[TMITM]

Subject #T0 - The Man In The Mirror {Note: Usually goes by the Acronym TMITM.}

Name/ Title / Alias [
TMITM - stands for The Man In The Mirror. To our knowledge, he has many titles besides, such as the Shadow, The King of Ink, Mist and Shadow, and the Lord of the Lonely Places. ]

Biography[
As far as we know, he came into being in 1956, when the first sightings of this mysterious entity were reported to the authorities of that time. This is reflected by his attire, a hat and trench coat. {Note: His entire body is made up of the ink substance, leading us to believe these are actually part of his body.} He has spent all of his time, since his first sightings, trying to get power through subtle and paranormal means.
{Note: We also know he has clashed with the mysterious Entity and it's avatars often in the past, leading us to believe he's more powerful than he lets on.}

Name/ Title / Alias:
Name: Eden Roy Barrera
Alias: Ajax - this was given to her by others to poke fun at her ability to complete a job while keeping her hands clean.

Biography:
Eden grew up in her grandparents' care from the tender age of 2. As her life progressed, she couldn't remember anything about them, and her grandparents didn't keep anything around with her parents in it. In her younger years, her grandparents were a bit detached from her, and she always thought it was the same disconnect her parents had. Subsequently, she began to distance herself from people in general, never really learning how to trust. In her early teens, her grandparents became more condescending towards her which caused her to become defiant during her teenage years. It was during this -- seemingly normal -- phase of teenage rebellion that she was given up on. In the two weeks following her sixteenth birthday, her grandparents mused over the idea of kicking her out, and at the end of week two, they did just that. She was given a rucksack with a change of clothes in it succeeding her grandparents taking anything valuable from her, and with that, she was locked out, left to fend for herself.
It was this sudden coldness/betrayal and an overall lack of understanding throughout her life that caused her to turn to crime. It started out as something small, like stealing, but with her life on the street becoming more and more abusive towards her, she began to commit larger crimes. With each crime, she became more and more desperate for the adrenaline rush, more desperate to feel somebody else's feelings. If she hadn't been so down, maybe her powers could have been used for good, but nobody had ever treated her that way. It always seemed to her that she was a problem, a screw-up. Her own parents didn't want her, her grandparents -- who raised her -- never seemed to really love in, instead, they all just wanted her to be fixed. All she wanted was for people to see her worth, for people to care for her and love her despite the power she held. Even in the crimes she committed, other people were given the credit which was both relieving and upsetting. Sure, the body had committed the crime, but half of the people she had possessed were too weak to ever do something like that themselves. It was because of her mind, her desperation, her misfortune that these crimes were ever able to be committed, but nobody knew that. Nobody except a man that welcomed her into his life.

While she was on the streets, she became close with an older man (she was in her late teens/early twenties while they were friends). He always offered to share the place he was staying which many homeless people didn't like to do since it put them and the few belongings at risk. When he saw Eden use her powers, instead of being scared or shouting at her, he asked her vague questions about it. It was after he watched her steal food in someone else's body that he gave her the name "Ajax" which was all he ever knew her as since they had never exchanged names. He told her Ajax referred to her being able to keep her hands clean while committing such crimes which she found interesting. While he didn't encourage her to commit crimes, he also didn't deter her from it which was most likely a side-effect of living on the streets for as long as he did.
Throughout their time together, they took on an almost father-daughter relationship which was a welcome change from the upbringing that she had. She learned that he had faced the same exile years earlier because of his power, and he now rarely used his power. Neither of them had been taught the facets or methods to their powers growing up, but they differed in the way they moved forward without that teaching. The man stopped using his power entirely which resulted in him not even being able to describe his powers to Ajax when she asked about them. On the other hand, Ajax used her power to survive on the streets both while she was on her own and while she was in the man's company.

Affiliation:
It had taken a couple of years of Eden living on the streets for her to be noticed by an organization. Of course, her crimes never truly looked like her own, and in a way, they weren't. Having other people do the bidding, albeit interesting, had its caveats. Never had she intended on being seen, but that changed one day. It was downpouring outside, and Eden was freezing. Her only friend hadn't returned to her like he was supposed to. Without his companionship, she was unable to find a safe place for her to settle in for the night, away from the rain, and no amount of alley cover could keep the rain from touching her skin, so when she saw a woman walking into a store, she knew what she had to do. Something went wrong though, and she snapped back to her body before she was fully able to take control of the woman. This interrupted process left her a bit discombobulated. When she was able to gain a level head, she realized that there were two people standing over her, shielding what was momentarily just the shell of a body from the freezing rain. They said they were intrigued by her powers and told her that she could be of great use should she join them. The Scarlet Five. Three words that, at that time, seemed weightless. However, she couldn't say no to such a thing. She was finally getting the credit for what she was doing, and with the sudden loss of her companion, there was no way she would turn down shelter. Rank S.

After seeing what the Opposition looked like, Eden decided she would be okay. Even those with powers looked like they would be easily overtaken should they come close to The Scarlet Five. Besides, she had a feeling that the majority of the people with powers would be unwilling to use them in a directly malicious was because it was that type of Malice that they sought to destroy by seeking out the criminals and the masterminds. The Scarlet Five had been operating for years, and what made people think that now was the time they would be captured? Each of them knew the other's strengths and weaknesses which meant should anyone end up in a pinch, somebody else would be able to step in and help. Did people really know the faces of the real Scarlet Five? Criminals beneath them would no doubt take their place if they were asked.

To Eden, the police with powers are those accepted by society. The only reason they were accepted was that citizens saw them as a weapon against the criminals. If there weren't police, there wouldn't be evil according to her. Part of the fun in the crimes was having them found and investigated only for the investigators to be disappointed when the trail runs cold. Being a cop was respectable despite her criminal nature. She understood that without the exchange of power her actions, her abilities would mean nothing to the public. In a state of anarchy was anybody truly looked up to and feared?

Spoiler: Classified - File EA25P

Powers:
Eden/Ajax can possess the minds of others within a certain proximity to herself.

She cannot possess animals.

When she possesses somebody with an accepting mind her body will sit idle wherever she left it, slumped in the safety she hopefully left it in. She figures if anyone stumbles upon it they may assume she's just a drunk or is a victim of something. If the person is unaware that the switch is coming, their conscious mind may take the place of her own, although they will have little to no recollection of what was seen or done while in her body unless their power is the same as hers. If she wanders too far from her body her mind will snap back to where it belongs which can result in feelings of motion sickness and overall disorientation which means that she had to be wary of where her body is and where it goes should the mind forced into it decide to move. If somebody's mind is fatigued she is able to wander a bit further than usual do to the body's sudden boost in energy.

She can possess people for varying amounts of time. If the person is aware she is going to enter their body and allows her to take it, she can stay in their body for a few hours unless the other person mind becomes panicked, then she must return to her body ASAP because that panic could cause complications with memory and cause her fatigue. If someone is unaware she tends to stick to half an hour max to avoid the body's owner doing something to/with her body without her knowledge or panicking. If she knows the power of who she is taking over she is able to use it at about 15% of its owner's true capability. If the power is unknown to her she is fully unable to access it at all. That being said, should she know every facet of someone's power she can practice it and become more capable of using it.

The general rule is that she will have to see them or at least know a name and face to be able to take them over should they be out of her eyesight. She doesn't take over people in the air because their power -- no matter how much she is capable of using it -- can flick off until she uses it in their body. Say if someone was on the floor above her or below her and asked for her help, she could take over their body -- because she knows their name and face -- and use it like normal (the normal of someone knowing and consenting to her entering her mind). However, should the person be well below ground or many stories up, she would have to move closer before being able to enter their body.

If the stranger enters a state of confusion then the body transition is easier, however, a state of panic -- as mentioned before -- could cause her adverse effects which means she will go back to her own body almost immediately. If the person was in a strong emotional state when she took over, those feelings will become her own while in the body and for a short amount of time once she returns to her own.

Power Backstory -
She found out about her powers on accident when she was about ten. It was around Christmas time, so she was out with her grandmother shopping for gifts for other kids in the family. While walking down one of the isles, she saw a small set of warrior action figures which her grandmother denied her, saying that she didn't need it as she would be getting gifts from Santa and the family on Christmas. Naturally, she grew angry, dizzyingly so. Once the smoke on her brain clearly, she stood unsteady with her arms leaning on the cart. Her mood turned from anger to annoyance as she began to settle into her new situation. Confused on how she had gotten to where she was standing and how she was standing over the cart, she turned around to look at the spot where she had been previously. When she turned to find her own body looking lost on the ground behind her it startled her back into her own skin. The shopping trip ended abruptly, her grandma abandoning the cart in the aisle and dragging Eden from the store. The entire car ride home was silent on her grandma's end. No matter how many questions Eden posed, her grandma sat silent, not eve shushing her. Once they arrived home, her grandparents had to explain to her why that happened and scolded her for doing such a thing despite her not understanding how it happened. From that day forward they began to become more and more disconnected from her, so much so that she was the one getting herself ready for school each day.

Equipment & Non-powered abilities:
Ajax found herself immersed in the art of knife throwing upon entering The Scarlet Five's care. The more into it she became, the better she got at it. For hours on end, she would sit in her room and huck knives into the bookcase that she had drawn a point board on. Eventually, she was able to acquire a set of knives that she found most comfortable and suited for her as well as a roll-up case to carry them in. This case was slid into a drop bag on her left thigh and remains with her at all times. While she may not be the strongest, she enjoys sparring with people from time to time because she has fast reflexes which allow her to exhaust her opponent and overpower them.

