Her mind is very analytical, and she is said to see everything as some sort of piece to a formula, making it relatively simple for her to come up with plans. Also somewhat skilled as a detective. She is knowledgeable in most mathematics and the sciences, including Biology, Physics, Advanced Chemistry, Geography, Technology, and Engineering. Currently studying Criminal Science, Forensic Sciences, Computer Sciences, and History/Mythology, her main focus is to up her hacking skills, which are lack luster at the moment. [*]Stealth:[/*] Having always been one who steps lightly, stealth was a skill Wisteria picked up from years of lurking around Gotham. After receiving proper training she is able to sneak into well-secured facilities with relative ease. Always seems to move without sound, even when not in a hostile environment, and because of this she has accidentally surprised many of her friends or teammates. [*]Peak Human Conditioning:[/*] - Peak Human Reflexes: Perceptive, Wisteria is always prepared for an attack from behind, though she isn't skilled enough to dodge bullets or other quick-moving projectiles. - Peak Human Agility: Trained in parkour and acrobatics, Wisteria is nimble and light on her feet and able to leap across rooftops with ease. - Peak Human Speed: Her most important and best skill, Wisteria is faster than most human athletes. Every single stride she takes is put to use, and it is especially notable in fights when she can dodge even the quickest punches easily. [*]Martial Arts:[/*] Trained in Jujitsu, Boxing, Dim Mak, Judo, Dragon Style Kung Fu, Iaido, Aikido, and Tae Kwon Do. She is a near master at master at Kung Fu, Iaido, and Jujitsu. Relies mostly on her speed and her own ability to take another's weight and turn it against them in a fight. Her main weapon, the Jōhyō, is often implemented in most of her fights, mostly acting as a tool to reach enemies from a longer distance. [*]Gadgets:[/*] - [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jFQERRaUsg#t=40]Jōhyō[/url] - Throwing Knives (fashioned to look like feathers) - Explosive Throwing Knives - Smoke Pellets - Gas Pellets - Stun Pellets - Grappling Hook - Flash Light(s) - Mini Explosives - Lock Pick Kit - Stunning Toxins (liquid) - Hardware Tools - Small Snacks Works in Progress: - Crafting her own grenades similar to the Canary Cry Bombs used by Black Canary when she was once powerless. - A tracker to keep a close eye on both allies and foes if needed. - Looking into a way to electrify her weapons. [u][b]Weaknesses:[/b][/u] - Having no powers at all, Wisteria is prone to injuries, some more fatal than others, and is weak to all things that can harm a human. - Relies more on her speed, making her weaker than most superheros. Currently attempting to train both her strength and endurance. - Lacks proper defense; her only shield is the mass of feathers on her costume. - Bad endurance; must eat and rest constantly to stay up and about. [u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] [url=http://38.media.tumblr.com/496d81522d47d6959aea7592058feb8b/tumblr_n32zhudEJr1rl6b81o1_1280.png]Costume[/url] Wisteria is a girl of average beauty, average height, and average appearance. She stands at about 5'6, weighing a somewhat underweight 120lbs, and has an over all athletic build. Her hair is somewhat long, reaching down passed her shoulders, and is blonde in color and rather easy to manage. She has an angular face, with fair skin, lush lips, a sharp nose, and large, gray/blue eyes. Despite being a full grown woman, she does not have much to offer in the curves department, and could easily pass as a male if she were to just put her hair up and block out her face. Doesn't care much for makeup or dressing up, and can be found wandering around in sweats and tank tops when not on a mission. She has a strange interest in a particularly puffy-sleeved crop-top sweat jacket. Her costume consists of flexible material, with her only defense being the feathers on her back which can withstand most weapons, that is patterned and colored to resemble a tawny owl. She wears a cowl to hide her identity which also doubles as night vision goggles and a gas mask, and her gloves are equipped with retractable claws that are used for clinging to walls and scratching if necessary. She can’t fly, but the feathers on her back double as a glider for a just-in-case situation. Her utility belt is normally covered with knife slots and pouches, most filled with items like smoke pellets and anything else required for missions. [u][b]BRIEF Bio:[/b][/u] Born in New York and raised in Gotham, Wisteria grew up knowing that the world is full of dangers. Her mother, a supposedly widowed business woman, often warned her to stay away from most people, telling her stories of all the crime that run a muck in the darkness of the deadly streets, and Wisteria took all the stories and advice to heart. She grew up to be somewhat reserved and cynical, and if not for the sudden disappearance of her mother on her tenth birthday she might have remained that way for the rest of her life. Case after case looked for Ms. Adams, but every time they ended without even a single clue. Days, weeks, months went by, and every single time someone grew just a step closer to finding the woman, it all ended suddenly for an untold reason. Wisteria, finally fed up, began looking into the case herself. Lurking around Gotham gave her a few leads on various criminals, but nothing about her mother. Trying to force information out of the tougher crowd would have been impossible for the now eleven year old, so she turned to training. Both her mind and her body were pushed to the limit, so much so that when she attempted to chase down a suspicious fella who was reportedly involved in many missing peoples cases Wisteria collapsed from sheer exhaustion. Three years of training left her body at near-death, bruised and battered,, and if not for a visiting Black Canary she wouldn't have made it through the night. After resting and discussing her need to grow stronger the Canary took Wisteria under her wing. They traveled back to the Canary's home and began a healthier, yet tougher training regiment, and after a few years of intense physical and mental training Owlet was born. [u][b]Notes:[/b][/u] - Black Canary saw a weak, genius girl that night. Someone who could becomes stronger and smarter, just with the right help. So, naturally, she decided to mentor the girl. - Wrote Wisteria to this song, so I guess this could be considered her [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9mQTmXxU8E]theme.[/url] - Hates her name, and hates any nicknames that can be derived from her name. - Her mother is still missing, and she is still somewhat interested in her case. - Her odd fascination with owls was born from watching one stalk and kill pray one dreary night camping.
