She has a large, egg-like body, with a long neck and tail, and two pairs of flippers. She is countershaded, with blue-grey on top, and creamy white on her belly and the bottom of her neck, flippers, and tail for camouflage. Her skin is smooth and reptilian in order to decrease resistance when she swims. [centre][color=7bcdc8][b][u]Size:[/u][/b] [/color][/centre] Nessie's body is around 20m long, and 15m tall. Her neck and tail are each around 15m, giving her a total length of 50m. [centre][color=7bcdc8][b][u]First Appearance:[/u][/b] [/color][/centre] Nessie's always just sort of 'been around', never as shy around human's as she shoud've been. When the invasion happened, she was just swimming around Loch Ness. Not much really changed for her, except now she's much cooler with popping her head up to say 'hi'. [centre][color=7bcdc8][b][u]Abilities:[/u][/b] [/color][/centre] [b][color=82ca9d]Psychic Camouflage[/color][/b] - Nessie's camouflage abilities go well beyond merely having good colouring to avoid detection. She is capable of warping the minds of those who see her to where they dismiss her as being just a part of the scenery such as a log or a particularly strange looking bird. This ability does not work, however, on those with a significantly active imagination, for whom seeing her would not be so strange or out of the ordinary. [color=82ca9d][b]Empathic Projection[/b][/color] - Whilst she cannot communicate with words, she can project a general aura of an emotion onto the humans or kaiju around her. In the past, she's used this to make sure that, even if they don't see her, tourists leave happy and satisfied with their trip. [b][color=82ca9d]Sensory projection[/color][/b] - can project sensations onto both humans and Kaiju, regardless of where they are in the world, so long as she knows what they look like. Although only one individual at a time. (so like, she could make someone think they're drowning, or on fire, or nice things too :) ) [b][color=82ca9d]Memory Projection[/color][/b] - Can make an individual, human or Kaiju, experience a memory or imagined scene, wherever they are in the world. [b][color=82ca9d]Memory Probe[/color][/b] - Can peak into the recollections of others, human or Kaiju, so long as they are contact with water. [centre][b][u][color=7bcdc8]Weaknesses:[/color][/u][/b][/centre] [color=6ecff6][b]Psychic Lake Monster - Just Add Water! [/b][/color]- Whilst capable of using her abilities on any within a 10 mile radius of Loch Ness, she is only able to use them on those further afield if they are in contact with a substantive amount of water (so not just like, water vapour in the air, but getting rained on would leave someone vulnerable). [b][color=6ecff6]Confined [/color][/b]- Whilst Nessie could probably survive in bodies of water other than Loch Ness, she is, in general, unable to survive outside of water, so can't really move on her own. [b][color=6ecff6]Not Much Of A Fighter[/color][/b] - Nessie isn't really built for one on one combat, and relies heavily on her camoflage abilities and general speed and agility even whilst hunting (she mostly lives of a diet of moderately sized sea birds and fish - and for a while was the cause of a decline in seagulls). [centre][color=7bcdc8][b][u]Personality:[/u][/b][/color][/centre] Nessie is a gentle giant. In the past, she's had a bit of a sense of humour, deliberately letting humans see her in order to cause a stir, but genuinely, she's pretty chill and just wants to get on with her life. As far as humans go, she's rather fond of them. She finds them amusing and curious, and would really rather they weren't wiped of the face of the planet. [centre][color=7bcdc8][b][u]History:[/u][/b] [/color][/centre] Nobody really knows where Nessie came from, and before the invasion, some would say she was never there at all. A product of drunk scotsmen, of people eager for a taste of the mystserious and the magical. Well. You know what they say about being careful what you wish for.

