I have traveled the great void between galaxies to grace humanity with my presence, hahaha!

 

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 am a rebel against the status quo! I would never profess loyalty to The Man!

 

How do you feel about the place you come from?

It was home y'know, kept my stuff there. I uh, miss my family though. 

 

Where is your home town? What was/is it like?

I am from Terezan, largest city in the southern hemisphere of Zirtimzar. Makes the biggest cities here look small. 

 

Growing up, were most of the people you knew similar to you or were you somehow a minority? How did that affect you? 

Zirtimzara are the majority on Zirtimzar, it's our home planet and most of us don't leave. The galactic government has pretty strenuous Immigration laws since the infrastructure for multispecies habitation is expensive. Meant my life was pretty normal. 

 

Is there something you've always been really good at or really bad at? How has that affected your life? 

I have always excelled academically, left my peers behind quickly in the Sciences and Mathematics. Really good with tech too. Lots of expectations, ‘making sure Vueriz is fulfilling her potential’, ‘see great things in her future’ ‘a credit to her people’ that sort of thing. And if course without my tech I wouldn't be here, I'd be uh. Yeah. 

 

Were there any traumatic experiences in your early years (death of a family member, abandonment, orphaned at an early age)?

Oh yes, terrible! Why before I was even a year old a terrible accident sent me to another galaxy filled with bizarre aliens with super powers! And that's not even the worst part! Immediately upon meeting them I bore witness to a horror never meant for mortal minds! Oh it almost hurts too much to say! But I must!

Horror of horrors, but I found that in this cruel new galaxy, I was short!

That pretty much sums it up. 
 

Briefly describe a defining moment in your childhood and how it influenced your life.

It was when I was about a tenth of a year old, so… nine point four Earth years? I snuck aboard a scientific vessel that was bound for a nearby star, about fifty parsecs away from Zirtimzar. I later found out that the ship was contracted to the navy, but that's not important right now. I was curious about what they were doing. I had hacked the computer systems to identify me as one of the researchers, so I was going over the data involved. The Star was about to die, go supernova. It was pretty young and light, so it must've been unstable or something.

I, of course, wanted to see it, so I went to the observation deck when it was just about to start, and it was beautiful. The wave of particles straining against the ships shielding, the light across all spectrums as whole new elements were forged. It was what inspired my gadgets, and really solidified my scientific interests. It isn't exaggeration to say that my life was never the same again.

 

What stupid things did you do when you were younger?

Well, immediately after the star's detonation, one of the scientists who was working on the ship who was using the observation deck at the time called security on me, being a random child on his ship. I should have gotten in a lot of trouble for that. As much as I don't regret it, that whole trip was pretty dumb. Could have gotten in trouble to just go study a rock in deep space.

 

Where did you go to school? How much schooling did you have, and did you enjoy it?

Well, I'm going to Claremont now, but back in my home galaxy I was mostly the victim of one on one tutoring. Pretty early on in more general schooling the teacher AI flagged me as rapidly surpassing my peers, and found that moving me on to more advanced classes wasn't really slowing that. So some big shot in the education branch decided that “A talent like mine was wasted in the general class system” and switched me to a private tutoring AI.

 

Do you have any mementoes from your childhood? What are they, and why did you keep them? If you have none, why not?

I have my skyboard, which I've had for about… four Earth years? Upgraded pretty thoroughly by yours truly of course. Most of my other stuff will probably still be on Zirtimzar. 

 

When did you decide to become a hero? Why? Did anyone influence you one way or another in the decision?

Being a cool rebel hero is my calling! I've wanted to be one since I was maybe… eight Earth years old. It was my decision and besides, it's really cool!

 

Is the reason you give people for becoming a hero different than your real reason? If so, why?

Not really. Like, I also like helping people and stuff, but that's kinda lame to talk about.

 

Do you have any deep, dark secrets in the past that may come back to haunt you?

I have a pretty extensive criminal record in my home galaxy, coz I'm a punk hero you know? Kinda doubt it'll come back to haunt me though, long way from home and all that.

 

Do you represent yourself as being different from who you really are? Why?

