Nilin found herself nodding her head gently, halfway paying attention to the babbling introduction of the other hero as she carefully tried to be inconspicuous about pulling out her earbuds, having realized her mistake about asking a question with them in. Normally, she would have just lip read to understand what someone else was saying but in this case that was far more difficult for obvious reasons. By the time she had rectified the music situation, she was already frowning behind her mask and displeased with the current turn of events. If the suggestion or more like warning about sampling anything in the lab wasn’t enough to irritate her for assuming she would, then the mere fact that she had been ditched by her supposed teammates was enough to do the trick. She had to put her faith and trust into her teammates more than anyone else but right now, she was feeling let down before it even began. What if they didn’t show up? Sure, this time would be fine since she had enough confidence in her fighting ability to keep up with SSV but what if this had been for a meta human capture? She wouldn’t have been able to really put up a fight against that depending on the powers they possessed.

She opened her mouth to respond to Piranha Boy but the words died on her lips as she felt two more power signatures enter the area, both practically screaming at her since she had nothing to tune them out after such a sudden appearance. Nilin felt frozen in place, feeling that all too familiar link being formed and instantly going a bit pale as she had to wonder what in god's name she had just copied while their vigilante had been spotted. It didn’t seem like she would have time to disconnect either so it appeared she would be rolling with the punches and pray she got lucky enough that the random roulette worked in her favor. She took a deep breath, ready to focus when she was thrown off kilter by a soothing masucline voice ringing out in a friendly greeting with no apology she might add which caused her to turn around to glance at the first teammate approaching and apparently the one she had ended up linking with.

He was definitely attractive, though in all honesty, that wasn’t the most surprising fact with the track record for HERO but she could go as far to say that this man was particularly striking. It would be easy to get lost in those unique amethyst eyes that were currently sparkling with mirth from a laugh not moments ago. The long wild blue tresses were dazzling against the ivory of his skin as well as complimented the color of his eyes but she did wonder if it was natural or not as it might give her some kind of indication on which power he had. Either way, she linked her fingers together behind her back, trying to keep a professional appearance and not say something she might regret. Besides, she was not one to swoon over a pretty face since what really mattered was the person underneath so Nilin decided to write him off, grateful that at least one teammate had arrived and ready to put her full attention back into the mission when she was thrown through a loop again. She thought he was trying to give an explanation to why he was late, leading into an apology of some sort but nope, instead she was looking at him with a raised eyebrow as he held out her favorite soda while giving her a charming smile.

’Is he for real?’, she thought, not able to do anything but stare while being extremely thankful for the mask blocking most of her expression. She should have probably felt flattered to be thought of, let alone offered the beverage but she felt awkward and flustered. ’Is he some kind of stalker or something? Or am I being pranked? No one just out right guesses someone’s favorite flavored soda right away, do they? Is he just trying to be nice or make me forgive him?’, she questioned herself, her brows furrowing at what she viewed as an odd turn of events. Nilin was pulled from the mini internal questioning as her teammate looked up, making her gaze naturally follow suit as she was back on mission mode. She could sense the drink being held out to her still, having trouble ignoring it since she was not one to be rude or refuse a peaceful gesture so she took the can while her eyes never left the vent above. ”Thank you.”, she said in a soft voice before her free hand went to the mask, removing it and cracking open the can and taking a sip with a soft hum of approval. She planned on waiting a bit longer before moving to a better position.

He almost made her roll her eyes at him or facepalm at the way he commented on the vigilante’s arrival when a new voice cut in to save her. It seemed that maybe it wouldn’t be just the two of them on a mission after all. The enthusiasm of the girl before her already had a gentle smile on her lips. The woman instantly was what she would call the cute category, personality wise and physically. Her cheeks dapples with freckles that refused to be hidden, showing even more prominently because of her smile. The poof of her hair reminded her of cotton candy or clouds, the tipped bleach blond standing out brightly against the deep chocolate that was her natural hair color. It was definitely much more styled than her own hair which was almost always down, maybe a messy bun or ponytail now and then. For some reason, this girl seemed familiar to her though but in all honesty, she had no idea why since she was sure they had never met. This is gonna bug me later, I just know it. Maybe I’ve heard about her somewhere?’ , she thought. Nilin decided with both of them that ‘better late than never’ was the way to go and move past it to get to what was really important at this moment, the mission. ”I’m glad you are both here but I think we should get into position. Nothing like the element of surprise after all!”, she smiled, taking another sip of her drink before sliding into the crowd of interns and trying to find a good placement for herself before SSV grand entrance.