She's a very skilled planner/schemer. Each plan she comes up with covers ever base and multiple outcomes should something unexpected happen while executing said plan. Alongside her knives, she carries a small notepad and a pen in order to dole out positions should they have to execute something on short notice. This skill is due in part to her desire to become stronger and become somebody that people didn't spit on. Originally, the planning was to keep her school work and social interactions going in an upwards direction, but it was now used to describe and execute complex plans no matter how short the notice.

-

Spoiler: Classified - File EAP25B Codename: The Base

Common Places she is seen:
Ajax will be found most commonly in one of the makeshift gyms set up within the base's tunnel system. Other times she can be found in the weapons training room that is used only for projectiles as opposed to the shooting range only offered to those with silencers. While in the gym she is either running laps or sparring with other members of TSF. Even though she isn't the strongest in hand-to-hand combat, she offers her skills to help those who need to get faster at moving or predicting an opponent's movements since she has fast reflexes. Her tactic of exhausting the other member of the fight helps the opposing party gain stamina, slowly being able to go longer and longer in these little scraps. As for the weapons room, she is either throwing, cleaning, or sharpening the knives she holds so dear.
Since she is one of The Five, a lot of time is spent in the lounge which is where they discuss most of their plans/needs. Often, she is the one tasked with planning -- which she doesn't mind -- and is left there longer than the others if there is other, more pressing matters to attend to. It's set up in a few different areas of the system so that they're not always meeting in the same area, it shifts around less often than the others, but it still shifts around. Usually one of, if not the largest open space in the section of the base where it is set up. She likes to sleep on the chair/couch in there.

How well she knows the tunnel system/base:
Her knowledge of the entire base is limited since she has never seen the entire thing. If there's a member in another area she doesn't know the way to that needs her help they will often get it via her power of possession. To her, there is no reason to learn the system as rooms will be moved from time to time into previously empty areas of the base. This way TSF lacks predictability and no group gathers in one place for too many consecutive sessions. The only rooms she cares to remember/network are the lounge, the weapons area(s), and the gym(s) since those are the only places she finds herself really needing to visit.

Relations:
The people she is closest with are the two who took in her that night in the alley. {These two can be members of the actual five or lower-level TSF members. If anyone is down to have their character(s) be one (or both) of these people let me know!!} They quickly became people for her to look up to and gave her a direction in life.
While on the streets there was a vagrant man who became like a father to her. However, a few days before her recruitment into TSF, he disappeared and left his belonging behind. She had taken his belongings with her when she became a part of TSF and sometimes went out looking for him if the opportunity arose.

She has a severe distaste for people who talk a lot and will not hesitate to let them know that.

General Information View attachment 8190
Name: Aspen V. Monluc
Alias(es):

• Marin Von Weiss (used when in TSF)
• S (used by TO)

Age: 24
Gender: Non-Binary (biologically born female)
Pronouns: They/Them
Height: 5’7" (170cm)
Weight: N/A (fluctuates depending on usage of ability)
Occupation:

• Double Agent (for The Opposition)
• Gang Leader (for The Scarlet Five)

Rank: B

(Note: Aspen is blind in their right eye, the cause behind it is unknown—it’s presumed to result from unknowingly using their ability beyond their control at a young age.)


Biography:
Aspen Viburnum Monluc was born in Newport City to a Lawyer Mother and General Surgeon Father. Both of whom would raise their child under the illusion of Newport City being safe, despite what they saw on a day-to-day basis. Aspen, however, was not as naïve as they thought and knew the city wasn’t safe. In the tragic event of their Mother’s passing, Aspen’s suspicions were reaffirmed and would ultimately cause a rift between their Father and themselves. Aspen’s hidden clairvoyance emerged through grasping their Father’s hand one night. It showed a flurry of blurred, unclear images to the eighteen-year-old Aspen. Two things were constant; a bottle of alcohol and a rope. Unfortunately, Aspen was far too late to understand what happened to them when the emergence of powered individuals was making headlines across the city. When they returned to their Father’s residence, they found… an image of their Father’s passing by suicide. At present, Aspen works as a Double Agent for The Opposition and an underling (Gang Leader) for The Scarlet Five.


Affiliation(s):

• The Opposition
• The Scarlet Five

After the emergence of their ability, Aspen took careful steps to always wear gloves when out in public. They found that grasping hands, while gloved, helped them move about society undetected and able to continue their studies at the University of Newport (UN). Eventually, the mistake of forgetting their gloves one evening, to be pulled away from their studies by other roommates, would cause them to experience two other sub-sets (past and present) of their ability when accidentally brushing the hands of a male. What showed them were unclear images of the male taking orders from another blurred individual, then the intense crash of two cars hitting together with the other car becoming mangled after being thrown from the cliff side and tumbling to the bottom of the hill. Aspen could see their Mother’s face in the broken driver’s window, blood pouring from her head, and eyes slowly dimming of life. An explosion erupted and engulfed their Mother in flames. The feeling of being burned alive and anger overwhelmed Aspen, sending the student to turn into a statue on sight.

What happened after that was something Aspen could never recall. They awoke in the headquarters of The Opposition and under the guard of a woman who revealed themselves as, “Madame Sea.” After examinations and tests, [TO] found that Aspen could no longer recall the time before waking up. If it weren’t for records on Newport’s Citizens (deceased or alive) [TO] never would’ve known their parents were both dead and Aspen was studying to become a Criminal Investigator. Which would ultimately benefit them after revealing themselves as The Opposition and to groom Aspen in becoming another Agent within their rankings. Although it was difficult for an amnesiac powered individual to adjust to live with regular civilians, Aspen broke through the barriers of regarded [TO] agents after befriending Madame Sea.

Madame Sea is an influential council member, who would take Aspen under her wing to train and tutor them in fighting, manoeuvring, and control over their ability – ultimately, mastering it within three year’s time. Except for sending them out in the field to collect intel, Aspen was proving to be a worthy asset to The Opposition. Once entering their twenties, Aspen was chosen to become a Double Agent, their primary goal: to learn the faces of [TSF]. Although they weren’t the only Double Agent [TO] had, they chose Aspen for their unique ability to collect information from the past, present, and future. Once Aspen successfully infiltrated their ranks as a petty criminal, [TO] gave them a new identity; Marin Von Weiss. As Marin, they would slowly climb the ranks of [TSF] and eventually become a lower-tier Leader within their set hierarchy. As Marin Von Weiss, they were the Leader of the Intelligence Division and were hardly incorrect when predicting the outcome of future events and/or collecting intel from the past or present of an individual [TSF] wanted information on.

Spoiler: The Opposition Classified Files—"S"

Power(s): Clairvoyance

S's clairvoyance first emerged at seventeen. Whilst a University student, S was recruited into The Opposition after being saved by MS. Throughout S’s training and extended control of their ability, it was found that the Clairvoyant can:

• See into an individual’s mind – past, present, and future’s that could/can happen.
• Can influence an individual’s choices – depending on the individual’s level of trust or clear conscience (Note: S can force their way into one’s mind and influence them anyway.)
• Make an individual’s possible future come true in exchange for important memories.
• Can obtain intelligence and key information within an individual’s past, presence, or future.

While S is a valuable asset, their ability also has major flaws which could prove to be a good or bad result as a Double Agent for [TO]. Those flaws include (but not limited to):

• Weight Loss. Can lose between 1~100 lbs/kgs on duration of ability.
• Memory Loss. Pending on how long S uses their ability, an (in)significant amount of their memories become loss. There is no known method or cure to retrieve their memories back. (Note: S does not recall much of their childhood, which is why it's advised for the Agent to not use their ability for long periods of time unless it's absolutely necessary.)
• Life Span Loss. The span of S’s life is (in)significantly lost (i.e. seconds, mins, hrs etc) and can amount up to days, months, and (presumably) years.
• Energy Loss. S immediately loses all energy, no matter how short or long at the use of their ability. In notable extended (i.e. an hour to several hours etc) use of their ability, it was found that their body turns into a statue for a small and/or undetermined amount of time.

When S uses their ability, they become paralysed and rigid in stature. Their eyes haze over and become milky white. (Note: Do not worry in extended usage of their ability when they ultimately become a statue.)

Equipment & Non-Powered Abilities:

• S’s Father used to use Acupuncture Needles when their body became too stressed to study. Through hand-to-hand combat, it was an exceptional ability to use when able to get close within an individual’s proximity. S could pinpoint weak spots of the human body and render them paralysed through blocking their “chi” as they called it.
• S is not physically strong, but they are a force to reckon with when realising their agility to slip from their opponent’s grasp and/or usage of acupuncture needles which (may or may not) contain poison laced in its pricking point.
• S is provided with the essentials by [TO] when going on missions/going into [TSF].

Other:

• S changed their name to Marin Von Weiss after positively joining [TSF] and securing an essential spot as an under boss to the key [criminals] that [TO] is after and ultimate goal is to bring down.
• Updated Notes: Refer to Marin as “S” here on out - MS
• Updated Notes #2: S does not retrieve orders directly from the key pillars running [TSF]. Is advised to continue in their mission until ultimately discovered or death occurs.
• [IMPORTANT] Updated Notes #3: S can and will go without reporting back to base for extended periods of time. Do not contact them unless it is absolutely necessary. [TSF] are very sharp individuals to lower-tier "Leaders" within their set hierarchy.

Relations:

• Madame Sea – A Mother figure and ultimately the person who Aspen looks to for advice.
• The Opposition – Friendly/Trusted. Thanks to them, Aspen could control their ability and learn about the cause of their Mother’s death.
• [REDACTED] – A figure from [TSF] they secretly admire, despite being enemies on the surface.
• The Scarlet Five – Distrusted/Enemy. Were responsible for their Mother's death.
• Deceased Parents – Aspen loved them both dearly and like others in [TO] hopes to bring [TSF] to justice.

