Bio:
Ophelia was born to a rich family in Manhattan. Her father was a scientist and her mother was a professor for a prestigious university. She attended a private school until she reached high school, whereupon she experienced being bullied for being "that girl". The one with everything-- the boy, the clique, the school wrapped around her finger. Then the underdog came in and swept everybody off their feet: the typical heroine, protagonist female character who stole Ophelia's boyfriend, friends, and popularity. She didn't go down without a fight, but this only further ostracised her from her peers. Bitter and hurt, Ophelia went home and smashed various lab equipment and unintentionally trapped herself in a room full of toxic gasses and liquids. Her parents barely reached her in time to rush her to the hospital, where she was pumped full of liquids and IV fluids. However, this mixture of inhaled gases and intravenous fluids caused Ophelia's immune system to react weirdly, giving her the powers she has today.
Powers: ability to manipulate the molecules in the air, release toxic fumes/gases and inhale them without consequence.
Weaknesses: using her powers drains her, but it also takes years off her life. literally. if she overextends herself, she becomes physically weak
Appearance:

 

[Tater Tot]

Name
Casimiro Vicario Herrera.

Alias
Deathgrip, 'That Owl Guy'.

Hero or Villain
Vigilante. May eventually join Gecko but proves very skeptical of government-run organizations.

Age
26 years old.

Gender
Male.

Sexuality
Pansexual.

Personality
Beneath the facade of the silent, ruthless vindicator he's created for himself is a man with sincere intentions and the will to help others. He is often deeply troubled by his own sins, yet still willing to bear this burden for the sake of his ambitions; protecting the city's citizens from those who would do them harm. While possessing a softer, sentimental demeanor beneath the mask Cas can be fairly standoffish at the start. Once he becomes comfortable with someone though he tends to grow attached and fiercely protective. This is both a strength and a weakness as his affection for his friends keeps him going through even the most difficult of times, but also puts him at risk as he would do anything to ensure their safety. Even if he isn't always the most openly affectionate person he has other ways of showing people he cares. Casimiro isn't quite the enigmatic badass he’d like people to believe he is either. He has a tendency for getting stuck in places as he often neglects to remember his size combined with the added bulk of his wings. He isn't the most navigated flier just yet either.

Bio
Casimiro grew up in a strict Roman Catholic family in the Dominican Republic until his family moved to the United States at age 12, fairly content with his family's religious views and values for the majority of his childhood, sharing them himself. An A+ student throughout his school years, he never took much interest in sports despite being perfect for it (or so his friends claimed, he wasn't convinced), being far more fascinated with literature and history.

He was in a number of after-school clubs and could have easily been considered a 'nerd'. He surprised everyone he knew by signing up to join the US military on his 18th birthday rather than looking into further education. Casimiro passed through Army training with flying colors and was deployed by the time he was 19. He married a woman named Jada in-between deployment, and the couple had three children.

Honorably discharged several years later due to finishing his enlistment term, he returned home more than a little jaded and traumatized from his time overseas. In the present Cas spends most of his nights prowling the city and using the skills he learned in the Army at home to meddle in the villians' affairs as Deathgrip. He and his wife recently divorced, but he still has partial custody of their children.

Powers & Weaknesses
Fear Inducement: He can evoke extreme fear and terror in others through a simple touch. Deathgrip can create anything from a trance-like state that will force the victim to face down their greatest horrors, bring to light traumatizing memories, or merely just generate inconsolable fear. His power is so great he can cause his victims to go into cardiac arrest if he so wishes.

The catch here is the fear only lasts for as long as he is touching the person and maybe a minute or so after at the longest once they've been released. If the victim can manage to escape his grasp the trance is canceled out. His powers are also rendered useless if he is unconscious.

This ability is at its most powerful when skin touches skin, but can still work through clothing. He is capable of controlling how much fear he causes a person to feel and can even touch someone without frightening them at all, but still tends to avoid physical contact out of fear of unintentionally hurting someone.

Owl Mimicry: Casimiro does not have the ability to fully transform into an owl, but still shares several traits with the enigmatic birds. The most obvious trait would be the large, darkly feathered wings on his back which make flight possible, though he’s proven a clumsy flier at best.