Nah, this is who I am! Authentic me.

 

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? 

It's not really a secret, I just… haven't mentioned it, right? The others don't really need to know about that and so I'm not gonna tell em.


 

Do you have any sort of criminal record? If so, is it public knowledge?

Oh, I think I already answered this one. Ugh on Earth some of the cops have mentioned that I'm disturbing the peace and called me a delinquent, but nothings come of it yet.

 

 

Family

 

What are your biological parents' names? 

My mum's name is Vysalla, never knew my dad, and mum never told me his name.

 

Were you raised by them? If not, please explain and describe who raised you.

My mum raised me. My older brother helped, not that I'd admit it to his face.

 

What was their standing in the community? What did/do they do for a living?

My mother had a job as a scientist in a propulsion lab. Her work was important enough for her to be well paid and respected, but not enough for her to be like, famous or anything. My brother was always a bit of a golden child, the square. He was looking at joining up with an Expeditionary Fleet going to explore a nearby galaxy. Probably halfway there by now.

 

Where are your parents now?

My mum is probably still on Zirtimzar.

 

Did your family stay in one area or move around a lot?

We stayed in the same city for my whole life, although we moved to a bigger apartment once. My mum would go on trips for work, and took me on a couple. 

 

How did you get along with your parents? How do you get along with them now (if applicable).

My mum wanted me to be a scientist like her, be a big shot, probably end up in an important government position. I didn't want that, caused a lot of friction. I… I know she wanted the best for me, but that didn't line up with what I wanted. I miss her but obviously I can't exactly send her a message or anything.

 

How do your parents view you now, or how would they? 

She'd definitely get a kick out of me going to a school for super cops. Probably be horrified if I told her about some of the things that’ve happened. Ask if there's a future for a career in ‘superheroing’. That sort of thing. 

 

Do you have any siblings? If so how many and what are their names? Describe your relationship with them.

My brother Zurangar, he's a bit of a stick in the mud. Doesn't like me being cool, gets worried and stays up if I'm out late. That sort of thing. 

 

What was your birth order in the family?

Zurangar is older by about seven Earth years. 

 

Where are your siblings now (if applicable)? Do they have families of their own? What do they do?

He was looking at joining an exploratory fleet to a galaxy in our local cluster, Lenzovargan. Wanted to ‘contribute to our society on my terms’. ‘s kinda cool, living on the frontier, exploring alien worlds and such. Guess we're kinda doing similar things, but mine’s cooler, superheroes and doing it all on my own and all.

 

Do you stay in touch with them or have you become estranged?

It's kinda hard to keep in contact when I don't even know where my home galaxy is, let alone the location of his fleet in Lenzovargan.

 

Do you love or hate one member of the family in particular?

They were both good at getting on my nerves and cramping my style… I do miss them though.

 

Is any member of the family special to you in any way (perhaps, as a confidant, mentor, or arch-rival)?

Not really, we'd all butt heads pretty often but I wouldn't call them my rivals.

 

Are there any black (or white) sheep in the family (including you)? If so, please explain.

Well that would be me! One doesn't get to be a cool rebel without stepping on some toes.

 

Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? If so, please explain, including how it has affected your life.

My great grandfather (on my mother's side of course) was Zirtimzar’s representative to the presiding council. Just added to all the stupid expectations. 

 

Do you have a partner and children currently? If so, please describe them.

Nope and nope.

 

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, but it doesn't matter. I'm stranded away from the rest of my species and probably will be for the rest of my life. 

 

What type of person would be your ideal mate?

Strong, attractive, not afraid to stick it to The Man, smart enough that I don't talk circles around them. 

 

 

Relationships

 

Do you have any close friends? If so, please describe them, and how you came to be close to them.

I get along pretty well with my classmates I think. Michael's a goody two shoes but is just too nice to dislike. Lawrence is pretty cool and time powers are fun. Parker is nice, really freaking strong. Baz's really funny, and his powers are so pretty. I really like the way he glows. I like Mizuki and Bernie too, they're fun to hang out with. 

 

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 think so? I'm not one to pick favorites.

 

If you were to go missing, who would worry about you?

