Trish Baker - Terawatt... -SC

Alias: Terawatt
Character Name: Patricia "Trish" Baker
Character Age: 26
Sex: Female
Occupation: Metermaid (but wishes to be a Police Officer)

Super Power(s): Can produce streams of electricity from minor currents (such as a static shock) to a decent sized bolt of lightning from her hands. Has high amounts of energy/stamina and can exert herself further than normal humans.

Weakness(es): Though Trish has an abundance of energy to spend on stamina and bolts, it is limited and she can only use a few large bolts before completely drained. Once drained, she is out... literally... going into an almost comatose state until she's able to "recharge". Trish has the physical strength of an athletic woman, but is still vulnerable to physical attacks like any normal human. Because she exerts small amounts of electricity on a constant basis, if in contact with metal or standing water for a long period of time, she will start to become physically drained.

Personality: Stubborn/strong-willed, blunt/direct/sharp, takes things literally, meticulous/detail oriented, honest/geniune, nosy

A Brief History: Born into a long line of law enforcement, Patricia wanted to become a Policeman just like her father. The middle child of three, with an older brother and younger sister, Trish had always worked hard to gain her father's attention. Her older brother, John, was favored and taught the ropes proudly while Trish being a girl was not allowed. But she had come by the stubbornness of her mother honestly, and, unknown to anyone, had trained secretly in running, weights, and how to handle a firearm.

Shortly after her brother had become an Officer, he discovered her training, and their father had forbid her from doing such things again. She was constantly compared to her younger sister, Susanne who was "the model girl"... having numerous suitors and seeking to become a seamstress. Patricia, on the other hand, was wild and had on a number of occasions socked boys in the mouth without reservation. Generally speaking, she hated the idea of being a "damsel-in-distress" when she knew very well she could do the saving. "Why wait for a knight in shining armor to show up to save the say when I can take care of it right here and now?"

Though there were still protests from her family, Trish had still wanted to become a Policeman... to protect and serve her community. However, when she applied, she was denied acceptance and was instead assigned to Metermaid patrol, as women were not allowed to be official officers.

Unhappy with her orders, she grumbled about fulfilling her Metermaid duties. When one day, she had stumbled upon something suspicious. Hoping to prove her worth to the department, she had tailed a known criminal and came upon a device that was to be used to obliterate the city with a mass amount of energy. When the device was engaged and began to countdown, Trish had done her best to destroy it... but in the process, she took out a whole city block in the blast and was hospitalized for months. In her hospital bed, she began to notice that certain things were "different".
