Often this occurs with bluish, hovering picture frames that only Spirit can see. When Spirit needs many tools, she finds her body changing to form them or the air forming to help accomplish the task. Since she's found out about her new powers she's never had to buy any new clothes either, as she easily creates and removes clothing out thin air and her own body.Powers: Alternate Form (Gaseous) 2 [10pp] - Insubstantial 2    Spirit is able to turn her entire body into a bluish gas that easily flows through the tiniest of openings. Comprehend (Speak/Read/Understand Any Language, Speak/Understand Machines) 6 [12pp]    Phantom translations appear to Spirit of all written communications written in a pale blue glowing script that hovers over the text whenever she can't understand something. Similarly, Spirit hears a cold voice translating any spoken language she doesn't understand, while the same voice deftly translates Spirit's voice to any language she desires.Elemental (Air) Control 5 [14pp] (Precise)- AP Blast 5  - AP Suffocate 2 (+ 1 cloud) - AP Force Field ? (-1 Physical Only)    Spirit's command over the air is somewhat limited, but she can easily utilize the air around her to ward off physical attacks, pull the air out of someone's lungs, or blast someone.Enhanced Dexterity 16 [16pp]    Spirit isn't quite a physical body anymore, and so she moves herself with the speed of thought, allowing great agility.    Flight 8 [16pp]- AP Enhanced Strength 10 LINKED Super Strength 6    Spirit can fly at extreme speeds, but when she's not airborne she can utilize that same power to express great strength and lift heavy objects.Immunity (Life Support, Age, Sleep, starvation & thirst, electricity) [17pp]    Spirit has been freed from most of the most onerous weaknesses of the flesh and also finds no great difficulty enduring even the most extravagant of sources of electricity.Morph (humanoids) 2 [2pp]    Her flesh remade, it continues to allow Spirit to remake it. This is doubly disconcerting to Jessica, because it's very like changing her outfit for her - a thought that disturbs her because it suggests that she's "not really here." Strike 5 (wind strike) [6pp] (Accurate)    Using her command over her body's consistency and her command over gases, Spirit can throw a punch with all the force of a gale force wind directed with lethal accuracy.Super Senses (Danger Sense, Infravision, Radio, Time Sense, Ultra-Hearing, All Senses At Radius, Life Sense: Allows Spirit to "see" details about lifesigns by sight (Acute, Accurate, ranged)) [13pp]    Spirit's insane senses are what first tipped her off about her new status, and it's easy to see why. Spirit's new form makes her aware of an incredible array of trivia about her environment. Threats to her being, the ability to shift her perception around in all directions, the ability to tune into high frequency sounds and see the amorphous shapes of heat signatures are nothing though; compared with her new "life sense" which allows her to instantly perceive living beings and compare their "vital signs" as accurately as she can tell different colors from one another.Combat: +3 Atk, +3 DefSaves: Toughness +4 [1pp] , Fortitude +3, Reflex +12, Will +3 [1pp]Drawbacks: Disability: No Identity (Uncommon, Minor) [-1pp]    Jessica Lane is presumed dead and/or missing in Europe. In any case, several police agencies would be very interested in talking to Jessica about her also missing friend if she were to suddenly turn up in the United States. Disability: Penniless (Uncommon, Minor) [-1pp]        Spirit has a wealth score of 0. This would have more of an impact, except she doesn't need to sleep or eat so she can avoid most basic necessities. It does mean that something as simple as going to see a movie requires Spirit to break the law.26 Abilities + 12 Skills (48 Ranks) + 9 Feats + 106 Powers + 12 Combat + 2 Saves  – 2 Drawbacks  = 165Identity: Hero OnlyGender: Female Height: 6'2 Weight: 165 Hair: Platinum Blonde Eyes: BlueOrigin: Jessica Lane was once a mousy, somewhat frumpy woman slowly advancing toward middle age and spinsterhood when she won a vacation to Europe. Simply put the vacation was life-changing even before came upon her mysterious abilities, but her trip became more fundamentally evolving when she decided to take a weekend rock climbing hike with a friend in the Alps. Wandering far off the beaten path, the pair of rock climbers were stranded in a sudden snowstorm when her friend injured herself. Jessica left to seek help, but soon became lost herself until she found a mysterious cave to seek refuge in. There inside she found bizarre glyphs and writings, and a glowing blue sphere made of a strange golden metal. Unable to resist the urge to touch the sphere, Jessica's life was thrown out of kilter ever since. She awoke at home, wearing an appearance that was not her own nearly a year later in her apartment, which was being shown to new renters.Wandering the streets confused, Jessica suddenly found herself in a wash of new information and senses thanks to her powers. Even as she was nearly overwhelmed by the new sensations, a black van pulled up and goons with high-tech weaponry and strange religious symbols attacked her. Despite being more than a match for the attackers, there was much collateral damage from the attack. Jessica was despondent and pledged to somehow make up it.****Theme: Basically Spirit is an elemental controller now instead of a paragon. I ditched the magic bits entirely and went instead for a sort of techno-organic/new Blue Beetle edge to her along with a new background. I find the new version a lot more interesting, but it's really costly and I'm a bit stumped on where to trim (as well as STILL a lot lost in the whole PL limits bits).  Review/comments anyone?</blockquote>
