Anna Angelus (Heroes Uprising)

Honor is all fine and dandy, but what's the point if it gets you nowhere and what you protect is destroyed anyway?
Anna Angelus

Name: Anna Angelus
Codename: Charge
Alias: N/A
Height: 5'5
Age: 26
Weight: 128 lbs
Alignment: Neutral Good
Identity: Secret
Species: Homo-superior
Race: Caucasian
Personality:
Anna is a calm, stoic and collected person, always rational and planning the next move. However, she has a very short fuse for insults against her friends and family, and will go out of her way to protect them or even just defend their name. This usually causes explosions around her when she is truly angry at her opponent.
Has a person who's lost so much, she is also amongst the most emotionally mature members of the SXM, and also one of it's oldest members. She often tries to act as a "big sister" to the younger members, or even just Harry and Filipe due to their infinite ignorance and immaturity.
Despite this, she is prone to her own fits of childish behavior, especially when involving HUNTER or any mention of her past, like her brother's, or Alisa's death.

Skills:
-Hand to hand combatant: Anna can fight hand to hand and uses this in combination with her powers for effective combos and attacks. Her skills have improved over time, to the point she was able to hold her own against several highly trained, two of them superhuman, being overwhelmed by attrition alone

-Leadership skills: She can effectively lead a squad, and has been trained by Fawkes in this very aspect, mostly teamwork, fast decision making, and Covert Operations.

-Multilingual: She speaks English. German, Romanian and Japanese, as well as a little Portuguese thanks to Filipe. Since her memories returned, all the languages she spoke were made much clearer

Weapons:
-Wölfe: A personalized bike made especially to outfit Anna's powers, being able to use kinetic energy as a power source to reach speeds in the upper limits of 500 km/h. Perhaps one of the most powerful engines and transportation vehicle know to man, extremely resistant to harm (made to withstand the high speeds), and built to take full advantage of energy it is provided.

Power:
Anna is a mutant with total control over kinetic energy. She predominantly uses this power to cause controlled explosions for attacking. Her powers have grown from needing physical contact, to simply having the target in the field of vision. She's gained control of her powers to a point she can use multiple attacks, including fire and ice. While she is using her power, her eyes turn red

-Molecular Acceleration: Anna has the power to take the potential energy stored in an object and convert it to kinetic energy thus “charging” that item with explosive results. She can charge any matter, even molecules in the atmosphere, enabling her to create explosions out of seemingly thin air. The only real limitation to this ability is the time required to charge the object. The larger it is the more time it takes. She can charge the object by though, and his limited by her line of sight. Her powers are closely related to her state of mind. She as performed such feats as instantly charging massive buildings. She still prefers to use the physical charging, as she now does it instantly, able to punch a floor and cause the entire area to explode around her.

-Enhanced Agility: Anna's ability to tap energy also grants her superhuman agility and dexterity.

-Enhanced Strength: She can use kinetic energy to enhance her own strength, enough to punch through solid rock. She does this by controlling the energy upon impact of her attacks.

-Static Interference: Ability to create static, because of the charged potential energy always in her body, that shields her mind from detection and intrusion by even the most powerful telepaths. The shield has the added effect of destabilizing (but no nullifying) touch based powers.

-Minor brain manipulation: Ability to "charge" the kinetic energy within a person's brain, allowing a subtle influence over any sentient mind. This power allows Anna to compel others to believe what she says and agree with anything she suggests. More powerful minds can resist the effect.

-Healing: She can stimulate the kinetic energy of cells can heal her own wounds to an extent. It's unknown if she can do the same to others, but her healing isn't as effective as William's.

-Thermokinesis: She can control kinetic energy in atoms, controlling their collision and as such the temperature around her. She can both decrease and increase the temperature, although her range isn't as great as Filipe or Menace
--Cryokinesis: By directing the cold waves with her physical motions, she can create ice for attack. She cant control the actual ice, so she uses this in direct attack, forming the solid ice as spikes from both the air and the ground. She can also create shields
--Pyrokinesis: She can use her physical motions to create fire as well, but again, she cannot control the fire, so she has to direct the attacks at the opponent before hand. She usually sends out either fireballs or streams of fire from her punches

-Electrokinesis: By causing the kinetic energy to cause atom collision, she can cause eletrcial discharges from anywhere in her body. She again can't control them once she forms them, so she again needs to direct the attacks with physical movement

-Chronokinesis: Be slowing the kinetic energy in movement, Anna can cause everything around her to slow down or even completely stop. However, she must keep and active control
--Super speed: By increasing her own movement energy, she can move at increased speeds. She can do this to others as well.

