As with the regular comics, Cindy has superhuman strength, agility, stamina, speed, durability. She has a Silk Sense that gives her awareness to things around her even if she can't see. Finally, she is able to produce an organic webbing from her fingertips.[/color][/sup]

[COLOR=darkgray][color=#DC143C][b]◼ SKILL[/b][/color]
Sewing was something she ended up learning to deal with her excessive silk production at the early onset of her powers. When she was in Reach custody, she stitched things by hand out of sheer boredom. Now, however, she has access to better tools and can actually make full costumes. She even made her own![/color][/sup]

Smarts was something that Cindy was appreciative to have because it made her catching up with school a lot easier. She was at least appreciative that the Reach did allow her some teaching, but catching up to high school was simpler than she had thought! In fact, her time in Reach custody had taught her a few more advance things about automation. She did just join the robotics club this year...[/color][/sup]

[COLOR=DARKGRAY][indent]Nine years ago, Cindy Moon was living quite content with her family except for her younger brother always going into her room and ruining just about [i]everything[/i]. At least that's what she remembers that day when she stormed out of the parent's home in upstate New York, the last time she had been with them. She couldn't even remember what she was mad about and why she thought storming outside was a good idea, but she did remember the Reach. Had they been waiting to abduct her or did they just seize the opportunity to?

Cindy couldn't help but curse herself on that fateful night. Something so stupid had resulted in her being taken away into the Reach's custody for almost six years. Her whole life for that time was contained by one little room, all to experience one bite by a spider and the reaction it would have on her. She mutated, genetically altering from that bite to become what she is now. Why had the Reach approached an experiment like this? Where did that spider come from? Was it genetically altered or something from a different planet? It did look like it could be.

The Reach invested time in Cindy to showcase her abilities and experiment with them for years. Looking back, it was possible that this was one approach that a Reach division was attempting to experiment with human genetic malleability, but Cindy wouldn't really be able to be certain. She was far too young to understand, but when her salvation would come, she'd be able to understand something far more important. [i]With great power, comes great responsibility.[/i]

It was Superman that had saved her, and the others that were kept in secret at that facility. She could remember how he effortlessly ripped open that door she had never seen beyond and offered her a hand. She was freed from that room but the life she had known was gone. Cindy would find herself deposited in the nearest city, New York City, with the other victims in that facility. She was passed off to Martin Li, a known philanthropist operating in New York City for many causes but for Cindy's case, New Way was his organization to help runaway teens find a place if they couldn't go back to their old lives. New Way helped her get back into school, helped her find a place to stay and to eventually, hopefully, find her family.

[COLOR=DARKGRAY][INDENT] So with this story backdrop of a tyrannical government, I thought of Silk instantly. Not because that's the only thing I play, either! I thought of how fun it'd be to play an icon behind that kind of NYC resilience and defiance in the face of unpopular and/or aggressive governing motions. I can only imagine NYC displaying their contempt for government overreach against a particular group of people with fairly regular protesting and presenting themselves as an obstacle. Cindy comes in as the young spider-hero this time as a one[s]two[/s]-year veteran, able to build up a rapport with the city. Likely they were skeptical at first but given a year of saving people's butts, she has earned her place for the average New Yorker to respect.

Still a high schooler, Cindy gets to find the joys of trying to juggle classwork, a job, and fighting crime while the city juggles constant patrols, police crackdowns, Agency raids, and the odd supervillain. How long can this last? Who knows, Cindy certainly doesn't. New York City, as a result, might be appealing for the odd superpowered hero to migrate to if they can see past all the propagandized news cycles that state NYC is just fine, no protesting here. Ignore the Silk merchandise booth on the corner of the street.

Any other NYC residents? Feel free to say hi. Cindy doesn't have anyone to lean on at the moment. ;;;;_;;;; [/INDENT][/COLOR][/cell][/row][/table][hr][/COLOR][/INDENT]
