Yeah that could be a good way to prevent the main opponents in a given fight from just failing one roll and getting KO'd.

Katarina Yusof, Dochatom
Profiling & Evaluation FileSECURITY LEVEL: Declassified - All Rights Reserved, Team Infinity International ©
NAME: Katarina Yusof
ALIAS: Dochatoma, or Atom's Daughter
ALLEGIANCE: Gen NEXT
OCCUPATION: Superhero
APPEARANCE:
GENDER: Female
AGE: 23
BUILD: 6'2", 160 lbs
POWERS: Katarina's powers are unusual, though very familiar to those who have watched the Superhero world develop over time. First of her powers is an ability that Katarina calls Fusion Blasts. By manipulating her innate radiation, Katarina is able to fire blasts of radiation similar to a laser that explode upon impact. The resulting explosion is usually the size of that of a frag grenade. Katarina also possesses super strength and durability that allows her to lift objects up to 5 tons and casually tank projectiles from most civilian grade firearms, as well as letting her burst through non reinforced walls and such. She is also able to fly up to 60 mph, but this requires concentration on her part. Finally, Katarina is immune to all forms of radiation, in fact she lives on the stuff and needs it to survive.
The weakenesses with Katarina's powers come from multiple angles. The first is that she is radioactive. Without wearing lead-lined clothes and/or armor that essentially negates her strength, she cannot spend extended periods of time around normal humans, as she will kill them. Secondly, because she lives off of radiation, she requires some form of fuel to keep her going if she is cut off from her natural source, the sun. More than a day in darkness will do severe damage to her and two days may be enough to kill her if she isn't given something to fuel her body. Finally, while Katarina is flying, it is near impossible for her to access her blast power.
EQUIPMENT: Makarov pistol and her NSA uniform
STRENGTH: 14
DEXTERITY:12
HEALTH:12
INTELLIGENCE:10
PERSONALITY: Katarina is a quiet woman, who mainly just wants to do some good after spending so much of her life doing bad. She's a little scared of her own power, as well as held back by her own personal beliefs that she won't live up to the legacy of her mentor Sergei. She has also begun to experience amnesia about her life before gaining her powers, which in turn has begun to dull her emotions, which also scares her. In short, she is a very timid woman, but her heart is in the right place.
BIOGRAPHY: Like many Gen-4 Heroes, Katarina's legend starts long before she was born. In fact, her story starts before her country was born. In 1920, a boy was born in the city still called Petrograd. Nothing is known of the boy's childhood, or his youth. Even his birth name has been lost to time. What is known begins in the closing days of the Great Patriotic War. The boy had become a man, and after fighting his way through Europe, he had been reassigned for the upcoming war against Japan. What happened in the intervening months can only be speculated, but scientists believe that proximity to the background radiation unleashed by the Atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki activated the young man's M-gene, granting him extraordinary powers. Though in those days it was limited simply to creating radioactive fire and flight, he became the first of the Soviet's great meta arsenal.
Given the name Sergei as his superhero name to promote the commonality of man in the union, he was known by the people as the "Son of the Atom." Unlike other Meta's, who at the time seemed somewhat limited in their powerset and strength, Sergei's power continued to grow exponentially as he became more proficient in using his blasts, flight, and began to exhibit super strength and durability. No one could hurt him now, which also meant no one could control him. When the Premier demanded his presence in 1951, Sergei complied. But when the Premier requested that Sergei lead the charge in an attack on Europe, believing that a Metahuman army could defeat the unorganized west before they could resist, Sergei refused. He had seen the horrors of war, and what his country could do even in a short scale of time, and though he cared deep for his people, he also cared deeply for the other people of Earth. He denounced the Premier and rocketed out of his office, never to be controlled again.
For the next seventy years, Sergei served as a silent protector of his Motherland. If terrorists would strike, he would stop them. If the government tried to hurt the common people, he would also stop them. As the years went on, the Son of the Atom never seemed to age, and he only grew stronger. Though the Soviet Union eventually collapsed under it's own weight, Sergei continued in his role, defending the Russian people through the late 90s and into the 2000s. The 2010s brought his greatest challenge yet. Under a second generation meta known only as "Sickle", a terrorist organization known as the "New Soviet Army" had slowly grown in southern Russia and Ukraine. This organization had been around for years but had never really landed on Sergei's radar. However, during the 2010s they began large scale assaults across the southern country side, including a rather ambitious bombing on Sergei's home city, Petrograd. Thus began "Sergei's War", a long war between the NSA and the Son of the Atom that lasted until 2018. The nuclear man pinned the NSA down in the town of Borisovka, Sergei used his powers to evecuate the citizenry of the small city before expelling part of his atomic energy, detonating a nuclear explosion.
Sergei had thought that he would wipe out the NSA with that blast. To his great shock, he found a very scared young woman uninjured close to the epicenter. Power recognizes power, and Sergei realized the young woman, who introduced herself as Katarina, was cursed with a very similar gift to him. Katarina had been born to Sickle and another NSA soldier shortly after the fall of the union, and much to the dismay of her father, she had never demonstrated Meta powers up until this point. Katarina had lived a rough childhood, forced to be a soldier since the age of six, beaten when she disobeyed, always threatened with being shot, being forced to watch her mother shot. She blamed herself for the evil she had been forced to do. She was scared of the world, and she was very confused about how she could still be alive. Sergei pitied the young woman, and took her under his wing.
