				Played By TheHangedMan (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=12227)<br><br>Name: Ivan Demchak<br>Age: 24<br>Gender: Male<br>Nationality: Ukrainian<br>Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual<br>Sexual Style: Enjoys dominant women. Also prefers women to be in fetishwear while he is naked (CFNM). I would put BDSM, but, he is not particularly fond of being physically restrained or of pain. Offs include just about anything besides 'vanilla' sex, and the bits mentioned above. <br>Description: Black hair, kept short for its tactical advantage, with a perpetual five'o'clock shadow, he has brown eyes. He is five feet, nine inches tall, and weighs in around 180 lbs. Prefers to wear slightly raggedy, casual clothing. <br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Picture</div><div class="spoiler_body">(http://images3.webpark.ru/uploads52/080512/stalker_13.jpg)</div></div>Personality: Typically taciturn, though when he does choose to speak more than a one liner or a sentence or two, it's usually quite lively and animated, making many wonder at why he is so quiet all the time, when he seems so sociable. He is a very cold, logical person, and a utilitarian first and foremost. The rough life most Ukrainian's lead has endowed him with a certain resilience towards hardship, and he shows a kind of love for getting his hands dirty with labor. So people may be put off by the fact he is very multi-faceted, or seemingly multiple personalities; however, it should be noted that this is simply complexity of character, and not any mental illness.<br>Unique ability: Marzanna's Consort: Marzanna is a Slavic goddess, who presides over Death, Winter, and Nightmares.&nbsp; Having received her "blessing", he has nonetheless been marked by her; and as fickle as she can be, it is not shocking to imagine that <em>death will come for him</em> soon enough.<br><br>Firstly, he is capable of tolerating extreme cold with little or no ill effects to himself.&nbsp; He could go jogging in a Ukrainian blizzard in light clothing, and not get frostbite, as he is, himself, warded against the biting cold. However, he is quite cold himself, with his temperature rarely rising above room temperature, which has and will likely continue, to cause trouble. <br><br>Secondly, he is capable of essentially hexing other people, cursing them to be plagued by sleep-depriving nightmares, which may occasionally continue to haunt and harass a person well into their waking hours. He is loathe to use this ability, however, as his own dreams become troubled (though not to the extent of his victim).<br><br>Background: Born in Kobyzchka (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kobyzhcha), a small Ukrainian village of less than five thousand souls, to a police officer (his father, Dimitri), and a baker (His mother, Katja). <br><br>Though precocious, intelligent, and mature beyond his years, he had a fairly boring life as a child. It's only as a teenager, in high school, that things got interesting.<br><br>One day, he was walking home from his school, a distance of about three miles. As he was seventeen when this occurred, and had been doing this for three years, the distance was trivial; what was not, however, is the blizzard that descended upon their village no more than a half mile into his trip.<br><br>Wearing little more than a hooded sweatshirt, thick cloth pants, boots, fingerless gloves, and a cloth cap, it should be no surprise that the blizzard began to very quickly pose a significant threat to the youth's life. As he hurried along, the vim and vitality began to be sapped from his limbs by the cold; the sheets of snow made viewing anything beyond five feet in front of him a challenge, and served to make an already bad situation worse.<br><br>In desperation, he cried out, screaming alternatively for help, or for this damnable snow to let up; desperation led to a very unmanly pleading, begging, and cajoling.&nbsp; But, perhaps it was exactly that that drew the attention of something else to him. <br><br>Beautiful beyond words, skin as pale as the snow around him, and lips in a deathly shade of purple-blue, he was befuddled by what he saw before him. A naked woman? How was that even possible? Was he, perhaps, just hallucinating the whole thing, some sort of figment of his brain as it began to die, along with the rest of him?<br><br>He is not sure, to this day, what happened. What happened with the woman, if she were real or not; how in the hell he managed to survive the cold, and why he can do now, what he can. The old religion of his country makes mention of a goddess, and for all he knows, he had a fateful encounter with her; maybe, on that day, his pleas had been answered. <br><br>before being offered this job, he was preparing to join his father on the police force.&nbsp; Consequently, it should be noted, he has quite a bit of orthodox training in gun maintenance and use (especially in pistols and sub-machine guns). <br><br>Additionally, he speaks English well enough that he typically does not have difficulty communicating in the language.&nbsp; Ukrainian, however, remains his first language, and the one he is most comfortable with.

