At first glance, one could mistake Nikki Watanabe for being male - after all her facial features are somewhat masculine, she has very short hair, her body doesn't have a whole lot of curves, and what curves she does have is usually hidden by her "for practicality" style. Though, it's offset a bit by how short Nikki is and the fact that her voice is undeniably feminine. She doesn't really mind or has a whole lot of insecurities about her (she feels that she's a bit gender fluid herself). As for her vibe, you'd probably not even notice it unless you are specifically looking for her. Nikki keeps her head down and doesn't like attracting a whole lot of attention to herself, which is why she usually dresses plainly and practically. Nor does Nikki wear a whole lot of makeup or dye her hair an insane color, and Nikki, unfortunately, has a bit of a low voice - which makes her a bit hard to understand.

In terms of build, Nikki is in some pretty good shape - because the girl would rather spend her time working out than at parties or anything. She's got some pretty thick legs and some strong arms, even a six-pack - from years upon years of training and snorting protein powder. That's one thing that she thinks gives her some sex appeal, but she keeps that part of her body hidden, covered up, unless strictly necessary. Nikki, as stated before, is really short, at five feet tall even. Being so short thankfully is the only thing that helps her appear feminine because Nikki is completely flatchested, and she kind of has a butt. Not that sex appeal was really something that she really cared about. It almost appears there's as little bodyfat on Nikki as humanly possible.

Obviously, Nikki is Asian, Japanese-American in fact. You probably could tell from her facial features if it wasn't for her off-white skin tone. The girl is proud of her heritage, but she's pretty scared. Her knees aren't exactly free from scars from falling over as a kid and playing soccer. She has a few cut scars and other marks from her vigilante days and as a FAMA agent but they don't exactly stand out a whole lot. Though her skin isn't the best, it's still covered in other marks and bruises.

In terms of attire, Nikki dresses fairly practically as opposed to any style. She likes to dress for the weather, wearing tank-tops and athletic shorts when it's hot, wearing the most middle-aged white dad jeans or some cargo pants that she obviously got from a surplus store and a leather jacket when it's cold. Though sometimes people will take a good hard look at what Nikki is wearing and wonder who in the world dressed her. Other than that, Nikki doesn't wear any jewelry or accessories. While on duty, however, Nikki wears the standard FAMA chainmail armor with a helmet and visor to keep her eyes safe. There isn't really a whole lot to go over with the armor other than the fact that it's resistant to most Deltahuman abilities.

Reclusive, driven, kind-hearted, motivated, Nikki has lived a life of being on the outside and spent that time bettering herself and growing in ways that some people may find strange. The girl, by nature, keeps to herself and usually keeps her mouth shut unless she has something interesting to say. Usually, her tone and emotions are neutral and composed, and she maintains an air of professionalism at all times. Rarely will she curse or raise her voice and she tries to be fair and unbiased, keeping her personal thoughts and opinions out of her work. Thus, Nikki tries to be the "perfect" worker; hard-working, motivated, and always striving to be better.

Nikki's social skills leave a bit to be desired, she's not completely socially inept or anything - she's totally fine with talking with people that she knows. Just that she's either behind or oblivious to some social norms, culture, and trends (mainly the ones on social media). Nikki always has barriers and her guard up around people that she doesn't know, and she's a bit insecure about herself so she's always worried about saying something dumb or embarrassing herself. When Nikki is comfortable around people, some may tell that she's a bit playful, goofy even. However, this can bleed into her professional life as she banters from time to time, just to add a bit of fun to the workplace.

Nikki is a very fast-paced human being and that's not a good thing - she's a bit impatient and rushes into things. There are two facets to this that prove detrimental to Nikki, for starters she rarely if ever gives herself a break or time to really breath. This really stresses Nikki out but she doesn't really know how to get things off her chest or reach out to people. So, naturally, Nikki isolates herself or finds something to distract herself - which doesn't last long. The other negative side effect of this is that she rushes into things without a second thought and causes them to crumble.

However, Nikki tries to appear as if she makes the best choices at all times and that she's infallible. However, Nikki is the kind of person that doesn't really have a whole lot of respect for the rules - if they get in her way. She thinks that FAMA and other such organizations are too limited by stupid rules, so if she can get away with it, Nikki will gladly tiptoe around it.

