Reputation
Dead Girl is a relative unknown in most circles. In mystic circles she's better known- afterall, she is among the most naturally talented and powerful Necromantic/kinetic individuals in existence. She doesn't seem particularly interested in most worldly things and her true desires and goals are unknown.
Biography
Dead Girl was born as Moonbeam (no last name) to a pair of truly hippie survivors in a California commune not far from Berkeley California. Her early life was good, for the most part, her parents love her and treat her well. She's raised in an open and loving community.
Her teen years are more wild- although not because of anything specific to her situation. She just really goes out and enjoys her life- moving out and to the East Coast when she's 18. Over the next year her star begins to rise and shine, getting work in music videos, and a few indie films, as well as a job on an off broadway play.
Jealousy though, is what kills Moonbeam. She's murdered in a hotel room by her then boyfriend- a fellow actor who just never got anything going. A fight, and then a stabbing followed by a less than permanent death. On her dying, her Mutant X-Gene is activated, creating a creature unique, albeit one without control of her body. She watches as she's dumped and the man who killed her gets away with murder. At first, at least.
It took a couple of months for Dead Girl to get the hang of her new existence. A few months in the grave. Sitting. Dead. Thinking. It almost drove her crazy- almost.
Dead Girl figured out how to use her abilities. She went after her former boyfriend and tore him to shreds- self-defense after the fact- and now she roams the world figuring out the condition of Death and learning more everyday.
As Dead Girl comes into play she is in a place where she has not decided, yet, what to do with herself. She exists, and little more, still seeking a purpose.
Character Details
Dead Girl is a surprisingly happy woman for someone who is dead. She seems to be enjoying her jaunt into immortality. Her attitude, generally, is happy-go-lucky and she is very much set on 'doing her thing'. She can be deathly serious when it comes to the Dead and sees herself as a champion of those individuals who've passed on.
Death Becomes Her |
Dead Girl is Dead. Literally a corpse. She died, and her body has all those little aspects that death bring. She no longer has any need for food, or sleep, or any physical thing. She is beyond mortality- immortal in the truest sense. You can only die once, after all. She is a natural font of death, a result of a unique mutation. Dead Girl can operate without rest, without food or water, without any external thing at all and survive quite happily. She will continue existing forever, unless somehow destroyed. Finally, she is wholly unaffected by toxins, or anything else that requires a living body or life-force to affect. She has neither. |
Necromantic-kinetic |
Dead Girl is among the most naturally talented and powerful Necromancers in existence. This is because she is also Necrokinetic and can natively communicate with the very stuff of death and decay- bacteria, insects, cells, and even dead flesh itself. This ability extends into the spiritual- allowing the sensing and speaking to the dead spirits of the world. Furthermore, it is this ability that allows Dead Girl to control her own- and other- bodies. It's how she keeps her form moving and under control- she can even control her body if it is cut into pieces, such as losing an arm. Finally, Dead Girl can use this ability to 'call up' the dead into the minds of the living- a frightening and terrible experience for anyone she uses this on. |
Regeneration |
Dead Girl is able to regenerate herself from even a few bones. This regeneration is nearly instant- taking only a few moments. |
Ghost Form |
Dead Girl exists in a state between the Astral and Material planes. She is able to 'shunt' herself into either realm at will. When in the Astral she is able to fly (at her land speeds) and pass through walls in the Material plane. She can pass through any normal substance, and only exotic substances that could otherwise block Astral travel can stop her. As a result of existing in both realms she is able to see into both realms simultaneously, however, she can only physically interact with the realm she's currently 'shunted' herself into. |
Claws |
Dead Girl is able to grow her fingernails at will into razor sharp claws. These claws are strong enough to cut mild steel, but would have trouble with anything tougher and would be wholly useless against exotic or special materials. (IE: Adamantium, et al.) |
Physicality |
Dead Girl is stronger, faster, and more agile than a baseline human. She's about to lift about 1 ton. She can run just a little quicker than an Olympic sprinter, and is just a touch more agile as a top-level Olympic gymnast or acrobat. |
Dead Brain |
Physically, Dead Girl's brain is dead tissue. This can make certain psychic and mind-control abilities less effective. Communicating with Dead Girl's brain in a physical sense is outright impossible, however, magical or non-biological methods are just as effective as they normally would be on a girl who's got the willpower to drag the dead out from heaven or hell at a whim.
|
Acting |
Dead Girl is a talented actress. She can really sell it- before her untimely death she was an aspiring actress with several opportunities opening up for her. She's a natural at this, and can be quite believable when she wants or needs to be. |
Ghost Knowledge |
Dead Girl has access, and can communicate with ghosts. She's gotten a sense of how the dead do their business and can give people information based on this. |
Music |
Dead Girl is a talented musician. She plays the guitar, both standard and bass. |
Dead |
Dead Girl is Dead. Most human beings in modern America aren't as familiar with death as they have been in the past. Very few have seen a dead body as it appears without makeup and 'work' done by a funeral home. Dead Girl hits a primordial nerve in a great number of people. Her presence makes them uncomfortable, her very existence a reminder that death is just around the corner. Furthermore, the nature of her abilities makes her a 'hot spot' of death energies, albeit a somewhat 'natural' one. She can be sensed by those things that sense death- like a lantern flame for undead moths.
|
Ghost Magnet |
Dead Girl can see and communicate with the dead. The abilitiy works both ways. Ghosts are always quick to try and get her attention, even if she can cause trouble for them. They hang around her, talk to her, annoy her. It can make her seem crazy as she talks to random ghosts who've been hanging out around her. |
Legally Deceased |
Being *LEGALLY* dead can be an issue. Legally, speaking. Dead Girl was murdered, her murder remained unsolved- there is an open case about this corpse that's walking around. Property rights get muddy when you're dead, you certainly can't have a bank account, and the question of general rights gets pretty muddy, too. Over all, it's a bit of a thing that might get in Dead Girl's way. |
