Physical Appearance:Up until Zoe began transitioning, she was growing like any other boy. Right before she hit puberty, her parents placed her on testosterone blockers to keep her from developing male features. The estrogen she starting taking really did her justice. Zoe began transitioning into a beautiful woman as if she was a biological female. She developed curves, fair skin, long silky blonde hair, and full breasts which to her surprise were a perfect size (Since then, she's gone up a cup size after she turned 18.) Her voice sounds like a biological female, unlike some male to female transwomen who decide to transition later in life and have a slight deepness when they speak. Despite the doctors telling her that the process could stunt her growth, she is now a whopping 5’9 bombshell. Both sides of her family are tall so it was only natural she acquired those genes regardless of her transition. Her most notable features are her crisp blue eyes where one could get lost in for days. And to address the elephant in the room: yes, she still has her ‘boy parts’ which she has learned to tuck while in dresses or tight pants. She is due to have her sex reassignment surgery next year.
Attire: Zoë usually wears top of the line designer clothing like Versace, Ralph Lauren, Christian Dior, Louboutin, and many more. Zoe is always up to date with her fashion and wouldn’t be caught dead wearing something out of date. Pink and black are her favorite colors so most of her wardrobe consists of such. The type of clothes she normally wears range between cocktail dresses to a simple short-short and a blouse.
PersonalityInnate & Outward Personality:Zoë can be quite the introvert sometimes. This may be hard to believe due to her expensive looking appearance. After her parents decided to let her transition, Zoë was subjected to nonstop bullying transforming her into a very depressed individual. Often times she had thought about killing herself just to make it stop. These feelings lead her to become very anti-social and awkward. Zoë always had the urge to just hide when she was in a crowd of people, especially if they were looking directly at her. After gaining a special friend, she was taught to stand up for herself and not allow bigotry to ruin her self-worth.
Zoë began to dress to impress and garnered a fuck all attitude about most things. She started to carry herself with more confidence and completely change her personality. Zoë has the tendency to be very vain at times and stare into her makeup mirror too often. Zoë also has a very addictive personality, mostly with makeup and shopping. Also due to the hormone treatment, her emotions are in a start of constant flux. She can go from sweet to bitch in a few seconds without thinking about it. There are times where she does flaunt her money around in people’s faces, making it known that she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. When not acting arrogant, stuck up, and rude, she can be quite the sweetest person. It all depends on her hormone levels that day.
So basically, if there’s something you need to know about Zoë is that she ain’t no basic bitch. Believe me; you don’t want to cross her. She is a leader, someone you’d rather have as your ally than your enemy. She can be very compassionate and nice, but won’t kneel down for anyone. Wherever she goes, she makes heads turn with her dashing looks and strong personality. She doesn’t have to ‘look’ for attention; it always seems to find her.
Hobbies/Interests:There isn’t a time that goes by where she does not want to buy something whether it is in a store or online. Her addictive personality is always tugging at her very being to buy something she doesn’t need or to have the latest things. Zoë is also a stickler to working out and staying healthy. She’s a full blown vegetarian and doesn’t like the taste of meat. With her workout regimen, she’s kept the perfect body. The fashion industry is a huge part of her life, especially in makeup artistry, fashion designing, and modeling.
Skills/Talents: Zoë has artistic ability and loves arts and crafts. She is a talented designer and loves sketching new outfits as well as makeup artistry. She strives to be a model, designer, or a makeup artist one day. Also with her new ability she acquired, she’s developed the talent of being stealthy and undetectable. She can get around anywhere or infiltrate just about any place without getting caught.
Prized Possession:Her makeup bag and sketch pad.
Quote(s): History/Bio:Zoë was born Zachary Gambino in the heart of Los Angeles, California. Born of Italian decent, family was everything and everyone stuck together. At an early age of only two, Zachary found a fascination with women’s clothing and all toys that were marketed towards girls. Every time his parents were to take them away, he would scream and throw a fit until he was allowed to play with them. Of course his parents just passed this as a phase that he would grow out of. This persisted into elementary school where he preferred to be called by female pronouns and to be referred to as Zoë named after his favorite Sesame Street character. After taking Zoë to a doctor that specialized in gender identity disorder, it was concluded that their son was indeed transgender. Loving their now daughter very much, they went through with her transition. They began buying her female clothes, changing her documents, and calling her by her correct names. Through this, Zoë’s parents were scrutinized by young kids and even teachers, saying that allowing their son to do this was a type of abuse. However, being in a relatively liberal city, they were supported for the most part.
