APPEARANCE
Roxanne is skinny in the extreme, with very pale skin and dark features. Her eyes are brown, and her thin hair is black and cut very short. She tends to wear bold makeup, which emphasizes how pale her skin is by contrast. Her clothing style is punk, usually tight jeans with tears in the knees and a loose t-shirt. Her most distinctive accessory is the metal ring she wears over her middle finger, which covers the finger up to the last joint. Around her neck, she wears a leather collar that symbolizes how trapped she feels, being on earth and fallen. Both of her ears are pierced multiple times. She also has a lotus blossom tattoo on her left arm, and her nails are usually painted red. She can often be found with a cigarette between her fingers, because she smokes heavily.
PERSONALITY
Roxy has always been more selfish than the average angel. She appreciates the finer things in life, and isn't particular about what she has to do to get the money necessary to keep with this ideal. Although she may have regretted falling from grace, she would never regret being able to do what she wants to do when she wants it. It is this self-serving attitude that makes her particularly dangerous, but fairly predictable. Her loyalty can be easily bought, for the right price. Before her fall, she was a warrior angel, and she is accordingly aggressive when she feels insulted, or if someone tries to go back on their deal. The one area that she would never compromise is the integrity of her business practices. If she says that she is going to do something, and she is paid, she will stop at nothing to do it. She never goes back on her word or a deal. In between people, she is very good-humored and personable, but she commands respect.
SPECIES
Fallen Angel: She is a fallen warrior angel, talented with combat and fairly simple in personality. She had wings when she was an angel, but she no longer has them and can no longer fly. The talents she had before her fall are now diminished, and although she is still mostly incorporeal, she has chosen to inhabit a physical form for a number of years. She can still prevent others from being able to detect her presence, but more often than not, she enjoys the benefits of a physical form instead of remaining unnoticed. Her honorable streak only extends as far as keeping the bargains she makes, but sometimes she misses her previous life, even if she would never admit it.
ABILITIES
Incorporeality: Her natural form is incorporeal, and when she is incorporeal, she cannot be harmed by anything physical, and cannot be perceived by physical means. She can be perceived by psychics and other spiritual beings, however. In this form, she is also easily capable of moving through solid objects and seeming to teleport, because she can move instantaneously from one place to the next. She can move seamlessly between solid and incorporeal.
Psychic blasts: As a warrior, she wielded weapons, but her battle power was the ability to concentrate psychic energy and use it to attack the minds of others. These attacks do no physical damage, but cause a good deal of pain to any creature with a mind, no matter how simple. The blast will manifest to the victim as an extremely loud noise that they can only hear in their thoughts, causing mild to great pain, depending on the intensity of the blast. As a true angel, this power was strong enough that it could kill someone, but it has diminished to the point that the most severe form could only cause unconsciousness.
Psychic sense: She has a weak sense of the minds around her, and the emotions that have occurred in an area. Usually, it takes an unusually strong emotion to catch her attention, such as a violent death or a marriage proposal being accepted, but if a lot of people have had the same emotion in the area, she gets flashes of what they were thinking and feeling. This sense has been diminished the most greatly of any of her powers, and has become fairly weak.
Immortality: Regardless of the fact that she is now a Fallen angel, she cannot be killed by anything but another angel or a demon. If she is killed, she will reform in time, and return.
WEAKNESSES
Physically weak: She is weaker than the average human in her physical form, and cannot out-muscle anyone but a child. She tends to bring people in unconscious because of this, and is prone to physical injury.
Diminished power: Falling has cost her a good deal of her former power. She can no longer fly, her psychic sense is a shade of its former self, and her psychic blasts cannot kill. Even her physical strength is diminished from the previous levels, and a true angel could easily outmatch her if it came down to it. Although her magic is more potent on demons, it is almost useless on an angel, fallen or otherwise.
HISTORY
Roxanne was created as a Warrior Angel, a defender of all that is good and right. It was dull as shit. She fought alongside other warriors and won temporary victories, and then went somewhere else to start over again. She fought as a single dot in the masses, although they were some of the biggest battles between Heaven and Hell that had ever happened. No force on earth or elsewhere could stand against the combined might of her unit, and she remembers the victories they won fondly, even if they were the lesser of the experiences. But the undercurrent of her satisfaction was jealousy of those she was protecting. She realized before long that she was one of the few who felt unsatisfied by that, but then again, as a scout, she was able to watch humans more than the rest, and she was jealous of how they were free to chase whatever they wanted in life, and could make themselves into whatever the dreamed of being. She had never been given the opportunity to be anything but someone to hold a sword, faceless cannon-fodder. Wanting more out of her life, she began to skip battles. At first, no one noticed, because her unit was massive. After a few battles, however, she was discovered, and cast down as a Fallen Angel.
Upon first falling to earth, she was bitter and angry. She spent most of those early days as a phantom spectre in the wilderness, far away from civilization. She threw herself at any being that had the misfortune to cross her path, and many travelers lost their sanity to an invisible force that attacked their minds. Eventually, this wrath subsided, and she began to remember the reasons she was skipping battles in the first place. She found her way to the human cities and took a physical form, which has changed over the centuries. She discovered the pleasures of mortal life, the vices that she wouldn't have ever been able to partake in. She also found out about money and greed, and set out to get rich, so that she could have more of those pleasures.
A few years ago, she stumbled across the Axium Corporation, drawn by the despair and fear of their subjects. Instead of capturing her, they offered her a job tracking down new subjects, because her talents lent her the ability to find them more easily than most. Because of the extreme amount of money they offered, she accepted the job immediately. To this day, she can usually be found tracking down her next target and bringing them in for profit. She likes to spend her money on cigarettes, alcohol, good food, and other vices, and has been known to release her subjects if they offer a substantial enough bribe. She lives in an expensive apartment near the art district.