Tends to be dominant, but loves it when a woman turns the tables on her. Only interested in men if they're dominant right off the bat... and not necessarily then. Likes pain and rough sex, has little-to-no interest in romance.<br><br>Description: Threnody is five feet tall, with a slender build. Dark short hair in a feathery cut frames her fine-boned features. She has several piercings, and a large tattoo of stylized wings across her back.<br><br>Personality: Threnody is confident and self-assured, sometimes to a fault. She has a great appetite for life, and takes delight in intense sensations and extreme experiences. The only exception is that she doesn't indulge in<br><br>Unique ability: Astral projection. Threnody can separate her 'soul' from her body, allowing her to interact with ghosts and other spiritual entities. While she is doing this, her body appears to be unconscious... and is vulnerable to attempts at possession.<br><br>Background: Threnody was born to an American reporter and a Russian media mogul. She grew up spending time in both countries, generally in America for school and in Russia during the summers, while her mother travelled.<br><br>After she graduated, she signed up to be part of an experimental group in Russia, where they attempted to induce astral projection through the use of sensory deprivation tanks. Most people quit the project, while others snapped and ended up institutionalized. Threnody was the only successful case. Even then, Threnody's ability to project was very short range, and the project was considered to be a failure.<br><br>Left to her own devices, Threnody discovered that she could use her ability to communicate with the recently-dead, as long as their spirits still lingered... and some other astral entities, as well. After a fight with one of these left her in a coma for a month, Threnody sought out a shaman to study under.<br><br>She can now shapeshift while in astral form, and has a significantly increased range, able to travel at great distances away from her body. Prior to being recruited by the Agency, she worked as a freelance 'ghost buster,' convincing ghosts and poltergeists to move on -- or at least move out.<br><br><strong>GM Note:</strong> <em>An astrally projected soul is attached to its body by a thin umbillical called an 'Astral Chord'. This chord grows longer and thinner the further the soul moves away from the body. As it stretches it becomes more brittle and if it breaks then the body dies and the soul is trapped in limbo. <br><br>In general the projector will want to stay within about 100 mile radius of her body.</em><br>

				Played by Siereis (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=36165)<br><br><div class="floatleft">(http://oi46.tinypic.com/2gtw329.jpg)</div><br><strong>Name:</strong> Cho Eun-Mi (she goes by Mi for simplicity)<br><strong>Age:</strong> 19<br><strong>Gender:</strong> Female<br><strong>Nationality:</strong> Korean<br><strong>Sexual Orientation:</strong> Submissive and Bisexual - very slight male lean.&nbsp; However, due to her lack of a social life, Mi has very limited sexual or romantic experience - though of course nobody knows about this.<br><strong>Sexual Style:</strong> Non-consent, large insertions, messy play turn her on, though she does not quite know this about herself.<br><br><strong>Description:</strong> Mi is a relatively normal looking girl, preferring to not stand out.&nbsp; She has long, straight reddish black hair that reaches down to her waist and long bangs that constantly cover her eyes.&nbsp; She is Korean in descent and shares the same skin tone, looking quite pale and soft.&nbsp; Mi stands at only 5 feet tall and often has to look up at others when they talk.&nbsp; She has a slender build, a small chest, and long slender legs which she considers to be her best feature.&nbsp; In general, the girl does not like 'cute' clothes.&nbsp; Instead, she prefers to wear corset like vests that push up her small breasts or comfortable t-shirts.&nbsp; She rarely wears skirts or dresses and prefers a comfortable pair of short shorts that show off her long legs.&nbsp; On her small and honestly cute feet, the girl prefers to wear simple slippers (often with large bows on them), or high heels since they make her look more grown up.&nbsp; Lastly, Mi wears a pair of aviator sunglasses as often as possible - preferring to hide her own emotions since she knows how much people can learn by simple observation.<br><br><strong>Unique ability:</strong>&nbsp; Mi is a Empath.&nbsp; She is able to detect the emotional state of others.&nbsp; She uses this to her advantage nearly daily - knowing who is lying to her, determining when someone is embarrassed, or simple knowing what makes people happy for example.&nbsp; However, her abilities are quite limited.&nbsp; She must be quite close to her target, often standing no more than a few feet away.&nbsp; Additionally, she is only able to detect emotions, not thoughts or motivations.&nbsp; Lastly, her powers do not allow her to influence these feelings abnormally - for example, she is not able to make others feel depressed.<br><br><strong>Personality:</strong>&nbsp; Mi tends to be tomboyish in nature.&nbsp; She grew up in a family with 3 older brothers so she was always treated generally the same.&nbsp; She tends to be confident in herself, even more so due to her ability to decipher the emotions of others.&nbsp; Despite this self confidence, she is a quiet girl that prefers to be by herself with only her own thoughts.&nbsp; Additionally, Mi is quite lazy, which is not something easy for her to admit to herself.&nbsp; She learned that because of her ability, she could manipulate others emotionally, often hinting or suggesting things to get what she wanted when someone was in the right state of mind.