Other skills associated with this power are enhanced senses/reflexes, night vision, retractable claws, stealth, and semi-hollowed bones. The latter might prove a problem, but even with his skeleton being lighter and easier to break than solid bone he’s still quite hardy and couldn't be described as delicate or fragile.

His owl-like senses lead to him being sensitive to bright lights and sudden flashes, his eyes also tend to reflect light at night which may give him away if he's trying to sneak up on someone. Considering the size of his wings, he also needs to be certain there is enough room for take-off (and that isn't even taking into consideration thrust or lift), so flying isn't always easy or possible.

As his wings are out in the open and not invincible they are easy targets as putting any sort of armor over them has proven debilitating in the past. Unsheathing his claws tends to be painful as they are otherwise non-visible and rip through both skin and fingernail when in use. Overloading his senses can confuse and distract him.

Appearance
- Height: 6'2".
- Weight: 200 lbs.
- Race: Mestizo.
- Ethnicity: Latino.
- Heritage: Dominican.

Deathgrip is covered from head to toe in attire meant to hide his identity, never removing his disguise in front of other people. He can speak both English and Spanish fluently, retaining a mild accent hinting at probable Latin American heritage. His entire getup is predominately black; a dark trench coat worn over a gray shirt and black pants. The material is fireproof and tough, meant to prevent tearing. The costume proves resistant to blades and most other sharp objects, but it's more than likely a bullet could still pass through it. Black combat boots and leather gloves are also worn. A hood shields his head from view. A gray and white mask shaped to resemble an owl's skull hides the majority of his visage, revealing only startling dark gray eyes and his face below the nose.

Large gray-black wings with rounded-edged feathers protrude from between his shoulder blades, peppered with flecks and bands of paler gray and white that might remind bird enthusiasts of a Sooty Owl. He has brown skin with cold undertones and his hair is jet black, cropped short to keep it out of the way. If allowed to grow out it seems to carry a defiant curl, physically incapable of being straightened. His features are neither overly soft nor exceedingly sharp, rather an equal mix of both that suits him well. His eyes are a dark shade of gray that at times nearly appear black. Tattoos of an owl’s wings decorate each shoulder blade and stretch out along the upper arm. As far as build goes he's fairly fit, exuding power and strength.​

  Technically a vigilante, but seeking help from Gecko. Of course, right now she's just so nervous and needing help from people who know what they're doing, she'd accept help from the OVA if they approached her.

  Gender:
  
  Female
  
  Sexuality:
  
  Asexual Lesbian

  Appearance:
  
  Independent vigilante outfit description: Dark blue turtleneck sweater, black leggings, black combat boots. She wears a blue beanie and hides her face with a (yes, blue) bandanna over her nose and mouth.
  (picture in the Basics tab has bad foreshortening on the foot sorry)
  General description: Long, strawberry-blonde hair and pale blue eyes, with somewhat pale skin. She’s about 5’ 8” and moderately toned. Her casual outfits are mostly pastel colours, purples, blues, pinks, oranges, those are her favorites. She likes sweaters and leggings, ¾ sleeve graphic tees, and can totally rock leg warmers. She's a big fan of tennis shoes. Her performance outfits are usually in either rosy pinks or icy blues and gradients, accented with sharp whites and blacks, and no glitter. Sometimes sheer half-skirts. She only wears makeup for performances, and it generally adheres to the same aesthetic of the outfit. Serana usually has a hand in designing her performance outfits.
  (Sponsored superhero outfit; in progress, aaaaaalmost done with it, but it's not applicable yet)
  
  
• 
  
  Personality:
  
  Serana is pretty introverted and doesn't have many friends, but she doesn't mind. The few friends she has (her brother) she is very close to. Even though she’s introverted, she can remain easily calm and collected in front of cameras and during interviews. If you need someone to represent you on news cameras, she's ya gal.
  Having become mildly famous, Serana feels like she is obligated to use it to help people. She’ll promote charities and fundraisers. At the same time, she does skate for personal enjoyment, and practices archery for the same reason.
  
