Friends and Associates
- Fredrica Xavier Good friend and Iris' tech supplier. Ther relationship started off less than perfect, but with time (And a some demons who brought out everyone's negative sides,) Iris got to like her. She sees her these days as a sort of older sister.
- Elizabeth Bloodmoon A very close friend, Iris trusts her with her life. Liz has been a huge help to Iris throughout all of the problems she has had. She views her as an older sister, and she is usually the first Iris turns to when needing to discuss personal 'girl stuff.'
- Dorian Summers FX's lover and another close friend of Iris. She sees him as a sort of older brother.
- Sparrowhawk I(deceased) Iris' mentor, he taught her all she knows about the bow. She was adopted by him at age 7, after he saved her from the mafia thugs who killed her family. After he died at the hads of his lover (Who is the current host of the entity 'Dark Sphynx'), she took his name and bow and vowed to carry on his legacy.
- Psijinx Iris' lover, a powerful psionic. He taught her most all of what she knows regarding her mental powers. The relationship started as a simple crush, but blossomed into much more. There were a few problems getting to where they are, but they're happy now.
- Paragonian Knights The Supergroup she has allied with. Iris views the group, as well as her friends, as family, and will fight fiercely to protect them.
Enemies
Dark Sphynx. A parasitic ancient spirit currently dormant inside the body of a former comrade. The creature is responsible for the death of her mentor, and nearly managed to corrupt Iris into being its next host.
The Family. Iris tends to hold a dislike for all mafia-esque groups equally, though she has a paticular dislike for the Family, as they are the ones responsible for her parent's deaths.
Physical Appearance
A rather pretty girl, Iris' most noticable feature is her hair, bright red and near-waist-length. It is always carefully cared for and brushed out, however she usually doesn't do more than tie it back in a simple low ponytail. She has bright green eyes, and slightly pale skin. She has a slender frame, though she is still developing in some areas. Though not outwardly muscular, she looks like she is in shape.
Her outfits range from girly and cute to rather tomboyish in nature, with her favorite attire consisting of a simple tanktop, black capris, and a red military-style coat. She is always seen wearing a strange silver bracelet and earpiece (A custom MP3 player), small crystal stud earrings, and a golden chain with a sparrowhawk charm on it.
Personality
Usually cheerful and outgoing, Iris is a friendly girl who has no real problems socializing. Barring the fact that she can be rather blunt, tending to speak her mind, sometimes without thinking. She views her friends and Supergroup peers as her family, and will go to great lengths to protect them, even so far as risking her own life. (She once kicked a fire demon in the head for menacing her friends.) For all her loyalty, she can get clingy, especially with those she really cares for.
She's remarkably mature for her age, and gets along far better with older people, (case-in-point, three of her closest friends are legal adults.)
Powers
- Telepathy and Telekinesis: Iris' only real 'powers.' Her telepathy is shaky at best. She still has trouble establishing connections with others without assistance, and can in no way probe others' minds. On the opposite end, her Telekinesis is *very* high-powered. She is capable of very fine manipulation, as well as telekinetic flight, telekinetic enhancement, and various other uses.
Abilities and Equipment
- Archery: Iris's primary skill, above everything else, is her talent with a bow. As an archer, she is on-par with some olympic atheletes, and she believes she will keep getting better. The bow she currently wields is a specialized Vanguard model built for her use specifically using plans from her mentor. She carries an arsenal of specialized arrows on her person, most gained through her friend FX, though some are her own invention.
- Mental Sheilding: Being a psionic, Iris has been trained in the ability to sheild herself from mental assaults. Her sheilds are still fragile, however, and she requires the use of a specialized charm to strengthen them to acceptable levels. She sometimes catches random surface thoughts from others.
- Other Tech: In costume, Iris utilizes a pair of rocket-boots for faster propulsion while airborne, though customized, they are based on her mentor's designs. The goggles she wears in costume are built to see in various visual spectrums.
Weaknesses and Limitations
- Though she hides it well, Iris is still just a young girl who lost her parents. She has nowhere near the physical stamina or resilience that a full-grown human has, and, despite her maturity, she finds it difficult to get those she doesn't know to take her seriously.
