Maverick

ALIAS(ES): Maverick, Sel, Elsa, Miss Mischief - she used to have a lot of stupid nicknames
BIRTHDAY: unknown, she celebrates on August 15th
BIRTHPLACE: assumably Cadmus Labs
CURRENT: Gotham City
FAMILY:

• Mother: unknown
• Father: unknown
• Foster father: McKenna Taylor, aged 50

ALLIANCE: for now it's only herself
RANK: /
WEAPON: Most of the time, Selina carries a handgun with her. On missions, the weapons can vary, always depending on her task. Due to her skills as a marksman, however, she's mostly hired as a sniper on missions that require more stealth.
Her favorites are a M1911A1 pistol and a Zavasta M91
POWER: (Selina was originally created as an enhanced human who is able to learn every kind of skill just by observing other persons. However, it seemed like she only could posess little superpowers at once. Her main power is now telekinesis, where she specialized on atomic manipulation. She wouldn't change that power again, since she has used it for years now and is very experienced in it. Her original power also lets Selina learn physical skills faster. However, she just "forgets" them after a while if she doens't use them often enough.)

• Telekinesis: Selina is able to move/levitate/crush whole objects but she's also trained in atomic manipulation, which allows her to alter single atoms, resulting in her being able to move liquids and control electricity or set things on fire by letting molecules move really fast to the point where the object combusts. Selina is also able to create telekinetic force fields or blasts.

• Spatial sense: Selina can track down people or objects in a small radius by sending out weak telekinetic waves, similar to echolocation. Sometimes, if still rarely, people can also feel these waves. Selina is only able to feel the surfaces of her surroundings and therefore can't track things hidden inside another object, like a box or behind closed doors.

• Psionic strength: While Selina already possesses more strength and stamina than the average human adult, she can use telekinetic blasts to be able to punch through walls or leap tall buildings.

• Invisibility: This power rarely works. Selina bends the light around her, so it appears that people see only the environment behind her. This requires a lot of concentration and most of the time, Selina is spottet anyway after some time. This power definitely needs more practise.

BLOOD TYPE: AB+
ORIENTATION: Bisexual
SCARS AND MARKINGS: a small scar on her left cheek
COLOR(S): grey, black, blue
UNIFORM: On missions, Selina wears a grey hooded coat with fingerless gloves, dark leather pants and black boots, that go just under her knees. Under the coat, she wears a thick, sleeveless black top over a longer and thinner blue one. The most significant part about her outfit would be the metal skull mask. Apart from concealing and sometimes also scaring her opponents, the mask doesn't have any special use.

DESCRIPTION: With 5'9" Selina is a bit above the average height of women her age. She's got an athletic build and midtone caucasian skin with a small dusting of freckles across her nose. Her hair has the color of a dark ashy blonde and reaches a bit over her shoulders. Most of the time, she wears her hair open and in it's natural straight form. Selina has cold, grey-blue eyes, full lips, which she often likes to cover with a dark red lipstick, and a small scar on her left cheek, thanks to her tempering with shapeshifting abilities. Selina ages differnt than normal humans - sometimes aging quicker, sometimes slower -  so her age is a bit hard to tell. According to files, she's 25 years old but she looks a bit older than that. Selina thinks this was caused by her trying to change her look with a former shapeshifting ability because she doesn't know she was originally created by Cadmus, which is the actual reason of the irregular aging process.

PLAY-BY: Claire Holt

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fear: She can be triggered really badly when someone reminds her of the gang she used to work for or her time in the lab. She's also afraid of her father finding out about her true identity as Maverick.

Desire: Frankly, apart from not dying during missions, she doesn't really hope for anything. Sometimes she still tries to find out who her real parents are or how she gained her powers.

HABITS: Selina tends to crack her bones, especially her fingers, when she's nervous. When she's bored and noone else is around, she likes to telekinetically move smaller objects around.
PET PEEVE: Selina just can't stand overly friendly people. She also doesn't like people who won't stop correcting or criticizing her.

