Quoted!
The fabulous Ms. Marvel, Protector of Jersey City! Ms. Marvel has been seen more than once righting the wrongs of somewhere other than New York or Metropolis. She's been expanding her sphere of influence, apparently, as far as Princeton and the Big Apple itself.
Reputation
Ms. Marvel is known as being a Good Guy. Young, yes. New, yes. Not yet on any big superhero teams or anything like that, for sure. Her rep has fluctuated after the usual sorts of misunderstandings that always happen, but on the whole she's thought of positively.
Kamala herself, aka SlothBaby on her fanfic websites, is known as being a Jersey City girl through and through—and a HUGE nerd and fanfic writer who never misses Raid Night without a really good reason.
Biography
Kamala's parents, Yusuf and Muneeba, are Pakistani immigrants, hardworking and somewhat conservative. Muneeba is a housewife, while Yusuf works in a bank. They have one son older than Kamala: Aamir, a tall and sober young man who takes his culture and religion very seriously. They came to America to ensure a better life for the children they had here, and their hopes were like many other immigrant parents: that their children would grow up with the best of both worlds, remembering and honoring their culture while benefiting from the graeter opportunities afforded to them in America.
Kamala is indeed a strong mix of two worlds, though she worries she isn't quite what they hoped for. She's bright and cheerful, a HUGE nerd and undeniable Millennial who still holds to many of her parents' cultural traditions. A practicing but not immensely devout Muslim, she tried for some time to be a part of the mainstream community but gave up when she realized she didn't fit in.
It was not long after that that Kamala was exposed to the terrigen mists. In her cocoon, she dreamed that she was talking to Captain Marvel, one of her greatest idols. When she awoke, she was Captain Marvel—at least in shape and in costume. She soon discovered that she had the power to change her shape, to stretch larger and shrink smaller, and to heal quickly from injuries. Given her fixation on and adoration of superheroes, it can be no great surprise that she decided to join their numbers with these new abilities.
It hasn't always been perfect. She's had to balance superheroics with real life, school, andnowcollege. Her family supports her, but they don't know everything she does, and she worries intensely about her place in the world and how she can make it better.
Character Details
Optimistic. Cheerful. Kind. …Also a little jealous and grumpy and immature sometimes, too. Kamala wears her heart on her sleeve and is unabashedly, unashamedly enthusiastic. Bright and slightly hyperactive, she can get a little overwhelmed and overtalkative when she's, say, faced with one of her major heroes.
Morphogenetics |
Kamala can shape herself into pretty much any shape she can imagine. She could turn her fists into cubes if she really wanted to, or make herself a bouncy ball, or otherwise expand and compress every part of herself. She can make herself as tall as a building or as small as a little green Army man. |
Fast Healing |
Bullet wounds, stabs, and so forth? Not a problem: Kamala can heal those quickly. A great deal of damage over time, however, will exhaust her, and she has to revert to her actual form in order to heal at all. If she has to heal too much damage, she'll be both exhausted and ravenous. |
Glowy |
When Kamala uses her powersspecifically her shapeshifting powersshe glows bright yellow. |
Impersonation |
Not only can Kamala change into weird and unnatural shapes, she can also change her form to match pretty much anything she sees. She can look like a lamppost or a cat or Captain America, even down to mimicking their voices. Maybe not the voice of a lamppost, though. |
Stretchy Suit |
Kamala's best friend created a polymer that makes her super suit mold with her. She doesn't have to worry so much, therefore, about concentrating on making her clothing morph with her. However, water can degrade the polymer, so she needs to avoid it when in costume. |
Compartment Bracelet |
Kamala's banglesnow combined into a single bracelet she wears on her left armwere passed down from her great-grandmother. They contain several compartments inside, large enough to hold her phone and other small items. |
Family |
Even though she has conflict with them sometimesand even though they don't know everything about what she does at nightKamala can always rely on her parents for love and support. They don't always approve of everything she does, but they are very close and full of love and support. |
Leadership |
Kamala is a natural-born leader. Her optimism doesn't tend to come off as naivete or mindless positivity—she really IS positive and believes in the best qualities of the people around her. She's even managed to get a bunch of disaffected teenagers to set their Olympic-level apathy aside and come together for a common cause. |
Minority |
There's no getting around it: Kamala is a Pakistani-American Muslim girl, which is not always the safest thing to be. People make assumptions. People are jerks, even without meaning to beand sometimes they mean to be. With a traditional family and, in particular, a devoutly religious brother, Kamala has had to deal with a lot of crap for being who she iseven outside the costume. |
Emps |
Apart from the aforesaid issues with her healing factor, Kamala's powers are vulnerable to electromagnetic pulses. They can weaken her elasticity and give her serious issues when trying to use any of her powers. |
Family |
Kamala loves her family dearly, but they don't know much about what she does. They certainly don't know that she's Ms. Marvel, not yet. Anyone trying to get at Kamala could certainly go through them—if they knew who she was, at least. |