“Ren. Quick, I have to talk to you.”

”Sol? What’s going on? Is something wrong?”, she asked curiously, a hint of worry etched into the tone of her voice. Nilin hadn’t expected him to be here and while she felt silly for having tuned out his presence so easily, it was a relief to have a familiar face out of a group of heroes she didn’t know.

Solomon’s eyes kept moving under the mask to ensure the distance between them and the others. He seemed to be in anticipation of the ‘target’s’ arrival. ”There’s more to this than what meets the eye…but, I want to ask two things of you: One, and I know it’s counter-intuitive, don’t lock up the target. I’ll handle her, which leads into the second thing; which is to keep my presence on this mission under wraps. HERO doesn’t know I’m here, and I’d prefer to keep it that way.”

His silver eyes finally settled on the purple haired girl, settling a gloved hand on her shoulder. ”I’ll explain better when I have more time…”

The gloved hand on her shoulder did little to settle her nerves on the subject, teeth biting the inside of her lip as she mulled over what he had said. Let her go? Yeah, very counterintuitive indeed. The whole point was to capture her so that HERO could handle the situation. It would be the best option for everyone involved, right? The debate she had with herself earlier and now this on top of it made her doubt if that was true though. He was taking a huge risk with this and ultimately asking her to lie or at the very least omit the truth in his favor. Nilin sighed, her shoulders drooping slightly in defeat and praying she was about to make the right choice. ”Alright, but you owe me one and I expect that explanation later.” she answered, pausing only a moment before continuing. ”Don’t make me regret this, okay?”

Solomon’s tense form seemed to ease with her agreement, even so far as an exhale being audible. He didn’t want to have to face her on top of whatever HERO had in store. If he was honest, he didn’t want to do any of this, but he had to. They needed SSV. The young man let go of her shoulder and was soon to say something else but that was when something caught his eye. As smoke started to filter into the room subtly, he nudged her.

”I appreciate this, regardless of what happens.” Was all he added before heading off to pace past the interns, pretending to supervise.

”Yeah, yeah. What are friends for?”, Nilin shrugged and waved it off as nothing though she was still nervous and on edge. She only had a moment to watch him head off before darkness fell over the area with only little flames from the burners to be shown. She could hear people frantically working to grab flashlights or find out what was going on but she was working to slip on the mask she had acquired earlier, suddenly feeling lucky that she had grabbed it. Who was to say SSV would use something to further shroud herself from view in anticipation of them trying to use light. She reached behind her, shoving the over shirt aside as she pulled out her weapon and let it hang at her side in a strong grip as she moved slowly, keeping a defensive stance. Nilin would keep her promise and try not to capture SSV. She knew how to act the part and possibly under the veil of darkness, she could help with the situation a bit without being caught or blamed for doing so. ’Let the party begin…, she thought.

Time seemed to have been a lost concept as a pair of chestnut irises gazed out over the vast expanse of glittering lights that made up the city she called home. She had been like this since the last rays of sunshine dipped away, fading the swirl of warm colors that once painted the sky and instead turning it into a dazzling show of stars or at least that’s what it would've been if the lights she now gazed at didn’t pollute and dim the view, stealing the show for themselves. The distant sound of honking traffic pulled her back from the rabbit hole that was her thoughts causing her gaze to finally shift downward as her hand dug into the pocket of jean shorts. A frown etched its way onto her features as she finally glanced at the time lighting up on her cell before shoving it away once more in frustration. She always prided herself with being punctual, setting an example and presenting herself in the best light if possible which is why she had arrived long before she had been expected let alone needed but now look at her, late. Nilin hadn’t meant to find herself completely lost in thought, spending hours leaning against the metal fire escape railing of some random run down building near the location that would be her first mission. In truth, it was that very same mission she was currently thinking over because while she knew what she must do and that ultimately it was to protect the vigilante as well as others that might follow suit and avoid future damage but...if anyone could understand a bit of this Shadow Scythe Vengeance woman, it would be her.

When someone else blessed with powers wasn’t around her to make her able to feel the power that lingered in her own veins, she was just the same as SSV. That one thought sparked many others on how she felt about the situation because she could see herself trying the same route had HERO not been an option for her. Nilin couldn’t state that the vigilante wasn’t skilled or prepared either. A bit eager, sure, but their plans of action were solid and warnings were stated against trying such actions and even going as far as to provide other ways for citizens to help. The vigilante was simply trying to help her city or that is the sense she got from pouring herself into the vigilante’s videos which were not her normal fashion of things to watch. It had started out as a kind of know thy enemy kind of deal which is how she ended up spending the morning and most of the afternoon for that matter with a bowl of extra buttery popcorn, sweeping through the collective majority of videos and skipping over the things like video game play and what not to get to the fighting. Slowly, as she continued onward, Nilin actually enjoyed herself in her study and even possibly looked over a couple of non-work related videos (which she would absolutely deny doing) and got a bit of a laugh or a genuine smile at this woman’s character. The problem is, she actually liked SSV and she didn’t know how much trouble she would be in with HERO when she was caught.

