Player: A-C
Name: Lapsang Souchong
Codename: Yi Sheng
Age: 16
Height: 5'3"
Weight: 110
Hair: Medium tone, very rich brown
Eyes: Mid-brown
Nationality: Chinese American.
Occupation: None
Appearance:
Lapsang Souchong is a short, delicate young girl. It is also fair to say she is a petite lady; she's a thin, frail little thing who looks, and acts, like she might break in half after naught more than a stern word.
She has mousey brown hair, cut into a jaw length bob cut. She hopes this will offset her asian facial features. It does not.
Typically, Sou wears very modest clothing. Long skirts and ornate oriental shirts are the norm, although she owns several cheongsam, withheld for special occasions. Or when she feels like it.
Costume:
Although Sou tries not to go to battle, she does have a uniform she can wear should the situation require it. It looks like a Japanese-style nurses uniform, complete with a little hat. The costume is entirely white in colour, save for the hat, which carries her insignia in the centre.
The costume is made from an experimental fabric developed by Sou's parents. The material, like its owner, is constantly repairing itself so that any damage or imperfection is repaired in a matter of minutes.
Insignia:
Sou's insignia is a small red circle, adorned with a white cross. It's the symbol of the red cross, except with the colours reversed for legal reasons.
Personality:
Souchong's thin, frail build is reflected in her psyche. She is convinced that the world and its wife are out to get her, cart her away to a testing facility and do unspeakable things to her on account of her powers. She maintains that the fact it hasn't happened only means it's one day closer to happening.
Generally, Sou is calm, quiet and withdrawn. She carries herself with an almost aloof, serene grace that comes from someone who has spent most of her life hanging back, observing. If, however, one were to get to know Souchong and to look beyond her distant, almost aloof nature, they'd find that she isn't holding herself above her peers. Rather, she is keeping herself from making friends because she feels this is the best course of action given her powers.
Background:
Lapsang Souchong is a mutant. Specifically, she was born with a sensational healing factor. Her parents were, initially, blind to their daughters mutation, instead believing her to be a hardy individal, much like every child her age. The souchong's naivety continued until their daughter was eight, when a horrendous accident in the kitchen completely failed to leave a lasting mark.
Lapsang continued living her life as she always had; oblivious to the fact she was different to those around her. Sou's parents revealed the truth to her on her sixteenth birthday. As if that weren't enough, they told their daughter how her mutation had inspired their favourite pet project.
You see, Sou's parents were both scientists working for Zillion Industries. Drawing inspiration from their daughters genetic oddities they had conspired to develop a fabric suffused with various compounds that would constantly maintain itself and instantly set right any imperfections.
Lapsang was distraught by the news; Not so much with the reveal that she was a mutant, but more that her parents had conducted experiments based on her genetics. She began to realise that, if her parents had no qualms conducting research on her, then nobody would. To make matters worse, her powers were steadily becoming more deep rooted and more effective as she began healing the wounds of those around her, rather than just herself.
After her parents made their big reveal, Lapsang began to feel that she was not safe. Her fear, coupled with her realisation that there are some truly evil people in the world, caused Sou to resign from her social life, resigning herself to hiding in her room and studying alone.
The Souchong's began to ask around for a solution to their problem and it was not long before word of their plight reached the ears of a certain higher-up within zillian Industries. The aforesaid (but strangely unidentified) executive used her knowledge of and contacts within the Sunshine of Destiny Academy to extend an invitation to the Souchong family, allowing Lapsang a place to study and flower without the constant fear of abduction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fighting----- (#) Practically zero.
Agility------ (#) Again, practically zero. She's pretty good at running away, though.
Strength----- (#) Well below average.
Endurance---- (#) God-like.
Reasoning---- (#) Fantastic.
Intuition---- (#) Absolutely amazing. Her recent life has been spent observing the people around her so she's good at spotting things.
Psyche------- (#) Sou's powers are stuck in the on position. She has no way of not healing those around her, so this stat would be pretty high I guess.
Hit Points: #value
Mental health: #value
Resources: A substantial amount of money, up to, say, fifty thousand.
Source of Income- While Sou does not work, her parents use their profits to fund her.
Contacts - The science team at the company her parents work for.
Origin of Powers: Mutation. (Insert that one song's lyrics here)
Powers:
Power-
Lapsang is constantly surrounded by a healing aura. The aura extends for anything between two and a half to three metres in all directions. While the aura can pass through sheets (clothing, cloth screens, etc.) it cannot not pass through walls and floors.
This aura is enough to heal any and all injuries, from minor cuts and scrapes to more serious injuries such as broken bones or missing limbs. Limitations of her powers can be find in the weaknesses section.
The aura does not influence peoples mood, feelings or emotions. Generally people are happier around Sou, but this is due to 'suddenly not bleeding to death' and so on, rather than her powers making them feel cheerful.
I don't know the specific numbers behind her healing factor, but it would be enough to get even the most severely injured fighters back on top form after a matter of hours, rather than days or weeks.
*Weaknesses
While not a Superhero weakness as such, Sou cannot control her healing factor. She cannot aim it, strengthen or weaken it and she cannot control who is and is not affected by it, she simply heals any and all people who get close enough. Thus, if she were to get close to her mortal enemy, she'd heal them as a direct result of it. The same goes for any passing civilians, animals, etc.
Sou's power also has limitations. While she can mend broken bones, knit torn skin and remove burns, etc., she cannot cure illnesses or diseases. Nor can she bring people back to life. On a similar tack, Souchong's power will only work on living, organic materials. She cannot repair electronics, for example, or unrust metal.
*Stunt-
Physical contact amplifies her powers to the point that wounds, etc. will heal in a matter of minutes, rather than hours. She can, quite literally, kiss it better.
Skills-
Given the amount of time she has spent outside of social circles, Sou has taught herself a great many craft-based skills. She is good at drawing, painting, sewing, knitting, cooking, playing various musical instruments and other such hobbies. She is not skilled with technical issues, however, so she could not, for example, tune a car, construct a robot or hack a computer.
Lapsang is not particularly athletic. Although she is slim and has a fit physique, she cannot run for prolonged periods of time or pull off gymnastic feats in order to escape a pursuer.
Knowledge-
Sou is fluent in Chinese and English.
She is also fairly knowledgable in a wide variety of areas. She specialises in survival tactics.
