Equipment

Powers:

Technopathy;
The ability to communicate with machines or technology, and to use them to the users will. The suer can easily remove all the money from an ATM, rig an electronic voting machine network, use an ordinary mobile to triangulate another phone, or use machines such as ATMs to display messages to people with certain bank cards.
This ability can be used much more broadly with the use of a wireless device, such as a mobile phone. This ability is noted to be deeply connected with Cyberpathy. It is not unusual for a person to possess both abilities.

Cyberpathy;
The ability to send and receive electronic messages, including, but not limited to e-mail, text message, and phone calls. The user becomes a walking computer, and is able to hack into files that 'normal' hackers, or even technopaths would struggle to access. The user is constantly connected to the internet, and as a result, little escapes their attention. This ability sometimes relies on the signal that can be sent or received by satellites, for instance, a Cyberpath would have their ability severely weakened in the deepest part of the Himalayas. The reverse is also true. CyCL0ne possesses a great deal of mental strength to stop this ability from overwhelming her.

Magnetism Manipulation;
The ability to manipulate magnetic fields, and therefore objects that can be attracted or repelled by magnetism. Metal is the biggest thing that this ability affects, ranging from magnetizing a small needle, redirecting the path of bullets, to sending a police car crashing into another.


Alice is human, and still needs to eat, drink, and sleep. She suffers from migraines if she over-uses her technopathy or cyberpathy, and has blacked out before from using them. Just like a computer, Alice can easily be infected with a computer virus, which is not usually fatal, but can put her out of action for a few days.

History

[[WIP]]
Alice Casey's mother lived in New YorkCity, where she used her ability of Super Speed to help fight for truth and justice, while her father was an ordinary scientist, who researched into new forms of communications. They never married, and Alice had been the result of a short-lived relationship. Alice's father was the one who raised her, as her mother's lifestyle was 'unsuitable for raising a young child'. Alice always guessed that it was the fact that her mother had already missed out on almost nine months of action, and that she didn't want to miss any more.
Alice had always shown a fondness for technology, something which her father approved and encouraged more of. At the tender age of six, Alice was fully literate, and knew the workings of most of the electronics in the house. One night, after having a particlarly fitful night's sleep, she began screaming about 'voices in her head.' Her mother firmly told father and daughter that Alice would spent at least a month a year with her in Omega City.
It took years, but Alice and her father worked together to help her gain some control over what they realized was the constant stream of wireless communication. Her mother was only mildly interested, and did little to help.
Morgan, aged twelve, was the first to hear the order for her mother to be shot. By the time she'd gotten to the phone, her mother had a bullet through her chest. This would mess any kid up, but it broke Alice's heart even more that it was one of the 'good' guys who'd ordered the hit. She'd ensured that the hero was exposed as the villain he was, but it still made her wary of any 'hero' that offered her their help. This wasn't enough to put Alice onto the dark side, as she knew what the 'bad' guys were capable of doing as well. She managed to persuade her father to move into the City again, and this was when she adopted the alias CyCL0nE. Alice's father had developed cancer, and despite her desperate research, and months of treatment, the man died a few weeks short of Alice's 17th birthday.

Alice, suddenly left without anyone to look after her, was left to turn to her abilities. She used them for crime, hacking into bank accounts to get the money she desperately needed to survive. Even when Morgan had enough to rent a comfortable apartment in a nice enough neighborhood, food in the fridge, and fresh clothes on her back, CyCL0ne found herself unable to stop hacking. She became notorious, an elusive hacker that couldn't be traced, no matter what technology the police got their hands on.

The Police Chief, increasing wary of the teenager who had no job, or any other means of earning money, yet who's bank account kept getting richer, decided to investigate a little further.
Alice panicked when confronted in her flat, and burnt out most of the building's electronics in a flat second. The frightened girl moved something within the Chief, and he decided not to arrest her, but instead tried to help her get over her 'addiction' and lack of control. It worked, and Alice later went on to work as an informer.