Athlete⫻ Nikki spent a great deal of her childhood playing soccer and she was easily the best player on the team. This paved the way for her athletism, footwork, speed, and coordination that she translated well to her FAMA work. In her spare time, she likes to go to play basketball and go kick around a soccer ball.

FAMA Agent⫻ Nikki joined FAMA and is a fully trained and equipped Agent. She's been trained in a wide range of firearms, how to deal with Deltahumans, and some hand to hand. She's received plenty of supplemental training as a result. She's pretty good at what she does and only wants to improve.

Krav Maga⫻ After a certain little incident Nikki decided that she wanted some self-defense lessons and her parents signed her up for Krav Maga. Naturally, she gained a great deal of passion for the martial art and ended up as a black belt. She used her training during her time as a vigilante, but she quickly found out that she's too small to put up a good fight against someone bigger than her. However, she mostly hits a sensitive area and hauls ass.

Nikki Watanabe was born to Pamela Takahashi and her husband Johnny Watanabe, it was a simple affair; they met, got married, and Pamalea conceived Nikki. Now there wasn't really a whole lot relevant to her early childhood, she was raised right and with love and passion. However, at some point she was exposed to the Delta-Point Energy at an incredibly young age - nobody knows when. Pamela speculates that maybe she came across another Deltahuman at school. However, Nikki subtly manifested a White-Blue Chromatic ability, a very unconventional one at that. Where ever Nikki went, insects would appear at random and it made it difficult for Nikki to progress through school as it stood. She had to be taken out of school and ended up being homeschooled for a time.

Her mother was fighting tooth and nail to get the young Nikki set up for an Academy, but they didn't have any slots available for her at the time. However, her mother did her best for the young Nikki and her continued development but Nikki couldn't help but feel like a freak. She feared her ability and tried to suppress it to the best of her ability, and then she did. Nikki tried to convince her mother to let her back into public school but she was skittish at the notion, only because she feared what would happen if she cut loose and lost control. Of course, Nikki was too young to really understand any of this but her mother let her dip her ties in the water, by letting Nikki outside to play and then engage in playdates. Everything went fine, but Nikki could never quite develop the social skills that she needed and always felt like the dark secret of the Watanabe family.

When Nikki was old enough and she got a good enough handle on her abilities, she was finally allowed to go out and she joined a youth soccer league. It was really helped Nikki develop her love of soccer and sports, but she still felt like an outcast. Things were looking up until they started looking down; Nikki was unfortunately targetted by a child predator while waiting for her mom to pick her up from soccer. He just saw her by herself, came up, yanked her, and tried to get her into his van - and I say tried because all those barriers, training, and guards, suddenly came crashing down when she summoned the swarm subconsciously and they all attacked him. Millions of insects all over his body, scratching, biting, stinging... he was dead in seconds, yet they kept attacking him. Nikki herself curled into a ball as the swarm attacked anybody that got too close to her.

FAMA came in and eventually they managed to get a collar on her and managed to rescue Nikki... and after this event, she was put under close supervision by FAMA. For starters, she was collared, which should have been done way sooner but FAMA is hesitant with collaring people. Then she was put through some intensive therapy sessions following the incident - and for a time, she was placed in a special Academy program to help her get a grasp on he powers. It wasn't really a good place or time for Nikki, being treated like a dog that just bit someone! Eventually, she got through the program and she was allowed to go home... except, she had to wear the collar at all times.

It was a really dehumanizing time for Nikki and she definitely fell into the shadows... but she took this time to make herself something. To never let that incident happen again... and the first step that she took was to take some martial arts lessons - and eventually, she fell onto Krav Maga. They didn't exactly respond too well to a Deltahuman in their class, but they warmed up to her. They just loved how much work she put into the place compared to anybody else and they could tell that she was passionate about it. Because she was - martial art was a new experience for the girl, and every day after school she was allowed to go to the lessons.

Her only relief was her cousin: Amanda Blackmore. You see, Pamela had a sister named Lisa who she... didn't get along with. So interactions between the two families were limited to huge family functions, at best. At those family functions, she met Amanda and they got along despite the two families' destain for each other! Nikki and Amanda bounced off each other, Nikki was laid back and calm, Amanda was loud, spastic, and impulsive. Amanda was pretty much her only friend for a few years because she too was a Deltahuman - a power replicator.