STRENGTHS:
• is very athletic and has high stamina - biologic enhancement by Cadmus and a lot of training gave Selina the right condition
• freerunning skills - when she was younger, Selina did a lot of parcouring and uses a lot of the learned moves now during missions
• expert marksman skills - during her time in the gang, Selina learned to use a great range of firearms. She almost never misses a target with any kind of gun
• courage

WEAKNESSES:
• is really hot-headed - Selina can get into fights really easy and she's very stubborn
• often doesn't take things serious enough - even if Selina is really courageous, she often miscalculates things and over-estimates herself
• she's a really big show-off
• she's defenseless against other telekinetics that are able to break through her shields or stop energy blasts
• after she has used her telekinetic abilities for a long time, Selina becomes really exhausted and tired, often permanently sleeping for several days

TRAITS: Selina has a really bubbly character. She's pretty self-confident and rather a leader. At least she's better at giving orders than following them properly. You could say that she's got that "f*ck the rules"-attitude, often resulting in fights with overly correct bosses. She goes along with anything as long as it would mean that she'd reach her goals.
Sometimes she's afraid of her father's opinion on her since she's now working for other criminals. However, she blames others for her crimes and rather sees herself as a victim. Nevertheless, she's got the feeling, Mac would be disappointed of her and thus hasn't seen him for years now.
Selina likes to work alone, since she trust herself more than others but if she has found someone she can get along with and who she likes, she's always loyal to them. The same loyality is then expected in return. It's very hard to get her trust back, if it's once broken. Well - IF you even get the chance to. That to say, Selina can be really cruel. There were a lot of people who lost their lifes when she found out, they betrayed her - she kills without remorse.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

HISTORY: 8 years ago, in 2010, Selina was artificially created by Cadmus - her biological parents are unknown. The scientists' goal was to create an advanced soldier by only using human metagenes and no alien donors. Selina was also implanted fake memories, so she would have the illusion of a childhood and other things before the time in the laboratory. After all important test were done, Selina was moved to another facility for training but she never got to meet other experiments like her. She only heard of them, while she was being trained alone. Back then, the girl's powers were still changing from time to time but she couldn't control any of them properly. One day, something within her body changed, causing the artificial memories to fail. She then saw everyone of the scientists and her tutors as enemies and tried to escape the facility with all the powers she posessed at the time. After a lot of struggle, the girl acually managed to flee and found herself in New York City some time later.

The girl couldn't remember anything except her fake name and age - 17-year-old Selina. She was wandering around the city all alone, so she got picked up by the NYPD at some point. After no one seemed to know anything about her, not even Selina herself, they tried searching her in different databases - without finding anything. After a few days without getting any respones from 'her parents', the girl should have been brought the adoption office but in the time, she was at the NYPD, she became friends with a policeman, named Taylor. Before Selina could be given away, he decided to adopt Selina, giving her her current name.

Mac soon discovered Selina’s powers, but decided to keep them a secret. After all, he didn’t want her to become the city’s new attraction.
In 2012, after she'd finished High School, Selina moved away to study. At first she didn’t want to stay in the new city and drop out of college, because people near the college were going missing without a trace. A lot of people assumed that there was a murderer roaming the streets but as far as Selina can remember, the police never found the right guy.

After some time, some scientific company noticed Selina and her abilities and wanted to do some experiments on her. Fearing, that they would be the same scientists that 'held her captive' a few years ago, Selina refused to work with them. They started threatening her by saying they would blame her for the city’s murders but Selina still didn’t agree, so they spread their lies and probably created false evidence. At some point, the police showed up in front of her house. Although Selina tried to explain everything, noone would listen, so she tried to escape by using her powers. However, something went wrong and the police kind of triggered something within the girl, causing her to kill an agent by accident. Now Selina was searched by the company and the police.

