[indent]Drake definitely carries a youthful and energetic aura around him, almost as if he was still a teenager he still carries the same energy. He's ready for anything exciting to go down, and his movements are quick and spastic, he can't seem to hold down all of that energy within him. Though, he kind of acts like a model (a goofy) model as he's prone to making melodramatic poses, almost as if someone is taking a picture of him. It's kind of weird. Though he does have a great well-shaped body from years upon years of athletism and bodybuilding, and if you ask he will gladly remove his shirt and flex. He's very well-built, and the body that he has complimented his body-shape well, though I will say his legs are the most defined because Drake was a runner before anything else. And he has a great ass. In terms of height, he isn't anything special being around the average height for a Caucasian male, and his build isn't super stocky nor bony. Speaking of Caucasian, Drake is British and Japanese, but you wouldn't be able to tell given that he looks one-hundred percent white other than the fact that his eyes are slanted. His skin is coated with a variety of different scars from the fact that he is a bit of a rough player when he plays sports. His elbows are shit because he fell on them a lot, his knees are covered in nasty scabs, and knuckles are scarred and bruised from fist fighting. His teeth are also very shitty because he's missing a few [i]and[/i] he should have gone to the dentist more. Regardless, the Blackmore Family have great genes.[/indent]



[color=royalblue]▼ [b]| ATTIRE : |[/b][/color]
[indent]Drake Blackmore here is a connoisseur of jackets! His favorite hobby is finding a cool ass jacket and flaunting it, his favorite being leather jackets. Unfortunately, he was transferred to Florida, which is the one place where he can't wear his favorite jackets. Which sucks, since Drake isn't a summer person. He dresses pretty simply wearing jeans or shorts and a t-shirt with a jacket. He doesn't do the whole accessory thing, except for sunglasses and his gloves. Because of his power, Drake makes it a habit to cover as much of his skin as possible so he doesn't do any accidental power copying. When it's in the blistering summer heat, well, his options are quite limited. However, Drake always goes out in public wearing gloves of some sort. Sometimes black gloves, other times, leather gloves.

That's Drake Blackmore off the clock, when in business; Agent Dragon is all business. Drake wears jet-black full tactical gear that consists of a vest, kneepads, shin guards, gauntlets, etc, etc. It's designed to be effective against a lot of Metahuman threats such as being shock absorption, temperature resistant, acid resistant, isolated, and so on. It's not entirely immune to them, but it'll keep Drake alive in a fight. At his hip, he has a holster which he keeps a Smith & Wesson Model 5946 as his sidearm which keeps on him at all times. His main weapon is a Colt Law Enforcement Carbine, a standard rifle for FAMA, and what he uses on a mission. He keeps a helmet on at all times on mission, which is a riot helmet with a tinted visor and conceals his face altogether. He has various patches on his vest on his chest along with his badge and has painted lightning all over his armor in white.[/indent]

[color=Royalblue][b]FAMA Training  ⫻[/b][/color] Operative Dragon here is a fully trained FAMA agent, he went through the rigors and challenges of training and came out on top. He came out with firearm training, hand to hand, Metahuman combat, power training, and so on. He's not the most experienced, nor is he as good of an agent as his father, but he's still talented. He's gone toe-to-toe with some heavy hitters in the Metahuman field and came out with a stubbed toe.

[color=Royalblue][b]Basketball  ⫻[/b][/color] Growing up, Drake was the star of his basketball team... at least when he played it. He played a ton of basketball either officially for his school or just on the streets, and he was pretty good at it. He often practices shots while in FAMA's gym to relieve stress, but even he realizes that he's out of his element.

[color=Royalblue][b]Hand-to-Hand Combat  ⫻[/b][/color] Drake was always a trouble-starting shithead, and fights were pretty easy to come across in his home-town. He's a pretty good scrapper even without martial arts training and when he joined FAMA they game him everything he needed to perfect his fighting style. Though, he doesn't get into too many fist fights, especially when people sling superpowers around. 

[color=Royalblue][b]Social-Butterfly  ⫻[/b][/color] Drake's pretty good when it comes to people, he's grown up his entire life being at the forefront of his family and getting to know a variety of different people. He knows how to deal with people and knows that a lot of problems can be solved by being a listening ear. He's very easy to make friends out of people - which helps a lot during FAMA work.

[color=Royalblue][b]Metahumans  ⫻[/b][/color] Drake Blackmore, due to being a Blackmore, has tons of experiences and knowledge about Metahumans to draw upon. He knows about how Metahumans began, and how they function, that isn't much of an advantage in FAMA, but he pretty much instinctively knows how to deal with a lot of different Metahumans.
[/indent][/indent]

[color=Royalblue][b]▼ | BACK   STORY : | [/b][/color]
[indent]So to begin, I have to explain the backstory of someone else before I get to Drake.

So Drake's father was Adam Blackmore, a British Metahuman that was alive during Delta-Storm and was one of the few to be infected with the Type-Green energy and gained the ability to copy Metahuman powers. He could observe them in action and gain instinctive knowledge of their powers and copy it by observing it. After Britain had a less than desirable reaction to the Metahumans Adam and his family fled to the states and that was where Adam met Drake's mother Lisa Takahashi, a Japanese woman born in the states. They eloped got married, and then eventually started having kids. Victoria was the first of their children, then Drake came second, then Drake's younger sister Amanda, then Charles was the last. 

Of course, Adam wasn't just any British dude in the US, he joined RAVEN around the time he came to America and became one of their best Agents. He was known as the most powerful and greatest RAVEN agents with the callsign known as All-Father, and he was responsible for many victories against hostile Metahumans and REAPER. He was pretty high up in the organization and that meant massive paychecks so the younger Blackmores could live in relative harmony. The family lived in Black Fall, the city of freaks, in a nice little house in the middle of the woods that they would sarcastically call "The Blackmore Estate." 

Lisa Blackmore, their mother, was the one that stayed at home taking care of the Blackmore children and making sure they don't end up going crazy (Eventually she manifested her own aerokinetic ability). Living in Black Fall wasn't easy, especially when you are Drake Blackmore who was the more rambunctious of the Blackmores. He was just a ball of energy that he carried into his adulthood and had that competitive spark inside of him. That didn't just translate well to sports, but it also meant that Drake wanted to go out and have adventures in Black Fall. Which was what he did, he went out and had fun getting to know the kids their age in Black Fall. As he grew up, he learned about the various groups in Black Fall and made friends with some, enemies with others. Though naturally, he had the potential to manifest an ability, and he was exposed to the Type-Yellow energy (from an animal-meta he met as a kid) in addition to being born exposed to both the Green energy from his father. Drake was one of the very few people capable of manifesting a triple chromatic ability. 

His manifestation, unlike others, was fairly quiet and he didn't realize that he had his power until one day he brushed up against his mother while she was cooking and became a wind-elemental. A being that was part boy, and part raging tornado... naturally, Drake freaked out and lost control of his powers. It took the combined efforts of both Lis and his older, experienced, sister Victoria to contain Drake and get him under control. They immediately contacted Adam, who immediately contacted FAMA and they registered Drake and tested him for his abilities. They learned that he could copy the powers of Metahumans upon contact, and takes on a form based off of it. 

Drake was the last of the Blackmore siblings to actually manifest and the possibilities were endless. Throughout the years, he has used various different powers during his adventures. Though, one day he learned that Adam went to Verthaven to face off against REAPER, and then the disaster occurred. The whole family was praying for Adam, but when the smoke cleared... it was reported that Adam Blackmore was dead.

Drake was absolutely demolished by the news to the point where he was a shattered shell of his former self. The news of his father's death changed Drake from a happy-go-lucky bruiser to a more colder person - it made him far more serious. Around this time, the Blackmore Siblings were sent to Academy 002, in Alaska, it was Adam's last wish before he went to Verthaven and they were cleared to go. The Blackmore Siblings had the experience that changed them all, and Drake learned all about his ability. Along with meeting some of the closest friends he ever had.

He stumbled his way through the Academy Program until he graduated and then he soul-searched. He tried to do the things he loved, but he just couldn't find the same energy he did before. He faked it, but there wasn't anything that brought him joy, nor could he find anything to go forward towards. The feelings of hopelessness were crushing him, especially as the Blackmore siblings began to go their separate ways (primarily to college) and Drake had nothing that really interested him. He wasn't good enough to go pro at basketball, and he knew that college wasn't for him. Eventually, a family friend suggested something; he becomes an Agent of FAMA just like his father. He never gave it the thought, and after talking with some friends he settled on it.

He needed to follow in his father's footsteps, and live up the name of the greatest RAVEN of all time... even though at this point they were FAMA. Drake applied and was rejected after failing the tests and was told to come back a few months later. He spent the next couple months vigorously training and practicing so he could be up to snuff, and when the time came he made all the marks. Basic training began for Drake and he gave training his all, as he was determined not to fail, and even though there were a few hiccups, he graduated top of his class after two years. 

Upon completion, he had to choose his callsign, and then he picked Thunder-God, referencing his current electrical powers. Drake was deployed out in the streets of New York, and his expectations were much different upon going out into the field. Metahumans were ruthless, and Drake learned that he had to be even more ruthless, and in time Drake proved himself a capable FAMA agent. He didn't quite move up due to the fact that he had a few hangups keeping him from reaching leadership positions. He was transferred back and forth in terms of cities and one year he's in Stadium City, and another he's in Austin. Though, one big break for him was when he was approached by Maximilian Cornell, the man who was the leader of the elite team Task Force RAVEN. Drake was selected by Maximilian Cornell to join this prestigious team of Agents that had the greatest in all RAVEN signed on.