-Kinetic Energy Manipulation: She can use pure kinetic energy as a form of attack, launching concussive blasts of varying degrees and power. Her upper limits are unknown
--Energy Form: She can assume the form of pure kinetic energy. She has only done this on one occasion

Bio:
Anna's past was mostly considered normal, until recently when it was revealed thanks to the appearance of her old "family", AVALANCHE.
She was born in Germany, and orphaned pretty young. Her brother Igneel looked after her for most of their early childhood. When Igneel was older, around 12, he was taken in by Sefirot's father, and experiments were performed on him. He survived, and the both of them started living in Sefirot's remote village. When his powers manifest, he and Anna were outcasted. Fortunately, Sefirot himself, and Faust, another child who was experimented on were also in the same situation, and they became friends, almost like family.

When the boys turned 18, they all left the village. Settling down on the first place they got tickets too (Japan) they formed a mercenary/assassination group called AVALANCHE...that didn't kill anyone that wasn't deserving.
As the years passed, Anna became interest in joining AVALANCHE, but Igneel wouldn't let her. one day. Igneel meet Bernard on a mission, and saved him. Bernard turned out to have powers as well, so Igneel eventually let him join the group, which angered Anna. She searched for some training from Sefirot, who was already shutting himself off. However, the "coolness" he gave off had Anna infatuated with him. At the same time, while she did hit it off badly with him at first, she became good friends with Bernard

Soon, the group was called back to the village due to Sefirot's dad's death. There, Anna and Bernard started to grow closer. However, before anything could happen, Sefirot found the truth about his past and finally lost it. He attacked the village in cold blood, as Anna and Bernard returned. He then switched his targets to her in an attempt to throw Igneel off his game. Igneel, however, shielded her sister with his life, and died in Bernard's arms, telling him to protect Anna. This proved to be the proverbial trigger, as Anna unleashed her mutant powers on Sefirot, and defeated him utterly. As she was about to deal the finishing blow, Faust stopped her, not waiting her to become a killer. However, Sefirot took the chance to nearly kill her. Anna managed to react instinctively and destroy Sefirot's brain, leaving him in a coma. After that, Bernard took Anna with him and escaped the village.

However, before they could make it somewhere safe, the Hunters came for them. Bernard gave his freedom to save her, and left her somewhere safe. When she woke up, her brain blocked out her entire past life due to the shock, as well as her powers
Anna grew up a normal kid from there, finding a good foster home in Romania, until one day, she was kidnapped. In the fear of being harmed, her eyes turned red, and she start to exploded everything she touched. She uses this to escape, but killed the ones that kidnapped her. After some time, Yamairo contacted her, and helped her gain control of her skill. She then became an active member of Yamairo's squad, and helped train any new recruits.

She did her best to keep the future soldiers at bay while her team handle Zulan and the possible destruction of DC

When the fight with Zulan ended, she left the group alone and trained for the next two weeks, mastering her ability so as to use it without physical contact. She later returned to help the group fight Velon. During the fight, after everyone was beaten and Sandra was injured, she fought Velon one on one. When German arrived, he shoot and killed her. Her body taken to the warehouse where Ledge's blood was used to resurrect her. She had a rematch with Velon later during the destruction of Agency.

When Milo was kidnapped, she helped the others in the rescue attempt. They were captured and she lectured Filipe about trusting Kathy. She was later proven wrong, when she helped rescue them

After defeating Samuel, and while the some other group members went after Sindus, she went with Yama to invetigate a possible power related explosion. Thanks to a girl who could supercharge powers, she turned out to case the explosion of the building and nearby surroundings, showing that her skill can grow even more. She ended up trapped in a cave in with the girl, Alisa, and developed a connection with her during that time. This later turned out to be attraction, and she ended up involved with her, much to the amusement of Filipe, James, Harry, Ezekiel and Kano.

After that incident she helped the group rescue the evolved humans and joined the SXM. When she returned from Asgard she helped the SXM and went to the tournament to save Sandra facing Rail who she forced to surrender. She later fought Zulan in the second round. Her own inability to stay calm proved fatal, as Zulan defeated her, took her powers, and brutally killed her by exploding her body, making so no one could bring her back. She was last seen in soul, refusing to enter heaven and leave her friends behind, only to be forced to do so. Samuel later revived her
and forced her to join his group she fought Riya and Filipe loosing to the latter.

Yama took her with them, and while at Genosha, she again started to attack, only to again be stopped by Filipe. The next time she woke up, Fawkes talked to her, and it was revealed that there may by another reason for her helping Samuel.

