NAME : Farah Malahandra
SUPERHERO NAME: Genie
AGE and BIRTHDAY: 18/March 13
APPEARANCE: Farah is considered to be a beautiful young woman. Her hair is dark brown, straight and long, but never maintained properly. Her eyes are a dark shade of green that almost appear black. Her skin has a nice shade of brown that sometimes appear caramel colored under the right light, but she rarely shows this off to most people because she covers herself up most of the time. Many people who’ve seen her clean and dressed properly, and her parents consider her to be beautiful, but she doesn’t really see that nor does she care. She doesn’t care much for appearances and rarely dresses up. Her everyday clothes consist of plain, dark colored hoodies, shirts, shorts, and sneakers. Since she doesn’t go to the field because of her non offensive abilities Farah doesn’t have a costume, but she does have a tendency to wear a cargo jumpsuit when working, with only the bare necessities underneath.

GENDER: Female
PERSONALITY: Farah is the type of person who doesn’t like to stand out, but not because she’ shy or introverted. She doesn’t like to stand out because she dislikes it when people watch her and get inquisitive about her business. By no means is she abrasive and easily angered with people, in fact most would say that she’s quite pleasant and well mannered, and she is, for the most part anyway. Under that obedient and polite façade is a thrill seeking daredevil with low impulse control and a dangerous appetite for trouble. She herself knows this and doesn’t plan on changing this part about herself because it’s fun, and she considers this to be her goal in life which is why she’s interested in being a hero because the way she sees heroes are people who make the world a better place so that people can be happy and have fun.
BACKGROUND: Farah was born to a family in the outskirts of black district close enough to the black district, but in spite of how people associate families in the black district they were a happy family. His parents owned and ran the small bar “1001” which does quite well even today. One could say that the bar was her home, and not the remodeled offices above the place. Farah lives a relatively normal childhood and even though she had powers that would have made their life easie, but her father wouldn’t allow her to do such a thing.
Her father was a normal human being with no known powers, but for some reason he always knew when Farah was up to no good, he often called this his “Instinct”. This instinct killed him. It happened really quickly, her father was counting the money for that day’s work when a masked thief came in demanding something from Farah’s father. He talked him out of it, but a “hero“ came in to stop the thief and in the ensuing chaos the gun’s trigger got pulled and hit Farah’s father in the head. He survived with no known lasting damages to his brain, but in a coma with little possibility of waking up. This was agood thing, but the operation cost them a lot of money and maintaining the machines to keep him alive would cost them even more. For a while Farah’s mother contemplated pulling the plug, but Farah couldn’t allow that. It was one of the few moments where Farah directly disobeyed her father’s rules. She made their lives easier. Using her abilities Farah produced the money needed by moving money around from various people. This didn’t go unnoticed by her mother, but what was important was that Farah’s father was alive. A member of the board of directors in MASH noticed this and realized her powers. The man would turn a relatively blind to what she did, but she must attend the school and must serve detention until she graduates. Farah agreed and the rest isn’t really important anymore.
POWERS: Farah is a Technopath. Her abilities allow her to communicate with machines, possess an intrinsic knowledge of anything technological, and to some degree manipulate them. Unlike Technopaths with the ability to telekinetically build and disassemble machines, and telepathically communicate with machines, Farah must physically build machines and touch them to communicate. To compensate for this weakness Farah is in the process of building something that will help her bypass the telepathic weakness of her ability. (Think Micah Sanders from Heroes.)
She knows that Technopathy is not an offensive power and she’s perfectly fine being a coordinator to the team, especially since she’s quite sure that as individuals they’ll do fine, but as a group they’ll just get themselves killed. In a way she considers herself to be responsible for them because she was the one who “heard” the computer reach out to her which led to the discovery of their HQ.
REASON FOR DETENTION: Farah’s serving detention for the rest of her school ife in MASH to avoid being sent to juvie, or worse.
