The Legacy



Personality: As ruthless as she is cunnng, Roxy is a snake in more ways than one. Extremely sarcastic and sly, the viper has been in this business for a few years now and knows what she's doing. Her attitude has become much more lax, and it has changed her - she no longer reacts to the deaths of others with much remorse, and she's willing to send people to their deaths. In this world, any sign of weakness was noted and waiting to be exploited and she refuses to show any. She reads people like they're open books and she always seems to have people wrapped around her finger in one way or another. Lying is second, first and even third nature to the snake haired Roxy who's heart doesn't even skip a beat when she lies about anything. She prefers to have other people do her dirty work, but if she wants something done right she has absolutely no qaurrel with doing it herself.

History: "There was once a Gypsy, a jealous, withered old hag - who had wasted her youth and felt spite towards those who were making the most of theirs. She enjoyed cursing them, giving them strange, disgusting little traits in order to destroy their lives. And this wicked old hag, caught a glimpse of me. I was so beautiful, glimmering brown eyes and hair like a sunrise. Due to be married. She'd seen the ring. Jealousy welled up within her heart and like a vengeful ghost, she stalked me. When I was alone, she came forward, dirty finger nails raised in the air. 'You there, I bring you a proposition - a magical one at that!' She cackled. Obviously, I was curious. So she took me to a tent and told me if I drank from a goblet, I'd have unimaginable riches. And well... what can I say? I was young, stupid and well, wanted money. I drank. 'Twas like drinking acid. I fell to the floor, retching as I heard the bitch cackle over me. I lay there for several seconds, with a fiery headache. I thought that my face was sizzling, but it wasn't until I felt my hair writhing and slithering that I realised that my hair had become a mess of snakes and the sizzling was just them hissing...

Well, obviously I was terrified. I shrieked and screamed, much to the delight of the wicked old hag. I ran from the building, and the hag was content. As far as she was concerned, she'd ruined my life - punished me for enjoying my youth. When I made it home, my husband was terrified. He yelled something at me about being a monster and I stormed upstairs. To the bathroom I ran, and I sat before the vanity mirror. I covered my eyes for several minutes. But eventually, I worked up the courage to lower my hands and look at what she'd done. Vibrant yellow snakes curled around my head, drooped down my shoulders and gently hissed. I didn't know how to react. I just... stared. But y'know. I feel as if the gypsy greatly underestimated what type of person I was. She'd assumed I was just another dumb blonde, who'd managed to find herself a rich man to leech off. Well, you know what? I quite liked the new look. Sure my make-up had ran down my face from the crying but I liked it. They... suited me. You know what else the gypsy didn't know? My husband... was a crime lord. He was the head of a lesser Mafia family. Well... I've always been a tad ambitious...

I gathered myself. I'd only been given venomous snakes for hair for less than an hour and I was already planning murder. It's true waht they say... power changes. I opened the door, and walked downstairs. He was stood at the door, on the phone. Probably talking to the priest, who knows. I called out to him 'Damian....' he was hesitant but he turned around to look at me. I could see it in his eyes, it was like he was looking at a ruined piece of art. Bastard. But he seemed... paralyzed. As if he didn't know how to react so his body simply didn't... I slowly reached out my hand to carress his cheek and it was when we touched that I noticed. He let out of sort of pained gasp as some pale, grey veins spread out over his body. He froze in the most awkward position. A sweat ran down his head. His eyes frnatically swiveled inside their sockets. Air was pulsing in and out of his lungs in the most calm panic I've ever seen. Was I doing this? I thought to myself. I took my hand from his cheek and he gasped, staggering on the spot, before I touched his neck again. He froze in the position he'd crouched in. Frantically calm. I smiled, before I leant down and made eye contact. I looked my own husband in the eye and slowly allowed the snakes to slither through the air and sink their fangs into his neck. I let go of his neck and he fell to the floor, vomited, fell into it and just... pulsated for a few seconds before his body became eeriely still.

