Profile - General Template V1.00
Name: Andrea. Gender: Female Age: 21
Height: Six and a half feet. Weight: 120 pounds. Appearance:
Wanna tangle?
Occupation: Florist
Residency: A boat house moored in the docks.
Personality:
personality Andrea's driving motivation is a perfect place for us to start. She wants to find a place where she can fit in. Throughout most of her life a, how shall we say, odd view on the world has resulted in a lack of feeling comfortable. She left her home city of Themiscyra because she disliked how the Amazonians decided how she could live. That same dissatisfaction has followed her throughout her life and resulted in what one could call "wanderlust." However the truth of the matter, as in the REAL reason, is because she gets highly restless. In fact fighting is one of a few things that quiets her soul.
Restless is a big part of Andrea's nature. Despite being an adult women she is highly restless, prone to fidgeting and hates prolonged periods of inactivity. The only two things that quiet her restlessness are fighting, mainly due to the exhaustion involved, and....her work as a florist. Yes she may be tough as nails on the outside but deep down Andrea is so very girly. With an overflowing adoration of all things adorable, perhaps a bit TOO much adoration, Andrea is the prime example of a gentle giant. Additionally being a florist is oddly enough something she takes great pleasure in an odd thing indeed given how it demands a gentle touch.
Despite her gentleness there is one thing that that will always push Andrea beyond the limits of her tolerance and that is bullies...sort of. Her dislike of bullies is merely an extension of what she truly detests and THAT is the "survival of the fittest" mentality. She can not stand those who use the fact they're stronger to dominate and control those around them however there's an issue with that belief. Andrea's response to people who act out the "strongest rule" mentality is to then act out said mentality for the sake of teaching "tyrants", as she calls them, a much deserved lesson. Simply put she breaks bullies apart.
Finally Andrea is a WOMEN OF PASSION AND LOVE! She loves everyone, everything and everybody! Of course this overwhelming amount of adoration for everybody is both the best and worst thing about her. The plus side is she'll be your best friend and do everything to help you out! But the down side is she can be highly over bearing often going way too far to help out. Just got out of the hospital after a car crash? She'll come by every day for the next week to help you out even if you tell her not to! It's pretty much the only time the normally socially aware Andrea displays any kind of denseness. It's another reason why she only has surface friends and a few to no close friends; very few people can tolerate her overbearing "big sister" attitude.
Her general personality could best be described as a mixture of "the responsible big sister" and "tough tomboy" all layered over her inner gentle side. She shows an even more overbearing level of affection towards her younger sibling than she does anybody else which makes "insufferably overbearing" become "suffocatingly overbearing" which is bad news if you're her relative. The difference is she'll actually pay attention to her relatives and tone it down if asked; after all family is very important to Andrea. On the tom boy side of things she is no soft little flower who is shy of getting her hands dirty; in fact she believes getting stuck into something messy is the best way to get to know somebody! Hence how she forms such close bonds with her work colleagues.
History:
history Andrea was the first born daughter of one of the Amazonian queen's bodyguards and as such was born in the ancient city of Themiscyra however the matter of her lineage is a...complicated thing. Once upon a time her father had been a great warrior strong of arm and equally strong of spirit hence what attracted her mother to him in the first place. It was a brief fling but that was all it took for Andrea to be conceived and so many months later she was born into the world crying like all babies do and yes she was very cute. A little pink ball of squishy flesh that cried till she fell asleep.
Skip forward to the age of three and Andrea's younger sister was brought into the world a ball of blond hair and pink flesh who was oh so very adorable. Of course Andrea was not allowed to spend much time with her sister, on account of the fact she was a newborn, but let us skip forward to age five. As on might expect Andrea had started going through the training all young Amazonians went through as well as starting to form a bond with her younger sister of course Andromeda probably doesn't really remember that given her age.
It was also around this time that Andrea's powers began to manifest. Light bulbs would explode, plumping systems would suddenly shut down due to a sudden loss of power and many other electrically systems would suffer odd break downs. It was eventually discovered that was due to Andrea and whatever powers she had but sadly no matter how much she asked her mother about it the young girl never got a satisfactory answer which frustrated her to no end. It was why Andrea began trying to find her father as she wanted to know what exactly she was.
Over the next two years Andrea had, with the help of an adult Amazonian, had been working on a plan to flee the city and find her father who she had already found thanks to the aid of that adult Amazonian. Sadly Andrea was unaware of this adult's ulterior motives in assisting her nor of the price associated with leaving the city. One day Andrea was smuggled out out of Themiscyra and taken to the county of her father: the Philippines. It did not take long for her to find her father's tombstone; In the years between her birth and now Andrea's father had died on account of cancer.
It was at that moment the true motives of the adult that had assisted Andrea became clear: she now refused to assist Andrea return to the city claiming she had always known if an underage Amazonian left they could never return even the daughter of one of the queen's bodyguards. Of course Andrea was hurt and betrayed at this so she tried to force her "partner" to bring her back even using her lighting abilities for the first time in a combat capacity. Sadly her lack of experience in fighting and using her powers meant she ended up defeated and abandoned on the streets of Manila.
