Valcili Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) 1. Where is your hero from? Valentine's official Place of birth is the Balboa Veterans hospital as her Father was actively stationed at the SD Boot camp conducting combat training for the new recruits at the time. She has bounced around the world a lot while traveling on duty with her father. She settled Freedom City after college. 2. How would your hero physically describe him/herself? Is this different from how others would? Valentine would describe herself as you average tomboy but with a severe sexy side. Most people are rumored to call her a bad "A" She’ra-esk or baby she-hulk when she prefers to be viewed closer to a baroness from GI-Joe. 3. Does your hero have distinguishing speech characteristics or recurring mannerisms? Valentine tends to regard herself as somewhat of a teacher probably picked up from how her father had always been with her...when in a conflict she tends to us a calming teachers voice as if talking to a child in need of a lesson. Of course that tends to change when things are not going as she had planned. 4. What is your hero's motivation? Valentine’s Father had always told her that those who are gifted with great power are obligated to use those gifts to protect those weaker. Most of her youth she never understood what her father was trying to tell her, but she finally realized that he had meant that she was in fact gifted with great power and he was telling her that she was obligated to defend the weak. So her motivation is to defend and protect the weak in honor of her father who raised her to be whom and what she is. 5. What are your hero's greatest strengths and weaknesses? Valentine’s greatest strength is her deceptive size and strength. Most people who have never faced her are unsuspecting of her actual weight and strength. So when she attacks you with a flying attack, one would expect a little 40 pound girl to hit you lite and easily caught when in fact you are about to be hit with a 200 pound bowling ball. Her greatest weakness right now is overconfidence, to date she is undisputed and will haphazardly wade in to battle with little concern of how doing so can affect others around her. It is something she is still learning, we can assume when she finally faces someone more powerful than her and puts her in her place, or when the people she endangers are injured when she is in fact supposed to be protecting them she will become more conscious and aware of those around her. 6. What does your hero love? What does your hero hate? Valentine loves a good fight, whenever she is in a combat situation vivid images of her father and his teachings become clearer. It’s as close to having him back in her life as she can get so she is always up for a fight. As well she is undefeated to date so she is always looking for the one who will finally defeat her. She hates criminals, those who prey on the weak and take advantage of their power over those weaker than them. 7. How would you describe your character's mental and emotional state? Valentine has a solid foundation of mental stability; focus minded if just a little bit unaware of the rippling affects her actions can have with not in check. Her strength and enjoyment of a good fight can have damaging effects on things and to those around her. Her emotional state is a little more volatile. So much power compressed into such a small container has dangerous effects, like a steam engine, the energy needs to be released and her pressure valve bleeds off at time through short bursts of emotional explosive rage. As well, Valentine had a very close niched relationship with her father and his loss scared her. So she will actively seek out fights as she tends to get vivid memories of her father’s teachings during battle and enjoys those memories. 8. What does your hero fear the most? At this current time there is not one individual that she fears the most, but her greatest fear is innocence lost caused by her actions. As well she fears becoming one of those who needs her help losing her ability to help those 9. What is your character's greatest ambition? Valentine's greatest ambition is to be recognized as a hero, like batman or captain America. To be cheered and thanked for her heroic deeds. As well as the satisfaction of knowing she saved lives. 10. How does your hero feel about the state of the world and his/her place in it? Valentine is not one who spends a lot of time focusing on the larger scale things as the state of the world that she leaves to the big brains that have an interest in it. She feels her place is simple one who is here to protect the people one her home soil. 11. Does your hero have any prejudices? How does he/she get along with others? Valentine has no prejudices, she does occasionally feel a slight bit of spite towards those who don’t put any effort towards self-improvement for any attempt to keep themselves out of harm’s way. With some hard work and dedication towards self-improvement one can learn to defend one ’s self and help make us hero types job a little easier. In the words of Mr. Incredible “No matter how many times you save the world, it always manages to get back in jeopardy again. Sometimes I just want it to stay saved! You know, for a little bit? I feel like the maid; I just cleaned up this mess! Can we keep it clean for... for ten minutes?†12. Where do your heroes loyalties lie? In what order? Loyalties: Honor, Justice, protection of the innocent. 