At work, she is always dressed professionally, even whilst meeting with her charges, regardless of the weather. During her free time, she usually opts for a similarly sleek, sophisticated wardrobe, funded by her expansive salary. At work she usually wears her hair up, in either a bun or a ponytail, although at home she is more prone to wearing it down. [color=8493ca][b][u]Age:[/u][/b] [/color] 36 [color=8493ca][b][u]Occupation:[/u][/b] [/color] Agent of Terra - Human Resourcing department Sarah is a member of the team charged with tracking down individuals who may be of interest to TERRA, and acting as a liason between more… [i]difficult[/i] individuals and the higher ups of TERRA. [color=8493ca][b][u]Starting Location:[/u][/b] [/color] Alone in her Boston apartment, enjoying a nice glass of wine before bed. About twenty minutes drive from the TERRA base of operations. [color=8493ca][b][u]History:[/u][/b][/color] As a child, Sarah always thought she wanted to be a lawyer. So, she got good grades and did all the right extra curriculars, and so, by the time she was 21 and ready to enroll in law school, it was as big of a shock to her as anyone else when she chopped her hair down to a pixie cut, got a [url=https://i.pinimg.com/564x/f7/0d/cc/f70dccac0ae6bb7f7d8d02cba5640fd8.jpg]tattoo[/url], and bought a plane ticket to South America to 'save the rain forests'. After several years of failing to find herself, a few too many attempts from her mother to send her to rehab, and a [i]lot[/i] too many nights sat around a campfire listening to somebody butcher Bob Dylan on guitar, Sarah returned home, dejected. She didn't fee like she'd achieved much of anything, and circumstances meant it was too late for her to enrol in law school. More lost than ever, she moved out, got an apartment and a string of failed relationships, and settled into a corporate job she hated just to avoid being a further strain on her ageing parents. Which was when she was approached by TERRA. To this day, she still isn't sure [i]what[/i] drew them to her, but she's not complaining. She likes her job, and actually feels like she's making a difference.

He cares about his appearance, but not for fashion, instead going after items representative of his own, occasionally odd, tastes irregardless of whether certain items actually look good or clash to the point of possibly causing an international incident. He also wears a [url=https://i.etsystatic.com/10722817/r/il/06b7e7/1439855358/il_794xN.1439855358_n7zj.jpg] medical alert bracelet[/url]. [centre][color=fff200][b][u]Age:[/u][/b][/color][/centre] 25 [centre][color=fff200][b][u]Occupation:[/u][/b][/color][/centre] Officially, field reporter for Cryptid Weekly, a surprisingly popular, but small US based publication dedicated to sightings of the strange and unusual. Unofficially, SEEKER OF THE TRUTH! [centre][color=fff200][b][u]Starting Location:[/u][/b][/color][/centre] Hakata-ku, Fuoka, Japan - following up on a report of fishermen seeing some weird shit [centre][color=fff200][b][u]History:[/u][/b][/color][/centre] As a child, Noah was obsessed with cryptozoology - anything strange, unusual, or possibly supernatural caught his eye. He would spend hours in front of the TV with his Nan watching documentaries about ghosts, aliens, folkloric creatures such as the wendigo and the kraken. Whilst his parents were concerned, they put it down to childish fascination, something he would surely grow out of with time. He didn't. He started writing a blog, 'Catalogue of the Weird' at the age of around 15, dedicated to cryptozoology, which garnered not insignificant attention from interested parties. Around the same time, he started realistically thinking about how he could pursue a career that aligned with his particular interests, and ended up at Imperial College London studying biochemistry, with a view to becoming involved in astrobiological research groups active in the university. Around the same time, his blog had started to pick up steam, something which his supervisor soon picked up on. He was taken aside, and 'had words with', told in no uncertain terms that if he wanted to be accepted as a serious scientist, he would need to 'drop the kooky conspiracy theories'. He took to the internets that same night, and wrote a long blog post ranting about 'eliteism' and 'pressures to conform' - the final nail in the coffin of any potential career in research. It was then that he was approached by the editor of 'Cryptid Weekly', who'd read his blog, and wanted to hire him as one of their reporters. Noah jumped at the chance, packing up his life in Portsmouth and moving to be closer to the Boston-based publication. He has been working there for about 2 years, and whilst the pay isn't [i]fantastic[/i], he likes his job and coworkers enough to make up for it, even if he is haunted by a nagging frustration.
