Name: Renee Weilheimer
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Race: Human with unusual bat DNA mixed into her
Appearance: She looks like a pale skinned stereotypical goth girl with died streaks of dark purple in her long, straight hair. Most notably about her is a pair of dark wings on her back that look like they belong to a vampire bat as well as it's ears.
Personality: She's always willing to speak her mind but in a sarcastic or passive aggressive manner, not afraid to hurt other people's feelings to get them to leave her alone or just because she doesn't feel the need to lie in order to shelter people's egos. She's quite often a loner who never seems to be able to enjoy herself even when she's coming up with witty insults. Nobody knows her true smile.
Although she was antisocial right from the get go, these traits were exacerbated by her transformation into a half-bat at the age of 13 that ostracized her from most of society, ruining all chance of her being a normal girl during the very important years of growing up in school. She's even mistaken as being a demon quite often due to her wings and heavy metal outfits/goth attire that includes lots of spikes and dark subject matter. As such she's even been physically assaulted on more than one occasion. She refuses to be a victim and beats them up in return if she can't easily run away (or her anger gets the better of her), which of course doesn't help rumors of her being evil even though she refrains from causing any long lasting harm. Most of the time she tries to remain relatively emotionless but is prone to snapping if pushed hard enough.
She only blends in at heavy metal concerts and the like so otherwise seldom went out of the house for a long time, being home schooled and with no college education. She doesn't care much any more about what people think of her, developing thick skin. Still, it's not exactly pleasant to take strolls out in public.
Abilities
Physical Abilities- She could take on a mob of twenty or so brutal, baseball bat wielding gangsters and come out on top with some minor bruising, knocking them off their feet to slam into walls halfway across the room. Defense or strength isn't her strong suit, however, even if she could withstand repeated blows from un-enhanced humans unless they got lucky or used more deadly weapons.
More likely she'd rely a lot on nimbly evading stuff with the aid of greatly enhanced reaction times. She seems ready for almost anyone to turn on her at a moment's notice, perhaps because of how she was raised in addition to enhanced abilities due to the half-bat DNA, making her nearly impossible to hit in the first place for an untrained, un-enhanced person. Her top speed is only 40 miles per hour but her movements in dodging make her seem faster for quick bursts. She can cartwheel, back-flip, and other graceful athletic movements with the skill of an elite gymnast.
Hearing- She can hear in frequencies what would be expected of a bat as well as lower, normal human frequencies. Whatever the frequency she can hear, she can hear it extraordinarily well. If someone is breathing in the room next door with an average wall blocking her than she can potentially hear it if she focuses, pinpointing the exact locations of everyone from this and other noises they may make such as footsteps.
Flying- She's highly maneuverable in the air as well as on land and is no faster unless using gravity to her advantage. Her wings would tire out after flying for over five minutes, causing her movements to become far sloppier and than she falls to the ground entirely after around six minutes. Her wings couldn't lift more than 100 pounds of extra weight without tiring her, which can become enough of a problem that she couldn't last over 30 seconds carrying an average sized adult male.
Guitar- Not combat related but important to her. She loves shredding on the electric guitar and is quite decent at it. She's not quite professional but is certainly good enough where people would come to listen to her in a small joint.
Powers
Sonic Screech- A very high pitched screech can erupt from any part of her body that makes noise; not just her vocal chords but also very commonly a snap of her fingers, but using inanimate objects doesn't work.
The area producing the normal sound sparkles for a half second as it turns into a sonic screech and erupts outward like a funnel of sparkling purple wind three feet wide at it's widest point as it travels from the point of origin at the speed of sound. It gets weaker and weaker up to full dissipation at 50 feet away, max effective range of 40 feet, if she made a sound as loud as a scream at the top of her lungs. A stealthy snap of her fingers heard only within talking distance could only effectively travel around 5 feet and knock them off their feet like a professional boxer punched them while the loudest snap of her fingers could kill an un-enhanced human like a blow from a war hammer smashing against them. A full force scream could leave them with a closed casket funeral like they got trampled by an angry elephant.
Not only does it cause physical damage but it can also cause temporary or even permanent hearing loss (depending on the power put into the attack and if it's a direct hit) or painful ringing ears for a couple seconds at the best case scenario if the attack connects. A near miss could cause lessoned effects.
She can do a full blown scream only once every three hours or so without it hurting her vocal chords and also draining her of energy like she just ran a mile. She can do normal snapping attacks around ten times an hour before suffering the same effects but with sore fingers.
Echolocation- A burst of high pitched sound comes off of her body that has the same potency and effects of a bat's echolocation. Her hearing is good enough where she doesn't often need to use this anyways but it can also paint a map of her surroundings in her head for things not making a sound. Even if completely blind or seeing illusion spells she would be un-affected as a result.
Weaknesses
Oversensitivity- A loud burst of high frequency sound could disrupt her senses and even irritate or pain her if done constantly. Her ears can withstand very loud noises without taking permanent damage, however, and the inner ear can largely restore itself as good as new within a week.
Loner Attitude- She's not likely to get help from others and has poor teamwork abilities when she does.
Equipment
Clothing: She doesn't wear clothing with more defensive properties than leather jackets. Her exact outfit changes because they are street clothes or what is worn at concerts. She has no "super hero outfit" so to speak that could serve as her trademark. She hates cheesy or cutesy outfits but can wear skirts if they are black, often paired with ripped black stockings.
Bio
She was a relatively normal, slightly anti-social child growing up. She always loved music, especially punk, metal, rock, and all the variations of them. She even learned to play the guitar herself, screaming at the top of her lungs as she swung it around, much to her parent's displeasure. Her simple life changed when she snuck to a late night concert for a hardcore death metal group known as the Death Bats. They released a swarm of bats at the grand finale, as they'd been known to do in the past, but this time one of them went crazy and attacked her at random, biting her on her left forearm as she tried to shoo it away.
Somehow it's DNA was mixed in with hers because bat wings painfully burst from her back within the following week and her ears also turned to that of a bat. She didn't want to be the center of a huge media frenzy so managed to get those who looked after her at the small, locale hospital to hold their tongue after blackmailing them upon uncovering unsafe business practices they were doing that could get them in serious trouble. This also meant that she didn't get any in depth study done on her, causing her to not figure out exactly what had gone wrong. Not that she cared very much anyways.
On the downside of her remaining in the unknown, people often mistook her for a demon, who do openly exist and interfere with mankind from time to time. Even angels and demons themselves have made such errors in the past, forcing her to hone her abilities just to survive. One time a demon even mistook her to be on their team when they robbed a church of numerous religious artifacts, passing the briefcase of stolen good to her as they ran by on the street, thinking she was the one to deliver it to their leader. This made her an unwitting accomplish to the demons until she could clear up the situation with a obliviously stupid angel boy who tried to defeat her and recover the goods by force.
Other supernatural and enhanced human groups have also gotten involved with her in the past despite her doing her best to remain solo as long as she could. She's under no illusion that she can live a normal life doing things her way, but she doesn't want to live a life serving others who only want to use her for her powers.
