Elizabeth Penree

Name: Elizabeth Penree
Title: Lady of Storm and Blade (For her gifts in Lightning magic and her mastery over bladed weapons.)

Tier/Influence: 4 (National)

Description:

Height: 5'10"
Weight: 145 lbs.
Age: 21
Race/Species: Half-Dragon (Lightning Variant). <- Pretty self explanatory
Appearance:

Elizabeth has large, black, draconic wings that sprout from between her shoulder pads. Layers of scales acorn her upper arms, spine, and upper legs. She has a long, 4.5 foot, tail that grows from her rump and is typically wrapped around her left leg. Her piercing blue eyes hold slitted pupils while her canines are slightly elongated. Small, tiny, bolts of blue lightning flit between her scales, and the grow in intensity with her emotions.
Elizabeth typically wears a long, brown jacket, more patches and pockets than true jacket. Underneath lies a v-neck white t-shirt, covered in grease stains. Her legs are covered with deep blue jeans that are held up with a black belt at her hips. Black combat boots, worn underneath her pants, can be seen covering her feet. A large, black duffel bag is typically thrown around her shoulder.
She wields a longsword, shortsword, and several daggers, all of which have been tuned into her specific talents.
Personality:
Elizabeth doesn't like people. She finds them annoying, gross, and rude, though she herself is quite rude. In contrast, she likes machines. Technology of any kind, really. She doesn't enjoy much else as she finds it to be a waste of her time. She doesn't solve problems by talking about it. SHe either slices it in half, stabs it, or blows it up. However, she becomes amiable when some cool, interesting tech or machinery is presented. If said tech or machinery is given to her, then she will actually like that person, whoever it may be. SHe holds no allegiance to anyone, and is allied to herself.

Abilities, Talents, Traits, Powers:

(4) - Lightning Blood: This skill covers all of Elizabeth's lightning abilities. Having gained them from her draconic father, Elizabeth has a naturally strong control over the element. As such, she has spent no time honing the skill down. She cannot fine tune it at all. All she can do is release huge bursts or streams of lightning. However, if she has a matrix, than it can become a powerful, deadly, and precise tool with which she can decimate foes. Elizabeth cannot control storms, as her title might imply, she can only control lightning. SHe feels no pain and, in fact, only gets stronger if she is hit with an electrical attack of any kind. While she can't destroy a town, she can obliterate a building with one strike.

(3) Sword Skills - Due to her draconic heritage as well as her cyborg enhancements, Elizabeth has greater than average reflexes and speed. Her strength is greater than it appears as well. Having become versed in all manners of bladed weaponry, Elizabeth can become a deadly storm of blades. <- Title reference

(2) Flight - She has wings. Not much else to explain...moving on ->

(4) Metal based magic - As a nice compliment to her already powerful lightning Blood, Elizabeth decided to explore down the path of metal based magic. (Think Magneto with his little metal balls). While she cannot control much more than a pound at any given time, she is able to use said pound in devastating, pinpoint attacks. This, combined with her Lightning Blood, makes her absolutely terrifying.

Items: (The items, equipment or weapons your character has. What is in their inventory? What do they bring with them? What do they own? Just like an ability or power, explain what it is, what it does and what it looks like. If it is to big to carry, where do they put it? Consider points like these.)

(2) Longsword - While it looks like a normal longsword, Elizabeth's contains a matrix within it that allows her to force her lightning through it. THis typically heats the air that is immediately around the edge of the blade into plasma, as arcs of lightning travel between the blade's tip and the air just outside of it.

(2) Shortsword - Same as with the Longsword.

(2) Daggers - x3. Same as with the Longsword. However, the Daggers have tiny, one time use only batteries that can be charging in the span of half a second, allowing the daggers to be thrown without losing their plasma edge.