Before Zoë hit puberty, she was taken to a doctor to start her testosterone blockers and estrogen. Coming from a wealthy family, most of her transition steps were affordable. After beginning her hormone treatment, Zoë began blossoming into a beautiful female, and not a “nasty hairy boy” like she feared of becoming. Going into junior high school, she was picked on relentlessly. Even though she was enrolled as a female, word got out of her transsexualism and it went downhill from them. There were times Zoë had to lock herself in the bathroom to stop the bullying. This caused her to go into a deep depression, even having thoughts of suicide. Teachers did nothing to stop the torment. Her personality became to change, causing her to be very anti-social and quiet. After meeting a dear friend that summer after finishing junior high, she began changing her outlook on this. With a fresh start into high school, she began wearing all of her favorite brands and having flawless makeup. All the men she spoke to never knew she was born male mostly due to the fact she never started male puberty. One boy in particular she took an extreme liking to, even to the point of stalking him. This is how her ability manifested.
When trying to sneak out of her house, she suddenly turned invisible out of panic when her parents almost caught her downstairs. With this ability, she used it to stalk to boy she liked. She began to master it and use it for her own bidding. She used it to get back at all of the people who did her wrong. She took the role of Queen Bee and carried herself with upmost confidence. Soon after, Zoë received an invitation to join the Academy to further her abilities. Initially she thought the Academy was hell and wanted to leave home immediately. Sooner or later she got used to it and decided to continue her education instead of quit. She eventually received her certification and decided to stay to receive college credit that she could use to transfer to a major university. Zoe still goes home to visit her family and friends often, as well as take small modeling gigs whenever they are willing to have her.

AbilitiesPower Class:Super-System & Elemental
Power: Invisible Energy Manipulation
Applications:Invisibility – Zoë can render herself unseen by the naked eye and become invisible in visible spectrum. She also directs enough undistorted light to her eyes to retain their full range of vision while invisible. She can move about an environment unseen by others and act without being observed and can do so without causing any visible distortion effects. Sometimes Zoë can be seen by others by choosing to while the people around the user can't also known as selective invisibility. This also applies to technological systems like motion sensors, thermal detectors, and monitoring devices like cameras. She can render parts of their body invisible while leaving the rest visible as well, known as partial invisibility. Zoë is able to turn others and other objects invisible by touching them or mentally willing it.
Cloaking Shield Generation – Zoë is able to project her invisible energy away from her body to create invisible shields and cloaks. She can construct shields (invisible force-fields) and shield-like objects to defend herself, as well as use them to cloak everything inside making them totally invisible/imperceptible, and as such can in no way be detected or communicated with by external forces such as technological systems and psychic powers. The user is able to render other people and objects unseen by the naked eye affecting up to a few thousand cubic feet; roughly the size of an average swimming pool. Her shields can only be shaped as domes, walls, or barriers. She is able to use this ability offensively by throwing her walls towards someone to knock them back. Her invisible shields can protect herself and others from most attacks, but requires active concentration to keep them up.
Limits:Invisible energy can only stay active for as long as the user can concentrate. While her invisibility can stay active for quite a while before having to revert back, her shields take more energy to create. Her shields limits can take more physical attacks, but are weakened when hit by bullets. Zoe’s shields are limited to so many bullets before they disperse and she’s vulnerable for attack.
Weaknesses/Drawbacks: Rain and other liquids, solids, fire, etc. can show the user's shape while invisible as well as smoke. In extremely cold temperatures, Zoe’s invisibility may become distorted to wear you can possibly see her. Although she can remain undetected by most Cerebral’s, she can’t remain hidden by all of them. Powerful clairvoyants in particular are able to sense her when she’s around. People with optical powers have a higher chance of detecting her as well. The power also takes concentration. If it is broken, she becomes visible again. Zoe is unable to stay invisible for a long time due to the amount of energy it takes.

Sample Post:Zoe cut through the dewy grass of Christopher Hansen’s house, seeing the dim light in his room that seemed to always be on. She knew this because she came to his house every day for the past month. She loved him. She needed to see him at all costs. After arriving on the front porch, she quickly rendered herself transparent as Chris’ mother suddenly left the house. Zoe used this time to slip through the door while it was open before it was closed. The sudden scent of cinnamon invaded her nose as she stood in the foyer of the house. The house had nice interior designing with a very old school vibe.
Setting her sights on her love, she made her way upstairs until she saw his room at the end of the hall. With great stealth, she crept to his bedroom door which had been open slightly ajar. She gently pushed the door open and walked in, finally in the same space as him. There laid a teenage boy with chocolate brown hair, big green eyes, a perfect straight nose, and pouty lips. He had the body of an Olympic athlete which Zoe dreamed of ravishing one day. Chris was on his bed reading a book that had been assigned by his English class. It only took a second for the teenage boy for his door to open slightly. Staring at it for a moment, he walked up to the door and shut it, merely passing it off as the air condition vent in the hall.
By the time Chris came back to the bed, Zoe had taken the liberty of sitting on the end, watching his every move; studying everything about it. She wanted him so bad, it hurt. Chris knew of her and her condition, merely brushing her off every time he saw her. Zoe just took it as him playing hard to get. She knew he wanted her. He had to want her. She took the next ten minutes to just watch him quietly as Chris continued to read his novel.
