She can turn her body into any plant or vegetation imaginable, shaping it into weapons, extra-limbs, and so forth. She can also create any consumable plant or vegetable by willing it. Her biology is also drastically different from humans, it's more of plant biology. In place of blood, she has various plant liquids (Water, Green Chlorophyll, Etc) constantly being transported. She doesn't have a circulatory system like humans do. Phoebe has a vascular system, that that is similar to the blood vessels in animals. However rather then having a heart to move her fluids about; other forces are utilized (Root pressure, etc). Therefore she has no heartbeats, breaths, etc. Her biology/body is drastically different from humans, but still retains a few key features that allows her to function/appear as a human. Phoebe "breathes" through her skin, and she can create oxygen in the process. It's simple, she breathes by 'inhaling' carbon dioxide and 'exhaling' oxygen, creating a constant amount of oxygen for everyone to use! Now, if you're wondering about heat, stop right there. Phoebe isn't frigid. If you're wondering why, with her differing biology (and metabolism that doesn't constantly produce heat) is that some plants produce Alternative Oxidase. Which, in short, produce heat in response to cold areas to stay alive. So, essentially, how warm she is depends on how cold it is. If she's in snow, she can actually get hot enough to melt slow - otherwise, her temperature remains low. Sorry, I was getting a little too science-y. Because of her alternate biology, she has a form of regeneration. By forcing her body to grow new plant matter to repair damage. Depending on what's damaged, this can be near instantaneous. Usually it's automatic and body-wide, but she can selectively regenerate any part of her body. She can also draw/absorb other plant matter to repair the damaged tissue. Replacing a lost limb is elementary. Phoebe is resistant to diseases and toxins. Some plants deal with infection/poison by simply killing off the infected tissue and expelling it before it spreads. She'll lose a bit of matter, but Phoebe can quickly regenerate the lost tissue. She can control and secrete pheromones that are generated from plants, which can allow her to draw a swarm of insects to herself, or repel them. Useless ability, but is cool to have.[/indent] [i]Chlorokinesis.[/i] [indent]Phoebe also has a connection to other plants. She can sense them in the immediate area, and instinctively gain information about them (which part of their life cycle they're in, what kind of plant they are, etc, etc). Phoebe can also sense through them if she focuses. You see, to an extent, plants can feel, smell, and taste (There's also a theory that they can hear, but nah). Well, it's mostly limited to other plants. Plants can feel, and Phoebe knows what they feel. Such as a gust of wind, or someone touching them, she has long learned the difference. Now, Phoebe can do the usual manipulation of plants other than herself. She can freely manipulate the growth and size, and exercises precise control over them. Making them grow to exponential levels in mere seconds. She can control wood, vines, plants, moss and fungus, and parts of the plants, such as leaves, seeds, fruits and flowers. She can use the plants around her to both attack and defend herself from harm. Her ability requires her feet be on the ground, otherwise her control is severely weakened. She generally exerts physical force by stomping her feet or digging her fingers into the soil, to increase her power to amazing levels. Phoebe can basically control all plants, and is all powerful in woods. Not too much to describe here, since you should already know what she can do.[/indent] [i]Chlorokinetic-Resurrection.[/i] [indent]Her last ability, to make her even more overpowered, is Plant-Based Resurrection. In short, if she dies, her body withers away and turns into dust, then a little seed comes out. If this seed is currently in contact with soil, it'll dig itself in. Then the seed will grow another body over the course of a few days. She'll return to an earlier age, the exact point where she got her powers back in her teens. She's functionally immortal. Of course, if she isn't by dirt, then someone will have to plant it or else she'll be in her dormant seed state either either the seed decays, or it's destroyed. [/indent] [color=Orange][b]Limits/Weaknesses:[/b][/color] [indent]Phoebe's body is very frail and easy to damage, while she can turn into wood, that isn't the most durable material. She can get destroyed very easily, but fortunately, she can regenerate. Phoebe is weak against plant destroying elements such as fire, lightning, ice, and poisons. Fire and heat are her primary weakness, however. If she's on fire, her regeneration