13. Does your hero have a lover or partner? How do they feel about the hero now? There is not one individual at the moment that has landed the attention or affection of her. 14. Does your hero have a family? What is the relationship there like? Valentine was a n only child, both her parents are deceased. She does have some close friends she considers near enough to be family. Celeste, he longtime friend and sparring partner. 15. How would the people closest to your hero describe him or her? Those who are closest to her would describe her as: occasionally touchy as the oddest things can set her off for no apparent reason. A motivator, those that she is around she tends to push them to reach the most of their potential, “Give it your all of don’t bother wasting your time.†Dedicated, She always tries to lead by example, just by seeing her take initiative and putting her all into it, it makes you just feel bad to not do the same. 16. Is your hero a role model? Valentine tries her best to do what is best right and just. Protecting those around her, cleaning up teaching others to try harder for themselves as things in life are not just handed to you. And there will be a time when you get into trouble and a hero type will not be around to pull you out of the fire… 17. How spiritual is your hero? Does your hero follow a relgious tradition? Valentine had not ever taken the time to study or focus on religion, she has no stand on the subject, has no traditions and generally avoids the subject. 18. Is your hero part of a team, or would he/she like to be? Why? Valentine is still relatively new to the hero gig, she has no affiliations, never really has met any other hero types. If she was presented with an offer to team up or join a league she probably would as a way to make friends and acquaintances. Then she would not feel so alone in the world. 19. How does your hero feel about the place of metahumans and aliens on Earth? Valentine has not met any other metahumans or aliens, she is aware she is one and that she is not the only one. How she feels about their existence is balanced, those like her are great as they help to protect and keep things safe. On the other hand those like her that abuse their gifts are dangerous and should be expelled for the danger they pose to those around them. We need to prove to the humans we can make things better for them opposed to giving them something to fear and rebel against us. 20. If you could give one piece of advice to your hero, what would it be? Be more aware of your surroundings and the repercussions of your actions, you have great power and people will look to you to protect them with it, but when great power collides with great power, innocent and collateral damage occurs and that reflect negatively in the eyes of those you are trying to get to call you hero.

Do you have facial hair? My hair is generally worn in a double pigtail fashion, or rolled up in a bun atop my head to keep it out of the way. Do you consider yourself attractive? Do others? Is this like one of those trick questions you would ask a boyfriend? Is there an actual proper answer? If I say yes I consider myself attractive then am I vane and full of myself, if I say no then I have low image of myself and have self-esteem issues? Truth is, yes I do look good and my height aside others would consider me attractive as well. In fact I am quite the catch if you look past my occasional outburst and fear that I might kick your…. Ahem please move on to the next question. Do you have any scars, tattoos, piercings, or birthmarks? No noticeable or notable marks. I already stand out in a crowd. I don’t think I need to add anything to help it along. Do you resemble anyone famous? NoDo you have a dominant hand? I prefer my right for most menial tasks but in a fight ….no. What kind of clothing do you wear?

When in a fight that I am winning, I tend to turn on a motherly teachers voice and begin to explain as if to an unknowing student what they are doing wrong. If I don’t feel I am winning the fight then I shut up, gear down and focus till I am. History Where do you come from? The same place all of us come from….but if you a looking for a more specific answer, according to my father I was born in San Diego Balboa hospital. Have you made any major moves, or do you live in your hometown? My father was a lifer in the Marine Corps, thus I never settled in one place for too long. Do you feel loyal to your country of citizenship? Do you consider yourself patriotic? How do you feel about the government of your country? I maintain a loyalty to the country my father gave his life to protect. I do feel patriotic, I feel our government could use some improvements, but I tend to avoid politics. How do you feel about the place you come from? Like any place one would call home, it has its problems but then that’s why I am here *winks* Where is your home town? What was/is it like? What does one consider a home town? The current location you spend the majority of your time or where you were born? I currently reside in Freedom City (see previous question) Growing up, were most of the people you knew similar to you, or were you somehow a minority? How did that affect you? *Holds up hands as if saying “have a look at meâ€* I was definitely the minority, no one was like me. It initially affected me in a bad way but my father had picked up on my …uniqueness early on and helped me work it into an advantage, well as best you can being short. Is there something you've always been really good at or really bad at? How has that affected your life? *looks at her fists and smiles slyly* Yup. It has affected me positively, I am who I am and I do what I do thanks to the skills given to me by my father. Were there any traumatic experiences in your early years (death of a family member, abandonment, orphaned