An incident with Alisa caused her to blow up a wall, and that inadvertently saved her life, as Filipe arrived to investigate and caught Vega, an assassin, trying to kill her. After a brief scuffle, the demon attack began, and she joined her old friends in the battle. She was able to defeat several demons and later fought against Elemental during the Secrete Wars. She was nearly killed again by Zulan but Yamairo saved her. She helped the team a lot over the next period of time and later during the Superhero registration arc. She joined Anti-Registration and helped out in various battles. She was nearly killed several times and helped go to save Sandra, Alisa, Samuel, and Riya.

During the darkness arc she was mostly in the sidelines, helping out in the final attack.
She was next seen when the Skrulls attacked. Legacy took the chance to kidnap William, and she was forced to run with Alisa, eventually finding Samuel who saved them.
They went with the group to Olympus and watched the fight.

She was next seen fighting off Namini's attack on the island of Genosha. She managed to survive, and witness Namini reviving everyone. She was left to guard her, but once Namini awoke she quickly left her behind
She was next seen fighting off the aliens in the final attack by SXM.

During the Phoenix Alliance arc, she and Alisa were kidnapped early so she was unable to help. At the end, she, along with the others, were rescued.
She was later made the sub leader of the covert operations squad of the SXM should Fawkes by absent (which happens a lot), placed along with Harry, Rail and Leah. They started training in the area right away.

After that, during the brimstone arc, she helped defense Genosha from the Akatsuki by attacking Deidara and keeping him busy. She fought him again, at the island at the center, and beat him by suddenly accessing flight, using kinetic energy.
It was then she realized her powers were different. After that, Poseidon helped confirm this on the same visit he made to arrest her. During the Olympus arc, she was thus mostly gone, until the very end where she and her squad helped track down Jason, who had Typhon in his body. After that, Filipe explained to her the extent of her powers

The next arc proved to be the one where everything about her was revealed. She was sent on a mission to Japan, which was really a trap set by AVALANCHE members Hu-Ren and Zin-So. Zin had become the new leader, and decided to bring back every possible member in an attempt to get the team stronger again. Anna tried her best, but her team was beat in a surprise attack, and she was taken. She was given back some memories, but not the entire story. After, she fought both Manny's group to get Eston, who had also been a member and the SXM as AVALANCHE took orders from their new boss, Iliria.
However, when Zin tried and succeeded in bringing back Sefirot, the situation was soon out of his hands. Sefirort tried to kill Anna in revenge, and as Anna seemed lost, Alisa, whose powers were evolving, came to help her. However, Sefirot quickly killed her, and left Anna a broken wreck for the second time. However, just like last time, she proceed to nearly defeat him. But this time, he escaped into the lifestream from where he started to corrode the planet. Milo and Sandra managed to get him out by forcing his last piece of being, his consciousness, out of the lifestream. When he got out, he was soon faced by Anna, who attacked him, and turning into pure energy for the final blow, finally defeated him and laid her past to rest.

She disappeared for a few weeks, and returned at the point of her old village. She reminisced for a while, and then went back to her team, recovering in time to help Yama deal with the Isabel homunculus that had been made by Iliria.
She spent the next two arcs, Decimation and the Legacy virus arc, dealing with the homunculus, helping her learn emotions and think for herself. When Marie tried to free her, she was the first to agree, followed by Harry.
When the Hunters finally started to appear, she finally found out what happened to Bernard. She first fought him by the coast with the SXM's help, and then, later, during the actual war, with the 3 members of AVALANCHE that remained.
Zin and Ren were taken out, and Faust was near death. Anna, using her powers, managed to get him an opening, wounding herself in the process. Faust finally managed to injure Bernard and break his reality marble, and died a peaceful death. Anna was taken back to get healed as Milo ended the fight.

Five months passed, as she returned to the SXM. She's helping Rachel deal with the loss of Filipe, with the strange assistance of "Isabel".
After that, James gave her a very strict mission to infiltrate Iliria's Hellfire Club, under the pretense of rejoining AVALANCHE. As such, she's been rather absent from the others, showing up occasionally when Iliria does. She tried hard to get Katy out of Jin's grasp without revealing herself.

During her infiltration, Dark Reign was set in motion. It was during this time she met Bernard once again, and thanks to an excuse, started to take her frustrations on him. The lose of Alisa, and the knowledge that Bernard was still out there slowly started to drive her to an edge.
After almost a year of infiltration, Iliria lost her control and became an Outer God, Lilith. She and AVALANCHE officially left her employment and she got Amber to stop her former "boss", sealing her back into the brimstone dimension
She then rejoined the SXM, and watched as the team disbanded during No More Heroes

Milo personally invited her to join the Shadow League. Her time alone had cemented her depression, and she turned to alcohol for comfort. Harry and Marrie attempted to help her as best they could. However, despite this, she was still a very powerful member of the team, and helped in fights against the Serpent and Sutur
