Antoinette has tightly coiled black hair that she often braids, twists, or brushes out, depending on the outfit. Her skin is brown, her eyes are dark, and her clothing style can usually be described as relaxed or trendy. She'll often accessorize with bracelets, rings, and necklaces, but none of them have any particular meaning. More often than not her nails are painted professionally with neon colors and designs. There are no serious scars or tattoos on her body, only a few remnants of childhood falls and Parkour jumps that were too short. [color=F053A3][b]Costume[/b][/color] [hider=Literal Motocross Gear][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/kKF9LKW.png[/img][/center][/hider] There is nothing special or unique about the Motocross gear. In fact, it's very brightly colored and quite conspicuous. She wears the full set of Motocross armor as well. In addition she wears a black backpack with a 4ft steel pipe attached to it by a couple of strands of cloth tied into knots. Her gear is affordable, durable, and protection enough from the usual low-power villain. [color=F053A3][b]Personality[/b][/color] Introverted and extroverted in equal parts. Quiet when she wants to be but loud once comfortable around people. There's an inward sense of loneliness and isolation that keeps Antoinette from interacting more or being "nice". What's the point of making friends when they'll forget you? That being said she's inwardly frustrated and often comes across as rude or curt. She won't hold back insults and is quick to argue when she thinks she's right. Antoinette is used to doing things her way and at her pace, so teamwork is quite difficult, especially when the team tends to forget she's around. If Antoinette can solve a problem in fewer steps, she most assuredly will, and doesn't care for collateral damage or the "aftermath" of certain decisions. A lot of her actions are taken with the thought in mind that no one will know she did them. Even if she seems perpetually disgruntled, it's simply because she is passionate about nearly everything, and her arguing is because she cares. Despite her aggressive nature, Antoinette is something of an optimist. She will always expect the best of a situation, even though she's experienced catastrophic disappointment in the past. This furious optimism is probably out of spite, at this point. [color=F053A3][b]Backstory[/b][/color] Antoinette Jackson is the only child of "The Sahara Shade" and "Meteor", two superheroes that primarily operated in Rwanda. They relocated to America upon the birth of their child, in order to raise her in a more stable situation, and to take a break from violent conflict. She was raised in Bakersfield, California where nothing interesting could or ever happened. Her powers manifested quietly and gently, with her parents suddenly remembering they accidentally left their child at the mall one day, but only after they came home and wondered who's legos were laying around. This prompted her parents into tracing back their pattern of forgetfulness and consulting a powerful telepathic friend who confirmed that, yes, at the age of 8, Antoinette did indeed have a low-power mixture of her parents abilities. From that day forward, Antoinette was raised with a lot of attention, routine, and extra schooling. Antionette's parents had to both remember their child existed and ensure she understood her powers thoroughly. Those powers developed and mutated over time, leading to more and more vigilance on their part, which caused Antoinette to resent her parents for being extremely overbearing. Because of this however, her parents were successful in helping Antionette use her powers in constructive or helpful ways, despite the fact they could have been used for no-good or subterfuge. Years later when Antoinette began attending College in Suhona, she came to figure out that she didn't even need an [i]alias[/i] as a crime fighter, because nobody would ever remember it was her. [hr] [color=F053A3][b]Superpowers[/b][/color] [list] [*] [b]Extremely Forgettable // Near Invisibility[/b] -- Not a physically manifesting power whatsoever. Ambush possesses the ability to be easily forgotten about, unless one is concentrating specifically on her. She's even able to vanish while standing close to someone-- by causing a distraction that takes their attention away from her, then stepping out of their line of sight-- they find themselves unable to see her, unless highly focused on finding exactly someone that looks like her, but even then people tend to forget what exactly they're looking for. Confusion often results, which causes the effects of, "What was I just doing?" to settle in more. Crowds or groups make her especially forgettable, due to how many others and distractions there are around. This power even goes so far as to fool mechanical systems in an erroneous fashion-- machines can detect her briefly, lose detection the next moment, then detect her again. Beings with heightened sensory and perception can usually still detect her, unless their senses are overloaded by something else. If she stands still and concentrates, she can even evade those types, but only if she doesn't move and focuses-- which can cause heavy physical and mental exertion on her end. Unfortunately the longer someone isn't focused on or reminded of her, the less they remember her, unless specifically reminded of instances she was present. Even people with photographs of Ambush can forget who she is. This has made for a lot of very awkward family reunions, as this ability can't be turned off, and years of her absence can cause people to forget she exists entirely. There's a small conspiracy theory discussion board surrounding her existence, she is aware of it and laughing about it. Cats can see her without question but, who are they going to tell?[/list] [color=F053A3][b]Gadgets[/b][/color] [list] [*] [b]"Franklin" the Steel Pipe[/b] -- A 4ft pipe, steel, 1.4in diameter, approximately 4.3lbs.
