Name: Cirilla Riannon
Nickname: Ciri
Age: 22
Appearance: Ciri has ashen hair and emerald green eyes. She has a big scar on her left cheek, running from under her eye and she tries to cover it under a strand of hair. Her clothing is made from the finest materials but is travel worn. She wears a cotton cream white shirt with shiny silk stripe, a dark brown leather underbust corset, leather gloves, pants with studs and heeled boots. She accompanies this with a decorative silver belt with a golden buckle. Her sword hangs on a leather belt over her shoulder. Her sword has a 38½ inch blade, a silver-plated siderite steel core, and glyphs and runes throughout the length of the blade, and on the hilt. Ciri believes that her sword holds the key to focusing her ability.
Ciri has always had a noble and honest spirit, intolerant towards injustice and abuses of power. Since she grew up in challenging times and circumstances, she learned on her own that true strength is having the courage to fight against abuse no matter one’s power, and having compassion for the innocent. Despite gaining new powers, she maintains her original spirit and character. Since her reawakening, Ciri was saddened by losing so much of her time but still retained the same values she had. She finds the courage to defend the weak and innocent, and does not hesitate to stand up to corrupt, hypocritical authority figures or powerful beings.
Biography: Ciri is a young woman from 18th century London. She didn’t have any powers from birth and led an ordinary life. However, when she was 21, a temporal distortion linked to an experiment in the future engulfed her and brought the girl hundreds of years into the future. Her sudden arrival into the streets of New York City, in the middle of Times Square left her baffled, as she discovered to her horror that everything around her looked completely alien. She figured out that she had time travelled after asking the year and being ridiculed by the way she talked. Soon afterwards she learned about her powers and started to adjust herself to the modern age, while fighting for the good.
Special Ability: Blink
Ciri was exposed to high levels of Chronon energy during the malfunction of the time machine in the Precursor Project lab. She experienced the manifestation of her Chronon abilities under duress afterwards.
- Chronon Energy Manipulation: Ciri is able to manipulate the energy and force of the flow of time, allowing her to condense time into a quasi-tangible form or energy and utilize it for more physical usage, as opposed to simply controlling time itself. This includes creating constructs and firing blasts of temporal energy. The fast currents of time energy can be even used to deflect attacks at amplified velocity.
Chronokinetic Combat: Ciri is able to utilize chronon energy manipulation with her physical combat, making her attacks appear extremely fast. Ciri’s attacks appear fast enough to create a tunnel vision-like effect for her targets, which causes them to be slowed down. Though this is only how it appears to Ciri’s targets, as an outside observer would see a fight taking place at a regular pace.
- Localized Chronokinesis: Ciri has the ability to alter time relative to herself. By controlling the energy flow of time, she can force time to slow down at various rates within a focused area. Or she can speed up her own timeline to run faster. Her speed is such that she appears to “blink” out of existence to people operating within the normal flow of time. The temporal nature of her speed also allows her to avoid the usual problems encountered by other speedsters (friction, seeing and hearing at speeds, etc).
- Localized Temporal Rewinding: Ciri can rewind time to a few seconds, minutes, hours, days and years into the past around her. This method is often used by her as a means of healing as she returns her body to a previous healthy state. Thanks to this ability it is possible to say Ciri is immortal and immune to aging. Additionally she can use it on objects to reverse certain effects, or other people to heal them.
- Temporal Intuition: Ciri possesses innate and intuitive knowledge of the temporal movement, always knowing the exact date and time. She adapts immediately to new scales of timekeeping and calendars, regardless of what time zone she is in.
- Temporal Isolation: Ciri can isolate herself or others from most temporal effects while still existing inside of the timestream. A good example to this power is a big stone in a river, the water being the flow of time and the stone being a part of the river while also isolated from most of its effects. The water must pass by the stone while it just sits there and ignores the water’s effects. In a similar way Ciri is able to ignore temporal effects such as rewinding, reduction, acceleration, and even shifting. She is, however, not completely immune to the passage of time and its effects.