Since then, Katarina has been mentored by Sergei, fighting by his side in a modified version of her NSA uniform. Though her power set was not the exact same as the nuclear man's, for example her reliance on radiation vs. Sergei's total freedom from food, water and even air, their powers were close enough for many to believe she was Sergei's daughter. Her powers began to demonstrate even a similar pattern of growth to Sergei's. After two years of mentoring under the Nuclear Man, Katarina recieved an offer to appear on an American teleivision show starring Metas. When Sergei acknowledged it would be good for her to learn from other people than himself, Katarina accepted the offer, and soon flew to America to take it up.

Zoroșiia Valentina "Zora" Lăzărescu
Profiling & Evaluation FileSECURITY LEVEL: Declassified - All Rights Reserved, Team Infinity International ©
Қазақ Әуе Қорғаныс Күштері Күштерінен Жазбаларды Аудару
NAME: Zoroșiia Valentina Lăzărescu(Зорошиа Валентина Лэзэреску)
ALIAS: Operațiune Soaresca(1977), 554 Пре-Динамика(31.7.1980), Red Star(As of 2019)
ALLEGIANCE: Generation NEXT
OCCUPATION: Superhero(On Probation), Reusable Nuclear Weapon(formerly)
APPEARANCE:
GENDER: F
AGE: Born in 1963, mentally & physically 17
BUILD: Zoroșiia stands at 171cm(5’7), and weighs 61.6kg(136lbs). Her hair colour correlates with her form, meaning that by default it is a luminescent scarlet with a few black streaks.
POWERS:
Zoroșiia is, put quite plainly, a human star. Gravity, heat, electromagnetism, and solar wind all emanate from her. Just like the real thing.Light: Like a real star, Zoroșiia glows. Her skin has a shine to it, and her hair glows. In her base form(Officially referred to as Pitică Roșie), her skin shines only faintly, with the most noticeable of it being a constant blush about her. Her hair, meanwhile, glows with the luminosity of an incandescent light bulb, and reaches a maximum temperature of around 50 celsius[122 Fahrenheit]. Her Red Giant form glows with luminosity comparable to that of a flood light, and radiates local temperatures of 300 celsius[572 Fahrenheit]. As she ascends through her forms, her skin and hair begin to glow brighter, with her maximum Blue Hypergiant form reaching blinding luminosities high enough to light up multiple football stadia while her body and hair exude local temperatures in the thousands of Celsius—hot enough to melt all but the most resistant elements in her close vicinity.
Gravitational Field: Zoroșiia can generate a gravitational field around her which functionally emulates radial telekinesis in many ways. Objects that she chooses will orbit around her when within a certain range, which varies based on her size and form.
Levitation: Zoroșiia can passively levitate up to a few centimetres off of the ground—a trait mostly useful for not leaving scorch marks on the ground at higher temperatures.
Magnetic Field: Zoroșiia’s magnetic field is naturally very weak, similar to that of a fridge magnet. By spinning, her field can drastically increase, able to scramble electronics in close range like an electromagnet. Her form likewise influences the strength of her magnetic field.
Size Variation: Zoroșiia’s base height is [5'9"], but can drastically vary. At her smallest, in her Brown Dwarf form, she is barely [4'7"], while as a hypergiant, she stands at an immense [17']. In her Red Giant form, she stands at [10’].
Solar Wind: Zoroșiia produces a faint 'wind' of charged particles, which essentially means that those in her vicinity will experience similar levels of UV radiation to that of a sunny day at the beach. When her heat grows more intense, her 'wind' follows suit, at its most powerful becoming positively deadly. Of course, when she's in a form where her 'wind' is dangerous, being around her is simply dangerous on account of the sheer heat anyway. She can also intentionally augment her solar wind into a solar flare, which she may generate by whipping her hand through her hair in the direction she wishes to send it, sending a small arc of fire and UV radiation in that direction. Power levels of solar flares may vary, in part based on her size, but generally range from a candle flame to that of a kitchen stove.
Post-AGB: In her Red Giant form, Zoroșiia has the capacity to go into the Post-AGB stage, igniting herself, and letting out a 0.5t blast of energy. She is left in her exotic White Dwarf state, wherein she is physically juvenile.
Supernova: Objectively her most powerful ability, Zoroșiia can go supernova when in her hypergiant and supergiant forms. Doing so delivers an explosion on nuclear scales, and leaves her in bizarre weakened forms and may change her future appearance during the process of exploding. Her normal yield rarely went above 20kt in payload, and left her in an infantile neutron star form. She remained mentally the same in some of her residual forms, although temporary hormonal-balance changes still sometimes occurred. If she goes past the point where she is placed back into her volatile neutron-star state(~100kt), she ends up in her functionally non-sentient black hole form, and may not return to a humanoid state for significant periods of time, eventually reforming as a neutron-star, wherein it appears that she would hypothetically take approximately a month for her to reform. This occurrence has only been recorded once.
The silver bullet for Zoroșiia is food. Even in smaller forms, she needs immense amounts of food. In her Red Dwarf form alone, she eats 5 full meals each day. As a blue hypergiant, she needs enough food to feed a family. Failure to eat enough and keep herself fueled will send her through the stages of star death, making skipping meals potentially highly dangerous. This condition is only applicable in her natural forms, as her exotic post-supernova forms function anomalously, especially her black hole form.
EQUIPMENT: AK-74(Formerly). All of her clothes are specially treated to be heat-resistant in the extreme, for practical & PR purposes.

NAME: Kong Paing
ALIAS: Martial Law
ALLEGIANCE: Generation NEXT, Bodhisattva Gym
OCCUPATION: Superhero, martial arts instructor
APPEARANCE:
GENDER: Male
AGE: 21
BUILD: 6'0, 205 lbs
POWERS:
-Healing factor: One of Kong's most important abilities is his healing factor, which allows him to heal from most non fatal wounds, with concentration, in as little as thirty seconds, and from more serious wounds in as most as twenty-four hours. However, repeated and consistent damage will overwhelm his ability to heal.