On board with RAVEN, Drake found himself having adventures like no other... go to Stadium City and fighting the Tyrants, but the group's main concern was fighting the REAPER terror group. Where ever there was a high concentration of REAPER activity, RAVEN was there on the front lines. Drake felt more like a grunt, but he got into a few fights with the big boss Abel himself! Though one day, one mission went horribly wrong and one fight with REAPER ended with massive civilian casualties... which Drake felt like he could have prevented. Morale for the team was at an all-time low, with several members straight up quitting. 

The Chairman decided that they all needed some time off, and so the team split up for the time being. With some spending some time back in their home country, and others, like Drake, picking a beach resort for some R&R... though he knows the call to action is just too loud for him to ignore.[/indent]

[indent]

[color=Royalblue][b]▼ | POWER   CLASSIFICATION : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Type-Chromatic (Green-Yellow)[/indent]

[color=Royalblue][b]▼ | POWER   DESCRIPTION : | [/b][/color]
[i]Power Mimicry.[/i]
[indent]Drake is a Blackmore, and thus he has inherited their famed ability; power replication, however, it has merged with the Type-Yellow energy and thus affects his physical body. When Drake touches a Metahuman he copies a bit of their Metahuman energy and transforms into an embodiment of that power so to speak. The best way to describe this would be through example; if he touched a pyrokinetic he'll be covered in fire and be able to shoot flames. If he touches a metal manipulator he'll be a walking statue. If he touches a telekinetic he'd become an amorphous telekinetic storm. Or turn into a meaty muscular thing if he gets super strength. He can get a unique form for any type of power. Due to the nature of his ability, when Drake copies a power it mutates as in it changes in function so Drake may have abilities that the original does not. It's less of copying powers themselves, but instead copying their [i]element[/i], if that makes it any clearer. He has, first and foremost, worked out that he can selectively transform parts of his body. The transformation will be a lot weaker than if he had transformed completely, but it's quicker and more subtle. Oddly enough, Drake has learned that he can also encorporate his outfits into certain transformations and it prevents him from destroying his outfits every time he transforms. Drake is capable of storing powers within himself, however, he's limited to two powers at a time - once he copies the third power he must abandon the oldest one.

Here are the powers that Drake has stored:

[indent][i]Electric-Form.[/i] 
[indent]Drake's preferred form he got from a friend from training, and it's the form he's the best at using. Upon activating his ability, he'll be covered from head to toe in a wreath of electricity and he'll be able to shoot all that energy off in a variety of different forms. Starting with a stream, to a complete bolt of electricity that'll fry even the strongest of all Metahumans. Drake also has the ability to fly while in this form.[/indent]

[i]Ambiphian-Form.[/i]
[indent]Drake got this form from a friend in RAVEN, Sonya Mayfield. When Drake activates this form he transforms into a massive frogman with blue skin with black spots not too dissimilar to a poison dart frog. In this form, he gets a mouth of razor-sharp teeth, a massive and super strong tongue, and massive bulbous finger and toe tips. He gains the ability to climb on walls, grab stuff with his tongue, heal faster and regrow limbs, breath through his skin, camouflage herself, and change genders. Drake accidentally did the last did the last trick twice already! His most recent ability.[/indent]
[/indent]

[i]Form-Merging.[/i]
[indent]A new advancement of his ability that Drake has been trying to work out and is on the verge of discovery. He's attempting to figure out a way to merge two forms together to create a powerful merged form... he hasn't quite figured it out yet but he's not sure if he'd be more powerful or less...[/indent]

[/indent]

[color=Royalblue][b]▼ | LIMITS : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Let me just get this out of the way; Drake doesn't know how to use an ability after he copies it, and will need time and training in order to utilize the power properly. Of course, due to the fact that he drops powers fast, he doesn't have the opportunity to really train or get acquainted with it and of course, someone else will get better at it. Which isn't helped by the fact that he will copy any ability that he's compatible with upon skin to skin contact, and he may lose his powerful form for a weaker one. Drake will also need some time to transform, and if ambushed he could easily be taken out before he even starts. Drake, once transformed, can remain in a form long as his stamina allows it, but he'll get tired from excessive usage of his ability. Drake's lightning form requires time for him to charge up to perform the really big tricks like the lightning bolt, so that leaves him open while he draws power. And after such a large feat he'll need to take some time off to recharge. He has a ten-meter limit to his electricity and any electricity that goes beyond that range will dissipate. Rubber and insulators also restrict his conductivity but that's unlikely to be an issue. Drake's amphibian form doesn't have any limits and has the power to end the universe![/indent]

[color=Royalblue][b]▼ | WEAKNESSES : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Drake inherits the weaknesses of the original power, so his replication [i]itself[/i] has no weaknesses. However, Drake's lightning form has a variety of weaknesses... primarily water. Any type of water will interrupt the flow of his electricity and prevent him from shooting lightning as he wants to. Even touching a puddle of water will direct his flow away from his target and to the puddle. Though, it logically won't last long as the heat will evaporate any small sources... he can't easily evaporate any larger sources. Getting drenched or submerged with water will knock him out of the form. Next weakness is lighting! His lightning powers are [i]bright[/i], bright enough to blind him for a few moments, and even fuck up his vision (there's a reason why he wears those goggles). It makes it difficult for him to keep track of enemies and could give people an easy way to escape or sneak an attack on him. Drake's amphibian form is fragile and its skin is very easy to tear and break.[/indent]
[/indent]

[center][color=Royalblue][h3][b]⫸ O T H E R ⫷[/b][/h3][/color]
[i]"... IM STILL LOOKING FOR THAT BASTARD WHO TOOK MY CIGARETTES."[/i][/center]
[indent]Drake has a nasty smoking habit that he picked up when he was younger and holds to this day... he wants to quit but he can't turn back at this point. 

Now, Drake has saved a lot of money and has purchased a Lamborghini LM002 and it is his go-to personal vehicle for when he's just out on the town. It was brand new when he got it and it's a dark-blue color - he wants to get lightning painted onto it but he doesn't get the time these days.[/indent][/hider]

[color=saddlebrown]▼ [b]| PHYSICAL   DESCRIPTION : |[/b] [/color]
[indent]A man with a very large presence. Whenever Johnny steps in, he tends to catch the eyes of everyone in the room. Whether it's his swagger, or the peculiar way he dresses (I'll get on that later). Johnny is flamboyant and dresses with flash. Johnny is just the kind of guy that walks into a club like he owns the bitch, taking the largest steps in the process. People think he's odd at first glance (Or a stupid wannabe pimp). Though, this aura around him is an aura of arrogance and condescension. It's the way he speaks and carries himself that makes it obvious that he thinks highly of himself, and far, far, less of everyone else around him. He doesn't take things seriously, and most importantly, is certainly loud and flashy. He always has a cocky grin on his face regardless of what he's facing. Perhaps he overcompensating for something. 

It isn't just his personality that has a large presence. Johnny is a tall man at six-four and has a slender, slightly muscular, build. He doesn't have enough muscle to make the ladies go "wow," but he definitely has something from all the hard work the man does. Though, it's apparent that he takes time off his day to workout. Johnny's skin is a light-brown - near-caramel - color from his ethnicity. Johnny is part Brazilian (A mix of Afro-Brazilians, and the Brazilians who descended from the Spaniards), part African-American, and part Italian. His mother was an Italian woman, while his father was African-American/Brazilian. It's hard to tell him as any more than Spanish from his facial features. The rest of his family is predominantly Brazilian, so he just tells everyone that he's Brazilian. 

That skin of his, while a delicious shade of caramel, is far from clear. Johnny has a large number of scars from his various adventures, as a sign of his hardships. The first scar he has is a scar on his face... A burn scar on his cheek right under his eye. It's red, and disgusting - and worst of all, people keep calling him "Prince Zuko" because of it (Shit's wack, yo). It's one scar that he does not like talking about. Another wound that Johnny has is a three-claw point scar that has slashed from one side of his chest to the other, sideways. It is a brutal sight, and people ask where he got it from... and he keeps saying, "From my little brother Jaska." Johnny also has various scars on his fingers that look like bite-marks from an animal - one finger even looks surgically reattached... also from his little brother Jaska. Other than that, has various wounds from cuts (that one knife fight he got into was a biiiitch), and other injuries.

If you guessed that Johnny would have tattoos, you were totally right. On his arms is a complex web of fire in a tribal style that starts at his shoulders, and goes down to his wrists. Integrated into this fire is a network of roses and whatnot. On the base of his neck, he has a large tattoo of a rose flower, which is visible depending on what he's wearing. On his chest is a [url=http://www.clipartkid.com/images/499/10-tribal-fire-dragon-tattoos-designs-free-cliparts-that-you-can-7iTjW4-clipart.jpeg]Dragon wreathed in flames[/url]... well, mostly. When he got slashed across the chest, the tattoo was pretty ruined. He just hasn't been arsed to get it removed.
[/indent]

[color=saddlebrown]▼ [b]| ATTIRE : |[/b][/color]
[indent]The one thing that makes Johnny stand out is his rather... peculiar choice in clothing. To put it simply: Johnny dresses like an 80's Pimp in the modern era. No lie. He wears a long coat that is either brown, black, or white, and a matching wide-brimmed hat (With a feather, shark-tooth, etc), and underneath that hat are sunglasses. These coats are the most fabulous, well-made, pieces of fabric out there, and you best recognize. Most importantly, Johnny carries around a black cane. This is just one of many canes. Johnny's favorite attire is an all-brown outfit that consists of a long coat, a wide-brimmed hat, slacks, sunglasses, brown leather gloves, and a black leather belt with a large buckle. This isn't just any long coat, it has many false pockets and secret compartments - where he hides his two Smith & Wesson 617's. Though, while Johnny loves to dress flashy, he can easily pull off a more subtle outfit if the need arises. Johnny pulls off a suit well![/indent]

[color=saddlebrown][b]Poker  ⫻[/b][/color] Johnny is a master at poker. If you play him, you better be ready to lose your money, your clothes, and your house because Johnny is killin' it! He's also adept at other casino games, but it'll never match his talent with cards, baby! 

