ABILITIES: Physical Enhancement and Shifting
Enhanced Agility - about triple what a peak human athlete could do. This includes reflexes, but mostly just to keep up with her speedier movements.
Enhanced Healing - triple the rate of the average human
Enhanced Speed - about triple as fast as what a peak human athlete could do
Enhanced Strength - roughly double as strong as a peak human athlete. To be more specific, she can lift 1000lbs.
Enhanced Senses - Night vision? Check. Being able to smell blood as fast as a dog could. Hearing? Check, she has the hearing of a dog as well. Sense of taste? That's enhanced too which can be very unfortunate in some cases. Touch? Yup that's enhanced so she can feel changes in the atmosphere. It's roughly double the average person's.
Bloodlust - The ability to boost her power slightly by taking in blood. Basically like blood donor kind of thing.

Bloodlust - The ability to boost her power slightly by taking in blood. Basically like blood donor kind of thing.
Transformation - Can partially or completely transform into the form of a wolf. Form can be that of a normal looking wolf, or it can be long limbs, a large wolf's head, and standing on back feet with large claws. Or, she can just bring out one or two traits of the transformation. Her enhanced stats enhance about x1 furhter when in a shifter form.
SKILLS:
Martial Arts - Trained in a variety of martial arts including Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Karate, and a couple of forms of Tai Chi. She mixes and matches them and has no regard for keeping the arts separate on their own as it doesn't help her in battle.
Weapons Knowledge - Has a pretty good understanding of most common guns, knives, swords and axes. She's kind of a jack of all trades in it.
Hacking - Basic knowledge of hacking. Think enough to hack a traffic light or a laptop with a password. Things she needed in field ops for the contracting company she worked for.
Languages - English, Mandarin, Arabic and a basic understanding of Swahili. Not really fluent in languages other than English, but she can gain a listening understanding of the others and piece together essential sentences if given enough time.
WEAKNESSES: Strength - She might be able to lift 1000lbs, but it won't be for long. Think about ten minutes. If she needs to lift something for longer than that, she can't. And after she does, she needs to rest for at least fifteen minutes.
Taste - If something has an unpleasant taste, it's going to end up amplified for Leyann.
Touch - Enhanced sense of touch isn't particularly useful, and considering it amplified the touch of her body unless she zones it out, it can be a pain in the ass.
Healing - If something is trapped deep enough in a wound, it will stay there. Only things near the surface will be pushed out by the healing factor.
Healing - If something is trapped deep enough in a wound, it will stay there. Only things near the surface will be pushed out by the healing factor.
Transformation - The transformation is painful. It isn't some magical transformation. It means bones cracking and reforming and it takes time. She has ended up with a very high pain tolerance, but if she hasn't got enough energy for it, she can go unconscious during the process. Or block it from her memory, dissociating throughout the process. It also isn't something she can do quickly to defend herself, or in a pinch. She needs time to prepare. And if the form is bigger than she is normally, energy is taken to make her larger, or to shrink her. Also her stats enhancing further in shifter form can result in overwhelming her with information if there's too much going on around her when she finishes shifting. Additionally, if she shifts while clothed her clothes WILL be destroyed in the process. So sometimes she has to take that into account in the process.
Allergy - She has an allergy to silver. It won't kill her, but she'll break out in hives.
Nicotine - She likes a cigarette or vaping once in awhile, often when she's stressed. Sometimes when she doesn't want to show she is.
Appearance
GENERAL: Leyann has shorter hair that can be blonde or black depending on whether she's decided to dye it recently. Her eyes are blue grey and, for the most part, are relaxed but alert. Most of the time, she'll be scanning her surroundings regardless of whether it's safe or not. It's a habit gained from years of having fighting ingrained her being. She has a very muscular build, and can be seen dressed in leather fairly often. Her walk is quick naturally, she doesn't try to be as quick as she naturally is. Leyann is 6'3" tall. Originally she was set to be around 5'9" but with the shifting while she was still growing, the shift back to human form ended up with more bone being integrated into her body and increasing her height. Now that she's hit adulthood, the effect has stopped. But it has still left her very tall.
COSTUME: Her costume is leather primarily. Biker leathers made to be tough but flexible to help her use her enhanced abilities. In warm weather, it's a leather top and vest with shorts or leggings. All black with silver spikes interspersed in places it won't affect her abilities. In cold weather, she switches to leather biker pants and a leather jacket.