Other:

• Aspen is blinded in their right eye and can usually be seen an eye-patch while in [TSF] or a pair of sunglasses.
• Madame Sea was their trainer/teacher when they first appeared in [TO]. In which, they ultimately look to MS for advice and sees her as a Mother figure.

General InformationView attachment 8191
Name: N/A
Alias(es): Madame Sea, MS
Age: N/A (It’s rude to ask for a Lady’s age y’know? – MS)
Gender: Female
Height: 5’5” (165cm)
Weight: [REDACTED] (Also rude to ask about a Lady's weight. Who's writing these profiles? I need to talk to them. – MS)
Occupation:

• Council Member of The Opposition
• Owner of Le Faunt’s Herbs & Oddities

Rank: A


Biography: Madame Sea was born on the Canary Islands of Paradisio, off the coast of Newport City. Her parents fled Paradisio once Prime Minister Laurent de La Monte came to power and passed the Witch Eradication Act (WEA) to rid the islands of alleged “witches.” Madame Sea was raised in Newport City by her two refugee parents. Between ages of her childhood to her early twenties is a time she does not talk about ever. In the photograph (pictured right) Madame Sea became a Hostess for a now defunct bar and was also a dancer before ultimately quitting the Entertainment Industry to open (and currently own) La Faunt’s Herbs & Oddities with her deceased significant other. Madame Sea currently owns and operates Le Faunt's Herbs & Oddities and is a Council Member in The Opposition.

(Note: She is not of the original founding members, but one of the few who were notable in finding its foundation within its early days of creation. Ultimately, helping with structuring its current Council and setting up tests to any initiates who submitted their application to [TO].)


Affiliation(s):

• The Opposition

Madame Sea, alongside other notable members, helped form The Opposition in response to the emergence of The Scarlet Five. Her reasoning was the same as others who grew weary of powered individuals wreaking havoc on their city of Newport.

Spoiler: The Opposition Files – "Madame Sea"

In [TO] there are a rare few with powers. Madame Sea let hers be known during the creation of [TO]. From observation and training, what we found were:

Power(s): Plant Growth

Madame Sea has already mastered and controlled her ability to influence the growth of plant life. Although, the true extent of her ability is unknown, Madame Sea revealed two other sub-sets of power known as: Plant Manipulation and Plant Enhancement. Through observation, here’s what we found:

• Accelerated Plant Growth – Ability to accelerate the growth of plants and other plants to bloom instantaneously.
• (See above) Plant Manipulation – Ability to use plants to grow from small or abnormally large and use their vines, stems, roots to her will.
• (See Above) Plant Enhancement – Ability to mature plants in moments, cause them to flower and produce (includes fruits and general plant food) in abundance.

Her limitations include:

• Unable to create plants, only can accelerate the growth of seeds and would need fertile soil.
• Limited to her emotional state, whether she’s feeling angry, sad, happy etc. it will reflect in the plants that she manipulates.
• Unable to manipulate plants that aren’t native to the area she’s in and/or native to her.
• Due to age, Madame Sea’s power is limited to the reserved stamina/energy she uses.

Equipment & Non-Powered Abilities:

• Madame Sea is familiar with poisons and plant-life that is able to render the human body useless/paralysed. (Note: Aspen learned her ability to work with poisons from MS)
• Madame Sea is a Botanist and uses her knowledge of Botany to help with the biochemicals used within plants and raw materials such as metal, sand etc. to help the others in building new ways of warfare against [TSF]
• Madame Sea has powerful connections in the Entertainment Industry of Newport City and uses those connections to help The Opposition. She's also known to be quite the charmer.

Relationships:

• The Opposition – Trusted/Friendly.
• The Scarlet Five – Distrusted/Enemy.
• Council of [TO] – Most Trusted/People she loves dearly.
• The Police of Newport City – Neutral. Particularly never gave her any trouble, but doesn’t believe in their methods of keeping the city safe.
• Unnamed (Deceased) Parents – Her idols/people who helped her get away from a tyranny happening in their native country.
• Aspen – Child Figure. Madame Sea is fond of Aspen and ultimately sees them as the child they would never have.
• [REDACTED] – Lover/Partner-In-Marriage. A figure she will never talk about, but it is obvious how much longing is in her eyes when the subject of love comes up.

Other:

• Madame Sea is not fond of digital photography and/or anyone taking her photo without her consent. Any attempt to photograph her will result in punishment of becoming immobile for an entire day or until the culprit has learned their lesson.
• In [TO], she's seen as a Mother Figure and is usually seen giving advice to those who seek it out from her. Otherwise, she usually leaves everyone alone.
• Madame Sea's real name is unknown and she prefers to keep it that way. Although, files on her origins lie in the Archives of Paradisio's Files on its citizens (both alive and deceased).
• Madame Sea's true age is [REDACTED] but would- (Note: What did I say about asking for a Lady's age? I can see all the files y'know? – MS)
• Updated Notes: There're still non-powered individuals who express their disdain toward those within their ranks and MS is no exception.

 

[Draco Shadowdragon]

Name: Tharin Mynex
Alias: Parasite/Leech
Age: 37
Height: 5’6
Weight 142 lbs


Bio: Tharin grew up an orphan. His mother died in child birth. His father not being able to look at him, due to him being the reason she died in his eyes, gave him up to the orphanage. He’s known about his power his entire life, as he’s had to take special precautions, such as wearing gloves and making sure not to touch people if he could help it, to make sure that he didn’t hurt those he held close. It wasn’t long though before people began to cast him out as being to dangerous to be around. Tharin left the orphanage around the age of 16. He fell into a life of crime in order to survive.

He started to crave power as time passed. With power he could rule the city and he wouldn’t have to merely survive anymore. During his time on the streets, around the age of 27, he met four other people with similar interests that would one day form The Scarlet Five with him. Now in the present, after the organization was formed, he’s chilled out a little but the thirst for power still remains.

Affiliations: He helped form The Scarlet Five. Back in the day four others and him had met (not necessarily at the same time) and after a few years together formed the organization in order to gain the power that they would need to rule the city. He contributed by making it a place that accepted people from all walks of life and making it a close knit group. He would try to make sure to meet every member that joined (feel free to use this to have your character know mine if you want). He wanted to provide what he lacked while growing up here.

Spoiler: Tharin Police File

Powers: Tharin has the power to drain people of their life force, but he has to be touching them through skin to skin contact in order to do so. Draining someone of their life force also works to heal his own wounds but he can't heal severed limbs/organs. This is not a power he can control, it’s always active in fact. The victim doesn’t die as soon as they are touched, it’s more like their life is slowly suctioned out until they break contact with him It would take about half an hour to an hour to kill someone this way. Touching someone doesn’t physically alter the victims appearance.


Equipment and non-powered abilities: Tharin carries around a pistol, strapped to his chest under his vest/coat, and a knife strapped to his shoulder under whatever article of clothing he’s wearing. He is experienced in street fighting and picked up a little teakwondo from a fellow member of the organization.


Relations: Tharin is closest to the other four members that formed the organization. Everyone that is part of the organization is dear to him. He dislikes mainly the people that get in the way of his goal.

[Draco Shadowdragon]

Name: Selene Delmore
Alias: Siren
Age: 24
Height: 6’1
Weight: 164 lbs

Bio: Selene grew up in a peaceful and stable home. She had a great childhood and had many friends. As she grew up though many of her friends would exit her life. Music would, in her times of sorrow, be her crutch as most of her friends had either moved away or gotten out of touch with her. She was so enthralled by music that she dreamed of being either a singer or musician. She would find out later, as she was listening to music, that she could create literal music from thin air as she imagined herself playing the piano and was startled when the sound came out of nowhere. Magic wasn’t unheard of so she figured that to be it. It was also the only explanation she could think of.

Then one day it happened. She turned on the TV and saw one of the few friends she had had left headlining as a victim for a murder committed by an organization called The Scarlet Five( feel free to have your character be the one to have committed the murder). Unable to believe it she picked up the phone and called her friends number and after a full day of trying to get in touch with her she was forced to come to terms that her friend was no more. This undoubtedly was what drove her to join The Opposition.


Affiliation: Selene is a member of The Opposition. She became a member by going to the police and having them introduce her to the group. After meeting her and seeing her power they decided to let her join but warned her about revenge and that she should not seek it.

Spoiler: The Opposition Files - Selene

Powers: Selene can create and manipulate sound frequency and volume. She can tune sounds to a relaxing tone that will put most people to sleep or tune sounds to tone that will make your ears bleed. If she makes the sound frequency low enough she can potentially cause fatal internal damage. If she makes the sound frequency high enough it won’t be heard by the human ear but it can be used for echolocation. She can mute sounds or amplify sounds. After using her power she becomes nauseous and exhausted at a ratio depending on the intensity and amount of time her power was used. The longer she uses her power the more nauseous and tired she gets. She can't manipulate sounds that other people make; for example she can't manipulate someone's heartbeat sound. She can't make the frequency/volume of a sound extremely high or low unless she is under extreme pressure such as being in a rage or extreme mourning.

She creates sound herself and can tune any sound that has been made except sounds made from other people. she can't fo example kill someone with their own heartbeat. She can tune sounds as high or low as she wants but the higher/lower the sound goes the more energy it takes to do so. so theoretically she could destroy several city blocks worth of windows but doing so would overexert her, not to mention that morally she would never do such a thing because she doesn't want to hurt innocent people. I will put a power cap on it to wear she can only use the extremely loud and high/low frequencies when she is in rage or extreme mourning. She can manipulate volume as well.