&nbsp; This has resulted in her not exerting her full effort at work or back in school since she knows she can simply get her way regardless.&nbsp; Despite her confident appearance, Mi is quite self conscious of her looks and personality.&nbsp; She is always concerned with how others might perceive her and she tends to become embarrassed very easily for the most basic of mistakes, causing her to fluster and blush.&nbsp; Usually when this happens, she tries to cover up by acting mean or snark.&nbsp; In general, the girl is untrusting of others since she can tell when people lie - and they always do.<br><br><br><br><br><strong>Background:</strong>&nbsp; Mi was born in South Korea a little under 20 years ago.&nbsp; However, at a very young age her parents moved to England with her in tow.&nbsp; Due to her father's successful business, the girl grew up in a upper middle class home.&nbsp; However, despite all the material comforts available to her, the girl grew up depressed.&nbsp; Her parents were either always busy with work or socializing at parties, leaving her at home to take care of herself many a night.&nbsp; She made few friends at school and grew up as the socially awkward 'nobody' girl.&nbsp; She spent most of her time observing others in her class, wondering why they acted in the manner they did and how they felt.&nbsp; She went on this way for many years up into high school, when one day her life changed forever.&nbsp; <br><br>That day she was being bullied by an older senior male in the school.&nbsp; He had insisted that she hand over her lunch money or he'd switch her gym clothes out with a smaller pair when she wasn't looking.&nbsp; She gave in, reaching out and handing him the money that he insisted.&nbsp; However, just as her hand touched his, her mind suddenly felt odd and she could feel a nervous, almost scared external presence.&nbsp; She looked back up at the male towering over her and somehow came to the realization that this guy was only trying to impress a pair of nearby popular girls, and was actually quite nervous about bullying her.&nbsp; She ended up pushing him away and bullying him back.&nbsp; In the end, the bully ran off with his tail between his legs.&nbsp; Ever since that day, this odd ability has stayed with the girl.&nbsp; After graduating from high school, she eagerly moved away from her parents and has taken a job as a waitress.&nbsp; Her life after that was relatively simple, which pleased her since she did not like much drama in her life.&nbsp; However, she really did not appreciate how the restaurant she worked at required her to wear slim tank tops and rather revealing shorts all the time.&nbsp; Regardless..a job was a job and Mi was not about to complain.<br><br>One day when waiting tables, she met an odd woman by the name of Maria Perez.&nbsp; Mi had noticed Ms. Perez on a number of occasions and she had always thought the woman was watching her above all the other waitresses in the restaurant.&nbsp; Mi of course had no idea what the woman wanted, that is until she asked to talk with Mi after her shift ended.&nbsp; The pair talked in the back alley, where Maria told Mi that she was just like her - only instead of being able to detect emotions, Maria's ability was post cognition, that is she had the ability to remember history as if she was actually there.&nbsp; Mi was quite suspicious of the woman's tale, but after Maria was able to depict for Mi her own past in detail - the lonely nights spent by herself, Mi's suspicion was replaced by amazement.&nbsp; She just had to know more!&nbsp; Maria informed her that she worked for a man by the name of Richard Llewellyn, and she was part of some secret organization.&nbsp; Mi asked plenty of other questions about her, Richard, and this organization, yet Maria remained quite vague about it all.&nbsp; Maria set a date with Mi to talk again in her apartment and Mi agreed eagerly.&nbsp; However, when she arrived at the apartment, she found the other woman dead, a pool of rich red blood soaking into the carpet under her overturned body.&nbsp; Mi's eyes went wide with surprise and she let out a little yelp before turning to leave.&nbsp; However, just as she did so she came face to face with an Arab man who sank a wickedly curved knife into her stomach.&nbsp; The poor girl started crying as she realized she was about to die, her own blood dripped down her stomach and over her pale thighs before the man stabbed her again.&nbsp; She collapsed to the ground, her vision already fading as she slowly lost consciousness.&nbsp; <br><br>It seemed like eternity as she laid there on the floor dying, her blood pooling around her young body.&nbsp; However, just when she thought it was all over, she saw a man enter the room and kneel down next to her.&nbsp; She felt him trying to help her, getting his own hands soaked with her blood as he tried to stop the bleeding.&nbsp; Her vision continued to flicker in and out and the next part of her memory she is not sure she even remembered correctly.&nbsp; Somehow, the man offered some of his own blood to the dying girl.&nbsp; After a few minutes of taking in his blood, a surge of energy suddenly coursed through the girl causing her to arch her back in pleasure as her eyes went wide.&nbsp; She felt her life force return to her as she sat up and eyed the now exhausted male.&nbsp; The two of them talked for a while, Mi's legs still covered in her own blood.&nbsp; He told her more about the organization and offered to meet with her again.&nbsp; Feeling like she owed him everything - and perhaps she did - she eagerly agreed.&nbsp; The pair met two more times after that incident and after the second meeting, Richard offered her a place within the agency.&nbsp; Still not quite sure what was in store for her, Mi agreed.