That said, after her mental health was cleared, it was determined that it might be best for Nikki to attend a public school again. With some convincing, Nikki was finally allowed to go to public school. Though, maybe it wasn't the best with the collar around her neck, because it was just an indicator that she was a Deltahuman. She was bullied, just for a short time, because after it got physical... well, Nikki got physical and that was the end of that.

However, Amanda pressed Nikki to get the collar taken off, and that was a difficult task given that she lost control and killed somebody. However, after she was cleared mentally again, she was allowed to go out with her collar off. It was liberating to finally be free from that oppressive device! With the help of Amanda, she was allowed to get comfortable with her ability and she finally stopped fearing it. Instead, she began to use the power as a tool... a weapon.

Then she got talked into a stupid idea.

Looking back, Nikki thought that it was insanely crazy but Amanda convinced her to go out and be a vigilante out in the streets of Black Fall! So, Nikki made up a crazy costume for herself and the two cousins went out and did vigilante work. As in going out and beating up criminals, and often they'd be found in massive web cocoons or beaten up. It went well... for about a month, that was when they ran into a criminal named the Desert Scorpion. You see, the Desert Scorpion was a chromatic Deltahuman thug and dealer that had the ability to transform into a scorpion monster and turn the area around him into a harsh desert that he could manipulate. His shell was too hard for Amanda's ability to crack, and Nikki had a hard time getting her bugs through his sandstorm. It was a war of attrition that ended with Nikki passing out and fortunately Amanda was able to replicate his ability so she survived the heat.

He fled when FAMA showed up... but they had a lot of explaining to do and Nikki felt awfully stupid when she woke up. She was ready to be tossed in jail, or at the very least get another power collar put on her until she was eighteen, but she got cut a deal: Attend the Academy Program and not go to prison! It was a deal that Nikki gladly took... however, when she was going there, the Verthaven disaster occurred and things changed a lot for Deltahumans. She wasn't there to experience it firsthand but she knew shit was getting ugly, but she had a great time in Academy 002. It was where she had some of her defining moments and became the person that she was today.

However, when she hit twenty, her time in the Academy was over and she decided to go FAMA and give back to the community. Though it was a lot of paperwork, psyche-evals, and waivers - fortunately, her time in the Academy has helped her case a lot. It took a while but eventually, Nikki was allowed to join FAMA and she was whisked away to their special training program. She came out a prime agent and then Nikki was pinballed around the country, from place to place, facing off against the Tyrants, REAPER, Allegiance, and any other Deltahuman threats and proved herself to be the best agent.

Chromatic (Blue/White)

Swarm-Summoning⫻ The primary piece of Nikki's power; the ability to rapidly summon a swarm of insects out of thin air and dispel them at will. In a three-foot radius around herself, Nikki can summon thousands of insects in mere seconds. This summoning will cause a sudden growth and appearance of insects that can be closely compared to an explosion. She summons a completely random assortment of insects from bees, beetles, cockroaches, etc, etc, and she can kind of influence it towards a certain type - such as flying insects or bigger insects. What she can influence is how they appear as she can make them form constructs - such as a ladder or a wall of insects. Using this ability, she can form bridges, barriers, and weapons (even though that's redundant) out of insects - or she can just spray them all over the place and create a swarm.

Entomopathy⫻ Now, Nikki has a mental link with all insects in a nine-meter radius around herself. This mental link tells her where the insect is, what type of insect it is, and how is it's health - but that isn't the true nature of the ability; as it's the ability to mentally dominate insects within her range. She can make these insects do anything that she wants them to do, even stuff that goes against their nature, long as she is controlling them. She has such fine control that she can make the insects do whatever she wants with just a command and have them multitask. However, one unique ability that Nikki has is that she can channel these insect senses and sense what they can sense. An insect's senses are a bit hazy, and hard for a human being to translate into their senses (which would be alien) but she can kind of pick up sound and vision. Smell and other senses? Yeah, no. There seems to be a subconscious aspect to this ability as, at times, it'll activate on its own to fulfill her desire. She has learned to control this but at times it seeps when she loses her temper or she is stressed.

