Appearance

River is a teen of androgyonous appearance, with short fluffy black hair, grey eyes, and tan or light brown skin. They stand 5’9, and wear loose-fitting clothing out of costume.

Mentality

Believing that no evil should be tolerated, Hathor is very much a crusading avenger against crime. They don’t believe in holding back against villains and criminals. Thus, they react to even minor threats with excessive force, which has caused them some trouble in the cape community.

Power

Trigger Type: Natural Double Trigger

Hathor creates yellow light-based constructs in two different forms: armor and weapons. The armor can have differing shapes to fit aesthetic purposes. When generated, Hathor chooses one type of damage for the armor to resist, becoming essentially immune to that sort of damage. The include kinetic, electric, heat/cold, corrosive, and radiation. Other types of damage are resisted, but will break through with a hard enough single hit or a sustained assault. When broken, the armor takes some time to regenerate with a new resistance.

The weapons are melee-based in nature and can be dense blunt weapons or extremely sharp. In general, the finer of an edge the weapon has, the less abuse it can take. Something shaped like a baseball bat could last essentially forever, but a sword that can cut through steel can only be used once or twice before breaking and needing to be reformed. Weapons take a short time to regenerate. Weapons have the same immunity as the armor.

In addition, Hathor has fine telekinetic control over the constructs, but it is slow. They can use this to throw a weapon and make minute changes in the air, but the speed that the changes take place only allow for a general hit rather than something precise. They could direct it at your face, but not your eye. They can use the telekinesis on armor to fly, again at a slow speed (about 30 mph) with fine turning and control.

Backstory

You lived in a bad neighborhood. Plenty of crime, gangs constantly jockeying for the territory. You knew something had to be done, but you weren’t sure what. As you lived every day, you became more and more angry as you saw people get hurt, die. The cops wouldn’t do anything because it was a “lost cause.” The Protectorate wouldn’t do anything because capes weren’t involved.

You were on your way home when it happened. A trio of thugs cornered you, demanded your wallet. You snapped, lashed out, punched one. They didn’t like that. They dragged you down the street, kicking and screaming. Nobody helped. They took you into a garage, hooked you up to a car battery. As they turned it on and the electricity started to flow, you triggered.
