She is a student peer guide working to support the younger students transition into the college life and be an informal source of help or even a listening ear for those that need it. In addition, Krista is also a member of Evelyn Harding's band East of Eden as their violinist as well as working as a music tutor in a local high school in NYC (Tues, Wed, Thurs after-school hours) to earn some money on the side. Krista has done internships with Chemolition in the past, allowing her to improve her skills in stealth, martial arts and reconnaissance, as well as helping her control how much energy she exerts while using her abilities.[/sup][/center] [center][center][sup][h3][color=598073]███████████████████[/color] [color=black]Living Arrangements  [/color] [color=B0AC96]Living Arrangements[/color][/h3][/sup][/center] [sup]The Towers at Crystal Lake Commons [url=https://i.pinimg.com/originals/cb/db/cb/cbdbcbf41df644edd99142791bb11810.jpg]Room TBA[/url][/sup][/center][/cell] [/row][/table] [center][sub][h1][color=598073]███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████[/color] [color=B0AC96]𝓟𝓸𝔀𝓮𝓻𝓼[/color][/h1][/sub][/center] [color=2e2c2c]▅[/color] [i][sub]Perception is the way one experiences the world through their senses. It involves recognising the stimuli and organising it in existing patterns that can be interpreted in a response to the stimuli. There are three stages to the perception process - stimuli, organisation and interpretation. Krista's ability disrupts the interpretation process, halting the brain's ability to evaluate and explain the stimulus properly and accurately. This allows Krista to make someone misinterpret the stimuli in whatever way she wants. Contrary to elementary teaching, humans have more than five senses. Krista's ability allows her to manipulate the perception of anything that requires a sensory receptor to process stimuli. This means that she can manipulate the perception of: [center][color=598073]⚝[/color] Vision [color=598073]⚝[/color] Hearing [color=598073]⚝[/color] Olfactory (Smell) [color=598073]⚝[/color] Gustatory (Taste) [color=598073]⚝[/color] Somatic (Touch, pain, temperature and pressure) [color=598073]⚝[/color][/center] [center] [color=598073]⚝[/color] Proprioception (Body awareness, coordination and spatial orientation) [color=598073]⚝[/color] Vestibular (Balance, gravity and body movement)[color=598073]⚝[/color][/center][/sub][/i] [table][row][sup][h3][b] [color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅ [right]▅▅▅▅▅▅[/right][/color] [/b][/h3][/sup][/row][row] [/row][row][cell][color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color] [center][sup][h3][color=598073]███████████████[/color] [color=black]Ability  [/color] [color=B0AC96]Ability[/color][/h3][/sup] [center][color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅[/color] [color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅[/color] [hider=Illusions]Krista can create an illusion by completely blocking the interpretation of a sense and interjecting with whatever she wants it to be. She can cause targets to see, hear, touch, smell, taste and/or process kinesthesia differently from what they are. The illusions can appear realistic depending on the senses she uses. They can be anywhere from feeling solid and interactable to sounds that are so lifelike you could have sworn it really happened. Currently, Krista is only capable of creating illusions using up to two senses at a time without immediately draining her energy. While she can [i]technically[/i] create complex illusions using all the senses, it will not last very long due to the energy it will take. Creating illusions take up a lot of energy and concentration to maintain, particularly if she wants the illusions to remain believable. These illusions are also temporary and will dissolve if you or she leaves the area of effect. [hider=Perception Tricking] Krista can trick the brain into thinking a sense that hasn't been stimulated is now receiving information by hijacking the brain's perception processing. This is the basis of her illusion capability. Some examples of this ability includes mirroring somebody's vision so things appear inverted, mimicing the voice of someone else and tricking someone into feeling pain that does not exist. Krista typically incorporates illusions into her fighting by creating duplicates of herself, creating a sense of disorientation (through the proprioceptors) or making the environment around a target smell unpleasant as a form of distraction. These illusions are quick and simple, something that allows Krista to take control of the battle and create openings.[/hider][/hider] [hider=Perception Augmentation]Krista can manipulate the perception of certain senses to either amplify (make the brain think the sensation is more intense than it actually is) or negate the sensations entirely. These senses have already been triggered in an individual, and Krista is only adjusting the reaction to the stimulus by making the brain believe the sensation is either greater or lesser than it really is. [hider=Sensory Amplification]Krista is capable of boosting the sensitivity to certain stimulus to make herself or her target improve their senses. Application for this ability include enhanced sense of smell for excellent tracking or enhanced haptic sense to make someone feel the vibrations of someone's movement. This ability only boosts the efficiency of existing receptors. The senses will be boosted to peak human level, or beyond depending on the [abbr=People with the ability to manipulate their body