[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 2880094, member: 4936"] Here's a concept I've been tossing around. Create Object and perhaps Force Field as main powers, edging into just about anything imaginable as her ability increases. Maybe even Nemesis... The nifty part is that the "powers" would/should be built as devices...though not bought with the Devices limit since losing hold of it wouldn't be more than a momentary nuisence... Lemme know whatcha think! [sblock=Genesis]Even from the beginning Genevieve Walker had been something of a terror. She'd had a child's inexhaustible curiosity and breathtaking insensitivity to danger, and it had been focused then as now into determining how things worked. The Walkers quickly learned not to leave anything that didn't require tools to take apart anywhere near a child's reach...and to unplug most electronics when not in use. At the same time, they encouraged their daughter's interests with various science sets and so forth. It was with some relief that they watched her become as proficient at putting things together as she was at dissassembly. In high school Gen struggled through the 'remedial' (as she referred to them) core curriculum, while sailing through electives in shop and electronics with ease. She socialized with some difficulty as well, having a quick, sharp temper and little patience for gossip or smalltalk. After her freshman year, on the recommendation of several teachers, Gen was moved to an advanced program for gifted children. The program cost money, but at first things improved; which was worth it. But over time the difficulties started cropping up again. Genevieve, after an adjustment period, again complained that the material was either irrelevant or self-evident, and the people, including the teacher, too thick to deal with. At this point, things seemed bad. The Walkers weren't rich, and even if they'd had the money, there were no programs availiable beyond this one. At least...not that they knew of. It was at this point that Angel and Bastien made their appearance, and their unforgettable pitch. Acceptance was almost a foregone conclusion. After the treatments, Genevieve discovered that she could manifest apparently solid "objects" by an act of will alone...in apparent defiance of several laws of physics. She later came up with a theory that explained the process without lawbreaking. It seemed that Gen was able to access, subconsciously at least, the raw information that defines any area of space...the information layer that causes empty space to have different qualities than space with matter or energy in it. By 'reprogramming' this information, Genevieve could cause an area of emptiness to selectively manifest some of the qualities of matter. Impermeability, for example. Momentum. Inertia. This so-called "fakematter" could then be created in any shape or configuration imaginable...subject only to the limits of her powers. As she learns to imbue fakematter with more and more of the qualities of real materials, and can manifest greater quantities, in theory there's very few limits on what she will be able to create with little more than the snap of her fingers.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
