Black Skies, Black Hearts

Name
Sarah Quick

Alias
Sparks

Age
24

Gender
Female

Sexuality
Lesbian

Personality
She considers herself rather boring. Sarah is really just a huge nerd, when she's not superheroing she's playing video games at home or with some of the few friends she managed to gather over the years. Sarah's the type of person who doesn't believe much of herself, but refuses to stand by and let other people feel the same. Which is probably why she picked up the hero gig. Her temper flares fairly easily when people try to kick her or others down, especially when it's for reasons that don't actually matter in the end. Rich snobby ladies and things like that looking down on people for being less better off. Sarah is quick to fight and defend but she doesn't really see herself as some kind of hero.

Not the type of person to back down, she can be immensely stubborn and is willing to do anything to succeed at whatever it is that's caught her attention.

She struggles with being vulnerable with others, opening herself emotionally is a weakpoint for her. She can show compassion and kindness but letting others do the same for her creates a instant defensive response.

Appearance

Sarah

Casually she's always wearing the beanie and her glasses.

Her superhero outfit has her clad in a series of black, red, and yellow colors. She has a red leather jacket with a yellow trimming that followed the hem of her jacket, from the entire collar, down along the zippers and around to the bottom of the coat to meet fully in the back in a thick bold band and then bright yellow bands around her wrists over a plain white shirt. Attached to the jacket is a red hood and a yellow mask covering her eyes and passing her nose, covering her cheekbones entirely. She finally ended the ensemble with simple black leather pants and black combat boots.

Powers

• Can manipulate electricity
• Can generate and absorb electricity into her own body
• Can disappear and travel through anything connected to electricity
• Can absorb electricity to stimulate healing
• Can move manipulate electronically connected objects/magnetic objects

Bio
An orphan since she was a baby left at a hospital she spent some time between group homes and foster care. The young blonde girl ended up bouncing around a lot between various homes and "families", never staying in one place too long especially after her powers started manifesting. Accidentally shocking her foster siblings and parents there was no one who wanted to keep a kid with a temper who had inexplicable habit of being able to cause problems for those around her. But she always found a love for gaming in the few houses and arcades she could find as she moved through the system.

In her teens she started working to actually learn how to use her powers, rather than letting flares of anger control them. If only to give her something to stay out of whatever house she was in at the time. The hours of work paid off and she could do all sorts of things before too terribly long.

Eventually she aged out of the system and got herself a job, first waitressing while taking classes for computer engineering. This landed her a job in an office as a IT person for a local media giant. The job fit in rather well with her other job, vigilante-ism. She took on the name Sparks and tackled crime everywhere she went. Using her position at the media company she was able to keep track and pick up on local crimes right from her job and at home, being connected to the system from home to pick up on any faults in the building from home as well.

Name the place you first began roleplaying.

I genuinely don't remember anymore. I was some kid on some random chat website. It's a toss up between that and the Yahoo!Chats when they were still a thing people used.

<Snipped quote by Rica>

I'm the wrong one to bark at because I'd be perfectly fine with mature adult content in public alá bluemoonRP. The implications are that this would remove ads, and I am not really a fan of that system anyway because it ties us down a lot in terms of content in my experience.

@Buddha

Ahhh what bothers me is more on the social end, rather than site rules. Hence why "not the thread for it" . :P

This is not the time or place for a long rant on the implications of all that stuff and I'm respecting the thread's subject matter.

Works like youtube. Mention of the word sexual or lesbian relates to sexual content 99.9% of the time when you are perusing the internet. So, mentioning it will likely result in adsense picking it up as bad bad words. :) I won't argue about identity here in this thread because you know my stances, but there's definitely a reason for it afaik.

@Buddha

UGH

I won't go into it here because this isn't the thread for it but...

UGHHHH that bothers me.

Anyway I've said my piece I'll keep an eye on things if I have anything to add.

(lol the rules state you can't use words like lesbian, bisexual or homosexual but it happens all the same) are actually enforced for once, or are we just going to pretend like it's not a thing? Either works for me personally.

@Buddha

Wait what?????

Where?

Am I supposed to pretend like I don't exist now? (for the sake of clarity, that's a joke)

That's gotta be one of the weirder rules I've ever seen, and I work for a corporation who's favorite thing is meddling dumb rules that make no logical sense.