[color=saddlebrown][b]Criminal Mind  ⫻[/b][/color] Now, Johnny has spent plenty of time around the shadier people, and he has certainly picked up a few things. Crime is Johnny's specialty, and he knows how to deal with the criminal underworld. Though he mostly just gets information from them, everything else is just so messy that he just doesn't deal with it. Johnny is also pretty sharp and observant, good at guessing motives and whatnot. He's also hard to trick.

[color=saddlebrown][b]Shootin'  ⫻[/b][/color] Johnny has picked up recreational shooting, and eventually, through... experience, is able to apply it to a live gunfight. His aim isn't perfect, but if something gets too close, Johnny will shoot it dead. He doesn't know how to shoot anything other than a pistol - revolvers being his specialty (Hence his nickname). In addition, he knows a variety of gun tricks. Such as gun twirling, a tactic he uses to impress and intimidate. 

[color=saddlebrown][b]Brawlin'  ⫻[/b][/color] Brawlin' also comes easy to Johnny, well, he needs to fight because he's one hell of a shit-talker. He knows no martial arts training, but he only needs his good looks and a cane!

[color=saddlebrown][b]Bilingual  ⫻[/b][/color] Johnny also knows how to speak fluent Portuguese, despite having gone to Brazil once. Just something he picked up because of his largely Brazilian family.

[hider=0.1 Story of Andre Ramiah][INDENT]To explain Johnny's past, we must take a look at someone else': Andre Ramiah. 

You see, Andre Ramiah was a poor kid who grew up in Stadium City in the era before the Tyrants moved in (Well, there's a reason for that, so we'll get to it). When he was young, he hung around a pair of girls that would eventually be known as Blizzard, and Queen Carmelita, a pair of powerful telekinetics. Meeting their adopter, a woman who goes by the name, "Barracuda," Andre joined their little circle of crime and was mentored in criminal philosophy. Starting off with small crimes, and working his way up. Eventually, he was infected with the type-blue energy and manifested an ability from proximity with them. An interesting ability at that... receiving extra-sensory instructions on how to complete any goal that he set his mind to.

He became the brains of the group, setting up small crimes, and eventually building up a small gang of similar minded Metahumans and Andre took the name Blackjack. Eventually, the girls told Andre of their greater goals; a criminal empire. And Andre helped them fulfill that goal. It took years upon years of work as Andre recruited an army and amassed an empire... but, they did it, they toppled Stadium City and the existing criminal organizations. Leaving only the Tyrants. All of them basically had an empire to themselves and made tons of money through many, many, many, deals. 

But, that wasn't the life little Andre wanted, playing lapdog to someone more powerful. He wanted a life of wealth and fame for himself. Andre looked to his ability for instructions on how to achieve that. He managed to steal a large sum of cash from the Tyrants, and went into hiding, changing his identity so those pesky Tyrants would have a hard time tracking him.

When he came out... he was [i]Jason Valos[/i].

Using this massive wealth of his, Jason managed to purchase an expensive club... and using a few deals (some shady), he managed to build himself an empire of clubs, five-star hotels, fancy restaurants, and best of all, casinos! Eventually, he was showered with the wealth that he couldn't have gotten without his power. 

His name became known from all over, and he built up a massive family from many marriages (and booty calls)...[/INDENT][/hider] 


[hider=Johnny Valos; the Highroller, the Wizard... The Fool][indent]Johnny's story started when his father met Anne Bacilli at a famous actor's party. He seduced the woman, and she got pregnant with his child. She told him that she was pregnant, and wanted Jason to take responsibility for his child, but Jason was already married, and merely kept handing her checks to keep quiet. Which was enough to keep Anne happy. She eventually gave birth to Johnny in New Orleans - her home city - and bought an expensive house with all the money Jason was secretly funneling her.

When Johnny was around four, his mother found another relationship in a man named Giovanni, and they quickly got married and gave him his little sister, Sylvia. The only problem was that Johnny was somewhat neglected on the moment Sylvia was born. Don't get me wrong, his mother still loved him, but his stepdad didn't want to raise any kids that weren't his own, and his mother was too busy with Sylvia to reign in his behavior. So he was without a solid father figure, and his mother wasn't exactly winning any parent of the year awards. His school-life was where he learned plenty of things - not in the way of education a la math and science, but how the world works and plenty of street smarts. He wasn't taught much about morality, or what was right and wrong, so he quickly got the idea that life was all about him. So he became a bit of a trouble-maker. Not starting fights, but he'd use anything he could to get ahead (and not just in school). He thought of everyone around him as a tool, and consequently worthless. He didn't care about them or their feelings. This quickly became a worrying trend in school. Since he was making enemies fast, and causing trouble that someone else had to clean up. Plenty of times he came home beaten, or sent to detention.

Once he was around fourteen, his mother had enough of it, and sent Johnny to go live with his father in Black Fall... even though his mere existence nearly destroyed his marriage (Again), Jason accepted Johnny into his arms. Inducting Johnny into a life that he could only dream about, he taught Johnny the ways of the rich people and was probably a worse presence on Johnny than his mother. Now, he basically had no one to rein him in - except for shitty maids and butler that didn't do shit. He loved the rich boy lifestyle as he went about his brand new life. Becoming thoroughly arrogant and egotistical. A total jackass that only seemed to enjoy annoying his father. 

Though he was introduced to his family of siblings, the older Valos, and the younger Valos... and eventually, they all had adventures, and all sorts of wacky things, as they went about in the largest concentration of Metahumans in the world. To say the least, the entire Valos family has seen some shit. Fights caused by Johnny, or a random villain trying to get over on the Valos, the headaches for Jason never seemed to end. Growing up with the Valos Family, Johnny definitely picked up poker and other casino games as a hobby. Though, Johnny made trips back to New Orleans to spend time in his home city! Most importantly, spending time with his young sister Sylvia. Eventually bringing her back to Black Fall one summer and introducing her to the Valos. It was a shaky start, but eventually, they became the closest of friends.

As Johnny was growing older, he had time to pick up some hobbies of his. Such as recreational shooting, one thing that he was pretty good at. He thought revolvers were badass and became the king of a revolver. Along with becoming pretty good at poker. In a manner of years of practice and experience, Johnny was closer and closer to becoming the movie badass he dreamed of being.

Though, there was a wrench thrown in that whole plan... there was a young child left on the doorstep that looked an [i]awful[/i] lot like Jason. Except with the appearance of a demon. Wings, teeth, claws, and having the abilities of a powerful Bestial-type Metahuman. The boy was named Jaska Aoki... and Jason remembered the name as some broad he banged from the White Spider Society. While there was [i]much[/i] questioning as to why Jason would have sex with a Bestial-type Metahuman of that appearance, Jaska was accepted into the family. Taking the name of Jaska Valos, he was integrated into the family as the youngest member.

To say the least, Jaska wasn't exactly all that well regarded among the Valos family. He was treated as an outcast by the siblings, and more importantly, Gabrielle. However, Johnny was the only person to give Jaska the time, and the one who became the closest to him. Jake helped, but Johnny was the main help. Eventually, Jaska became the little brother that all the Valos knew and loved, and everyone loved him.

However, that idyllic dream was shattered one night. It was a nice summer night in Black Fall, where all of the Valos was relaxing, of course. Jaska's animal instincts were flaring up, and he was finding himself to be far more aggressive than normal. He attacked Gabriel, and in her rage, she called him a "little devil." Unaware of what she did, Gabe had unintentionally activated the side of Jaska's power that should have remained hidden.

The "Inner-Beast" that all of those who share the Aoki blood have. A powerful hidden form that is monstrous. The young Jaska transformed into this immense beast and went on a rampage throughout the Valos manor. During this rampage, there was an immense amount of pain and suffering on both sides. The Valos didn't want to hurt Jaska, but Jaska was causing them physical harm. A massive battle took place, which Johnny was too shocked to do anything in. During the end of the battle, Jaska grabbed Gabe and pinned her to the ground. Violently pulling out her eyeball. Johnny jumped in and tried to help her... and nearly got his face slashed open for this moment of altruism.

However, Jaska was dispatched by the Valos family... at the cost of many wounds, and the Valos mansion. The family was rushed to the hospital, but when probed about what happened, they refused to give Jaska up. Instead, they paid off the authorities to say it was some Metahuman goon trying to rob them. Where does this concern our superstar? Well, in the hospital, Johnny started feeling weird. He saw something around the people around him - an aura, as you would say. When talked to by a NEST representative, he realized that he manifested a superpower. And now he felt like a [i]real[/i] Valos.

After everyone's wounds healed, it was time to pick up the pieces! The Valos Manor was in ruins, and it would be months before it would be completely repaired. Of course, it meant the Valos needed to find somewhere else to live, and Jason had just the solution! The Valos children head to Academy 002 while the repairs go on. So, they can learn how to use their powers, and Jason doesn't have to worry about his stupid kids getting into trouble. Johnny declined, but Jason sent him anyway.

Arriving in Alaska, Johnny only had one opinion: it fucking sucked. He didn't enjoy it there at the academy at first, but the Valos siblings loved it. Though, he warmed up to it after seeing all the smokin' hot babes there. And in the process, Johnny learned all about his ability. Though at this point, the Verthaven Disaster happened, and everything changed. Suddenly, the Academy got a lot more crowded, and the political climate seemed a lot less accepting of Metahumans. It didn't bother Johnny - because he was up here in paradise! But, it definitely burned him in the ass after he was caught having sex with the headmaster's daughter, and kicked out of the Academy. Well, no biggie. Johnny knew he could just go back to the Valos manor while his siblings finished the Academy program.

