@Letter Bee sure! i suppose i took "Short bio" too literally, lol

Intrigues of Venedig - High Fantasy Mature RP

Here's my character. Let me know if there's anything I can change, add, or take away!

Jehenne Alcroft

Name: Jehenne Alcroft
Age: 36
Physical Description:

Jehenne

Jehenne is a beautiful brunette with fair skin, sharp, large features, and dark eyes. She stands at just under six feet and has a slender, elegant body type.

Important items: An expensive necklace her older brother gave her. Most likely taken from her.

Short Bio: Jehenne spent most of her life in her older brother's shadow. He was a proud, arrogant fool, and one of the only people Jehenne truly cared for. His honesty and earnest nature contrasted so much so with her quiet, calculating, and cynical one. They made quite the team, and Jehenne offered the favorite sibling advice. In many ways, if he was successful, she was successful. Parents were a non-issue for Jehenne, they were old, boring, and unambitious. It was a miracle that they raised such interesting children, in her mind. Jehenne lived a pampered, well educated life, and certainly partook in the methods of slavery as well. Benefits of the silver spoon, she supposed. Her brother was a better person than she, and he always seemed a bit uncomfortable with the flippant way she treated her fellow man, but without even realizing she always deftly maneuvered out of the topic.

Eventually, his earnest ways took him too far, and he was killed in battle rebelling against who he viewed as a tyrant. Jehenne was broken and saddened by this loss, and the world seemed darker without him. Sometimes, it felt like without him, she was the only real person left...sometimes. Nonetheless, next in line to the throne, Jehenne would be made an example of. Sold into slavery in the city of Venedig, as a househould servant, and potentially other, darker things. A taste of her own bitter medicine, though she certainly hasn't seen it as such. What has been done to her is an abomination and injustice, and escape will be hers, if not vengeance.

Starting Faction: The ex-noble slaves
Spell List:

Suggestion: A spell of Mind Magic origin, Jehenne can use this ability to manipulate the emotions of a single or multiple targets. The more targets there are, the more split her power becomes, and the less effective it is. She can use this to calm, persaude, or manipulate, giving her already silver tongue a sharp, magical edge.

Minor healing: From the school of Change, Jehenne can draw upon the ability to heal minor wounds and calm major wounds. She can also reverse aging, which she does on occasion for herself, and she used to do it on her brother. She's not a vain person...but, well, maybe a little. Nothing wrong with learning to give herself and others a little extra elegance in age?

Exceptional Skill List:

Exceptional Diplomacy x2: Diplomacy was Jehenne's role as a noblewoman. As such, she has a refined skill of telling people what they want to hear, or don't want to hear, in order to get what she wants. Most people are like puzzles to be figured out. Once you know what to say, one could play them like an instrument.

Exceptional Bureaucracy: Math, numbers, and the boring side of social engineering. Many books and many lessons have taught her to be somewhat of an expert on the subject. It is dreadfully boring though, isn't it?

Exceptional Trading: With bureaucracy and diplomacy inevitably comes money, and Jehenne has a sense for economic opportunties and manipulating the market to get the best deal. Or conning people, if it came down to it.

Heroes Reborn: Prime Earth (Superhero/Urban Fantasy)

Here's Starfire, I'm open to changing a lot about her. The basic skeleton is that she's in exile from her homeworld.

Right now, she just made it to Earth. I'm hoping to coordinate with one of the other players of the RP as to who will be one of Starfire's first friends, but I can change that if you want. Let me know if if there's anything I should change about her powerset, too.

Edit: I also have a couple ideas for weaknesses in mind, if that's needed.

Starfire

Basic Information
=========
Superhero/villain Name: Starfire
Civilian Name: Kory Anders
Origin city/Planet: Tamaran
Hometown: New York
Sex: Female
Race: Tamaran
Height: 5'11
Weight: 130 lbs
Age: 190 (19 in Tamaran)
Birth Date: May 22nd, 1831
--------
Costumed Appearance:

Starfire

Civilian Appearance: Starfire would wear street clothes if she was confident there would be no trouble, but given her striking and unique appearance she is never really anyone else other than Starfire.
Icon:

Starfire's Emerald

Costumed Personality: Starfire, despite her advanced age in human years, is quite naive. She has an interesting sense of humor that is mostly based on slapstick and punchline based jokes, but she is usually cheery and amiable. However, she takes combat very seriously, and will not mess around and become lazer focused on defeating the enemy, driven mostly by emotions of determination and passion to defeat her foes. This makes her reliable and trust worthy, but also makes her prone to reckless and dangerous actions. She has courage in spades, and does not fear death, but she is afraid of losing those she cares about, and the innocent masses at large.