at an early age)? Sadly yes, my mother died during my birth and no I don’t hold the blame for that. My father died over seas during an attack on his patrol, he was a hero, he helped to save the lives of many of his patrol mates who would have died as well if not for his heroics. Briefly describe a defining moment in your childhood and how it influenced your life. I have no siblings, grew up with only my father….then he was taken from me. I am not sure if it is just me, but whenever I am in a fight, I see and hear my father teaching me as he always have, this make me want to fight so I can see him again. What stupid things did you do when you were younger? Heh, before I understood my strength I had put the couch through the wall with one of my outbursts. Ohhh, there was also the time I had taken the katana during free time exercises and threw it like a spear and it speared the wall mirror, it spider webbed, my father was furious with me. That type of things happens with me occasionally. Where did you go to school? How much school did you have, and did you enjoy it? I went to a bunch of different schools due to the constant change of duties my father did. How much school? I completed college with my degree in computer science. No I didn’t much enjoy school, I preferred to study my martial arts, but I finished my schooling as it was a request of my fathers. Do you have any mementos of your childhood? What are they, and why did you keep them? If you have none, why not? I have a black green undershirt and a pair of camo trousers that belonged to my father I kept these along with most of his other military possessions that were given to me upon his death. I keep them as them help me keep him in my memory. I had them tailored for me and I wear them while I train in my martial arts, it helps me focus and I can imagine his presence there while I train which help me focus and brings me comfort. When did you decide to become a hero? Why? Did anyone influence you one way or another in the decision? After an incident in college, it was my first real fight outside of training and competition. Turned out to be three on one , within seconds all three were out of commission. It was at that time I heard my father’s voice tell me again as he always had….he said “Val, always remember those with the power to defend the weaker are obligated to do so.†It was at that moment I truly understood what he was trying to tell me. I realized I was the gifted one with the power to defend the weak and so now I do. Is the reason you give people for becoming a hero different than your real reason? If so, why? Yes and no. I tell people part of the reason, I was gifted with the power to defend and protect and thus by obligation I do so. But as well I enjoy the esteem and simply put I like it when people call me a hero. Do you have any deep, dark secrets in the past that may come back to haunt you? Nope, I generally been a good little girl most of my life. Perhaps a jealous ex-boyfriend with a slightly crooked nose may try to hunt me down lol. Do you represent yourself as being different from who you really are? Why? No, I am who I am and I accept that. Others will accept that or they can go back and hide in there corner of low esteem. 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? I have no secrets that I need to worry about surfacing. Do you have any sort of criminal record? If so, is it public knowledge? As I had mentioned before, I have been generally a good little girl. The closest thing to a record I have is potential damage to public property, but those were dropped due to my heroic efforts in saving lives. Family What are your biological parents' names? Father: Lucas Mortimer Cooper, Mother: Sybil Marie Cooper Were you raised by them? If not, please explain and describe who raised you. I was raised by my Father, my mother passed during my birth. What was their standing in the community? What did/do they do for a living? My father was not a highly known person among his community as he traveled a lot and I with him. He was a Marine Corps Officer, who trained martial combat to Special Forces. My mother was a government contractor who focused on identity theft. Where are your parents now? Both my parents are deceased. Did your family stay in one area or move around a lot? They were military thus we moved a lot. How did you get along with their parents? How do you get along with them now (if applicable). I never knew my mother, I had a strong connection and bond with my father as he was the only family I had and since we traveled a lot he was my closest friend and my martial arts instructor. How do your parents view you now, or how would they? I believe they would be proud of who I have become and what I represent, I still am uncertain if the images of my father I see are real or figments of my imagination, but I listen to them and they are proud of me. Do you have any siblings? If so how many and what are their names? Describe your relationship with them. I was an only child as my mother passed during my birth. What was your birth order in the family? I was the first and only. Where are your siblings now (if applicable)? Do they have families of their own? What do they do? See above. Do you stay in touch with them or have you become estranged? See above. Do you love or hate one member of the family in particular? See above. Is any member of the family special to you in any way (perhaps, as a confidant, mentor, or arch-rival)? My father’s ghostly images that I still see guide me, help me train and sometimes council me. Are there any black (or white) sheep in the family (including you)? If so, please explain. No, I am the only member left of my family. Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? If so, please explain, including how it has affected your life. My Father was a war hero, I know nothing else of my ancestors. Do you have a partner and children currently? If so, please describe them. No, I am still young and in my prime and have yet to find that one who can keep up with me and pin me down. If you do not have a partner or children, do you want them someday? How firm are you in your opinion on this, and what might change your mind? Right now I maintain an active role as a hero; my enemies will surly attempt to use loved ones and partners against me. Thus I maintain no relationship. However, once my career as a heroine is done, I’ll look for one and settle down and perhaps one day have kids. If “the one†pops in during that time, he’ll just have to sit on the side lines until such time as I am ready for him or her. What type of person would be your ideal mate? My ideal mate would be one who can keep pace with me, handle my out bursts with grace. And know that I am in change and will accept their council if sound. Relationships Do you have any close friends? If so, please describe them, and how you came to be close to them. Celeste Joachim, close friend and sparring partner. Dark brown hair beautiful blue/green eyes, nice firm athletic physique, glyph style tattoos across her shoulders, upper arms and knuckles. Heh she loves to wear skin tight outfits that show off her curves which I don’t mind as she wears them well, gets her a lot of looks that’s for sure. We met as youths, hit it off immediately, and became inseparable sparring partners. We have lots of things in common and she never looked at me different treated me as an equal. We don’t currently live near each other but we video chat often. Do you have a best friend? If so, how did they become your best friend? How close are you to your best friend? See above. If you were to go missing, who would worry about you? If Celeste were to find out I was “Missing†she would come hunt me down…Ever seen the Movie “Taken†he would be the dad. Have you lost any loves? If so, how did it happen, and what did you do? I never lost a partner that I cared deeply for, I never loved any of them. As mentioned above, I lost both my parents. Do you have any bitter enemies? If so, please describe them and their history with you. No bitter enemies. If you have enemies, how do you think they might attempt to work against you in the future? If I have enemies, then I don’t know of them and they will have the element of surprise. Perhaps I may have a few from the criminals I have assisted in jailing. What is the worst thing someone has done to you? Laughed at me for being short, you can trust they have learned from that mistake. Where do your loyalties lie? In what order? Loyalties: Protection of the innocent, Honor, Justice, Celeste…in that order. Who or what do you trust the most? Why? Celeste Who or what do you despise? Why? Injustice, those who take advantage of the weak for personal gain. What qualities do you admire most in other people? Are these qualities you possess? Hard work, strong ethics, dedication, Temperance. Yes these are qualities I possess, well mostly. What qualities do you hate most in other people? Do you have any of those qualities? Laziness, weakness, and anything to do with taking advantage of others for personal gain. No I don’t possess any of those. Do you have a secret identity? If so, who knows it? Do you hide it from people who are close to you? Why? I tried to have a secret identity once but look at me. If I put on a costume and ran the streets calling myself something with a wig and mask on, would you not be able to pick me out of a crowd due to my height? I mean this isn’t the comic books where you can put on some eyeliner for a mask and people can’t figure out who you are. Do you work well on teams and in groups? Are you a leader or a follower? I am working on working well with a team. I can work with a team, me plus them equals more effective but I wouldn’t call us unstoppable. Since I am not generally a teamster, I would say I am a follower opposed to a leader. Are you on a super team? If so, how do you get along with your comrades? Do you trust them, or do you have secrets from them? I currently am not on a super team; I would love to be on one, as that would help solidify my role as a hero. If I have team mates who claim I am a hero, then I truly would be publicized as one, and I would love that. Since I am not on a team I can’t say I I would trust them, I would hope I could of course. Are you a member of any church, fraternal organization, club, committee, political party, or other group? How much time do you spend on that? I used to be on a martial arts competitive team, my last few years in high school and a greater part of my college days, but since I have taken up heroism as a full time career choice, I had to drop out but I still follow the league and keep in touch with some of my mates encouraging them to keep at it. Personality & Beliefs Who are your heroes? My Father was my greatest hero, but others I look up to are Captain America, he is an icon that all should strive to be like. Did you ever become disillusioned with former heroes or idols? If so, why and what were the circumstances? No I hold my greatest hero in the highest esteem and as he is the way I will always imagine him he’ll never let me down. And the captain, well he is the Captain and I doubt he will let me down as well. Do you like being a hero? If so, what is the most rewarding part? If not, what makes you keep doing it? I love being a