[i]Wrong.[/i]

Since Johnny was in his early twenties at this point, Jason felt no need to continue babying Johnny (and quite frankly, he knew his son was an ass). With a limited supply of cash, Johnny went back to New Orleans. The last place where he wanted to be and fell back to doing the same old shit he was used to. The old gang he grew up with had grown up and found new... profitable opportunities in the criminal underworld. Something that Johnny welcomed with open arms.

He became a mercenary. A gangster that worked for the highest bidder. Using his knowledge of gunplay, fighting skills, and new superhuman ability, Johnny became known as "The Revolver." Named after his weapon of choice Johnny offered dirty deeds done dirt cheap to the highest bidder. To being a hitman, to a drug runner, to just a bodyguard. This vicious cycle went on for several years... until Johnny's greed got the best of him. There was a giant assembly of gangs coming together to take over the city ala the Tyrants. Johnny had the [i]bright[/i] idea to try to ax the gang leaders and become the head of this glorious empire.

While Johnny was good, they were veterans at the game. Johnny killed one, and the rest of them ganged up on him and nearly killed him. Sent him running out of New Orleans with his tail between his legs, and a price on his head. He had no choice but to [i]beg[/i] Jason to take him back, and while Jason knew that Johnny was an idiot for trying it, Jason did the same thing earlier. He took Johnny back into the Valos family just in time for their summer vacation! 

This time they were going to Charity Beach and Johnny was excited to have sex with a Cuban woman.

[indent]Type-Blue[/indent]

[color=saddlebrown][b]▼ | POWER   DESCRIPTION : | [/b][/color]
[i]Negative-Empathy.[/i]
[INDENT]Johnny has a distinct link with negative emotions - which manifests in a form of empathy. Johnny has the ability to see the emotions of people just by looking at them. Which manifests in colors that surround them, an aura, as you could say. However, his ability specializes more in seeing people's negative emotions. He would need to be within five meters of someone to see their positive emotions, but he can see someone's negative emotions from around thirty-eight meters away. The stronger the negative emotion, the further away he can sense it.

It doesn't quite end there. There is a special kind of energy given off by people that only Johnny (and select Metahumans) can even detect known as Emotional Energy. A brand of mental energy that is created by emotions. Johnny can absorb this energy naturally by being in the presence of people feeling negative emotions. But, on touch, Johnny can dig deeper and absorb residual Emotional-Energy. Which is emotional energy left behind from past emotions, that he can drain from a person? Or, he can go to a place where a powerful emotion was experienced recently and absorb the energy from there. Johnny can also reach inside of himself, and get emotional energy... but, what does Johnny do with this emotional energy?[/INDENT]

[i]Negative Emotional-Energy Manipulation.[/i]
[INDENT]Johnny has the ability to manifest emotional energy and weaponize it. This energy appears as white light, with vertical lines of varying colors pulsing across it. Johnny is capable of manipulating this energy in any way possible, building constructs out of it Green Lantern style as it is solid. This Negative-Emotional Energy can be used as a weapon or a shield. To begin with the offense, Johnny can repulse it in a variety of different forms, such as beams, orbs, etc. It isn't really necessary to make it into the shape of a weapon when a blast of it works just fine. On the other hand, being able to mold it into anything possible allows him to create shields of the sort. Usually, in fights, Johnny crafts poker cards, and the sort and uses them offensively and defensively. The force and durability behind these constructs wholeheartedly depend on how much negativity is going on around him. It can be durable enough to take a barrage of bullets, or weak enough to be broken by hand.[/INDENT]


[color=saddlebrown][b]▼ | LIMITS : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Johnny's emotional energy constructs are weak against physical attacks. They can easily block electricity, or heat, but are far easier to break with physical attacks. Now, Johnny's ability is directly linked to how many people are feeling negative emotions around him. In essence, it dictates his strength. If he's the only pissed off person there, well... he better be really angry or he'll be at a disadvantage. Johnny can absorb all emotions from people within a forty-eight-meter range - but, the closer they are, the better he can absorb emotions from them. His ability to read emotions is limited by the emotions he is trying to read. If it is a positive emotion, Johnny will be unable to sense them from outside of a very close range. Nor will he be able to access his form of telepathy. Johnny is also weak against other Empaths, as their abilities counter his, and vice-versa.[/indent]

[color=saddlebrown][b]▼ | WEAKNESSES : | [/b][/color]
[indent]This may come as a shock to you, but Johnny's ability is weakened by positive emotion (Gasp!). Positive emotions are the exact inverse to Johnny's ability, as they weaken him. If enough people are in the area feeling happy or whatever, Johnny may become powerless. What's worse is if Johnny himself is feeling a positive emotion. Johnny also has to experience whatever emotion he is presently absorbing while he has it stored inside of himself. It may turn the normally balanced Johnny extremely angry, scared, or worse! Johnny is weak against mental attacks. Telepaths can easily access his mind and attack him mentally with ease. His ability is so weak against telepathy that even someone reading his mind will cause him a head-ache and disrupt his power.[/indent]

[indent]It's not difficult to tell where Kashmira was born and raised. Her facial features and skin tone are distinctly featured from the Indian-sub continent (the southern area, of course), and she speaks with a [i]very[/i] thick Indian accent - however she dresses more "American" than a walking stereotype (that's only for special occasions). The girl seems to carry herself with caution in mind, she usually takes slow steps but most of all watch her step. She usually keeps her hands together in front of her, or at her sides. A lot of people get the idea that she's rather tense given the way that she carries herself and the fact that she's very easy to startle. It's not the case innately, but she unintentionally gives off that kind of impression. 

In terms of build, Kashmira is a very small girl at just an inch below five-feet due to genetics alone. The girl finds it easy for herself to get into small spaces but always find it incredibly hard to get noticed. She's extremely slim, bony, even due to a mixture of her diet and the fact that she tries to excercise every day so she gets plenty of exercises. She doesn't have a whole lot of muscle-tone nor does she have a lot of body fat, but what fat she does have is merely padding for the girl. She has some curves with 36Bs and some hips, but nothing that'd make heads turn. India is a very diverse place, and Kashmira has roots from the Keralite people (and other Indians mixed in but they're rather distant). Her skin tone is a little dark but nothing major and she has a very pronounced nose with a large nose ring, and her eyes are large and a brown color - packing a striking gaze within them. Kashmira has long shoulder-length hair that's a dark brown color and is very well-maintained, and it's naturally a little wavy - she doesn't keep it in any style.[/indent]

[color=forestgreen]▼ [b]| ATTIRE : |[/b][/color]
[indent]Despite what you may think, Kashmira doesn't dress like a walking stereotype. She has a very modest style of dress but still uses brands that people her age wear. Out on Charity Beach, she doesn't really get the opportunity to dress heavy, so she usually wears a shirt of modest length or sweat-shorts. Sometimes, Kashmira wears a shirt that shows a little cleavage, but she strays away from clothing that would reveal more. She's not a hat kind of woman, but she does sometimes wear a beanie when it's cold. Though, she has a wide selection of clothing from India that she wears during special occasions and holidays. When at St. Mercers she wears dark-blue scrubs typical for all nurses there.[/indent]

[indent][indent]

[color=forestgreen][b]Nurse  ⫻[/b][/color] Kasmira is a fully trained and licensed Nurse who has an encyclopedic book of knowledge in her head. She can identify any common ailment almost instantly and any uncommon one after thinking about it for a little bit. Don't expect her to perform field surgery though if someone got disemboweled. At best, she'd figure out a way to stop the bleeding enough for actual medics to arrive. She also keeps a supply of bandaids on her at all times.

[color=forestgreen][b]Trilingual  ⫻[/b][/color] Kashmira grew up in India all of her life, and thus the language that comes easiest to her is Gujarati, and you can find her speaking it on phones or accidentally slipping into it. However, Kashmira also took classes in Hindi and English, so she's fluent in both languages.

[color=forestgreen][b]Cooking  ⫻[/b][/color] Kashmira's mother taught her how to cook since she was young and by the time she was thirteen she was cooking meals for herself. It's helpful because Kashmira doesn't eat meat and she lives alone. She goes to pick up some ingredients and she's all set!

[color=forestgreen][b]Dancing  ⫻[/b][/color] Kashmira was taught to dance by her mother (and grandmother surprisingly enough) how to dance. Both her mother and her grandmother were amazing dancers and they passed on that skill to Kashmira. She hasn't had too many chances to strut her stuff, but she's been practicing and practices dancing by herself as a hobby.
[/indent][/indent]

[color=Forestgreen][b]▼ | BACK   STORY : | [/b][/color]
[indent]To begin, Kashmira was born in and grew up in India to two loving parents, but she had a twin sister Rashmika. Her family tree is quite complex because her grandparents had thirteen children, and she is just one of a legion of grandchildren. Growing up in Ahmedabad, life wasn't particularly hard for the girl, she grew up playing and hanging out with the other children and she was raised to be a devout following of Shaivism. Her early life wasn't particularly eventful other than the fact that she learned English and Hindi while in school in order for her to effectively communicate with other Indians. Life was going to as ordinary for the girl; she was going to grow up to become an amazing young woman that would strive to achieve Dharma. However, [i]it[/i] came to Ahmedabad, the Beast, they called it, Kasmira now realizes that the thing had shaped her modern life. A powerful Metahuman that had been rampaging across Europe and Asia for decades and went on a rampage in her home city. It was a violent experience that haunts Kashmira, and worst of all she was separated from her parents. 