My classmates definitely. Psuedo would probably be worried, given he's my legal guardian, and the government would probably be concerned that someone had kidnapped me to build stuff for them.

 

Have you lost any loves? If so, how did it happen, and what did you do?

Nah. No lost loves on Zirtimzar or anything. 

 

Do you have any bitter enemies? If so, please describe them and their history with you.

Only the tyranny of the Government! They have tried to silence me and I have escaped their grasp many a time!

 

If you have enemies, how do you think they might attempt to work against you in the future?

Well, the Presiding Council in my home galaxy can't really do anything, being, y'know, however far away. Earth’s police can try to arrest me I suppose, but I shall never submit to reeducation!

 

What is the worst thing someone has done to you?

Well, tried to catch me for reeducation.

 

Where do your loyalties lie? In what order?

My friends. The people. In that order. 

 

Who or what do you trust the most? Why?

My friends. They are good people who I've fought beside to save others and each other. 

 

Who or what do you despise? Why?

I don't really despise any individuals, other than that guy that tried to kidnap Lawrence. That guy sucked.

 

What qualities do you admire most in other people? Are these qualities you possess?

Obviously powers are really cool, but probably the most impressive thing about my friends is how they never seem to hesitate. As soon ans danger rears its head they're ready. I wish I could do that. I'm always terrified.

 

What qualities do you hate most in other people? Do you have any of those qualities?

Being willing to stamp others down for your own gain. I'm glad I'm not like that. 

 

Do you have a secret identity? If so, who knows it? Do you hide it from people who are close to you? Why? 

Eh, kinda hard to maintain a secret identity when you're the only alien in the crowd.

 

Do you work well on teams and in groups? Are you a leader or a follower?

I do pretty well at the team stuff. Michael's better at the whole ‘leader’ deal but I come up with good ideas!

 

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 am on a Claremont team, if that counts. No established team stuff outside of school though.

 

Are you a member of any church, fraternal organization, club, committee, political party, or other group? How much time do you spend on that?

Nah. Maybe I should join a club.


 

Personality & Beliefs

 

Who are your heroes?

Psuedo is really cool. Otherwise I'd have to say my classmates. Don't tell then I said that.

 

Did you ever become disillusioned with former heroes or idols? If so, why and what were the circumstances?

No fallen heroes or idols here. 

 

Do you like being a hero? If so, what is the most rewarding part? If not, what makes you keep doing it?

Yeah, it's awesome. Go out, fight the bad guys, look cool doing it. What's not to like?

 

Is there anything that would make you give up hero work, or even switch sides?

Obviously as a rebel against the system I ride the edge between what The Man would call a hero and a villain. If I was declared a villain or whatever I wouldn't stop helping people, but I'm not just gonna give up and stop being me.

 

What are your short term goals (what would you like to be doing within a year)?

Well, obviously continue at Claremont and helping my friends. Hopefully I'll be able to locate my home galaxy by then. I'd like to work more on my tech, and hopefully finalize my spaceship designs.

 

What are your long term goals (what would you like to be doing twenty years from now)?

Be a hero. Build my spaceship, be a big shot and all that.

 

What is your greatest fear? Why? What do you do when something triggers this fear?

… Reeducation and stuff like it. Like what the Communion did to the Star Khan. I can't stand the idea of someone tinkering with my mind. I uh. I ran when they were coming for me on Zirtimzar. With the Communion it- *expletive* I wanted to run so bad, but I just couldn't for some reason, I fought. Proud of that.

 

Is there anything you would give you life for? 

Obviously for freedom! It is better to die free than live in chains!

 

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?

Eh, money's nice, pays for my gadgets and stuff but it's just another tool of The Man to control people.

 

How do you generally treat others?

I treat people with the respect they deserve. How much they deserve depends on the person.

 

Are you a trusting person? Has your trust ever been abused?

Unless I have a reason not to trust someone or what they're saying contradicts what I know of the world I'd say I'm generally trusting. Not like, ‘hop in a random guy's car’ trusting, but like, I'm not gonna assume the worst. 

 

Are you introverted (shy and withdrawn) or extroverted (outgoing)? Do you have a lot of self-confidence?