She shook her head, focusing back to the present with a deep sigh while dragging her fingers through her ebony locks. ’Better to just get this over with...I can’t let my teammates wait on me forever.’, she thought, pulling her hair up into a messy bun as she made her way across the catwalk to the waiting ladder. Nilin slid herself down said ladder, plopping onto the street below with a louder thunk than usual since the boots she wore currently were much different from the ones she had designed costume wise. The name of the game was to blend in and not stick out so she did just that, donning on street attire instead of going full costume. She mostly appeared as she would have on a normal day, jean shorts accompanied a loose grey t-shirt that had a random graphic design, part of which was hidden under the red flannel shirt she had tossed over it with the sleeves at least rolled up near her elbows. Comfy and easy to move around in though that didn’t mean she was without some of her usual equipment, always one to keep prepared. A short stroll later, she finally made her way into the warehouse, using the designated entrance for them and having the first glimpse of the stage they had set.

She could smell the chemicals in the air before she could even hear the bubbling of liquids which in part was being drowned out by casual conversations as they all waited for their guest to arrive. Her nose crinkled in distaste, her arm going up to her nose to block it before snagging a mask for herself and scanning the room. If she hadn’t been in the know about the ruse, Nilin doubted she would have believed this wasn’t a true up and running meth lab. Apparently, there was absolutely no problem in making the scene as authentic as possible within a matter of days and more than enough willing bodies to play as meth makers or henchmen. Suddenly, it felt like something was grating against her nerves, a headache trying to form as her power was slowly trying to reach out to the few meta humans within the bunch, the range close enough now that she had hit a current point. She could pick them easily out of the bunch, some more obvious than others but she wasn’t in the mood to play with the unknown just yet. The extra metahumans for the scene were all well and good for any backup but she only knew her teammates powers so with that she quickly pressed in her headphones, keeping her attention on the music to help tune out the unwanted connections trying to form. She hoped for the best as she moved into the crowd, the confident and relaxed steps she had previously now slower and more hesitant as Nilin worked her way over to Mr. Fish Face to see if he know where the others were. She only took a moment every now and then to appear as though she was working on one thing or another to seem less suspicious or out of place if being watched, subtly glancing up at least once to see if anything was amiss yet, figuring that would be the point of entry though nothing could be confirmed until she spoke with the ones that set everything up. Finally reaching her destination, she asked straight out,”Have the others arrived yet?”, crossing her arms as she waited for answer and probably appearing like she was irritated but in all honestly she was just hugging herself and trying desperately to tune out the powers of the piranha in front of her, hoping the sooner she got answers, the quicker she could put some distance between them.

Full-time Operative for HERO
Former Private Investigator

[ APPEARANCE ]

Straight jet black hair falls just below her shoulders, brushing up against the lightly tanned skin of her rounded cheeks. Her delicate face framed by a pair of fake wire-rimmed glasses sitting at the bridge of her nose, which do not come close to hiding her almond-shaped chestnut colored eyes which seemed to give off a doe-like expression. A petite frame of 5’3 and a 120 pounds makes her appear fragile to most at first glance but if one were to look closer they would see the lean muscle of her arms and toned legs which suggest a different story.

She can mostly be found in sweaters or anything that is loose fitting as it gives her a comfy feel. She does not mind showing a bit of skin but is usually reserved for tank tops and off the shoulder shirts. Jeans and leggings will always be her first choice but every now and then you could be blessed with seeing her in a dress though for her they are usually saved for special occasions.

Suit Appearance

[ PERSONALITY TRAITS ]

Nilin is the kind of person that always seems to be there when you need someone to lend you an ear or a shoulder to cry on. She is very loyal and protective of her friends and those she views as her makeshift family. She is soft-spoken and caring to those around her which would make most think she is not cut out to be a fighter but that image of her will change rather quickly if you get on her bad side. She is known for having a sharp tongue and will cut you down to size flawlessly if you are deserving of it.

