Aspects of the music cause differing effects in her. Exceptionally hard music will grant greater strength. Exceptionally heavy music greater durability. Fast music greater speed. Smooth, flowing music, greater agility. She carries a high capacity mp3 player with wireless headphones to quickly switch to and from music suitable for various tasks. Power Weaknesses or Limitations: Her powers are completely dependent on music. If deprived of sound, she returns to a natural state, becoming actually quite weak and fragile. Power Source: Music Fighting Skills / Disciplines: While she has never had any formal training, her fighting style somewhat resembles Capoiera, though she does not refrain completely from using her hands. Other Skills: Musical Genius: Joan has a perfect ear for notes, chords, and everything. She could compose the soundtrack to your life as your were living it. Distracting figure: Due to the dramatic shape of her body, people are often distracted by Joan. --- PERSONALITY Personality: Joan has no qualms about killing those who give her trouble, and in fact frequently hangs out in dark alleys looking vulnerable just to draw in would be muggers and rapists to kill. In addition, Joan’s childhood was extremely sheltered, so she is unfamiliar with many aspects of day to day life that many people take for granted. Psychological Weaknesses: Being unfamiliar with certain taboos of society, Joan is extremely eager to jump on any opportunity for pleasure. Goals: To be decided. Allegiances: The music. --- HISTORY Joan's childhood was filled with an abundance of two things. Music and comic books. Her father was rhythm guitar and lead vocals in a small time but successful post-industrial band, and her mother was an orchestra cellist. Joan was homeschooled and could play six instruments by the time she was ten. At almost any given time, Joan could be found in her room, doing one of two things. Listening to music, or reading a comic book, composing the soundtrack to the comic in her head. Often both at once. Her life was perfectly fine, if sheltered, until one day when she was 17. While she laid on her bed at home, high fidelity noise cancelling headphones pumping pure 1990s industrial into her head, her parents left the house to go pick up some groceries. A mugger, high as a kite on god knows what, accosted the two, wielding a gun. The mugger, completely out of his mind, accidentally shot Joan's father in the gut, then to cover his crime, he killed both of them and ran away. He was caught less than a day later, but that didn't help Joan cope any. For the next few days, she was locked in her room, music blasting loud enough to bother the entire block. In grief and frustration, she pounded her fist into the wall, and was surprised when her tiny fist shattered not only the drywall, but the oak stud behind it. Discovering she had superpowers was not among Joan’s expectations for the day, but she wasn’t about to let it go to waste. Selling almost every possession she owned, which now included all her parent’s things as well, Joan went off into the world armed only with a pair of obscenely expensive headphones and a high capacity MP3 player. She’s gonna fight the war. and use her music as a weapon. |