hero, I strive to be a hero, the most rewarding part is the esteem, granted to be from the people. I strive to help and protect others and hope to one day be as popular and iconic as Captain America, national Icon, perhaps world renown with a positive immortal legacy. I think I might even choke u a bit if I overheard some stranger say they want to grow up to be just like me. Is there anything that would make you give up hero work, or even switch sides? Nope, I want to be famous, not infamous. What are your short term goals (what would you like to be doing within a year)? I would like to be doing full time hero work, and represent a team that helps protect and defend. What are your long term goals (what would you like to be doing twenty years from now)? Become a renown iconic hero that people look up to and strive to be like. What is your greatest fear? Why? What do you do when something triggers this fear? It will probably sound cocky, but I have yet to be defeated thus I have no real fears. If I was to say there is any one real fear it would be to be shunned but the people I am trying to help protect and defend. Is there anything you would give your life for? Truth, and the innocent. One life for many is a worthy sacrifice. 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? I don’t need or care about un-needed luxuries I have wealth, but it is more a means to an end, than a mark of success. The strive for wealth as a sign of success and power is a corruption, and makes good people bad and bad people worse. They sacrifice and use others for personal gain and that I cannot accept. Robin hood ad it right even though he was technically a vigilante. I agree those who are imprisoned for injustice should have a large portion of their wealth confiscated and re-distributed to those that they have harmed as well as a contribution to assist in the protection of the innocent. How do you generally treat others? I treat people how they deserve to be treated, their actions help me to determine. Are you a trusting person? Has your trust ever been abused? I personally have no trust issues, with those who have earned my trust. I don’t trust those that I don’t trust and no, my trust has not been abused, but if it eve is it would be very hard to ever earn it back. Are you introverted (shy and withdrawn) or extroverted (outgoing)? Do you have a lot of self-confidence? Extroverted, outgoing easy to get along with love the lime lite but I am not one to go after looking for attention. How do you act around attractive, available members of your preferred sex? I treat them as I would any other individual; I am not looking for anything as I may in advertently endanger them if they express interest in me they will be set straight before any other actions are taken. What are your most annoying habits? A need to correct those who show improper technique is their forms. Which is annoying in the fact that due to my physical differences, my forms that build on my strengths and adjust to compensate for my previous weaknesses. Are completely and utterly different that how others do their forms. Do you feel contempt for any general category of people? Who are they, and why? I hold no contempt towards anyone, individuals may receive it based on their actions, or lack of action for that matter. What is your favorite food? Do you prefer any particular type of food? Do you take the time to enjoy your food, or do you eat as fast as you can? I am a foodie, my primary diet I vegetarian, but I am a huge fan of Sashimi. I don’t avoid any kinds of food, I’ll try all kinds of things and when I eat I do it to enjoy it. Though I am not a fan of my meals being interrupted for world saving emergencies, I’ll stop and save the world a grumble about my meal getting cold. What is your favorite drink (alcoholic or otherwise)? I generally don’t drink alcohol, only on special occasions. My favorite drink is a fruity pomegranate smoothie. What is your favorite treat (dessert)? See above. Are there any specific foodstuffs that you find disgusting or refuse to eat? I normally do detest food but there are some things I have tried and will probably not try again. Top of the list is sea urchin. What is your favorite color? Are there any colors you dislike? Blue would be the most dominate color, but I like most of them, white, green, orange, blue, red purple, burgundy, black, silver, etc. I don’t dislike any colors, but some I don’t prefer and normally avoid, rust mustard, dirt brown, pea greens, fluorescents. What sort of music do you like? Is there any that you hate? Mostly depends on my mood, I like instrumental to help calm me, and I’ll do dubstep when I workout, and some sort of trance rhythmic tones when I practice forms. I general avoid rap talk of cursing and criminal activity as though it is cool is really just trash to my ears. If you have a favorite scent, what is it? Grass that has been freshly cut. Do you have a favorite animal? A Predatory cat, they are powerful, silent, beautiful, graceful, respected and intimidating. What is your most treasured possession? Why? As stated above, my father’s uniform that I practice in. Do you enjoy "roughing it", or do you prefer your creature comforts? I prefer my comforts but I am not against roughing it for a time if the situation calls for it. Is there a job or a task you would absolutely refuse to do? Public Janitorial duties. Do you consider yourself a spiritual person? If so, how do your beliefs affect your life?How important is it to you? I have not ever taken the time to study or focus on religion; so I have no stand on the subject, I maintain no traditions and generally avoid the subject. Was