Character Information
Summary
Heavy-handed renegade superhuman that has surprisingly good people skills. Failing that, she can just crush your windpipe with a love tap.
Goals
Survival first and foremost, after that comes staying under the radar and finding friends in high places. Also a horrible bigot.
Background
Somewhere between radical terrorists and corporate greed lies a grey zone where ideals are corrupted by profit. Gerisa's one of many projects sponsored by Humanis to make a new breed of superhuman that can serve as the face of mankind's superiority. Propaganda, populism and flashy slogans are so much more effective when they're backed up by a deified figure of the human form. Vat-grown, Gerisa's upbringing is horribly skewed towards brainwashing her into a puppet for her handlers. Unfortunately, the sense of superiority that was instilled into her took root better than intended and in one deeply manipulative turn of events she was smuggled out of the lab during a break-in. Her 'love interest' was rewarded with a snapped neck and an empty wallet.
Now, she's holed far out of sight despite her massive frame and approaches the prospect of making her life as glorious as possible in a cold, calculated way. She doesn't need to intimidate 'the lesser beings' when she can manipulate them to do her bidding just as well. So many are gullible and easy to believe she has their best interests at heart if she delivers. Trust isn't sacred, it's social capital. Gerisa's dead set on finding herself a nice perch to settle down on one day where she can stare down upon peons and enjoy her birthright as an inherently superior being. Until then, she has to get her hands dirty -- a welcome challenge, since she'll get the chance to prove her perfection in practice.
Narrative Significant Qualities
Snarky Teamwork - When a superhuman raised to think she's the be-all, end-all has to work with various metahumans and dregs of society, that supposed perfection is quickly humbled and/or reinforced.
Common Sense in a Racist - Gerisa is bigoted, but she's not going to be constantly undermining team cohesion with derogatory comments because that's fucking stupid. Others might not like her, but she's not outright antagonizing.
Larger Than Life - It's Gerisa's personal drive to become a figure, a myth and a legend. More impressionable people might fall for her theatrics and act and in a cynical world that's a breath of fresh air, even if it's malicious.
