Extraordinary Abilities
Athleticism
After recieving training from fighters such as James Eredas and Tres Ecstuffuan, Gloria is in excellent physical shape. She has incredible endurance and is capable of competing in long distance running competitions on an Olympic level. For her size Gloria is also very strong, capable of benching about 140 and pressing 90 pounds over her head. Her legs are the strongest part of her body allowing her to jump and kick with a tremendous amount of power.
Flexibility
Gloria prides herself on her flexibility. She is capable of extraordinary feats of human contortion, giving her an extra advantage when it comes to slipping out of grapples and focusing in uncomfortable positions.
Special abilities
Psionics
After meeting Tres Ecstuffuan Gloria learned of her innate talent for psionic's. This means that her mind has developed the ability to produce and store a special type of energy that with enough focus and technique could allow her to create supernatural effects. At the start of the day Gloria must engage in a short period of meditation to gather and focus that mental energy intoa state where she can draw from it. This energy can be quantified in terms of power points. If the remaining amount of power points ever hits '0', then Gloria enters a state of 'Psionic Enervation' where her combat effectiveness drops dramatically due to her inability to focus and her lack of physical energy. After a short period of strenuous practice Gloria has developed the ability to utilize psionics with a reasonable amount of focus. Therefore she can manifest powers even when engaged in physical altercation, yet it becomes harder to focus when taking damage. The type of psion Gloria is, is a telekinetic but she has the ability to produce some telepathic and meta-creative powers. Only powers labeled 'immediate' can be used instantaneously with a thought, allowing them to be used in tight situations. Glory may only use powers every other post, unless that power is an immediate power.
Mind Dagger [Standard - 4 points]
Glory can focus her psionic energy into a slim dagger-like blade of pink energy. It's length is about 8 inches and 2.5 inches wide at the base. The blade can cut as well as a steel blade and its cutting power is dependent on the strike that it is used against. However with a hard enough impact Gloria could punch through about a half inch of steel. She can throw it with mentally influenced aiming and can use it block as well. It can take damage and be destroyed, but can be rematerialized at the next behest. If thrown, it will always return to her hand.
Control Object [standard - 1 point (for small object [12 pounds]), 4 points (for large object [12 to 45 pounds]))
Glory can telekinetically displace an inanimate object. The object can be lifted, pushed, pulled and manipulated with jerky and clumsy control for the duration of the post this ability was used in. To use this power Glory must concentrate on the object that she is manipulating which generally leaves her open for attack. The object can move at a maximum speed of 20 feet per post.
Shove [Standard - 3 Points]
Gloria can affect one or more objects or creatures by concentrating her mind upon them and pushing them away with a psychic energy. Gloria can push a man of 250 pounds 15 feet away into a prone position with the force of the push. Gloria can also use her shove ability to push objects with the same amount of force. This push however cannot do any direct damage to the target. The range of this ability is 50 feet in front of Gloria.
Burst [Immediate - 1 points]
This power increases Gloria's movement speed by pushing herself forward (or in another direction) with a telekinetic thrust. It allows her to move at 10 more feet per post than she normally could at her base land speed (which is about that of an average athletic person). This power can be manifested quickly because it doesn't require a lot of focus as to where the energy is being applied. She can also use this ability to displace herself in the air about 10 feet in any single direction (a straight path).
Energy Arc [Standard - 5 points]
Upon manifesting this power, Gloria may fire an arc of focused psionic energy at the opponent. This arc has a width about 5 inches and moves at about the same speed as a thrown baseball pitch (dodgeable but difficult). This focused arc of energy is composed of pure psychokinetic force and can deliver the impact of a right cross from a heavyweight boxer. The Energy Arc has a maximum range of 25 feet.
Control Light [Immediate - 2 points]
Gloria may quickly use her telekinetic powers to bend and control the light to a small extent. She can use this ability for several purposes. While she cannot eradicate the light to create complete darkness, she can both dim and increase the intensity of the ambient light of the fighting area. She can do this to create either an intense light (akin to a strong warehouse lighting) or a low light (akin to a coffee house). She can also bend light to create a burst stream of light to appear just outside of the opponents field of vision to distract them.
Catfall [Immediate - 1 point]
Catfall allows Gloria to soften her landing from a fall with a telekinetic cushion of energy, reducing the overall damage she took from the fall. The power cushions as if Gloria had fallen 10 feet shorter than she actually did. For every additional power point spent for this ability it reduces the damage as if she fell 10 feet shorter.
Boost [Standard - 6 points]
By utilizing her enhanced control of her mind and body, Gloria can enhance her body's abilities to make herself faster, stronger, more resilient, etc. The limits of this ability are as if Gloria had put on 100 more pounds of muscle. She can lift about 300 pounds above her head and lift about 900 up to her waist. These boosts last 3 posts and only one can be active at a time, with a 4 post cooldown between activation.
Crystal Shard [Immediate - 1 point]
Gloria can quickly create a shard of crystal to produce a long range weapon. This ability allows Gloria to produce a one inch wide and 7.5 inch long crystal blade, weighted for throwing. These crystals are created from psychic energy holding ectoplasm snatched from the astral plane in existence. They contain complex crystal matrix's in which psychic energy can be seen pulsating through the lines. These crystals dissipate after two post length's of creation. They are about as sharp and hard as a steel blade while in existence.
Extend Reach [Standard - 2 points]
Gloria can warp the shape of her mind blade and extend its length with the use of telekinetic energy. This extension last for four post after its use, then Gloria must spend a power point every post to keep the extension active. Gloria may extend her weapons reach by a maximum of five feet.
Probability Field [Immediate - 6 points]
Glory can spontaneously create a field of telekinetic turbulence as a defensive (and sometimes offensive) ability. This 6 foot in diameter circle of energy consist of psychokinetic power moving in a wild random array. When this ability is used to block a long range attack it can either cause the attack to be deflected often preventing the attack from hitting with full power, destroying the attack in the maelstrom of energy or it can sometimes reflect the attack back at the opponent. To determine the outcome, Glory roll's a six sided dice before she makes the post. One a one, the probability field reflects the incoming attack back on the opponent, on a two, three, or four the attack is deflected. On a five and six, the attack is defeated by the field and simply blocked. After use, she may not activate another Field for 3 posts.
Equipment
Ka-Bar
The Ka-Bar knife is a knife that is used extensively throughout military forces over gaia. It is known for its balance and effectiveness as a combat and utility knife. The Ka-Bar is a carbon steel knife. The knife has a high carbon content making it black. The handle is a leather wrapped brown hilt. The knife weighs .68 pounds. The blade is 7 inches long while the overall length of the weapon is 11 and 7/8 inches. The blades are balanced so that they can be thrown accurately. The knife is kept in her boot pocket.
Normal Clothes
Gloria values her ability to move, dodge and weave over heavy armor. So normally she simply wears average clothing (who's style depends on the day) that adds no extra protection.
