@OrkytheOrc Yes ;)
@golani I was thinking about the modern times

@Squirrel98

Ok...the idea I have will fit modern day, as long as you don't mind retaining the poor treatment of some of the circus animals, which unfortunately I still remember seeing.

The concept I had was my character is a female werecat who is the circus' "big cat tamer," since she can speak to/command cats (among other things). She tries to take care of the circus cats who are otherwise trapped in cages all day, but she can't let them escape because they will be shot by the police as a threat to the public. She is just as trapped as they are, and she copes by going out and partying all night and basically being self-destructive.

So, the whole thing is a tragedy in more ways than one.

Does this fit?

NP, I shall endeavor to add two more straight-away...right after I get up tomorrow. :)

hmmmmm....interesting, I'll throw my hat in the ring :). I got an idea for a lion (tiger?) tamer. Roughly what timeframe are we talking about?

Gifted Youngster

Call-Sign/Codename

Blink

Costume
Green dress with collar and belt. Green boots. Has quiver slung over her back for her teleportation javelins.

Mutation

Blink is a mutant with the ability to create teleportation portals that can move objects or groups of people short or vast distances. Her limit is not known, but she has teleported as far as from Earth to the Moon. She uses her powers offensively by focusing her teleportation ability into creating javelins which she can throw with high accuracy. The javelins will expand into portals at her will, teleporting all or a portion of an enemy or object, or merely stunning them.

Blink is extremely fast and agile. She is skilled hand to hand fighter, having honed her skills by training with her Earth’s Sabretooth.

Weaknesses

Blink’s teleports and portals make a distinctive ‘blink’ sound that is impossible to muffle.
Blocking or deflecting Blink’s javelins will prevent a target from being teleported.
Blink needs to concentrate during combat to keep her powers from having negative effects on her companions.

Blink was transported to Earth-616 by accident and in the process lost the Talius. She has no way to return to the “crystal palace,” but is seeking a way to do so. In the mean time, she has come to the School for the Gifted for sentimental reasons, for shelter in this new reality, and to find a new family.

Here you go...one change, I did not include a post powers section because Blink arrived at the school with a good understanding of her powers and the training to use them

The Young Avengers: Probation

A question good GMs:

Are either Blink or Mimic (Exiles versions) acceptable as cannon character builds?

I got a hydrokinesis build in reserve if they are both no gos.

Oh, and trying to join the discord, but I am having some technical problems at the moment...not sure why

Hydrokinesis: Thresher has the ability to transform herself into water and has a very high degree of molecular cohesion. In her liquid form, Thresher is immune to most kinetic attacks, which simply go right through her. However, very powerful kinetic attacks will knock her over. She can flow through small openings, up pipes and even spread herself along the floor or absorbent ground for an ambush.

Thresher has extremely fine control over her transformation and can selectively turn parts of her body into “hard water” with a material strength close to that of steel. In human form she can form simple objects such as blades or hammers. When combined with an ability to stretch her body to about 100 yards she can grab, grapple, engulf, or physically hit targets at a distance. She is also capable of lifting around 10 tons.

Thresher has trained to hit targets with blasts or waves of water, At low strength, she can knock over people with little harm. At high strength, her blasts are powerful enough to dent and move a small car. However, she can only fire a few blasts before depleting the water that makes up her body. She can replenish and regenerate as long as she is in contact with significant supples of water such as from water pipes.

In a body of water, Thresher is far more powerful. She can quickly heal from wounds, and can control large amounts of water to control currents, form huge waves, hard water arms, etc. She can sense objects within a 100 yard radius and accurately target them. She is also effectively invisible, and can swim at speeds approaching 100mph (85 knots). She has no need to breath or concern herself with water pressure.

Thresher’s water form must be within the temperature limits for liquid water. High heat and related energy attacks can boil her, which is extremely painful. High enough levels of heat can cause her to evaporate, at which point she starts to loose all molecular cohesion. Extreme cold and related attacks can cause Thresher to freeze, and she can be frozen solid. If hit with sand, dirt or related material, Thresher can be turned into mud. She can still function, but is effectively slowed to about half speed until the material is purged from her body.

Rescued by an Air Force pararescue jumper from a foundering refugee ship when six months old, Thresher would never know who her real parents were. Instead, she was later adopted by the same pararesueman, Sargent John Rodgers, and his wife Mary. They named the baby Miriam.

Growing up in Portland, Miriam had a quiet childhood. She began to manifest increased physical abilities around the age of ten but her parents initially refused to make significant changes to her life. They felt that as long she was careful not to hurt others accidentally, especially her older brother James, they would be fine. This attitude quickly changed when Miriam hydrokenitic powers started to go out of control in her early teens. They sent her to the Titans Academy, where not only did she learn to control her abilities, but was able to make friends with other young metas, reducing the feelings of isolation she had back at home.

She was still at the Academy when the horror of E-day struck. After the school was closed down as the teachers and administration left for the war, Miriam was sent back home to Portland. The city thankfully had beeb spared from attack, as it had no real military value. But her father had been federalized and deployed. For the rest of the war, Miriam stayed at home with her mother and brother, watching the war on TV and trying their best to live normal lives. Too young and ill trained, Miriam felt helpless and frustrated that all she could do was sit on the sidelines.

Where the war finally ended Miriam and her family were overjoyed when Sgt. Rodgers returned home. He was physically fine, but needed psychological care for the PTSD he was suffering. Miriam was still able to attend UCLA that fall, deciding to major in civil engineering. She though that she could beat her feelings of helplessness by helping to rebuild the country after the war. She threw herself into her studies and campus social life, but the feeling of helplessness continued to nag at her.

That was until a visit by Wonder Woman to campus inspired her to sign up as a Justice League reservist. Here was the thing Miriam realized she was missing, a chance to serve. Her mother was opposed to it at first, but her father was proud that his daughter was joining the League. It was not easy balancing the training, studying and what little social life remained. During one of her exercises she accidentally destroyed a small boat, being used as a target to gauge her control. When one of the instructors noted that the effects of her attack “was like a shark had ripped the boat apart,” the other students started to call her “Thresher” as a joke. Initially annoyed by the nickname, Miriam eventually grew to like it, and made it her code name when she graduated.

She was assigned to the Los Angeles Hall of Justice where for the next few years she fought forest fires, rescued people, and captured low to medium threat criminals. These actions helped build up her skills and confidence, and were a welcome break from graduate school and work. However, as a reservist, she never had to deal with a major “Code Red” level threat, as they were usually assigned to the full-time team. She was also a bit uncertain that she wanted to, remembering her father’s PTSD.
