Black Mamba [INC.]

Full Name: "Princess" Kipa Abeni K'alongo
Nickname(s): KiKi and Ky; call her KiKi and she will *kill* you. KiKi comes from "Kijoka" which is African for "Little Snake". (To make fun of her short height of course. )
Codename: Black Mamba
Alias(es): Kya Oganda.
Age: 16
Classification: Meta-human.
Affiliation: Neutral.



Hair Color: Ebony black.
Eye Color: Cerulean blue.
Height: Five foot Seven.
Weight: 135lbs.
Other Traits: Kipa sports a set of fangs where a normal humans' "canines" would be. Her nails, though filed to a sport cut, are unnaturally sharp and pretty poisonous. (Thus she files them down to prevent accidental casualties. ) Her skin is a deep caramel color that tans golden brown when out in the sun too long. Kipa's hair is as dark as a leopard's spots, bone straight and supremely thick (it frizzes majorly in humid heat though.). Her figure is shapely, a common hourglass characteristic in her tribe's women, with lean muscle from extensive training. Ironically Kipa is the shortest in her entire family and possibly her tribe as a whole.

===POWERS===

Powers: Her power is Poison Generation, also known as "Toxikinesis", and the form is a highly corrosive venom that attacks the central nervous system for immobilization purposes, (Affecting movement,breathing, swallowing, speech and sight). The poison is secreted through her nails (of which she keeps short, despite the fact they grow back pretty fast), and fangs. To an extent, Kipa can emit a venomous vapor that covers a 30 ft radius, and can "spray" the liquid a good 6 feet across. The vapor can be emitted from her mouth and nose while the spit-shots come straight from the throat. She's currently working on "streaming" her venom farther, however it seems 6 feet is all she's going to get. Due to her powers she was given a warrior name which, when translated from her tribe's tongue means "The Black Mamba."

-She is not known to secrete poison from her skin.

-She does not possess toxic blood.

-Her saliva is normal, it's not corrosive in the slightest; it's not the same as the venom she generates/sprays.


Skills:

-Combat prowess: Her heritage is a warrior culture, and as such she is pretty adept in hand-to-hand combat. Her movements, like the beast she's named after, are on the aggressive and lightning fast; Kipa is somewhat flexible, but her talent really lies in her powerful strikes and quick movements instead.

-Mental Dexterity: She may not be a genius, but her mind is very sharp in the sense that it's alert and quick to catch on to things. Kipa is pretty good at reading cues, anticipating danger, and reacting to them. These are traits that characterize a formidable bodyguard for the Royal Family of Ngaza.


Weaknesses:

-There's only so much venom she can "spray" in rapid succession (About 12 times). If she gives out too much she might drop dead; concentration control is the key. ("Yea....still mastering that....") Since her venom mainly serves to incapacitate her enemies Kipa rarely conjures it potent enough to outright kill someone. It does not take long to generate unless she's exhausted her reserves.

-The poisonous vapor is only highly potent for up to 20 seconds, after that it dissipates into a harmless gas.

-Metahuman or not, Kipa has the same "humanly" limitations as everyone else. She isn't Superman or Miss Marvel, meaning she gets tired and can be killed. Sure, her meta-human status boosts her endurance a bit but there's only so much action she can take.

Just like everyone else.



Equipment:

-Ngulu Sword: Meaning "Execution" is what she uses in combat. Kipa actually prefers close range battles, and thus only uses the Ngulu when she has to. To be honest she'd rather rely on her good ol' guns. Kipa: Pssht! -blows on fists and smirks-

-Warrior Regalia: Basically her attire from Ngaza, including the headpiece/hair ties that identify her as a guard for the Royal Family. Her pants are parachute in design and her footwear is made from the skins of hunted wildebeest; this allows for fluid movement.

===PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFILE===

Personality:

-Brazen. Passionate. Dependable. Quick-witted. Kind. Independent.

-Brazen:
"'Nuff with the song and dance, just get on with it!"
This girl is bold, and pretty direct. Kipa's not much of a **** talker and would rather get to the point than beat around a bush all day. You could say she lacks tact and diplomacy....yea.....that's Efuru's strong point, not so much hers. This is an admirable quality that can turn into a foolish one that may land her in trouble one day. Despite her shrewdness, sometimes Kipa doesn't think before she acts.

-Passionate&Quick-witted:
Blunt and dynamic, she is quite the firecracker. Her temper is a bit short, depending on what buttons are pushed and people who are over-bearing/protective drive her up the wall. Kipa has no shame in getting you told, especially if you try to play her as an idiot. She's cool, but she's not mousy; Black Mamba will show you that there is indeed a difference. Her skin is pretty tough, so throwing jokes around won't have her feelings hurt.....she;d just throw 'em right back! Despite having a nonchalant or lazy appearance Kipa is very observant and pretty alert.

-Dependable:
So she sucks when it comes to expressing her feelings in the mushy department, and? Need a listening ear? Kipa's your girl. Want someone who won't hold back to give you some advice? You've got the right one. In need of somebody who'll lay down their life for you if push comes to shove? Miss Ka'longo all the way! "It's an occupational hazard," She'd shrug, "I was practically born to die for other people." Kipa ain't the mopey type, she'll listen.....impart some sage advice and then if you still don't get it she'll whack you upside the head. Point blank and there's no getting around it.

-Kind:

-Carefree:


Strengths:

-Shrewdness.
-Selflessness.


Interests/Habits:

-Dancing: Kipa looooves to dance.
-Getting lost in the night: She goes from watching the stars on rooftops to strolling around town under the moonlight. Kipa's favorite time is from dusk until the dead of night.
-When she's angry, she blows shortly through her nostrils.
-American culture as a whole: Does this need an explanation?
-When she's nervous she makes no intelligent replies whatsoever. They consist mainly of "....glerk?" and ".....splee?"
-Playing video games.
-Hunting.
-Playing the Marimba.

Claimed. Also, your picture wasn't showing up so I fixed it.

Why thanks mate! Crikes, I'll be finished with this app completely by t'morrah. Until then, hooroo!

Looks good so far, but I would like to know just how much her poison affects a person. Can it vary? How long does it take her to emit/spray her venom and how does she do it?
