Here's my character so far, and I'm thinking that instead of having her be in love with someone, she instead sees one person in the group as being really good friends with them. She doesn't have much interest in romance at the moment, so forcing that on her for the sake of making the mechanics work seems kind me. Also, as a note, when she shifts, her clothes do not. Mwhile her form isn't big enough to rip them completely, they're still pretty raggedy.
This means that, more often then not, people will be getting an eye full when she's not under the wookie effect.

Hero Name: Skinwalker
Real Name: Experiment Gamma Epsilon: #42156
Look
• Woman, Black, Dirty hands, Dirty clothing, No costume
Abilities
Gamma wasn't born but created in a lab that was a melding of magic and science. She was one of many that were being genetically engineered to be fused with the captured spirits, ones that the Native American tribes tend to revere as gods. For Gamma, she was born to embody an old wolf spirit and was the first success in her line, all the others going mad from the god's presence within their minds. Whenever she shifts into her more bestial form, she gains immense strength, and durability(including her moderately powerful healing factor), and her ability to react to danger with swift action makes her a terror in CQC. Even outside of her beast form, her instinctual fighting prowess and acute senses should not be underestimated.

Backstory
• Who changed you?
"Gamma doesn't know name. Guardians tell Gamma that they were bad. Guardians are good, thus Gamma believes they were bad. Probably. Gamma doesn't care much."
• How did you escape from them?
"Guardians raided facility. Found Gamma's cage. Gamma didn't attack them like others, so Gamma was let out. Others needed to be put down. Too dangerous. Gamma helped at first, but Guardians didn't like that."
• Who, outside the team, tries to take care of you now?
"No one. Gamma doesn't need anyone besides Okwaho. Okwaho keeps Gamma safe, even in the stone forest. Guardians try to keep Gamma with a strang epack, but Gamma always leaves."
• Why do you try to be a hero?
"Okwaho tells Gamma two things. Help people, find mate. Gamma doesn't care about finding mate, so Gamma helps people. Guardians tend to like when Gamma helps people. Get mad when Gamma breaks stone people dens though. Gamma does that a lot.
• Why do you care about the team?
"Gamma likes them. They are Gamma's pack, Gamma help when needed. Use 'cell phone' to talk when far away.