Equipment and non-powered abilities: Selene knows that at times her power may not be enough and carries daggers strapped to her lower legs

Relations: She holds everyone in The Opposition in high respect and sees them all as family. She highly dislikes The Scarlet Five for what they did to her friend.

[Draco Shadowdragon]

Name: Hazel Lynn/ Calista Lynn
Alias: Hazel, The Twin Soul
Age: 28
Height: 5’4
Weight: 109 lbs.

Bio: Hazel was born in Dreznor, south of Newport, but moved to Newport at the young age of 7 with her parents in hopes of a better life. Her entire she has known that there was another person occupying her body. From a young age Hazel and Calista have worked together on everything. She had the best grades in school and even was part of the Student Council. Their future looked bright. Both made sure to keep the fact that Hazel actually had two souls a secret.

When they were 18 they went out of the city to explore the foot of the mountain just outside of Newport. After hours of wandering around they started to hear whining. It wasn’t long until they made a rare discovery. They found a wolf pup with horns starting to grow. They’d never seen such a thing before. The pup didn’t seem to be doing so well though so they took the pup into town to a vet. The vet was as surprised as they were by the site and agreed to treat the animal’s wounds. They decided when the wounds were healed that they’d raise it. They decided to name it Felix.

One day they went to go visit her parents and the door was broken in. With their heart racing they entered the house. What they found horrified them. Her parents had been ripped apart and thrown about the room. Later they would find out that The Scarlet Five was responsible for the murder. They decided that the organization must be stopped and gathered like minded people, forming what would become The Opposition. Naturally they would train Felix to help. The symbol of The Opposition would actually become an insignia of Felix.

Spoiler: Felix

View attachment 8192
Felix is twice as strong and fast as a regular wolf but isn't as agile. He is very intelligent, observant, and cunning. Because of his size he must eat twice as much food as a regular wolf.

Affiliations: Hazel, The Twin Soul founded The Opposition with a group of like-minded people. As the years passed the organization grew until it was almost as big as The Scarlet Five in numbers. She wanted to make sure that those recruited were suitable for the job and created tests that would determine what job was best for them and if they were suitable to be part of the organization.
She works with the police to get information on The Scarlet Five

Spoiler: The Opposition Classified Files-Hazel, The Twin Soul

Powers: Other than having two souls Hazel/Calista also have a resistance to mind manipulation. She is twice as resistant to mind manipulation as the regular person.



Equipment and Non-Powered Abilities: Hazel/Calista wears a bullet proof vest underneath her clothing. She carries two pistols that she has become very adept at using, almost never missing her target. Strapped to each wrist she has a blade that when she clenches her fist the blade pops out (similar to how they do with Baraka from Mortal Kombat) and she’s adept at using them.

Relations: They care deeply for those that have joined her in The Opposition. They have a neutral view on the police. They want to see The Scarlet Five brought to justice.

[Teeloffel]

Moonstar

Name/ Title / Alias:
His real name is unknown. Known only as Moonstar.

Biography:
Moonstar was once a young boy living in the streets of Newport. He had a loving family compromised of him, his mother, his father, and his younger brother. Moonstar was always special and not like the others. He was interested in occultism, magic, tarot cards, and would get picked on in school. His father was the one who introduced Moonstar to Mysticism as he had a large library with many books on the topic. There was one book that he had locked away behind a metal gate. Moonstar was especially curious about this one and would often stare at it from outside the gate. It called to him, in strange tones and voices. "Touch us", "Read me" "Our power is beyond this world...". This scared the young child and he would never go to close to it again.

One day in the playground at school some bullies were standing around in a circle talking down to him. He thought back to the books he was reading with his father. In the corner of his eye, he could spot it. It was a large black mass with no real form. It had no legs, arms, or eyes. It was just... darkness. Complete and utter darkness. In the following seconds, the sky would darken and invisible tentacles would drag the bullies down into the Earth. Far, far below the surface. The smell of burnt flesh filled the air, blood flowed into the streets and he could hear them. The screams. They were no more.

A few days later his family was sitting around the fireplace when a small blaze jumped onto the carpet in front of them. His father and mother had dozed off and his brother was occupied with a game console. Moonstar observed the blaze taking form in front of him capturing the whole carpet and setting it ablaze. Moments later the house was a fiery hell. Something occurred. His family was gone. Navigating through the burning wreckage which once was his house was no easy task. Searching the burnt down logs recovered nothing. The firefighters told the young child that it would seem he had lived on his own for many years and that no corpses were found in the wreckage. The only thing left was a heavy, reinforced book.


Affiliation:
Following the destruction of his family and home he ended up in the child-care system. He was kicked out of various institutions for "Violent behavior". This lead to him ending up on the streets. alone, poor and weak he was often approached by strangers. He learned the ins and outs of the street. Eventually, he forgot his real name and only went by Moonstar. He was a petty thief, stealing only to make by. One day someone approached him. They called to him with his real name and promised him the explanation of the house fire. There was one condition though. He had to join The Scarlet Five and track down other members that have according to the cloaked man "Overwhelming power much like your own."

Moonstar is a foe to be reckoned with. His powers are mysterious and unknown to us at the Opposition but what we know is that he fears Ultra-violet light. This disables most of his powers and puts him in a neutralized state. Moonstar's powers as far as we know are the control of an entity from beyond this dimension and use their powers to his will. This entity is currently unnamed and gathering information on it is crucial to neutralizing the Scarlet Five.

The powers of this "entity" seem to be magical in nature. Almost all manmade weapons have little to no effect on the entity and even hitting the target is hard because of its speed. Much of the reason Moonstar isn't the biggest threat of the Five is his reluctance to take part in large-scale battles. Though this seems to be changing.

The Entity is referred to as "Him" and is an extradimensional creature from beyond this world. It can manifest wherever Moonstar can see or sense (smell, hearing) and can travel 150m inside that zone. This changes if The Entity is retracted from Moonstar and summoned elsewhere. The Entity can catch fast projectiles but struggles with barrages of enemy fire, EX: A sniper shot can be deflected but an infantry squad will at least hit Moonstar once or twice. Moonstar himself is as weak as an average human and can be killed by the most things any other human can, although he can use The Entity to enhance much of his missing physical attributes.

The Entity allows Moonstar to jump from buildings to buildings or from alley to alley. The tallest he can jump is 20 meters. The Entity can also enhance his speed by propelling him from the ground, although, he gains much more speed from being able to ricochet off walls. This takes some time to prepare and he is weak in the initial startup of the move. He can travel speeds of upwards of 50km/h if enough power is used.

Now onto the more metaphysical aspects of The Entity. Originating from another dimension gives Moonstar some other abilities.

• Void

This ability allows Moonstar to command The Entity to grab or capture a certain projectile, person or ability, and place into the Void which essentially deletes it from existence. This power demands insatiable amounts of power and corrupts Moonstar's mind for every time it is used. More and more of his humanity is erased for each time he uses this power, therefore he only uses it in desperate scenarios. This power can pull in multiple items and people but only when Moonstar experiences great trauma such as Death, extreme pain, or a nervous breakdown. If that were to occur it would certainly kill him and whatever "The Entity" is would take over. This place can also be accessed by Moonstar, although he is unsure if he able to get outside of it.

You can imagine something like this.

• Entity Control

This power is outlined previously in this article. The Entity has supernatural strength, comparable to that of a military-grade tank, easily rupturing human bodies as well as metal doors and walls. A weakness of this entity is that it likes to play with its "food" before killing them. It will also cancel its attacks if it feels as if it's "owner" (Moonstar) is being damaged. We can also assume The Entity is independent rather than a part of Moonstar himself.

The influence and power that being in the Scarlet Five gives you are also given to Moonstar so his respect on the street is not to be denied. Moonstar is special in the sense that most gangsters and underlings do not recognize him but only the sound of his power. Moonstar himself is weak and can't fight but has picked up the crossbow as a way to take out targets that are rather far away.

[TMITM]

File #S14
Subject name: Unknown
Alias: Blindfold
{Note: He has shared that he had a name, but has not shared what it is - we did not have time to gain enough trust before the [REDACTED] incident.}



Biography:
All his family has been corrupted by a mysterious entity known as TMITM for reasons unknown to us at this time. After living on the street for a while, we picked him up and included him in our ranks partially for research and weapon development of his unique abilities. However, the subject, after the [REDACTED] incident, in which case the subject was used as chaos control for a local gang, developed signs of more severe PTSD, and blamed the Scarlet Five, under which he was employed at that time, for the numerous criminal and civilian casualties. After the subject's departure, the subject joined the ranks of the Opposition. He is now considered an enemy and must be recaptured as soon as possible for further research.
{Note: The subject is to be recaptured or killed at ALL COSTS. Under no circumstances is he to remain in The Opposition.}

Affiliation: Opposition - previously of The Scarlet Five
He has expressed, on multiple and numerous occasions since the [REDACTED] incident, that he is set fully against the Scarlet Five and it's leaders for what we have done in our research.

-

Spoiler: Subject's Abilities

His first power is Symbiotic Constructs, in which he can manipulate the ink-like substance that leaks from his eyes to make makeshift weapons, assist him in fighting or doing superhuman feats, launching projectiles, and healing. All of these things create strain and if the strain exceeds a certain amount, he will have an attack akin to a seizure; where all of his powers go out of control. It is very dangerous to be close to him in this situation.