It is nothing like a hot guy taking control with a little bondage and some hair pulling she would submit&nbsp; in a heart beat. She is not a fan of Scat. Gore. Vore,Bestiality and Taboos like incest. <br>Description: Macy Stands 5,9 in her favorite pink Stiletto heels She weighs 125 with curves that can&nbsp; kill. Long black hair accompany by her hazel brown eyes that can hypnotize.&nbsp; Because she loves it when all eyes are on her she dresses to perfection in the latest styles the most expensive jewelry.<br>(http://i457.photobucket.com/albums/qq291/neesee101/images5-1.jpg)<br>Personality:&nbsp; Macy is a fun and playful woman she would weather party the day away&nbsp; then play by the rules. She is always messing around and being care free which can bother people at times. But she uses her sweet smile and laughter to ease the tension in the room.&nbsp; <br><br>Unique ability: With her sweet smile and one look into your hazel eyes she can change the way you think and speak in a matter of seconds by using mind manipulation. Another thing she can do is shape shift in to any person some times even animals but that is only if she really puts her mind to it.&nbsp; <br><br>Sadly using these abilities&nbsp; have horrifying side effect like:&nbsp; If she uses mind manipulation too many times in a day she loses her own free will by&nbsp; become a slave to anyone’s word even if the Tv told her to do something she would. These event are flowed by a pounding headache and a series of emotional ups and downs that enable her to think straight. When it comes down shape shifting&nbsp; she has to avoid her own reflection&nbsp; cameras, Video recording devices, even mirrors can cause her to unwilling revile her true self. In some cases if she catches a glimpse of herself in the mirror as another person she ends up staying as the person for hours or days. On a rare occasion she stayed her grandmother for 2 months. <br><br><br>Background:&nbsp; Before she was born her mother and father were strangers she was the product of a drunken one night stand. Her mother was&nbsp; a&nbsp; belly dancer and her father&nbsp; a naive man in the wrong place.&nbsp; For reasons unknown at the time her mother left her in her father’s care. She grew up a simple child although she discovered she could shape shift. Her father made her swear not to tell any one and she did not. <br><br>When Macy turned 11 her absent mother had returned. Instead of greeting her with hugs and kisses she kidnapped her in the dead of night and took her to a small village in India . During her first months with her mother she hated her and could not understand why she was taken. It was not long after that she discovered her powers like her mother she was bless with ability to manipulate minds. <br><br>Her mother taught her how to use her powers and it was not an easy task. She&nbsp; learned how to use the art of belly dancing to manipulate minds. While a man eyes were focus on the way the hips moved and the snake like movement the body their mind was being manipulated into doing what ever the dancer wanted. As she grow older she discovered that she did not need to dance to use her power she just simple had to look at them eye to eye and get what she wanted. <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>On her eighteenth birthday she returned to home to the U.K&nbsp; and became obsessed with getting her way. Every chance she got she used her powers one day she got&nbsp; in some trouble when she was caught cheating&nbsp; in an underground gambling ring called the Fox Den. It was shortly after she sweet talked her way out of the Den&nbsp; that she was recruited&nbsp; by The Agency.<br>

She it's a difficult girl to interact with socially because of her ability, too strong of a scent and she will hate you forever. Her ability is permanently active which can cause a series of difficulties in her interaction with others. She is the type of girl that is difficult to gain her trust however when you do she would be your friend forever. She doesn't know much about supernatural entities however her senses serve as a walking crime lab which can prove useful to the team.<br><br>Unique ability:<br>Rachel is a Synesthete. Her synesthesia allows her to enhance, or detract her natural senses. She can enhance her eyesight to see at microscopic levels, hear heartbeats from meters away, determine the chemical composition of objects by smell, dissect food ingredients by taste, and determine fabrics by touch.<br><br>While she is focusing on one active sense all the rest are abandoned, which would make her not hear any warning signs if she is focusing on taste or not see anything if she focus on hearing etc etc.