Full Name: Carmine Quinteste He'nateth
Age: 41
Race: Shen'Ihr
Status: Active
Faction: Power-wielder Hero, Tier 1
Appearance
Shen'Ihr are known to be very beautiful by human standards in somewhat inhuman ways. Carmine exemplifies this concept wholly. She is a short woman, standing only five feet and two inches, and slight of frame. Her skin is an odd, healthy pale that seems to reflect the light unnaturally, and her ivory locks give her a rightfully alien appearance. Another oddity is her inhuman eye color; both eyes are a deep maroon hue, sharply offsetting her pale skin and hair.
She dresses conservatively, being a shy individual, but in her own home, away from scrutinizing eyes, she tends to dress as if she were back home. Her dresses are little more than thin shifts, often exposing the extremely intricate tattoos covering the upper half of her body.
Powers
Like all Shen’Ihr, Carmine possesses an ingrained hatred for magic. She has taken it a step further, however; as an Inquisitor hopeful, seeking out and destroying magic in all of its forms is not only her duty, it is her desire. Her abilities reflect this; as a psion, she is extremely adept at both detecting and counteracting magical energies. While her understanding of the mechanics of magic is not quite as deep as her hatred of it, she studies the craft intently when given the chance.
Carmine is one of the few psions who do not practice melee combat; all of her attacks and defenses are based on sheer willpower. Her abilities center around heightening her ability to detect magic, then overcoming its presence with psionic force of will. She also has the ability to cause her projectile attacks to phase through solid barriers, such as mage barriers, to strike the vulnerable targets behind them, and has refined control of her ranged attacks. Many are not only honed into sharp spikes, but can change direction with but a thought, pursuing nimble opponents or surprising them with right-angle and hairpin turns.
Another notable aspect is Carmine’s clarity of mind; her concentration is significantly enhanced. To most, her body is also an immovable object; unless she wishes to move it is almost impossible for a wielder of comparable power to unseat her. Furthermore, her psionic defenses are retributive, lashing out at her attackers reflexively and returning every ounce of damage they do to her in full.