(3) Cybernetic Eye - Elizabeth's right eye is cybernetically augmented. She can see magnetic fields along with other types of electromagnetic radiation. Such as microwaves, radiowaves, Infrared, Visible, Ultaviolet, X-Ray, Gamma, and Cosmic. However, she has to switch between the settings.


(3) Cybernetic Arm - Elizabeth's right arm is made up of black metal and is stronger than a normal arm. It is durable and hardy, and is difficult to break. Doesn't have any awesome abilities, it is just an arm.


History:
A single mother, a daughter cursed. A duo that lived in a small village, on a world long forgotten. A father that left before his daughter was born, unknown, unseen. Elizabeth grew up here, in this village, she was the cursed child. For 15 years she endured torment and agony. She was hated for her blood, and for her situation. With no father to call her own, she was the daughter of a whore. With no father to call her own, she was a monster. Originally a kind, upbeat girl, Elizabeth soon became jaded with the reality of the world.
As such, to protect herself, the girl turned to blades when she was but 8 years old. She had to teach herself, as no bladesman would take her as a student. Her style became erratic, difficult to follow, difficult to parry. She learned to strike fast and hard, leaving no openings.
However, she lost one time. She was 16. They were in their twenties. A group of five men had attacked, hating her half-breed heritage. They took her eye, and her arm. Forced to flee, they burned her home, her mother within it. She fled. She kept running until she came upon the capital.
Clothed in a tattered cloak, she made her way through the winding streets. Technology was advanced in the capital, home to the rich and the poor. She fell in love. Machines did not betray, machines did not hate. She fell into this world of machinery and logic. Keeping up with her sword skills, Elizabeth became fluent in using her left hand for a variety of tasks. When she turned 20, she had finally finished her own side projects. A longsword, shortsword, and three daggers now adorned her body. THe longsword clasped to her back, shortsword on her left hip, the daggers in the inside of her coat. Her arm, new and finished, gleamed from underneath her sleeve as a piercing blue eye, seeing all things, looked over it.
Having finished her little stint in the capital, Elizabeth returned to the village of her birth, and burned it. She made it all crumble, Lightning descended just as her blades did. Beautiful and deadly, the survivors of the gruesome massacre gave Elizabeth her title. Lady of Storm and Blade.
Her business finished, the woman quickly returned to the capital and signed up on a starship's crew. A year has passed since then. Elizabeth has forgotten the name of her home, too many painful memories. Now, she searches, a new home is out there. SHe knows it, she just doesn't know where.

OTHER: a matrix is merely an electrical circuit of some form. Just using fancy wording for it.

@Drakey Being able to telepathically control metal and its properties seems like it would be tier 4 at the least, similar to the lightning blood ability. The latter mentions a matrix, but I don't see that item in your profile. Could you expand please?

A matrix is a circuit, just different wording

My explanation for making her lightning blood tier 3 is that she can't use it in pinpoint attacks by itself. As such, it is not as versatile as what I would percieve a tier 4 ability to be.

As for the metal based magic: she can only control 1 lb at any time. Thus, it can only be used in pinpoint attacks and has no potential for a large scale manuever of any kind. Example:

A bullet flying at her, if she notices it, then she can stop it. If she doesn't see it, she will get hit by said bullet.

A ship flying at her, she cannot stop that. It's just too big.

Does this work, or do you need me to explain it in more depth in the CS? I believe it to be just a difference in interpretation of the tiers. If you would still like me to change my CS, then I can.

@Drakey Thanks for the update. The reason I say tier 4 is because tier 5 is telekinesis of large objects, like ships, and tier 3 is illusion magic basically and doesn't have much potential for harm. Meanwhile, tier 4 is where magic starts to become dangerous, like sending a pound of metal flying at somebody's head with just your mind or raining down bolts of lightning even if they are at random and too weak to make someone explode. Does that make sense?

Yes that does make sense. As you can see, I changed them both to be tier 4 abilities.

Also, the bolts of lightning are not random, and they can fry a human being. However, they are not accurate, which makes what they hit pretty much random.