-Muscle density and bone hardness: The M gene has given Kong a unique form of myostatin-related muscle hypertrophy. He has a superhumanly tough and dense musculature, which allows him to withstand abnormal amounts of damage and resist being rendered unconscious.
-Superhuman reflexes: The M Gene has influenced Kong's nervous system, allowing his body to respond to his brain's electrical impulses much faster than a normal human, giving him uncanny reaction speed.
-Explosive speed: By far Kong's most powerful ability is his speed, which allows him to accelerate any part of his body to nearly seventy-five miles per hour in as little as four seconds, and to do so with relative ease.
Superhuman acrobatics: Kong's mutant athleticism and brutal training regimen have given him incredible balance and physical grace. He channels his inherent acrobatic talent into parkour, which combined with his speed allows him to scale the three dimensional landscape of cities and indoor environments with quickness and ease.
The Naraka Vijnana: A unique form born of Kong's M gene and his brutal martial arts training, the Naraka Vijnana (literally: Hell-residing Consciousness) boosts his strength and endurance at great cost to his physical health. When Kong's healing factor is overwhelmed by repeated damage, the body completely shuts down all healing capacity and floods his body with inhuman levels of adrenaline. This temporarily gives Kong hysterical strength in considerable excess of his normal capacity. The Naraka Vijnana also allows Kong to ignore pain by flooding his body with opiods (particularly endorphins).
However, in addition to completely shutting down Kong's healing capacity, the form does progressively more damage to his body the longer it's used, including blood vessel damage and cerebral hemorrhaging from extreme blood pressure, visual and auditory hallucinations induced by hormonal blood poisoning, damage to cartilage, ligaments, tendons, and muscle tissue from using strength beyond normal capacity, and eventually general organ failure from ignoring injuries and general trauma. Additionally, the form can only be used for a maximum of thirteen minutes, beyond which he's rendered unconscious and near comatose for at least twenty-four hours, and any life threatening wounds will require medical treatment and stabilization until his healing factor can reactivate.
The Naraka Vijnana is also visible form that visibly reddens the skin, with it slowly turning a deep purple the longer it's used, as well as causing the muscles to temporarily swell and full body vascularity, the latter of which causing the blood vessels in the eyes to burst and bleed.
EQUIPMENT:
-A long tungsten knife
-White and red racing suit made of a special frictionless material and lined with a series of lightweight, overlapping bullet resistant armor plates over much of the body. The suit enables Kong to shrug off most small arms fire, though it doesn't cover 100% of his body and he is still susceptible. The gloves and boots each contain a retractable, lockable pair of tungsten claws resembling a bagh nakh. The racing helmet is made of a titanium alloy that makes it resistant to small arms fire and up to a thousand pounds of crushing force, as well as a fully tinted visor capable of infrared sight
-Twin nickel-plated Uzi submachine guns
-A bulletproof 1970 Ferrari Modulo, modified with a quad-turbocharged W16 Bugatti engine.
STRENGTH: 11 (14 when using the Naraka Vijnana)
DEXTERITY: 15
HEALTH: 14 (11 when using the Naraka Vijnana)
INTELLIGENCE: 10 (9 when using the Naraka Vijnana)
PERSONALITY: Kong is an outwardly very friendly and jovial person, reserved but radiating a personal warmth. He always endeavors to be nice. This translates into his public persona, in which he plays the archetype of the outstanding moral superhero. Inwardly, Kong is a deeply conflicted and angry person. Though he believes that superheroes have a moral duty to fight for justice, his newfound power and fame has made it increasingly difficult to empathize with the plights of normal humans. Though his public persona is meant to be a moral paragon, Kong is also well known in the press for his love of drinking, drugs, and partying. He is also immensely proud of his Burmese heritage and his status as a martial artist, and is easily angered by insults to either.
BIOGRAPHY: Born the eldest of nine children in rural Myanmar, Kong spent his early years helping his grandparents weave baskets and make trinkets to sell in the city, and upon adolescence spent his days in between long shifts at the cement factory and evenings enduring grueling training in Myanmar's national martial art: lethwei. Kong was always unusually athletic and took to the sport naturally, beating everyone in his region by age ten.
From an early age Kong learned to resent superheroes, who in his country acted as armed thugs for the military junta, routinely and brutally disappearing people suspected of dissent. In the aftermath of the 2011 unrest and subsequent democratic revolution, many of the most brutal "heroes" serving the government were cut loose. Many turned to freelance work or outright villainy, oftentimes acting as hired muscle for militias or organized crime outfits. Everyone had a story about a cousin or an uncle who'd been "detained" and disappeared by some masked terror.
In 2014, Kong was tending to his family's pigs when his village was approached by members of the Shan Syndicate, a brutal organized crime outfit made up of militants formally associated with the military junta and including several heroes-turned-villains. They told the farmers there that they would no longer be growing food to survive, but would instead be growing poppies for the production of opium by Shan. At first they refused, but the Shan men soon turned to committing atrocities to convince them. Many of the village's men were bound in tires and burned alive, women violated and children thrown atop bayonets. The ones that tried to flee into the jungle were shot in their tracks or mercilessly hunted by dogs. The survivors were quickly beaten into line.
