SL Username:jennica.andel
SL Display Name:Tessa Monet
Character Name:Coco Shay
Age:18
Race:Genetically Modified Human
Origin: Segata City, Brandia, (A space colony of a paralell dimension Earth)
Occupation: Musician, "All-Purpose Freelancer"
Affiliation: N/A


Personality: Coco Shay usually appears both laid-back and energetic, with very few inhibitions about speaking her mind along with a significant disregard for traditional standards of decency when it comes to topics of a sexual nature. This has given her the rather widespread reputation of being a shameless pervert. She is also quite a thrill-seeker, and is almost always ready to show off her strength and skill, sometimes to the point of foolishly letting her bravado lead her to her own detriment. She also tends to be distrusting of figures of authority and doesn't always treat them with the most respect. Those who use power and authority to oppress or cruelly dominate others quickly make it to the top of her list of enemies.

Despite her crass demeanor, her heart is usually in the right place, and she has several hidden depths, as she has an emotional, contemplative and philosophical side hidden behind her tough outer shell. She generally tries to make friends with most new people she meets unless they show hostility first. She also does her best to resolve conflicts when they come up, and stands up for those who are disadvantaged whenever she has the chance, and often seeks to cheer up the downtrodden and depressed.

Combat Abilities:

• Mass Shifting
  Coco Shay's body is made of an amorphous, clay-like substance, which allows her to shift her size and shape at will, such as increasing the size of various body parts or changing parts of her body into rudimentary weapons (If you've ever played the game 'Battletoads', imagine something similar to that.). She can increase the density of her body, allowing her to achieve a maximum level of rigidity similar to that of kevlar, all the way down to a near pudding-like viscosity. It should be noted that she cannot create bladed implements of any practical sharpness from her body, nor can she create complex machines like guns or chainsaws.
  
  
• Absorption
  Coco Shay can increase the mass of her own body by absorbing other biological material, whether through simply eating or absorbing things directly into her body. She can only increase in mass equal to what she absorbs, so simply eating a burger wouldn't allow her to double in size or anything of a similarly implausible nature.
  
  
• Fusion/Contact Shapeshifting
  Coco Shay is able to use her absorbtion power to fuse with other people and living things, giving the finished fusion a twofold boost in power and ability. She can also partially fuse with an individual, causing the two to become 'conjoined' rather than fully merged, and in both methods, the two become morphable much like Coco's main body. It should be noted that this cannot not harm the person who Coco fuses with in any way, and in fact can only be maintained if both parties are in perfect sync. If a person struggles, Coco will not be able to merge with them in any significant fashion, and the other person will easily be able to escape from her body. Any still-living creatures absorbed by Coco are returned to the state they were in before they were absorbed once they break the fusion, and their ability to share Coco's shapeshifting powers only last while she is in direct contact with them.
  
  
• Enhanced Strength
  Due to her physical makeup, Coco Shay is stronger than the average human, able to lift up to 500 LBS with the amount of effort it would take an ordinary human to lift about 30. This number can increase up to a thousand if she absorbs enough mass and channels it into her arms. It should be noted that her legs are the strongest parts of her body.
  
  
• Regeneration
  Coco's amorphous nature allows her to regenerate from wounds faster than most. She can still be injured, especially by certain substances (detailed in weaknesses), but is much more durable than an ordinary human. In order for her regeneration powers to work, she must transfer mass from elsewhere in her body to repair the damage, which will cause her to steadily weaken overall with the more damage she takes. For example, if she suffers a serious injury, such as the loss of a limb, she'll need to either reabsorb the limb or eat the equivalent amount of mass to regenerate it.
  
  
• Summoned Weapon: "Iron Latrice"
  Coco Shay has learned quite a bit of engineering from her scientist father, and created a powerful hammer known as "Iron Latrice" out of a mysterious crystal mined from an asteroid and various alloys. The hammer is extremely heavy, but thanks to the electromagnetic and gravitational properties of the crystal, it adjusts itself based on the strength of the weilder and feels very lightweight to carry. It is usually stored in a pocket-sized containment unit that converts the entire structure into data, which allows Coco to summon the hammer at will. The hammer has the ability to create long-range energy-shockwaves when struck against the ground (much like Gutsman's hammer in Megaman Battle Network). Attacks from the hammer do moderate damage.
  

Combat weaknesses:

• Extreme Temperatures
  Coco tends to have difficulty controlling her abilities in extreme temperatures. High levels of heat cause her to literally begin melting, which significantly weakens her and makes it difficult to keep her solid form. Extreme cold causes her body to solidify, making her unable to morph.
  