Spoiler: Research of Ink

We have conducted a long, arduous, and largely unfruitful study of the mysterious substance that is the source for his supernatural and, as of yet, inexplicable power set. It seems that the substance emits an interference that makes all things go on the fritz - a sort of bad luck radius. Depending on the mood of the subject, It's power can range from barely noticeable to completely crippling in some cases.
The substance can range from extremely flexible to iron-hard qualities and can range between the two at incredible speeds. It is made out of cells, making it organic, but it cannot be confirmed if it has a mind of its own or possesses the qualities of a human being. It can be likened to a symbiote or parasite, living off of the subject and taking a share of his food.

His second power is of particular interest to us; contrary to popular belief, humans see, and think, in four dimensions. Length, Height, Width, and Time. The subject sees only in three - seeing everything in time at once. For the subject, it is very disorientating even at the best of times, so he prefers to stay in one moment, based on the things he hears.
The third is some telekinesis, which usually manifests itself during his attacks as a wide blast of force.

Equipment & Non-powered abilities:

The subject knows many forms of martial arts, including karate, Kung Fu, (Including Wing Chun and Tai Chi) and Shinkendo. He has also expressed an interest in modern Ninjutsu, but we have declined.

Spoiler: References for Martial Arts

Wing Chun & Karate

As you can see, Wing Chun is a form of Kung Fu that is close combat, with solid, upright stances. Wing Chun's movements are also designed to be both offensive an defensive at the same time, lacking the extravagant kicks and punches designed to knock opponents off of horses and such because it developed as a street defense, fighting in alleyways and such. It's attacks are aimed to disable the opponent, although not afraid to hurt them.
Karate is relatively choppier (And Japanese), with longer range attacks such as flying kicks, punches, etc. It also focuses more on physical strength, but not so much that older people cannot use it.
Wing Chun & Tai Chi Chuan

Tai Chi is the ultimate refinement of the Taoist philosophy. You may have heard of Tai Chi as something akin to yoga; and it is, but it is a martial art. They are fighting moves, just slowed down.
Plus, Tai Chi is nasty to go up against. It places more emphasis on flow and balance instead of strength, so they can fight longer and smarter. They can set you up subtly and bring you down with one move.
Tai Chi places more emphasis on joint locks and bending a force away from you instead of blocking it directly.

{Note: We tried to teach him Akido, but he prefers a more direct approach.}

Relations:
He does not have a very good opinion of the Scarlet Five. He still retains friendships from the organization but dislikes the organization itself.

Name/Title/Alias:
Trinity (Nova)

Spoiler: Biography

Biography:
Trinity was raised in an upstanding upper-class Christian family and was exceptionally smart from a young age. Her father was a scientist and her mother, a lawyer. To say that she was daddy's girl was an understatement. She loved all the science for kids kits dad would bring home for her. He'd read, sing, and play with her any chance that he could, even when he was too busy. Mother was always buried in work, and although she didn't see or hear much from her, their relationship wasn't too strained, although it had its ups and downs, like any other. Grandpa (Maternal) was a cop in the force, and she'd love to hear all the wild, on the job stories he had to tell about him and his partner from days long past. Everyone thought she'd have a career in the sciences when she kept placing first in her school's science fairs, but she abandoned most of these interests when she reached her teens, becoming a cheerleader and joining track. Still keeping up with her grades to make her parents happy, as their marriage was falling apart, she lost interest in participating in family affairs and no longer kept track of their lives.

Trinity was out late at a party with some friends when they decided to go for a joyride in the country. Even if she had a bad feeling, she went with them. Needless to say, the driver lost control of the car and flipped it, landing hard against a tree on Trinity's passenger side. She has rushed to the hospital hours away via helicopter where they induced a coma. With many broken bones and a traumatic brain injury, it was believed she wouldn't make it, but her father reached into all of his connections. For a deal, he was offered life-saving treatment; new, cutting-edge, nanotechnology. It wasn't a matter of if for her family, but of when, and how much. The treatment saved Trinity's life. She soon went back to her old life as she healed, but she soon began to see changes in herself as she entered high school.

Trinity was always strong, but not that strong. She was always, fast, and smart, but not quite as much as she was becoming. Cheerleading in autumn, soccer in spring, and took as many college credit classes as she could. It was frightening but mainly exciting for the teen, who thought she could keep it a secret while striving to become the school's valedictorian, an easy success, while graduating early. Luckily for her parents she was accepted into her chosen college, allowing them the illusion that it was her choice to begin with. So long as she believed she was making the decisions for herself, they could still control her, which was better than the alternative....



WORK IN PROGRESS!

Spoiler: The Opposition Files: “Nova”

Powers: Nano-Active Blood

• Strengths:
  • Super strength: Super strength is a major plus when it comes to being a hero. Without it, Trinity would be at best an annoying thorn in the side of evildoers everywhere, but with it, she’s a bonafide force to be reckoned with! She can lift 2000 lbs/907 kg, and punch with that much force, which is the equivalent of 8896 newton.
  • Flight: Best. Super. Power. Ever. The only reason it isn’t at #1 is that practically, as a superhero, it can be lived without. Still, the ability to soar in the sky just through sheer force of will is a fantasy most people share. There’s certain independence that comes with the idea of flight. The sky is no longer the limit! Can fly on par to her super speed.
  • SuperSpeed: Who wouldn't want to be able to get where they need to go in a snap? Trinity can outpace a bullet! That’s 1800 miles per hour, or 2600 feet per second. Her speed translates to other things like reading, giving her the ability to finish off an entire set of encyclopedias in seconds.
  • Superhearing: Super hearing is definitely a must-have if one wants to be a true superhero. How else can Trinity hear the cry of innocent civilians from miles away? There's also the added bonus of being able to snoop on the bad guys as they cook up their evil plots and plans. Limit: 5 mile radius.
  • Superhealing: Because the nano-active blood is constantly regenerating and rejuvenating, Trinity can quickly recover damaged body parts.
• Weaknesses:
  • Nanomachines may overheat with overuse, causing weakness and fatigue.
  • If Nanites are destroyed/removed, the user may lose any special abilities gained from said nanites.
  • She may be overwhelmed by supersonic blasts or too many overwhelming noises all at once.
  • If she uses her speed too much she can become drained, and her reflexes are dulled.
  • Being too strong and accidentally hurting others, breaking things, etc. or not being strong enough and being pulverized by someone far stronger.
  • Extreme, critical wounds take longer to heal and take much energy, weakening the nanomachines, and thus, the rest of her abilities.
  • Nanomachines are radioactive and may be causing Trinity damage over time, making her very sick if not repaired/resolved/removed, and soon.

Equipment & Non-powered abilities:

• Empathy & Compassion
• High School Education
• College Degree
• A wealthy family with many connections
• Hand-to-hand combat: basic kickboxing, basic kung fu, still learning, and thus, still somewhat sloppy, and mainly power focused, rather than balanced.
• Weapon's license & training: basic knowledge, still sloppy, still training.
• Bodysuit: A protective, powered bodysuit that complements the nanomachines in her blood, as well as Trinity's public "HERO" look.
  • The Smart Helmet allows her to scan her surroundings and The Opposition to communicate with her, and transfer information.
• Transforming motor vehicle: Her way of getting around the city just as Trinity.

Name/Title/Alias: "Bluebird"

Biography: "Bluebird" is obviously a pseudonym. His life started as an innocent lad who was the son of two parents, both possessing dangerous powers. His father had the ability to create and masterfully create and manipulate inorganic materials like metals, plastic, and glass, while his mother had the ability to use mysterious symbols to warp reality and an innate immunity to these very symbols. They first met coincidentally in an abandoned bunker whilst trying to hide from politicians that seeked to abuse their powers, and this very meeting led to a love story that led to "Bluebird's" birth. Eventually, they began to settle in a village where they could not be found.

As he grew, his parents discovered that he had inherited both of his parents' abilities, albeit in a weaker form. Grateful that they have a child which had the combined potential of both parents, they appreciated his powers and trained him to enrich them; while finding ways to work around the fact that he only half the power of each parents (though frankly, they found it very difficult). During this period of enrichment, his father found out that he had developed an interest with technology, tinkering around with the machinery within the remodeled bunker. He took this interest as an opportunity to turn the normally destructive and forceful power into one that creates. Meanwhile, his mother did not succeed much, only managing to teach the art of using symbols that only work when viewed in certain manners (the simplest ones she could use). He lived a life he sees as perfectly normal, having used his abilities wisely and having an excellent academic life (though his parents have warned him not to trust anyone easily).

At school, he is often seen as the smart guy, receiving both admiration and ridicule from different students. He only has an extremely tight group of friends during his school life due to his habit of being suspicious towards othersand his eccentricities resulting to his father's intense support on his interests. Eventually, he took a technology-based course in college to further hone is abilities.

Fast forward to the days when he had finished college.... One of the people in the village became very envious of the seemingly-perfect life of his family and began to spread a rumor that his parents were wanted criminals and that they are teaching him how to be like them; then claiming that the only way to stop then is to put them to death, and that he is simply an advocate of good. He easily convinced the dim-witted villagers and this quickly lead to them teaming up and hiring another superpowered person to destroy them. When they suddenly began to charge into the household with destructive intent, his parents sacrificed themselves for the safety of their son, who managed to flee from the scene as he slowly became an aged orphan. This event not only gave him a worsened distrust towards people, but also developed a strong hatred towards the mainstream society in general.