Running through the jungle, Kong felt an immense pain strike him in his side. Blood poured profusely from a fresh gunshot, his whole body growing extremely heavy and a loud fuzz buzzing in his head. The barking of the dogs and the shouting of men came ever closer. Knowing in his heart that he was going to die but refusing to accept it, young Kong dragged himself along. Another gunshot struck him, but this time something felt different. Kong's body felt lighter, his mind clearer. Casting bloodshot eyes out to the jungle, the men and their dogs seemed like they were running in slow motion. It was there that his metahuman gene first activated. With the gunshots healing and his strength back to him, Kong managed to defeat his jungle tormentors, and his newfound superpowers soon carried him back to his village. There he utilized his incredible speed to inflict terror on the Shan men, killing or wounding many of them over a several day period of hit-and-run attacks. Before long the Shan Syndicate cut their losses and escaped, but not before setting the remaining buildings on fire with the people still in them.
With much of his family dead, the farm ruined, and now with powerful enemies, the Paing family was forced to leave the lands their ancestors had farmed for a hundred generations. At first they lived in Thailand, most of the family begging while Kong utilized his powers and talent for lethwei to earn money in the local combat sports circuit. In 2017, when Kong was 18 years old, he became an internet sensation overnight when he knocked out Thailand's heavyweight muay thai champion in just ten seconds. He was soon recruited to serve as a hero on behalf of the Thai government and did so gladly, quickly establishing a reputation as a humble warrior. In 2018, he was rocked by scandal when rumors of Kong's escapades, including rampant drug use and drunk driving, forced his resignation as a hero.
"Sad Kong", referring to a photo of the man sitting glumly on a park bench, soon went viral, leading to a job offer as a martial arts instructor at the Boddhisattva Gym in Los Angeles. Since then he has juggled between teaching at the gym and moonlighting as the hero Martial Law, the latter of which netted him an opportunity to join Generation NEXT. He's also become an intense fan of racing.

May want to tone his ability to regenerate down slightly by increasing the time taken to heal.
Main issues are with the bio. Meteor strike seems... Overly convoluted if I'm being honest but could easily be substituted just for Shan militants seizing the place to grow opium rather than a corporation trying to buy land for a meteorite which wouldn't even be that valuable. Otherwise everything seems fine enough once things have been edited.

Eli Chase
Profiling & Evaluation FileSECURITY LEVEL: Declassified - All Rights Reserved, Team Infinity International ©
NAME: Eli Chase
ALIAS: Beatdrop
ALLEGIANCE: Generation Next
OCCUPATION: Superhero, DJ, Songwriter.
APPEARANCE:
GENDER: Male
AGE: 19
BUILD: 5’10”, 156 lbs
POWERS: Eli’s powerset is based mainly on sound manipulation and weaponization, creating concussive blasts made from noise alone or acting as a walking radar. His sense of hearing is heightened, allowing him to hear sounds far easier than others, including those which frequencies cannot be heard by typical ears. This does create the issue of avoiding loud noises, and can only tolerate things at a whisper level when his ears are unprotected. His vocal cords are also enhanced to a level where his own voice is a weapon and has issues controlling its volume, so he uses a modified cochlear implant to operate a voice module, allowing him to communicate without risking hearing damage to himself and others. His NOISE Rig gives him most of his offensive abilities as well as a few defensive ones, such as a sonic pulse that gives Eli a rudimentary radar. His offensive abilities are based more on his Bass Cannon Array, which usually set to one of two modes, Legato or Staccato. Legato is the short ranged mode, which makes the Array let off a continuous bass-filled cacophony at a max range of 20 feet, though the effective range is more around 15, where at that point the vibrations lose their kick. Staccato is the inverse, and instead charges up noise and fires visible waves of sound. Where Legato relies on bass to overwhelm an opponent, Staccato beats them with an eardrum-shattering level of noise concentrated between the rings of sound. Staccato has a range of close to 100 feet to where it can be heard, but to hear it at a level to present a danger is normally around 50 feet. This does not come without drawbacks, as friendly fire is very easy with these weapons, as noise is naturally indiscriminate, and sufficient ear protection can negate Staccato's soundwaves. Excessive electrical power can not only overload the NOISE Rig’s systems, but also affect his cochlear implant to send it into a self destructive feedback loop, while the inherent destructivity makes it difficult to use in an urban environment without the risk of civilian injuries. It is also worth noting that in the event that his headphones either fail or are removed from his person, Eli will be quickly overwhelmed by the noise around him and be reduced to a whimpering mess on the floor.
EQUIPMENT: The Neural Operated Intensive Sound Equipment & Rigging, often called a NOISE Rig, makes up the majority of Eli’s equipment. Made by a team of engineers funded by Eli’s musical profits, it is best described as a portable sound system that is linked to his cochlear implant, allowing him to create his music from thought alone. It’s this rig that gives Eli his destructive and tactical capabilities, especially the attached Bass Cannon, a shoulder mounted array that focuses the sound he creates. The arguably most important piece of equipment for both day to day life and in combat is the Diminuendo Headset, a pair of noise cancelling earbuds that reduces sound to a level that Eli can tolerate, as well as amplify ultrasound and infrasound at his discretion, giving him an ability to echolocate.
STRENGTH: 9
DEXTERITY: 14
HEALTH: 10
INTELLIGENCE: 12
PERSONALITY: Eli can be described as a very happy go lucky person, with a general love for music. Despite this, he tends to present a lethargic go-with-the-flow disposition, taking obstacles as they come with a casualty that some may consider lazy or apathetic. Despite the widespread technology present with his generation, Eli has almost no social media accounts and equally as little presence on social media outside some clout in the music industry. This lack of stress in his online reputation makes him have a sense of humility and the ability to be genuine in his speech. As expected, Eli will become irritable when subjected to noise without the assistance of his headphones, which are always on his person and jealously guarded by him.
