From Unofficial Handbook of the Virtue Universe

This character comes from two PvP ideas I had. The first was to create a stalker with the absolute best two-shot in the game. I kitted the ideal build out in mids' for something like +70% global +damage, and made it as an EM/WP. I had no idea what to make as a concept, and I finally ended with a character closely resembling that of Kohaku (from Tsukihime). Since I didn't really want to play a character as deranged as Kohaku, I changed her core personality a bit (although the backstory remains the same).

After a while, Magic Circuit gained a lot of friends and eventually joined Rogue Entertainment. However, I was totally unhappy with the nerfs to Energy Melee (mostly witnessed by Meo Tsang) and i13 stalkers in general. I took a long hiatus from playing the game and didn't come back until i14, and then only because I wanted to make the best dueler in the game. I deleted the stalker version of Magic Circuit and made a character that better fit her concept, an elec/kin corruptor. She was 50 in three days. IC'ily, she's always been a kin.

Mature content warning. Amber's backstory is pretty uh... not safe for work. It contains a ton of very objectionable/sexual subject matter. Even if you're normally into that sort of thing, uh... yeah. Amber's childhood wasn't pretty.

Synchronization

Amber is a mutant with the ability to synchronize with other beings. This synchronization power empowers the recipient by adjusting their personal energy flow to reduce impurities and correct the body's natural energy pathways. This allows people affected by her powers to perform as though their bodies were at peak physical condition. Metahumans typically benefit greatly from this energy exchange - their powers become much more efficient and often capable of much greater effect.

Spell casters are even more enhanced. Mages typically benefit from a massive increase in prana circulation, dramatically increasing their spell potency and efficiency. Even more noteworthy is that frequent synchronization over the long term can lead to the permanent addition of magic circuits, boosting a mage's spellcasting efficiency permanently.

In all cases, synchronization is pleasurable, giving a warm feeling of euphoria. Moreover, it creates a mild craving in the recipient for more of her powers. In the long term, frequent use of synchronization powers can lead to full-blown addiction.

Amber can also desynchronize a person. This power effectively shorts out a person's energy flow, exhausting them but leaving them unharmed.

All of Amber's synchronization powers can be achieved at a distance, with concentration. This is somewhat taxing on her own magic circuits. Her powers are much more effective when delivered by touch. She unconsciously synchronizes with people merely by touching them, but the effect is much greater if she is attempting to use her powers. The most effective method of synchronization, and the one most often desires, is through close body contact or exchange of body fluids, typically through kissing or sexual intercourse. Vampires will find drinking Amber's blood to be highly invigorating, although Amber's powers prevent her from becoming an undead.

Amber also benefits from synchronization, although generally in more subtle ways. When she syncs with someone (or even when she desyncs) she gains a smaller benefit to her own personal energy and to her magic circuits. Since she synchronizes frequently (anytime she touches someone) she has become somewhat addicted to her own power use. She also has the build up of magic circuits commonly found in mages who synchronize frequently, although she has no magic knowledge.

Magic...?

Amber's frequent use of synchronization has given her an impressive magic circuit with which to perform magical effects. While she has no actual magical training, she has an unusual talent - she can move at insane speeds and propel her body to incredible heights. Her speed is so incredible that she can even outrun teleporting heroes if her destination is in a straight line.

While moving extremely fast, Amber does not generate motion blur - she appears to 'pop' from one place to another, almost as if teleporting. Because of this, she can easily take people by surprise - she is so fast that she can be at her destination before people realize she has left.