Affiliation: Scarlet Five (S-Rank)
+ Recruitment Story: Prior to his recruitment, he survived by taking over an abandoned factory, tinkering with its mechanisms to produce consumables and counterfeit products and brainwashing homeless people with symbols to serve as resource-gatherers, laborers, and as backup in combat. Eventually, he slowly began picking on criminals and began to reverse-engineer their weapons and experiment on them, to the point that he had mastered the ability to swiftly create guns, blades and explosives. He also learned how to set traps and engage in armed combat from slaughtering countless dangerous intruders his underlings cannot overcome at that time.

Eventually, a member of the Scarlet Five in its early stages heard of rumors of a phantom factory with a vague government (any of you could fill this place) and ventured into it. This very member managed to get through all improvised security measures set and gained his attention. This is the first time in years when "Bluebird" have seen an intruder that survived all the measures that he had set. Much to his surprise, this stranger gave him the offer to "one of the High Chairs" in the criminal organization and proving that the group could be trusted by appealing to every interests and having every concern of him covered up with a concrete answer.

"Bluebird" eventually knew that they are truly on the same side of the coin and joined the Scarlet Five with all hesitation wiped out, giving them free access to the factory too. Right now, he is a member of the original Scarlet Five, all while retaining his dictator-like authority over whoever he converts.

+ Opinion on the Opposition - He views them as hypocrites, only asking the help of superpowered people because he and the rest of The Scarlet Five exists. He believes that if The Scarlet Five ever dissolved, or even pretended to be, those very people they call as "heroes" will eventually be outcast by normals who always want to be better than them. He seeks to form a meritocracy to eradicate the stagnatory mindset of the mindless.

+ Opinion on the Police Force - Although he does have a slight admiration on their previously demonstrated ability to track him down once and their rationality compared to the more impulsive and radical opposition, he ultimately views them as a free source of personnel.

Spoiler: CLASSIFIED INFORMATION - Agent Joe's Report

Powers:

+ Technomancy - "Bluebird" is highly capable of creating technology from absolutely nothing, specializing in weapons. The time spent in creating objects strongly vary depending on his familiarity towards them and the complexity of the object itself. For example, it would take a few seconds for him to create a glass landmine or a pressure plate, and he can produce objects like knives, wires, and bullets near-instantly.

His ability is limited when it comes to producing unfamiliar objects or extemely complex ones, like a computer or a cellphone. He also cannot continuously produce objects without getting exhausted, due to the precision and mental effort required for each object.

There is no hard counter for this.

+ Cognitohazard Creation - Another dangerous property of "Bluebird" is that he is capable of creating cognitohazardous symbols to directly alter affect those who percieve it. Certain symbols have requirements for activation.

Here are the symbols that are confirmed to be associated with him so far:
1. "Third Eye" - Cognitohazard nicknamed for its hallucinogenic properties. It requires to be drawn, painted, or printed unto a physical medium to be effective. Its effect is said to only occur when multiple smaller objects are partially concealing it from the viewer's line of sight. One notable sighting is during [REDACTED] when multiple instances of the symbol was installed behind several small bushes as graffiti overnight, partially and then displayed to a crowd. The resulting confusion resulted to a massive brawl that cause around 60 injuries and 20 deaths. The entire wall had to be demolished via rockets deployed from several feet away, due to closer exposure affecting personnel.

Due to its nature and the way it is commonly deployed, it is impossible to know its true nature.

2. "Supernova" - Cognitohazard named for its spontaneous nature. It requires its victims to be in a state of shock for its effects to take place. Its effect only occurs when it is displayed in a manner that it will constantly be a flashing image. Viewing a flashhing image involving this symbol while in a state of shock results to full body pain and seizures of varying lengths, with weaker victims suffering worsened conditions. One notable sighting occurred in a moviehouse. Halfway throughout the movie, the symbol was abruptly shown as a flashing image with a scare chord, causing its effects to occur on almost every viewer involved. The team sent to escort the people and disable the film were also affected, severely delaying operations. Power had to be cut off for the operation to properly proceed. One fifths of the recovered victims suffered from severe brain damage. All unaffected people admitted to be not paying attention to the movie at all prior to the event.

Due to everyone who saw any released instances being unable to recall its appearance clearly, it is currently impossible to record the symbol.

3. Unnamed Symbol - Its effects only occur when an complete instance of the symbol remains within eyesight for a varying degree of time depending on the mental fortitude of the viewer (ex. weak-willed, dim-witted, and desperate individuals take at least 20-30 minutes while strong-minded and powerful individuals like Agent Joe would need hours to be fully affected.) At least a minute of broken visual contact is required to reset the timer of its effects.

Spoiler: The Symbol in Question

[REDACTED]

This symbol is regarded as completely safe, with no known negative effects. Positive effects include enhanced combat efficiency, inability to feel pain and unwavering loyalty to authorities. This symbol is highly recommended to be tested on less competent officers.

Spoiler: Questionable Data. Retained for Further Investigation

Report submitted by Agent Brandon

[Date Classified] - We were fooled. He fooled us all. We attempted to weaponize this sigil in hopes that we could take down The Scarlet Five. The entire squad dedicated to exposing it to our forces ended up marching into our office and slaughtering every officer in present. We stood no match. They all disappeared without a trace, and same goes for Agent Joe and the other Agents directly linked to him. That motherfucker turned an entire squad into moles with that goddamn sigil. We're looking for ways to get them back. For now, we have to cope with this massive disaster that will definitely ruin our PR. I doubt that I would fully recover from this jarring event

[Date Classified] - We captured on of our lost Agents after we pursued him after a mass shooting. We are now finding ways to see if we can cure our Agents from this curse. Medication and amnestics are currently ineffective, so we are resorting to checking if abilities that can tap on the mind are effective in reversing its effects.

[Date Classified] - We were fucking stupid. All studies on treating the condition should be halted RIGHT NOW. I repeat, RIGHT NOW.

[Date Classified] - We lost our hired telepath, and several key officers. It appears that trying to communicate, let alone touch the mind of affected personnel results to being infected within ONE MINUTE. We had to kill him after he had used his powers to infect them, probably by forcing the symbol into their brain. The only solution for this is death.

[Date Classified] - We had a public exposure event involving the damn symbol. A member was sent to blast the wall with a rocket it without hesitation. Luckily, no one seemed to have turned into killers.

[Date Classified] - We had to deliver that guy amnestics. And we had to amnesticize everyone present in the event. We saw him trying to draw the symbol and studying it. We're glad that we found about this on time. Soon enough, we would amnesticize ourselves too.

[Date Classified] - We managed to cure ourselves of this more benign stage of infection, but we are not truly safe. They are coming back in larger numbers and we haven't even fully recovered. If you should ever discover this hidden document, tell my family that I loved them.

Update: Any person fully infected become fully loyal to The Scarlet Five, specifically to Bluebird. Anyone who breaks visual contact from the symbol would suffer from a compulsion of a varying degree (depending on mental fortitude) to recreate it and study its properties with the intention to "find a solution". The compulsion stage is easily cured by memory loss via any means, but amnestics are highly recommended for their efficiency and to prevent infection. Meanwhile, a fully infected individual is completely irrecoverable regardless of any measure and must be killed on sight. A protocol that carefully deals with this symbol is officially spread throughout all offices and should be strictly followed at all costs. As tedious as it may be, we are not pulling any gambles in case Agent Brandon is telling the truth. Prevention is better than the cure. Remember that he is immune to these very symbols due to his mother's genes, so any suggestion to weaponize these against him shall be considered as completely suicidal and thus completely invalid.

Ultimately, these symbols require their respective criteria to be effective, thus active action in preventing their appearance to the public and to important people greatly helped mitigate their appearance.
(Updates provided by Agent Krueger)

Equipment and Non-Powered Abilities:

+ Bluebird is highly intelligent and creative due to his high-standard education. His intelligence is focused into the creation and modification of technology.
+ Bluebird also has a degree of strategic knowledge, proven by his ability to prepare deadly set-ups and execute complex attacks with his underlings. Always be on guard should you sense even the slightest hint of danger.
+ Although he does not have the strength or martial arts skills required in direct combat, his life spent in defending the factory with his weapons have resulted to his proficiency in armed combat. He is also notable for being a combat pragmatist, which means that he will not hesitate to play foul to ensure that any opposition he meets remains dead.
+ Due to his abilities, it is a guarantee that he will have military-grade equipment and a large amount of skilled personnel. It is also yet to be known if he is capable of creating money.
+ Finally, he has some experience in psychological manipulation, focusing on deception, set-ups, and demoralization. If he sees a flaw, a loophole, or a weakness that he can exploit, he will be more than happy to find ways to abuse it.

Relations:

• Bluebird is close friends with The Scarlet Five, specifically the eponymous heads of the group. He only truly opens up to the other four primary members. He also has a degree of trust towards his more private division of underlings.
• Anyone else is met with a degree of distrust.
• He always holds the memories of his more peaceful days in his heart, using these as a primary driving force.

Spoiler: Official Updates

Update:
+ We have considered Agent Krueger's hypothesis about mental fortitude affecting the Unnamed Sigil's duration and we will regard this as fact. Despite this, we still would like to remind you that its abilities cannot be taken for granted.

The latest updates have been underlined for the reader's convenience.

Document 5H4D3

*All information about his whereabouts and related information is speculatory. We are still running an investigation on the real identity of this 'Joe Maddox' on whether he is the real deal or a phony. This information is top-secret, and we cannot let anyone know the atrocities he did.

View attachment 8214

Name/Title/Alias: "Agent Joe" (TSF and former Police Name) / "Agent Maddox" (speculated Double Agent's Name)

Biography: The Agent Joe that we knew was Jonathan Maddox, one of the two twin children of two parents whose entire bloodline is composed purely of superpowered beings, which meant that not only would the child be guaranteed to have more than one power, but also that these powers could be randomized. When his parents found out that he and his twin brother Joshua had the same interesting combination of powers, they presented him with multiple openings to develop a preference to his dream job. The result: he began to admire the police, wishing that he would be able to use his powers to become the perfect police officer. Meanwhile, his brother wanted to be a soldier who will foght for his country.

