Name: Calypso


Age: 13


Height: 150cm, 4'11"


Gender: Female


Sexuality: Heterosexual


Appearance: Midnight blue eyes that sparkle when she's happy but looks sorrowful otherwise, silvery grey/pale blue hair in tousled shoulder-length waves, often looks spaced out, slim, lithe and petite


Enhancement: Near-complete invisibility (unseen, unheard, no scent), manipulates darkness (e.g. shadows) to hide physically/mentally (e.g. thoughts) and blind enemies


Power weakens as she weakens, e.g. tiredness from lack of sleep, exhaustion, etc.


Rank: S- (?)


Background: Born to a teen mum, Calypso used to live in a poor, crime-ridden neighbourhood, hiding in shame from the upper class society her young mother had grown up in.  At the age of 4, she watched her mother die in the crossfire during a store robbery, while she herself remained hidden between shelves. After the government had placed her in state care, she was taken to the testing facility, where she developed an aversion to humans, since the only people she met were scientists or guards who were cold and unemotional.


Many scientists are fascinated by the ability to hide, and have long contemplated the idea of becoming completely untraceable, even beyond simply being unseen. Moreover, some have explored the potential to 'hide' others apart from oneself. As such, Calypso underwent rigorous experiments in order to achieve abilities befitting of her name, thus truly becoming 'she who hides'.


Misc: Calypso prefers to hide/be invisible so as to avoid human interaction, but appears among those she trusts, or whenever she deems necessary. She spends most of her time alone, often resorting to her imagination for entertainment. Thought typically quiet unless required to speak, she does at times wonder aloud, or smiles and laughs to herself. She grew to hate the dull, dirty white of the testing facility, now preferring to wear creamy white summer dresses.

Your char will still be vulnerable to government searching abilities (such as the 53- something something guy) and enhanced abilities that can detect a person (such as mind reading, Arkus' telekinetic 10m radius would allow him to "feel" you, etc). Otherwise it looks good.

I was actually contemplating making her manipulation of darkness both a physical and mental ability, so that she can hide herself not only physically but also hide her mind/thoughts. I assume I'll still be susceptible to 5324, but if the proposition above were allowed, I could perhaps prevent my mind and presence from being read or felt by Arkus. What do you think? Can I be allowed to include this?
 
Hmm, well you could do that, but it won't help you against Arkus. He can "feel" physical matter within a 10m radius of his body, not really your mind. And I'm thinking masking physical touch as part of your Cloak is a bit much. I get that you wanna be one of the powerful dudes too, but we still gotta do this whole "room to grow" thing, right?


So yes to cloaking to all the senses, except touch (so people can still walk into you and be like 'wtf?', otherwise you could kill anyone and they wouldn't know which is too op), and and cloaking from mind reading/manipulation powers (all of this only applies when your power is turned on). 


However, I would encourage you to add like a time limit or an energy drain for when you use your power for balancing, some kind of weakness. You don't have to, but it'd be nice. For example, Arkus's range is limited to 10m, he's still physically just a child so any power-jamming abilities would leave him screwed, he would lose all control of his body if he lost his headphones. Stuff like that. : )


But otherwise you're approved. 
 
Thanks for the advice, that all sounds good. I'll edit that into her profile and keep that in mind for my starter.
