Character History

-Sophie was born in Bastia France on the island of Corsica. Born to the at that point newly 'retired' masked hero Rossignol. And the at that point missing and presummed dead American hero "Mountain Man" She was raised for a time there at her families home in France before her mother moved back to the United States and started to undertake limited work as a Masked hero again. As Sophie grew she would spend time in both of her parents nations. She grew up in a happy if not strange home. She knew form a young age of her mothers "Work" And grew up with family friends in the hero community. It was never really a question to her if she was going to be a Hero. It was always a forgone conclusion and one of the only subjects that her and her mother ever argued over was the need for her to be educated in any traditional sense. Despite her view that a traditional education was largely useless for her she did well in school when she went, and excelled in her home schooling. Eventually skipping and then testing out of the American Educational system a few years before most high school graduates.

 

Despite the nature of her mothers work and the overall lifestyle that many heroes chose to live. It was none the less hard on Sophie when her mother along with a small group of heroes simple failed to return from Mission. It wasn't so much the knowledge they might be dead, but rather the total lack of any information on what they had been involved in. So at the age of fifteen the girl put on the ill fitting costume of her grandmother and went out with the intent to find information about what had happened. The experience was a painful and eye opening one. She got little done other then almost getting herself killed a few times, while finding no useful information.

 

It did teach her a great deal however. She learned that she needed time, the lessons and training she had gotten up until that point would be enough. And over the next two years she refined her ability and her equipment.

Adopting much of the same gear that both her Mother and Grandmother had used. And starting by focusing on the lower end crimes in her local area.

 

Physical Description

Sophie is short and a little on the light side. But none the less in good physical shape showing a lot of strength for her size. And focusing mostly on endurance and Stamina, giving her a bit of a swimmers physique.

Brown hair and green eyes as well as a soft face makes her pleasant enough to look at. And she can when the mood or need strikes her clean up rather well.

 

Powers and Tactics:

Sophie has no real power to speak of. Mostly relying on equipment she makes herself or re-purposes from off the shelf equipment.

She mostly uses a bow and a number of Specialized arrows. As well as a sword and Armored gloves. Using a great deal of stealth and cunning in her crime fighting.

 

Complications:

Secret: A secret identity comes with the package for most Masked Heroes.

 

Temper: Calling Sophie Irritable would be kind. Hot headed and reckless would be must more accurate. She's not hard to goad into doing something less then reasonable.

Rossignol.

 

Name: Charlotte Marie Leclerc. (Birth name not known)

(Deceased: Natural Causes)

Date of Birth: April 4th, 1925.

Date of Death. December 2nd. 2009.

Occupation: Costumed Hero. Singer.

 

Charlotte was born in 1925, And while her name was Charlotte, her original family birth name was largely lost to the knowledge of the family. Her "Father" the man that raised her that is, was French Composer Marshal Leclerc. A distant relative of General Leclerc. Charlotte came to be part of the Leclerc family in late 1939 Marshal and his wife where visiting Trier Germany for a concert. Having boarded the train to head across the boarder into Luxembourg and then on to France. The Leclercs where just getting settled into there Train car, when Charlotte was thrust into the enclosed space, her birth mother more or less handing her to Misses Leclerc, before the women ran. A set of German soldiers following close behind her and then another two stopping to ask the Leclercs where the woman had gone. And questioning them about the girl with them.

 

Marshal answered without hesitation that the girl was his daughter. The couple already aware of the round ups going on in Germany at the time.

 

And that was all the information that Charlotte or indeed Marshal Leclerc ever gave to Marie or Sophie on the matter.

Charlotte lived with the Leclercs in there house in Paris until the start of the war, after that she moved to the country side with her family. And as some point became involved in the resistance. Taking up with a number of the less well known "Costumed Resistance fighters" Before in 1941 crossing the boarder into Switzerland and slowly making her way to the United states. Once there, the now fifteen year old Charlotte took a more active roll in helping to fight the enemies of the free world. Acting as a side kick and then open member of a group of Costumed heroes formed around the surviving members of the 75th Infantry division. Who had been nearly wiped out German forces and then caught up in a large explosion that cause at least a few members of the group to develop strange abilities and powers. The "Hammer Smith" Incident also producing a number of German Super Villa's and at least one German Super hero.

 

 

It was at this point that she became acquainted with Adrian Cress, The eventual father of her daughter. And a German scientist who had fled the Nazi regime.

After the war Charlotte continued her crime fighting both in France and in the United States. And for a time in Israeli helping to hunt down war criminals from the war.