I'm an extrovert, generally pretty friendly and all. I've got the exact right amount of self-confidence. 

 

How do you act around attractive, available members of your preferred sex? 

Well on Zirtimzar I didn't have many peers my own age, but I'd probably be pretty nervous. 

 

What are your most annoying habits?

I like tinkering with things, and taking things apart to look at how they work.

 

Do you feel contempt for any general category of people? Who are they, and why?

I think we've covered my opinions of the police and government pretty thoroughly.

 

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?

I really like burgers. Especially the really greasy meaty ones. I have to eat pretty quickly, since I need to take off my mask for every bite, but given the interruptions to breathe I think it averages out.

 

What is your favorite drink (alcoholic or otherwise)?

I haven't tried alcohol yet, since I'm not 100% certain how it'll interact with my system. I like soft drinks.

 

What is your favorite treat (dessert)?

I like liquorice, the really chewy ones.

 

Are there any specific foodstuffs that you find disgusting or refuse to eat?

Celery. If I wanted to consume a mix of dihydrogen monoxide and hair I'd just try chewing on one of my classmates during Mizuki's swimming lessons.

 

What is your favorite color? Are there any colors you dislike?

I like wisteria. It's pretty. 

 

What sort of music do you like? Is there any that you hate?

I like punk rock and metal and electronic stuff with a heavy bass. If it's got heavy beats and shouting it's right up my alley. Not a fan of the rap with the mumbling. Drives my Universal Translator crazy in a bad way. 

 

If you have a favorite scent, what is it?

The smell right after a particle beam passes through the air. Don't quite know what that would smell like on Earth, not being able to breathe the air and all. 

 

Do you have a favorite animal?

I get a feeling like Neko and Carmen will hunt me down if I don't say ‘cat’. I'm developing a soft spot for roaches though.

 

What is your most treasured possession? Why?

I have a new invention I'm really proud of. I had to cannibalize what's left of the Meson Driver for it, and it's inspired by one of my friends.

 

Do you enjoy "roughing it", or do you prefer your creature comforts?

I am a creature of comforts, although I've been getting used to the heat of Earth.

 

Is there a job or a task you would absolutely refuse to do?

I will not pull over when requested. Or turn down ‘that damn noise’.

 

Do you consider yourself a spiritual person? If so, how do your beliefs affect your life? How important is it to you?

Everyone knows gods and spirits don't exist.

 

Was your faith influenced or molded by anyone special?

It's just common knowledge. Magic and mystical creatures you hear about in stories are just that: Stories.

 

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 worship any gods. 

 

Could you kill? Have you killed?

Uh. What? No, of course  haven't killed anyone! And no I couldn't.

 

What circumstances led to you forming that conviction, or taking that action?

Killing people is wrong, it's not exactly hard to understand and it doesn't really go any deeper than that.

 

Are there circumstances under which you believe it is permissible to kill? What are they?

No. 

 

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- uh, I'd try to stop them. If it was one of my friends I'd try to talk them down?

 

How would you react if something important was stolen from you?

I would probably ask my friends for help getting it back, especially if it was a piece of tech. 

 

How would you react to public humiliation?

Egh, I would be mad. Probably try get them back, wouldn't really admit it though.

 

How would you react if a good friend or relative were purposely or accidentally killed? Has it happened to you?

Oh expletive, I'd try to put things right? If there was anyone at fault for the accident I'd make sure things were safer in the future and the person responsible is punished? On purpose would be pretty much the same, but I'd be a bit less gentle. I'd be pretty scared, since I don't have powers like my friends so whoever did it has to be able to take down like, an actual superhero.

 

What do you consider to be the worst crime someone could commit and why?

Reeducation. Or murder. Essentially anything that makes a person… not that person anymore.

 

If your life were to end in 24 hours, what five things would you do in those remaining hours?

Uh, five things? Okay, I'd make sure to let everyone know… then probably party the rest of my time? Try alcohol since worrying about how it'd affect my body is moot there, give my gadgets to my friends, play lots of loud music, probably wrap up my time doing something really cool?


