Powers

Abilities

• Super Strength! - Imp can lift about a ton. She's not the strongest meta out there, but that's still a lot of strength compared to your average Joe.

• Super Flexibility - Imp's agility and flexibility are well beyond the limits of a normal person, even a contortionist/acrobat would have difficulty doing what she does. No wonder she's so popular.

• Super Equilibrium - It's impossible to make Imp dizzy or throw her off balance. Carousels do nothing for her.

• Durability - Imp is more durable then your average person, Capable of taking hits that would break most people. She's not invincible though, and in more then one occasion has been knocked silly by a stronger opponent that got the drop on her.

• Stealth - Imp is capable of turning herself invisible. But only when staying still. Better then being visible all the time, right?

• Dodge! Imp is really good at dodging things. She always seems to know how to move out of the way of direct attacks, It's not infallible, but it's pretty uncanny. She can still be caught off guard however.

• Witty Retort - Imp likes to wisecrack and say witty commentary in a fight. It serves to both keep her calm and level headed, as well as infuriate attackers into making mistakes.

• Reflective eyes - Imp's eyes give her better then average vision in the dark. It's not perfect night vision, but it's better then most.

Weapons and Gadgets

• Smartphone - Imp Carries the latest Android smartphone that she can afford. It has tools essential to a heroes survival, GPS, translator... Angry Birds...

• Disposable gloves - Because sometimes, things are gross.

• Zipties - Great for tying up badguys for the cops...and making sure trash-bags don't spill over.

• Flashlight - Imp has excellent night vision, but it's not good enough to pick out small things. Always good for finding her keys in the dark.

• Grappling hook - Angels favorite thing! Her grappling hook can be used as a zipline, offensive tool, taser, badguy roper, and swinging device. It had multi directional firing abilities, It was built by the teenage genius, Techno Babel

• Mentos - The fresh maker.

• Pocket Knife - For unscrewing those pesky grates that keep her out of airducts.

Weaknesses

• Only invisible to the visual spectrum - Imp's powers of invisibility only effect visual detection. Someone who could sense her mind or smell her could potentially find her if they try hard enough.

• Can't move when invisible - If Imp moves when invisible, She'll break her stealth. This is only effected by her movement, If she's on something that's moving she wont break stealth.

• Sturdy, But not invulnerable - Imp still feels it when she's hit, she can take a physical blow better then your average Joe, but she's not going to shrug off being hit by a car.

• Being riddled with bullets - Imp is great at dodging firearms and blade attacks, but if one hits her, it's going to go in just like it would a normal person.

• Muffins! - Imp just loves baked confectionery. Not really a weakness, but man does she love donuts.

• Devilish good looks - Because of her appearance, not everyone trusts Imp. Religious zealots and the superstitious especially.

Personality

Angel's personality is best described as Impish. ( HAH! See what I did there? ) She's fun, likes to goof around and usually has something fun to say, or do. Most people take this as her being juvenile or not taking things seriously, this isn't true. In fact, it's a coping mechanism she picked up in her youth. Imp is often nervous or unsure of herself, what other people think of her, and her own abilities. She uses jokes to hide that.

Angel was home schooled in her youth, mostly out of how she was treated because of her devil like appearance. She had a loving and supportive family, but she has a difficult time adjusting to social life, as she didn't have many, if any friends growing up. She had a boyfriend, once, but that was also ruined by her looks, Her boyfriends parent's didn't like her, and forced the two to separate. In spite of this, Imp does maintain an optimistic outlook on life.

Imp also doesn't like to keep comments to herself. If someone's being an idiot, she'll let them know. This of course is counteracted by the fact that deep down, she really likes people, and doesn't want to upset them. She usually finds herself saying something unintentional and sticking her foot in her mouth.

Origin of the irrepressible Imp

Red skin, pointy tail, at first sight, one would think this woman some kind of demon or devil, and most people think that. However, Angel is no less human then Kinetic or Sapphire.