As a little girl wandering through a destroyed city was a chilling experience that Kashmira really does not want to experience again. However, she noticed a red light coming from one of the buildings and wandered inside... and found a really weird red crystal. She grabbed the crystal and stuffed it into her pocket, and eventually was reunited with her family after the coast was clear. Given that her home was destroyed she found herself living with her uncle's family in Hyderabad until she got a new place to live. She held onto the crystal but felt oddly strong when holding it, and while playing with it, she had inadvertently caused a chunk of the building she was in to fall off. It was a scary experience, but she realized that she had done it with a bit of experimentation and realized that she can control stone. Eventually, she showed her twin Rashmika, and also showed her the crystal - but upon contact with the crystal, her entire body started glowing with red energy. Eventually, Rashmika manifested with the ability to create and control wood. 

They practiced with it and discovered something interesting; when they close to each other; both of their abilities are much stronger. When they are touching, they can cause world-shaping feats, and the two felt amazing but chose to keep it a secret. However, they inadvertently attracted the attention of all the wrong people; and they came a coming. When Kashmira was walking home from school, she took time to stop at her favorite place to kick a soccer ball. There was no one around... until she eventually smelled smoke and turned around to see Abel himself, smoking a cigar. The girl was terrified by the titan, but he stated that he meant no harm and that he tracked a Delta-Crystal to the area and asked her if she knew anything. The young Kashmira merely shook her head and Abel pressed on. In the end, Abel went on his way but she was terrified by the experience, so she ran home and grabbed the crystal and threw it into a river hoping that would be the end of their problems. However, they just started - the next night strange men were hanging around their household, and eventually made a move and broke in and held the family captive, demanding the crystal. Kashmira, out of guilt for starting the whole mess, told them that she threw the Delta-Crystal away. 

Abel soon made his appearance and requested that she lead him to it. So, Kashmira walked through the streets of Hyderabad with the world's most feared terrorist walking behind her. The streets were cleared by his mere sight and the police, military, and Metahuman regulation had no clue what to do without endangering Kashmira. Eventually, she let him to where she threw the crystal and he walked into the river and after a moment he came back with it. He merely walked past her, cryptically saying "We have come to terms." before walking into a portal and his REAPERS pulled out. Her family was heavily questioned by the authorities, but ultimately they couldn't get a lead on the elusive REAPER organization. 

This was, among other reasons, why the Sarai family ultimately made the decision to move to America - where Kashmira's grandmother lived. They settled in New York, Staton Island, and life wasn't the easiest for the family at first - given that Rashmika and Kashmira are the only two in the family that knew more than a small amount of English. They eventually got a job at a restaurant that Kashmira's uncle had, and Kashmira, once she was of age. Though Kashmira and Rashmika finally met their grandmother in person at last - the aging woman, Hanumanta, was one of the first Metahumans in India and told her granddaughter about all the adventures. She informed the two about the little thing about their blood; they have an effect known as "The Bond". A connection between her entire lineage that allows them to draw strength from being near family members that are Metahuman. Most of all, she gave Kashmira a necklace with the shard of a red Delta-Crystal in it and stated that it boosts the power of whoever wears it. She also explained that she used it when she was younger, but now that she's aged she has no more use for it. Kashmira nearly rejected it out of fear of Abel, her grandmother insisted that it was a dark, cold, harsh place out there and that she needs every tool in her disposal to survive. The words resonated with Kashmira given her encounters with Abel, and chose to take the crystal - only to use in the most desperate of all situations.

She had problems progressing through American school at first, but in time she hit her stride and became a grade-A student through sheer dedication alone. She wasn't exactly one that fit in with Americans, but she found common ground with other Indians... though, she still felt like an outsider from time to time. This stride continued from grade school all the way through college. Kashmira was a very compassionate woman, one that wanted to help people where ever she could. Part of her wanted to become a therapist, but she realized that her true calling was the medical field. Which is where she worked her ass off to meet deadlines and had to put off advancements from her fellow classmates until she managed to graduate and pass her bar exam.

Her entire family congratulated her, but she figured that it was time for her to move on and become her own woman... besides, New York was far too cold for her! Kashmira applied to places all over and eventually, a hospital in Charity City decided to give her a call. She didn't even remember applying but if they were calling she took her ass straight to Charity Beach and became a nurse. Eventually getting herself acquainted with her new surroundings and a nice new apartment just for herself. 

Though, Kashmira wants to follow her grandmother's footsteps and be the start of a massive family that'll hold her in high regards![/indent]

[color=Forestgreen][b]▼ | POWER   CLASSIFICATION : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Type-Red[/indent]

[color=Forestgreen][b]▼ | POWER   DESCRIPTION : | [/b][/color]

[i]Stone-Manipulation.[/i]
[indent]Kashmira's main power she received on contact with the red crystal, she's capable of manipulating all forms of stone; whether natural or artificial. At it's most basic her manipulation allows her to move and shape the earth, however her control is a more refined version of it. Instead of raw power her ability primarily focuses on [i]precision[/i]. While she can't cause a landslide or collapse a building with a snap of her fingers she can create functionally anything out of stone. She can erect walls, pillars, spikes, and more out of the group, and send chunks of stone flying. Kashmira finds it easier to control smaller stone than larger pieces. Kashmira has to do this through body motions, so she can launch objects out of the ground by stomping her foot and can knock over stone pillars by casually pushing her hand over. It can it any body movement, as it's a connection between her power mind and body. Kashmira has a ton of potential with her ability and has plenty of advanced techniques in her arsenal. Such as creating weapons/armor, flying using her ability, and controlling sand.

[hider="The Bond"]Now let me explain what "The Bond" is. It's a trait shared between anyone who shares the same blood as Hanumanta Patel that is independent of their Metahuman energy; it's an effect that allows Metahuman Sarais and those related to Hanumanta to boost their abilities by being near each other - exponentially so if they are touching. For example; when Kashmira was touching her twin sister Rashmika, her range almost tripled and she can do more destructive feats. However, the Bond comes with the cost of losing control - while Kashmira gets more destructive she loses that gentle fine control that allows her to sculpt. Anyone who has Hanumanta's genes and manifests a power can use the bond - and it'll only work if they are two Metahumans. Oddly enough, none of her family have to possess the type-green energy, almost like it's an effect of different power in and of itself. So none of them are chromatics, purely have their own power. Hanumanta has a very complicated family true with many grandchildren and other people that share her blood, so there are dozens who have the Bond and in the future, there could be hundreds with it. However, since Kashmira is alone in the story it won't come into play.[/hider]

[indent]Kashmira's Stone-Manipulation has a painfully short range - around sixteen feet of herself, but she can best control stone that is closest to her. Kashmira has the easiest time manipulating smaller pieces of stone than larger chunks. So that example of her erecting a pillar out of the ground? It would be very tiring and straining on the girl. As stated before, her ability is more focused on precision than raw power so she has an easier time shaping a stone surface than making earthquakes. Seemingly, she feels as if her power is more focused on creativity than destruction. Her stone manipulation requires contact with the ground or contact with the stone surfaces. The purity also plays a part as the stone that's diluted with other elements such as concrete is harder to control. [/indent]

[color=Forestgreen][b]▼ | WEAKNESSES : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Kashmira has a lot of potential and physical strength that can't be ignored, and FAMA classifies her as a high-level threat. However, Kashmira is a mighty-glacier, she has a lot of strength, but it requires that she's slow-moving or immobile in order to use her power. Mixed with the pathetic range and the fact that she's not too fast herself, her power will leave her helpless if she has to deal with a faster moving opponent. Using her ability causes nausea, physical weakness, and more - which gets even worse if she tries to do an extreme feat. Due to the fact that stone is heavy, it's very difficult to use the ability in the first place and far more tiring than other elements.[/indent]

[indent]Kashmira was raised as a devout follower of Shaivism and has no intentions of changing that. She is a vegetarian and refuses to eat meat on the grounds of said religion. 

Kashmira's grandmother gave her a necklace that has a Delta-Crystal woven into it, and she keeps it hidden safely in her apartment. She's afraid of it, but will not hesitate to use it in the case of an emergency.

[color=darkcyan]▼ [b]| PHYSICAL   DESCRIPTION : |[/b] [/color]
[indent]The young explosively energetic woman is Amanda Blackmore, who usually walks with a skip to her step and is willing to strike a pose on the dot. Yeah, it's easy to tell from her demeanor that she's a drama queen. Much like her older brother, Drake; she is a ball of energy, but her energy is more childish. She's very easily excitable and doesn't try too hard to hide her emotions. Now, in terms of Amanda's body-type, she is very skinny and well-toned with the body of a gymnast - because she is one. Her body is kept fit through stretches and other exercises such as jogging and hitting the gym. She worked hard for her flat stomach. She has an hour-glass build with wide hips but a thin waist. She doesn't know how she does it, but she has quite a big chest at 38F and a nice butt she got from hitting the gym. It's like what far that she should have goes straight where it matters. Amanda doesn't have any bulging muscles, however, and that's one thing that she works on. Amanda has plenty of scars from gymnast related injuries and other such events. Amanda has a couple of tattoos, that she has gotten recently. On her right shoulder [url=https://img.myloview.com/murals/asian-dragon-tattoo-400-34306.jpg]she has a dragon[/url] that goes all the way down to her elbow. Right in between her breasts [url=http://tattoooideas.com/wp-content/uploads/parser/Twitches-Sun-And-Moon-Tattoo-Designs-1.jpg]she has the tattoo of a sun and moon[/url]. Right on her back, that encompasses her entire back, [url=https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/line-thai-fire-design-tattoo-japanese-fire-tattoo-background-line-thai-vector-set-line-thai-fire-tattoo-hand-drawn-red-120833403.jpg]is a tattoo of flaming wings.[/url] Finally, she has a tattoo of [url=https://i.pinimg.com/564x/a6/17/5d/a6175dd99e629f0d38801487dba7daf5.jpg?b=t]a phoenix on her left shoulder.[/url] In terms of race; Amanda is part British and part Japanese, with her father supplying the British, and her mother giving her the Japanese. She leans on her father's side of the family looking no different from a regular white woman at first glance until you look at her eyes. They are somewhat slanted, but she still identifies as a Caucasian woman. Her hair is a black color and it's straight, she keeps it in a long ponytail.[/indent]


[color=darkcyan]▼ [b]| ATTIRE : |[/b][/color]
[indent]Amanda always wears very loose clothings, because she has an aversion to super tight clothings. Sorry boys, but she hates wearing clothing that strangles her. She, like her brother, is a fan of jackets... but she didn't bring any to Florida. So she wears an assortment of jean shorts, cargo-pants, sweat pants, and a T-shirt of her choice. She isn't afraid to show a little skin so some of her outfits can be quite revealing. But, Amanda isn't the skirt and dress kind of gal - she always wears anything but those things to the point where some people say she dresses like a boy. Though that's mitigated by the jewelry that she wears, she's a fan of necklaces, bracelets, and even sometimes wears colorful rings. Sometimes Amanda can be seen carrying around a guitar. Though, in the gym, she dresses in "gym clothes" or her gym-wear which consists of yoga pants and a sports bra.[/indent]

[indent][indent]

[color=darkcyan][b]Gymnastics Champion  ⫻[/b][/color] Since Amanda was young, she competed in gymnastic competitions and came home with several awards for doing so. She's extremely nimble, flexible, has exceptional balance, and looks good in a leotard. Though, she hasn't practiced or participated in a gymnastics tournament in God knows how long, she practiced so hard that the skills that she has learned stick.

