Lian is a fromidable fighter and a brilliant tactitian. Under the instruction of her mother, Lian has learned several martial arts that no longer are thought to exist as well as learning various forms of weapon use. It should be noted however that Lian's prefered melee weapon is a sai like her mother as well. Like her mother, Lian is a triple jointed acrobat which makes her moves quick and unexpected, her speed and agility are nearly superhuman levels.
Lian has also learned toxicology from her mother. Like her mother, Lian makes use of poisoned finger nails which can paralyze foes with a single scratch. Having travelled the world during her youth, Lian is capable of conversation in numerous languages and completely fluent in at least Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, French and Spanish.
Despite all this, Lian takes after her father in many more ways. Like her father, Lian is the current bearer of the Speedy mantle and is a crimson cloaked archer. Unlike her father, Lian prefers her 'Uncle's' compound bow instead of a basic long bow. A highly capable markswoman, Lian can bullseye a target from a hundred and fifty meteres away. Like both her father and Uncle Ollie, Lian makes use of trick arrows.
-
Compound Long Bow:A custom built, compound long bow with a 250 pounds-force (1,100 newtons) draw weight.
-
Crossguns:'Pistol-like Crossbows'
-
Throwing Knives:Harper keeps a handful of throwing knives on hand for situations where arrows aren't not ideal.
-
Quiver:Harper has a pair of quivers, each capable of holding a full load of twenty six arrows with the exception of cluster arrow varieties as noted below.
-
Drill Head Arrow:An armor piercing arrow with a spinning head enabling it to chew through strong materials. When combined with a two stage arrow, it's especially lethal giving it extra piercing power upon impact. It can also be combined with the explosive arrow or cluster arrow for other effects.
-
Grappling Line Arrow:An arrow which upon impact ejects a lightweight liquid steel line in a straight line back along the angle of trajectory. This line is capable of supporting 250lbs of weight, if combined with a cluster arrow, multiple lines can be intertwined to support additional weight.
-
Bolas Arrow:An arrow which upon impact breaks into three equal sections. Contained within the arrow is a twin of lightweight liquid steel line. Contained within the end of each section are small orbs which when exposed to the air rapidly expands, increasing in weight allowing the bola to function correctly.
-
Net Arrow:An arrow equipped with a proximity sensor that when triggered detonates the arrow and casts a net over the target. This net is created from liquid steel line and is weighted by the same chemical which creates the heads on the bolas. The net arrow can only be equipped with a cluster arrow.
-
Cluster Arrow:A notably larger arrow, the cluster arrow explodes into numerous arrows which can rain down on either a single target or numerous. Using a proximity sensor, the arrow can decide and determine the ideal range for detonation for maximum impact.
-
Explosive Arrow:An arrow equipped with a compressed explosive. The intensity can vary from a small contained explosion to rivaling a grenade. When combined with a cluster arrow, the explosion can be increased tenfold.
-
Adhesive Arrow:An arrow whose head contains a rapidly hardening adhesive which adheres to the target upon impact. This chemical will adhere a target in place and harden almost instantly. When combined with a cluster arrow, the compound can be used on multiple targets or to subdue one large target.
-
Foam Arrow:An arrow whose head contains a rapidly expanding foam which adheres to the target upon impact. This chemical will rapidly expand over a target limiting their mobility and straining their stamina. When combined with a cluster arrow, the compound can be used on multiple targets or to subdue one large target.
-
EMP Arrow:An arrow which contains an electro magnetic pulse. It can only be exclusively used in a cluster arrow due to the small effectiveness of a single arrow sized electro magnetic pulse.
-
Signal Arrow:An arrow which can produce either a jamming signal to block enemy communications and broadcasts or broadcast a signal to allow the user to remotely hack into any nearby networks or mainframes. It can be used in a cluster arrow in order to boost the signal. Also nicknamed the 'Wifi Arrow'.
-
Remote Controlled Arrow:An arrow containing a propulsion unit and can be directed remotely through a secondary device. This arrow has a limited range of effect although it can be combined with a two stage arrow for a final boost past the remote's effective range.
-
Two Stage Arrow:An arrow equipped with a small propulsion unit easily doubling its range. The arrow is equipped with an altitude sensor and as soon as it senses any dip in altitude, the propulsion unit activates, stablizing the arrow and carrying it forward towards its target. The two-stage feature can be combined with numerous other arrows allowing Harper to snip from very far distances.
-
Taser Arrow:An arrow which upon impact administers a strong electric charge that can knock a man off his feet. The shock will likely incapacitate most humans and can be combined with numerous others in a cluster arrow to take down larger opponents or numerous ones.
-
Tear Gas Arrow:An arrow which upon releases a cloud of tear gas that can temporarily blind a man as well as increase difficulty in breathing. The cloud will likely incapacitate small groups and can be combined with numerous others in a cluster arrow to take down larger opponents and groups.
-
Knock-Out Gas Arrow:An arrow which upon releases a cloud of knock-out gas that can temporarily render a man unconcious. The cloud will likely incapacitate most humans and can be combined with numerous others in a cluster arrow to take down larger opponents or groups.
-
Smoke Arrow:An arrow which upon impact releases a cloud of smoke that obscures the oopponent's vision. This can be combined with other gas based arrows or explosive arrows. As well, it can be used in a cluster arrow for a wider field of effect. The smoke can also be colored in order for tactical signal use.
-
Flash Bang Arrow:An arrow which upon impact releases a blind flash of light that obscures the opponents vision. This can be combined with explosive arrows for additional effects or even a taser arrow. Furthermore flash bang arrows can be quickly reconfigured to act as a flare. Like most arrows, it can be combined in a cluster arrow for a larger field of effect.
Despite all of Lian's training and skills, she's still human and can have her life ended by a single bullet. Lian's biggest limitation is truly how many arrows she can carry, a full quiver is twenty six arrows unless Lian carries cluster arrows which as noted above count towards two of her total arrow count.
