Name: Evanell (EV4n-ELL) Gender: Female, Straight, Ace Age/DOB: ~10 at Events, not on site Origin: Repurposed Earth, Icarus Lab, Fairport AL Family: While the ELLs are certainly all her family, she seems to show little interest in their activities Other: Shows little interest in families at all, actually Height: 5'7", a little taller than a typical ELL Weight: 100, still tiny though, all muscle, very sleek, and bears a striking resemblance to the body form of most of the Armacham assassin girls, of which she was supposed to be among the premier cloned variety Hair: very dark brown, silky and a bit flyaway, and currently cut short, though grows quickly and often she just hacks it all off Eyes: pale fog grey-blue, only a very slight tint of color, tends to stare, unblinking, at someone until they nervously look away, almond shaped, natural long lashes Appearance: light skin which has no scarring visible, but she's definitely been injured on the job before. She is extremely slender but not bony, and has an incredibly pretty face, she doesn't seem to know how pretty she is. Has surprisingly long and well kept fingernails, it's one indulgence that she has gotten used to on this world that she wasn't allowed early in her life Genetic Abilities: Evanell is 'silent, unseen, and deadly', she has a remarkable ability to cloak herself with or without the use of an Armacham Icarus outfit. Though there is still some small amount of distortion visually, even Vortally, electronically, or via other sensory devices, she simply cannot be easily seen or heard. Strong Vortal aura readers will detect her, but generally only after she's been lingering in one spot for a while, which isn't often. It's almost as though her aura dissipates while she's moving, and only catches up to her when she's motionless. However even then: she can remain completely still and only be seen Vortally, normal eyes or sensors will be completely unable to detect her if she just crouches into a corner and doesn't move. It's unclear how she makes so little sound, however, it may also be a mutation or physical aspect, as it doesn't fully show up on any of Melissa's notes about her DNA. It isn't that she is somehow masking the sounds, she's just... not making any. Though it is obvious she can detect Vortal people, they cannot 'reach' her mind, even Lane - or Alma - were unaware of her. Even other ELLs cannot truly link minds with her. |

Icarus Processing: Yes, during creation; as with most, this processing not only strengthened her body and bones but made them very light weight and flexible. She can contort in a variety of weird ways, often enough would cause herself damage, if not for her treatments. This processing definitely improved her Vortal potential (at that time called Telaesthetics by Armacham). She has exceptionally keen eyesight, and can easily focus on a distant target up to 1 mile away, though she can't read microprint or other such tricks with her vision, and she does require a decent amount of light on the target to see that far. She can be in complete darkness, however, and spot a brighter speck or movement if there is any light at all. | |
Skills or Profession: along with the Icarus processing, she was given extensive downloads and training, that which the other Armacham assassins get. So she is extremely talented in infiltration, climbing and rappeling, vent-crawling, tracking (mostly people), shadowing and crowd weaving, and observation techniques. She tends to keep her distance, as her favored weapon is that crossbow she's got, it has the range and she's never needed a scope. She is accurate with that, sniper rifles, and small guns, but also harpoon guns and grenade launchers, though she claims to dislike those quite a bit because they're loud and messy. Evanell is also deadly with hand held weapons such as knives, cat-claws, garottes, and heavy saps, preferring anything that doesn't get her messy. She can navigate tremendously well even in unexplored locations, and leaves absolutely no trace behind. She can recognize important paperwork or images, people, or buildings and landmarks at a glance. Notably she's among the only ELLs around that doesn't have nor know how to use a portal gun. | |
Personality: She's fastidiously clean for a reason - anything that's not hers, such as Your Blood or That Building's Ashes, will not vanish with her when she goes invisible. She is silent, also for a reason - she has a somewhat high and squeaky voice, shrill if she shouts, and doesn't like having to be loud. It isn't that she's unlikeable, but she is very anti-social, and just wants to be given a duty and let her have at it. She does have a penchant for swiping small items, particularly nail polish or ammunition, but she figures no one's going to miss them if it's in the ruins anyway. | |
Events or History: Evanell had been reworked several times before the Events, and was in processing as they occurred. Melissa discovered this line of ELLs, three of which were 'in the wild' and hadn't been recovered, but Evanell was right there in a vat on hold. When she was recreating some of the Pantheon, and working on those new ELLs, she reactivated Evanell and boy did that girl have some choice words about how things went wrong. Melissa, Renee, and Geoff are really the only people that she has ever bothered to get close to. Melissa, because she does feel she ows her her life; Geoff because, well, he's got guns and silence and is 'Vortally impenetrable' like she is; and Renee because she's the last of the assassins, and they did have one mission together that they've never forgotten. She has decided to pick up the Aperture-branded version of the Icarus suit, because she likes the contrast, and maybe the challenge to keep it completely clean and nice in this new world. Before everything was settled, she took it upon herself to patrol the Outlands, usually with one of Paxton's Replicas. Once at the Rookery, as they established different locations around the world, she decided that the Borealis would suit her best, because she kind of likes the chill air, and that white suit definitely works with all the ice and snow, making it considerably easier for her to huddle down and hide while looking out for Combine movement. |