your faith influenced or molded by anyone special? Mt Father never discussed or opened up to religion he was sad and probably a bit spiteful at the loss of his wife. I am sure that is why I am the way I am with faith. If you belong to a religious organization, how often do you attend? Do you have a specific place of worship, or friends within the organization? How much do you agree with the beliefs of your organization? See Above Could you kill? Have you killed? Kill one save thousands…..yes I could, no I haven’t and I would avoid it if all possible. What circumstances led to you forming that conviction, or taking that action? My father lead me to believe this. Perhaps it was his military influenced teachings, or his self-imposed belief in accepting the loss of his wife, that her death was a willing sacrifice to allow me to live knowing I would in turn save thousands…who can really say. Are there circumstances under which you believe it is permissible to kill? What are they? A great evil who actions will inevitably cause the death of countless others by their actions is a good enough circumstance to forfeit their life to save the others they would have killed. How would you react to watching someone kill another person? Would your reaction be different if the killer was a friend or an enemy of yours? This is a circumstantial question, if the friends killing act is for the greater good (see above) then I would not question or react to the action. If the friend was killing with disregard to life as the way an enemy might then yes I would treat them the same as an enemy as I do not befriend murderers. And if you’re a murderer, you are not my friend. How would you react if something important was stolen from you? Depends on the importance and the chain of events that lead to the theft, and the potential impact that the loss of said item would cause. Meaningful to me, I would hunt them down and get it back, life threatening impact to me and/or others, it would become priority and I would hunt them down and get it back without prejudice. How would you react to public humiliation? I would take it with a grin f salt, learn from the experience and focus my efforts to correct the cause that lead to such an event. However I would carry on. How would you react if a good friend or relative were purposely or accidentally killed? Has it happened to you? Accidental death is not something I would have control over, thus I would grieve and carry on with them in my memory and my heart. Purposely killed, the hunting of the killer would become y first priority and I would see justice served and them spending their life in jail. However if a greater need arises, such as a world or lifesaving event would demand my attention it would take precedence until resolved at which time finding the kill again become priority. What do you consider to be the worst crime someone could commit and why? Murder, the taking of one’s life is not something we should endure. The killer will see justice. If your life were to end in 24 hours, what five things would you do in those remaining hours? 1. Kiss Celeste, and tell her how much I love her for being my friend and how proud she makes me. 2. Establish a trust, of all my wealth and split it half to Celeste and half to my super team (if I have one). 3. Say goodbye to my friends with a pomegranate smoothie. 4. Change into my training gear I got from my father. 5, Take a trip to the shoreline and watch the sun set over the horizon one last time. Career & Training Do you have any special training in your hero skills? If so, where and how did you get it? I am a master in military combat hand to hand training; I am a master mixed martial artist undisputed champion in MMA youth competition. I was trained personally by my father since I was a toddler with emphasis on my speed, weight and height as strengths. I train 5 days a week at a minimum and to this day the ghostly visage of my father is still at my side guiding me. Who taught you the most about your heroing abilities? What was your relationship with that person? My father is the one who first enlightened me to my gifts though knowingly to me, he had always treated me the same as any other with the exception that I was unique and required specialized training focusing on different strengths that others he trains. Do you have any particularly unusual skills? How did you acquire them? No particularly unique skill other than my fighting style. My height to weight ratio is significantly different that my physique leads on thus I tend to have an upper hand against first time opponents as the constantly underestimate me. Do you do something besides hero work for a living? Have you ever done anything else, or do you plan to? I am a financial investor, I make my money by supplying my money to an investment company who in turns utilizes my funds for other investments. Such as house flippers, and potentially profitable startups, Inventions ect. I supply the capitol and take on the hazard of potential financial failure, and in turn get high returns and sometime share ownership in the companies. What is your preferred combat style? Bare knuckled close combat, if you’re in close proximity of me when combat starts, whew nelly best be prepared for a hurt storm. Have you ever received any awards or honours? As previously stated I am an undisputed champion in the females MMA youth competitions. What skill areas would you like most to improve in? Is there anything you can't do that you wish desperately you could? I am in a continual state of improving my fighting skills. I may at this time be undefeated, but as my father had always told