Name: Kitty Wolfe Gender: Female, straight Age/DOB: 26/1999 Origin: Repurposed Earth, AAEnrichment Center Family: At least three donor parents, unlikely to be related to anyone in the Pantheon Other: Has at least two children, daughter Kallie and son Dwight with Don, though this was originally 'arranged' and encouraged by Melissa they did to the work the old fashioned way; has other offspring designed and waiting, by Melissa's crafting (notably including Matilda with Mel and ... Arne Magnusson). Also note that Kitty was the surrogate that was used for a few months in order to properly gestate Keenan's new cloned body, and though she thinks this is all kinds of weird, she did find it hilarious that Wilson was too scared to ask her how she felt, because she's way stronger than he is... Height: 5'5" Weight: 110, strongly muscular and curvy, weight is considerably lighter than it would be due to Icarus treatments Hair: Dark brown, wooly/curly, usually as shown with poofs or tied back Eyes: Brightly green, usually look happy and wide Appearance: Light brown skin (darkens as she ages and because she's often out in the sun), very few visible blemishes due to incredibly damage resistant skin, prefers wearing blue and white, as shown, very much a 'fighter' in her posture particularly whenever the Combine are near; she is also quite loud when she's excited about something, hardly ever wears shoes and doesn't give a rat's ass about OSHA violations in the workplace: she'll put on sandals if she wants to, even in the old mine fields! |

Genetic Abilities: Extreme physical durability and strength, endurance, and damage resistance. All of these are at least five times normal Human levels, and her strength in particular is at least 8 times normal. (Yes, this exceeds even Wilson Carver and his son Geoff's, a fact which both of them admit is terrifying.) She can run for hours at a jog, and sprint without tiring for at least ten full miles. Physically the only thing that may actively damage her is radiation, but even then she recovers from sickness rapidly as well - so if she's been poisoned by radioactive goo all she really needs to do is isolate herself for a while until it 'passes' from her. Notably she is more or less what Wilson should have gotten from Armacham when he ordered Melissa. Mel recovers and heals at a stupendous rate, but Kitty doesn't actually take damage. | |
Icarus Processing: Yes, at age 3. This increased all of her physical traits immensely, but did not trigger any other Vortal communication or empathic skills. | |
Skills or Profession: Kitty would have become a bodyguard or even an assassin, with her toughness and brute strength. She did have numerous skill downloads and a good number of training sessions behind her when the Events occurred, but the practicality of living in a Post-Event world was what gave her all the real training she needed. She can spot good hiding places, as well as locations where an ambush would occur; she has experience with weaponry but prefers to use her bare hands and strength to get anywhere. With her abilities, she can basically make her own route through a ruin - the only thing that might get damaged is her clothing, after all. She and Geoff often had contests of strength when they were teens, Kitty being basically the only one of the Pantheon that could keep up with him, and later exceeded his ability. For the most part, Kitty busies herself now with clearing rubble, scouting, and in some cases getting refugees out of trouble by either barrelling toward an enemy to take them by amazed surprise, or by physically picking up whoever's there and getting them to safety sprinting along. | |
Personality: Kitty is self-assured and confident to the point of being absolutely casual in the face of dangers which would clearly destroy anyone else. After all, she's faced down GLADOS and the Combine, looked down the barrel of an Armacham Gunship cannon and laughed it off. She has literally stood under a building as it imploded - and the most she could say was that it got grit in her hair. It's hard to startle her, because her subliminal training kicks in keeping her at least aware - she isn't just blindly going into those situations after all, she's tough, but those around her might not be. She's always aware of this fact, even if it doesn't look that way. She can enjoy herself in more intellectual ways as well, she does enjoy playing card games with the refugees, and prefers the Mesa to the Enrichment Center most of the time because she has better access to fun games. She truly does love being a mother, too, though she admits that she has to be very careful to not do 'stupid strength tricks' around them lest they try and emulate her. | |
Events or History: Even though Kitty was among the younger of the Pantheon, she was always reliably stronger and durable in ways that most of the kids weren't - and so she was counted on during most of the 'big' events that they had to get through. Fighting GLADOS, retrieving the Cores, replacing them, and most other combat moments, Kitty was somewhere in the fray, often loudly so. Though she would prefer to have been kept on hand at the Center when the Combine arrived, but she was in fact pregnant with her first 'real kid' (that would be Kallie) at the time, and was sent back to Black Mesa for safety's sake. Kitty enjoyed remaining there, though, and since Don was also on hand to help with the cleanup of toxic messes and look for explosives, the pair of them could romp as they wanted, even down to the 'bottomless pits' where they got to explore even more weird goings on in the caverns inhabited by the Antlion hives. Once the Rookery was begun, it was clear that Kitty would once more be able to flex her muscles and strut her stuff - since the local Combine's destruction, it had gotten 'boring' and she really does relish being able to show off. |
