[color=gray]Name:
Eliza Marks 

Alias:
"Marks"

Sex:
Female

Age:
19

Experiment Tier:
Test Subject (hopefully)

Enhanced Trait 1:
Speed. Eliza’s tendons, ligaments and muscles were augmented to handle moving at an alarming rate. She can reach running speeds of up to 65 kilometres an hour (roughly 40mph) although this was her [i]fastest[/i] speed ever recorded and occurred during a life-or-death situation. It also left her nearly immobile with soreness for a week. She generally won’t exceed 55km/h, though she works herself hard in an effort condition and train herself to go even faster. 

Enhanced Trait 1 Downside:
This augmentation of speed required that her legs be amputated just above the knee. (During initial testing of her speed, it was discovered that while her muscles and tendons were fine, her flesh and bones were not strong enough for such speed and force. Her first test runs resulted in essentially grinding the bones in her feet, as well as her tibia and fibia, into sludge.) While her prosthetics are cool, they leave her unable to swim or climb ladders with any efficiency, as well as leaving her with phantom itches and pains that tend to drive her nuts. Another important downside to her prosthetics: They make her extremely easy to spot, to the point where any venture onto the surface is an extremely risky one. As they are one-of-a-kind and designed specifically for her abilities, every SWAT or Seeker out there knows that where they find the legs, they find the girl. 

Enhanced Trait 2:
Enhanced processing. In order to handle all that speed, Eliza’s brain needed to be able to process her sensory information fast enough to keep up. In this way, when she runs, she sees things as if she is moving normally and everything else is very slow. This helps her make quick decisions and dodge attacks that would otherwise be difficult to avoid. 

Enhanced Trait 2 Downside:
Over-stimulation. Eliza’s processing power comes with a downside: She can’t really turn it off. Sure, she isn’t always operating in bullet-time, but while she does see in normal time when she’s not worked up (the extra processing power is triggered by adrenaline) it can be disorienting. A lingering issue manifests itself in recurring migraines and difficulty focusing on one thing. She also has a terrible habit (one that she had never had in her life before testing) of losing track of time. She can also fly into a panic far easier, as her brain is accustomed to outputting far more adrenaline far more often than needed. 

Faction:
POLTAVA

Appearance:
(Pics work fine, but if you do use one put a small desc. in such as height, weight, any distinct features)

Clothing:
(Put 'See appear' or 'see pic' if it is the same as above)

Personality:

Weapons:
Mainly, her state-of-the-art aluminum running [url=http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2015/01/13/24AAA53200000578-2908263-image-a-40_1421156616793.jpg]
prosthetics[/url] (longer than pictured), complete with rubber pads on the bottoms for grip, wicked-sharp edges and blades running down their length, able to extend and retract seemingly at will. She also carries a narrow steel pipe, a folding knife and a length of thin, strong wire tied between two wooden dowels. While at normal speed, such a thing could be used to strangle someone, at high speeds it is effective enough to cut flesh and score bones. 

[hider=More on the Legs]
Eliza’s legs were designed by the testing facility specifically to fit her needs. They are extremely strong and resilient, yet flexible enough to give a significant bounce (similar to walking on a trampoline) which helps to increase her speed and jump height/distance. While her original height was 5’6, the legs bring her up to 5’10, giving her legs an oddly-proportioned look with high knees. The legs were amputated above the knee because researchers found that the lowest amputation point that would still support her speed was her femur.[/hider]
