SKILLS
superhuman abilities Possession, or more accurately, spirit translational; Raisel possess the ability to possess -- a talent carried out through her ability to move her own spirit around. Raisel can translocate any part of her spirit into another, whether it be only her hand to control another's hand, or her whole being. The spirit of the owner of the original body is stored away, though, depending on the mental strength of the victim, may be conscious. Furthermore, determination can override Raisel's control of another's body. Lastly, Raisel's power essentially consists of her moving her spirit to other places -- leaving her own body lifeless and open to attack. No one is particularly sure of what will happen if her body was to die, or if she were to leave it too long.
talents horrendous at art, though Raisel would like to kindly correct you -- it is Picasso. An excellent shooter.
weapons A pistol.

PERSONALITY
A rationally minded woman, Raisel's attitude and appearance has an air of coldhearted calmness almost reminiscent of a robot. Ladylike but nevertheless sharp, what Raisel lacks in physical strength and aptitude she makes up in wit: her tongue is most definitely sharper than her sword.

Indeed, Raisel is a vain creature, and though predominantly quiet her pride does not manifest itself as a shy one. Raisel's calm confidence exudes everywhere, and though she continually claims that she is fair and non-judgmental, at heart she believes that as a superhero, she is inherently and naturally better than those without powers. Only the powered contain the intelligence and the cleanliness to lead this world. Raisel's appearance rarely falters; she has learned to endure any sort of mental abuse and torture with an outwardly calm demeanor. Raisel's stoic mask is not entirely a mask - the combination of her endurance and her typically rational mindset has turned her into a rather cold, often harsh person. Her tongue has a tendency to lean towards the sarcastic, and though she has the option of masking her words with flowery, flattering speech, more often than not she will edge upon icy disdain. Her stoicity is only broken through with smiles that can range from true happiness to scathing smirks, but never does she cry in front of anyone else. Her sense of pride is too strong for her to show that kind of weakness.

Raisel is no idealist -- pragmatic and even cynical, Raisel has a clear view on life and her surroundings. She is in no way a pessimist, though if it had to be scaled, her thoughts would lean more towards pessimism than optimism. A little cynical and even brackish, Raisel's words can be harsh, but often she feels it is necessary. After all, though the truth hurts, lies are often (to her) worse. Raisel is blunt and straightforward to the point of being rude. She seems to think that blanketing opinions in flowery prose and thought is, entirely useless, which is definitely a weakness for her. White lies are not exactly a concept she grasps -- after all, people want to know the truth, right? She acts impulsively, without thinking, and often blurts exactly what is on her mind, even if she shouldn’t. However, there is a sort of compassion and kindness in her words honesty -- Raisel still is able to keep from being a jerk while being honest, though she is a firm believer in honesty.

A tomboy through and through, many of Raisel's mannerisms can be considered rude and brackish. Being raised in a house filled of men has certainly showed its effects on her personality -- with a snarky and almost crude sense of humour and a temper to boot, Raisel has spent much of her life being "one of the boys". Needless to say, fragility has never been something that Raisel has wholly accepted -- watching others cry almost always makes her feel completely awkward, and she would rather die than allow someone see her cry. Raisel thoroughly dislikes appearing or feeling weak and often she cannot help but feel a slight bit of scorn towards those that do.

Raisel, nevertheless, possess a great aptitude for compassion, though her compassion may come out differently than expected. A firm proponent of tough love, if Raisel finds something she deems as weak, instead of coddling the poor, sorrowful soul, Raisel will insist upon strength and firmness. In many ways this paints an undesirable image of Raisel -- that she is not as compassionate and kind as she should be -- but nevertheless, Raisel is kind and genuinely wishes for strength to be build up so that whoever is hurt is not so easily knocked down the next time around.
