Alias: DuskCostume Description: Navy-SEALS grade armor, shrouded in a deep maroon cloak. Her mask is plain and the same color. The outfit looks is purposely anonymous, to help her remain hidden even if she is spotted. It's also gender-neutral for this same purpose. (No Fanservice here!)
Powers/Mutations/etc: Invisibility: Can turn herself, and any objects on her person, completely invisible.
Laser-Like Precision: Incredibly perceptive, when fully utilizing this ability, she can shoot someone half a mile away with a handgun.
Night-Vision: Can see perfectly in total darkness.
Regeneration: Can recover all damage, disease, and trauma.
Weaknesses:
Energy Expenditure: The more usage she gets out of her powers, the more energy she must expend. For example, she can become invisible and incredibly precise simultaneously, but it would take a lot out of her. If her powers are overused in a short time without a break, she can become exhausted, or even pass out.
Immobility: The higher she makes her precision, the slower she becomes.
Light Sensitivity: Her eyes are sensitive to direct light, so she has taken to wearing powerful sunglasses.
Equilibrium: She can only regenerate by causing as much harm as she has received. For example, if her foot is broken, she must break someone else's foot or hand or more, to be able to regenerate her wound. She could hypothetically cure herself of any disease, but only if she managed to somehow infect someone else with a similar disease.
Alignment: True Neutral
Origin Story: It was supposed to be just another regular investigation for Acadise. A dangerous cult was based in an abandoned mining facility, renovated into what its followers dubbed the 'Temple of Sanctity'. Acadise went in under the cover of a new recruit. A high-ranking minister of the temple, known simply as the 'Translator', told her that she was one of the blessed ones who had come to unlock her true potential. He offered her a scroll, and inside was a series of letters she had never seen before, but even though she didn't understand the text, she felt something strange occur inside of her.
Acadise immediately subdued and arrested the 'Translator', and chased after the other members of the cult, but they all were able to flee the scene before she could catch her and the police could arrive. When she went back outside, the desert sun, which she had become accustomed to, blinded her. After getting a pair of sunglasses, Acadise assumed this to be a temporary effect of being in the dark temple for so long, but it never left. Later, at a police shooting range, Acadise managed to achieve local records of unprecedented accuracy. With the realization that she had been going through changes since the temple raid, she met with the Translator in his prison cell. He managed to explain to her, through cryptic and archaic speech, that the scroll he presented her with was prophesied to give powers to a figure that fit her exact description.
Acadise turned to her friend Marcus, who used his military knowledge and ties to outfit her with training and equipment required to hone her new abilities.
Acadise is not trying to accomplish any heroic goals, like saving Earth or ending evil, or villainy, like taking over the country. All that matters to her is keeping the ones close to her safe and protected.
