Half PintReplacement character if possible.
Secret ID: Chiara Holzmann
Alias: Butterfly
Age: 19
Home Location: Metropolis
Powers:
-Electricity creation and manipulation
-Technomancy
-Very slight telekinesis - limited to objects that Chiara could lift using her hands at the moment.
Weaknesses:
Chiara is as human as anyone else in terms of being able to withstand damage. A bullet will do the same amount of damage as it would to a regular civilian on the street without proper protection. Along with this, Chiara has a large reluctance to use her electricity powers.
Equipment:
Chiara has been outfitted with lightweight armour designed by batman that is capable of withstanding light rounds from pistols and such. She also carries a small metal pole that allows her to direct and better conduct her electricity.
Appearance:
Chiara stands at about 5 foot 6 and has very light muscle but is skinnier than she is muscular. Her hair is a bright pink, it's natural colour as hard as that is to believe, her eyebrows in contrast to this are dark brown. Her eyes are a deep blue, in stark contrast with her eccentric hair. She has a small scar that runs horizontally across her nose which she covers with a plaster which she changes every now and then.
Personality:
Chiara acts very differently depending on how well she knows the people she is speaking to. If the people are strangers or just people she doesn't know very well then she will often speak formally and think out her words before speaking. However, if she knows the person well enough then her chatty, banterous personality comes out and she will often be heard cracking jokes and whatnot. Of course, both seep into each other at times and there will be occasions where she will act like one where she would usually act like the other. Underneath both of these personalities is an undercurrent of nervousness and self disbelief. She isn't all that confident in her abilities with anything really and can often be seen biting her nails over nothing.

BRIEF Bio:
Chiara was born on a distant planet, far out of the milky way and into the deep ocean of space. The planet was very similar to Earth in terms of the environment, but resources were much more plentiful and the planet as a whole had advanced technologically at a much faster rate than earth ever had.
Her parents, two wealthy entrepreneurs who were able to ensure that, Chiara would have a good and easy life before she would take over both of their respective businesses. That is, until the news that the sun within the planets solar system would go supernova soon came around. Of course, Chiara's family were wealthy enough to purchase their own escape rocket and have it ready just a day or so before the sun would go supernova. But certain complications happened during the escape and things didn't go exactly as planned.
The sun went supernova slightly earlier than was expected, which was just enough to greatly affect the getaway ship and ruin the entire escape. It knocked the ship off of it's position and managed to damage the deep freeze pods that Chiara's parents were resting in enough to make it kill them.
Chiara was left alone in her pod, heading towards uncharted lands all without her knowledge of what was fully going on.
A year or so later and she landed on Earth. On a desolate dirt road in the middle of a forest just outside of, Hamburg in Germany. Her crashed ship was found by a couple who had gone camping and she was promptly rescued. The couple reported the crash and the appropriate authorities were called to deal with the wreckage but the couple done something behind said authorities backs. They kept Chiara. While this sounds rather strange, evil and selfish their situation was also very dire. Neither could conceive children and Chiara's adoptive father had a criminal past that no adoption agency would look past.
Of course, Chiara knew none of this, she was only about 3 when the crash happened and had always just believed that those were her real parents. Growing up was hard for, Chiara. Her father was Irish and her mother was Austrian so her accent for both English and German was a bit strange. Chiara didn't have many friends growing up, and as a result grew extremely close to the friends she did have while neglecting any new people she met unless they made an effort to become friends with her.
Chiara discovered her power at the young age of 12. She was messing around with the family's PC when a powercut happened. Shockingly enough, if you'll pardon the pun, Chiara managed to get the PC working again when a jolt of electricity shot from her fingers and into the mains plug. She hid it from her parents and friends of course, thinking she'd be viewed as some freak if she ever revealed her secret.
Chiara and her family moved to America, specifically Metropolis when she was 15 after her father had gotten a much better job there. It was around this time that she was exposed to superheroes like Superman and Batman. She adored them, keeping up on the news just so she could hear about their endeavours in saving the world. This wasn't what made her became a hero though, the tipping point for that came about a year later.
Chiara had been in a relationship with her first boyfriend for about 5 months. She was constantly nervous around him and never had the courage to properly talk to him at all really. Essentially she was a trophy girlfriend, just someone he could show to his friends to make them jealous. It didn't make Chiara feel extraordinary let's put it that way. One night he began to get a bit frisky, something Chiara was far from ready for. Before he could actually do anything he was sent flying against the wall as a jolt of electricity shot through him.
Chiara was lucky the bolt wasn't lethal, it managed to just stun him but even with that Chiara was terrified that she had hurt him in any way. Suffice to say, the relationship was over. This event made her realize the true extent of her powers and inspired her to at least attempt heroing. She snuck out one night in dark clothing and prowled the night looking for criminals. She was lucky or unlucky enough to find a mugger. She managed to jolt him with electricity, enough to numb his arm but not enough to stop him from slashing at her with his knife. She managed to dodge the most part of the slashes but her managed to slice her nose along with the top of her arms. The fight was over quickly when she managed to paralyse his legs with a well timed blast of electricity.
That was the last time, Chiara went out heroing, for a while at least. The scars from the event still exist to this day, a reminder of her "failures" as she puts it.
The event was enough for Robin to take notice though and invite her to join a super group a few years later. She really only appeared because of the small chance of meeting Batman. She was extremely shocked with the ensuing events and Robins eventual death.
Notes:
Sample Post:
A week before Robin's death
Chiara bit her thumb nail as she stared at the email on her laptop. she was trying to process in her head not only if the email was real, but also the repercussions of accepting the invite if it was real. She could hardly believe her eyes, Robin of all people had sent a email to her. She was the last person that she would have expected to receive a email of invitation to some superhero group.
She put the laptop onto the bedside cabinet to her side before laying down in her bed and rubbing her eyes with her fingers. She turned off the light and stared out of the small crack under her curtains. She liked having the luminance of the street lights come in through the window. She'd always slept like that, she hated the pitch dark, it was too eerie and she constantly thought something was in the corner just waiting to jump out on her. She stared up at the ceiling and thought more about the proposition.
"Fuck it" She said quietly to herself. She may as well go, after all what's the worse that could happen? If she ran into trouble her electricity would get her out of the situation in a jiffy.
Or so she thought.
The first Titan's meeting.
Chiara huddled her legs against herself as bullets flew all around the room and action went on like some sort of 80s B-movie. She was terrified to say the least, she had never been in a fight in her life, let alone one that involved superpowers. She looked up over her cover and saw one of the other 'members' being held back by a few goons. A look of determination grew on her face as she rose to her feet.
"G-get away you idiots!" She barely managed to squeak.
A bolt of electricity was directed to one of the multiplex goons, but went far off course and only managed to burst a lightbulb before one of the goons detached himself from Daniel and sprinted over to Chiara before sending a winding punch to her gut. She fell to her knees as Robin was murdered mere feet away from her. Tears began to well up as she watched blood pour from the wound. A quick kick to her chest ceased her crying as the multiplex goon merged back into the prime multiplex. They were gone as quickly as they had appeared and the team was left defeated and bloodied.
