Declaring my interest. [hider=Work in WIP] [b]Name:[/b] [i]Cassie Cooper[/i] [b]Alias:[/b] [i]The Mysterious Stranger[/i] [b]Alignment:[/b] [i]Neutral[/i] [b]Nickname(s):[/b] [i]Cass[/i] [b]Age:[/b] [i]28[/i] [b]Gender:[/b] [i]Female[/i] [b]Powers:[/b] [i]None she knows.[/i] [b]Skills/Abilities:[/b] [i]Cassie has extremely accurate senses. She can hear, smell, taste, touch and feel more than an any human, she can detect specific smells thus being able to locate their origin. Cass' ability to remember smells enables her to identify any person she has spent at least five minutes with by smell alone, no matter how he or she might try to camouflage his or her natural odor. Her sense of hearing enables her to hear a person's heartbeat at a distance of over twenty feet, or people whispering on the other side of a standard wall. She can control her hearing acuity, mentally blocking out specific sounds like her own breathing and heartbeat, all ambient sounds to a normal human level of perception, or all sounds but a particular sound she is concentrating upon. By listening, feeling and/or smelling, Cassie can tell whether a person is lying by sweat, changes in body temperature and heartbeats. In any event, with this "ability", Cassie synthesizes a very close analogue of three-dimensional 360% human sigh. Cassie has no obvious "superpowers". She merely has her strong will, peak-human physical strength, and finely-honed sense of timing and precision. She possesses genius intelligence and has an extremely unpredictable way of thinking. She can make a weapon out of common objects and often uses her mind to win fights. Cassie was trained to become a gifted athlete, being able to jump roof top to roof top, scale tall buildings and land on her feet without ever making a sound. Cass is well versed in street combat, gymnastics, boxing and even Kung-Fu. She is also extremely stoic, having indifference to pain and discomfort. She is also extremely intelligent showing a marked affinity for detective work (including intimidation). She is also skilled at lock picking.[/i] [b]Equipment:[/b] [i]Cass currently wields two expandable batons, a multi-purpose cane that has many different modes. Its initial form is two short sticks held together by an extendable cable. It can be configured into a nunchaku-like weapon to a manrikigusari (a long rope/chain weapon with two weights on its ends), dual short batons which can be wielded in a pair, bo-staff, or even a cable with a grappling hook. The weapon can also be adjusted to combine both batons into a bo-staff. The weapon is held by a holster on the side of Mysterious Stranger's left leg.[/i] [b]Appearance:[/b] [i]Cassie stands 5'6" tall, with fair complexion and an square face. Due to blindness, her eyes are milk-white. She has a perky nose with a relatively broad tip and bridge. Cassie's mouth fits perfectly on her face size, not being small or large. Her lips are slightly fleshy and the upper lip has a pointed appearance. She has a cleft chin. Cassie is athletic, weighing 123 lbs. She has scars scattered throughout her body. She has shoulder-leght blonde hair.[/i] [b]Costume:[/b] [i]In Mysterious Stranger's patrols, she wears a striped purple business suit, similarly colored leather gloves, a grayed scarf, and heavily unpolished elevator shoes. On top of that, she wears a brown trench coat with a matching fedora hat that has a light purple stripe. However, Mysterious Stranger's most defining feature of her costume is her color-changing blindfold/mask (the colors continually shift in response to heat and pressure), covering all her head.[/i] [b]Personality:[/b] [i]Cassie is focused, strong-willed, cautious and above all a discreet person. She's a woman of no emotions when she is needed—most of this thanks to her training. The years of hard training made her a person of few words as hers combat skills were honed in what is today and she was forced to set her charisma aside. Her shallow personality is accompanied by egoistical thoughts of her choices. She can be cynical, paranoid, rude and even stubborn. She's a vigilante, she doesn't follow rules.[/i] [b]History:[/b] [i][/i] [/hider]