Civilian Personality: Starfire is very rarely "off". Infact, her made up name, Kory Anders (a human version of Koriand'r, her real name) is very rarely used. She has adopted the Starfire persona entirely, and enjoys fighting the good fight. Starfire is trusting, gullible, and optimistic.

Super abilities:
-Skills: Tamaran Martial Arts
-Powers:

Solar Manipulation: Starfire is powered by the sun. Her species uses photosynthesis, in a way, to survive, though obviously Starfire is not a plant. Using this power, she can jump great distances, and a variety of other powers.

Starbolt: Her most common form of offense is the star bolt. She summons a sphere of energy about the size of a volleyboll around her hand. One formed, it solidifies, like a frozen waterballoon. This is called "Hard-Light." Upon release, they fly in an arc and shatter on the target, exploding into a concussive green flame. The longer the Starbolt is charged, the more powerful it is, and a half minute of charging can release in something like a C4 detpack, capable of destroying small buildings. She can also fire them very quickly, like machinegun fire with the force of a very large and very round bullet, though not nearly as fast. Most of the time, she picks a healthy middle, like a grenade.

Starpoint: She can concentrate much less volatile orbs of energy as well, and these are more utility than offense. They can float in the air, embed themselves in surfaces, or roll along the ground. Starfire can hook or latch any part of her body onto them and use them as platforms and grip points. A sheer surface be suddenly becoming like a climbing wall, with Starfire launching herself from Point to Point. They can float in the air for a short amount of time and be used like rungs on a horizontal ladder. Sometimes, she latches them onto her feet and uses them like floating rollerblades to increase her speed, take ramps, and look badass.

Starjump: Starfire's most iconic ability is the Starjump. A brief moment of focus can create a 2d circle beneath her feet or hands, popping her off it as if it were solid ground. She can use this to jump from place to place using nothing but the air. The longer she is in the air, the more powerful the Starjump is. Using Starpoints and Starjumps can increase her mobility exponentially. The Starjump is used to gracefully reposition and shifter Starfires momentum in the air. The sound a Starjump makes is as if someone hit a large pingpong ball extremely hard into an echoing abyss, with bassy crack and pop echoing through the air as Starfire jumps. Her people on her homeworld would use Starjumps as their way of space travel, gaining more and more momentum and speed, circling the entire planet and then focusing all their energy into a massive Starjump to burst from the planet's gravitational pull at half the speed of light. Once in space, they would be unconstrained, and get up to light speed. This process takes about a week of uninterrupted movement.

Starshield: Starfire can create a shield of Hard-Light around her body or to be held infront of her. It is resistant to small arms fire but breaks under too much extreme duress. If she continually focuses on it, it can protect her from a considerable amount of damage, but this requires a brief amount of charging and removes her mobility and offensive abilities completely.

Being of the Stars: Starfire does not need to eat, sleep, or go the bathroom. All she needs is access to direct sunlight or a UV light, or the light generated by a fellow Tamaran, at least once a week. If she does not get this sustenance, she will begin to die and experience symptoms much like severe dehydration. The longer she goes without contact with an appropriate light source, the weaker she becomes. She is completely immune to heat damage of any kind. She also regenerates faster. In order to heal, she must sleep. Depending on the severity of the wound sometimes she doesn't have a choice in the matter. If knocked unconscious by a grevious wound she will be out of it for about a week. If she is knocked out in a place with no light source, she'll not wake up at all until she dies of the wound or is brought back into the light. While her skin absorbs the light that allows her to live, she also needs to breathe it in. Not breathing in oxygen, but the light itself. So she can breathe in space, as long as there is a light source where the light can reach her.

Natural Durability: Starfire's skin and bones are naturally tough. She is naturally bulletproof, with bullets bouncing off her skin like well aimed punches. A shot to the head for example, will knock her out immediately. Sharp places can cut a little into her, and concussive stuns can hurt her. Usually, other enhanced individuals can create the force necessary to do real damage to her form, and a well trained and well coordinated contigent of normal people with better than average firearms have the potential to bring her down as well.