After months of being on the run, she was offered shelter by Sky, some guy who supposedly assumed, she was a homeless. The two grew closer after some time and they eventually started dating each other. Selina told him about her real identity, whereupon Sky revealed, that he and some other people had some trouble with these scientists, too, and they would still be attacking him sometimes. The two agreed to stick together and hunt down some of the company's 'henchmen' with the help of the other persons.
With the time, Selina regained some of her memory and her powers finally manifested, her main power now being telekinesis. With sky and the group they formed, Selina also learned how to use firearms, soon becoming very skilled in this field.

Sky and her lived together for a while and Selina grew more and more confident, knowing that they could defeat their enemies together. The idea of finally having power and control over others kind of appealed to her and she started to enjoy killing not only her targets but everyone who got in her way. She loved the chaos and causing it just for the sake of chaos.
However one day, Selina found out, that she wasn’t even killing her persuers and that Sky was not one of their targets either. The group she was in was simply a small gang of criminals, some of them using metapowers to accomplish their goals. This lead to a fight between her and Sky, which ended deadly for the latter.
The next few days, Selina tracked down the rest of the gang, killing every member of it in 2013. She didn't really have any benefit from it. She just hated the thought of being manipulated without suspecting a thing and she felt like vengence was the only way to make up for it.

After that, Selina didn't really know what to do or where to go. For some time, she tried to live a normal life while she was researching everything about metas and the scientists in an attempt to find her biological parents.
After a few years, however, she noticed, that this just wasn't the kind of life, she was created for. She needed a bit more thrill, so she came up with the idea of having a secret anti-hero-identity, though she soon found out, that a hero-life also was not her thing. It was probably the fact that she was created as a weapon after all - to harm people, not to safe them was her task. So, in 2016, Selina decided to move to Gotham, trying to find any work in the city of crime.

Now, she's been living there for several years now, becoming one of the most infamous assassins. She has heard of a lot of heroes, that tried to protect Gotham from people like her but until now, she has alwas managed to escape them. She knows that they can also do good, seeing how they solved the Reach Crisis but she'd still rather not get caught.
For a few weeks now, Selina also has a new goal, that's giving her even more motivation.
She received a hint about her origins and Cadmus' scientists, so she's currently working on finding out more about her past.

RP SAMPLE:

This is it..., Selina thought as she looked at the builidng in front of her.
She has waited here for hours now. It was already dark outside but one couldn't miss the big "cadmus - advanced laboratory research"-sign that was being illuminated. She wondered what she would find in there. According to the media, it was, well, a lab - like the name already indicated. To be honest, she thought this particular facility had already been abandoned or at least gone but she thought she had seen people enter the lab before and the lit nameplate also showed that the owner still cared at least a bit about it.

After Selina had waited for what she thought had been long enough, she put on her mask and hood and started to infiltrate the building.
She jumped up the building and made her way to one of the windows, facing away from the street, before she used her telekinesis to open it from the inside and sliding in.
The hallway, she was now standing in, seemed dark and abandoned and Selina also couldn't sense anything interesting nearby. The rooms on this level also seemed pretty uninteresting, she went for the elevator at the end of the corridor. The lab apparently had two levels, so there probably weren't too many rooms left to search through. Yet, simply opening the elevator turned out to be harder than expected. After a bit of tempering with the door mechanism, however, she managed to get in. The inside surprised Selina even more. Two-story building, huh? The buttons of the elevator showed so many levels, she didn't even know where to start her search. How deep was this thing? After a bit of podering about which level to search first, Selina decided to simply go to the first basement-level. In case she got stuck, she could just jump back to the main level, which most likely wasn't possible from the other end of the lift shaft.

The doors closed again and opened just a few seconds after, now leading to a hallway that finally looked more like a laboratory. Selina started to rush out and search for important files just when she heard footsteps in the corridor. She immediately stopped and searched cover, where she built up a force-field around her, which was serving as a second skin, just to be safer. She silently waited in her hideout while she was trying to sense the other person.

ANYTHING ELSE? (English is not my native language so I hope you don't mind some mistakes. Always feel free to correct me. )