me, there is always someone out there better than you all you can do is keep trying to be better than them for one day you will meet them. How do you act around people who are more skilled than you in areas you'd like to improve? Are you jealous, or do you try and learn? If I found someone more skilled than me, then that individual has earned my respect for it takes hard work and dedication to achieve. I would try and learn from them as they obviously know more than I and I want to be as good as or better than them. Lifestyle & Hobbies What is a normal day for you? How do you feel when something interrupts this routine? I wake up with the sun, grab a glass of water and drink it down, splash some cold water on my face to get the sleep out. Then I head over to my workout room turn on the tunes and run through my forms, then I get some quick weights in followed by my cardio heavy bag. Once the work out is done, a shower, then breakfast with the news. Finally I would get dressed and ready to take on the day. I prefer my routine to stay as it is but if it gets interrupted it is no big deal as long as I can still brush my teeth heh. Do you have any hobbies, or interests outside hero work? What are they, and where did you pick them up? Recently have taken up parkour the Idea of being able to improve my skills of reaching my target who is at a range is appealing. I saw this one guy who had major skills, totally got away because I couldn’t keep up with him running and bouncing and flipping over things. If I could do that…. What do you do for fun? Now a days I practice my parkour and my forms. Earlier in life I competed but I had to quit as I was considered to have an unfair advantage. Do you have a costume? What does it look like? It’s hard to describe my outfit, but it has a lot of sex appeal. I’ll try, soft leather calf high flat heeled black boots, over some skin tight pants with brown and black vertical strips, a thick leather brown belt with an intricate gold steam themed buckle. Light brown leather half corset to help lift and support but still exposing my lovely mid-section. Under that is a white ruffled up front blouse. A sleeveless high collared brown oiled leather jacket with some steam accents for flare. Black leather fingerless gloves on each hand, and a wide black and tan leather bandana folded to hold my hair back out of my face but still allowing it to flow open freely in the winds. Over the bandana I wear a pair of small aviator goggles to accentuate the steam theme I am trying to achieve. How do you normally dress when not in costume? Not too much different, jeans and a shirt some time, but generally I wear something appealing to me accented by my love for the steam punk style. What do you wear to bed most nights? At home nothing, its more comfortable that way, but when I am somewhere else, my under garments, with a shirt and cotton night pants. Do you wear any special jewelry? What is it, and what does it look like? My father’s graduation ring he got after graduating the Marine Corps officers academy, nothing else. Do you have a special place where you keep your valuables? Most of my valuables are kept in the secret safe at my home. What's your preferred means of local travel? How about long distance? Depending on how far I am going and what urgency I need to get there. But generally It on foot if it is close proximity, and by wheeled vehicle if it is a goodly distance, and by air travel if it is really far. Miscellaneous Have you ever made a will, or tried to make arrangements for your death? What provisions did you make? I do in fact have a will, at this time all my possessions are to be handed over to my non related sister and best friend Celeste. And that I am to be cremated and dispersed among the stars if possible, else taken to the top of the highest river and released so I can flow out and become one with world. If your features were to be destroyed beyond recognition, is there any other way of identifying your body? I am a pretty unique individual, first my DNA is probably on file, and two the unique density of my makeup would allow me to be easily identified if this was to happen to me. What would you like to be remembered for after your death? My heroic deeds and sacrifices made to protect and defend the people of the world. It wouldn’t hurt If the erected a statue in my likeness in remembrance and in my honor. Do you believe you pose a threat to the public? Why or why not? I don’t believe I pose a threat to the public, I am here, I am a normal girl like any other, only better equipped to fight evil. Granted sometimes things may get a little banged up or even destroyed, but hey I saved your sorry butt right, be grateful for that. What do you perceive as your greatest strength? My greatest strength is my strength, endurance, and skills to whoop some backside. I also generally hold an advantage over my opponents who have never faced me for the often under estimate my due to my size. What do you perceive as your greatest weakness? My overconfidence I suppose, no one has beat me yet so I am pretty cocky on the battle field, I think that’s going to bite me in the butt someday. As a player, if you could, what advice would you give your character? Speak as if he/she were sitting right here in front of you. Use proper tone so they might heed your advice... Be more aware of your surroundings and the repercussions of your actions, you have great power and people will look to you to protect them with it, but when great power collides with great power, innocent and collateral damage occurs and that reflect negatively in the eyes of those you are trying to get to call you hero.