  
• Fire
  Like most... Things that exist, Coco is vulnerable to fire. Not only does it cause her to soften and even melt when she comes too close to it, but getting burned directly with flames can char her otherwise viscous flesh to a hardened crisp, preventing her from being able to do much with it other than shed it and leave it behind, which would require her to spend a significant amount of mass and energy repairing what damage was done. [Takes +1 tier of damage from fire]
  
  
• Bee Stings
  Even before she got her powers, Coco has been severely allergic to bee stings. A single sting can cause her to have difficulty breathing and break out in swollen lumps, and compounded with her transformation powers, which her allergy interferes with, she could quickly become a writhing, "Akira"-like blob until she either gets medicine or the effects wear off.
  
  
• Corrosive Chemicals
  If you absolutely, positively, have to do some serious damage to Coco Shay, corrosive chemicals, such as industrial acids like hydrochloric acid and powerful bases like lye, ammonia and even bleach can severely injure her if she comes into contact with it, even more so than most humans. Raw lye in particular is to Coco what Kryptonite is to Superman, and can burn holes straight through her body with a single splash. This is without even considering what sort of deadly, outlandish acids may be secreted by monsters, aliens or other such beings, which will also be just as effective, if not more so. It should be noted that this does NOT apply with ordinary soap or anything that isn't strong enough to cause burns to a normal human. [Takes +2 tiers of damage from corrosive chemicals]
  

Character Backstory:

In a paralell dimension, a sudden boom in technological progress occurred among the people of earth due to the discovery of a deactivated alien android that suddenly crash-landed in the middle of nowhere many years ago. This android, which was called "The Boy" due to its similar appearance to a young human male, was studied extensively by scientists, who used the technology found within it to quickly develop new technologies that brought humanity into a new space age, with colonies surrounding the planet earth and nations forming within them.

It wasn't long, however, before this prosperity gave way to tragedy. A dispute over the ownership of "The Boy" began, which soon led the orbital colonies of Brandia and Monicia to war over the android after decades of hostility between the two came to their logical conclusion.

Coco Shay, a resident of Brandia, never gave much attention to the war until the day both of her parents became bitterly divided over the issue. Her father, a native Brandian, believed his colony should keep the android, while her mother, who came from Monicia, wanted it for her homeland. Eventually, the political turmoil of the world around them tore their relationship apart, and Coco, having grown weary of having to deal with the conflict in her own home, ended up running off and emancipating herself at the age of 16.

Around that time, she started doing her best to make money however she could, and by 17, she started a band, though she didn't gain the amount of fame and recognition that she would have hoped to get from her musical endeavors at the time.

The war suddenly took an unexpected turn as, suddenly, a mysterious being known as the "Carbon Queen" suddenly appeared from the depths of space along with her armies of shapeshifting "liquid metal" warriors and stole the android for herself, abducting residents from the colonies and the earth in the process, with Coco and her best friend Kasumi Sendo among the captives.

Coco realized she had to escape from the Queen's ship as soon as possible. In an attempt to evade security, she ended up in one of the maintenance areas of the ship. She soon discovered that this was where the shapeshifting beings that fought for the Queen were being mass-produced. She eventually was shoved into one of the devices that enhanced the biological proto-forms of the soldiers with their shapeshifting abilities, as the machine mistook her for one. It disentegrated her clothes and kept all biologically-derived material in the machine, including the candy bar she had in her pocket when she was abducted.

The machine turned on, and, in addition to giving Coco the same powers as the aliens who abducted her, also, curiously merged her body with the essence of the chocolate. She used her newfound powers to escape from the ship, along with many of the other prisoners. Though she didn't retrieve the "Boy" android, just escaping with her life and her best friend was enough.

About a year later, Coco Shay decided to travel through the cosmos with a ship she won in a bet with a space pirate. Her latest excursion has led her to the city of Hajime... Who knows what kind of adventure awaits her in this new city?

Wonderful job thus far! There's just two things you should add, in my opinion.

For her fire weakness add "[Takes +1 tier of damage from Fire]" to the end of it, meaning that if she would take Minor damage from fire, it will be a moderate instead, a moderate attack hits her for a heavy, etc.

For Acids and Basses with how potent it is at [Takes +2 tiers of damage from acidic and based chemicals] meaning a minor would do a heavy instead. Yes this seems like a lot of damage but no one really uses chemicals in fights. AND it helps balance everything else from the character pretty damn well. ♥
