Do Not Go Gentle: Portal
Biographical Details
Alias: Portal
Name: Sally Sapsford
Date of Birth: January 10th 1928
Character Notes:
Your powers manifested when you were fourteen, when you were attacked by a would be mugger. You fell through while grappling, and when you closed the portal, there was half of your attacker here, and half of him over there. That was the first and only time you ever killed, and you don’t intend to ever do that again.
The problem with being a writer (especially a slush novelist like yourself) is an overactive imagination. Maybe its just the sense of disorientation and impermanence that your power gives you, but sometimes you lose track of where you are and what’s real or not. You’re pretty sure you’re not meant to be hearing voices when you go to sleep, and sometimes you’ve woken up elsewhere to where you went to sleep. But that’s just your overactive imagination… or so you tell yourself.