The primary limiter to Nikki's ability is a range... she can summon insects around three feet away from her and control them in a nine-meter dome around herself. She can probably be defeated by someone who can simply outrange or even outmaneuver her, but if you get in range of her swarm, you're fucked. Summoning the insects is a huge drain on her stamina, and constantly summoning them will knock her out. She can summon about a ten-thousand before they start to wear down on her stamina, and manipulating them also is a drain on her stamina. Nikki can control as many insects that are within her range, however, the more insects that she's controlling, the less refined control that she has over them. Eventually, she'll just be sending in one order to the swarm and they'll follow it - no individual control over each one.

Nikki has a mental connection to the insects that she controls, and if they get killed it'll send a mental backlash to Nikki. One that can cause intense, nosebleed inducing, headaches, and possibly knock her out. Now, her insects are tough to kill by conventional means, but poison, area of effect attacks, heat/cold, and other such things will take out a huge swarm really fast and leave her vulnerable. Besides, controlling a massive swarm is straining, and can cause the same effects mentioned before if she cuts loose.

Nothing to note.

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, the 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 complemented 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 and he should have gone to the dentist more. Regardless, the Blackmore Family has great genes.

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 resistance, acid resistant, isolation, 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.

Many words could be used to describe Drake Blackmore. Many people settle on terms such as "stupid", "jackass", and "egotistical". He likes to call himself confident to a fault because that's all he exhumes, pure confidence and energy that'd get him through the toughest of all times. This confidence and energy of his have gotten him into plenty of trouble because he doesn't know when to stop and he let it become arrogance. However, Drake was raised in a very moral household where the Blackmore siblings were taught concepts like kindness and compassion. While the kid is an arrogant jackass he still has the best interest in heart for everyone around him and wants to help people any way he can. And that's one thing he's passionate about. Yeah, he has a hero complex. However, the death of his father only a few years ago has certainly gotten to Drake. He wonders what's the point of doing anything and is really starting to realize he's a little fish in a really big pond.

FAMA Training ⫻ 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.

Basketball ⫻ 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.

Hand-to-Hand Combat ⫻ 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 fistfights, especially when people sling superpowers around.

Social-Butterfly ⫻ 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.

Metahumans ⫻ 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.

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 agent 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 on it.

Drake was the last of the Blackmore siblings to actually manifest and the possibilities were endless. Throughout the years, he has used various 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 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 since 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.

Type-Chromatic (Green-Yellow)

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 element, 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 incorporate 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:



Form-Merging.


▼ LIMITS:


▼ WEAKNESSES:

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.

At first glance, Farrah has a stick shoved so far up her rear end you would think she has never broken a single rule in her life. That couldn't be further from the truth. In the civilian world, she carries herself with an almost dignified air about her, a certain level of poise and control with OCD undercurrents. But out on the field, the true Farrah takes over - a ball of suppressed rage and anger itching for an excuse to let go, let loose.

Although she is no model, her exotic features lend to a unique beauty about her. Polished copper skin, almond-shaped eyes the color of dark honey, and raven black hair. One of her favorite and prominent features are her thick eyebrows, which she only lets one trusted technician pluck once a week, if time permits. She's of average height and weight, but don't let her lithe body fool you. A strict gym workout regiment, martial arts class, and diet keeps her in top athletic shape. A decent bust, thin hips with a more than generous trunk in keeping with her Latina blood.

Farrah has several scars on her back, left upper arm, and left thigh, where another Metahuman blasted her during a mission. She let her left side take the brunt of it, thinking she could withstand it but was gravely mistaken. She has no tattoos or other piercings except her ears. She keeps a clean appearance when at all possible and chooses skin tone and minute makeup keeping a more natural look.

I hear pantsuits are back in fashion. Farrah is a woman with a taste for the finer things in life, and her day to day wardrobe matches that. Her closet is stocked with fitted, designer earth-tone suits, high heels, and an array of color-coordinated jewelry to accessorize. Her favorite season is winter, when she can pull out her extensive collection of long coats and jackets. Born an island girl, Farrah is extremely familiar with Caribbean fashion and usually pulls out one or two colorful long summer dresses when visiting her extended family.

During active duty, Farrah's wardrobe does a complete 180. Forgoing the fashionable suits and heels for tactical gear and steel-toe boots. While on base, she will dress much like a man: jeans and cargo pants with plain or wrinkled button-up shirts and her lucky gray cuffed jacket. Its become a sort of tradition that she must wear that jacket at all times. The only time while on base she doesn't wear it is when showering, sleeping, or wearing her combat gear.