will be severely slowed until the flame is extinguished. Getting burned to ash can also kill Phoebe for good. Phoebe's strength depends on how many plants are around, if she's in a desolate area, she's not that hard to beat. Mostly because she's not that powerful by herself. If she's deprived of sunlight for too long, then she'll become sluggish and slow - Eventually she'll shut down and remain dormant until she gets sunlight again. She needs to be without sunlight for a day or so for this to occur. However, if she uses up all of her energy by using her powers, and is without sunlight for a long period of time, she'll go dormant anyway. If she's deprived of water, then her body will dry up and begin to wither and will gradually lose access to her plant powers, until she dies and reverts back to a seed. Phoebe can be killed for good if someone were to destroy her seed, or if she dies by burning to death. Her resurrection can be interrupted if someone damages her in the process of growing a new body. If her body is destroyed during this process, she'll revert back to a seed. [/indent] [color=Orange][b]Appearance:[/b] [/color] [indent]The first impression people get from Phoebe by glancing at her is that she's quite nerdy in terms of her looks. Not to a ridiculous degree, however. It's mostly just her glasses, and her braces. It's not helped by her very svelte frame. She is one inch underneath the female average at five-feet-four, though, she wishes that she was taller. Her arms and legs are almost devoid of thickness, and her stomach is completely tight. In fact, if you look at her naked, then you'd see her bones. This is mostly because her power has changed her biology to the point where it's impossible for her to get fat (She can survive off doing nothing but drinking water). On the flipside, she'll never develop any muscles. So, no matter what she eats, she'll stay this way no matter what (For other reasons, too). Phoebe is African American, with bits of Ugandan, Ethiopian, and Kenyan, in her blood, which contributes to her appearance. Her facial features, skull-shape, and hair-texture, match Africans. Her skin is a very dark brown-ish black color. Has plenty of moles, and marks - more specifically, a mole on her cheek that seems to pop up whenever Phoebe smiles. Phoebe's facial features are quite round, and child-like in a way. Her cheeks are so round/large that they tend to poke out whenever she smiles. The other pronounced facial feature Phoebe has is her nose. Her nose is a quite large button nose with a pronounced tip, and large nostrils. Her lips are quite thick, much like people with her ethnic background. Her ears are small, and diamond-shaped, and her eyes are medium-sized, almond-shaped, and have amber irises. Phoebe's hair is straight, somewhat fizzy, and very clean. She keeps it brushed behind her head into a bun.[/indent] [color=Orange][b]Personality:[/b][/color] [indent]A certainly cheerful, and level-headed youth. She displays a great deal of maturity and understandable unlike her peers. She's very capable of handling mature subjects, and discussing them. All while being playful enough to have a common ground with her peers. Phoebe is quite kind and charming. Intelligent, too.[/indent] [color=Orange][b]Background:[/b][/color] [indent]Phoebe was born in sunny Key West to a pair of loving parents. She spent most of her young life in a Floridan suburb, and lived a happy life growing up with friends, and plenty of learning experiences. When she was young, her father was sent away to fight in the war in Iraq, and when he came back years later, he changed. A decent fellow when he left, now he was riddled with PTSD, and alcohol. He worried Phoebe's family up until he up and disappeared not too long later. Phoebe was devastated by the transformation he went through, was greatly saddened to see that her family had lost a member. The grief made Phoebe manifest her power in her bed room. While she was curled up in her bedroom, she started excreting vines all over the room and turned it into a jungle. Her mother ran in, terrified, and Phoebe figured out what she was doing. She managed to clean it up with her mother (Earning some funny looks from her neighbors), but they had a serious talk about keeping it a secret, and never using the ability or else people would get hurt. Phoebe agreed to it - but practiced it in secret. This went on for a year, as Phoebe learned about how her power works. However, it wasn't long until they caught wind of a special Academy for mutants. Her mother figured that she could do better in a better learning environment, and they both agreed to send Phoebe there.[/indent] [color=Orange][b]Themesong:[/b][/color] [indent][youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JDRoGKIMD4[/youtube][/indent]
