NAME: Ashley Merideth Wakefield ALIASES: n/a --- PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION Species: Metahuman Gender: Female Age: 20 Height: 5' 7" Weight: 130 lb Ethnicity: Caucasian Appearance: ![]() --- POWERS AND SKILLS Powers: -Superhuman Sense of Sight: Ash sees in more electromagnetic spectrums than the average human or metahuman, including infrared and ultraviolet. Thus, she is, in theory, capable of detecting changes in heat radiated by objects and people simply by looking at them, in the manner of thermography. Additionally, she sees with greater clarity than an ordinary human, and at greater distances thanks to her telescopic eyesight, even in near darkness. -Superhuman Sense of Hearing: Her ears are twice as sensitive as the average human or metahuman. Theoretically, she could use this capability to locate a person by the sound of movement, or even their own heartbeat. -Superhuman Sense of Touch: Ash’s sense of touch has become overwhelmingly acute. Though she has incredible difficulty interpreting these new sensations, she is capable of sensing changes in temperature and atmospheric pressure around her. -Superhuman Sense of Smell: For Ash, smells are more profoundly invigorating or disgusting, depending on context. -Superhuman Sense of Taste: I have no idea how this a superpower, but she totally has it. -Superior Balance: The structure and composition of Ash's inner ear grants her above average natural balance and equilibrium. Power Weaknesses or Limitations: Her eyes are incredibly sensitive, and highly susceptible to over-stimulus. She is particularly vulnerable to arc eye. While she has yet to suffer any permanent eye damage, she suffers from chronic migraines caused by eye strain. Ash has difficulty making sense of the various spectrums she is capable of seeing in, and wears a pair of wrap-around eyeglasses to filter out everything except visible light, for her comfort and convenience. Ash has difficulty zeroing in on the source of a sound, particularly in busy areas, where ambient noise is high. This difficulty increases with distance. Very high frequency sounds are extremely agitating, and can cause her discomfort. Power Source: Internal/Metabolic Fighting Skills / Disciplines: Karate (Green Belt) Other Skills: -Graphic Artist: Ash is skilled in digital art, and 3d modelling and animation. She has an excellent eye for color and form. -Computer: Ash built her own PC, which she uses for commissioned work and gaming. It's been padded to reduce noise. --- PERSONALITY Personality: Ash is articulate, but glib and irreverent. Self-effacing to a fault, she tends to use humor and sarcasm as a means of deflecting tension. Psychological Weaknesses: Ash tends to make a show of her own wit, and craves attention. She tends to generalize or trivialize a situation. Goals: Build a resume, get a degree, get her career moving. Allegiances: None --- HISTORY Ash Wakefield was born May 14, 2000 to parents Linda and Adam in San Jose, California. As unaware of her own nature as anyone else, Ash spent her childhood with little abnormality. Her family was more than well-off due to her father's political career as a US Congressman. Adam was often absent from home, being more dedicated to making things right for his country than for his family. As Ash grew older, her relationship with her father became strained. From a young age, Ash latched onto the counterculture. She rebelled against the authority of both her parents and often skipped out on school. She barely made it through high school but not for a lack of understanding; she excelled at the material. She just didn't care. Around this time, Ash's metahuman abilities began to manifest. Feeling conspicuous, she made extra effort not to stick out like a sore thumb, and turned her act around enough in her senior year to just squeak by with a High School diploma. Ash studied rigorously to sit the entrance exams for the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. She scored well enough to gain a scholarship, and is currently attending her junior year.
