Story Collector
Name: Venus Votticelli
Alias: Griffonage
Media Titles: Science-miss, The Paint Hero

Age: 16
Height: 5'5" (5'6" in costume)
Hair Color: Reddish-Brown (oil-slick black in costume)

Powers: Venus can manipulate the chemicals and associated reactions occurring within her body. She can fabricate or suppress naturally occurring chemicals like adrenaline and dopamine, and speed, slow, or stop reactions as they occur. For more complex effects and chemicals that aren’t naturally occurring, she relies on her knowledge of chemistry to craft chemical blends she can then ingest.
Once an external chemical enters her body she has full control over it. As such, she is immune to most poisons, diseases, and bacteria. Her body tends to default to canceling out anything external unless she makes an effort to allow it to happen, and returns to baseline functioning over time.
As a side effect of her powers, Venus has a fondness for the taste of chemicals, and a form of limited synesthesia that allows her to connect colors with tastes. She likes bright colors the best, and muddy ones the least. Naturally, she’s a big fan of color coding and tends to run a bit wild with highlighters whenever she has the chance.
- Grappling Hook - every hero needs one! A length of sturdy wire and a vicious steel hook allow Griffonage to get onto rooftops in a matter of seconds, and aid in her swift journeying across the city. It’s amazing what one can find in one’s attic, isn’t it?
- Mask - a domino mask over her eyes and a respirator over the lower half of her face help to conceal Griffonage’s secret identity. The respirator is easily detachable so that she can chug a potion on the go.
- Hydrophobic Clothing - the thick cloth of Griffonage’s shirt and pants is coated in wax on the outside, for easier cleanup after slinging paint around on her missions.
- Chemical Blends:
- Foam Balloons - water balloons filled with a chemical blend that expands into a big cloud of purple foam upon impact. The foam is soft and pliant for a few moments before hardening into a dense, somewhat brittle shell. Tastes like grape-flavored cough medicine.
- Hair Coating - a slippery black salve that bonds with hair much like conditioner. Used to disguise her hair color and discourage hair-grabbing. Stings a lot when contacting (other people’s) bare skin, and tends to drip.
- Neutralizing Dust - gray powder kept in a pouch at her waist. Can be sprinkled onto any of the chemical blends to cancel them out/speed their deterioration.
- Slingshot - a wooden slingshot with a sturdy rubber band that allows her to launch foam balloons from a distance.

Powers
Tavy can manipulate the shape of metal, whether that's sharpening it to an edge, flattening it to a disc, drawing it into a wire, or squishing it into some bizarre avant-garde desk sculpture. She can manipulate the shape of any metal she comes into contact with, though alloys are more difficult for her than pure elemental metals. The more complex the alloy, the more difficult it is for her to reshape. Tavy does need to be in close contact with at least part of the metal to reshape it - her powers work through paint or tarnish, but not across a room. The changes are permanent once set. She cannot change the properties of the metal - iron will always be iron and have its own properties, steel will always be steel and have the properties of steel. Her ability seems to work through the malleability and ductility properties inherent in all metals.
As a small child, Tavy originally thought she was psychic, because her first introduction to her powers came through imitating the Psychic Showdown arc of her favorite cartoon. Bending spoons turned out to be easy! Unfortunately, Tavy never got the hang of telepathy or telekinesis or any of the other psychic powers she was supposed to have.
Equipment
Aluminum foil - a full roll in a box, good for detail work or any sudden baking needs.
Copper pipe - hollow, probably a leftover from a plumbing project somewhere. Surprisingly conductive!
Steel-toed boots - OSHA certified safety!
Silver barette or silver hair ornaments - stylish and functional!
Gold pocketwatch on a gold chain - it doesn't work.
Platinum charm bracelet - a gift, with a charm for every year. Don't lose it.
Iron mask - wrought filigree, a dark delicate face-obscuring lace.

Name:
Chio Lynnwood
Alias:
Entwine
Media Title:
Silk, Weaver, Entwine
Gender:
Female (she/her)
Age:
16
Height:
5’10”
Eye Color:
Reddish green
As in the left is red and the right green
Hair Color:
Golden blonde with a brush of red.
Hair is straight and a little past her shoulders when down, often tied with a long ribbon.
Powers:
Chio is able to manipulate cloth so long as she is making physical contact with any piece of the weave. She can move any cloth under her influence as easily as one might their own hand as well as influence how rigid or slack cloth might be to soften an incoming blow or slip a band of cloth through a thin opening. For fine control she needs to focus, doubly so if she needs to use her cloth to do something she does not have a direct line of sight on. She can dully get a sense of what her cloth is touching, though it’s often a bit like trying to understand the shape of something using only the back of one’s hand. If using a bulk amount of cloth Chio isn’t able to do highly complicated movements.
Equipment:
Long ribbons she keeps wrapped around her arms and legs for use in quick attacks, she also keeps one wrapped around her waist as well as one in her hair.
Her outfit usually consists of a dress with some embellishing frills along with knee high stockings, anything that could give her plenty of cloth to use if need be.