When he grew up, when he finished college on law enforcement and had fully developed one of his powers to the extent of mastery, he applied for the police department and proved himself to have plenty of potential, especially with his powers. And that is how he got accepted into the police. One day, his twin brother, Joshua, mysteriously disappeared during military combat, which motivated him further to work his way up to the higher office that he may take the case to himself one day and learn the truth.

Affiliation:

• The Scarlet Five (A-Rank - Jonathan)
• Bluebird (Direct Subordinate - Jonathan)
• The Opposition (A-Rank possible Double Agent - Joshua)
• The Police Department (Formerly - Jonathan)

+ Jonathan's 'Recruitment' Story - Prior to being converted into one of Bluebird's moles, Agent Joe had a very high position in the police force and is assigned with a job to hunt down one of The Scarlet Five of his choice. He decided to hunt down the member solely known as 'Bluebird', who he personally believes to be an extreme threat, which he presumed to be because of being capable of possibly outmatching The Opposition with what they specialize in: weapons and tactics. He began researching about him and his whereabouts, and every crime specifically related to him and Scarlet Five in general, including the mysterious appearance of his twin brother Joshua Maddox, which shows strong connections with the entire group (there is no evidence as of yet that proves or disproves Bluebird's direct conncection to the mystery).

Eventually, he found out about one of the places where he is said to have kept archived duplicates his documents through years of research. He decided to infiltrate it at night alone (because any more would be a liability when he could simply use his powers to swiftly bypass most threats). He managed to used the poor lighting of the area in his advantage, swiftly and silently transporting himself to where the documents are with the help of his powers.and here, he managed to take all the documents relevant to the identitt of Bluebird himself, fullt aware that these are all duplicates.

When he returned to his private office with all the retrieved documents, he began to open each document one-by-one, studying each for hours and figuring out the meaning of the strange symbol used as the background of each page and on each cover. What is the symbol's significance? Little did he know that he had spent hours staring at every instance of Bluebird's trap, the accursed sigil that caused the end of a building's worth of men. When he closed the last folder, he was no longer himself.

+ Suspected Double Agent Planting - After [CLASSIFIED], followed by his disappearance, a Joe Maddox presented himself to The Opposition with intent to apply as a double agent for The Scarlet Five. He passed all qualifications required for the job and finished the test near-flawlessly. An excerpt of the dialogue states that this might be his long-lost twin brother who shares the similar handle, Joshua Maddox, who also shared these exact same innate abilities, but the degree of mastery is still unknown. This is the only key to figure out who is who.

Spoiler: Addendum

Only one clue has been uncovered so far... A completely non-anomalous printed note from The Scarlet Five itself which says "Only one Joe remains." It is yet to know whether if this meant that Joshua Maddox was killed off or if this meant that Jonathan Maddox got wiped by someone.

Update 1: Or what if that is just a forgery?
Update 2: Now that you said it, we are now in Detective Hell. Thank you, asshole.

+ Opinion on the Opposition - According to records of his statements prior to the series of events at [CLASSIFIED], Agent Joe had once stated that the Opposition are gullible fools who would desperately trust anyone who held great promise in destroying The Scarlet Five. He also once stated that eventually, they will lose their trust to superpowered people.
+ Opinion on the Police Force - He was a serious man. He always told us, the police, to always have everything readied at all times because "we will never truly be ready when The Scarlet Five will unleash their true power". In the end, he himself was caught off-guard, forever scarring those who knew him with those very words. Agent Maddox also carries a very similar sentiment, though the context behind never known.
+ Opinion on The Scarlet Five - Agent Maddox firmly believes that The Scarlet Five are people with a distorted sense of justice, and that their hunger for power and disproportionate retribution would soon leave them vulnerable in the end.

Spoiler: Archived Police Records

Powers:
+ Scan - He has the ability to use a weakened form of his mother's psionic abilities to learn about a target's skills and any supernatural abilities. This makes him extremely reliable in learning about the capabilities of various targets, especially in espionage and undercover operations in order to come prepared whenever the day calls for a raid. This ability only provides a detailed summary about these capabilities. A typical scan takes about 3-10 seconds depending on the awareness and willingness of the target.

The target has to be within ten feet in his vicinity and in full view for the scan to be effective. It is also to be noted that anyone with abilities related to psionics will be able to sense that they are being scanned, adding a risk to this ability.

+ Shadow/Darkness Affinity - Agent Joe is famed in his office solely for the mastery of this ability, making him the most vital asset in night operations. These are the capabilities that he has unlocked so far:
= Night Vision - He can see perfectly through the dark, regardless of how thick this darkness is. This excludes shadows being manipulated by other umbrakinetics and artificial darkness, mainly due to willfully learning to exclude these in his vision primarily for convenience.
= Shadow Sight - He can use any darkness and shadow within 10 feet as an alternate pair of eyes for espionage. This ability cannot be used while he is hiding or traveling in the shadows via Shadow Shift.
= Umbrakinesis - He has the ability to manipulate darkness, whether it be in a solidified or non-solidified state. He can also solidify darkness and warp it into shapes and formes. The most versatile and vital sub-ability that he has, since it offers a wide array of offensive, defensive, and utility opportunities. His full mastery over it allows him to near-effortlessly counter umbrakinetic attacks and instantly attack from all directions in very dark areas. This ability, too cannot be used during Shadow Shift.
= Shadow Shift - Finally, Agent Joe is capable of using shadows as a means of travel, travelling to the shadow's visible extent. When in very dark places, this ability technically becomes teleportation for the entire area is filled with darkness. Whenever he uses this ability, all objects in his possession shift along with him. This ability is only effective if the shadow is large enough for him to fit in.

Do note that the potency and reliability of his darkness-related abilities ultimately rely on the presence of shadows and darkness around him. In situations where there is little to no darkness he is forced to primarily rely on his equipment at hand and his skills as a (former) police officer.

+ Mind Virus Host - We learned about how the sigil gave Agent Joe psychic immunity the hard way. There is no way to free him from Bluebird's control other than the gun and blade; and don't get us started with trying tap into his mind. We all know that it is stupid and downright suicidal, like attempting to weaponize the sigil. Don't be like them. We don't even know who the hell he actually is, so don't even say that the risk will be worth it.

Spoiler: Addendum

A recovered document has confirmed that Joshua Maddox attempted to take down Scarlet Five and prioritized Bluebird. This raises too many doubts and questions that we are now beginning to loose grasp on the concept of identity. Our intelligence is utterly fucked when they know about this. Who exactly is who? Even if that guy is Joshua, chances are that whoever will tap his mind would get the risk of seeing the goddamn symbol and slowly getting infected.

Update 1: Infectees do not feel pain.
Update 2: Possibility that Bluebird might have instructed him to fake the ability to feel pain is considered.
Update 3: The intelligence knew about it this evening and immediately decided to call it a day.
Update 4: Infectees have enhanced combat abilities.
Update 5: Update 4 is irrelevant. Joshua is a soldier.

Equipment and Non-Powered Abilities:
+ As a former policeman, Agent Joe is extremely skilled in many things including combat, stealth, and intelligence gathering. Ultimately, he specializes in police actions that focus on tracking down and neutralizing criminals. Regardless on which brother is it, the Joe that is walking around will definitely be stronger than the Agent Joe that used to be on our side.
+ He always carries a pistol loaded with either Black Talon rounds or R.I.P Bullets. He also carries other various equipment including but not limited to a flashlight, a stun baton, grenades, and a modified combat knife.
+ He can and will try to create a convincing cover-up story for his actions. Whether you trust him or not is up for you to decide. Due to the fact that it could be either of the two means that dealing with him will be an extremely delicate matter and any reckless actions will call for instant demotion. We don't want to either kill innocent Joshua or let that monster Jonathan destroy everything, which will utterly destroy our reputation either way. This is his most dangerous property.

Note: Remember that Joshua is also a soldier. Chances are that he was also involved in an undercover military operation. I hate investigating those unaverage twin Joes.
- Agent Hatter

Relations: Regardless of what you ask about his allegiance on both parties, he will only say something in the lines of "I am a double agent who acts as a double agent." No one knows his true intentions. The only minor clue towards his true alignment is that he is more likely to obey Bluebird's orders.

Spoiler: Addendum

Q: What if Joshua knew about Jonathan, killed him, and took his place and is playing along the whole time?
A: Never have we ever been frustrated. This thing is too open-ended, and we can't even postpone this thing when that shady guy is getting involved in the conflict between TSF and TO

Spoiler: Official Updates

We have added several details about Joe's Scan ability. This update will be underlined.

 

[Chaos Sphere]

Document M373R

*No official photo can match his current appearance, thus it shall be described in text for the reader's convenience.

Appearance: Leon is a fair-skinned and black-haired man with a seemingly average build. He is always seen wearing a scarlet business vest (with a white dress shirt and a black neck tie), which he often matches with a pair of slacks of the same color and brown leather shoes. He also sports a black hat not unlike that of a military official's and dons a pair of studded fingerless gloves. He may or may not wear shades.

Name/Title/Alias: Leon Brandt, "Boundary" (Former TO Agent Name? / Possible fabricated name), "Designator" (TSF Agent Name)

Assumed Biography: It is said that nothing historically significant happened during hid childhood. He claims that his abilities only emerged when he began to enter college, where he started to practice using it under the encouragement of his parents. It is also said that was Bluebird's close friend in his school, proving that the two have a connection with each other. It is also speculated that he is also partially responsible for the enrichment of his powers, specifically on his ability to enhance or degrade technology.

