[color=e62020]▼ [b]| PHYSICAL   DESCRIPTION : |[/b] [/color]
Jade has been described as having what’s called a “pear body” with measurements that do not make her too skinny but nowhere near curvy. She works out on the regular, which may attribute to her lean build and tight features (stomach, buttocks, legs, etc). Her skin is nowhere near flawless. As a young adult, especially one with the life that she’s had, there is bound to be evidence of previous stress. There are marks along her arms -- well, scars more like it. They have, for the most part, healed due to her metahuman ability, but those kind of scars don’t ever go away that soon. She does tend to keep her blonde hair unkempt, but she has a preference of looping it into a single ponytail. And aside from a slightly angled jawline and the sometimes heavily application of make-up, Jade is relatively above average as far as her natural looks go. Her genes have gifted her with being pretty and that’s honestly the only thing that can be said about that. 


[color=e62020]▼ [b]| ATTIRE : |[/b][/color]
When it comes to her style, there’s something to be said about how Jade can make an outdated look appear to be stylish. For her, sometimes being sexy and being comfortable are one in the same. She generally likes to dress lowkey but with a flavor or two added from the grunge style. This usually translates to some generic tops, flats, jean shorts/pants, dresses often paired with a jacket of some sort, skirts with thigh-high socks, fishnet stockings, flannel shirts if she’s feeling it, and, of course, beanie knit caps for when she can’t be bothered to do her hair in the morning. 

Basically, Jade goes through two modes: the mode where she puts effort into looking good and it will show and the mode when she can’t be bothered and will just throw on that doesn’t make her look completely hideous, even though nine times out of ten, she looks around looking like a female bum.

[color=e62020][b]▼ | PERSONALITY : | [/b][/color]
There’s a lot to be said about Jade as a person. On the surface, she appears to hold herself with confidence. Dressing the way that she does and not giving a fuck about what anyone might think takes a lot of balls and even more confidence to support the weight of the world that she carries on her shoulders. It might not seem like it, but even at the age of eighteen, Jade has seen more trauma in her life than anyone her age should. Because she hasn’t let it drown her is even more reason that she has a strong will to survive.

First impressions with Jade always seem to go as well as they possibly could. She’s a friendly girl and has just enough of a down-to-earth personality that doesn’t make her boring (which she is anything but), yet it doesn’t make her too overbearing. Her usually chill demeanor always serves as a gesture for people to befriend her. It’s when they see she’s got a chip on her shoulder and a bit of an edge/anger problem that might be a problem later. Being friends with Jade, however, does guarantee that she’ll fight for you at any given moment she senses people might cause a problem for her friends. She’ll defend that person or those people until she dies. Another thing that attracts people to Jade is her love for adventure and her loose interpretation of the rules. 

Just as there is an upside to Jade’s overall persona, the biggest downside boils down to two things: her temper and recklessness. Maybe she’ll punch a few people, maybe Jade will do something a little more than what some normal people call “obeying the law”, and maybe -- just maybe -- Jade will blow up at someone so intensely it might actually get physical power wise. Truth is, she doesn’t think half the time. Jade is a passionate young woman and her superpower is an extension of herself, so it only intensifies her unpredictable nature. It doesn’t help that she goes through very high and lows. When she’s high, she feels like she’s at the top of Mount Everest, but when she hits a low, that’s when her emotional instability is seen clear as the fire that can random shoot from her hands.

[color=e62020][b]▼ |  SKILLS : | [/b][/color]
[color=e62020][b]Street Fighting[/b][/color] /// If you had grown up in the slums of Seattle, it was either learn how to defend yourself or die trying. Jade opted for the former. She took up boxing as a form of self defense. She won a few junior competitions during her seven years being a practictioner until an incident involving her uncle forced her to quit and move cross country to North Carolina.

[color=e62020][b]Mechanic[/b][/color] /// Through her uncle being the leader of a motorcycle gang, Jade was always around bikes from a young age. Her daily routine was school, boxing, and then hanging about at her uncle’s motorcycle club/garage. There she learned how to take apart motorcycles and put them back together; but eventually that knowledge carried over to automobiles in general. If it has an engine, it was likely Jade knew how to work it and what needed fixing just after a few moments of looking at it.

[color=e62020][b]Eye for Style[/b][/color] /// Just because she’s rough around the edges doesn’t mean Jade can’t rock a look. She can make homeless rags look stylish with the right snip here and there. Her mind is wired in just the right way so that she can spot what goes with what. She knows when to take a risk with a certain outfit and when to play it safe. Colors are a huge factor, too!

[color=e62020][b]▼ | POWER   CLASSIFICATION : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Type-Red | [color=firebrick]Fire Manipulation[/color][/indent]

[color=e62020][b]▼ | POWER   DESCRIPTION : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Jade has always burned with an intense passion and with that emotions run high. And her abilities are a direct extension of that. She is able to concentrate high heat from in her body and project it outward from her body, though mainly her hands. This heat, when physically realized, is fire -- hot, burning, melt-your-face fire.  She has been noted to possess the range of five feet in front of her when projecting streams of high-temperature fire from either or both of her hands without any difficulties arising. And as noted during her time at Academy 003, Jade is also capable of generating her own fire for uses such as concentrating the heat into her hands for a literal "burning touch" that can induce burning sensations on skin, causing them to blister, blacken metal after a few seconds of touching them, and completely evaporating small amounts of water. Additionally, Jade is also able to create smaller constructs such as fireballs and hurl them towards a target and she can do it multiple times.[/indent]

[color=e62020][b]▼ | LIMITS : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Despite being able to manipulate and generate fire, Jade herself is not actually immune to it completely. If her own fire is thrown back at her, though it will not harm her in the same it would a person without her abilities, she will still get burned. The same also could be said about when she is thrown into heated places. Like everyone else, she is subject to smoke inhalation and burns if the heat is bad enough to get past her partial fire immunity.

Jade's abilities are also quite limited to offensive capabilities. Some say it's because of the wildness of her personality, which often reflects on the overall control she might have. Her manipulation isn't perfect, so it goes without saying that her accuracy when she wants to hit something isn't exactly -- well, accurate. She might miss her marker by a few inches or might completely obliterate it. Either she's too emotional and her fire runs wild like her spirit or she holds back too much, thus doubting her potential.

When Jade activates her burning touch, she can only do it three fingers at a time. If she even attempts to go past that by an inch, it will literally backfire and cause her feel some burning sensations.

Lastly, if Jade ends up soaking wet in water, she will temporarily be unable to use her abilities until dry.[/indent] 
[color=e62020][b]▼ | WEAKNESSES : | [/b][/color]
[indent]Jade has two weaknesses: anything cold and anything to do with her mental state. When faced with the opposing element, JAde will lose. this is not something she can force out with her will. When her fire comes into contact with anything cold (as long as it is as strong or stronger than her), she will lose. And when Jade is losing control of her mental state, depending on the state of her reserves, which again also depends on just how frantic she might be acting, it'll backfire on her. Jade's abilities will be severely weakened and might even cause a double-edged scenario where she feels more of the fire than her targets do. 

High altitudes also present a problem because where it is harder to breathe, Jade cannot properly focus; and if she can't focus, no fire. Also, no food means no fuel and no fuel means no fire.[/indent]
