Po is distinctly Latina with her mocha skin, dark hair and chocolate colored eyes. Not overly tall she is fit and athletic after years of martial arts training. To strangers she appears the typical beautiful Latina with her darker complexion and exotic charms. No one would say that if they saw her other half rear its ugly head. Due to a tragic portion of her early childhood Tiponi has been merged with a wraith entity with which she must forever live in a sort of a reluctant symbiotic relationship.

[b]Personality:[/b] Po is a complex person. She’s lived through horrors no human should be made to endure. A child even less so. But to be made to inflict such horrors is even more damaging to a young mind. Tiponi was raised by deranged cultists who manipulated and brainwashed her during her formative years. The fact that she isn’t a complete basket case or a serial killer is largely due to her adoptive mother and rescuer from said cult.

She is a well-adjusted individual as much as that could be said of someone with her background. Years of therapy and deprogramming have helped her to find a sort of piece with what’s been done to her.  Still, her early life ordeal has left its mark on her. She is slow to trust and will evaluate each new connection with unrelenting care. However, because of that, whenever she does accept someone within her inner circle, she is loyal to that person to death. She is a cautious person by way of what she’s been through.

She has a soft spot for victims of violence and especially those of manipulation and psychological abuse. After being rescued from the cult by her adoptive mother and discovering the glorious gift of nurturing someone back to health and sanity through love and devotion, she is dead set on propagating that gift and tries to always be kind and gentle to people, especially children. She gives love where love is needed, but she is no flower child. She knows the face of ugliness and insanity and is prepared to fight it to her last breath.

Po has a unique relationship with her other half, the Wraith. The entity to which she was bonded by mistake when she was but five years old. The Wraith is a ravenous incorporeal creature that hungers constantly for Life Force energy. Its hunger knows no bounds and is insatiable. It is neither good nor evil. It is simply hungry. Ravenous! After being forcefully pulled out of its shadowy realm and bonded to little Po its existence had to change. It knows it and Tiponi are merged for life and so it offers its services and abilities to her in exchange for sustenance.

If they don’t feed on regular basis it can reduce Po to manic behaviors and crazed outbursts. It cannot take over completely, but it can make her existence a living hell. It is a constant voice in her head, urging her to make choices based solely on their hunger level. Which is ever and always present.

[b]Background:[/b]
When Tiponi was five years old she was kidnapped by the members of a cult worshipping a formless malignant deity known as the Disintegrator. Apparently the cultists got it into their heads that they would bring their incorporeal beloved dark god into flesh. After an extensive search for the perfect vessel, little Tiponi Camacho was forcefully taken from her parents, who were brutally murdered trying to protect their child from being abducted.

The ritual was prepared and executed to, in the cultists’ mind, perfection. Alas, their stupidity obviously knew no bounds. As instead of their God incarnate in flesh, they managed somehow to bond an unknown wraith entity to little Tiponi. Some members of the cult dared to suggest it was punishment from Disintegrator for deigning to force it into a meat sack when it was perfectly monstrous in its aura form. Those cultists were never heard of again.

Mistake or punishment, the cultists had to make the best of the botched ritual. They’d kidnapped the little brat and the wraith entity stuck within her body and soul wasn’t completely useless. The cultists quickly came to realize its power and abilities. Now all that remained was to indoctrinate the child into the faith. A task made easy by her tender age. Between the non-physical torture and the daily programing sessions little Tiponi quickly forgot her parents and her life before the cult. She became its most prized instrument. She became the Conduit of the Will of the Disintegrator. She would be called upon during various rituals. Indoctrination ceremonies, sacrificial ceremonies, deranged sexual rites.

By the time she was fifteen this twisted world of depravity and evil worship she lived in had become the norm for her. She was the Conduit of the Will of the Disintegrator. It was her job to punish the heathens and the week by sucking their Life Force. It was her duty to instill fear in the hearts of the hesitant. And by the Will of the Disintegrator she was spared the pain of physical harm and aging and was granted the knowledge of all she consumed.