[color=darkcyan][b]Automechanic  ⫻[/b][/color] Amanda always had a thing for fast cars and that reflected in her career choice. Amanda learned how to work on cars from one of her friends and eventually took classes in the field and was officially certified. She knows how to field diagnose cars and can even fix cars on the fly provided that she has the parts (and even if she doesn't, she has Macgyvered before).

[color=darkcyan][b]Roller-Skater  ⫻[/b][/color] Amanda loves to roller-skate, even in her adult years. Even though it's a childish activity, she likes to roller-skate down the streets of Black Fall. She would love to roller-skate in Charity Beach.

[color=darkcyan][b]Guitarist  ⫻[/b][/color] It's probably her weakest skill, but Amanda has taken guitar classes, and knows how to play a few songs but don't expect her to be a master at it.

[/indent][/indent]

[color=darkcyan][b]▼ | BACK   STORY : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Amanda has a similar backstory to her older brother Drake; their father, Adam, was a British immigrant who fled the nation due to hostilities towards Metahumans and met his love, Lisa Takahashi, and the two fell in love and started the family. First came Victoria, then Drake, then yours truly, and then Charles. Adam was a high-ranking member of RAVEN when it was around, considered to be the best, and made sure the Blackmores could live comfortably. And out of all the Blackmores, she was probably the closest to their father, and she always considered herself daddy's little girl. She was always going to him for questions and asking him for guidance and she was the one that was hit the hardest when he had to go away for his RAVEN missions. Of course, this meant that Amanda fell into spirals of depression when he was gone. For comfort, Amanda went to sweets and other such goods, in order to make it easier and what happened was that she gained a lot of weight throughout the years. She was mocked and bullied throughout school for being so overweight, that she was almost afraid to go out.

Of course, she wasn't alone, she had the support of her many siblings that helped her get through school but she wanted more. She wanted to improve herself and lose this weight, so that's what she did. She lost the weight through exercise and eating right... in addition taking up gymnastics. It was originally something that her gym teacher suggested that'd help her lose weight, that she immediately took up as a passion. Amanda saw it as something that came naturally to her as riding a bike, and even though she was overweight, she loved it. Once she lost all of her weight in about a year, she decided to take it seriously. She forwent social events to practice either alone or at the gym, and because of that dedication she came home with the trophy after trophy. Even if she didn't win, she gained the motivation to win.

What she didn't realize was that she was the second Blackmore, surprisingly enough, to actually manifest an ability. Without the need for a traumatic event or somewhat to occur. The first power she received was telekinesis, that she received from her other sister Victoria, whom jokingly hit her with a book using telekinesis. Suddenly, Amanda could move stuff with her mind and found it seriously friggin cool! The first thing that Amanda did was dick around with it, pulling pranks on people throughout her school. Mainly picking on her gymnast rival from school, but after Victoria warned her that she could lose all of her trophies if it got out, she decided to stop.

After moving up to high school she met her sweetheart, Matthew Detmer, and suddenly everything changed for her. She got to know him, and they started hanging out, starting out as friends but the more they hung out the more Amanda realized that she had growing affections for him. One day, she decided to let it all out and admit that she had feelings for him that he returned. Though it was difficult for Amanda to balance gymnastics, which she was still very passionate about, and her relationship with Matt. What threw another wrench in her home life was her relationship with her cousin, Nikki. You see, Lisa wasn't the only Takahashi, there was also Pamela who went on to marry a man named Kota Watanabe and birth two children, Micheal, and Nikki Watanabe. Due to the strained relationship between Lisa and Pamela, the two families rarely met, but Amanda was the only one with a close tie to their family, namely Nikki.

The two hung out a lot, even though they were completely opposite people and eventually Nikki manifested with the Chromatic ability to telepathically dominate insects and alter their biology. Nikki told Amanda about her vigilante adventures all over Black Fall, and Amanda found that so friggin' cool! Out of impulse, Amanda went along with Nikki on one of these adventures and... it didn't go super well. They ran into a Metahuman criminal known as the Desert Scorpion who had an ability that rendered him almost entirely immune to both Nikki and Amanda's abilities. He could not only transform into a powerful scorpion with a shell hard enough to render him immune to Nikki's insects, but also could transform the area into a scorching hot desert. The second he activated his latter ability, he managed to track them down [i]and[/i] he attack them. The only saving grace was that Amanda was able to copy his power so she was immune to his ability to turn the place into a desert.

The Desert Scorpion fled when FAMA showed up, but the two girls were taken into FAMA custody and were in the hospital for a few days. However, after explaining what happened; both of them were outed as Metahumans. And, as Victoria anticipated, it spelled the death of Amanda's gymnastic career. Nikki almost got thrown in jail due to this, but Adam pulled a few strings and managed to get them off easy. However, while Amanda got off easy, she was crushed by how furious Adam was upon hearing about what her daughter was doing. She disappointed daddy, and would do anything to make it up to him! 

Almost immediately after; the Verthaven Disaster occurred and they learned that Adam was sent there and was in the thick of it. Amanda hoped that Adam would make it out alive, but then it blew over and she learned that... Adam died in the disaster. Amanda was crushed by the events and was mentally wounded so badly that she had retreated into her dorm room for several days. Eventually, Amanda went back to Black Fall to properly grieve. Adam's funeral was the saddest day she ever had. Afterward, they were approached by his RAVEN friends and they told the Blackmore family about Adam's request before he went to Verthaven. Which involved his children going to Academy 002 in Alaska and learning how to use her powers with the rest of the Blackmore siblings. Thus, they had the time of their lives up there, meeting some of the best friends they could ever have. Learning the specifics of her power was nice, but the best part was that Academy 002 had a gymnastics team!

Around this time, the Blackmore siblings drifted apart. Victoria and Charles went on to college, Drake remained in Black Fall to sulk until he joined FAMA, and Amanda, well... after she finished the program and got her diploma she didn't know where to go. She remained in the Blackmore estate as she decided to try to move on past Adam's death and try to get a degree... but then that didn't work out too well. She then decided to go out live her early twenties to the fullest and went out partying and doing other such things. Amanda's closest friend during these times was, again, Nikki Watanabe, and they decided to brave this brave new world without Adam together. 

The gym became an outlet for Amanda, or a distraction, where she relieved all of those bad emotions that she built up over the years. After signing up for a gym not too far away from the estate, it quickly became a second home for Amanda. She got the rockin' bod that she always wanted, and then some, and enjoyed the looks from the horny guys.

Eventually, Amanda and Nikki got in touch with a girl named Nakala Phillips, a Metahuman they met in the Academy that became an automotive mechanic after passing. She was a "flying brick" so to speak, with the ability of super strength, durability, and flight, which Amanda copied quite a few times. Nakala was Amanda's closet friend while in the Program and eventually became the third member of their group of friends, and became the inspiration for Amanda's career choice. Fast cars were always something that Amanda liked, and so Nakala imparted much knowledge onto Amanda about vehicles and how they worked. It was about time for Amanda to get a job because the money was drying up, while Drake was sending money to keep the Blackmore Estate, there was a need for Amanda to get her own. Eventually, Amanda took the classes and officially became a mechanic in the Phillips automotive garage. It was surprisingly fun, even though she had to endure casual sexism from customers - she thinks she looks sexy in overalls, though. 

The routine went well, but eventually, it was time for Amanda's vacation. She heard that Matthew got a house in Charity Beach, so that's exactly where she went.[/indent]

[color=darkcyan][b]▼ | POWER   CLASSIFICATION : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Type-Green[/indent]

[color=darkcyan][b]▼ | POWER   DESCRIPTION : | [/b][/color]
[i]Reactionary Power-Replication.[/i]
[indent]Amanda has the famed Blackmore power replication ability, and like the other Blackmores, she has a different form of it. Her version, known as reactionary power replication, allows her to copy powers of anyone who uses their power on them via absorbing a sample of the Metahuman energy present. For example, if she was thrown across the room by somebody with super strength she'd copy it, if a telekinetic or earthbender hit her with a rock she'd get telekinesis, or if someone with telepathy read her mind she'd gain telepathy. Whenever she copies a power her Metahuman energy will glow corresponding with the color of the power-type she just copied. She can control whether or not she wants to copy a power by merely willing it, and due to her training at 002, she won't copy powers she doesn't want. The power will mutate somewhat when she gets it, so she'll get a slightly or significantly different version of the power. Amanda only has the ability to store one power at a time, and the second she copies another power she'll lose the powers currently store.