BIOGRAPHY: Born as a selective breeding experiment between his father, who had an excellent sense of hearing and the ability to release bolts of sound from speaking, and his mother, who had the power to harness resonant frequencies at a distance to shake things apart, Eli nearly shook down the hospital he was born in simply because of crying, and for a time because of this, could not hear for nearly a decade because he burst his own eardrums, not to mention those of everyone in the room and those around it. Thus, the first ever surgery he undertook was to have his larynx removed for the safety of those around him. Because of this and because he screamed himself to being deaf, he only talked in sign language. It was clear that he had the M gene, and the experiment had worked, but until he could manage it, his parents swore to keep his powers negated through his self-inflicted disabilities.
When he was 13, his parents decided to test and see if he could go around with his powers off their proverbial leash, and so had him scheduled with a healer to restore his ability to speak and hear. It did not go well, not that it wasn’t a success, but because he was deaf for so long, everyone thought that he’d just have normal hearing. They were wrong, he still had his father’s hearing capabilities, except greater, so it caused him a great deal of pain and quite a bit in medical bills for the second screaming incident, though this time his eardrums were intact. Ultimately, he was to be given the Diminuendo Headset, and from then on his hearing wasn’t a problem, provided he keep them on all the time like he was supposed to. After that, life was kind of a breeze, especially when Eli picked up and took off with his hobby and future career; music. At first it was just listening to the popular songs, then older classics, then the classicals. It wouldn’t take long until he himself was writing and playing music, becoming quite popular in the indie community.
Seeing this and the potential profit, his parents put him with a record label, and his songs started showing up on the market. His songs, as well as live performances at concerts, earned him enough money to get his show on the road, so to speak. Commissioning a team of engineers, Eli had his NOISE Rig built and started a tour across the United States, applying to Generation NEXT in the meantime, and as soon as he got the acceptance notice, cut his tour short to start as soon as he can.

Can we get a bit more information on the range, power, and general scale of the power? Doesn't have to be amazingly specific, but a bit more beyond that he can just do it when it comes to his attacks.

Alexandra Sindelic
Profiling & Evaluation FileSECURITY LEVEL: Declassified - All Rights Reserved, Team Infinity International ©
NAME: Alexandra 'Allie' Sindelic
ALIAS: N/A
ALLEGIANCE: Team Wave
OCCUPATION: Superhero / Singer / Actress
APPEARANCE:
GENDER: Female
AGE: 18
BUILD: 5'8", 137 lbs
POWERS: Allie has a high degree of control over fire and is able to create fires from nothing, as well as wield pyrokinesis and manipulate these flames once they appear. Her body is immune to the effects of heat and fire and she's capable of casting fire in multiple forms which range from fireball to straight jet stream. Typically, the range of which she can control fire is within fifty meters of herself with the ability weakening as it gets closer to the outer radius of her power. Additionally, the fire isn't exactly an unavoidable attack... It isn't very fast moving typically. In addition to being able to create fire, Allie can also control flames which happen naturally within the environment, and can extinguish fire.
EQUIPMENT: Allie is experienced in fighting with pistols but her preferred one is the Glock G22 - much of the time, she keeps one of these and one Glock 17.
STRENGTH: 10
DEXTERITY: 13
HEALTH: 11
INTELLIGENCE: 13
PERSONALITY: Allie could be described as a force of nature - a mix of bad circumstances forced her to adapt or fail, and she adapted rather than facing the consequences that would come from failure. She has well developed social skills which are a result of extensive training, but under the surface lies a more unstable personality that lives emotionally, and a girl who rides a spectrum of emotions ranging from sadness to anger to euphoria. This is usually masked somewhat for the sake of not compromising her public status. In front of cameras and around the right people, Allie may appear to be composed and elegant, but those who truly know her will realize that she's changed little from being a girl of the streets who lives for the next day and treats every event as something important to be taken seriously. It's also important to note that Allie, above most things, is seeking something better for herself - thrills, pleasures, and the like are things that are welcome to her, and elicit some of the strongest feelings from the spectrum of emotions that she often displays.
BIOGRAPHY: The girl known now as 'Allie' was born as Alexandra Sindelic, from Belgrade... The place where her family ended up when two generations of it were ousted from the Bosnian borderlands by the destruction of the Bosnian War, a conflict which would have a deep effect on Allie despite her not being alive to witness it when it happened. Her country wasn't the victorious one that survived to achieve its goals, but the loser which was vilified internationally and bombed into submission by a coalition of countries which it couldn't possibly compete with. It didn't matter that both of her parents had lost most of what they had to the conflict and the other side - they were the losers, and few would listen to their plight. That, Allie had learned, was the reason why she came from almost nothing. And the conditions didn't exactly help her budding family. Wasn't that long before fighting between her parents saw her mother drive off her father, taking her and her two siblings for herself. Soon enough, they departed for Rotterdam in search of greater wealth, although that was mostly her mother's idea.
Because Allie cared about where she came from, even if she was too young to know all that much about what was going on and wouldn't appreciate it that much until the future when she could understand better.
Regardless, the Sindelic family entered Rotterdam and immigrated successfully, but life in the new place wasn't that much easier - just because they had moved there didn't mean they were just going to inherit the wealth of the Dutch automatically, and Allie's mother was never the best when it came to managing money and the like. Government cash was squandered by her mother, the siblings continued to live in poverty, and nothing here was easier for Allie... In some ways, it was harder. In the future, most people would assume that Allie comes from a calm upbringing, but that couldn't be further from the truth. She clashed with others from the Balkans who had moved to the Netherlands, getting into street fights with Kosovars and Bosnians over the land that they had fled, and hustling on the streets to help make ends meet and look out for her siblings. It's ironic. Allie would go on to become a hero, but much of her youth was spent scamming and staging petty robberies and the like to ensure that her siblings would have more to live off than what their mother could provide.