-Gadgets: The Star Gem is what she wears on her breastplate. It allows her to more easily focus her power. Without it, she can still fight, but she will grow tired and potentially become overwhelmed by her own power. It also stores solar energy, allowing her to use it like a battery if she does have access to the sun. A true Tamaran warrior goes without a Star Gem. It is comparable to training wheels, as Starfire was not able to finish the long process of training and mastering her powers.

-Weapons: None. Starfire only uses her innate powers to fight.

Civilian Occupation: None. She is unemployed and spends most her time super-heroing around.

Biography---------

Character History/Origin: Starfire was next in line to be Empress of the Ko empire, the largest empire in her home world. It is a place of pride, strength, and abundant resources with a strict social code. It is a jewel of the galaxy, and one that draws great envy. As such, the planet of Tamaran is in a state of near continuos warfare with other alien races who seek to take it's riches. Starfire, named Koriand'r at the time, was being trained to continue the fight. She, and her youger sister, Kormand'r, was the opposite of Starfire in many ways. She was cold, calculating, intelligent, devious and ambitious. Kormand'r noticed the frontlines beginning to fail. She noticed the slow abandonment of their warrior race roots, and the growing contentment and apathy of her people. She saw that Starfire was obvlious to this. She sought out to fix this, and save her people. In many ways, Komand'r was heroic. Perhaps, in another life, things could have gone so much better. Being the younger sister, Koriand'r was pampered. Koriand'r was kind and sociable, she was not. Koriand'r was the more talented fighter, while Komand'r used her wits and devious tricks to gain victory, which was viewed as dishonorable. Koriand'r was well on her way to becoming a Starfire, an elite unit of fighters.

Komand'r was the underdog, and sought to upheave the status quo.

Komand'r sought out fundamentalists and extremists, those who would join her cause. Koriand'r was off training and participating in skirmishes, working her way up into becoming the Empress. She paid little mind to her little sister. Naive as she was, she had no idea of what was coming. Those around her grew suspicious, and tensions between the Ko Empire and Komand'r's growing discontent skyrocketed. Eventually, the enemies of Tamaran made a large push. Komand'r took this opportunity to stage her coup. She killed her own father, though the circumstances around this murder are murky at best. Her rebellion overpowered the loyalists. Koriand'r, blindsided and enraged, could not comprehend why her sister would do such a thing, which simply served to anger her sister even further. They fought, and through means Koriand'r did not expect, Komand'r proved victorious.

She enslaved her sister. Komand'r began reshaping the world in her new image. The council was undone, and Komand'r reigned supreme as an absolute monarch. A decade later, Koriand'r escaped. Besting the guards, she got the upperhand on Komand'r when she least expected, and Starjumped away. A few years later, in exile, she found her way to Earth. Particularly depleted after a long flight, she crash landed into the American midwest. Surprised by the hostility of the place, (who according to records was a safe planet), she managed to escape east into New York.

Optional information: Here, she will stay. Learning the plight of the people of Earth, she will try to make it a better place, and improve her ownself. One day, she intends to return to Tamaran and avenge her father and retake the planet. In the meantime, she will grow in strength and wisdom until she has what it takes to defeat her sister.
----------
Nemesis: Komand'r seeks her sister to this day, it being a matter of personal vengeance and vendetta, to prove she was right. Adopting the name Blackfire, her search is limited in resources due to the war, and her ongoing conquest.
Allies: None, yet.
Team: None yet.
Other: I'll ask around and see who will be willing to be one of Starfire's first friends on planet Earth.

Intrigues of Venedig - High Fantasy Mature RP

this looks very, very cool. i'm going to start working on a character soon

Heroes Reborn: Prime Earth (Superhero/Urban Fantasy)

i still want to be starfire

Heroes Reborn: Prime Earth (Superhero/Urban Fantasy)

people living in new zealand have no idea what's going on in the rest of the world and they don't care, either

Anomalous

i made some small edits to Veronica's CS. A little more weirdness/info about the Epsilons and also a tracker I'll use, and you all can use to know what's going on with the different Epsilons.