Nilin can seem shy or nervous with crowds sometimes but she has her reasons for this. If you knew her on a personal level then you would find that she is fearless and is willingly spontaneous on the fly. She is happy to give her input freely and always open to change, rolling with the punches of life. She is very aware that she could be hurt and is very weak compared to most but she will not deny what she is and wants to make a difference.

[ BIO ]

To say her parents' relationship was a toxic one would be an understatement and adding her into the mix had just placed further complications. Her father was a bit of a mixed bag personality wise and not in a good way. One moment he could almost seem like the perfect example of husband and father, doting and caring. The next, he could be just downright hateful being abusive physically and verbally to both her mother and her which only worsened when he drowned into alcohol. He would manipulate her mother’s emotions, press on the fear conditioned over the years or even use Nilin as a threat against her so she would not even entertain the idea of leaving him. It became the normal of her life, not realizing what a happy family should be but even ignorant she still debated running away from it all. Sadly, she couldn’t bring herself to do so as she wouldn’t abandon her mother to stay with a monster. It was them two against the world, allies in the hell that was their lives that neither one could stand up against. Keeping each other’s hopes up and just trying to survive even though escape could have been so very simple. She told herself that if she followed the rules laid out, listened to her mother, and never talked back to her father then maybe more good days would happen. Nilin found herself avoiding the problems of home by doing extra curricular activities and anything to pass the time. Gymnastics being the main she tried for a bit of freedom and if a bruise or two appeared then at least it would be an easy explanation to blame it on. It wasn’t a perfect life or a fairytale by any means but at least she thought it couldn’t get worse than this. How very wrong she was because in the end, things boiled over as things tend to do, a night of too much paranoia and drinking led to the very last time her mother would protect her.

She found herself alone, a father in jail and her mother gone with only a pair of glasses to remember her by. She blamed herself, not being strong enough to stand up to her father or to protect her mother and for not convincing her to leave sooner. Nilin bounced around, in and out of new homes over the next few years of her young life, going wherever they had the room. She dropped gymnastic classes, switching to karate while keeping up the gymnastics in her own personal time as a hobby since it was still enjoyable but she never wanted to be weak again so she worked hard to be different. If she was a troublemaker or got roughed up to learn then that is what she would do. That was much to the dismay of the places she lived which only added to the more unstable lifestyle she possessed and a key factor in her moving so much. She eventually landed in a foster home that would one day become her forever home though she knew little about that at the time. A wild bunch of kids ranging from different ages, some with powers and some without, all in the care of a lovely pair who worked to take on what others might view as lost causes.

Victor, while stern and on the more serious side, was kind, clearly adoring his wife and actually viewed all of the children they housed as theirs since he took an active role to support them like a real parent should. A lover of history, the place was filled to the brim with his archeological collection and articles of what had been his discoveries. It was fascinating to hear the tales behind each object (knights and samurai armor being her absolute favorite) and to hear about all the places he had been. He always stated that the key to the future lies in the past, we just need to make sure you use the right key, an easy way to say learn from your mistakes. Gemini was always the soft spoken one and the voice of reason, a true nurturer through and through. She reminded Nilin so much of her own mother and it was easy to let the woman become a role model to her. Her mother couldn’t be replaced but having Gemini eased the pain and guilt she felt at the loss of her mother. It was a surprise to her in the early days that instead of being something like a stay at home mom or a nurse, she was a private investigator and owner of a small company. That she helped people in a different way. It set her down a better path, a goal to reach for and focus on that wasn’t in a negative light. She joined the small agency when she was out of high school and worked there almost two years before she decided that she needed a change. That she could do more and help more so she started looking into HERO, signing up.

| MISCELLANEOUS |

• She has a large family though none of them are related to her.
• She often has headphones or a book to help her drown out other peoples signatures, trying to focus on anything else other than linking. It isn’t the greatest or most successful method but does help.
• She has perfect vision. Her glasses do not have a prescription in them but she wears them for sentimental value

[ RANKING ]

B

[ POWERS ]

Telepathic Synchronization
A telepathic link that synchronizes to a single chosen individual around her and adjusts her body to contain and mimic the powers of another person.

Qualities of Ability:
- Brain Wave Signature - Nilin can automatically sense if someone has powers as her own powers try to synchronize with the individuals around her without her control until she can tune them out and recognize their own individual signature/pattern. It does come in handy to know who is who without looking. The negative side, it is one of the reasons she does not like crowds and will try to avoid being in that situation as much as possible because she is not sure what the outcome will be with a Russian roulette of a random power.

