The section where these words are is the "Public Information" section, along with the "Appearance" section below. Only put information here that the average member of the public would know about your character. That way, someone looking to avoid accidental metagaming can just look ONLY at those sections, to get an idea of your character.
Basically, it's just a little summary of them, and of what we know publicly. Don't be too worried if there's not a lot here! Once they've been around for awhile, it may help to create a little timeline sorta thing using a bulleted list.
Character Sheet
Appearance
Civilian: Gideon wears their blond hair in a ponytail, with the sleeves of their long blue shirt covering a few scratches and burns on their arms. They don't wear a tie, but keep their shirts buttoned all the way to the top. Their features are plain but androgyne.
Cape: Mewl wears their blonde hair down, draped over their shoulders and back. Their costume consists of a lavender/lilac office shirt, the top button undone and the sleeves rolled up to the elbow. They wear pale brown safety gloves, with safety boots in a matching brown. Their mask is that of a white cat with pink pipe cleaners for the whiskers, worn over the upper half of their face and obscuring their nose while leaving their mouth free to smile. A half skirt made from leather belts covers the various holsters they use to carry their hatchets. A pair of black suspenders keep their trousers up and support the belts and holsters.
Equipment and Resources
Mewl has a job in retail, ensuring that a Home Base supply depot remains stocked. Around once a month or so an item or two can be "misplaced" if they're careful about it, letting them get access to another few axes, climbing ropes, or new pairs of shoes. They allow themselves around a hundred dollars spending money a week, and live a modest life from an apartment within walking distance of their job.
A 10 metre length of rope, a pair of safety gloves, a pair of safety boots, and seven small hatchets. A can of neon green glow in the dark spray paint.
Skills and Specializations
Mewl has trained themself to hit a stationary target with a thrown object. They are very bad at hitting moving targets, and tend to overestimate how fast people move. Mewl has trained themself to climb and vault most things their height, and to jog but not run whilst weighed down with their amunition and gear. They know a few sailor's knots, but nothing sophisticated. They have training in safely lifting and transporting heavy loads, as well as health and safety, and are their office's designated first aider.
Mentality
Gideon is quiet and shy in their place of work, trying not to be noticed and resenting the way their role requires them to watch other people.
Mewl is somewhat more personable. They enjoy giving people a glimpse before moving out of range, immitating a horror movie villain while still playing up the ridiculousness of their costume and gimmick. If someone engages them in conversation they'll play along, and the idea of someone being as into the potential camp of capery amuses them. Mewl won't cut kick someone while they're down. They loathe fighting someone who is injured, preferring people to run, and often giving people a head start in order to keep things interesting. They go for nonlethal blows when swinging, and aim to leave cuts in places where a fellow cape might be able to hide them.
Mewl wants to gain a reputation by scaring/harassing people, and heroes make excellent targets.
Mewl is a coward, willing to run and hide if they think they can't get the upper hand, and will never risk their life to save another person.
Power
Trigger Type: Multi-trigger
Feng Shui
Thinker power, allowing Mewl an instinctive understanding of their surroundings once they've seen it. They will notice subtle changes, and have an understanding of lines of sight

Catnap
When Meal falls unconscious or suffers severe trauma they enter a deathlike state and gain a charge. This charge triggers when they are no longer being watched by human eyes to grant a brief spurt of healing, regaining the ability to do this when they next go to sleep. Going down a second time before they go to sleep will stick. They are seemingly unaffected by weapons lodged in them before the healing surge, even axes buried in their side, and will need to remove them to allow the wound to heal.
- Bullets to the head, holes through their chest, losing their heart or brain etc will still kill Mewl outright
- It takes more than just blinking, people have to be actively looking elsewhere
- Stand around watching their body for an hour and the charge triggers even if they're being watched
- This deathlike state is indistinguishable from death
- Damage taken while in their deathlike state will not be healed
- Lost limbs take multiple successive sleeps to heal
- This does work while they're on camera
- Mewl's healing will trigger when they go to sleep, even if they healed before going to sleep
- But not if a power puts them to sleep
- Mewl's healing can't trigger while they are asleep
Woosh
At a distance of 30 to a hundred feet from a person or camera, if Mewl is about to be spotted, Mewl can teleport a distance of ten feet, with an audible rush of air accompanying this movement.
- Mewl cannot do this while someone else is watching
- Mewl can do this while a camera is watching
- Animals don't count, even if powers are involved
