Name: Athena Jane Powell
Age: Twnety Two
Sexuality: Bisexual
Alliance: Hero
Power: Well, Athena's power, is only useful in talking people into getting what she wants. Another thing Persuasion may be known as is charmspeaking and with charm speaking she can influence anyone by her own voice into getting them to do what she wants them to do. It's like a little switch that goes off in her head that tells her how one may be able to act when it comes to talking circles around people, and normally one thing that helps her power is giving certain touches, like on the shoulder or anything really. It's much more difficult for Athena to charmspeak a women versus a man, although if that women were bi or lesbian, it'd potentially be a bit easier, it's more of a flirting power that she has. Sometimes she can persuade people into killing themself or another person, or she can bend them against their will, it's not really I got power to have in combat much but it's great for interviewing people who have information she wants to know. Her weakness is potentially the fact that it gets a bit buggy and sometimes she doesn't do it right, although that's not much of a control problem her power has always been like that as far as she can see. being fully trained there's not too many problems with her power, sometimes it can drain her though, and the more it's used the more it gradually takes energy away from her, although she doesn't really control when she uses it either. Which is a bad combo.
Skills: Lock picking, hacking into systems, cooking, agility, and smooth tongue
Weaknesses: Physical strength, close combat, half blind so a major blind spot, she was almost burned alive once so she has major burn marks on her stomach that are very vulnerable, and she can't sing to save her life.

Dislikes: Fire, heels they're a paint to walk in, chips, flowers, sunshine, and swimming.
Personality: Athena is the type of girl who is more of the sarcastic and joking type. She teases anyone and everyone. She also has a habit of being sarcastic to people who she's around and talking to, she doesn't always try to be like that but she just happens to be. She also seems to have good come backs to, and she owes that to being a quick thinker and she's quick on her feet, although when ever she's in a situation she just does things as she goes along, she's a winger, and she wings things almost constantly and doesn't really like to plan, in that sense she's rather adaptable to most situatios that occur. Athena is rather blunt, and she only tells the truth, she doesn't like to surgar coat things either, and she doesn't like to lie and in return she hopes people don't lie to her either. Athena will tell you how it is but if she knows you're a sensitive person she might not be as forceful with the truth.
She is one of those girls who have that incredibly sweet side though, she's not all sarcasm and jokes, she can be quite serious and cutesy. She can be charming and caring all in one go. She knows how to care for people, and she's actually very loyal, even though it may seem as she is independent she's not, she likes team work, and she's always trying to help others, but she doesn't like to make it completely obvious all the time, and she can give out sincere compliments and such too, she just doesn't like the idea of being exposed so she doesn't open herself up like this to just anyone.
History: Athena was born to an alcoholic and druggie who gambled, they were always gambling their money away and it was harsh on Athena to live in a condition like that. She was always around alcohol, drugs, gambling, and it wasn't a good thing for a child to be around. They even ended up giving Athena a little brother who they named Nuka. Her and Nuka were always close although her parents were hardly home so Athena had to take care o her brother, feed him, play games with him, and she was basically like a mother to him.
There wasn't a whole lot that Athena could do with her parents so she had a crazy idea one day while she was thirteen. She ran away taking her brother with her and she helped her brother escap and he made it to the orphanage but her father found her and dragged her away, he took her home and began to beat her over and over again, Athena kept crying out for him to stop but ne never did, her face got so bloody, and she had horrible bruises all over her, her father was a horrid druggie, and he had been mixing them up, plus he had a mental illness that was unknown to the public. He locked her in a metal shed out on their run down land near the back. They had always lived on the outskirts. But he had shoved her in there and he had set his own daughter on fire and he left. Her screams were horrifying, and by the time someone had found her, her whole upper half of her body was burned and she was bleeding. they put the fire out but she was still screaming bloody murder. After that she stayed in hospital for months for recovery, and she wanted quite a lot and she had happened to use her power to help aid her with it. The people who helped her out were about to cut her off when Athena knew she needed a lot more time so she knew she had to talk them into letting her stay in there. So she did.
After recovery, she was wandering the streets with no where to go, and no where to hide, she tried to go to the orphanage to see her brother, but they were told a family came and took him too a new home. Athena cried on the side of the road for hours, until eventually a person came by to talk to her and talked about the endless outcomes and all the good things she could do while with them. Eventually she left with the guy and she went into training to be along side with the heroes. She didn't want to be a bad guy like her parents, she wanted to help people, like she always has been doing. Although she was a bit young for extreme training like the normal ones that they do but when she was fifteen she went into proper training.
Other: Athena has horrible nightmares to this day about what her father did to her, and no one knows what happened that night beides her, and if someone else does know she told you and she trusts you like crazy. She doesn't trust really anyone, she's scared to trust and she's scared of people touching her.
