[center][b]WRITTEN DESCRIPTION[/b][/center][center]Green eyes, brown hair with red streaks, and a lip piercing. Denise is 5'5 and roughly 120 lbs, and she has a tattoo of an owl on her left shoulder blade.[/center]
[center][b]PERSONALITY[/b][/center][center]Not too quiet, not too loud. Denise is the type of person who's socially well-rounded, yet she enjoys people's reactions to the little bit of mystery she exudes whenever she offers little to no words. Given her background, Denise is a rebel by heart. She doesn't tolerate crap from people and she'll be very vocal against them if she feels like going through such trouble. With that being said, Denise has a soft spot for animals and children, as well as for those less fortunate than her.[/center]
[center][b]BACKSTORY[/b][/center][center]Born and raised in Independence City to parents working in the medical field, Denise was a rather privileged child. She only ever attended private schools, which her parents could easily afford. Her mother, a nurse, and her father, a psychiatrist, were more often than not at work, leaving Denise with a nanny who let her get away with just about everything.   

It was during her teenage years that Denise started getting mixed up with the wrong crowd. Her friends, all private school students, bored her to death and so she decided to venture outside of her social circle. She was 15 when she met her first and only boyfriend, Max. Max introduced Denise to his world, one filled with crime, drugs, and hate. It was a bit overwhelming at first, but Denise had strong feelings for Max and so she slowly adjusted to his own reality.

About a year after they met, Max got involved with an even worse crowd, the type to make someone disappear if they so much as take a paperclip without asking. This new professional relationship put a strain on the young couple, and despite the fact that Denise considered leaving Max once or twice before, she continued being by his side. It was only a matter of time before she slowly joined him on a few of his missions, and after that point, there was no turning back.

As time went on, Max was more concerned with his growing responsibilities than with Denise. She noticed right away, and urged him to drop everything: the money, the jobs, the contacts...but Max didn't listen. In fact, he warned her against leaving him. That's when Denise realized she had to get away from his world, for good. It was that, or one of them would end up hurt, or even worse, killed. 

Not much time had passed before Denise gained her own set of abilities like a select few others. She holed up in her apartment for the first few days, and due to the mass chaos and confusion throughout the city, no one went bothered to contact her or even look for her. She assumed she was done with that chapter of her life, but as she would soon realize, she couldn't have been further from the truth.[/center]

[center][b]SUPERPOWERS[/b][/center][center]Denise has the ability to clone herself. She can produce up to five identical copies who all think and behave just like she does. If one of the clones is killed, then they immediately cease to exist. If Denise is injured, her clones will instinctively do everything within their power to help her. In the event that Denise becomes unconscious, her clones will disappear.[/center]
[center][b]SKILLS[/b][/center][center]A quick thinker, and a bit of a puzzle enthusiast. Denise is also somewhat of an athlete, and she's taken enough self-defense courses to be able to hold her own[/center]