- Telepathic Mimicry - Nilin syncronizes her brain waves with that of another via a telepathic link and once they are connected, she mimics the powers they possess and they become her own. It isn't to say that she can perfectly control this power the first time as it is like having a new power spring up that you don't know the limits too. She could easily wear herself out or overdo it without realizing. With practice and training, she can learn the power and the person that wields it to have more control and become fluent with the host powers.

- Physical Reconstruction - On a physical level, Nilin's body adjusts and changes so she can house the powers she receives. You can't spit acid without your body being ready for such an action after all. This is not really a pleasant experience but one she must endure if she wants to use someone else's powers. It would be like growing suddenly and causes aching if not worse depending on the changes that must be made.

Strengths of Ability
- Original Strength - When Nilin copies the powers of another, she gains all of the strengths they have when using their powers.

- Rank Boost - Her power level boosts to the same rank as the person she is copying and might be a little less than the original if she is still trying to learn the power.

- Sensing - Due to her syncronizing with brain waves, she can sense who is near her if she remembers what the person's brain wave feels like or looks like. It is a nifty trick for her to pinpoint someone in a crowd.

Weaknesses of Ability
- Original Weakness - While she gains all the strengths of the power she is using, she also takes all the weaknesses of that power as well. There is no picking or choosing what to copy as it is an all package deal.

- Mental Blocks - Her powers will not work on someone who can shield their minds or block her from their thoughts. If she can't synchronize then she cannot mimic their powers. This makes her weak against people with mental capabilities.

- Reconstruction - Physical Reconstruction can be extremely painful in some cases and she has to work through the pain. It is complete willpower that helps her through this. It helps having the powers linked before going into battle but sometimes you have to do what you have to do. It can make her a little weaker though if the pain is too much and less able to do certain moves.

- Alone - If Nilin does not have another person around her then she is by all definition, completely human. Yes, she is trained/skilled fighter but even that will only get her so far. She has to tag team with someone else which means she is very vulnerable without them. If she slips up and gets too far away then this could be a dangerous outcome for her.

Limitations of Ability
- Range - Nilin has to stay within a certain range of the person she is linked to or she will lose all the powers that she is copying. This range can get a little broader with trying but there will always be a limit she cannot pass.

- Multiple Mimicry - She cannot copy the powers of more than one person at any given time. If she needed another power, she would have to desynchronize with the person she was linked with so she could synchronize with another. This all takes a good amount of time to do.

- Control - She does not have perfect control of powers gained. She actually has to work hard and train to get better at the powers so that she can understand how they work and what to avoid doing. She actually has to lean on the other person to advise her.

[ PHYSICAL STRENGTH ]
■■■□□□□□□□

« 3/10 » She is above the average human in terms of strength but the only reason for this is that she has trained her body, pushed herself to the limit, and kept herself in good shape. She has learned to use other peoples strengths against them in battle because she is still weak when not linked to another.

[ AGILITY ]
■■■□□□□□□□

« 3/10 » Without someone to link with, she is the equivalent to a track star which is faster than most but nothing special. What gives her a bit more edge is her training in gymnastics which helps boost this so she can evade and do flips with ease.

[ INTELLIGENCE ]
■■■■■□□□□□

« 5/10 » She is by no means a genius and doesn’t pretend to be but she is clever and likes to look at things in a different way. For her, things are a puzzle or a mystery to figure out and she works to get to the bottom of it. If anything, street smarts are always a positive to have.

[ DESTRUCTIVENESS ]
■■□□□□□□□□

« 2/10 » To think she is destructible without the assistance of a link is laughable. Sure, she can do what an average human can but that doesn’t come anywhere close to what powers can do.

[ LETHALITY ]
■■□□□□□□□□

« 2/10 » She has the fighting skills to be lethal for an average human being but for someone with powers, not likely. Even if she has the skills to do so, she would refuse to do so. She will always try to avoid the taking of a life if there is any way out of doing so.

[ ENDURANCE ]
■■■■■■■□□□

« 7/10 » In terms of stamina, she is probably not going to be winning any awards and is pretty average. The reason for her ranking being so high is that she is literally built to endure through the pain and unpleasantness of the changes to her body. She can take on a massive amount of pain without passing out or giving up. She works through it and while it can weaken her and she can be hurt, it takes a lot to actually *keep* her down.

[ EFFICACY ]
■■□□□□□□□□

« 2/10 » Without another person to link with, she is helpless and must rely on her fighting skills alone. This is not enough to give her any rank other than the one listed.