Combat gear is comprised of standard FAMA issued black tactical gear. Vest, kneepads, shinguards, gloves, a kneck wrap she can pull up to cover the bottom half of her face, and a helmet with a retractable visor - underneath it all, she wears UnderArmor spandex. In terms of weapons, her primary is an M4A1 Carbine and a 4th Generation Glock 17 as a sidearm, holstered at the thigh instead of the waist, and a tactical knife.

Farrah is a thoughtful tactician perfecting every detail of life with a rationality mindset to everything she does. Medically-diagnosed as OCD, Farrah strives to control every aspect of her life. Running her personal life at a tight schedule, with a disciplined diet, workout regiment, and even a set bedtime. This level of control helps her stay stable and gives her a false sense of order. She is well aware that life is nothing but chaos, yet the thought of living her day to day unplanned brings her anxiety. This need for impulsive control comes from her childhood, where her life was anything but in her control. However, the older she gets the more she is coming to understand that not everything needs to be planned, scheduled, and controlled and that if she lets go the world isn't going to just come to a crashing halt.

Farrah is a walking contradiction. One hand, she's all about control, and if you are an acquaintance or a stranger that is all you will ever see. "Stuck up bitch" has been used more than a couple times to describe her and she toes the line of being cynical about human nature, assuming that most people are lazy, self-interested, and doomed to mediocrity. She is quick to judge and slow to please. Quick to point out your faults and slow to praise you. Is an advent believer in hard work and earning your spot. She shows respect to those that have proven themselves worthy of such respect and only follows those that she deems worthy of following. She can come off as arrogant and overly critical.

She can seem single-minded with little patience for gossip or distractions but she is far from dull. A quick tongue and irreverent wit combined with a dark, sarcastic sense of humor stir just under the surface of her serious exterior.

On the other hand, to those she has allowed into her inner circle, she's a rational, determined, independent, and caring individual. She is ambitious and goal-oriented. Whenever an idea or pursuit captures her imagination she will dedicate herself to mastering the subject or gaining relevant skills. She has a strong and clear vision of what it means to be successful in her world, and few things deter her from striving for that vision of success.
She is utterly clueless when it comes to romantics. The few times she's tried dating she's approached it like she does all other challenges, strategically. A checklist and clear-cut goals with a plan for hitting those goals. Unfortunately, she is learning that a rational approach to love is not the answer, but she still has a lot to learn and a lot of control to relinquish when it comes to matters of the heart.

As a Capricorn, she may be stubborn and ignorant when it comes to love, but she has no problem being a slight freak in the bed. If you are lucky enough to get invited, that is.

"A friend to all is a friend to none." - Aristotle.

Her circle of friends is small and that's how Farrah likes it. She is selective with people she lets in pass a certain "professional" point, but to those that are privy to a real friendship with her have a dedicated and loyal individual rooting for them at every turn. When around those that she's close with, Farrah can drop down her walls and be a little more spontaneous. She can be persuaded to skip her bedtime and go out for a round of drinks, don't get it twisted; she will be the first to say goodbye and leave promptly at 12:30 am after having nurse her one or second drink all night.

However, on the battlefield, Solaris is an entirely different monster altogether. Focused, alert, and with a predator-like mind, she is straight as an arrow; just aim her at a target and release. If in her civilian life, Farrah is the webster definition of uptight, in the field is where she lets it all go allowing herself to fall into that anger and darkness that is always lurking just beyond the surface. At least in the field, she has targets where to direct all that anger instead of self-destructing.

She is far from unstable, but FAMA has still flagged her as a potential risk. She's been attending what was at first mandatory meetings with a FAMA psychiatrist for years and now has turned into weekly voluntary sessions.

At the heart of it all, Farrah is an only child raised by a single mother who passed away at an early age. She had a tough childhood, maturing at an extremely young age. She's had to dig deep to pull herself up without help from anyone, which has turned her into someone who doesn't rely on others. She'd rather go at it alone than to ultimately be let down by someone else.

Solaris has gone through rigorous FAMA and Combat training. Learning extensive hand-to-hand combat skills, including martial arts like krav maga, jeet kune do, and Brazillian jiu-jitsu, and learning to fight with improvised weapons. Concurrently, she's also received formal training in conventional firearms and tactical training.