She picked up a bit of infamy in these streets but she didn't do anything that would get her name out there, and her powers hadn't developed fully at this point - Allie was in the streets after all, since middle school. Unlike some who wait until later to get out and experience the world, Allie had few options. The only difference between her middle school and high school life is that in high school, her hustling grew more intense and dangerous - robbing tourists and locals alike at knfiepoint or jacking cars at gunpoint rather than simply roaming the streets and pickpocketing when possible. These were some of the things she did during the day, while at night during high school she often ran with a gang of criminals and cut up stolen cars at a hidden away chop shop that then exported them to eastern Europe, South America, and other such locations. Fortunately for her now, her face didn't get out too much during this. But there were plenty of rumors of an aggressive female robber who had taken purses and cars alike.
It was during this period that Allie found her first love, and despite it confusing her emotions, it would be another girl - as if to make things even stranger, it would be an American girl, from the country that had helped in destroying the one of Allie's parents during the Yugoslav Wars and the Kosovo War after that. She had seen American soldiers before in Bosnia, and had never been happy about it. And yet, Allie loved Logan Collins, who happened to be another metahuman... But it wasn't meant to last. She'd find herself a heartbroken 17 year old when Logan left with no goodbye and no warning, returning to her home country because she had gotten some offer from Team Infinity to join some youth program of theirs back in the United States. Ever since then, Allie trusted no one. And ever since then, Allie has never loved another girl. Her young and unstable self contemplated ending it all over such a thing and leaving behind her existence of having to hustle and commit crimes just to get ahead, but she quickly remembered that if she did that, her brother and sister would have no one to eventually rescue them from their own upbringing. So, a shell of herself, Allie put on a confident face and continued, vowing to get rich and help them.
Organized crime would have likely been in her future but her power threw that off because as it developed and she gained control of it, it became clear that it could be a ticket out. Wheras she would have preferred to use it to dominate street fights and to continue her criminal career, her mother had other ideas - she sent her to a private school in London for those with metahuman powers, one which was a pipeline for creating superheroes. That wasn't the only thing she did, however. Allie's mother was intent to make her a celebrity by any means necessary, and the powers were just one way of helping that. Taking advantage of the greater options available to someone with powers, who was potentially worth investing in early for some of the people within the entertainment industry, she enrolled Allie in a number of classes for things ranging from her social behavior to skills such as singing and acting. She would be a triple threat hero who wasn't just famous because of her powers and work in the field.
At the same time, Allie watched as her younger sister and brother were sent to similar schools in Germany. Far away from herself, where she couldn't have an influence on them anymore. Supposedly, her independent and somewhat rebellious nature meant she was bad to have around them, and the threat was implicit. If she rebelled against the training, it would simply be passed along to them instead. At least one of the kids would become a celebrity, and for now, the pressure was on her. Didn't mean it would stay that way. So Allie kept her head down and grinded away at the work she had been given, accepting that she had little free time while mastering her powers as much as she could and getting good at the singing and acting too.
She became a star as a young hero in London and her music career kicked off too, with people perhaps amazed that someone in high school was able to do both things as efficiently as she could. The whole time, her mother acted as her manager, putting the right people around her and beginning to pay off the expenses she'd incurred with all of this now that Allie had some money coming in from her recording deal with Sony. Little did she know, however, that Allie was more rebellious than she could assume - and that Allie was planning to go along with itself and become as big a star as possible before breaking away once her siblings are old enough to move in with her, far away from their mother and far away from Germany and Team Infinity, which Allie views as too restrictive. That made the new Team Wave a perfect destination for Allie, and after some fighting with her mother, she succeeded in making the move there, joining the team on its inception...
Now, the challenge has shifted to getting away towards turning the tables once and for all.

Iris Cox
Profiling & Evaluation FileSECURITY LEVEL: Declassified - All Rights Reserved, Team Infinity International ©
NAME: Iris Cox
ALIAS: Phase
ALLEGIANCE: Generation NEXT, Team Infinity
OCCUPATION: Superhero / Model / Actress
APPEARANCE:
GENDER: Female
AGE: 18
BUILD: 5'10", 155lbs
POWERS:
Intangibility: Iris can vibrate her molecules in tune to a quantum frequency that enables her to phase her body's particles through solids. Phasing through an object requires an initial touch to attune herself and anything on her body to that specific solid first before focusing her vibrations through said object. These brief seconds of concentration mean she phases one solid at a time. She can remain phased through an object for up to half a hour before her body reverts to its original molecular state.
Intangibility Sharing: Iris can extend her intangible form to other objects and even persons by manner of touch. She's limited in how much matter she can make intangible with her with only one other person being able to share her power and said person must also be of a roughly comparable size to her as well. She can make intangible multiple smaller objects but she must focus her power on each one, meaning that the more objects not on her body that she's carrying, the more seconds it'll take.
Physical Disruption: By phasing into objects, she can cause incredible damage to the internal structures of the objects when she materializes within them. This is especially deadly to living beings, even potentially fatal. Iris must be careful however because if she phases and materializes within an internal structure that can harm her flesh like materializing within in a paper shredder, she'd hurt herself on the blades inside.
Levitation: Manipulating her molecules to the such an extent that she can float upward and hover above ground, Iris can levitate around an area for up to half a hour before her molecules begin to reassert themselves back to normal. Her movement is slow at the pace of a brisk walk without thrust so she cannot easily evade projectiles aimed her way.
EQUIPMENT: She has a Glock 43 which she's been trained to wield for self-defense purposes plus a concealable taser for obvious purposes.
