Many people are surprised at her choice of drink, as the only alcohol she enjoys are whiskey and rum.[/i][/COLOR] [b]//Paraphernalia:[/b] [COLOR=BLACK]• [b]Cerberus Whip[/b] | [i]A pet project of Nicole's, this whip is an experiment on using her abilities offensively. The entire weapon is made of toughened, weighted cloth, and woven into the last three feet of the rope is a thread that burns on contact with skin. The idea is to wrap the burning part around an exposed limb, but she hasn't had the nerve to try it on anybody.[/i][/COLOR][/sub][/hider] [/cell][cell][sub][b] Appearance Details[/b][/sub] [sub][sup][color=black]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/color][/sup][/sub] [color=black][indent]Nicole is very small, and is often mistaken for someone much younger than she is. She tries to compensate for her youthful appearance by wearing her hair in a bun, using glasses instead of contacts, and wearing bulky clothing like sweaters and scarves. She wears only light makeup, if any at all, and has no tattoos or piercings. Her slender figure and small stature lead many to refer to her as 'cute', though she insists she is mearly average.[/indent][/color] [sub][b] Personality[/b][/sub] [sub][sup][color=black]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/color][/sup][/sub] [INDENT][color=black]On the surface, Nicole is very bubbly and cheerful, bordering on airheaded. She greets everyone with a smile or motherly concern, whichever is waranted, and always has time to listen to someone talk about their day. Behind closed doors, however, Nicole tends to focus on her own failings, percieved or real, and slowly loses any desire to do things. Left alone for long enough, Nicole will become less and less active, eventually performing only the neccessary day-to-day tasks she must. Lately, this has become less of a problem as she has a store to run and customers to see to, but occasionally her old habits resurface.[/color][/INDENT] [/cell][/row][/table][/color][color=gray][sub][b] Character Synopsis[/b][/sub] [sub][sup][color=black]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/color][/sup][/sub] [color=black][indent]Nicole was born in Santa Celia, where her parents ran a small coffee shop that had just enough regulars to keep the doors open. She lived a fairly idylic life, helping her parents out in the shop when she could and spending time with her friends or at school. She discovered she had powers when she was 14, when she was fussing over a frayed seam on one of her shirts and managed to accidentally unravel the whole thing, then managed to get herself completely tangled in the resulting pile of thread. It took her parents two hours to rescue her, durring which there was an inevitable panic, then a conversation about how this had happened and finally a caution from her parents to keep herself safe and not get herself in trouble. From then on she experimented with her powers in secret, managing to make it to the end of high school without any major issues. Just as she began college, however, news stories began to circulate about people with extraordinary abilities alternately committing and stopping crimes. By the end of her second year, Nicole decided she was tired of keeping her abilities secret, and moved back home to take over her family store, adding her own touch to the business by opening a specialty clothing store, where she could sell clothing with a bit of extra function or, for a higher price, certain specialty orders. After all, she reasoned, if there are going to be superheroes, somebody is going to have to make their suits.[/indent][/color] [sub][b] Abilities & Skills[/b][/sub] [sub][sup][color=black]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/color][/sup][/sub] [INDENT][sub][b]//Abiliites:[/b][/sub] [INDENT][COLOR=BLACK][b][i]Thread/Cloth Control[/i][/b] | Nicole has full control over the movement of thread in her vicinity. She can move it precisely enough that she can weave thread into high quality cloth, and can extend her awareness into the thread to manipulate it on a much finer level than modern machinery.[/COLOR] [COLOR=BLACK][b][i]Fabric Modification[/i][/b] | Nicole can imbue thread and cloth with special properties, from extra durability or fire resistance to glowing or color-changing. This process takes more time and energy than simply manipulating the cloth.[/color] [COLOR=BLACK][b][i]Limitation(s)[/i][/b] | Nicole's Thread Control is very short range, only extending about five feet from her body. Moving thread with any precision requires focus, almost to the point of trance, so anything more than broad movment is dificult outside of a controled environment. Changing the properties of cloth takes even more focus, and leaves her weak after any serious work.[/COLOR] [COLOR=BLACK][b][i]Weakness(es)[/i][/b] | Nicole has very low combat ability. Physically she is below average for a normal human, and her powers have almost no direct combat application.[/COLOR][/INDENT] [sub][b]//Skills:[/b][/sub] [INDENT][COLOR=BLACK][b][i]Clothes Making[/i][/b] | Nicole is very skilled at making clothing using her power. The variety and quality of her work is on par with some major clothing manufacturers.[/COLOR] [COLOR=BLACK][b][i]Cooking[/i][/b] | Nicole spent most of her early life learning to cook and work in a kitchen helping out her parents.[/COLOR][/INDENT][/INDENT] [sub][b] Supporting Cast[/b][/sub] [sub][sup][color=black]▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔[/color][/sup][/sub] [color=black][indent]To be determined.[/INDENT][/COLOR][/color][hr]