And yet somewhere, buried deep, deep within her, was the doubt that all of this was not normal. Not right! It was wrong and disgusting, deranged and deprived. And she was made to be a part of it almost willingly. She remembered knowing what it meant to be a good girl, but her cultist family taught her that she’d been lied to. And so they taught her anew. But it felt wrong. And so she suffered. Every time she was made to suck the Life Force out of someone. Every time she had to induce mind numbing fear into the doubtful. Every time she attended the sex rites.

Her suffering only served to make her Wraith even more ravenous with hunger. And so she fed, while suffering. It was a vicious cycle the little girl could not possibly know how to escape. As it turned out, she didn’t have to. Apparently the cult had been under the watchful eye of the FBI and as soon as they’d been able to tie the cult and its members to the atrocities it had performed in the name of their dark god, the Bureau had acted with swiftness and decisiveness.

Tiponi would have been prosecuted and made to suffer the same fate as the rest of the cultist had the lead investigator not seen through the years of torture and brainwashing she’d endured. Special Agent Melissa Camacho recognized the signs however. She also possessed the ability to see ghostly beings and recognized the Wraith bonded to little Tiponi. She pleaded with her superiors to show leniency towards the girl as she was as much a victim of the cult as any other. It also helped when it was discovered that she matched the description of a little girl from a cold missing person’s case.

So began Po’s new life with Melissa. It was not easy at first. It took almost two years to reliably brake the cult’s brain washing and effectively deprogram Tiponi. It took even more for her to be able to live with what she’d become and what she’d done for the ten years she was with the cult. Melissa enrolled her in Aikido and Hapkido training to teach discipline and also introduce the girl to a philosophy that promoted the resolution of conflict without the intent of harm. She also allowed the girl to help her with her work. The damage of introducing her fragile mind to the horrors of the world had already been done. By allowing Po to help with bringing deranged people to justice, she hoped to promote some form of soul healing within the girl.

She also was the main reason for Po to come to grips with her other half. The Wraith. She thought Tiponi how to temper its urges. How to keep the hunger at bay without harming innocence. Little by little the traumatized child Melissa’d rescued grew into a stable, respectable young woman who valued human life and abhorred violence. Her adoptive mother offered Po the chance to join the FBI, but she refused, stating that when it came to the really deviant and malignant powers that plagued their realm, the Bureau had its hands tied behind its back.

And so Tiponi Camacho went her own way to become an independent paranormal investigator. She is especially interested in missing person’s cases under suspicious or unusual circumstances as she strives to prevent what happened to her, happen to anyone else.

She has also come to terms with the fact that the perps she hunts down rarely get the chance of any form of trial. For the Wraith is ever hungry!

[b]Special Traits:[/b]

[i]Life Force Absorption[/i] – The Wraith entity bonded to Tiponi needs Life Force to exist. If it does not feed it will begin draining its human host and both Po and it will cease to exist. As such both of them possess the drive to prevent that from happening. Tiponi feeds regularly on any and all lowlifes she can find, and occasionally gorges on the Life Force of the most depraved and deranged. She can control the feeding process and leave her victim alive. But she is perfectly capable of draining her target of its last Life Force, killing them in the process. She does need to be in close proximity to her victims, but actual physical contact is not required.

[i]Consumption Psychometry[/i] – Whenever Tiponi feeds off of someone’s energy she instantly becomes familiar with who this person is and their entire history and memories. However, as her brain cannot retain the information for long periods of time all she learns after a feeding begins to fade away after about two days, to disappear completely within five.

[i]Decelerated Aging[/i] – As the Wraith within her is an eternal entity that subsides off of pure energy, it grants its host the gift of decelerated aging and cell degradation. Thus Tiponi may very well live past the average human lifespan.

[i]Fear Inducement[/i] – Whenever Po allows the face of the Wraith to surface, its horrific countenance is able to induce mind numbing, paralyzing fear. People prone to hearth failure and strokes could die if she unleashes the Wraith’s countenance upon them.

[i]Healing Factor[/i] – The absorption of Life Force grants Tiponi a moderate healing factor. The closer she is to a feeding, to more and the faster she can heal. The effect fades if she hasn’t fed for a long while.[/hider]