First person I ever killed was my husband. I became the new head of the family; It would have been his next of kin but well, when they saw the snakes no-one wanted to argue. When I was officially instigated as the family's head I had the biggest threats within the family killed, discreetly - mutany is never fun. I hunted down the gypsy and infected her with a venom that makes it feel as if your blood's on fire before I shot her straight through the throat. Oh, but don't worry, I did thank her..."
Roxy smiled and looked at her surroundings, an empty restaurant. She'd never told the story to anyone before but it felt good to finally explain where she'd came from to somebody. It wasn't like this guy was gonna tell anyone anyway. She looked at her hand, resting on top of the man opposite her's hand. The man's eyes were frantically shaking, helpless, some of his veins a pale grey colour. "Anyway, enough bedtime stories.' With her other hand, she reached into her coat and removed a small, silver pistol. She pointed the barrel at the terrified man, and like the final nail in the coffin, pulled the hammer back with her thumb. 'Where were we?"

A gunshot echoed.



The Powers and Weaknesses


(All characters can be as powerful as they want, as long as they are balanced with proper weaknesses.)
Powers

Power 1: Gorgon's touch: If Roxy makes skin on skin contact with another organism, their access to motor functions is severally limited, being left only able to blink and breathe. They are unable to move until the contact is broken, but remain completely aware. Causes extreme discomfort, sweating and even pain on the victim if the contact isn't broken for extended periods of time. (Permission based). (1)

Power 2: Snakes: Roxy hair is composed of a unique breed of snake. They have supernatural strength and are loaded with several magical venoms. They are capable of lifting a surprising 3 tons, and striking quickly with similar force. Roxy is capable of using the snakes to produce any type of venom/poison that is known to man. (2)

Power 3: Enhanced Reflexes: Roxy's embrace of her curse has made it beneficial to her. It has enhanced her reflexes to the point where she'd be capable of avoiding someone shooting at her at point blank. It has also enhanced her speed, allowing her to move her body at four times the speed of an olympic athlete. (2)

Power 4: Regeneration: Roxy's body heals faster than a normal person's. If you were to stab her, the wound would seal and close in about 15 seconds. While she can recover from most non-lethal wounds rather quickly, lethal wounds may still kill her, depending on the severity (slashing her throat is different to blowing her face off with a shotgun). She'd probably survive the throat, but the shotgun would kill her, if it were lucky enough to find her. (1)

Power 5: Her Snake senses are tingling: Roxy is capable of experiencing the world through her snakes. She can see through their eyes and smell what they smell. This gives her 360 degree vision as well as a much stronger sense of smell, when she choses to activate it. She is also capable of faintly detecting heat signatures. (1)

Weakness(es)

Weakness 1: Contact: If Roxy's contact with the person is broken, the effects of Gorgon's Touch instantly subside, however as the experience is extremely unpleasant they may have to take a moment to catch their breath.

Weakness 2: Skin: Roxy must make skin on skin contact with someone in order to paralyze them. Her snakes don't count.

Weakness 3: Hydrophobic: Roxy cannot swim. While she doesn't live in constant fear of water, if she were thrown into a swimmable amount she'd probably drown.

Weakness 4: Cold Blooded: Roxy is cold blooded and if the temperature drops too low she gets sluggish, slow and tired.

Weakness 5: Range: If you keep her at a distance, the only thing she will be able to do is shoot at you.

Weakness 6: Snake eyed: While her snakes allow her to see 360 degrees around herself, they have weak vision. The sense of smell is to help compensate for this.

Weakness 7: Rash: Roxy will frequently rush into things when planning/waiting would be prudent. She prefers to hit her enemies without hesitation, which can sometimes lead to her downfall. While she is very intelligent, she doesn't always think her actions through - sometimes her hatred for a person can make her want blood, regardless of what the benefits of keeping them alive might be. Or the consequences for killing them.

Weakness 8: Greek warriors called Perseus.

RP Mechanics

RP Mechanic(s):

Hand to Hand: Roxy has spent the last 5 years learning how to handle herself. She is proficient at close quarters combat, utilising her snakes and her speed in order to hit quick and hit hard. She's a slippery opponent.
