False Prophet I hope things get better for you. Take it one day at a time and try to find solace in the simple things in life.

Bio
Just a small, fragile birdboy with a huge beak. I used to be Manapool, but we don't talk about those days. I have been here a while if you couldn't tell.
In all honesty, I am 23 and in a committed relationship outside of roleplay. I work as a cook who works nights. I'm a big fan of seeing people's food they make and learning about new foods if you ever want to share. I enjoy tabletop games, card games, and video games as well as reading comics in my spare time. Your typical nerd, you might even find me at conventions!
Most of the time I stick to Superhero groups and Play by post D&D here. I have admittedly begun taking far fewer rps. I prefer Fantasy and Superheroes as a genre but can find myself interested in Sci-fi settings too! My main fandoms are Fallout, Marvel, and Souleater but I have a lot of niche interests like Hylics, Neopets, and Monster High. If you have a strange fandom you want to rp? I am the kind to at least take a look at the source material!
These days I am closer to a low to mid Casual roleplayer. I want at least a paragraph from replies and don't mind dipping lower than casual if it fits the flow better. I am capable of writing decent long posts but expect me to take eons to reply. I also must warn you that I tend to lose a lot of steam in the winter months.

@Silver Carrot oh yeah, she wouldn't be taking any belts. Especially in the DC universe!
@Skwint noted I'll make her power a bit more meta humany and remove her staff and some of her abilities.

Secret ID: Chie Jordan
Alias: Shuriken
Age: 18
Home Location: Gotham
Powers:
Peak human physicality: Training in martial arts since the moment she could stand, playing varsity sports, and working out with her brother have made Chie an incredibly strong woman. She isn't superhuman by any regard but she can take much more of a beating than your average person, can run miles in minutes flat, and can lift like a bodybuilder. Compared to any enhanced person, she is relatively mundane, but against the average goon and gangster, she far excels.
Inhuman accuracy/sight: Chie, like her mother before her, has eyes like a hawk. She can see in pitch black darkness and can see farther than most people. This aids in her ability to hit things from far away accurately. With any gun, crossbow, or thrown item she can hit a 6-inch target from as far as 200 yards away. This isn't even adding the addition of scopes. Her eyes allow her to keep up with things moving with super speed, and can even see through magical illusions.
Martial arts: Years of training, sparring, and real-life experience have turned Chie into a surprisingly dangerous teenager. She is capable of fighting hand to hand, with a variety of melee or throwing weapons, and has adopted a mixed style of Karate, kick boxing, wrestling, and street techniques she has left over time. Chie's skills rival a professional fighter, because as a superhero; she is one!
Stealth and lockpicking: Picked up from her more rambunctious side of life, Chie is skilled in avoiding people's notice. Her mother taught her how to walk and jump silently, as well as how to quiet her breathing. Experience has taught her where to hide and how to trail someone inconspicuously. Chie learned to lock pick on her own and while not a master, the skill comes in handy.
Acrobatics and parkour: Chie has long since learned to traverse the sprawling cityscape in its entirety. Be it scaling walls, jumping from building to building, riding rails, and all things in between. This applies to her fighting skills as well, capable of doing flips, splits, and all in-between.
Weaknesses:
Human: Chie has no powers or additional durability. He isn't even strong for a human, he's rather weak and someone with superpowers can easily pummel or kill him in a straightforward brawl. This doesn't mean they can't hold their own in a fight inherently, just that they are at a severe disadvantage when in a battle with super-powered foes.
Social life: Chie is a very popular girl at her high school. She also has plenty of activities she participates in, such as martial arts classes, searching for a college, and a part-time job at a gas station. This, coupled with family obligations and the fact she is keeping her hero's work a secret, Chie's biggest weakness is to attack the people she holds dear to her heart or simply tell them what she has been doing.
Self-defeat: Chie has been training for years to become a one-woman fighting machine, and has maintained a level of success to be proud of for most of her short life. As such, defeats of any kind are soul-crushing for her. While she can be an impressive fighter on her own, the best way to take her out is to psyche her out, as once she feels weak or defeated it is very hard to get her to beleive in herself once more.
Equipment:
Shurikens: Simple carbonsteel 4-prong shurikens. Thanks to Oracle, she also has a series of specialized shurikens that can electrocute and explode. A particularly useful variant is shurikens with tracking devices on them.
Smoke bombs: A tool for a quick escape. It hides the use from sight and smell by covering them in a large cloud of smoke that slowly diminishes. A variant of these given to her by Oracle use a variant of scarecrow's fear toxin, which give a less intense fear affect for around five to ten minutes.
Appearance:
Personality: Brash, Prideful but modest, Selfless, Persistent
BRIEF Bio: Chie's mother was an assassin who faked her death and moved to American over a decade ago. She eventually met a man, settled down and had Chie and her older brother. Her mother taught them martial arts, but Chie seemed to really enjoy them and took the lessons in stride. Eventually, Chie's father's work forced them to move to Gotham. Chie's mother, worried about a young girl in such a dangerous town, her mother upped her training for good cause too, as eventually some members of the Jokerz gang would try and fail to kidnap her. Thus started her craving for vigilante justice, and as more and more encounters with the gang went on, she eventually started seeking out these fights. This would lead her to join the Robins, and when they disbanded Oracle saw the potential Chie, perhaps seeing some of herself in the young hero-to-be.
Notes: Can change whatever I need, or make a new character if you're all tired of seeing the teenage ninja.

Hey bro, long time no see. Like the story concept, would this be a decent place for me to toss shuriken in?
She does her best, but eventually her patience is going to wear thin lol
I am gross and perverted
I am obsessed and deranged
I have existed for years
but very little has changed
I'm the tool of the government
and industry too
and I am destined to rule
and regulate you
I'm the best you can get
have you guessed me yet?
I'm the slime oozing out of your tv set.

Rala rolled her eyes at another one of Aura's snide remarks at her expense. The swordswoman grit her teeth to hold back the gnawing desire to snap at the Genasai. They where allies, there was no need for her to be hostile despite it being in her nature. Instead the woman merely scoffed and replied sharply.
"Not even in your dreams, Aura" She replied bluntly.
As the other two bickered Rala scouted the area once more, looking for any miscreants or people out of place. It was curious that the hawk could change shapes but Rala had dealt with enough mages, criminal or otherwise, to understand that this was likely a familiar. She had a respect for Hawk, such a small being doing their best just to serve another. She wondered what sort of deal the two had, but felt that now was not the time to ask. Cascade seemed to not understand how bizarre her village was seeming, and Rala too felt there were getting nowhere in explaining this to the cheery child. Perhaps Cascade knew, and kept their persona up merely to feel a sense of normality amongst more common folk.

I suppose you're waiting on me. I'll reply tomorrow when I can