[indent][i]Flying Brick.[/i]
[indent]A power that Amanda got from her friend Nakala, a Metahuman whom FAMA stated to be one of the strongest in Black Fall. Fortunately, Nakala has no interest beyond living her life and being an automotive mechanic. Nakala has gifted her friend Amanda her power on a variety of different occasions so Amanda knows how to use it somewhat. The power is simple, Amanda has durability, super strength, and flight, and is functionally superman at his basest level. The strongest ability has to be her durability since Amanda's cells down to the bones and skin are reinforced to the point where she could get hit with an attack that would kill her and she'd still get back up and tank small arms. This strength extends to her muscles, with her muscles being able to exert supernatural amounts of force, and allows her to lift up 750lb without straining herself and a thousand pounds at most. Finally, Amanda has the ability to fly, granted to her from the ability to use telekinesis on herself. She's able to propel herself through the air superman style and when she grabs objects this telekinetic field wraps around it - allowing her to lift up objects without having to worry about them falling apart.[/indent][/indent]

[/indent]

[color=darkcyan][b]▼ | LIMITS : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Amanda, upon copying a power, has nary a clue as to how to even use it. She doesn't prefer powers that are complicated and enjoys the most straight forwards she can find. While she can choose not to copy a power, if she's hit by surprise by a power she's not aware of she'd still copy it. This is because she has to be aware and actively resisting the attempt to copy the power. In addition, there's a large number of powers that she totally can't copy at all, as she can't copy powers that only operate on a personal level. Which means regeneration and such powers are out of the ballpark for her. In addition, she can only copy one power at a time.

As for the limits to her flying brick power Unless she throws something, Amanda will be restricted to close ranged combat. While she's strong, she's still limited by her stamina. Excessively lifting objects places a strain onto Amanda, like average humans her muscles will tire out after doing a lot of work. It's rather easy for her to overexert herself and burn out. Fighting at full strength isn't exactly ideal. While Amanda is tough as nails, she still feels pain and punching too hard can hurt her hand. Her durability mostly prevents physical attacks from hurting her, elemental (Specifically Energy based) attacks are effective against her. Getting set on fire isn't pleasant (Her blood might boil!), electricity would knock her out, and etc. And, you know, she still needs air.[/indent]

[color=darkcyan][b]▼ | WEAKNESSES : | [/b][/color]
[indent]The primary weakness of Amanda is that, even if she's copying powers that are used on her, they still hurt. If she was set on fire by a pyromancer she'd still be burned before copying their power. If Amanda is badly beaten enough she'd lose her power and she'd have to start over again. Other than that, she gets the weaknesses of the original, too. In the case of Nakala's power, she's not familiar with the ability as Nakala is, and doesn't quite know her own strength. That doesn't bother Amanda when she's fighting but it's a pain in the ass when you rip the door off its hinges for the nineteenth time in a week. When Amanda uses her strength, then she has the likelihood of tearing up her bodily tissues. Which hurts and is not something she wants to do in a fight. It would also cause plenty of joint pain, and impair her healing. Amanda also doesn't have the best balance, throwing a roundhouse kick is just as likely to knock herself over. Finally, muscle is pretty heavy, and it adds to her weight and it makes her a lot heavier than most people and thus makes the whole stealth thing a lot harder.[/indent]

[indent]Makoto is definitely a woman in great age and health, for starters she still looks like she's in her twenties! She still has soft, wrinkle-free, facial features and she's in amazing shape. The woman has the body of an Olympic athlete through vigorous training. She rolls up her sleeve you can see thick muscle, and she knows better than to skip leg day; her thighs are stated to be so thick that they can crush a watermelon. Though her build is still relatively thin, from a distance you'd think that the gal is thin as a rail. Of course, since this is set in the summer, she's going to be dressing lightly so her body's going to be on full display. What makes her somewhat intimidating is the fact that she's so tall, for Japanese standards. She's at the average American male height, and that's because of genetics and the fact that she drunk lots of milk growing up. She doesn't have much butt, but at least Makoto is proud of her 34D's that are entirely homegrown and natural, because of her habit of wearing baggy clothes they don't stick out too much. Now, I'm saving the best for last... Makoto is a pure-blooded Japanese-woman and that's obvious in her whitish skin with golden overtones and facial features. [/indent]

[color=gold]▼ [b]| ATTIRE : |[/b][/color]
[indent]Makoto is a spy, a REAPER spy in particular. Her attire changes from situation to situation; you can find her wearing a dress one day, disguised as a nurse another, and even used a construction worker disguise. Makoto calls herself the master of disguise, after all. However, whatever she wears, she has a Glock 43 concealed on her being somewhere, and at all times to reach for in case the going gets tough. Off the clock she wears whatever, she doesn't really put a lot of thought into her outfit unless she's going somewhere. She likes to wear jeans or cargo pants of some kind, but she also likes to wear skirts sometimes. Her shirts range from t-shirts, to dress shirts, and sometimes she wears what she calls "lesbian flannel" with a wide variety of different jewelry. Let me get into her REAPER armor; it's a jet black armor made out of chainmail and kevlar that covers her from head to toe. She decided to personalize it a bit; she painted an Oni with a devilish grin on the helmet and even attached little horns on top. In addition, her armor has a huge black wig attached with thick, dirty, matted hair that goes down to her back. All for aesthetic purposes.[/indent]

[color=gold][b]REAPER Training  ⫻[/b][/color] Contrary to popular belief, REAPERS are given training on par with modern-day soldiers. From hand to hand, firearms, to fighting Metahumans, and even dirty stuff like sneaking and planting bombs and shit, are all skills Makoto has. Since she's such an experienced REAPER, all of this is almost second nature to her.

[color=gold][b]Spy  ⫻[/b][/color] Makoto has experience working as a spy for REAPER for ages now, which means it's pretty easy for her to put on acts, and make them convincing at that. In order to get information, new allies, or get into new organizations, she knows just how to come up with the perfect name on the fly!

[color=gold][b]Cunning/Clever  ⫻[/b][/color] You don't work for a major terrorist organization for almost a decade and live by being stupid, Makoto is definitely a smart cookie. She knows how to come up with creative solutions to simple problems and is seemingly able to always be able to think herself out of a corner.

[color=gold][b]Painter  ⫻[/b][/color] Makoto is naturally a very creative person, and this is a skill that she brought from her younger years, but she definitely knows how to draw up a mean painting. In her spare time, she draws paintings that she decorates her apartment with.
[/indent][/indent]

[color=gold][b]▼ | BACK   STORY : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Makoto's backstory is not something she tells a lot, and when she does the details always seem to shift and change...

However, Makoto tells it like this; she was born in Tokyo Japan as the child of a pair of loving parents, she had a brother whose name was Daisuke. Her father was the breadwinner and worked as a salaryman in a high-scale corporation. He brought back money so the Koda family so they could afford all sorts of luxuries, such as sending both of the Koda children to private schooling. Both of them were expected to succeed at life and driven to learn as much as possible so they may be top class members of Japanese society. Makoto was trying her best but couldn't help but try to slack off playing videogames or just going out and hanging out with friends. She was always a very social girl that would try to connect with the people around her - a sharp contrast to her brother who was very antisocial and was bullied for his abnormalities.

Makoto tried to help her brother where ever she could, but she found herself getting dragged into their venomous bullying whenever she tried to help him. So she was torn between helping her brother and having a rich social life and in the end, she could only help Daisuke. Family first, that was what papa Koda told her, so she had to smile while she bore the harassment. However, one day Daisuke was acting weird and covered in injuries like he was hiding something; so Makoto wondered if he had found a weapon and was planning on killing one of his bullies. 

The reality was much worse, at least for Makoto. One day, she confronted Daisuke and found out that he had a weird glowing crystal, a white one in fact. Makoto immediately took the crystal from him, knowing exactly what it was; a delta crystal. The rarest one, in fact, and Makoto wondered where in the hell he got it from. After probing Daisuke; she found out that he fought a delinquent for it and was hoping that it would give him the power to protect the two of them. Makoto found it lovely that he wanted to protect them, but this was too much. Makoto ultimately decided to bury the crystal in the yard, realizing the crystal was far too much trouble than it was worth.

However, when Makoto touched it, she noticed that she was glowing white, she didn't pay it any mind. Until a few days later when Makoto was being attacked by the bullies, beaten and humiliated... she disappeared. Poof. Into a cloud of black smoke, and the bullies were confused and there was a huge search for Makoto. Until she reappeared in the same spot a few hours later horribly traumatized. She told everyone that she ran away but kept the details sparse, but she spent those few hours in a shadowy reflection of the real world. It was cold, empty, and horrific, not a good place for a young girl. After the smoke cleared, Makoto realized that she was a Metahuman, a horrific thing that wasn't thought too well of in Japan. Many Metahuman children in Japan are forced to hide their powers, or worse, are practically exiled from the family.

Thus, Makoto kept her power a secret, and since she was already an honor student, she put time aside to practice with her power. Which she named "The Dark". It was a cold, lonely, dark place, so she felt the name was appropriate for it. And with The Dark; Makoto learned that she could teleport and even separate her soul from her body for a period of time to look around. The fun she had with her power - especially getting around in hectic Japan! Though, things changed for the worse real fast.

The Koda patriarch lost his job after his company launched a faulty product that leads to a few lawsuits, and they needed someone to blame; so they picked him. Made him pack up his things, and security escorted him out the front door. It was the saddest day he ever had since he had nothing but loyalty to that company ever since he got out of university and no other corporation would hire someone with a reputation like his. So the Koda family hit hard times that lead to all of them scrambling to keep a roof over their heads. Makoto got a part-time job and hope that it would help stop the sinking boat, and Daisuke... well, he finally found his place: The Yakuza.

