Fade Out

[ngm_mojoverse]

Real Name: Fade Out
Alias: Eugenie 'Gene' Wilkes
Group Affiliation: MADCAP
Appearance: In her civilian identity, Fade Out is a young brunette woman, about 5'3" and 110 lbs., more cute than beautiful. She does not try to look more noticeable as she prefers working in the background. She wears a jumpsuit colored to match her eyes, with a short black jacket over it and a half-mask that covers her face but not her hair.

Personality: Fade Out commits to MADCAP plans to bolster her own self-esteem. Though she puts up a bold front, she's a mass of insecurity deep inside and desperately needs to feel important and special. She gets that two ways. First, finding out about other's secrets. Second, by being an essential part of the plan to break apart Angel and Aiden. Both satisfy the need extremely well. Especially as she plans to be in the friend role for Angel and being a shoulder the broken-hearted fuzzy girl will cry on.

Fade Out enjoys matching wits with the police and superheroes, particularly when she can publicly humiliate them. She likes to create panics and chaos in crowds, though she is a bit squeamish about using violence directly herself against non-combatants. She has no such compunctions about anyone who would try to stop or capture her.

When she is walking around as Eugenie, Fade Out has a light Southern accent and claims she is from San Antonio, Texas. She actually does not know a thing about the city except where it is located. She tries to bluff her way through anyone asking about her background.

Powers: Fade Out is a psionic with the power to steal her victim's memories for herself telepathically. This can be any sort of memory, from a specific fact or event to something as subtle as the existence of a skill or power (or how to use it). She can only steal one particular memory from a person at a time. For example, she could make Aiden forget that he can turn invisible, but not all his superpowers. Also, the victim can heal back the memory within in a day, but he can also get the memory back instantly if he's somehow reminded of what he forgot. This can be as simple as a teammate saying "Hey, turn invisible!" (if Fade Out stolen the memory of its existence), or seeing the combination lock whose combination is the memory she stole.

While memory loss/theft makes Fade Out a formidable opponent, it's not much help in a straight-up fight, and she knows it. She has a couple other powers (crippling confusion and mental agony attacks) she can use in a pinch, but they're of relatively little use do to their tiring effects and other restrictions. She tends to fight from the rear, coming up with plans for the team and mentally sniping from cover whenever possible. She's fond of causing targets to simply forget the last few seconds (her crippling confusion) – while they're temporarily stunned and without their bearings, Primetime or Ingenue can attack them. As a last resort, she carries a laser blaster given to her by Propsmaster and isn't afraid to use it.