[ SKILLS ]

- Nunchaku - Combines offensive and defensive moves, so both locks and strikes. She usually wields it with one hand, but it can also be paired with other weapons if she chooses. Nilin whirls it around, using its hardened handles for blunt force, as well as wrapping its chain around an attacking weapon to immobilize or disarm an opponent. Nunchaku training has increased her hand speed, improve posture, self-restraint and conditioned her hands.

- Tai Chi Chuan - While most think of this for medical benefits such as stress relief and doing something akin to yoga, it is also a slowed down graceful form of actual combat. Speed up the existing motions learned and they have a very real application for each move. Tai Chi Chuan's emphasis on the technique of yielding and attacking at the same time means there should be defensive and offensive intention in each movement so that the counterstrike will be quicker and will seize the opponent's weak area before they can recover. This combination involves every part of the body; thus she trained her whole body to be sensitive, nimble and flexible. This is different from most martial arts styles where offensive and defensive techniques occur separately.

- Gymnastics - Nilin uses this to flip away from enemies and to be able to jump over objects with more ease. It has helped train her upper body to be able to hold her body weight if she would need to be more stealthy. She can't know for sure but in her opinion, she has displayed more physical agility and coordination with the help of gymnastics.

Minor Skills: Sewing, Cooking, Gardening

[ EQUIPMENT ]

- Metal Claws - While making her suit, she was semi-inspired by the knights of old and made a metal shoulder armor to protect that side and use more for blocking or ramping if need be. It didn't seem complete with just the shoulder as a defense so she continued down the arm to make some nice moveable metal claws on one hand of her suit. This adds a little kick to her punches or she can use the claws which will give them a good scratch and do worse depending on where she can land a hit.

- Throwing Daggers - She can't do anything crazy like hitting a fly square on but she still has a pretty amazing aim. She could probably chuck a dagger at you and pin you to the wall without actually hitting you. It gets a little harder with a moving target so she is not 100% accurate and can, of course, miss what she is trying to hit. If the person is behind a box then there is nothing a dagger would do but out in the open, maybe she could hit their hand and make them drop a weapon or focus on the pain and attack.

- Nunchucks - In close quarter battles, she can be extremely lethal with this weapon. She knows where to hit that is painful, where to knock you out or worse. If you are not skilled in this weapon, you could easily hurt yourself instead of your opponent but this is not something she is worried about anymore. When training in karate, they were sure to teach you to be effective in this skill. She tucks this weapon in a special loop that is on the back of her belt.

She is happy to give her input freely and always open to change, rolling with the punches of life. She is very aware that she could be hurt and is very weak compared to most but she will not deny what she is and wants to make a difference.

[ BIO ]

To say her parents' relationship was a toxic one would be an understatement and adding her into the mix had just placed further complications. Her father was a bit of a mixed bag personality wise and not in a good way. One moment he could almost seem like the perfect example of husband and father, doting and caring. The next, he could be just downright hateful being abusive physically and verbally to both her mother and her which only worsened when he drowned into alcohol. He would manipulate her mother’s emotions, press on the fear conditioned over the years or even use Nilin as a threat against her so she would not even entertain the idea of leaving him. It became the normal of her life, not realizing what a happy family should be but even ignorant she still debated running away from it all. Sadly, she couldn’t bring herself to do so as she wouldn’t abandon her mother to stay with a monster. It was them two against the world, allies in the hell that was their lives that neither one could stand up against. Keeping each other’s hopes up and just trying to survive even though escape could have been so very simple. She told herself that if she followed the rules laid out, listened to her mother, and never talked back to her father then maybe more good days would happen. Nilin found herself avoiding the problems of home by doing extra curricular activities and anything to pass the time. Gymnastics being the main she tried for a bit of freedom and if a bruise or two appeared then at least it would be an easy explanation to blame it on. It wasn’t a perfect life or a fairytale by any means but at least she thought it couldn’t get worse than this. How very wrong she was because in the end, things boiled over as things tend to do, a night of too much paranoia and drinking led to the very last time her mother would protect her.

She found herself alone, a father in jail and her mother gone with only a pair of glasses to remember her by. She blamed herself, not being strong enough to stand up to her father or to protect her mother and for not convincing her to leave sooner. Nilin bounced around, in and out of new homes over the next few years of her young life, going wherever they had the room. She dropped gymnastic classes, switching to karate while keeping up the gymnastics in her own personal time as a hobby since it was still enjoyable but she never wanted to be weak again so she worked hard to be different. If she was a troublemaker or got roughed up to learn then that is what she would do. That was much to the dismay of the places she lived which only added to the more unstable lifestyle she possessed and a key factor in her moving so much. She eventually landed in a foster home that would one day become her forever home though she knew little about that at the time. A wild bunch of kids ranging from different ages, some with powers and some without, all in the care of a lovely pair who worked to take on what others might view as lost causes.

