Age: Seventeen.
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Personality: Lucy is very much the troublemaker. Mischievous and curious, she is a free spirit to the end and will make whatever quips and jokes she can fit into a conversation. Gifted with both unending optimism and explosive energy, she can either be irksome or invigorating to talk to and she possesses a quick wit of which equally diverging opinions can be held: to many it makes her too quick to retort and to others it is genuinely amusing and engaging.
When meeting people, Lucy is quick to assume friendship with complete strangers and will often bond rapidly with anyone who shows any sign of liking her. From that point onwards she becomes an almost inseparable companion, whether or not that person wishes to have one or not. Despite her diminutive size, Lucy can be incredibly hot-headed and quick to start a fight with anyone who she thinks deserves it. Thanks to that trait, she has often found herself in situations she really can't handle and with no way of backing out.
Occupation: None.
Skills/Hobbies: The skill which Lucy is most proud of is her ability to dance. Whereas many of her other skills are things she has had to learn, Lucy can just dance and loves doing so whenever a song she knows comes on, usually accompanied by whichever loudly belted lyrics she can remember. She also has a certain ability to insinuate herself into people's trust easily and can lie fairly well, two skills which are doubtlessly helped by the general air of innocence she keeps around herself at all times. Whether this is affected or not is up to debate, of course...
Abilities/Powers: Lucy's main power is teleportation, although this follows some fairly stringent rules. For a start, it is simply a swapping of two areas of spacetime, one of which is always centred over Lucy herself. These shapes are geometric and can extend up to one hundred meters away from Lucy and one may be rotated in relation to another. Relative velocity is maintained during the teleport: teleporting from one moving train onto another is therefore a bad idea. For the most part this process is done unconsciously, although Lucy can control it if she can concentrate and fix her location in her mind.
Lucy's second power is an ability to distort gravity, ranging from tiny point-sources to flips or nullifications of gravity over small areas, roughly eight meters cubed with a somewhat larger area being partially affected by the field. This is very much a conscious power, unlike Lucy's teleportation. Although it can potentially be trained to be automatic, Lucy currently has to control the power and area affected by anomalies she creates, and in order to keep them sustained.
Weaknesses: At the end of the day, Lucy is still a human, teenaged girl: she can't catch bullets, she can't lift cars and she can't read minds. Because of this, she is ill-suited to fighting...anyone, really. Although she can move fast, she can't take hits and she is not particularly skilled or powerful when dealing them out, either. Of course, she currently doesn't know that she has any powers...
In addition, her powers are either out of her control or require a great deal of concentration to manifest. While the former can be useful, her flinch reaction teleporting her away from whatever is causing her to flinch, for example, it is also easily predictable. The latter is more of a problem, however, and could result in serious injuries or even death if it cropped up in a serious combat situation.
Biography: Lucy was born as the second daughter of a middle-class family on the suburbs of London. As a child, she was naturally inquisitive and often ended up in places her parents, ever concerned for the safety of their children, would rather she not go. Despite the stringent watch placed upon her by her family, she would slip away the moment any distraction cropped up and go exploring the world around her.
As she grew up, Lucy's curiosity and slipperiness remained, and were joined by a growing sense of well-natured mischief. Progressing through school, she performed well enough that she was never in danger of falling behind, but was never an excellent student. All that her teachers were ever able to complain about was the occasional pranks which were generally acknowledged to be Lucy's doing, but never proven.
Maturing further, into her teenage years, Lucy's sense of mischief cooled into an underlying, mostly-benign, wickedness. Moving into secondary school was just another change which she took in her stride and she even began doing dance on weekends. Within a few years, she had developed a poise and grace which belied her diminutive frame even as she grew further into the role she had assigned for herself as her year's prankster.
Her world was shattered just after her seventeenth birthday. A H.Y.D.R.A. attack on London, although relatively small scale, killed both of her parents and her sister at the same time and Lucy only managed to avoid the blast by a miracle. Which was odd, since she was certain she'd been right next to her father and the blast had levelled the entire building, but the nurses insisted she'd been found out in the street.
As she was moved into the care of her aunt and uncle she received a small, unadorned package on her doorstep, delivered by a man who left as soon as she opened the door. Unpacking her unexpected delivery, she found an invitation, a set of instructions and a badge. Curiosity piqued, she decided to follow the instructions and see where they lead her...
