Description

And yet another X-Gen mini-bio, to signal my return to action!
Yay me!

Vanguard
Class: Female human mutant
Age: 15 (at the beginning of the series, by the end of it, she's 25)
Height: 1.70m
Powers: Her mutation is particularly hard to use, as it involves the channelling and redirection of kinetic energy through her body. This means that she is capable of absorbing kinetic energy by touch, and she's able to expel it through some other part of her body. For example, if she blocks a punch with one hand, then she absorbs the energy of the punch and can counterattack with a punch or a kick of ther own that will have the blocked attack's strength added to her own. This turns her ability into a mostly defensive one. As a side effect, it seems she has some degree of superhuman strength, or otherwise she wouldn't be able to lift the massive weapons she usually wields. One theory suggests that her chanelling system isn't perfect and some residual energy is always left within her, and she is able to permanently use this strength as her own.
Other abilities: As her background is slightly more militarized that the rest of her teammates, she is an expert in several military combat techniques, particularly Krav Maga, so she isn't just the best at defending of the whole team, but she is also has one of the most brutal hand-to-hand styles. She also is very adept at using firearms, both conventional and advanced. Her arsenal ranges from pistols and blasters to toned-down artillery pieces.
Roles: Tactical and long-range support, demolitions expert, pilot.
Archetypes: The Gunslinger, Sixth Ranger, Wrench Wench.

Originally belonging to a different, more militarized squad, Vanguard has become accustomed to always be moving between different places, getting used to different faces and overall, being without any true roots. When her team was wiped out, she was immediately transfered to the X-Gen, as the one responsible was none other than Michael Davids and the X-Gens, who were constantly dealing with him, could benefit from her experience in fighting him. She being a stranger into a team that was now more of a family than a group of coworkers or classmates, she was initially received with some hesitation, except from Weaver, who had met her before. Battle after battle, she has proven to be a valuable ally, not only because of her knowledge and ability, but also for her reliability, because they know she's got their backs. She is, behind her tough girl exterior, very curious and outgoing, and she has a great passion for photography, to the point she never leaves without her camera.
