Personality: Cheerful and warm. Ready to take responsibility if the need arises. More of a nerd than a chic, although she keeps her living area clean. Spends free time on her PC and kickboxing at the university gym twice a week. She drinks strawberry smoothies, prefers the color blue and can cook if she absolutely, positively has to.

History: Amie was born into a completely average family. Her parents are still alive and married. She was a n avid reader as a child and her desire for knowledge carried over to public school. She's majoring in Computer Science in college. Single, never had a boyfriend. Romance has never been a concern, and she's satisfied with Matthias Angel as her best friend. She "met" him when she transferred high schools in 10th grade. He was he only person sitting alone, looking irritated and bored. Amie, an only child, knew how being alone felt and decided that she was going to keep him company whether he liked it or not. He didn't, initially. It took a month for him to even take notice of her existence. By the end of high school they were having actual conversations at times. 

They ended up attending the same college and, since Amie lived too far from the college of her choice, she decided to rent an apartment and live on her own (although she visits her parents every other weekend). She suspected that Matt agreed to room with her because he wanted to stay in contact with her, but it was equally likely that he had nowhere better to go. Amie doesn't have any real friendships with other girls, or boys for that matter. She replaced reading as a child with coding and PC games and values comfort over beauty. She has above average intelligence and her GPA is excellent (although it has taken a few hits from mathematics and history). Now that she's in college, she lives in a shared flat with Matt and Joey, her long-hair dachshund.

Shift: Reaction Time (essentially bullet time)
 Strengths: Time slows down to a crawl, allowing her to avoid or respond to an attack, including bullets and other projectiles. Rather than actually change time, she is instead moving insanely fast. 
 Weaknesses: The power lasts for only a few seconds and cannot be performed in rapid succession. It can result in a headache, as it requires intense mental focus to process events and react to them instantly, and the more it is used without rest, the more severe the headache. It also only works when the threat is visible. 
Other Information: Best friends with Matthias Angel
