[hider=Marcia Oliviera][center][h2]Character Name: Maria Oliviera [/h2][/center]

[center][h1]Basic Traits[/h1][/center]
 
[center]Quote: Oh, sorry... I don't mean to scare you... Or do I?[/center]
 
[center]Height: From top-to-tail, close to nine foot. Normally stands at around 6.[/center]
 
[center]Age: 18[/center]

[center]Appearance: From just below her waist-up, she looks like a normal person. She has dark black hair that reaches down to below the small of her back, a pair of dark green eyes, and tanned, latin skin. She would almost be considered a bombshell, if not for the fact that below her waist is a snake's tail- the colouration like that of a python or pit viper. When she opens her mouth, twin fangs are clearly visible, and they sometimes peek out over her bottom lip. Because of her unique anatomy, she wears no trousers,
skirts, or really anything else, instead having custom-made decency coverings, and then wearing clothes for her top half as normal.[/center]

[center]Ethnicity: Brazilian[/center]
 
 

[center][h1]Background[/h1][/center]

[center]History: She was only nine before the rift opened, so she doesn't really remember that much. Her family lived in the Favelas of Rio De Janeiro, and she was no stranger to violence, even at a young age, but she never really considered that there might be outs. At least, not until...[/center]
 
[center]Rift History:The rift opened almost directly above her house. At first, nothing happened, and everything went on as normal.
It was only when she went to a doctor thanks to a burning sensation in her leg, just as the first of the Brazilian mutations were being discovered, that she began to be concerned. As there was no way to judge what she would become, she was kept at the doctors for quite some time, until the transformation had completed. 

She was initially taken to a government institution, where she learned of her second set of abilities, including lethal venom. Not only was it a fast acting neurotic, but she could also 'milk' herself to spit the venom, and had additional sensory fields. She could now sense heat signatures, agitated electrons, could 'taste' smells like other snakes, and her skin had a crude form of camouflage, allowing it to blend in with her scales. After leaving almost the entire facility dead, she fled to England at the tender age of 12.[/center]
 
[center]War History: Although far too young to be a soldier, she found that her particular abilities made her extremley useful as a tracker and explosive detector. She worked closely with other brzilian troops as a scout and guide, and whilst she never killed another person,
 she has seen what war does.

After the conflict finished, she assist with the finding of people in the wreckage of England, before she was picked up by Manya when she was fourteen.[/center] 

[center]Alliance: Manya. Also the Wildlands, but mostly Manya.[/center]


[center][h1]Abilities[/h1][/center]
 
[center]Rift:Brazil[/center]
 
[center]Abilities: Serpentine
Now only has Marcia been granted the tail of a snake from just below her waist down, allowing her to move much faster over difficult terrain, and fit into locations that a human could never dream of, she has also 'inherited' many other abiltiies from venemous snakes.
 Her tongue is forked, and allows her to 'taste' smells, allowing for her to pinpoint where certain smells come from. Her canine teeth have also elongated and become more curved, becoming a pair of fangs that have the hypodermic structure that snake fangs have. She can use these fangs to inject a powerful neurotoxin, roughly as strong as that of a pit viper, into her victims, or 'milk' her own fangs in order to spit this venom. Lastly, her eyes have been permanently modified. Whilst they look normal, they actually allow her not only to see thermally,
 but also agitated electrons, essentially letting her see electronic devices that are on.[/center]
 
[center]Side effects: Cold blooded. Nothing more needs to be said.[/center]
 
 
 
[center][h1]Personality:[/h1][/center]
 
[center]Mission: To find out what happened to her parents. She may be callous thanks to the influence of her good Russian friend, but she still cares about them.[/center]
 
[center]Weaknesses: See 'fears'[/center]

[center]Strengths and Talents: Most of her natural talents were only enhanced by her rift powers.[/center]
 
[center]Fears:She is [i]paralysed[/i] by anything to do with traditional doctors. Don't even show her a needle.[/center][/hider]
