[b]Age:[/b] 19.

[b]Gender:[/b] Female.

[b]Personality:[/b] Years on the run have transformed Melissa - disfigured her. She has lost most of her social character, being now quite reserved: never the one to initiate conversation; and coming across as unapproachable besides. She is distrustful of others - and this manifests itself in her utmost efforts to maintain her own independence, abhorring the idea or holding a reliance on others. There's a natural connection between these traits and her characteristic cynicism, which dominates her outlook. 

[b]Appearance:[/b] Petite; Melissa is of a slight, unimposing build: short (5' 2") and possessing a meekness about her. In her face, she has soft, rounded features: plump lips, a wide nose; small brown eyes particular of her Asiatic heritage. Her hair is close-cropped and a dark brown: her highlights (from the image above) are worn out. 

[b]Biography:[/b]
[quote][color=yellow]"I'll be out in a minute, mom!"[/color] the girl screeched back in the direction of the door. The warm, refreshing water cascaded down her taut, naked form as she occupied her suburban home's single shower. Melissa watched as it hurried down her chest, and landed between her separated feet. It was a long, constant drip; a fascinatingly mundane occupation. Her gaze followed as it split to pass the shampoo container, before reconnecting and being sucked into the drain-pipe with a gurgle inaudible above the shower itself. It was whilst in her curious concentration that she was his with a sudden feeling of weightlessness, a utter darkness followed. Without explanation, without reason, her form turned to liquid, and she gushed after the soap-water.

She held the strangest feeling of awareness about her as she traversed the piping that existed beneath her neighbourhood. She couldn't see, couldn't hear, but she could feel. [color=yellow]'It's a dream,'[/color] she told herself: [color=yellow]'It has to be a dream.'[/color] But it felt real; so real. Panic overtook her as her rapid movement begun to slow, and then she was almost at a stop. Moments passed, mind racing. Her return to her original form was as sudden as rapid as before. The putrid stench of sewer hit her like a blow to the stomach - and she vomited like receiving an actual blow to the stomach. 

[color=yellow]"Help me!"[/color][/quote]It didn't get much better. Melissa survived, picked up by a pair of service workers: Famished, and covered in her own vomit. Her parents turned her in when she told. Their own daughter; Melissa never quite got over that. She escaped: of course, she wouldn't be here otherwise; at that stage she had some amount of control over her powers. Her wits got her through after: living on the streets, moving between cities before she could establish connections. It was a hard life.

[b]Power:[/b] Melissa can collapse her form into a collection of water (H20) molecules, the form being dependent on prevailing conditions. This has a number of uses. Prime amongst them is that it allows her to enter tights spaces that would otherwise have been unaccessible. She has some sense of self-propulsion in this form but for the most part she is left to the will of nature. 

[b]Strengths:[/b][list][*]Liquid-form allows her to hide from enemies - enter inaccessible areas - and survive all conventional damage. 
[*]Unaccredited smarts gathered from her past on the streets.[/list]
[b]Weaknesses:[/b][list][*]Liquid-form can be unpredictable and its potential dependent on conditions. 
[*]Liquid form can become frozen resulting in Melissa's paralysis.
[*]Distrustful of others/Poor team member. [/list][/hider]
