Powers:
Quantum Possession:: After an accident Meryl, already having a connection to the Quantum zone, was possessed by a kind spirit that now cannot separate from her. It has complete control over her body and mind but also can access energy retroactively. The being uses these powers to go back and direct meteors to the exact location needed. These are usually simply grabbed from the asteroid belt.
        Collateral Immunity: Thanks to her connection to energy and her possession she is immune to the side effects of her attack's impacts up to the third degree. Things that collapse thanks to her attacks won't injure her. Things thrown by the impact won't hurt her. The heat won't burn her unless she catches fire. She's also immune to the direct consequences. and can be hit with her own meteors. It will hit her, throw her, but she won't be hurt by the initial impact or her landing OR anything that falls on her due to the landing.
        Quantum physiology: The energy inhabiting her body gives her the amazing ability to surpass her actual body's limits. Thanks to this she can lift 500 pounds, is an accomplished acrobat and has peak reaction time for human, able to catch arrows and do a decent job of staying out of a pistols way.

1. Tungsten Spike(drill)- Tearing through all but the most durable of materials, it glows bright as it falls through the atmosphere as a superheated javelin, it can have a drill shape for even more penetration, but less impact. While it travels at several times the speed of sound, it always has a few seconds between first sighting and impact. It's light can even be seen when contrasted with the sun, as it glows a bright green. When hitting an impenetrable object, it has 30 tons of force upon impact. It is also the only meteorite she has that can curve in flight. This can be used once every 5 posts.
2. Lightning straights- This Summons to magnetic meteorites that pass eachother at a designated point, the competing forces create a huge amount of electricity which, after the point of crossing, becomes an electric clothesline with the same strength as a lightning bolt as the two meteorites evaporate from the intense heat.
3. Barrage- Several small, stone pellets, about 10 ranging from the size of a penny to 5 the size of a baseball. Altogether each hits with half a ton of force but are harder to direct and have a margin of error of a few feet for each strike. There is an exception to this, when doing magic tricks, in a casual situation or she has several seconds to focus, each one can be exact. She can also make them all collide at any moment, making a firework like effect, or a flash bang, even several weak ones. Each of these are, of course, superheated. This can be used once a post.
4. Dilustel bang-A meteor with more of a energy connection than the average. At a designated spot, this meteor will explode with tremendous force and little shrapnel, making a concussive wave 20 feet in diameter and having the immediate strength of an RPG, One shot use(a thread), as the being itself has to cover a new asteroid in the material afterwards. It's very tiring as well.
5. Standard Strike- a simple piece of rock flying at incredible speeds. She can use this one quite regularly, four times a post(max) even and is the most accurate with it. She can summon these in a shorter time as well. Each one carries a four tons of force and is about the size of a loaf of bread.
6. Iron Block.-a two ton slab of steel with ten tons of force behind it. This rock leaves a large crater. fifty feet in diameter, can only be used once a thread. It can be shaped however she wants but always comes down from almost directly overhead.

She can only use two types of meteorites a post. Max. She can't use anything with her iron block or Dilustel Bang.

Skills:
Creativity: Very creative, able to make complex plans and ideas on the fly

Magician: A high level magician...but an actual magician, she can't actually do any magic, but her diversion techniques are top notch. She can, literally, strip someone of their jewelery, watches, bracelets, wallets and more. Reference Apollo Robins

Trajectory Master: Great at predicting directions and reactions along with angles of reflection. Also makes her good at pool.

Weaknesses:
Mortal: To anything not caused by herself.

Easily Distracted:

Fire: fires bypass her ability to be immune to her own attacks, they're too complex.

Noon: Can't hide her comets with the sun.

Buildings:They get in the way of her attacks

Cane: Without this she has trouble designating angles and directions, making meteorites only able to come in at 45 degree angles either towards or away from her.

Equipment:
Psychic Cane of the Stars: Gives her the ability to direct her meteors with exactitude. To summon a meteorite she points the cane where she wants it to hit or what she wants to target, if it moves. She then holds the cane at the angle she wants it to hit at. She can do this extremely quickly with a simple spin of the cane. The cane itself has the strength of a steel rod and will reappear with her if she ever loses it for more than 24 hours.

Playing cards: 52 normal cards.


Personality: To many, Meryl will seem insane. She seems to talk in the third person, talk to herself, and isn't very attentive at all. There is a purpose to all of her madness though. Meryl is inhabited by another being, from another dimension. It controls her body, completely overpowering her own neural impulses. It feels bad about it though and typically acts as Meryl wants it to or would want it to. Meryl herself rarely gets to speak but, when she does, you can tell by the lack of third person in her vocabulary and a great deal of tenacity in her voice. This being has led to Meryl having a slight god complex since she never feels how tired she is, only feels that she's hurt second hand and seems to be able to control the very celestial bodies that comprise the universe by going back in time and altering their course. It gives her a rush. She loves it. It also happens to have given her the habit of talking down to people, especially regular people.