 

Career & Training
 

Do you have any special training in your hero skills? If so, where and how did you get it?

Special training, no. Applicable skills, yes. I'm a really good pilot, and obviously a tech genius inventor. My pilot practice was a mixture of controlling my skyboard and simulator training and some… Minor theft of air and spacecraft. Tech stuff was base education plus general curiosity. Taking things apart and stuff.

 

Who taught you the most about your heroing abilities? What was your relationship with that person?

I'm mostly self taught, although the book learning side was of course schooling and then my tutor.

 

Do you have any particularly unusual skills? How did you acquire them?

I can play drums, and have some practice getting out of bindings, one is just an interest which I've casually pursued. The other was born out of an idea that I could escape cuffs and such. 

 

Do you do something besides hero work for a living? Have you ever done anything else, or do you plan to?

I go to school. I'm the future I'm planning on using my tech to make a living on the side. I can't really seperate my superhero and normal lives since I'm an alien.

 

What is your preferred combat style?

I zip around all cool like with my skyboard, zapping baddies with my guns and grenades haha!

 

Have you ever received any awards or honours?

My school and tutors liked to award excellent work. A bribe for being a ‘good student’. I got several for my academics.

 

What skill areas would you like most to improve in? Is there anything you can't do that you wish desperately you could?

I really wish I had powers like my friends. Without my gadgets it's like ‘Oh no, here comes Vueriz, careful she can punch you really gently’. Otherwise I'd just like to keep practicing what I enjoy and am good at. 

 

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 try getting them to show me their skills or work and see what I can figure out from there.


 

Lifestyle & Hobbies

 

What is a normal day for you? How do you feel when something interrupts this routine?

I generally wake up to my second alarm. Rush to get ready for class so that Michael doesn't lecture me about the importance of education again. Go to class, pretend to pay attention, hang out with my friends. After class I tend to work on my tech, hang out with my friends and sneak off campus to party or do hero stuff, no particular order there. Generally interruptions to my routine mean no class so that's great.

 

Do you have any hobbies, or interests outside hero work? What are they, and where did you pick them up?

I like working on my tech, listening to music, hanging out with people. Occasionally I'll do some drumming. That sort of thing. Didn't really ‘pick them up’, just do them. 

 

What do you do for fun?

I… just said? Why would I practice hobbies that I don't find fun?

 

Do you have a costume? What does it look like?

I wear a low cut pale wisteria shirt, purple jeans, a leather jacket, black gloves, boots and knee pads and my utility belt.

 

How do you normally dress when not in costume?

Punk! Torn clothes, denim and leather and stuff.

 

What do you wear to bed most nights?

Uh- well… I just wear a pair of underwear. If I wasn't dorming I probably wouldn't wear anything, it's hot on Earth.

 

Do you wear any special jewelry? What is it, and what does it look like?

I don’t have any jewelry. 

 

Do you have a special place where you keep your valuables?

In my dorm or on me.

 

What's your preferred means of local travel? How about long distance?

I like to fly around with my skyboard. Long distance it can get a little uncomfortable, but other than that it's just been Lawrence's portals.


 

Miscellaneous

 

Have you ever made a will, or tried to make arrangements for your death? What provisions did you make? 

I don't plan on dying any time soon. ‘Sides, I'd just give it all to my friends anyway. 

 

If your features were to be destroyed beyond recognition, is there any other way of identifying your body?

Ignoring dental records, skeletal differences and my stature? A simple chemical test would do it. 

 

What would you like to be remembered for after your death?

As a cool rebel hero who was never afraid to stand up to The Man!

 

Do you believe you pose a threat to the public? Why or why not?

Nah. I'm a hero, and wouldn't do anything to put the public at risk. 

 

What do you perceive as your greatest strength?

My genius that allows me to create wondrous inventions!

 

What do you perceive as your greatest weakness?

I can be a bit of a coward, and I don't actually have powers. 

 

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 are not a coward for running away from your home, you are brave for staying to protect your friends and strangers. You need to slow down and learn about the world you have come to, you'll be surprised at the things you have assumed that aren't true here. The world is full of dangers, but so too is it full of wonders.