With no money, no where to go and no real idea of how to survive Andrea would have probably ended up dying there or something but luckily enough an old friend of her father's arrived to pay his respects. This old friend turned out to be the former coach of Andrea's father and after a brief discussion, in which the usage of Andrea's abilities played an important roll, she managed to convince him she was in fact her father's daughter. Revealing his name to be Arvin he took Andrea in planning to train her and raise her; after all how could he just abandon the daughter of his closet friend?
Over the following years Andrea was trained in the same manner as her father had been. She learned to fight, to use her powers but more importantly it was during this time her personality began to be influenced by the man now raising her. In fact this man was the one responsible for her chosen career path as a florist as he made her care for numerous plants to teach her patience and a gentle touch. Not only that but due to the influence her adoptive parent had on her, and combined with the deceit of the Amazonian that caused her to end up being denied from returning to Themiscyra, Andrea's stance on bullies and tyrants formed into what it is today.
At age eighteen Andrea ventured out into the world by herself eager to continue honing her fighting talents and the unique powers she possessed which, thanks to Arvin, were finally explained to her during the years she spent with him. It turns out her father was in fact a Raijin, the Japanese mythological being, disguised in human form which served as the source of Andrea's powers and her wild hair; it's not something she can help honest. Anyway at age eighteen she left her home, took her father's old boat, converted it into a living space and set off going from country to country as a "dojo destroyer" I believe is the trope. Only nowadays she has decided to visit a school for super powered beings in hopes of finding stronger foes.
Powers and Abilities:
Storm of the Stygian Storm of the Stygian is the self-appointed name Andrea gave to her...unique abilities. It is separated into three different schools centred around outputting electricity, inputting it and the flow of electricity. As such I will lay them out for you accordingly: Flow- Stygian's body: Due to her own physical exercise regime and the fact Andrea is a battery on legs she is strong immensely so. She lacks the super human physique of captain America but is nothing to scoff at. Able to easily run at 44KM/H for very short spans of time while also finding dead-lifting 500kg weights a cake walk....but only if she pushes herself to the extreme. In general, as in what she can maintain for extended periods of time, is top speeds of 35KM/H and dead-lifting 300KG but as with the previous section is mostly dependent on her stamina level.
For Andrea Stamina is dependent upon the normal amount a top athlete could hold and how much electricity she stores. The combination of this allows her to maintain the 35KM/H and 300KG dead lifting for an entire thread alongside her other lighting abilities. However in theory if she had access to an unending source of electricity, such as a generator or the national power grid, she could theoretically maintain the up-most limit of her strength. The next point to make is that her physical abilities, outside of stamina, are currently limited to the human level. Lastly consistent/continuous usage of her up most limits will cause bodily harm ranging from pulled muscles to tearing her limbs off. Input - Absorption: Right now her input abilities are rather lacking only allowing her to absorbing electricity from ANY nearby source of it including lighting. She does not act like a lightning rod, despite her immunity to electricity based attacks, and has to be within a two foot distance from a source of electricity to drain energy from it but provided nobody stops her she can have an endless source of it provided the object she's draining from doesn't run out.
Output
- Zzzzaaaap: Andrea is able to shoot bolts of lighting from ANY part of her body. They have a max range of ten feet but have a variable level of force. She has a "stun" and "kill" mode with different effects. The stun mode can cause temporary full body paralysis, literally only a few moments, and is basically a glorified taser. On the other hand the "kill" setting hurts a lot being equal to touching a house hold electrical cable bare handed; Simply put it is equal to getting zapped with 220v to 240v of electricity. While she can, in theory, indefinitely shoot lightning Andrea's usage of her lightning is limited to how much her body contains and sadly the "kill" bolts can drain her rapidly.
Yaw-Yan A rather fitting style for her to have studied, given her Filipino roots, Andrea's a practitioner of the style known as Yaw Yan. Based upon a combination of Muay Thai and San Shou Yaw Yan is rather similar yet focuses upon kicks more than punches; the ratio of kicks to punches is 70:30 if you're of the curious type. Additionally it is an eight point contact style using fists, feet, knees and elbows to strike the target. Another aspect of the style, and one that works nicely with Andrea's lightning abilities, is the fact they can be delivered from long range. This long range attacking is actually a point the style empathise.
Typical moves of the Yaw-Yan style involve hip torque movements, spinning back fist and the downward nature of the kicks involved rather similar to the scorpion kick in reality. Despite having strong routes in Muay Thai Yaw-Yan focuses significantly less on the clinching found inside the style instead, as I said before, emphasising kicks and long range attacks. One aspect of the style is that it's designed to work with the standard Filipino body and that the kicks are capable of attacking from every angle the Arnis stick can. The reason for that is because the original moves were based upon those of the Arnis stick.
Equipment: Nothing out of the ordinary except a phone and house keys.