Victor, while stern and on the more serious side, was kind, clearly adoring his wife and actually viewed all of the children they housed as theirs since he took an active role to support them like a real parent should. A lover of history, the place was filled to the brim with his archeological collection and articles of what had been his discoveries. It was fascinating to hear the tales behind each object (knights and samurai armor being her absolute favorite) and to hear about all the places he had been. He always stated that the key to the future lies in the past, we just need to make sure you use the right key, an easy way to say learn from your mistakes. Gemini was always the soft spoken one and the voice of reason, a true nurturer through and through. She reminded Nilin so much of her own mother and it was easy to let the woman become a role model to her. Her mother couldn’t be replaced but having Gemini eased the pain and guilt she felt at the loss of her mother. It was a surprise to her in the early days that instead of being something like a stay at home mom or a nurse, she was a private investigator and owner of a small company. That she helped people in a different way. It set her down a better path, a goal to reach for and focus on that wasn’t in a negative light. She joined the small agency when she was out of high school and worked there almost two years before she decided that she needed a change. That she could do more and help more so she started looking into HERO, signing up.

| MISCELLANEOUS |

• She has a large family though none of them are related to her.
• She often has headphones or a book to help her drown out other peoples signatures, trying to focus on anything else other than linking. It isn’t the greatest or most successful method but does help.
• She has perfect vision. Her glasses do not have a prescription in them but she wears them for sentimental value

[ RANKING ]

B

[ POWERS ]

Telepathic Synchronization
A telepathic link that synchronizes to a single chosen individual around her and adjusts her body to contain and mimic the powers of another person.

Qualities of Ability:
- Brain Wave Signature - Nilin can automatically sense if someone has powers as her own powers try to synchronize with the individuals around her without her control until she can tune them out and recognize their own individual signature/pattern. It does come in handy to know who is who without looking. The negative side, it is one of the reasons she does not like crowds and will try to avoid being in that situation as much as possible because she is not sure what the outcome will be with a Russian roulette of a random power.

- Telepathic Mimicry - Nilin syncronizes her brain waves with that of another via a telepathic link and once they are connected, she mimics the powers they possess and they become her own. It isn't to say that she can perfectly control this power the first time as it is like having a new power spring up that you don't know the limits too. She could easily wear herself out or overdo it without realizing. With practice and training, she can learn the power and the person that wields it to have more control and become fluent with the host powers.

- Physical Reconstruction - On a physical level, Nilin's body adjusts and changes so she can house the powers she receives. You can't spit acid without your body being ready for such an action after all. This is not really a pleasant experience but one she must endure if she wants to use someone else's powers. It would be like growing suddenly and causes aching if not worse depending on the changes that must be made.

Strengths of Ability
- Original Strength - When Nilin copies the powers of another, she gains all of the strengths they have when using their powers.

- Rank Boost - Her power level boosts to the same rank as the person she is copying and might be a little less than the original if she is still trying to learn the power.

- Sensing - Due to her syncronizing with brain waves, she can sense who is near her if she remembers what the person's brain wave feels like or looks like. It is a nifty trick for her to pinpoint someone in a crowd.

Weaknesses of Ability
- Original Weakness - While she gains all the strengths of the power she is using, she also takes all the weaknesses of that power as well. There is no picking or choosing what to copy as it is an all package deal.

- Mental Blocks - Her powers will not work on someone who can shield their minds or block her from their thoughts. If she can't synchronize then she cannot mimic their powers. This makes her weak against people with mental capabilities.

- Reconstruction - Physical Reconstruction can be extremely painful in some cases and she has to work through the pain. It is complete willpower that helps her through this. It helps having the powers linked before going into battle but sometimes you have to do what you have to do. It can make her a little weaker though if the pain is too much and less able to do certain moves.

- Alone - If Nilin does not have another person around her then she is by all definition, completely human. Yes, she is trained/skilled fighter but even that will only get her so far. She has to tag team with someone else which means she is very vulnerable without them. If she slips up and gets too far away then this could be a dangerous outcome for her.

Limitations of Ability
- Range - Nilin has to stay within a certain range of the person she is linked to or she will lose all the powers that she is copying. This range can get a little broader with trying but there will always be a limit she cannot pass.

- Multiple Mimicry - She cannot copy the powers of more than one person at any given time. If she needed another power, she would have to desynchronize with the person she was linked with so she could synchronize with another. This all takes a good amount of time to do.