Born into a fairly average family, life was pretty normal for Angel growing up, Plenty of friends, middle class family. Her life was soon flipped sideways when her skin slowly started to turn redder and redder, Originally thinking it was some kind of skin condition, she was taken to a dermatologist, who couldn't find anything actually wrong with her. As time went on, she started growing a tail, and strange powers started to surface. Dubbed "Imp" by the kids at school due to her appearance, she eventually was pulled out and home schooled, and started hiding her devilish looks.

When she was 18, a local group of criminals broke into the bank in her hometown. Imp, took this as a call to action and stop them, and easily took down the small group, making her a bit of a hometown legend. However, the local church didn't take as kindly to her, and she eventually left for Millennium, where she decided to fight crime under the very name she was teased with as a kid.

Early years -Ages 17-20-

Imp's first jump into super heroics happened at a young age, 18. She was bringing a check to the bank ( A paycheck) when four men in masks broke in. Imp single handedly stopped the four with a combination of kicks and acrobatics. She quickly became a hometown legend, stitched up a superhero costume, and started fighting crime. She never forgot the way she felt fighting those criminals. The clear sense of duty she felt carries on with her still.

Trouble -Age 23-

Imp had always had trouble fitting in with people because of her appearance. The church especially, who outwardly shunned her, and her incredibly catholic family causing a rut between her and religion. To make things worse, A local super villain called the high sticker ( Hockey themed villain) had set his targets on Imp, She had stopped him from stealing the Stanley cup that week, and he wanted revenge. He called Imp out and fought her, ending by blowing up an old church, The incident got blamed on Imp, and she decided to pack up and move on.

Current

Imp recently moved to Millennium city where she met a few friends, and has been working tirelessly as a warrior of good. She's stopped several villains ( to be added later)

Family Life

Imp has a very loving family (mostly). Here's some information on them.

• Peter Anderson - Angels father. Peter owns his own life insurance company, it's not the most well to do one, but it does well for itself. The family has more then enough money to go around. He spoils Angel a bit. She's very much a daddy's girl. A devote Catholic, but believes in equality and loving everyone

• Mary Anderson Angel's mother. Mary was formerly an outpatient nurse, and taught all of her kids first aid and CPR, She quit her job to home school Angel when the bullying got to be too much. She's caring and and VERY religious. She still spoils Angel, but she spoils all of her kids equally. She hasn't missed a day of church in over 40 years.

• Abraham Anderson The eldest of the Anderson children, Abraham is very much the prodigal son. He's a respected M.D. and recently got back to the states after a five year mission to Africa, where he administered vaccinations and helped build hospitals for the poorer parts of the nation. He's next in line to take over Anderson Life Insurance. He adores his baby sister a lot, the two get along very well and love each other very much.

• Paul Anderson Paul is well loved by his family, He's also a devote catholic and is currently attending seminary college to become a full time priest. However, he doesn't like Angel one bit. He believes she is actually possessed by some kind of devil and is a curse on the world. He hasn't spoken to Angel in over eight years.

Rogues Gallery

Imp has made a few nemesises Nemesee? What's the plural on that?

• High Sticker- A hockey themed villain responsible for Imp's leaving Jersey, His biggest plot was to steel the Stanley cup, Imp foiled it, He blew up a church for revenge, Uses trick hockey pucks. Every time he gets locked up, he finds SOME way to escape.
  Imp's thoughts This guy is vindictive for how much of a joke he is. he's an easy win, but if you beat him, watch out, he may blow up an old church and blame it on you."

• Goomba- Goomba is a large man, about nine feet tall, and with the body shape of an obese man.. His large body prevents most forms of attack. Luckily, he's not very smart. Imp usually tricks him somehow.
  Imp's thoughts"He's a big butterball turkey, and about as smart as a solar powered flashlight. It's easier to trick him or talk him down then it is to beat him up. But it's HELLA fun to jump on his head.

• Debbie Dubstep- Debbie is a woman with a lot of power and often sporting some kind of raver costume, Debbie can control sound waves to use as powerful pressurized blasts, Her favorite attack method is dubstep, hence the name.
  Imp's thoughts"She's got a terrible sense of fashion and horrible music tastes. She's good at getting men wrapped around her finger to do her bidding. Must be the lack of clothing."

