Excelsior! + Question
in reply to a message by mcts
Question: What/where is the congrats set? I'm currently assuming it's set in the USA, present-day-ish, and save for the presence of superheroes, mostly similar to real life. Somewhat like an Earth 616 analogue. If that is not the case, I shall edit the post.
Name: Velvela Anya Vang, alias Veritas
Age: 20
Appearance: Near-black, long, wavy hair; similar-coloured eyes. Skin colour borders on swarthy, slight, lithe body. She likes to wear a half-smirk on her face, twisting only the left side of her lips for a smile.
Power(s): Telepathy and telekinesis; it seems, so far, that she is a born mutant, although Velvela had just finally learned to control and develop her powers better as a teenager.Backstory: Velvela Vang was born as the only child to a happy Yiddish couple living in New York. When she was a child, it transpired to her parents, Dovid and Anya, that their daughter was, in fact, a mutant. As little Velvela grew up, it became apparent that unlike her family, not everyone in the world is happy about the presence of "superhumans" in their midst. She was twelve when she discovered she could lift objects without touching them; fourteen when she learnt to send telepathic messages to other people's minds; fifteen when she discovered she could read minds. Throughout her teenage years, Velvela never disclosed to others that she was a mutant, all the while secretly practising and honing her abilities in the safety of her home.With her parents' blessing, at the age of eighteen she took up her dream and designed a superhero alter-ego known as Veritas, a force of truth in the city. She would frequently go out under this identity and use her powers to tackle criminals off the streets without attracting much media attention to herself. Meanwhile, Velvela Vang's friends knew her simply as another cheerful, devout fellow student, striving to earn her degree in the arts and become a teacher.