  Bio:
  
  
  Serana was the child of two well-off people who lived in a suburban community, with an older brother who was a very good sibling, as far as older brothers go. She used to play video games with her brother often, and she took gymnastics classes. Her school’s PE class had a required week of archery, and she she discovered she like that too. A few years later, Serana wanted to try her hand at ice skating, and after going to college for a humble arts degree, took it up professionally and moved to the city, the same one in which her brother worked as a paramedic. She hasn’t reached the ‘olympic competitor’ tier yet, and she’s at the point where she would, of course, be thrilled if she could, but wouldn’t consider it devastating if by the end of her career she never managed to. She’s well-known in this city as a competitive figure skater.
  Within the last few months, however, she's discovered that she has a superpower--of sorts. Serana isn't sure how she suddenly gained wings, and her brother theorizes it's a shapeshifting-related superpower neither of them knew about. If it is, then Serana doesn't know how to reverse or use it. *In reality, it's a shapeshifting power that is limited to only those wings, for some indiscernible reason.
  
  
  
• 
  
  Mundane abilities:
  
  ~Serana is a professional competitive figure skater, and thus is very acrobatically skilled.
  ~But because she can't be on the ice at any given time, she also practices gymnastics and is surprisingly strong.
  ~A side-hobby of hers is sport archery, so she has formidable aim with projectile weapons.
  
  Powers:
  
  ~~She has a pair of feathered wings, dappled blue and white and approximately a ten foot wingspan.
  ~They're relatively small for what you'd think for a bird-person, but they're meant to be maneuverable and can be hidden (relatively) easily, when folded up the primaries reach to about her knees. (for reference on pattern, colour and shape look up a bluejay)
  ~Technically speaking, she can reverse the having wings by shapeshifting again, she just currently doesn’t know how. She’s stuck. Once/if she does figure out how to, she’ll discover that shapeshifting is not instantaneous (~3 mins) and is very painful.
  *SEE END OF BIO
  ~~Seraph can also heal wounds to a limited degree
  
  Weaknesses:
  
  ~~The whole ‘having wings’ thing is very new to her. Serana doesn't yet know how to use them to fly (and she's fairly afraid to try), and they make her very clumsy.
  ~About hiding them, note the parenthetical ‘relatively.’ It's the operating word there.
  ~Chairs are now not her friend.
  ~~She can’t completely heal severe wounds in one go, but if she gets there fast enough, she can stabilize someone near-death until emergency services arrive.
  ~Overexpenditure of this ability can render her unconscious

[Emibow]

Name: Rekka Beck
Alias: No name
Hero or Villain: Loner
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Unsure
Personality:

• Cunning
• Patient
• calm
• Observant
• stubborn
• Passionate

Bio: (i'll get to this tomorrow)
Powers:
-Emotion Manipulation: She can sense and manipulate the emotions(feelings, moods and their effects) of themselves, people, animals and other creatures within a 25 foot radius. Controlling the emotions by causing, increasing, or decreasing selective emotions.

This ability has a lantern effect, meaning it does not travel around objects, and it gets weaker the farther from Rekka you are. If an individual that is affected by a manipulation of emotions is able to resist its effects, they become immune for 48 hours. One can resist her manipulation if you are aware of her tampering, when the tampering wears off in 6 hours, or if the tampered emotions conflict with strong morals. Manipulating the emotions of a mass of people at the same time will cause mental fatigue, lightheadedness, nausea, and depending on the size of the mass, will cause her to faint.

[Zesha]

Name:

Rassia Tayce​

(ray-zah tay-see)​

Alias:

The Silent Key​

​

Hero or Villain:

Hero; Affiliated with Gecko​

​

Age:

25​

Gender:

Female​

​

Sexuality:

Pan​

​

Personality:

• Reserved. Normally she is highly self-restrained and able to at least seem like she has a level head. However, it isn’t easy for her to make friends or really any kind of relationship, due to her upbringing setting her apart from her usually ill-mannered classmates. It is more likely for her to be seen by herself off in a corner, or with her foster sister.
  
  
• Ingenious. She has been applauded by teachers and mentors for being clever and resourceful, sometimes coming up with rather unique and creative solutions to a problem. Despite that, she still feels she’s more average than anything, and will generally dismiss such compliments.
  
  
• Indifferent. Since she has largely made herself remote from all but her foster sister and parents, she doesn’t show much of an opinion towards other people. Some speculate she doesn’t care about anyone but herself, though this is not technically true. Rassia cares deeply for the few strong connections she has; she just is pretty apathetic towards everyone else.
  