to create better sensory receptors akin to animals]person[/abbr] she is using this ability on. [/hider] [hider=Sensory Overload]Through her amplification ability, Krista can overload her opponent's senses by amplifying the perception of a sense to hinder her opponent. There are three stages of her ability: Stage one allows Krista to amplify up to two sensations at a time (usually vision and hearing) which can temporarily overwhelm someone and allow Krista to restrain them. Stage two allows Krista to amplify up to four senses at a time which requires more energy and control to maintain. Krista has only just started training for stage two and thus does not have full control over this yet, as a result she is more likely to slip up and cause others within her range (herself included) senses to be overloaded. Stage three is the final stage where Krista can theoretically amplify [i]all[/i] the senses at once. She has only managed to successfully do this once, but Krista lost all form of control and everything within her range (herself included) were impacted by the overload - causing herself to pass out from the over-stimulation. Later, it took Krista a week to recover and her sensory processes to return to normal. [/hider] [hider=Sensory Negation]Krista can do multiple sensory deprivation similarly to the overload. It has a similar stage system based on the number of senses, except the final stage ensures herself or the target becoming the equivalent of a vegetable - unable to process any sensory input entirely. At its basic form, Krista will typically use this against people whose abilities work using vision or (for support) negate the feeling of pain (does not stop the pain though) in her allies. Final stage of this ability will leave both herself and anyone in her area of effect in a vegetative state.[/hider][/hider] [hider=Neuroplasticity]The brain is capable of recategorising and growing its neural networks in order to adapt to a new environment or change in the brain. As long as the senses themselves are fine, Krista is capable of manipulating how the brain reacts to stimulus in two ways: through substitution or through inducing synesthesia. [hider=Sensory Substitution]Circumventing the loss of one sense by translating it to another so a stimulus can still be perceived. This only works as long as the receptors that detect senses still works, as Krista's ability only impacts the interpretation within the brain's different areas. For example, a blind person within her range will be able to sense someone around them through haptic or sounds which can then be perceived by the visual area of the brain to tell someone that there is something present.[/hider] [hider=Synesthesia]Synesthesia is a neurological condition which causes the brain to process stimuli in the form of several senses at once. As Krista's ability naturally manipulates the brain's interpretation of senses, Krista can mimic this process and induce synesthesia in herself or others within her range. Some forms of triggered synesthesia include [abbr=Associating written letters and numbers as colours]grapheme-colour[/abbr] and [abbr=associating sound/music with colours]chromesthesia[/abbr] to support her memory during learning. Recently she has started training to apply mirror touch synesthesia for offensive purposes, but has yet to obtain full control over the skill.[/hider][/hider] [color=2e2c2c]▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ [sup]▅▅[/sup][/color] [hider=Stealth]Krista uses her ability to completely mask herself in her environment, making herself imperceptible to the human eye to navigate an area within her range. Her supe suit has been designed in a way to completely absorb any sound so as to not use more energy than necessary. In this masked form, Krista can sneak up to an opponent and take them on with the element of surprise on her side. In battle, Krista will hide herself in her environment and use her ability in numerous ways. She may create realistic auditory illusions to lure people to an area she feels she can best control, then take them by surprise and use a combination of her ability and her capture gun to subdue an opponent without harm. As she is not a physically strong combatant, she needs to maintain her distance and avoid getting hurt, as well as make sure to finish the battle before her ability eats up all her energy.[/hider][/center] [/center][/cell][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/19d9fXP.png[/img][/center] [center][color=2e2c2c]▅▅[/color][sup][h3][color=598073]███████████████[/color] [color=black]Combat  [/color] [color=B0AC96]Combat[/color][/h3][/sup] [color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅[/color] [color=2e2c2c][sup]▅▅▅▅[/sup][/color] [hider=Capture Gun] Thanks to Abaddon Blackwell, Krista was able to commission a capture gun that is attached to her wrist. This gun carries up to ten nets that have been tightly bundled up which are launched at a press of a button. The capture gun shoots these nets at a fast speed and force to trap an opponent in place. These nets are made of tough wire and are weighed down so to be difficult to lift and duck under. When launched, these nets start to constrict so to restrain the movement of the individual inside the net. Krista has trained her strength to be able to maintain her speed and endurance despite a heavy gun attached to her wrist. Furthermore, she has trained her aim so as to not waste her nets during a battle. This can be boosted with her ability as she can amplify her senses to make perceiving a moving target easier.