Makoto didn't know how exactly Daisuke fell in line with them, but she knew why; he was a weirdo outcast and they are a group for them. He came home one day with all sorts of intricate tattoos and kept staying out late at night; ignoring his studies. He brought back money and Makoto, at this point, didn't have the words or energy to argue with him about it, she just let it go for now. She just used her part-time job as a waitress to do the best she could for her family to stop them from burning out completely. 

One night, though, things got [i]even worse[/i]. Daisuke woke her up and asked her where the crystal was; because the Yakuza was willing to buy it for huge amounts of yen. In retrospect, the deal was too good to be true, but Makoto was desperate and was willing to do anything to get money. So, she dug up the crystal and the two went along to the seedy parts of Tokyo to make the deal. Everything looked like it was going to go well, and the briefcase full of Yen was all theirs... then REAPER showed up.

It was either such a huge deal that Abel himself had to show up, or the terrorist had nothing better to do - Makoto figured that Abel wanted to make a scene in Japan. That was, again, irrelevant, because the Yakuza were eliminated quite easily and Makoto got herself and Daisuke out of there - but he had the genius idea to try to get the yen, and would not leave without it. Makoto figured that she was the best to get it and after the bullets stopped; she decided to go for it. She stepped towards it, but Abel managed to catch her off guard and held her up one handed. She found it hard to escape his grasp, and Daisuke tried to free her, only to get restrained by REAPERs.

Makoto begged for her life, and said anything in an attempt to keep her alive. Abel merely stared at her as she begged... before tossing her across the room and kicking her the briefcase full of yen. He told her to make good use of that money and stepped into a portal to escape. Makoto, briefly, thanked whatever deity was in the sky before the two of them returned to the Koda household. The money kept them safe and comfortable for a long time and neither parent dared to ask, as they were able to move to a lower income house and stay happy. However, the money ran out rather quickly and the members of that clan of the Yakuza came after the Kodas, and the ray of hope ran out rather fast.

Then she came; a woman that would change everything for the Koda family: Rin Tajima. A woman who was with REAPER that was ordered to gather information on the Koda after the deal with the Yakuza gone wrong. She approached Makoto knowing their struggles and she gave them an easy way out; join REAPER and she could support the Koda family and fight off the Yakuza. She didn't know what to do, but at this point, her life was falling apart so she finally chooses to go through with it and join them.

Rin told her she wouldn't be disappointed. Despite what REAPER initially appeared; they were a lot more... organized than she thought. They gave all sorts of weapon training and taught her how to put her power to good use. However, apart of her first trial was to get over her fears of killing; there was a politician they kidnapped bound and gagged in front of her, and they gave her a gun. She was hesitant, but she went through with it because they would kill her otherwise; she blew the guy's head off and it was horrifying. Then they gave her another man to kill, and another... this time; he wasn't bound and gagged. He was enjoying a vacation with his family in Japan and Makoto was ordered to kill him as her first mission - and she succeeded when she seduced him and killed him.

That was when she adopted the codename Onryo, and it wasn't long until she donned the REAPER armor. This was the start of Makoto's missions, and throughout the years she traveled the world doing missions for REAPER. She became one of their most trusted agents, as she became a master spy. Getting information, infiltrations, assassinations, and even insertion missions - after a certain point, she received news that her father killed himself and her mother died soon after. Her brother was nowhere to be seen, and Makoto had no intention of finding him; she didn't have the strength to face her brother.

Makoto was partnered with another REAPER who went by the name Veronica Davis; though Makoto was more of her sidekick she was fine with that. Their skills aligned perfectly and their success rate was high... even though Veronica found Makoto very annoying and the older woman enjoyed posturing her younger partner. Makoto was assigned to Black Fall, and that was where she found someone else who could utilize the Dark. A Japanese girl named Aiko Yamamoto, who she found in the Dark and was honestly confused by the experience, and so much that she was thrown off guard.

Interested, Makoto found the girl off-duty and the two talked and formed a bond; some sort of mentorship relationship. Aiko's power allowed her to summon and spawn the dark as if it was some sort of solid material and trap objects inside of it to release it. Which was a much different usage than what Makoto had for it, and wondered if she could do the same. However, the girl was involved in the Allegiance branch in Black Fall, and she was responsible for something big that happened there that involved two other Japanese girls that she was friends with. It wasn't pretty, and that left a lot of hatred and grudges that Makoto herself was there to witness.

The older REAPER had to move on; she couldn't get another girl involved in her dirty business. Due to the fact that not one, not two, not three, but [i]five[/i] REAPER targets were tracked to Charity Beach, Makoto was transferred to that branch of REAPER. She was excited about the sunny beaches and beautiful boys and girls... though she could tell some serious shit was gonna go down.[/indent]

[i]The Dark.[/i]
[indent]So to give insight to her secret past, Makoto has come across a very rare type-white crystal in the past and instead of becoming a master of all time and space, she has been connected to another universe she calls "The Dark". The dark is a shadowy mirror of our world full of moving, smokey, darkness, and has no lifeforms - or no lifeform that Makoto can comprehend. All objects take the form of this smokey darkness and are constantly "moving", and while moving Makoto can shift these objects out of the way. This world seems to be vaguely connected to our world, as Makoto has learned it's full of different shortcuts. Shortcuts that Makoto can use by briefly traveling to this world - it's something creepy about this place and it's so cold and uncomfortable when she moves, like walking through frozen water. She can travel to this world at will, disappearing into a cloud of dark smoke and remain in this universe long as she pleases - when she wants to come back she'll reappear right where she was. However, she has learned a few techniques utilizing the dark.

[indent][i]Dark-Step.[/i]
[indent]Makoto's primary ability, and by focusing on a location she can instantaneously travel there. She has trained with her power to the point where it requires little to no concentration to travel. And I don't use the word teleportation because it's not quite that. It's more... launching herself through both universes and ending up at one place in her current one. She can't go through solid objects, and if she tries to dark-step and there's a solid object in her path - regardless of what it is - she will immediately come to a stop. When she Steps through the dark, she'll disappear into a puff of black smoke and reappears in another puff - with trails of dark seemingly marking where she goes. Makoto can step several times in a row, but the action is very exhausting and will require a break - and she gets the same result from longer steps. When she steps, all objects and momentum are preserved so if someone's holding onto her before she steps they'll still be holding onto her.[/indent][/indent]

[indent][i]Spirit-Form.[/i]
[indent]Makoto's secondary, and far lesser seen, ability allows her to detach her mind (or soul) and it takes the form of a horrific black mass that vaguely has her body shape. It flows when it moves, leaving behind a trail, as the form has the ability to fly in all directions. The body has no coherent or solid physical form, anything that touches her simply goes through her, she can phase through any solid object, and she finds it difficult to affect the physical world. She's capable of affecting the physical world to a small extent like touching somebody, moving a small object, opening a door, etc. Where ever she goes, she's accompanied by a strange whisper.[/indent][/indent]

[indent][i]Ghost-Step.[/i]
[indent]A combination of the two abilities, Makoto can use her spirit form to get into a place and then use her Dark-Step ability to send her body to the location. She finds this very exhausting and is unable to do this multiple times in a row - usually saving it for the last ditch escape.[/indent][/indent]
[/indent]


[color=gold][b]▼ | LIMITS : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Using all of Makoto's abilities are very tiring, especially Ghost-Step. She can't use them all willy nilly without tiring herself out and has to conserve herself in order to properly use it. When she simply transports herself to the Dark, she'll always return to the same place that she was when she traveled there. Which makes it a less than effective dodge, because somebody may just anticipate her coming back. And she [i]has[/i] to come back. She can teleport around seven meters easily without it being tiring, and about three times in a row before she has to take a break, and can teleport twenty meters in one sitting. It can also be stopped if any solid object gets in the way at all. Makoto's Spirit-Form isn't super tiring, but it has a range of around thirteen meters and cannot travel past that dome. Finally, the Ghost-Step is her most tiring technique; the further away she travels, the worst it'll be.[/indent]
 
[color=gold][b]▼ | WEAKNESSES : | [/b][/color]
[indent]There is... something in the Void. A monster, a demon she thinks it is, and whatever it is, it's after her. Whenever she uses her power it is drawn to her, and if it catches it... it'll kill her. She survived a few close encounters with the thing, but coming out alive has made Makoto terrified of the thing. If she sees it; she'll refuse to go back. In addition, staying in the Dark too long or overusing her abilities too much may result in her becoming trapped in the Dark with no way out. With the thing, and the Dark has no food or water. It's usually a few hours, but one time she's been trapped in the Dark for a day straight. With an eldritch horror that wants to kill her. The Dark is a very cold and unforgiving place and excessive usage of her ability will cause insomnia, depression, and won't really want to do anything for a while. Each of her abilities has its own weakness. Darkstepping leaves her disoriented and sometimes dizzy and nauseous due to the way it works. Her Spirit-Form has one fatal weakness; it leaves her body behind completely helpless and if somebody finds her she's good as dead. Ghost-Stepping leaves her [i]incredibly[/i] disoriented and dizzy, so bad that she won't be able to fight or do anything for a while.[/indent]
[/indent]

[i]"I won't lose myself to the Dark, not again."[/i][/center]
[indent]Is Makoto Koda even her name? Who knows.

Usually, Makoto is the more stealthy type and her trusty Glock 43 is sufficient for her. But when her mission involves more... insertion; she keeps two weapons on her. Her trusty MP-443 Grach which has been painted black and she keeps on her side, which has saved her several, several, times and has killed many people. She also has a Kalashnikov SVK Sniper Rifle with a modified clip, which she uses because sniper rifles are too big for her.

The Dark is also an alternate mirror-world of sorts that is the space between this universe and the neighboring ones. A few different Metahumans have the ability to draw strength from the dark and utilize it.
