Name: Valerie Law
Face Claim: Samantha Wright
Nickname: Val or Law
Age: 20
Orientation: Completely Unsure
Ability: Super Strength and Increased Resilience
Valerie has the ability of super strength. She is strong enough to lift a medium sized car and throw it with relative ease. Her strength is due to the fact that her muscles are far denser and compressed, allowing her to perform great feats of strength and hit with a lot more force than a normal person would.
Also in her favor is her increased resilience. Her bones are more dense as to handle her super strength, and her pain resistance is heightened to dull out how much she feels should she strike something with high amounts of force. Her skin is also thicker than average.
Limitations and Side Effects:
Although she is strong, straining herself too hard can have very dangerous consequences for Valerie. If she hits with too much force or attempts to lift too much weight, her skin will actually tear and rupture. While her bones may be able to handle most of the force she exerts, her skin won’t be able to contain the bunching muscle considering how tightly packed it is already should she exert herself extremely. This can leave her entire arm torn open and bleeding, and can be a serious issue if not tended to. Her body naturally regenerates faster than an average human, but that level of damage can leave Valerie suffering from blood loss or even kill her if she bleeds out.
Another thing Valeria must be careful of is keeping herself flexible. She has to stretch everyday, otherwise her muscles will cramp up. This can actually lock her body up completely, and if that happens she requires shots to force her body to completely relax, which then incapacitates her for a while depending on the strength of the drug. So every day she has to make time for it.
Even though she has increased resilience, she can still feel pain and can take damage. She’s not invulnerable to damage, she just has extra resistance to it.
The usual side effects of someone with super strength also affects her. Sometimes Valerie has trouble with everyday things, and can often accidentally break or crush things with her sheer strength if she isn’t careful to be gentle.
Valerie’s ability solely relies on her physical prowess. Staying in top shape will help increase her strength and her control over it. Luckily, Valerie practices every day and has excellent control over her ability. (Except for those very few moments.)
The woman entered a small room where a younger woman was waiting in a chair, tapping her foot on the ground as she waited. The girl was admittedly cute, with blonde pixie cut hair. She was petite, probably standing around 5'3". However, every inch of her small frame was muscle. When the other woman entered, she looked over and smiled a tad shyly, seeming a little awkward as the lady sat.
Valerie Law, correct?
"Yes.” She says with a short nod of her head, clasping her hands together.
I'm glad you could make it. We just want to ask you a few basic questions, and then a few personal ones. I promise they aren’t too bad.
“Ah... Alright. Well…. What do you want to know?”
Well, let’s start with the very basics. How old are you?
Valerie seems a little relieved by the question. “Ah. 20.”
Alright. And what ability do you posses?
“Super strength and increased resilience.”
Oh! Two abilities then! Impressive.
Valerie seems to be a little embarrassed and looks away for a moment. “I…. Thank you.” There’s a second or two of silence before the interviewer goes on.
So… Can you tell me about how you manifested?
“Oh. Um… Well it happened one day I was practicing lifting with my father. Things were going well, and I was bumping up in weight to do a clean and jerk. It was when I was doing it that I manifested. Suddenly the weight felt like nothing at all, and I… Uh… I accidentally lifted it so fast that it slipped out of my hands and hit the ceiling before making a dent in the floor.”
Oh my.
Valerie smiled a little before she went on. “Yeah. I kind of freaked my dad out, but he was excited too. Turns out my aunt was a mutant too, so it kind of ran in the family. I just always thought she was really strong.” She admitted with a small laugh.
When did a recruiter come get you?
“Umm…. I think five days later. Then I was taken to Acton Vale. My father actually got to live close by to help me lift. He had been helping me train in lifting from the very beginning. It just would’ve felt… weird without him.” The interviewer smiles..
That’s very sweet, Valerie. Can you tell me more about your father?
Valerie brightened at that, seeming to grow a tad more confident. “Sure. My dad has always been really supportive of me when I was a kid. He… Uh… He had to raise me alone. My mom died in childbirth. But he never blamed me for it. And when I wanted to start lifting, he let me come with him to train.”
It sounds like you’re very close with your father.
“I am. He’s my best friend.” That earned another smile from the interviewer, and an awkward, unsure smile in return from Valerie.
So how is he taking your transfer to Bellefonte?
“Pretty good. He say he’ll miss me, and I’ll certainly miss him too. But he also thinks it’s probably a good thing. Says I should make friends.”
I’m certain you’ll make plenty of friends, Valerie.
Valerie shifts a little, averting her eyes. “Ah… I don’t know. I’m not really a… social person I guess.” She admits while staring at her hands.
You’re a very sweet girl, Valerie. I’m sure plenty will want to get to know you more.
After a few seconds, Valerie suddenly flushed. She stared at the floor, fidgeting with her hands. “Oh… Ah… T-thank you.” She finally managed to say. The interviewer giggled a little before nodding.
I think that will be all. Thank you for your time, Valerie.
“I… It was nothing."