[/hider] [/center][color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅ [/color][/cell][cell][color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color] [center][sup][h3][color=598073]███████████████[/color] [color=black]Limitations  [/color] [color=B0AC96]Limitations[/color][/h3][/sup] [center][color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅[/color] [color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅[/color] [hider=Energy]Energy and endurance is the key to Krista's ability. Her powers require constant, active control from Krista's part to ensure that she is getting the outcome she desires which eats up at her energy. Certain abilities may require more or less energy - for example, creating illusions take more energy than sensory amplification or negation as creating illusions requires Krista to insert her own interpretation of the environment (creating something complex and detailed so the illusion is believable). Even within her range Krista's effectiveness can be limited. The closer you are to her range limit, the easier it is to dismiss her illusions or effects. Overuse of Krista's ability can lead to consequences for herself. When she is approaching her limit, symptoms may start with painful headaches, disorientation and eventually fatigue. Continuing to use her ability beyond this point can lead to loss of consciousness and temporary [abbr=a condition that affects how her brain will react to stimuli - her own processing ability will be botched during the recovery period and may manifest in different ways each time.]sensory processing difficulties[/abbr] upon waking up (duration depending on the level of exhaustion).[/hider] [hider=Multiple Senses Simultaneously]Currently, Krista can only manage to manipulate up to two senses at a time for an extended duration. Trying to manipulate more than two is possible, however it takes up a lot of energy that Krista does not have and she reaches her limits faster the more senses she manipulates at once. She still needs to train her control over more senses, as losing this control will mean potentially harming or influencing the wrong individual within her area of effect.[/hider] [hider=Quality Of Illusions]If Krista is creating an illusion and not amplifying the sense, she will need to focus entirely to ensure that the illusion is realistic. Losing concentration will lead to the illusions breaking down before she is ready. Visual illusions may stutter or lose details like shadows that make it easier to recognise as a illusion, or auditory illusions may sound 'wrong'. Additionally, Krista cannot create a realistic illusion of something she has never experienced herself before. She can attempt to do so, but it will only be guess work and the target whose sense is being manipulated may be able to see through the illusion if they know what she is trying to emulate is wrong.[/hider] [color=2e2c2c]▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ ▅▅ [sup]▅▅[/sup][/color] [hider=Martial Arts]Krista's main weakness is that she heavily relies on her abilities to keep her safe. In instances where she has no choice but to step closer without her abilities, Krista trained with Chemolition in the past to utilise martial arts for self defense purposes. Krista primarily uses Krav Maga, a self defensive fighting technique that utilises various styles as well as has a focus on quickly neutralising a threat. While Kirsta has some skill in Krav Maga, as she has developed such an over-reliance on her ability her skills are not on par with any other individual good in physical combat. However, martial arts combined with her abilities? She gives herself a decent chance against opponents that are more skilled than her in combat.[/hider] [/center][/center][/cell][/row][/table] [center][sub][h1][color=598073]███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████[/color] [color=B0AC96]𝓢𝓽𝓾𝓭𝓮𝓷𝓽 𝓣𝓮𝓶𝓹𝓮𝓻𝓪𝓶𝓮𝓷𝓽[/color][/h1][/sub][/center] [table][row][sup][h3][b] [color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅ [right]▅▅▅▅▅▅[/right][/color][/b][/h3][/sup] [/row][row] [cell][center][center] [color=2e2c2c]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color] [sup][h3][color=598073]███████████████[/color] [color=black]Personality Traits  [/color] [color=B0AC96]Personality Traits[/color][/h3][/sup][/center] [sup][color=598073]⚝[/color] Charming & Cheerful [color=598073]⚝[/color] [color=598073]⚝[/color] Idealistic & Faithful [color=598073]⚝[/color] [color=598073]⚝[/color] Frugal & Maternal [color=598073]⚝[/color] [color=598073]⚝[/color] Gullible & Impulsive [color=598073]⚝[/color] [color=598073]⚝[/color] Shortsighted & Zany [color=598073]⚝[/color][/sup][/center] [center][center][sup][h3][color=598073]███████████████[/color] [color=black]Appearance  [/color] [color=B0AC96]Appearance[/color][/h3][/sup][/center] [sup][color=598073]⚝[/color] Almond, blue-green eyes [color=598073]⚝[/color] [color=598073]⚝[/color] Shoulder length, straight blonde hair usually left down [color=598073]⚝[/color] [color=598073]⚝[/color] 161.7cm (5"3'), slim and petite frame [color=598073]⚝[/color] [color=598073]⚝[/color] Attire consisting of thrifted gems, typically wearing [url=https://64.media.tumblr.com/c4c7d60ceea9013e3a17ea5218c5c76f/0a3d6ecce6c05245-3b/s250x250_c1/82ab9ced732358acef6852cc2c6054b294c18783.gif]jeans[/url] or [url=https://i.pinimg.com/736x/11/ca/91/11ca910b68a130b08be842f2e132af53.jpg]skirts[/url] with [url=https://64.media.tumblr.com/b9c7f84dc0694055c176add669acd9bc/tumblr_p47f93RvQu1tnjjm8o9_r1_250.gif]neutral tops[/url].

