Epiphany — Roleplayer Guild

Height: 5'6"
Weight: 120 lb

Name: Anzhelika Stepanov

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Personality: Anzhelika has a phlegmatic temperament. Just as she appears, calm and courteous on the exterior, she is also coordinated. Anzhelika is one that attempts to consider the whole situation before making a decision, though based on empathy for the most part (ex. "Because it is the right thing to do, rather than it is fair."). She enjoys the company of others, as it gives her a chance to keep connected with the world around her. Despite her upstanding facade, which one may easily be led to believe, she does not mind quarrels as long as no serious harm is dealt.

Biography: As a child, Anzhelika lived with her mother who could barely pay off their bills, causing her mother to spiral down into a deep depression. Her father was an unknown man and fled at Anzhelika's birth, fearing that he'd have to spend time and money on his new family since they were both very young at the time.
As an only child, she had to do something to pay the bills and buy food for their next meal, so she decided to do street-side shows in Moscow consisting of card tricks, something a beginner magician would do. Secretly, her magic tricks were illusions that she was able to manipulate as a small child. Soon, her magic tricks began to grow in magnitude, and she began to receive massive amounts of money from the people who believed her tricks were actually real.
An academy took notice of her skill and she received an acceptance letter, strange since Anzhelika never filled a form out, though she took the chance anyways.

Powers: The user can create and manipulate illusions, causing people to see, hear, touch, smell and/or taste things which do not actually exist or cause them to perceive things differently from what they truly are. Some users can create complex and detailed worlds, others may be able to only alter the way they or the target are perceived.
Variations:
- Illusion Eye: To project illusions via eyes.
- Mirage Inducing: is a version of Illusion in which the user can generate illusions which last, and are entirely real, as long as the targets do not know that they are illusions. One with this ability could cause any type of illusion they desire, but the second that someone calls out “It’s not real!”, shakes subjects out of their deluded state or the subjects see the illusionist working his power, then the illusions will wear off, entirely (or until the user can go unnoticed to use his ability again).
- Illusive Appearance: Most users who are not exactly combat savvy would use their ability as a defense mechanism to camouflage themselves, and even alter their physical appearance to look like someone or something else.
Limitations:
- Some users are limited to creating illusions that affect only certain senses, sight being the most common as a result people with Enhanced Senses might be able to see through it.
- User may be unable to create accurate illusions, such as making things that don't exist or situations that would never happen in a million years. One common mistake is misplacing a feature on a person, or forgetting to add shadows to their forms.
- Some users might have to limit the amount of mental powers to control the illusion.

Other: She enjoys magic tricks.