Farrah can speak three languages fluently: English, Spanish, Hindi. She learned English and Spanish simultaneously growing up in Puerto-Rico with her Latina mother and at the age of eight started to learn Hindi given it was her father's native language as a way to foster a relationship with him, which ultimately failed.

One of the only extra-curricular activities Farrah's mother could afford to put her in was piano lessons. She hated it as a child but stuck with it because her mother wouldn't have it any other way. After her mother's death, she found a new love for it and continues to play in her memory.

Farrah was born to Puerto-Rican deltahuman mother Cynthia Govea and Indian-American father Braajah Krishna, a product of a union that was doomed to fail from the start. You see, they met in New York when both were young, Cynthia only being 18 at the time and Braajah 20. It was a hot, passionate, and sex-filled summer fling between them with Braajah going along for the ride and Cynthia getting wrapped up in feelings for the man. At the end of the summer, Braajah broke the news that his family had arranged for him to marry an Indian woman later that year. Devastated, Cynthia tried to move on with her life but quickly after discovered that she was pregnant, but by then Braajah didn't want anything to do with her or the alleged pregnancy.

Cynthia returned to Puerto Rico, where she gave birth to Farrah and raised the child on her own how best she could, but with a drug addict of a mother, no father that she knew off, and poor education, it was more of a challenge than she imagined. Forced to work two minimum wage jobs to keep a roof over their heads and some food in their bellies, left Cynthia exhausted and with little to give in the form of affection and love. Still, she was doing all she could to provide for Farrah, even going as far as prostitution when work was hard to come by. Despite their impoverished status, Cynthia tried her best to shield Farrah from it, sacrificing sweat, health, and body to pay for private schools - determined that Farrah would have a better education than she did. Cynthia was a strict and overbearing mother, expecting and demanding excellence in all things. Looking back, Farrah understands that her mother was just afraid she would turn out just like her and wanted a better life for her daughter.

Cynthia never spoke ill of Braajah, at least not to her anyway, and with a child's naivety, Farrah assumed that if she learned Hindi, that would be enough to make her father have some minute interest in her. Farrah spent her free time, of which there was precious little of, practicing on her piano, learning Hindi, reading books, and helping her mother in anything from cooking and cleaning to tagging along on odd jobs for a little extra cash. She didn't have time for friends outside of school hours, and even then she felt different from many of the other children. Most of their home lives sounded happy and full of joy and nothing like hers. By age 12, the private schooling had stopped as it had become too much of a financial strain for Cynthia, who had fallen ill and shortly after was diagnosed with aids. With her mother sick and unable to provide for their little family of two, Farrah had to grow up exceptionally early to help take care of her mother while attending public school.

Outwardly, Farrah was a dutiful daughter. Attending school and immediately after rushing to work illegal and under the table jobs, not coming home until late at night to cook and take care of a dying mother because there was not enough money for medicine. Inwardly, she became resentful, hateful, and full of anger. Angry at her father, angry at her mother, angry at the world. Going through puberty, taking care of Cynthia and watching her slowly wither was a stressful period in her life. To add to it, it was this point her powers started to manifest. By 14, she was stretched so thin she was ready to snap on anyone that said the slightest wrong thing about her or her mother. She ended up getting in more than a few fights in school with other girls, many of which came out with broken noses, teeth, or worse. At the time, she just chucked it up to her anger fueling her with such rage that it gave her some strength over the other girls and even boys she got into brawls. It became apparent that it was more than just strength filled by anger.

Cynthia was classified as a Type-Red Deltahuman, able to absorb solar energy and convert it into producing fire, and her genes had been passed down to Farrah.
Farrah dropped her piano lessons and used that time to practice and hone her ability in hopes that she could turn some profit out of it and hopefully buy her mother the medicine she desperately needed. The universe seemed to have other plans because by the time she had a somewhat sturdy handle on her power, her mother passed away.

For the next year, Farrah was a wreck of a teen. Grades tanked, fighting skyrocketed, and she began to get tangled with the wrong kind of people. If it hadn't been for a caring teacher who took pity on her, Farrah would have indeed ended on FAMA's delinquent list. The teacher set her straight, voicing that this path was not the one her mother wanted for her. When the Academy Program had just finished building Academy 004 off the Caribbean coast, the teacher convinced her to apply. She was accepted and one short plane ride later her new life started.