It had been a whirlwind romance, sweeping Claudia off her feet with sweet nothings and gifts worth more than her annual paycheck. The only condition? They had to remain a secret. [i]"It's for your own safety,"[/i] Norman promised, worried about any enemies trying to get to him through Claudia. Head over heels, Claudia ignored the feeling in her gut and believed in Norman, thinking that they had their whole lives ahead of them. When Claudia Schafer fell pregnant, the last thing she expected was for Norman to distance himself from her. It took Claudia pushing the matters for Norman to admit that their trysts couldn't continue any longer, that he was engaged to someone else. [i]"Someone who knows my world."[/i] Norman shrugged, and broke her heart in the process. Claudia packed up what little belongings she had brought to America for her studies and returned home to Germany, settling nearer to family for support. She took up a job as a music teacher at the local lower secondary school, saving what money she could while living with her parents till she could afford rent and diapers. Krista was born in early Spring, bringing new light to Claudia's life. The girls were close, and Krista cannot remember a time where she wasn't happy. Their little family of two became three shortly after Krista's fifth birthday, when Claudia met her now husband Deitrich Müller and married just short of Krista's sixth birthday. By Krista's seventh birthday, she had a little brother to look forward to.[/hider] [hider=Adolescence]Growing up, Krista was not always the social butterfly she is today. She struggled in primary school, often too shy or meek to join in with her peers. With her mother being a music teacher, it was impossible for Krista to grow up without learning an instrument, which she eventually settled on the violin as it had been her mother's specialty in her own youth. What little confidence she did have, however, disappeared when she moved on to secondary school. Joining the same school which her mother taught at, Krista found herself often lonely during break and lunch periods. When it was revealed that Krista made the mistake of revealing to her mother about her classmate cheating on an exam, Krista was labeled a snitch amongst her peers and largely left alone if not teased for it. Krista's light came in the form of Arnold "Arno" Bauer, transferring to her class in the ninth grade. The two grew to be best friends thanks to their mutual appreciation for classical music and playing in the school band together. The loneliness Krista felt before was suddenly tolerable, and Krista found her reason to smile and grow to be the person she is today. When Arno announced that he was planning on attending Crystal Peak one day, Krista decided she would join her best friend. He had been her inspiration to become a hero, to provide those feeling hopeless a reason to smile. The two trained hard together, honing their physical strength and abilities to be on par with Crystal Peak's standards. When it was time to make their application, they submitted it together. Krista wholeheartedly believed that their training would mean something and that they would flourish in Crystal Peak together. Everything was finally going well until it wasn't. Krista's application to Crystal Peak had been successful but yet Arno had been turned away. Not even an offer to go to Crystal Peak's sister school came his way, breaking both their hearts in the process. Krista arrived in New York, carrying not only her luggage but both her's and Arno's dreams to be the type of hero people could look up to.[/hider] [hider=Crystal Peak]Her first year at Crystal Peak was difficult. It took the great distance between Germany and New York for Krista to realise how much she had come to depend on Arno for everything. To challenge herself, Krista threw herself at any opportunity that came her way. A volunteer position opened up in another department? Krista was there. A temp position opened up at the campus cafeteria? Krista was already serving the burgers. Her first year at Crystal peak was also very eventful. She interned with Chemolition, teaching her ways to utilise her ability in ways Krista had never thought to do. Norman Cypress also made an apperance in Krista's life for the first time in a decade, extending the chance for Krista to meet and get to know her father. The increased presence of Cast Hero proved to be more of an annoyance, and news of her parentage gave birth to the rumour of bribery which still follows Krista around.[/hider] [center][sup][h3][color=598073]███████████████[/color] [color=black]Reputation  [/color] [color=B0AC96]Reputation[/color][/h3][/sup][/center] [sup]Krista takes on the role of a mother-figure, confidant and sister all in one.

Her room at night usually has the curtains and window left open to give her the illusion of space. Above all else Krista wants to be the person that people can turn to for support.