<br><br>Background:<br><br>She was born and raised in California, ever since little she always had a love for studies and a love for trying to identify what is the component of something, living or otherwise. She used to break up things and find out what was on the inside, what made that particular stuff move or act. She never held on a cellphone for quite too long, she quickly became bored of finding out how non living objects worked and went on to the university to find out how living things worked and what they had on the inside, how it all came together to give life to a human or animal. On her first day in collage something amazing happened, to this day she cannot explain it.<br><br>While she was cleaning her house she suddenly felt a bit dizzy, every sense in her body began to go overdrive as she could hear what was going on distance away. She could also smell the urine her cat left on the rug a few days ago, her sight began to get bombarded with germs and bacteria all over the place. Whatever she touched she knew what it was made of and how it felt, she could know some of the compounds only by touching them. That moment there was horrible it lasted for quite a few hours. However after fainting she noticed that all her senses became much more defined and she could focus on one sense and abandon the other. The sense that she focused on would be amazingly amplified in a way that only the most expensive machines could equal her.&nbsp; Ever since that moment she dedicated herself to perfect that ability. She had no idea why she did it or how it was possible but she knew that she was different. Quitting collage soon after she dedicated herself to study on her own knowing that schools didn't had what she needed, not anymore.

				Played by Banks] (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=37928)<br><br><strong>Name</strong>: Sam Doyle<br><strong>Age</strong>: 28<br><strong>Gender</strong>: Male<br><strong>Nationality</strong>: American<br><br><strong>Picture</strong><br>(http://image.shutterstock.com/display_pic_with_logo/67018/67018,1194032889,23/stock-photo-young-handsome-boxer-6678688.jpg)<br><br><strong>Sexual Orientation</strong>: Hetero.<br><br><strong>Sexual Style</strong>: Switch. Prefers to be in control.&nbsp; His partners pleasure is his pleasure but only so long as he is the one providing it.&nbsp; He is not rough but can be forceful if his partner seems to be hiding her true needs/feelings (not into rape though).<br><br><strong>Description</strong>: Sam is 5'10 tall, he has a thin but muscular build with big shoulders due to his amateur boxing training (wiry is the word).&nbsp; He has short hair, dark eyes and seems to be grinning every time you look at him.&nbsp; His likes to keep any edge he can get over people both in social relations and fighting, and as such eats healthy and keeps substance abuse to a minimum (mostly alcohol and only on social occasions).<br><br><strong>Personality</strong>: Sam has two great loves: the exhilarating feeling of winning, and women.&nbsp; He takes both of those things for granted - he is popular as an amateur boxer, and his ability gives him a significant edge over most opponents.<br>He is generally distrusting of others, and trusts only himself.<br><br><strong>Unique ability</strong>: He has uncanny control over the muscles in his own body and that of anyone he touches.&nbsp; He can slow his heart-rate down to near nothing, can operate each of his muscles individually allowing for seemingly greater than normal strength and accuracy.&nbsp; In addition, he can cause muscle spasms in a target as long as he is touching the effected muscles through their skin.<br><br><strong>Weakness</strong>: It requires a lot of concentration, and leaves him extremely fatigued afterwards (depending on the time he uses this skill and how many muscles involved he could literally be dragging his feet trying to walk afterwards).&nbsp; <br>In addition, every now and again after overusing his muscles he gets an extreme jolt of pain.&nbsp; It does not last long and he has never been able to identify any aftereffects (OOC: GM choice what to do with this.&nbsp; If requested I could work it out more).<br><br><strong>Background</strong>: <br>Born to American Irish parents in Chicago, Illinois Sam never new his mother.&nbsp; She had run out on his dad at an early age.&nbsp; He never begrudged her the fact, as he hardly knew his dad well either, being a Cab driver left him away from home most evenings and Sam's school life kept them from seeing each other during the day.<br><br>Sam went to school in a standard Chicago city public school, made a few friends but all in all he wasn't that into school life until he got into his first fight.&nbsp; The other kid was both older and bigger than him.&nbsp; As they started to fight he not only noticed that he was stronger, but also that he was faster than his opponent.