PhysiqueGrace has often been described as boy-ish in appearance. She has a very slim build, with only a very lightly muscular build, standing at 5'5" and weighing 116 pounds, making her fairly underweight, though not in a malnourished way. She has naturally brown hair, but since joining PHANTOM has died it dark orchid color to match her naturally vibrant purple eyes, one of her more unique features. She has fair skin and characteristically slim eyes that tend to give away her Oriental background. Her willowy figure also gives note to her comparative lack of certain, err,
assets, something that she is a
bit envious of.

PersonalityOn the surface, Grace comes off as a very cool, collected, level-headed person. A soft-spoken girl by nature, Grace prefers analysis over immediate action, and tends to remain quiet and take things in before rushing to conclusions or jumping into action. She tends to seem subdued and lackadaisical, often standing on the sidelines and watching things out with an uncaring expression on her face. Her classic move is to chew gum while watching a fight from the sidelines and throwing her own opinion into the mix. She has a sort of biting sarcasm that seems almost vicious to those that aren't familiar with her. She seems very much uncaring, haughty, and too-good-for you at the surface.
Underneath the surface, though, Grace is a loyal friend, one that is incredibly adaptable and incredibly resolute in her beliefs. Stubborn as a donkey, Grace will firmly stand by what she believes. much of which is a very valiant view of heroism in general. Grace is a very capable, but maybe more importantly, a very determined hero that will fight for a strong cause. Despite on the surface appearing all uncaring, Grace very much has a strong determination within her to fight for heroism. She is also very focused on preventing damage, believing that a hero's duty is to protect civilians and their welfare, and she is visibly annoyed by unnecessary damages.
Grace does have a wilder side to her, but its one that rarely surfaces because of her propensity towards hero work and the like. Though she may regret it at first, Grace's cutting sense of humor and a deep-seated desire for more fun in her life makes her a wild thing that has simply yet to be tamed.
BackstoryMok Ga-Yun was born to an upper-class family in South Korea. Raised by a family that was part-royalty, Ga-Yun was given a top-tier education in all the subjects, including English, which she was a fan of. By the age of 10, Ga-Yun was well more advanced than her peers in all the subjects, most prominently math, where she had already begun studying the basics of pre-calculus, along with English, in which she was fluent in, along with Korean. She began to adopt the English name Grace, partially because it sounded cool and partially because it sounded somewhat similar to Ga-Yun. "Grace" seemed to be well on-track towards becoming a mathematician or an engineer or something in the field of the sciences or math.
When she was about 12, though, her powers began to surface, and it was clear to Grace that this gift allowed her an even greater opportunity than that of anything else she could have dreamed of. The young girl immediately began to research heroism, professional heroism, and learned of its many benefits. The local hero company sponsored by ICOSA was P.H.A.N.T.O.M., the Pacific Hero Association for the Neutralization of Threats of Malevolence, which broadly covered the areas of Korea, Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines, much of Oceania including Australia, and occasionally China when their local HERO company, C.H.O.M.P., needed backup. PHANTOM in many ways is the opposite of HERO. Unlike HERO, PHANTOM is very well-regarded and well-respected by ICOSA for their services to the hero community, are known as responsible and easily accountable, and though in terms of raw strength they may be behind, PHANTOM keeps well-ahead in terms of damage control. Grace wanted a position here, so on her 18th birthday, she began a career with PHANTOM.
Bypass, as she became known by, quickly rose through the ranks with prestige. She became a member of PHANTOM's elite task force, the PHANTOM Five, and was named by ICOSA as a "Hero Exemplar," a status bestowed upon only 49 heroes in the world (most of them not from HERO), for her services. Considering that the Leftover amounts in her region had declined significantly and supervillainy was down, Bypass began working more and more closely with ICOSA.
As of now, Bypass currently is still employed with PHANTOM. However, ICOSA has been increasingly putting pressure on HERO to get their act together, and the idea of them sending a Hero Exemplar to help out isn't exactly one they aren't considering. Grace
has wanted to go to America for a while, too...hmmm....
PowerPortalGrace is capable of creating and manipulating rifts in space, allowing her to create portals that can allow near-instant transportation through space quickly. The portals can either be applied to a surface or left midair and Grace can create them rather quickly.
Paired Portals: If a portal is connected to another portal, any object, living or non-living, is sent through to the other open portal extremely quickly. The transition is not smooth and many of those that find themselves going through the portal the first time experience bouts of nausea after doing so, like riding a roller coaster, though Grace has never felt this type of sickness before. Grace is theoretically capable of connecting any two locations instantly, though she finds that maintaining a portal that is farther than her vision can be extremely taxing, especially if the portals are transporting large groups of people. Grace is able to open paired portals that are close to each other relatively quickly, however. Grace is also able to open a paired portal through a surface with ease, allowing individuals to walk through practically any wall with simplicity.
Open Space: When Grace opens a single portal with no exit destination, those that walk through it are transported to Open Space, a strange empty pocket dimension that Grace can control. Open Space is technically inescapable without Grace opening a portal out of it, however, it is very difficult for Grace to maintain objects, especially living matter, in the Open Space for longer than a minute tops, at which point everything inside of the Open Space would be quickly deposited right in front of Grace.
Puzzle Portals: Grace creates more than 2 portals at once. Usually, only two of the Portals are active while the rest lead to Open Space. Grace uses this ability to confuse enemies and thus make an effective getaway.
Portal Discus: Grace can create a flat portal that has no exit destination and use it as a weapon, able to throw it like a discuss. This is one of her primary offensive weapon uses.
Consuming Portal: Grace creates a particularly powerful portal that sucks everything roughly into open space around it. While a destructive ability in practice, Grace has yet to use this ability.
The Complexity Of Space: Grace condenses many portals into a sphere and blasts the sphere. The compacted space then sucks inwards towards the sphere at high velocity. While a destructive ability in practice, Grace has yet to use this ability.
While portals may seem cool, Grace has yet to master the ability in its entirety, though very skilled at its usage. She cannot make portals forever, as the more she creates and the farther apart they are, the more she is drained until she eventually succumbs to unconsciousness.