STRENGTH: 12
DEXTERITY: 10
HEALTH: 12
INTELLIGENCE: 12
PERSONALITY: Its never personal with Iris. At least, that's how she likes it to be, reasons irrelevant. Sexy and demure. Bubbly and bright. As stoic as stone. She comes off how she's supposed to come off to those around her. Privacy? Iris ain't a staunch follower. Cameras are everywhere in her world and she's been in front of a lens for years. Behind the facade, Iris is quite a straightforward girl to understand. She's got needs like everyone else. And she's only just discovered them.
BIOGRAPHY:
Her official bio has been tailored and trimmed so many times it's become a far-cry from the actual series of events leading up to her contract with Team Infinity. A few scrapes with the grim reaper, a sprinkle of romance and a overdose of drama and tragedy to really flesh out her rising to answer the call of heroism. Those ghost-writers are nothing if creative.
Memories can be fickle things, prone to the wither of time and age. But Iris's are a vivid collage.
Chubby little hands picking a bouquet for her mother under the warmth of a smiling star. Clutching the dress of that same beautiful brunette woman as she slowly opened a creaking door to introduce her to a whole bunch of little people like herself. Dangling her legs over the balcony of elementary school, lollipop nestled between lips that would blossom to lushness in high school.
Of course there were tears. But they weren't hers, not at first anyways. Her family needed money and they needed it quick. Iris's looks inevitably became as much of an asset as they were a gift. She was to be a good girl like she'd always had been and do as Mommy and Daddy told her to do. She was good at being good. Grades good. Dress good. Smile good. The camera liked the latter alot. That and her powers. The camera loved the powers. Perhaps not for the same reasons as she loved them but that was just how things are in the industry. It was never about her. By the time she graduated high school, she'd mastered a dozen ways a woman can walk and more.
She found love. She lost love. Friends came and went. The things that didn't leave her became her items of solace in an increasingly hectic life full of strict schedules and strangers. A model who could act was a money maker. A model who could act with powers of her own was even better.
Getting a Team Infinity contract? Becoming a hero? Everyone had expected her to don a costume and saunter around, curves on display, cape trailing behind her. She'd lived under those expectations, working to fulfill what they wanted her to be like. Smart? Sexy? Sassy? She could change herself for her fans and she would because she was expected to. Her fans were as much a family as her family were her fans. That was how things were supposed to be for those under the limelight.
But that acceptance never really translated to something more. No, not for Iris it didn't. Debts paid, fame gained, boys laid, she'd had her taste of the life people wanted for her. She'd had her fill.
Its time for something fresh and she's already had a sample...Who knew she'd like the taste of another pair of lush lips?

Maël Mercier
Profiling & Evaluation FileSECURITY LEVEL: Declassified - All Rights Reserved, Team Infinity International ©
NAME: Maël Mercier
ALIAS: Whisper
ALLEGIANCE:
OCCUPATION: Independent mercenary/investigator
APPEARANCE:
GENDER: Male
AGE: 29
BUILD: 185.4 cm (6'1 ft) and 81.6 kg (180 lbs)
POWERS:Memory Manipulation:: Maël can control his memories and others, allowing him to modify, fabricate, suppress, influence, repair, restore, erase, detect, and view them. He can change memories to confuse, wipe away certain memories to cause amnesia, discern and provoke nostalgia, and enter the victim into a psychic vision, replaying their memory. It's noted that Maël cannot do this without touching a person and cannot maintain control for a long duration, typically a session lasting at most thirty minutes.
Sensory Scrying:: Maël can "hitch-hike" other peoples' senses and experience what happens as if he was them. This power grants him with the ability to taste, feel, smell, see and/or hear from others senses. It allows him to experience the world as his target would. Unfortunately, this is limited solely to one target at a time and only after he has touched their memories. The ability to scry through someone's senses is also temporary, lasting around a half hour before fading away. He can also experience everything they do, including pain. If the damage is serious enough, it can be transferred to Maël.
Retrocognition:: Maël can discern past events by coming in to contact with certain inanimate objects. These events are usually tied to trauma or violence of some kind and he can only 'see' things going back a few years. While seeing the past, Maël enters a trance like state and is entirely susceptible to attack during this time. The effect is also involuntary. To keep this from randomly happening, Maël is in the habit of wearing gloves at all times.
Omnilingualism:: Maël can speak, write, understand and communicate in any language, including computer codes, in languages he has never been heard before, sign language (even lip-reading), illegible words, and backwards speech and writing with little or no training. It's limited on his ability to replicate the form of communication. If the verbal language involves, say, sounds beyond the his hearing, he isn't able to understand it.
Lie Detection::Maël can detect lies being told to him, usually as a tingling along the spine. He cannot differentiate between a white lie or a secret, doesn't work against metahumans whose power is mentally based, cannot detect the reason behind the lie, and doesn't work against impaired targets.While not necessarily a power, Maël's brutal training with the COS and his combat experience in almost every conceivable environment, has made him one of the top mercenary operators in the world, able to react to conflict with a machine like grace and skill. However, his almost obsessive desire to remain out of the spotlight, means only those in the know would be aware of his existence. And damned few of those are willing to talk about the man known as Whisper.
EQUIPMENT: AZM Field Match loaded with hollow jacket 45. Keeps it in a shoulder holster under his jacket. A pair of BBros Model 2022 .380 ACP Pistols on his hips. In an ankle holster, he has a MMI EP-3085 Pistol that fires .30 calibre rounds. In the field he replaces the jacket with a tactical vest and carries variants of the AK-337 depending on the mission parameters.
STRENGTH: 11
DEXTERITY: 13
HEALTH: 10
INTELLIGENCE: 14
PERSONALITY:Whilst the world degenerates into madness and chaos around him, battles are waged, with endless bloodshed spilled across fields in great cascading waves; Maël's attitude remains as calm and tranquil as the endless stillness of the Abyss. A life of loss and hardship has taught him to care and cherish those that surround him, yet he can no longer find it within himself to become attached to any individual that might want of him. For despite his feelings for them, he cannot guarantee their safety from the darkness of this world, he cannot risk those exaggerated feelings of loss again.