&nbsp; He won by a landslide, changing his life change forever.&nbsp; Throughout his school life people now either feared him, sucked up to him or wanted to fight him.&nbsp; He was fine with all 3.<br>It was not until a few years later that he fully came into his powers - during a fistfight he had laid a few punches on some guys mid-section.&nbsp; He felt the impact, but more than that he felt the strain on the other guys muscles, he felt as though he could give it an extra push if he tried.&nbsp; The next hit he scored he tried it, the extra push.&nbsp; Two things happened, first he felt a jolt of pain in the muscles of his hand, and second his opponent collapsed almost immediatly, clutching his stomach and rolling on the floor.<br>As it turned out Sam's punch caused a rupture in his opponent's abdominal muscle which ended up needing surgery and 2 months of rehab.<br>Sam was kicked out of school due to the incident.<br><br>He thought long and hard about his powers, and what he wanted out of life after this incident concluding that he loved fighting, and that he still needed a job.<br>Not wanting to bring a lot of attention to himself he joined an amateur boxing gym, where he could fight all he wanted without much fear of reprisal.<br>As for the job, that sorted itself out.&nbsp; His dad had been planning on teaching him the taxi business anyway, and there was no time like the present.<br><br>Over 10 years this became his routine, work evenings and nights driving a taxi like his old man, fighting and training during the day.&nbsp; He got more and more proficient in his powers and was even able to cause minor spasms in his opponents through boxing gloves.&nbsp; He used this edge to win most of his fights, assuming no one could be aware of this type of power and even if they were would be unable to notice his using it.

				Played by Callie Del Noire (http://"http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=7724")<br><br>Name: Callie Del Noire (Legally changed from Emerald Anne Dante)<br>Age: 22<br>Gender: Female<br>Nationality: United Kingdom (Dual Citizen: Norway)<br>Sexual Orientation:&nbsp; Bi (slight lean towards women)<br>Sexual Style: Dominant (Not currently assertive.. avoids sexual 'synergy' whenever possible)<br>Description: <br>(http://img.devotedpics.com/a/asdis-ran/miscellaneous/asdis-ran-pictures-34.jpg)<br>Personality: Withdrawn and very phobic to the touch. Used to be more dynamic and assertive, occasionally her old personality drives come up, particularly online or on the phone where touching isn't an issue.<br>Unique ability: Object Reading: She can read the auras of objects and get an impression of past actions and events it was involved in and if the 'owner' has a powerful connection some future actions/events. (No more than a few hours and typically only a very general/fleeting impressions). She has felt a link with at least on object that gave her abilities that she herself didn't know (lock picking).<br>Background: The daughter of an English Lord and a Norwegian model, she was raised by her father after her mother's death in a car accident. She grew up in the lap of luxury till she was kidnapped by a group of mobsters in London. Injured in the kidnapping, she was in a near death state for over a week while her kidnappers negotiated her ransom while struggling to keep her alive.&nbsp; <br>Waking during this time, she managed to get a set of picks from the kidnappers and the 'spirit' (a man who called himself 'Kip', and claimed to be a second story man from the 50s) tied to them guided her out of the hidden tenement she was being held in. Several days later, over whelmed by the 'noise' of some many impressions in the various streets, tunnels, abandoned buildings she hid in she was found in a severe state of distress by the police and quietly turned over to her father for psychiatric care. <br>Luckily her respite was in a fairly new building, only a year old with no violet impressions on the materials yet. Diagnosed as a drug related psychotic break, she withdrew from her outgoing social life and turned to her artistic talents and set up house on a nice little houseboat newly made for her father (who knows about her 'talent' and suspect it has something to do with her mother's stories of 'witches' in her family). She recently changed her name to reduce her visibility after she moved out and has changed her look a bit to further hide from the prying reporters and other interested parties. <br>'Lady Del Noire' has started a quiet business in forgery (she prefers to think of it as 'art replication'. She has recently found a 'ritual' to keep auras from 'sticking' to objects but typically still favors new clothing, long gloves and brings her own culterly and drinking implements with her to any&nbsp; public appearances she makes.
