Liquid Ice

On a small moon circling the only habitable planet in the Ellisar system, a military base goes about it business with no clue that the deep shadows cast by bright floodlights hide a single intruder. Bypassing security system after security system the intruder had no trouble making it to the complex in the center of the base that held the island’s mainframe computer. Suspended from the ceiling by a single metallic monofilament, the pale figure pulls a small memory crystal from her pack and slips it into the proper slot. Waiting for the information to complete downloading, the figure turns to a second screen and brings it to life; searching through the personnel file simply to satisfy idle curiosity. {I wonder what they say about me now…?}

Known Equipment
HUNTER Gauntlets:
Left Hand: Completely covers the left hand from elbow to fingertips. Constructed of an unspecified lightweight metal with medium durability. Capable of generating a small round energy shield two foot in diameter for a short length of time. Recharges automatically.

Capable of generating either an energy blade or claws depending on current configuration. Last known configuration was claws. Subject does not have the knowledge to change configuration.

HUNTER Uniform: Constructed of a lightweight, durable, heat retaining, oil resistant and waterproof material. Black, one piece, form fitting, sleeveless coverall. No armor potential.

((OOC: Energy output only equal to iron.))

{So that’s what “Elemental” means. Latent abilities? I had no idea. I’m going to have to find this Dr. Aki Sakura.}
A small beep indicated that the download was complete and Kharis quickly switched off the monitor in front of her and retrieved her crystal, returning everything to the state in which she had found it before climbing back up the length of her grappling line to the small hole she’d cut in the ceiling.
{Forget this stupid war. I’m leaving this system – for good. Aki Sakura, not an Emidarian name. She has to be from outside the empire. Emidar be damned. Time for a little space travel.}
((OOC:
Skills at a glance:
1.2x speed and reflexes
Good with claw weapons
Decent with swords
Can block decently with weapon or shield
Is sneaky, about as competent as any basic street thief would be.
Handicaps at a glance:
Not good at deflecting with either weapon or shield, or setting up counters
Can’t use firearms, especially not at close range
Has potential for elemental abilities, but does not have any yet
Knows little of Althanas customs or way of life, making it harder to blend in or do things unnoticed. (Reduces effectiveness of stealth skills)
Her hacking skills are almost useless since she can barely read or write Trade Speak and there are no Emidarian computers lying around.
Gear at a glance
What basically amounts to a thinsulate waterproof catsuit. Consider it a sexy tier leather with nice lining and a special oil coating.
Slip resistant unarmored sneaky boots, consider them made of tier 2 leather.
A pair of gauntlets, although they are solid metal it is an alloy not found on Althanas. For classification purposes consider them tier 2 leather with thin iron plates. Not great as far as armor goes but they are comfortable and fairly flexible.
Iron equivalent energy claws, 2 blades roughly 12 inches long, can be used continuously for an entire thread, though multithread continuous use could destroy the emitters as they do need time to cool down and recharge.
Steel equivalent energy shield, similar to a rounded buckler, only roughly 10 inches across that is projected either on the back of an open hand or top of a closed fist, the change is automatically trigged by hand movement. Maximum 3 post continuous use. One post recharge for one post use. Can be used to block a single focused magical attack; however doing so will consume any remaining charges and trigger a 5 post recharge time. Obviously this has to be something like a fireball or lightening strike that is focused on a single area not too much wider than 10 inches (ie, a pretty low level version of such spells).
Iron equivalent energy knife, mostly for domestic uses but can be used as an emergency back up weapon.
Belt with basic survival consumables. No armor potential unless you happen to stab directly for the belt buckle.
