Name: Lillian Grant
Alias: Tiger Lily
Age: 14
Alignment: Hero
Loyalty: Ward
Appearance: Lillian is a petite, cutesy little girl. Brown hair that reaches her shoulder blades that she keeps tied in a ponytail with two stands left out to frame her face. Her eyes are deep blue, full of life and curiosity. She's not exactly short, given her age, standing at 4'11" and weighing about a hundred pounds.
Her usual wear is a plated skirt, dark in color, and a solid colored T-shirt. Tennis shoes and pink ankle socks are visible her feet. She almost always carries a little stuffed bunny or bear with her, named Bun Bun and Brownie respectively.
Prior to joining the Wards, she had no costume.
After joining, she has adopted a more durable version of her normal outfit, with shorts under her skirt. To protect her face she wears a simple mask styled with what appears to be scales. (under change)
When transformed, she looks like a T-Rex, just of varying sizes.
History: Lillian was born into a mildly wealthy family, the third and youngest child of two lawyers. Given their profession, Lillian rarely saw her parents and was raised more from a in-house nanny as a direct result. There was little solace at home, often being a lonely place given the age difference between her and her twin brothers. As such her early years were unremarkably boring, uninteresting, and so very lonely.
But Lillian found respite at a young age, seven to be exact, in gymnastics. It was an outlet, an enjoyable experience, and it afforded her the chance to not be so lonely. But Lillian suffered from a timid personality in social interactions, and remained a very lonely child.
School was much of the same. Being an average student in a private school, forever struggling to hold up to her family's expectations and being under her brothers' shadows. Her social awkwardness left her a bit of an outcast, and she found herself constantly a subject of ridicule for not fitting in. Over the years this began to pull Lillian into a deep pit of self doubt and anxiety.
Early in 2005, Lillian being fourteen now, things escalated quickly. Over a few weeks she started to suffer from stomach aches and migraines on a regular basis from stress. She was never going to be good enough, she told herself. Never pretty enough. Never smart enough. And the pains got worse.
The taunting at school, the lack of support at home, and being cut from the gymnastics team from her performance degrading from her stress and anxiety snapped something in Lillian. Locked in her room, crying to herself late at night, Lillian took a leap. She felt like more of a child than ever before, with no future to hope for. And so she snuck out of the house once everyone was asleep, stealing some rope from the garage, and found a secluded area with a sturdy tree.
This was going to be it. No more pain, no more stress, and no more worries. She was terrified, broken to her very core, and this fear culminated as she tied the rope and prepared herself.
As she prepared to jump, the rope already tight enough to cause her pain, she felt a burning sensation throughout her body. As she stepped forward, everything seemed to flash white and the tug of the rope disappeared.
She now stood half as tall as the tree, and she was acutely aware that her body was not hers anymore. She was a giant dinosaur! It took Lillian several minutes to figure out what was going on, during which she'd knocked the tree over, breaking it closer to the ground where it couldn't move as easily with her tail.
After finally managing to change back, Lillian ran. And ran. And ran. She found the PRT headquarters and banged on the front doors until someone came. Distraught, she spilled everything. She knew of the Wards, who didn't? She knew she had just Triggered, and she desperately wanted to join and escape her life to become a hero and help. No one needed to go through what she had, and she needed help herself.
She knew, deep in her very being, that this was what she needed to do. For herself, and for everyone else.
Four days after the interrogation of LoveCraft some random mook met Lillian outside, followed by a PRT representative talking with her parents to get permission to allow her into the program, and officially joined the next day.
Personality
Motivations: Lillian is driven by the desire to see hate and evil driven out of the world. Little acts like bullying are very much included. Why can't everyone just get along?
Sexuality: Unknown, leans towards bisexual, but that's a long way away in her mind.
Likes:
- Flowers
- Blues and Greens
- Nice people
- Nature
- Animals
- Her stuffed bunny
- Gymnastics
- Boys
Dislikes:
- Mean people
- Bullies
- Yelling
- Fast food
- Green food (veggies)
- Boys
Derangement: Incredibly carnivorous. Will hardly ever eat anything but meat since her Trigger.
She also tends to fall into depressive moods at random, part of her never recovering from her attempted suicide.
Lillian also tends to drift ever closer to heat sources without realizing it. She'll continue such until someone points it out. She actively seeks out heat sources, like being in the sun, when not actively engaged in another activity. The mindless drift happens regardless of what she is doing, and as such she has a sleepwalking tendency.
Coping mechanism: Ever since her trigger, which turns her into a giant reptilian monster, Lillian has been obsessed with flowers. 'They smell good,' she argues.
As such, she always has a flower on her. A live one.
Complication: A direct result of her attempted suicide, Lillian has three distinct personality traits. At times she has the mentality of a young child, eight at most. Other times she's a normal 14 year old. And at other times she's incredibly mature for her age.
Parahumanism
Skills:
- Flexible
- Decent endurance (can run a mile in about 6 minutes)
- Great balance
- Good hand-eye Coordination
- Light on her feet
Classification: Thinker and Shifter / Brute
Details: Lillian has increased hearing, smell, reflexes, and eyesight. She can see in great detail up to a mile out, hear sounds better than is normal, and can track a scent like an animal as long as it's clear enough. Her reflexes are tied into her senses, as she can react to situations faster than most people would.These all work like advanced warning systems for her.
When shifting her form, she can take on the form if a reptile like creature, similar to a raptor or a T-Rex in varying stages of size. These sizes go from the height of an average man to easily double in size.
Her clothes and equipment remain intact and return to normal with her, as the form grows around her essentially.
Limitations: Lillian cannot see through obstacles, just like a normal person.
Her hearing acts normal, minus the enhanced intake of higher / lower frequencies.
She cannot distinguish smells that aren't very strong, or are covered by too many other strong smells.
When transformed, all her sense enhancements still apply the same.
Her senses can get overloaded, causing her to essentially be paralyzed.
She can't change sizes in lizard form, and must first revert back and wait 10 seconds before transforming again.
Her minimum transformation size is 6 feet, about the size of an average man, and her maximum is 40 feet tall. In addition, anything over 20 feet tall takes about 10 seconds to grow, and anything under 20 takes up to 5 seconds depending on size.
If she falls unconscious while Changed, she reverts back into human form automatically. Furthermore, injuries sustained in Dino form carry over into human form on a comparable level.
Equipment:
- Protectorate Communication Earpiece
- Costume will get to incorporate a holographic computer interfacing tool, courtesy of Decoy.
- Extendible metal baton