Meryl usually only gains real control during especially dangerous situations or as magic tricks are being preformed. She still acts almost exactly the same though thanks to their shared memories! Meryl is, generally easily confused if someone is speaking too fast or about something too complicated. When she doesn't want to listen to something, she doesn't at all. She is the very epitome of selective listening and even when she does listen it's usually half hearted.

She tends to treat everything as a game. When she is in trouble enough to take things seriously she becomes quite calculated though. This comes from an insatiable desire to win. Not only that, Meryl enjoys seeing others fail and will often pickpocket things that aren't even useful to her. Just to be mean. She also likes to do things the hard way. She could go up to the tower to find her brother or cause some trouble, but she prefers simply waiting, that doesn't keep her from causing trouble though. Sometimes things just happen.

Two minds!
Creative
Quick to react
two faced...almost literally!

Interests/Habits:
Magician-ing
Pickpocketing
Tracking Ravian outside of the tower.


Family Members: Ravian Alaiyan
Place of Origin: Toledo, Ohio then facility somewhere in the Midwest.
History: Meryl was raised with Ravian. The very same Ravian that is now a Teen Titan. They were twins and were almost always together, yet extremely different. She was the trouble maker, she stole small things, made messes and constantly annoyed her parents with magic and card tricks! Of course, she caused more trouble than anyone knew, thanks to her former powers. She was able to ruin computers, cause sunburns and even general chronic pain. Of course, this was all usually in defense of her brother, who she was very close to. Of course, it wasn't all her. Her brother actually did burn people...make things explode, but...it was her more often than not. She had less restraint.

Of course, for once, she never was suspected for it was never her enemies that were hurt, only her brothers and her brother had even had his powers manifest first. She was in the clear for once, but not for long, as she started shifting to her enemies, her parents were catching on. She was young, she was scared, she had an accident one night. Not a 'oh we need to clean your bed' accident, more of a 'by the way you accidentally just killed your parents with a radiation burst. It put a lot of stress on her body, bruising her. The blame, once again, was placed on her brother though. His more powerful manifestation allowed him to escape unharmed after all. Much more impressive than the bruised girl.

They were both taken way, both experimented on. While he was trying to shoot asteroids down, her purpose was going to be redirecting them, as the scientists on her case doubted she could destroy anything. Her manifestation was still only at what Ravian's was years ago.

Meanwhile, in the Quantum Zone, many beings simply float about, nearly no concept of time or space, only energy. Unlimited amounts of energy are everywhere, which also means unlimited mass, a connection to everything in the universe. These beings are immensely powerful comparatively...it doesn't matter though. Most can only enter this universe for moments. Those that do so for longer lose much of their power, are disoriented and have a sudden feeling of self worth and usually enter on accident, finding themselves unable to return.

Ravian and his sister caused a hole to form, one that any being could have fallen through, if only it was much much bigger. As it was, it only served as a window, transparent, but not an entrance, not unless something breaks it. That's what happened though. It was broken by a large and sudden burst of energy. It ended up dragging several of these quantum beings through, killing some, letting others find themselves suddenly in a world they didn't recognize. One attached itself to Meryl though, taking full control of her with it's superior...everything.

Back on Earth, around the time of the incident, experiments were run. Ravian's body had been taken from him, only momentarily though. They were using electric bursts to stimulate nerves and force his body to release energy. The beings were ejected, and captured, during this test. Meryl showed little difference in anything though, the reason? The being she had captured, entrapped, effected was kind. Ridiculously kind and old and had a friend somewhere, one that got away, but that's a story for another time. This being felt bad for taking over Meryl's body, as a compromise between revealing it's position by leaving her and being captured by the scientists waiting outside her body and taking control from the young girl, it agreed to simply react as she would, do as she could. It became Meryl.

It even gave her powers, powers that finally let her have what she was always told she was for. She could move meteors. Asteroids even!....but that took way longer. Meteors were much more practical, much more fun. She soon began subscribing to the idea that she was a god of the heavens, of the celestial bodies! She was only in the facility because she allowed them to put her there. She proved it too! Shortly after they sent Ravian off, she demanded to leave, damaged the facility, killed dozens, they let her go. They didn't tell her where to go though. She's spent the last few years tracking her brother down. He made it easy though. Becoming a Teen Titan? That was practically a giant waypoint marker to Meryl. She currently has her mind set on finding him and taking him back from the Titans, even if she has to burn everything around him to the ground to make him want to.