It was tough at first to find her footing. In Puerto Rico, the little self-training that she had done had been enough to get her by. Mostly just bulldozing and surprising people with her strength. But she quickly came to realize on her first year that she was entirely out of her league at the academy and had a lot of training and catching up to do if she was ever to make anything out of herself. And so she buckled and doubled down refusing to end up just like her grandmother and mother. With guidance from the teachers and staff members, she learned to use her anger to drive and push her forward, to focus on what she wanted, and then go after it with determination and precision...as long as it was a worthwhile and positive goal. It was at the academy that she discovered she was capable of more than just being strong.

After graduating from the academy at 18, she immediately applied to be an agent in FAMA that very same day. Afraid that if she stopped to catch her breath, whatever determination and focus was driving her forward would falter and she would lose her way. By 20, she was instated into FAMA as an agent, spending two years at a time stationed in different locations where she may be of use. To keep herself busy outside of work, and now that she had a surplus of money, she got her bachelor's and is now working towards her masters.

Chromatic (Yellow/Red)

Farrah's ability allows her body to absorb and store solar energy passively. She has no control over her body absorbing the energy as it happens subconsciously. The energy stored in her body allows for her health to be in robust conditions, preventing her from falling ill to a multitude of general illnesses and viruses, such as: Flu, Common Cold, Covid-19, etc. However, it doesn't prevent her from being poison or fighting off rapid and aggressive or even Deltahuman created infections. Actively, she can transfer stored energy and utilize it in different forms classified as sub-set abilities.

Sub-set Abilities ⫻
Enhanced Strength & Durability - This is her bread and butter during any combat. Farrah can direct the stored energy to reinforce her body, skin, muscles, and bones to have durability far beyond that of a regular human, withstand a direct hit from a speeding car with no injury. This resilience also allows her to perform greater feats of strength without injuring herself. She posses physical strength far beyond that of a regular human, especially notable regarding her size and muscle mass. She can exert something akin to the combined strength of six men, able to lift around 380lbs comfortably and about a maximum of 500lbs if she strains herself.

Flight - Farrah is able to fly, though she has never mastered this ability. Instead, she can propel herself off a surface and through the air at various speeds and altitudes. She's able to jump several stories to reach rooftops, fire escapes, and balconies. There's still speculation on whether this is just another skill derived from her enhanced strength and because of her durability able to land/fall without injury.

Solar Blasts - In times of dire duress, Farrah has been able to direct all energy to a focal point (she's only ever done it from her hands) and expel that energy in a concentrated visible blast of raw energy. This feat, however, quickly depletes her energy stores and leaves her in a weakened state for some time until she's been able to recharge.

First and foremost, Farrah's powers, aside from passively storing energy, require her to consciously activate them and then stay focused enough to keep them "on". Secondly, her body can only store so much energy at any given time. There hasn't been a scientific measurement yet, but she's never gone more than 18-22 minutes maximum with her powers uninterruptedly on. This is a huge strain on her body and mind as it requires her to stay mentally focused on staying on, and while staying on is constantly consuming energy. In other words, she's good at short bursts of fighting, prolonged periods of conflict will drain her to exhaustion. Thirdly, Solar Blasts takes everything she got from concentration to energy. This level of requirement means that her other abilities (strength and durability) are off while she's charging, during, and after the blast.

Aside from the dangers of ashing, she needs a constant flow of solar energy or she gradually becomes weaker and frail. The longest time she has gone without direct sunlight contact has been 6 days. By that mark, she experienced serious side effects such as: Liver problems, severe heartache, frail bones, lethargy, skin, hair, and eye discoloration. As well as having no spare energy to activate her powers. It's estimated that 9-12 days without any sunlight, she dies. As she absorbs solar energy, all these side effects are cured and she goes back to prime status.

If you are an opponent looking to take advantage, then the best time to pick a fight with Solaris is in the middle of the night. Her body is in a constant state of eating energy. Although during the day she can keep topped off on a regular at night, her body doesn't stop consuming energy. However, there is no sunlight to replenish said consumed energy, so there is no energy to activate her powers. In other words, come night time Solaris is just another regular human - powerless. (She still knows how to fight though, so there is that.)

Just a lil' section to throw anything here that doesn't fit into the other sections.
