Erica Phantom

"Now, let it be war apon you BOTH!"


===IDENTITY===

Full Name: Erica Phantom
Nickname(s): Phanty, Phantom's girl, Opera chick
Codename: Opera Ghost
Alias(es): The Phantomess of the Opera
Age: 17
Classification: human
Affiliation: evil


===PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION===

Hair Color: long raven black hair that goes to her thighs
Eye Color: deep blue, like her father's
Height: 5'7"
Weight: 112 pounds
Other Traits: She is hideously deformed on the right side of her face so she wears a mask similar to her father, The Phantom of the Opera.

===POWERS===

Powers: Erica has no powers

Skills: Like her father, Erica is a genius and knows how to haunt and scare people in the Opera House. She is very stealthy and quick and knows the Opera House better than anyone (besides her father, that is).

Weaknesses: Erica is deathly afraid of Gypsies and Freak Shows bacause of what they did to her father. When her father was a young boy, he belonged to a Freak Show where they abused and beat him for fun. Erica is afraid that if Gypsies find her, she will get hurt like her father. So that's why she rarley ever comes out of her home in the catacombs.


Equipment: The only two things she needs is some rope to use as a noose and a sword. You see, Erica isn't evil but she murders for joy and loves to frighten and haunt people.

===PSYCHOLOGICAL PROFILE===

Personality: Erica is a very unpredictable person. You never know what she's gonna do next. Even if she appears to be happy, you may never tell because most of the time she just has a blank expression on her face. It's only when she sings and murders that she smiles because she has great joy in both.

Strengths: Erica was trained by her biological father, The Phantom of the Opera (real name Erik).

Stealthiness-Erica was taught by her father to rome around the Opera House in which they live under without being seen. She can do that by blending in with the shadows (she wears all black but sometimes you can see her because of her white mask) and she tries not to go in the light because that would give her away.

Speed-Another thing her father trained her to do. Erica is faster than most 17 year olds and can appear like she's disappearing and reappearing like a ghost (also why she's called 'Opera Ghost').

Swordfighting-Erica has learned to swordfight very well from her father. Her father would playfully wake her up in the mornings, shouting, "Intruder! Intruder! Grab your sword!" So Erica would grab her sword and the two would fight until one sword hit the ground. Like the rope, Erica uses her sword as a weapon and will scewer anyone who is a threat to her.

Interests/Habits: Ever since she first heard her father sing, Erica has had an intrest in music and Opera since she was a little girl. Her father taught her to sing like an angel but have a powerful voice too. Erica loves to write operas and has already written one called La Victoire des Rois . Every time she makes an appearence anywhere, she puts a red rose in her place and runs off to the catacombs, similar to her father's mark.

===PERSONAL BACKGROUND===

Family Members: The Phantom of the Opera (father), unknown mother, possibly deceased, Gustave (half brother)
Place of Origin: Paris, France
Current City: Steel City
History: Erica was born to the Phantom of the Opera and an unknown woman (possibly Christine Daa'e but we don't know) and is the younger sister of Gustave, the Phantom's first born son. Erica was raised in the catacombs beneath the Opera House in Paris, France. She inharrited her father's amazing singing voice but also, ironicly, his deformity. Erica was given a mask by her father and loved it more than anything. Then, when she turned 5 she, Gustave and her father moved to Steel City because the police were after them. They found a theature and hid their until the police lost their trail. Eventually, they decided to live in the new theature. When she turned 10, her father let her go up to the Opera House and began teaching her horrible things like how to murder and how to steal. He taught her how to make a noose and how to sword fight. When Erica turned 12 she murdered her first victum by hanging them. She was then called the Opera Ghost, just like her father. Back in the catacombs, the Phantom would sometimes sit Gustave and Erika down and tell them stories of their mother and how wonderful she was. He told Erica and her brother that they reminded him so much of Christine and would occasionally turn away and sob while Gustave and Erica watched. When Erica turned 17, she wrote her first Opera called La Victoire des Rois and her father helped her with the lyrics and music. For her birthday, her father made the managers of the Opera House use her Opera the next time they have a full house. Erica watched the preformance with her father from Box 5 and the Opera was voted the best opera of the year. Erica still haunts the Opera House to this day, alongside her brother Gustave and her elderly father the Phantom.

Claimed. I will review this character. Expect a reply soon.

-Dar

Very interesting. I’m a huge fan of Phantom of the Opera, but to be honest I’m not sure how this character will work on this site. Will she be bound to the opera house? Or will she be able to go other places? How can she still haunt the opera house if she is in Jump City? There are no catacombs in Jump City, only rather repugnant sewer pipes.

Skills
Wouldn’t sword fighting be among these skills? You mentioned that she carries a sword.

Affiliation
If she murders for joy, then she is evil.

History
How did she come to be in Jump City?

Once you’ve answered these questions in your application, send me a PM and I will check this character again.