Personality
At first glance, you might look at Leyann and see a tough exterior. And she IS tough, undoubtedly. However, underneath is a kind and generous person who will do almost anything within her power to help someone. She knows how it feels to be left in the dark with no-one to lean on, and she wants to help others not have to endure that. She's the type to give you the shirt off her back. As long as it's not her most expensive leathers, that is. There's a limit!
She has the easygoing confidence of someone who's done this a million times before. What is This you ask? Fighting primarily. Social situations are a little bit stickier for her, as she's had less practice with it. And what practice she HAS had was with a bunch of mercenaries in a military company. In social situations, she can get a little nervous. She doesn't like to show that she's nervous though, so she ends up leaning on bad habits in those cases.

History
Leyann was born on Valentine's Day in 1992. She didn't get to know her family, or her parents. She was an experiment by a military contracting company originally based in Adaira. But to make people less suspicious, the company had experimental facilities in other countries. Astaria had one of the places, and they flew under the radar so entirely even Aegis didn't know they were doing things that weren't above board. To most, they were just a successful contracting company that helped with overseas conflicts, donated to charities plenty, and had some medical facilities to treat their employees. What no-one knew was that the medical facilities had hidden basements with experiments.
There was another girl born in 1992, just a month before Leyann. Elison Barker was born and raised in a normal environment. As far as her parents were concerned, she was just their daughter. Their daughter who later on contracted a very rare blood disease. They didn't know this was within expectations for Mackenzie's military contracting company. When they brought her in for check ups, and to try an experimental cure...Leyann received a 'cure' too. There was nothing wrong with the ten year old Leyann other than she hadn't been able to interact with people not involved with the project. She'd been trained in martial arts and anything that could have applications in a military contracting company. When Elison was given her cure, Leyann was given a slightly altered one. Because of her age, it took in her as well as Elison's took in her. Except in Leyann it had a violent reaction. She needed blood transfusions. Elison had some leftover she didn't need from back-up for a surgery, and the people behind the project weren't picky.
And so Leyann ended up with shifter powers, as well as a bloodlust problem from Elison's blood. It wasn't the only blood Leyann received after all, but all the blood she received was from experiments. And so she ended up being a variety case. Mackenzie and the others involved with the project couldn't have been happier. Leyann continued training in martial arts and combat skills. She received secret training in the facility. As far as she knew, she was normal. Her social skills ended up stunted and the company realized this was a bad result. And so when she was sixteen, she was passed off as eighteen and went overseas in military contracting operations. Essentially, the sixteen year old became a mercenary. And it did give her social interaction but that wasn't their intention. Because her stunted social nature was seen as a failure. So they were getting the use of her that they could.
She worked as a merc until she was twenty nine And then she was ordered off the field and assigned the task of teaching a teenager martial arts. She wasn't aware she was training Mackenzie's daughter. All she knew was that she was training a child who had grown up like she had. Leyann felt a mixture of pity and sympathy. She taught martial arts, but also showed the child the kindness she wished she would have experienced.
When Mackenzie found out, she was fired. Entirely. Her 'failure' in teaching his daughter properly was punished in that she was ejected from the company entirely. But was given a serum that lessened the risk of her exposing the projects. It was supposed to wipe her mind. Because of her powers, all it did was make it difficult to talk about the project without extreme pain. As far as the company was concerned, she just knew she worked as a mercenary for them until she was thirty one.

She's trying to gather up her life now and has been for the last year. She's finally decided to join Aegis. To help make up for what she's done in the past, and put some good forward. Because she may have been a mercenary, but what they considered a failure is in fact their greatest success. As Leyann is kind.