Maël generally tends to seclude himself from people, whilst living his life in an almost tamed state of paranoia. His pessimism has him convinced that one day soon the darkness will come to take them all once more. Instead of chasing the fleeting notions of his heart, he devotes his time to other, more constant aspects of his life, his interests now revolving around his professional work. He is however, no ignorant fool. Maël is well aware of how he is perceived by others, the cold, bitter snare of his persona. He appreciates that while he may no longer have time for his fleeting fancies there are others that should stand and fight for their love. This in turn is but one of the aspects of why he fights so strenuously for others. He suffers so that others might not have to.
Due to the nature of his enlistment, Maël believes that while working for others everything that happens must relate to the mission and its current objectives. He causes the atmosphere of the situation to become so formalized, it leaves little room for a social nature. Even when not working, Maël remains a blunt and honest man, and almost doesn’t see the point of small talk if it doesn’t have a purpose. Unfortunately it makes him rather macabre and dull, resistant to changes in his life style and the way he lives. If an action is justified, he can adopt it into his habitual return almost instantly and flawlessly.
Every morning he awakens to perform the same routine in preparation for his duties and what the day ahead may yet hold. Every time he’s on a mission he reacts the same way around his superiors, often frigid and cold, concise and to the point; in order to get on with the mission. In a sense, his life almost seems to run by clockwork some days, and people have questioned whether Maël is actually alive or just as cold and monotonous as the calculations he performs in his head.
While not necessarily religious himself, religion played a large part amongst his former family and so generally his work is followed with prayer, his daily sameness having gotten him into the habit of praying every night before he sleeps, yet his belief in God is uncertain at best. His Commander once asked, with the world so filled as it is with miracles and wonder, where darkness is slain and heroic feats performed; how can he not believe in a God that watches over them. His reply was that it is similar to how, in a world so filled with these splendours and countless wonders, man is still able to feel boredom and become slothful in nature.
Ultimately Maël is perceived as a level-headed young man, with a good sense of logic and reasoning and capable of showing an impressive level of initiative. He remains usually rather calm and collected under pressure and while his formal level of life can sometimes be a little off-putting, just talking to him; it becomes apparent why he is a suitable addition to the forces.
BIOGRAPHY:Born in Lille, France, Maël was quite a normal child, if a bit more shy and introverted than others. He preferred his books over people. To his parents, socialites and minor government dignitaries, it was a bit embarrassing when their only child would not show his faceto guests. In those rare times he did, he seldom spoke a word unless he was spoken to directly. When his head was not in a book, Maël was exploring the woods and fields near his parent's estate. When he was asked why he preferred the company of books and the wilderness to people, a seven year old Maël would say,"Around people, I'm different. Around books or outside, I'm not different."
He would have an unremarkable career during school up until twelve when he discovered his unique set of powers. Suddenly, he could read the memories of others or even follow them after just a touch. Objects, his precious books in particular, would sometimes come with haunting visions that would leave Maël unable to sleep or function for days afterwards as his young mind tried to assimilate all that it had learned. Eventually, he could not stay quiet about it. He approached his favorite teacher and told him about what he was experiencing. His teacher, a quiet man like Maël himself, could not remain silent on it. He reported Maël's unusual behavior and a short time later, at 14, Maël was a confirmed metahuman.
When his parents discovered their precious child was a metahuman, they did their best to exploit the situation. Pulling him from public school, they hired private tutors and instructors, fully intending to have their child become a superstar of the European Shield or even Team Infinity. Despite their best efforts though, Maël resisted them. He would not become a puppet for some organization that glorified and even deified metahumans. His parents' sudden adulation for their only child also brought nothing but scorn and contempt from Maël. He had been hurt. They hadn't in one moment been interested in the young adult. They had found him to be dull, too quiet, too shy, too boring. But now that he was a metahuman, they thought to use him to inflate their public standing.
When he turned eighteen, Maël accepted a very quiet offering of a job with the Commandement des Opérations Spéciales (COS) or Special Operations Command for the French government. Operating much in the same way as the clandestine SAP for the American government, Maël was a highly effective field agent. An errant touch of his hand and he could follow a target for any distance before closing in and eliminating the enemy. He would also be used in investigative roles where his retrocognition would allow him to discern past events with startling clarity. It was his calm, almost too soft whispers while interrogating prisoners, that would earn him his moniker. He saw a plethora of action from North Africa to India where his ability to speak in any language as well as his ability to blend in came in handy. What he saw, the depravities mankind and metahuman alike, were willing to inflict on each other hardened him. He started to view metahumans as a distinct, but future, threat to humanity's supremacy. Humanity, he believed, could survive itself. It would be what metahumans and what their powers allowed them to create that would lead to the destruction of humanity.
Unfortunately, many in the SOC did not share his opinions on metahumans. Already considered a loner, Maël's views isolated him further from his peers. In 2016, he tendered his resignation with the SOC and entered the world of private contracting. From France, it would lead him to the wildernesses between civilizations. There, he would operate with almost nothing to his name, working through contacts he had established while a member of the SOC to bring justice and peace to places that few governmental organizations cared for. His willingness to throw himself in to danger for strangers for pennies became well known. In many ways, without the government oversight, he became a far more capable and dangerous agent than he had been with the SOC.
As of 2020, Maël is a veteran of countless investigations and operations. His last known location before disappearing was in Uzbekistan with local forces in working to bring down a human traffic ring.
