ABILITIES: Probability Manipulation
You know in video games where you think about doing an action and you get a percentage of chance of it working? Felicity's probability manipulation works kind of like that. She considers doing something, it gives her a percentage of success, and if her powers are working properly she can manipulate probability up. Or down, if it's the chance of someone else's action.
Dice Throw - She technically has access to teleportation and super speed courtesy of her parents. The teleportation teleports her to wherever she thinks of. The superspeed is like 'blurs her out' level. But she calls her access to both of them the Dice Throw. This is because when she goes to use either of them, it is 50/50 chances which she gets to use. And there's no upping that percentage.
Seeing the percentages allows her to see how well she's doing at any given action as well, or how good someone else is at it. Or their sheer dumb luck.
SKILLS:
- sewing
- martial arts
- boxing
- stunt driving
WEAKNESSES: The amount of percentage she has depends on how good she is at the action. Practice makes perfect...or a much higher percentage. In the case of lowering someone else's probability of a successful action, it goes against how often they've done the thing, but also their sheer dumb luck.
Of course another big weakness is the fact that her Dice Throw ability is 50/50 static. There's a chance she'll need teleportation and she'll get superspeed or vice versa.

Appearance
GENERAL: Felicity has black hair and greenish brown eyes. She's five foot eight inches tall without heels on. Which happens because she doesn't necessarily want to take the chance of having to use her superspeed in high heels. That's not to say she doesn't wear them because she does. She knows she looks good in them, and wears them with jeans a fair bit. She enjoys all sorts of fashion, from t-shirts to crop tops to dresses depending on the occasion and how she feels.
COSTUME: You know that classic fitted costume for Quicksilver? The one with the lighning bolt on the shoulder? Yeah she actually went for that in silver and green. Silver lightning bolt, green suit. Another lightning bolt around her waist, and another one twisting around one of her legs. In each silver lightning bolt there's a very small shiny green dice. It's a little extra, but she pulls it off. It's topped with old type motorcycle goggles over her eyes. Currently tinted though, to help protect her identity. And the boots are combat boots. In silver. No idea where she found them. She tops it with a green ball cap and her hair in a ponytail threaded through the back of it.

Personality
Felicity is a really sweet person. To the point where people wonder if they've just met the embodiment of sunshine. Beyond that surface though, she's slower to trust people with details. She's a good judge of character, but she takes time to figure out if you'll always be a good person or not. If you manage to get in her good graces though, Felicity is a forever fast friend. She's motivated by loyalty, her drive to be somebody, and her drive to be somebody kind.
In any friend group she's in, she would be the mom friend. She will comfort you when you're sad, tell you that the guy who dumped you didn't deserve you etc etc. But she can also be a bit of a wild child sometimes, especially if you get her behind the wheel of a car. You'd think with her stunt driving she'd be a wild driver, but she's only like that if she needs to be or if she's on a track. Otherwise she is a responsible driver and doesn't even SPEED.

History
Felicity was born to two powered parents. One had teleportation, and the other had super speed. You might think they were heroes. While they had a strong sense of wrong and right, they didn't hero. They tried to get into Aegis and it didn't end up working out for some reason or another. They assumed they just weren't brave enough, or well enough equipped. They were fine with it, and they opened up a delivery company instead. It was pretty successful, and they were happy with the work.
When Felicity's powers started to show up at age five, they weren't exactly sure what they had on their hands. They weren't professionals. One day their little girl was breaking her arm by falling while playing in a mud puddle and the next day she was getting a delivery mistake for a wedding cake to her house. It was...odd, they knew that much. Gradually, they managed to get her to tell them more about what was happening. They also found someone in the city of Astaria who knew more about powers. They weren't Aegis, but they helped Felicity figure out her powers.
When she was in high school, Felicity was pretty popular. With the guys anyways. Teenage boys have a habit of seeing a pretty girl and wanting to be with her, so she had that popularity. It didn't hurt she had a sunshine personality. She was kind to most people, even if she was a loner a lot of the time. The unfortunate part of all this is that she was the opposite of popular with the girls of her high school. Some of them resented the attention she got from the boys. Some thought she was faking the kindness and her personality. Some compared themselves to her, and were just plain jealous. It wasn't a good situation and she got some...shall we say, bad attention from the girls of her high school. She took to hiding in the library a lot. And while all that stress was happening, a new aspect of her powerset showed up. Dice Throw. While it allowed her to escape a couple of times without her registering what was happening, it was very unpredictable. Finally, when she was bullied more intensely, it landed her at the doorstep of her powers tutor with teleportation. He figured out what had been happening by how haggard she looked. That and the paint smeared all over her clothes when she didn't take art anymore. When Felicity was sixteen, she was given the option to study from home. She took the chance, and studied hard. She graduated at seventeen, and since she was a distance learning student still through the same school, she went to the graduation. And got to see the faces of her former classmates.
Nothing she went through has made her any less kind to people. She's just more careful before trusting them completely.
As an adult, she's worked at a few jobs. Mostly she takes shifts at her parents' delivery company. However she's also been known to design fashion, teach boxing, and tutor kids. She's even stunt drove, but she mostly likes to do that for fun. She's still deciding what she wants to do as a career, although she has some good options even without going back for secondary education. She thinks she might go to university though. Hasn't decided what for, but she's pretty smart all around.
