[color=F93FE7][u]Skills[/u][/color]
[list][*]Skilled Judo/Grappling Combatant
[*]Skilled Boxing Combatant
[*]Fair Public Speaker
[*]Fair Firearm Handler[/list]
[color=F93FE7][u]Powers[/u][/color]
[list][*]Shrinking: Ruth is able to shrink herself down to the size of a Barbie doll, allowing for ease of access into cramped spaces. She's also conveniently carriable!
[*]Enlargement: Ruth is able to enlarge herself. The largest form she can take is about fifty feet tall, with her proportions adjusting to remain normal. In this form, she has some enhancements.
[list][*]Enhanced Durability: Ruth is able to take most forms of assault with ease while in her giant form. Smaller caliber bullets will sting her, and larger caliber bullets will do more serious damage. Explosive rounds from rocket launchers and the like will be able to burn her, and even take her down if the blast is large enough. 
[*]Pain Suppression: Ruth is easily able to grin and bear it, up until the point where she's taken down completely. She'll usually be seen taunting her opponent and carrying on until the moment she's defeated.[/list]
[*]Body Strengthening: Ruth is able to harden her limbs, torso, and head, in order to take or deal more damage. The most common usage of this ability is her hardening her fist to deliver extremely strong punches. [/list]
[color=F93FE7][u]Weaknesses[/u][/color]
[list][*]Cumbersome: While in her giant form, Ruth is extremely heavy and far from agile. Although she is able to perform difficult combat moves, they're easily avoidable which causes her to stick to grappling.
[*]Gradual Shift: Ruth's initial size shift takes around thirty seconds to fully complete, whether she is becoming large or small. If she has to go to the other end of the spectrum (small to large, vice versa), she must gradually shift, which can take upwards of five minutes. If she attempts to adjust her size all at once, it can result in disproportionate body parts.
[*]Fragile: In her Barbie doll form, Ruth's body is extremely fragile. Just like a Barbie, she can easily be broken. She's also unable to move very fast, due to her smaller strides.[/list]

[center][h1][color=F93FE7]Biography[/color][/h1][/center]
[color=F93FE7][u]Biography[/u][/color]
[indent]Ruth was born with her powers. In fact, after complications during her birth, she came out at only seven inches in length. The doctors ran their tests, failing to see how a seemingly healthy newborn could be the size of a five-month preemie. It was when she suddenly began growing to a normal length that they realized she was a metahuman. Throughout her childhood, she was unable to control her size shifts. It was during her teenage years that she began to gain some control over her body. Since then, she's been able to use her powers with ease...most of the time.[/indent]
[color=F93FE7][u]One Year Later[/u][/color]
[indent]In a year, Ruth wishes to be an accomplished hero. She also wants to be able to fight against villains without using her size as an advantage.[/indent]
[color=F93FE7][u]Sample Post[/u][/color]
[indent]Ruth hummed along to the pop song blaring in her ears, steps timed to the music. It was midnight, and she had just finished her shift at the diner. Her face was tilted skyward, appreciating the moonbeams that broke through the clouds. She knew her path so well at this point, that she didn't spare a glance at the sidewalk. It wasn't until she ran into a solid body that she looked down. She offered up an apologetic smile to the towering, middle-aged man in her path, ready to sidestep around him and carry on. Before she could do so, he pressed a hard metal object into her gut, his expression turning grim. "I just want your money, nothing else." He remarked, tone void of remorse. 

Looking down, Ruth frowned at the knife poking her stomach. She took a hand, digging into her pocket and reaching for the tips she had earned that night. Taking them out, she waved them in the man's face. His eyes widened almost imperceptibly as if he were surprised that she had complied so quickly. When he went to reach for the tips, though, she quickly retracted them. 

[color=F93FE7]"Gotta be quicker than that!"[/color] She said with a giggle. A small sigh escaped her when, rather than playing along, the man's hand tightened around his weapon. 

"Just...give me the goddamn cash before I stab you!" His grip tightened further, frustration and anger evident in his twisted features. 

[color=F93FE7]"I don't think I will."[/color] Ruth tilted her nose upwards out of spite, concentrating her powers into her torso. She could feel her skin tighten there, becoming thicker and more durable. When the man thrust his dagger into her gut, the metal pierced her clothing before bending harmlessly against her flesh. 

He stared at her, a mixture of awe and horror on his face. Turning tail, he began to run off into the night. Ruth gave chase, and with every stride, she grew another foot until she was about fifteen feet tall. Her clothing tightened around her body, to the point where it was close to ripping with every movement. Using her increased arm length to her advantage, she reached out and grabbed the man by the back of the shirt, throwing him to the ground. 

[color=F93FE7]"I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to keep you here until the police can come and deal with you."[/color] She put a foot on his stomach, effectively pinning him. His eyes said it all, he was terrified. Reaching into her pocket, she attempted to dial the police with her enlarged digits. 

"The police will be here soon enough, in the meantime, why don't we chat?" 

Turning, Ruth's eyes widened at the man below her. It was Arrowcaster.[/indent]