Affiliation:
- The Scarlet Five (A-Rank)
- Former Opposition Member (A-Rank? / possible fabrication)

+ Archived 'Recruitment Story' (Check Addendum) - He claimed that he was was originally scouted by the Opposition, who saw his ability as extremely useful due to the ability to amplify himself while simultaneously shutting down paranormal threats. That is, until he was sent to kill Bluebird, according to his personal accounts. According to reports, he successfully convinced him that The Opposition are traitors. We can only assume that part of this convincing involved revealing whatever made him become one of the TSF, if such a meeting ever happened in the first place.

He then left the Opposition (assuming that he was even a part of it in the first place), claiming to have killed or severely injured a good amount of personnel who tried to stop him, on the grounds that the Opposition is forcing him to kill a close friend, if they were even friends at any point. He then claimed to have immediately joined TSF thereafter, rising into A-Rank quickly; but the possibility that he may have been a member the entire time and had no affiliation with The Opposition is to be considered. It is said that he had stolen duplicates of several documents during his leave, but this cannot be confirmed as of yet as this may be a bluff. We also cannot confirm if any part of his backstory is either true or a fabrication to put The Opposition in a foul light, which he will most likely do in order to rack up some manpower.

+ Opinion on the Opposition - He 'views' them as 'people who only fight for justice when they are the ones being oppressed'. This is because of the 'previous fate' of his friend and 'the fact' that several Opposition members 'treated him harshly' because 'his power makes him a mole'. Do note that the credibility of all these statements shall be taken with a grain of salt, given that part of his reputation is due to his ability to taint names.

Spoiler: Threat Record

Powers:
+ Limit Manipulation - Leon is extremely dangerous solely due to this completely arcane ability. This power enables him to manipulate the limit of how someone or something is capable of performing a certain feat. As of now, here are the sub-abilities that he is capable of using:
- Technology Limit: He has the ability to increase or decrease the full extent of any article of technology that he has contact with to a certain degree (ex. increasing the power of explosives or increasing the fire rate of automatic guns). Note that these enhancements / degradations cannot surpass the physical capacity of an object (ex. He cannot increase the ammo capacity of a magazine or the length of a ruler) and that the amount of time required for these changes to take effect depends on the size and complexity of the object and the nature of the augmentation (ex. sharpening a blade takes half a second, while increasing a computer's data processing speed takes minutes). If he breaks contact with an affected object, the effect would immediately dissipate, rendering it into a completely normal object until he gets a hold of it again.
- Power Limit: By inflicting physical damage, he is capable of weakening an opponent's ability to use their powers, specifically by decreasing their ability to exert effort dedicated to unleashing these powers. The degree and the duration of its weakening properties is affected by the severity and the amount of injuries respectively. Although this weakening property can be temporarily applied to any weapon he wields through channeling, it would take time for him to focus on the weapon to properly channel this ability, the amount of time varying depending on the size and complexity of the weapon (for example, it will be near instant for simplistic weapons like knives and sticks, while it make take at most half an hour for the likes of the machine turret and mortar.
- Body Limit: He is capable of improving the physical capabilities of his own body to a certain degree, limited only by the maximum threshold of his physical form. The degree of these boosts is determined by the duration of time spent on focusing, and these effects linger as long as he is in the state of an adrenaline rush. Currently, specific amplifications of his physical capabilities are incompatible with each other (for example, increased movement speed and increased body durability. One has to decrease for the other to increase).

Do note that this ability in general requires concentration to be used.

Spoiler: Addendum

It is officially confirmed that he is actively trying to enhance his ability through rigorous self-training. We should not let him succeed with that at any cost. His ability is already a threat in its current state, and any inprovements in his powers would mean that TSF would have one step closer to having an extremely dangerous loyalist at their disposal..

+ Mind Virus Host - Leon is confirmed to have willingly subjected himself to the mind virus, rendering him incapable of feeling pain and capable of brainwashing anyone that tries to his mind, like every other host. It is not that we would even get his trust back in the first place, given how much he hates us all.

Equipment and Non-Powered Abilities:
+ Leon, in order to support his claim as a former Opposition Member, has developed mastery over armed combat. He also practices the use of foul play to get the upper hand. Remember, if he lands a hit by any means, or manages to get his hands on your favorite weapon, we are not responsible for that.
+ Whatever the hell he would carry in his operations, it should always be treated as a military-grade weapon as long as its effects linger. He is very capable of turning a BB pellet gun into an highly invasive armor-piercer, and the protective armor he always wore is proven capable of shrugging off body shots. Never underestimate him.
+ He is notable for setting up propaganda and scandals, allowing him to influence the masses more easily. This used to be in our favor, assuming that he even used to be an obscure member, but he won't hesitate to use it against us at this point. Even any part of this document relating to his past is to be strongly doubted.
+ He also claims to have a good amount of knowledge about the Opposition, which he claims that he could use to give TSF an upper hand. This makes him a top priority target to take down, aside from [CLASSIFIED], if such statements are true. Take this entry with a grain of salt.

Relations
+ Absolute loyalty to TSF. Given that he was Bluebird's allegedly best friend in college and that he willingly have himself turned into a host of the symbol, he cannot be swayed no matter how hard you try. We can't even be sure if he really was a part of us at any point of history.
+ Combined with his loyalty to the TSF is his apparent immense hatred towards The Opposition. He won't hesitate to show hostility to any Opposition member who tries to provoke him, just to back up his claims, assuming that they are not even real.
+ Rumors state that he is currently hoping to gather as many TSF followers as possible. If this is true, this makes him a serious threat. If he manages to turn the citizen's views into their favor through his twisted language, our cause will be put into risk.

[(Remember: Do not trust any word from him about the Opposition. He works for the Scarlet Five and all the claims might just be a part of a massive propaganda.)]

Spoiler: Addendum

Update: We have confirmed that there is no such person in TO's history named "Boundary". We should take down the Designator's ever-advancing wall of lies bit by bit by obtaining evidence that reinforces the truth and shatters any fabrication. This will not be an easy job.

Spoiler: Official Updates

We have added more elaborations pertaining his Power Limiter, to further detail its current state.

This update is underlined for the reader's convenience.

 

[Comet]

Name/ Title / Alias:
Cira Soren
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Height: 5'2
Looks: Black hair that falls just below the shoulder, tan skin, purple eyes

Biography:
Cira had a fairly normal life in a suburban town. Her parents were nice and loving to her and cared for her very well. They raised her to be nice and caring, and to not get into any trouble. Everything changed when one night, a fire started in their home, killing her parents. The firefighters did not arrive in time to save them.
She was transferred to an orphanage at the age of only six, and the conditions there were dismal. Cira found she could not rely on the orphanage to provide her with what she needed to be successful later on, so she started a life of crime, only returning to the orphanage when she needed to.
As time went on, she found she had a natural affinity with knives, but mostly throwing knives. At the age of twelve she discovered her power of making portals, and she became confident enough to do more daring and risky heists. By the age of sixteen, Cira was completely reliant on herself, and had made a decent living.

Affiliation: Scarlet Five (S Rank)
It was the day of the grand opening of the Natural History Museum. The main attraction was the supposedly priceless Emerald of the Forest. Cira and her group had already made an elaborate plan of how to break in, steal it, and get back out. Quite simple really, if not for the fact that they found an opposing group was also trying to steal the jewel for themselves. The race was on.
It was a cloudless night, and Cira quickly portalled them into the building, they were five minutes ahead of the other group. They broke through the glass, setting off the alarm, but there was a flaw in the plan. They hadn't planned for the extra set of security guards to be in the room that night. All her allies were shot, and Cira escaped outside just in time to meet some members of the Scarlet Five who looked impressed by her power. With her friends dead, she decided to join them.

Spoiler: SPOILER

Powers:

Cira first discovered her ability to make portals at the age of twelve. She soon mastered the skill. What she can do:
-Move herself, others, and objects that go in one portal and fall out another
Limits:
-She can only make a portal somewhere that she has seen before. The more familiar the place she makes the portal, like a street that she visits frequently, the easier and less energy consuming it is to make. She can also make a portal somewhere that she has seen in a picture. The less familiar she is with a place, the accuracy of the placement of the portal is decreased. It will also take more energy to make.
-She has not yet found the limit of how many portals she can make at a time, but the smaller the portals, the more she can make. An object going in one portal can only come out of its paired portal.
-The bigger the portal, the more energy it takes to make.
-The longer she has to hold the portal, the more energy it takes.
-She can keep up the portal while moving around and fighting if it is already made. But making the portal in the first place requires concentration, and time depending on how big it is.
-Using too much energy can result in unconsciousness, and a severe headache.
-If she loses all her energy and does not turn off her portals, they become unstable and going through them can result in injury or being teleported to the wrong place

Equipment & Non-powered abilities:

Cira is very skilled at knives, mostly throwing knives. Her aim is incredibly accurate, and she is also skilled in knife fighting. Cira is also rather good at observation, and spots things most people won't notice. Lock picking is another one of her specialties.

Relations:
Cira dislikes rich people, mostly. The kind who flaunt their wealth.
The Opposition - She does not hate them, and will not go out of her way to hurt them. She just thinks they should stop messing with things all the time.
The Scarlet Five - She trusts the others in The Five with her life and if incredibly loyal. She is careful though with others in the organization though.
Firefighters and Police - She blames them for not saving her parents on time and will hurt them.