Even after she hung up her cowl and bow, she was involved in Civil rights movements and political movements.

 

There daughter Marie was raised in a mixed Jewish Catholic home, but there was never any real issues that across from it. It did however teach her daughter a great deal of tolerance.

She had a short but involved and close relationship with her granddaughter teaching her a great deal about many subjects.

Rossignol II.
Name: Marie Sophie Leclerc.

(Whereabouts unknown, Presumed dead)

Date of Birth: 4th of December. 1963.

Birthplace: Freedom City.

Occupation: Costumed Hero.

 

Marie was the second person to use the identified of Rossignol, but it was always clear that she was a separate person. First because of the presence of two Rossignol's at the same time. And also because of her very different crime fighting style, Preferring to use a sword over the bow and arrow her mother has used. She was also much less open to working with others. Only working with a small group instead of the wider community like her mother had. She spent a great deal of her time fighting organized crime in Freedome city, and only tended to leave to help other heroes when they needed it.

She eventually settled down to something approaching married life with the Hero "Mountain Man" Thornton. Despite there age difference the two got along well.

She chose to move to France before the birth of her daughter, hoping that the distance from her normal enemies would afford her a great amount of security and safety. But despite this clear want to keep her daughter safe, she never hid the history of her family from Sophie and indeed indulged the girls requests for training and lessons from a early age.

 

As Sophie got older Marie returned to a semi-involved level of crime fighting, helping more then actively fighting crime.

And on one of these outings to help the group of heroes she was with simply, disappeared, totally dropping off the radar with no information as to what had happened.

On the outbreak of war for the united states Thornton was shipped out to North Africa and had a short but eventual combat tore until his unite. A small state militia unit was caught up in a ambush and then a explosion from a still unknown Nazi weapon or artifact.
The explosion a event that would later be called "The hammer smith" event. After some cryptic documents found by military intelligence left most of the men caught in the blast dead. but the closest victims seamed largely unharmed and slowly began to develop extraordinary abilities. Seven members of the American unite and five from the German unit survived and developed abilities. And spent most of the rest of the war fighting a ongoing battle between each other. Eventually only four from the incident surviving the war. Two Americans and two Germans. One of the Germans going on to become a respected member of the Hero community after "reforming"

 

In the coarse of the war Thronton met and started a friend ship with Charlotte Leclerc. And then eventually her daughter Marie Leclerc becoming briefly romantically involved with Marie.

 

Eventually Thornton retired from hero work in his late eighties, though is age seams to have been slowed some what by his powers. He died in 2002 from a apparent stroke. Being burred in Booneville Kentucky outside of a small museum to the 72 Kentucky Militia division and the seven members of the unite that would go on to be some of the first public super powers heroes. Thornton never achieved mass fame but was well respected in his time and  community.

A: When my grandmother died, my mother took me to Freedom city, to the small three story brownstone our family owns in Lantern Hills. She took me up into the top floor.
Behind a panel wall and a metal cage. And inside was my grandmothers costume... I had seen my mothers before. But it was modern. Kelval and ballistic fiber, Her sword and equipment.

A: ~Leans in close so she can whisper~ I where contacts...

Q:If you do have these secrets, what do you fear would happen if the truth became known? How far would you go to protect those secrets?

Personal Beliefs.

Q:Who are your heroes?
A:People seam to think that heroes that don't have powers have it harder. We really don't because people don't except as much from us. Paragons of virtue with amazing powers have it worse.

A:What? No. That's just silly.

Q:Do you like being a hero? If so, what is the most rewarding part? If not, what makes you keep doing it?

A:I want to rebuilt the network of masked heroes that use to keep organized crime in check in Freedom city.

Q:What is your greatest fear? Why? What do you do when something triggers this fear?
A:Causing some one to get hurt when they should not. It happens, you can't save everyone but it's hard to think about.

Q:Is there anything you would give you life for? 
A:I would really rather not, but sure lots of things actually.

Q:How do you feel about money and material wealth? Do you desire it or disdain it? Are you miserly with what you have, or do you like to share? Is it a mark of success, or a means to an end?
A:It's as important as any other things. People who say the root of all evil is money have never been poor. But letting it go to far is the real issue.

Q:How do you generally treat others?
A:I'm a bit cold but in general I prefer to be polite.

Q:Are you a trusting person? Has your trust ever been abused?

A:Generally like a idiot.

Q:What are your most annoying habits?
A:Missing social cues. Or jokes in general.