- Control - She does not have perfect control of powers gained. She actually has to work hard and train to get better at the powers so that she can understand how they work and what to avoid doing. She actually has to lean on the other person to advise her.

[ PHYSICAL STRENGTH ]
■■■□□□□□□□

« 3/10 » She is above the average human in terms of strength but the only reason for this is that she has trained her body, pushed herself to the limit, and kept herself in good shape. She has learned to use other peoples strengths against them in battle because she is still weak when not linked to another.

[ AGILITY ]
■■■□□□□□□□

« 3/10 » Without someone to link with, she is the equivalent to a track star which is faster than most but nothing special. What gives her a bit more edge is her training in gymnastics which helps boost this so she can evade and do flips with ease.

[ INTELLIGENCE ]
■■■■■□□□□□

« 5/10 » She is by no means a genius and doesn’t pretend to be but she is clever and likes to look at things in a different way. For her, things are a puzzle or a mystery to figure out and she works to get to the bottom of it. If anything, street smarts are always a positive to have.

[ DESTRUCTIVENESS ]
■■□□□□□□□□

« 2/10 » To think she is destructible without the assistance of a link is laughable. Sure, she can do what an average human can but that doesn’t come anywhere close to what powers can do.

[ LETHALITY ]
■■□□□□□□□□

« 2/10 » She has the fighting skills to be lethal for an average human being but for someone with powers, not likely. Even if she has the skills to do so, she would refuse to do so. She will always try to avoid the taking of a life if there is any way out of doing so.

[ ENDURANCE ]
■■■■■■■□□□

« 7/10 » In terms of stamina, she is probably not going to be winning any awards and is pretty average. The reason for her ranking being so high is that she is literally built to endure through the pain and unpleasantness of the changes to her body. She can take on a massive amount of pain without passing out or giving up. She works through it and while it can weaken her and she can be hurt, it takes a lot to actually *keep* her down.

[ EFFICACY ]
■■□□□□□□□□

« 2/10 » Without another person to link with, she is helpless and must rely on her fighting skills alone. This is not enough to give her any rank other than the one listed.

[ SKILLS ]

- Nunchaku - Combines offensive and defensive moves, so both locks and strikes. She usually wields it with one hand, but it can also be paired with other weapons if she chooses. Nilin whirls it around, using its hardened handles for blunt force, as well as wrapping its chain around an attacking weapon to immobilize or disarm an opponent. Nunchaku training has increased her hand speed, improve posture, self-restraint and conditioned her hands.

- Tai Chi Chuan - While most think of this for medical benefits such as stress relief and doing something akin to yoga, it is also a slowed down graceful form of actual combat. Speed up the existing motions learned and they have a very real application for each move. Tai Chi Chuan's emphasis on the technique of yielding and attacking at the same time means there should be defensive and offensive intention in each movement so that the counterstrike will be quicker and will seize the opponent's weak area before they can recover. This combination involves every part of the body; thus she trained her whole body to be sensitive, nimble and flexible. This is different from most martial arts styles where offensive and defensive techniques occur separately.

- Gymnastics - Nilin uses this to flip away from enemies and to be able to jump over objects with more ease. It has helped train her upper body to be able to hold her body weight if she would need to be more stealthy. She can't know for sure but in her opinion, she has displayed more physical agility and coordination with the help of gymnastics.

Minor Skills: Sewing, Cooking, Gardening

[ EQUIPMENT ]

- Metal Claws - While making her suit, she was semi-inspired by the knights of old and made a metal shoulder armor to protect that side and use more for blocking or ramping if need be. It didn't seem complete with just the shoulder as a defense so she continued down the arm to make some nice moveable metal claws on one hand of her suit. This adds a little kick to her punches or she can use the claws which will give them a good scratch and do worse depending on where she can land a hit.

- Throwing Daggers - She can't do anything crazy like hitting a fly square on but she still has a pretty amazing aim. She could probably chuck a dagger at you and pin you to the wall without actually hitting you. It gets a little harder with a moving target so she is not 100% accurate and can, of course, miss what she is trying to hit. If the person is behind a box then there is nothing a dagger would do but out in the open, maybe she could hit their hand and make them drop a weapon or focus on the pain and attack.

- Nunchucks - In close quarter battles, she can be extremely lethal with this weapon. She knows where to hit that is painful, where to knock you out or worse. If you are not skilled in this weapon, you could easily hurt yourself instead of your opponent but this is not something she is worried about anymore. When training in karate, they were sure to teach you to be effective in this skill. She tucks this weapon in a special loop that is on the back of her belt.
