=Stray=

'''Hero Name:''' Stray

'''Real Name:''' Alondra Perez, Ali

'''Abilities:''' Stealth and Camouflage, Acrobatics


=Moment of Truth=

''(locked)'' This is the moment when you show them exactly why you belong here. You do any one thing, take out any one enemy, no matter how insane, no matter how ridiculous, because that’s you. Their jaws are gonna drop when you’re done. Of course, pulling off a stunt like this tends to bring unwanted attention and a dangerous reputation...

=Team Moves=

When you share a triumphant celebration with someone, tell them how they’re awesome and add a Team to the pool. If they tell you how you’re awesome in return, add another Team to the pool.

When you share a vulnerability or weakness with someone, ask them to confirm or deny that you should be here. If they confirm it, mark potential and give them Influence over you. If they deny it, mark Angry and shift one Label up and one Label down, your choice.


=Moves=

'''Straight. Up. Creepin’''': <br>
When you scope out a person or place, roll + Mundane. On a 10+, ask two. On a 7-9, ask one.<br>
- what’s my best way in/out?<br>
- what happened here recently?<br>
- what here is worth grabbing?<br>
- who or what here is not what they seem?<br>
- whose place is this?<br>
On a miss, you find yourself in over your head. The GM will tell you why this is a bad spot.<br>
<br>
'''No powers and not nearly enough training''':<br>
You’re always picking up new gear to keep yourself in the game. Whenever you pick up a new piece of gear, you can write it in as a new ability if this line is empty:<br>
[_______________________________]<br>
The first time you use each piece of gear to directly engage a threat, unleash your powers, or defend someone, you can roll + Mundane instead of the normal Label.

=Drives=
punch someone you probably shouldn’t

reject someone who tells you “you shouldn’t be here”

help a teammate when they most need you 


=Backstory=

• '''How did you gain your skills?'''<br>
Ah, well I mean they're not really anything special so it's not a super interesting story, right? I did gymnastics for a few years back before high school, and I got into free running a while back. So just practice and falling on my face a lot and hoping no cute girls saw me? I'm kinda quiet and small in general so the sneaky stuff just came naturally.
<br>
• '''When did you first put on your costume?''' <br>
Last summer. I don't live in the best neighborhood; it's not, like, horrible or anything but there's a crime problem, breaking & entering and muggings mostly, a few assaults. We don't really get supervillians running through so the big heroes never pop in and occasionally a newbie trying to make a name for themselves will do patrols for a while, but they're never around long. I just wanted to help I guess? So I bought some cheap crap from a costume shop and boom, Stray was born. I, uh, didn't pick the name. I was gonna come up with some cool cat-based name because of the ears but a couple jerks I scared away from an old lady they were harassing called me a stray and the old lady assumed that was my hero name or whatever and by the next morning basically the whole neighborhood had heard...
<br>
• '''Who, outside of the team, thinks you shouldn’t be a superhero'''? <br>
Some jerk reporter for the Halcyon City Herald - Owen Tippet I think? - was nearby when the fight at the mall broke out. He wrote an article about us and really harped on the fact that I don't have cool flashy powers. Thanks dude I totally needed more fuel for the insecurity fires.
<br>
• '''Why do you try to be a hero?''' <br>
I dunno, I couldn't just stand by and not help when there was maybe something I could do, ya know?
<br>
• '''Why do you care about the team?''' <br>
They don't talk down to me, or treat me like a joke. I mean I don't think they do. Why, have you heard something I haven't???


=When Our Team First Came Together=

We found signs that this incident was just the start of something bigger. What were the signs?
(Dear me please rewrite this so it's not crummy soon) she noticed a gadget or something one of Lady Melanchthon's minions dropped when they bolted, unlike the rest of her brainwashed crew who stuck around and got arrested along with their boss. Something with a weird symbol on it, either totally unknown or of an evil organization that was supposed to have been wiped out years ago maybe, indicating a mole in Melanchthon's Family? Stray thinks the gadget might have had something to do with the Director's helicopter malfunctioning but it broke when it was dropped so they can't be sure.


=Relationships=

Belts is awesome, and you take every chance you get to hang out with them. <br>
You’ve got to prove yourself to Panacea before you feel like a real hero.