• Lord Darkblood- Or as Imp calls him, Lard Dorkbutt, Is a young genius that creates machines to imitate sorcery. Demon minion automatons, a "magic" wand that shoots lightning, etc, He's obsessed with Imp, who he thinks he's destined to marry. He also thinks that it will impress her if he gets stronger and commits crime. He's nearly beaten her a few times. He's currently serving time in jail.
  Imp's thoughts "Lard Dorkbutt is confused, and really creepy. I'd be happier if he just...stayed away."

Friends and Allies

M.E.D.I.C. - Or Emmy is one of Imp's best friends. Emmy was met by Imp through an online chat room where they hit it off. When she came to Millennium, she was actually surprised that the little robot was...a robot. She thought the robot thing was just Emmy being cute. Imp finds Emmy to be absolutely adorable and loves hanging out with her. They make a weekly habit of watching cartoons at Imp's place.

Cantrip - Also a good friend of Imp's, when she first moved to Millennium, Imp stayed with Jess, Jess was met in the same online chat room as Emmy, and Angel really likes the girl a lot. Cantrip is also a magic user of considerable talent. Imp herself doesn't believe in magic and thinks that she's a mutant who is just very religious. She also tends to be Imp's opposite when it comes to social life. Imp being goofy and playful, while Jess is more serious and sultry. The two maintain a solid friendship.

Razira - The wolf heroine known as Razira is still an enigma to Imp, she doesn't know a lot about her, but she knows she's alright with the fuzzy lady. Imp loves everyone, and Raz is no exception. She thinks Raz's fur is pretty.

Zwein - Imp loves Zwein to death for all the wrong reasons. Zwein is eternally grumpy, which triggers Imp's need to make him feel better, even though there's no better to be had. She offers this in the form of hugs and playful banter, Which Zwein wants no part of. It doesn't stop her from trying though.

Stonemason - Imp likes stonemason's laid back, chill attitude. She'd totally hang out with him more if he didn't spend so much time outdoors. Imp being a city girl, she has no idea how to nature. She also thinks's he's a bottomless pit, and anyone that would compliment her cooking is alright by her.

Armory - Imp thinks Armory is far too serious and methodical, and that he needs to relax a little and smell the roses. He's on the list of people she feels like she needs to make smile more.

Kara McIlroy - Imp doesn't know Kara all that well, But she knows she's a fellow hockey fan, and is almost as quick with a bad joke as she is. She all around likes the lady

Wildeye - She hasn't quite gotten a read on Wildeye yet. He seems to take her jokes to heart or like they're confessions or something. Still, she likes the kittyman.

Captain Adamant - Or as she likes to call him, Captain Squarejaw. Imp see's something in Adamant, she's not sure what it is, maybe it's an inner kid, maybe it's a repressed childhood, but she can't help but feel like she wants to pull it out of him. She thinks highly of him, despite their limited interactions. She also thinks he's got a great bu-personality.

Sparrowhawk - Sparrowhawk is the one that invited Imp to the inner circle of the protectors, but Angel has a hard time thinking of her, or anyone else as boss really. She really thinks that Sparrowhawk needs a friend, or a hug, or something. Imps see's her as someone who knows what she's doing, however, and trusts her to make bigger decisions for the team. She also wants to get her to laugh, and thinks she's really pretty.

Cosmic Glory - Imp loves happy, cheerful people. They make her feel good, and it's always fun to see. Glory is just that. So she loves Glory to death.

The Peacemaker - Imp think's peacemaker is great. Kind and compassionate people like him are hard to come by, and she really admires him for that.

Angel's one of my best friends. She's funny, driven, and downright adorkable! - M.E.D.I.C.

Imp's like, a real chill dudette if I ever met one. Is dudette like, a word? I can't think of a better word for Angie, though. If it ain't a word, she'd like, make it one in a heartbeat. That's the kinda dudette Angie is. - Stonemason
