Oh Stephen, I changed her suit and superhero name as well :/
She's not a technopath persay, she doesn't control machines, she builds them, invents gadgets etc.

Jack was drunk, slightly, ok, probably a bit more than slightly judging by the spinning in her head. It shouldn’t have been a surprise, after all, she had consumed most of a bottle of whiskey, and the broken vodka bottle in her apartment had been three-quarters empty before she’d knocked it off the table, necessitating her trip to the near her apartment. It probably wasn’t entirely sensible, but Jack was hardly known for her sense of caution, despite her success in tactical situations. Of course, when you can take a direct hit from anti-tank weaponry and live you tended to be filled with an inflated sense of indestructability, no matter how accurate that sense may actually be.

She rapped the bar with her empty glass, and the barman approached cautiously, he knew her, and what she could be like when she’d had too much. He did however, have a grudging respect for her, even if they could not be called friends. He took the bottle down from the shelf and moved along the bar to where she was resting both elbows on its stained top.

“You sure…”

The barman didn’t bother to finish the question, Jack had given him a meaningful look and he simply set the bottle down on the bar before her, then made his way down to the other regulars at the other end. The soldier simply upended what was left of the bottle into her glass, then went back to staring at the wall until the TV caught her attention.

It was on the city’s local news channel, a ‘breaking news’ story. Some place downtown had caught fire, or exploded. The news reporter didn’t seem sure, even in her drunken state though, Jack could see that it had to have been an explosion. She watched the muted TV for a while, then when nothing more interesting came on downed the rest of the whiskey and dropped a few bills onto the bar.

She hadn’t bothered with a coat, not that it was necessary in LAs stifling heat. She walked the few blocks to her apartment, and let herself in, keying in the code correctly on the second attempt. She stumbled up the stairs and into the apartment, then kicked off her shoes.

Absent mindedly crushing the smashed glass beneath her bare feet as she moved unsteadily towards the bed, and fell face forward onto it. She ignored the blinking light on her phone. Jobs could wait until the morning…
Question... Given that Silas only possesses the power of imprinting (according to Stephen's index). How exactly does he nearly kick a man through a concrete wall ten feet away?
I edited my Hero Stephen :)
Name: Hana Jameson
Alias(s): Neoteris
Age: 25
Affiliations: Heroes
Description: She’s short, standing at only 5’2” and curvy, her body just the right proportion of body fat and muscle for her to be considered ‘hot’. That said, her face, while pretty, is enough to make her cute rather than beautiful. Her blue eyes are usually full of an impish humour, and her hair, blonde, is left long and straight. Her choice of clothes as a civilian is fairly average for her age.

Her costume is simple, a cat suit that covers all of her body, there is a short skirt at her waist, at the top of which is a utility belt, her sleeves have small, slim pouches on them, and there is a . It is copper in colour, but otherwise mostly undecorated, albeit with a stylised Triskellion emblazoned across the chest in silver. Her face is completely covered by a mask of the same colour as the costume, with a mesh area around her mouth and nose, and the top left open to leave her hair free. Her eyes are augmented by the visor of her mask, a set of separate lenses that are connected to the rest of her headset, and most of her equipment.

Powers: Hana Jameson possesses a parcel of abilities that all combine to make her far more of a threat than her diminutive size would otherwise suggest. The first one is perhaps the least well known, due to its relatively low impact effect. Hana is always at peak human condition, no matter what she eats, how she exercises, she is always at the very peak of human fitness, agility and strength.

The second ability is her most noted, and that is due to its occasionally impressive physical effects. Hana is an inventor, a developer of fantastic technology, apparently in defiance of modern restrictions. This allows her to create compact forms of common technologies, as well as creating some other, far more advanced technologies such as blasters and advanced gyroscopes. Simple compaction of technology, such as communicators, is relatively simple, and she can create and maintain a number of such things without too much exertion. However, the more advanced the technology, or the larger it is, the harder it is for her to maintain or create more equipment. This means she can help by equipping teammates, but doing so reduces her abilities to intervene directly with more powerful pieces of technology.

Skills: Krav Maga, Kickboxing, Wadu Ryu, first aid trained, computer programming
Equipment: Motorbike, Utility belt containing wrist ties and a first aid kit. Various knick knacks and gadgets depending on what she was working on at the time.
Ranking: B

Brief History: Neoteris has a successful career behind her as a cape, one that only seems to be rising, if the records are accurate, then she has in fact been pursuing this career for a little over ten years, and her skills have only improved in that time. She has achieved a number of impressive collars in that time, including an SS ranked parahuman, though it put her in the hospital for six months. She is also one of the most experienced capes in Los Angeles, despite her young age compared to some, and is offered respect by even more powerful heroes in other cities.
I'm planning on working on a hero once I get in, should be up fairly soon
Name: Jacqueline ‘Jack’ Vale
Alias(s): N/A
Age: 24
Affiliations: This will come later.

Description: Jack Vale stands at a not insignificant 5’9”, and is thin with it, although perhaps thin is the wrong word, and lithe would be more accurate. With an athletic build, she looks like she could have been a runner, or a gymnast. Her red hair is chopped short, with the ragged appearance that looks like she’s taken a pair of kitchen scissors to it herself. She’s attractive, and she knows it, with high, defined cheekbones, and large, innocent eyes.

She favours loose, practical clothing, often jeans or combats and relatively plain t-shirts or tops. She shies away from big brand clothing that has large logos emblazoned across them. The whole outfit tends to be rounded off with a pair of assault boots and a cap or hat of some sort, with the obligatory aviators to add further conceal her face. Her whole outfit could have been easily acquired at any of half a dozen military surplus and thrift stores in any city you care to mention.

Come show time and her outfit barely changes, it’s more additions than anything else. A heavy black, long sleeved hoodie, and a military grade assault vest, complete with the usual assortment of pouches and attachments as well as a military grade radio. Concealing her face is next, and that objective is accomplished with the use of a heavy duty Kevlar mask.

Powers: Invulnerability – While it’s unknown to what extent she is impervious to damage, it is proven that most conventional weaponry is about as effective as a mosquito bite against an elephant. This has its own drawbacks however; surgery is virtually impossible thanks to her skin’s tendency to bend any blade applied to it.

Enhanced Strength – Though hardly able to lift buildings, Jack is more than capable of ripping the doors from cars and lifting grown men off the ground with one hand without breaking a sweat. This enhanced strength allows her to run marginally faster than the average human, for longer, and even to leap greater heights.

Skills: Explosives expertise, basic marksmanship and weapons knowledge. Strategist.

Equipment: Glock 18c, M 7 Bayonet, kevlar mask, radio.

Ranking: A

Brief History: Jack spent four years serving in bomb disposal in the United States Military, she served well, technically she’s still on the books in fact, but on leave now, at the beginning of a six month extended leave after her unit took heavy casualties while on deployment.
Definitely interested in this, I will have a CS up in a couple of hours or so
