Origin:

Anastasia is a paranormal, a sort of altered human who gained her powers during the White Event, an incident that set the New Universe apart from standard reality. Her powers are psionic in nature, and involve the healing of others through applied empathic energies.

Known Powers:

Natural Psi Powers (Empathic)

Healing 3 (a): Anastasia can, on touch, heal any injuries to herself or other people. While she can perform the lesser healing provided by the Healing 1 talent, Anastasia can instead take about a minute of her time to completely heal other people, at Excellent (20) rank.

Healing 1 (t): Anastasia can, on touch, heal any injuries to herself or other people. She can use this power at Incredible (40) rank, recovering up to 40 lost Hpts per application of this power in only one round. Very useful, indeed.

Cure Disease (s): Anastasia can also cure anyone of disease, either in viral or bacterial form, at Amazing rank. This requires a power FEAT roll against the virulence rank of the offending infection or disease. This cures the disease, but not any damage caused by it.

Regeneration (t): Stasi has shown on at least one occasion that her power can function even while she's unconscious. It can help to overcome injuries to her body even when she's not consciously aware of them, functioning at Remarkable (30) rank.

Detoxify (s): finally, Anastasia has the ability to remove impurities from the bodies of others, such as drugs or poisons. This psi skill works with Incredible (40) ability, allowing her to almost always 'clean up' a 'tainted' body in just one turn.

Trained Psi Powers (Superpsi)

Gestalt (a): Anastasia can combine her psychic essence with the rest of Psi-Force's, in order to manifest the Psi-Hawk, their combined Gestalt form. This entity was seemingly slain by the Russian paranormal known as Rodstvow, but manifested anew several years later.

Limitations:

Curiously, if used on the same person more than once in a twenty four hour period, Anastasia's healing powers can lower her End by one rank, instead of the recipient of the healing power. This is opposite of the standard metabolic overload rules, but how her abilities work.

Equipment:

(none)

Quirks:

Enemy 2: the Siberian Project in the U.S.S.R. used to use Anastasia in their various experiments, and have tried to get her back on various occasions, usually through the long arm of the K.G.B. - or its puppets in the so-called Red Sun.

Gullibility: Anastasia has fallen prey to the evil schemes of others on more than one occasion, as these people were easily able to exploit her extreme desire to help people with her powers (formerly at level 2, now 'normalized' at level 1).

Shyness: Anastasia was quite shy when she first arrived in America, and usually wracked with doubt about any decision she had to consider. Over time, she become better able to express herself to other people (formerly at level 2, or even 3).

Talents:

Languages / English and Russian: Anastasia was born in Russia, but was sent to America at an early age until her guardians were killed. As such, she's mastered both languages, being able to read, write and speak in both fluently.

Contacts:

As a member of Psi-Force, Anastasia could have probably relied on any team member for whatever help she could need. Should any of her relatives actually still be alive, she could possibly count on them as reliable contacts as well.

Costume:

While active with Psi-Force, Anastasia usually didn't wear a specific uniform to speak of, but has flirted with such designs in the past. Her 'costume', to so speak, would include black pants, black leather jacket with stylized red hawk head on front, and a gray scarf.

Personality:

When she first arrived in America with Emmett Proudhawk, Anastasia was a shy, introverted wreck. However, she's quickly evolved into a rather resourceful and strong-willed young woman, more than willing to give her very life for the people she cares for (and she did).

Story:

Born in the Soviet Union, Anastasia Inyushin always loved plants. At an early age, she seemed to demonstrate a sort of 'green' thumb, able to make any plant healthy. Her parents feared the K.G.B. would discover this, and sent her to America to protect her.

She lived with her aunt and uncle, but they were mysteriously killed in a car wreck. When she got back to Russia, Anastasia found out that her parents were dead, too. The K.G.B. offered to protect her, though it wasn't really an offer, and they sent her to the Siberian Project.

This facility was used to study paranormal powers, abilities that the people within had to little effect until the White Event, where Anastasia first demonstrated her healing powers. This made her the center of attention there, until Emmett Proudhawk rescued her from the place.

She went with him to America, joining up with Psi-Force soon after. Though Emmett died quickly afterward, he was able to show the kids how to merge their psyches into the Psi-Hawk, a gestalt being made from the combined essences of the five psionic teens.

Anastasia stuck with the group for over a year, though she fell victim to several folks wishing to take advantage of her healing powers and her innate desire to help people with them. This was until Rodstvow blew up Psi-Force's home, splitting the team up.

She fled with both Kathy Ling and Thomas Boyd, who eventually got caught by the Medusa Web, an international paranormal bounty hunter outfit, for the U.S. government. However, the rest of Psi-Force came to her rescue, though the team got mowed down by U.S. army soldiers right afterward.

Knowing she was dying, Anastasia tried to heal the rest of the team before she did so. To her credit, she managed to patch up the entire team before her death, which occurred right before Psi-Force's part in the veritable destruction of Washington D.C.