  
• Stubborn. Unless you’re a master at changing peoples’ minds, it will likely prove difficult to change Rassia’s, at least if it’s a matter she believes she’s knowledgeable in. Later on, she may look it up again to double check, but at the moment, it’s unlikely she will budge from her perspective.
  
  
• Despondent. Even though she has lived a life much better than most in her situation could ever hope to, she still feels gloomy and discouraged. Her inability to reconnect with the few blood family members she was once close to leaves her feeling hopeless and like she is still, even now, not good enough.

Bio:

Rassia was placed in foster care around the age of five when her parents mysteriously disappeared. There was a search for a while, but after about a month, even the closest family members stopped looking. They didn’t seem to want to have to explain to her why her parents were gone, since they didn’t know themselves, and ultimately left her in foster care. The loneliness weighed heavy on her heart, and she began to wonder if it had been because she was stupid that her entire family had abandoned her.​

Thankfully, she was placed with a foster that had far more patience than anyone she had ever met. Her foster parents treated her well and helped her with her studies, leading her to become an A grade student throughout primary school and, eventually, through her apprenticeship as a locksmith, which ended up pairing well with her foster sister’s attorney job… between the two of them, it was generally easy to find enough information to push a case one way or another.​

Rassia’s foster parents had been part of GCHO, and both she and her foster sister had powers. They never revealed to them how they knew, just that they knew. Both children were highly intelligent and, at least at this point, are satisfied with their lives and with being part of GCHO’s organization.​

​

Powers:

Invisibility & a photogenic memory.​

​

Weaknesses:

Has no idea how to fight, pretty vulnerable physically, and can only stay invisible while conscious and usually only for two hours maximum before it starts making her lightheaded.​

Appearance:

• 4'11''
• Tan skin
• Large, dark gray eyes
• Stubby nose
• Pointy chin
• Long, curly brown hair

Short. But don’t call her that. Rassia stands in at 4’11’’ and tends to have a bit of a statuesque stance. If she weren’t tan, people might think she was made of marble with how still she can be. And you know how statues are really stubborn about talking? That’s about how stubborn Rassia can be, and most people know it just from looking at her.​

Her eyes are large, dark gray, and highly expressive. That cliché about the eyes being the windows to the soul? Probably true for her. You can see the exact second when you hurt her or make her mad: eyes get big, her stubby nose starts twitching, and that pointed chin of hers starts quivering. (She promises she won’t stab you with her chin.) Her long, curly brown hair comes past her chin and down about two inches beneath her shoulders, and is usually kept in a ponytail when outside of her apartment.​

Generally, she wears poorly-fitting but sensible clothes: tops a size too big and jeans just barely able to get above her hips. She tends to choose blacks and whites primarily, since they remind her of honey badgers, and honey badger don't give a bl**p. This changes when she’s breaking in to help with a case, but otherwise…​

[leif]

Name: Victoria Lane
Alias: Viper
Hero or Villain: Loner
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Pansexual
Personality: Manipulative,cunning, stubborn, nice if she is trying to get something from someone, "I don't care" attitude, introverted, independent, not easily trusting of people
Bio: She grew up fairly normal, her family life was okay. She was known as an odd kid though, she was a bit of a loner. Her parents divorced when she was 16 and it hurt her a lot emotionally. Before the divorce she still talked some, but she stopped completely after. She wouldn't participate in school and anyone she actually had talked to before, she wouldn't talk to anymore. If she had problems before, they were worse now. Her parents had always known she was strange, but now they were more concerned. Her mother forced her to see a therapist twice a week, but 2 weeks in she attacked him in a fit of rage. She accidentally killed him, causing her to discover she had powers. After finding out about her powers, she went into hiding. Any sanity she had left was lost.
Powers: She has a venomous bite that will weaken someone if she injects it into their blood stream. It won't fully kill them, but it will get them quite sick for a while if they don't get it out of their system fast enough. She also can cause pain with the snap of her finger. She has to be close enough to her victim to hurt them, but if she's close enough she can cause them a very sharp pain in their head. There is a catch that comes with that though, it hurts her to use it, but she doesn't get nearly as hurt as the victim. Along with those, she has retractable claws, although she can't use them for too long.
Weaknesses: (The weaknesses that have to do with her powers are listed with the powers) Quick tempered, she's weak emotionally, mostly relies on her powers so she's not too good if she can't use them
Appearance:
