Description You didn't think I was still into this stuff huh? I thought so too, but here I am! I've been looking through some things lately, and now I'm kinda REOBSESSED YAY
Sooo, for my entry for and 's contest, I created a completely new OC

Name: Selenia (based of the chemical element Selenium), better known as Selene. She's also called Sel or Se (the chemical symbol), but the people who know her real name just call her Rowena or Row.

Real Name: Rowena Reese

Age: 17

Ethnicity: American

Height: 1.70 meters (not sure what that is in feet)

Relatives: Lilly Anderson (mother), Ted Reese (father), Lorena Reese (little sister)

Relationships: Selene seems very spontaneous and opened up, but she doesn't trust people that easily. She makes sure to keep a little distance and if someone gets too close, she changes the subject or just walks away.
She has no close relationships as of now, but she still shares a strong bond with her little sister (even though she hasn't seen her in years)
Oh, and she's straight

Organization: None (yet)

Hero/Villain: Hero, but sometimes she does cross the line. If somebody does something unforgivable in her eyes, she has no troubles killing him/her.

Abilities/Powers: Selene is able to bend all sorts of metal. Her gloves contain a standard source of metal, which she uses to form her swords/claws, but she can use metal of her environment as well, to make metal shields or to attack.
Sel has a photographic memory, so if she sees someone with a weapon she thinks is cool, she can imitate it almost perfectly.
Even though she is able to create other weapons, Selene still likes her claws the best, and uses them the most. They usually come in handy by climbing, and the normal crimefighting is done with them too. Because of her metalbending skills, she can pop them in and out of their holder.
Furthermore, she is pretty flexible due to her doing gymnastics when she was younger, and she knows some basic fighting techniques.

Weaknesses: Electricity is a big weakness for Sel, because her metal conducts it. She has big troubles defending herself when it comes to that. Also, she has a fear of water, since she can't swim very well.
Without her gloves, she's very bad at close ranged fighting.
Piercings/Markings/Etc: Two scars on her shoulder, whom she ironically caused herself while training with her claws. She has a whirly tattoo on her belly too, which she just likes for the design.

Personality: Bold, teasing and sometimes completely rude. That's the kind of attitude Selene has. She likes to piss people off, just for the fun of it. If she sees someone in need , she will only save them if she thinks it's fair. If she sees someone shooting the person who betrayed them or something like that , she won't put much effort into helping.
This may all sound a little bad, but in the end, Selene IS on the good side. By acting like she does, she tries to hide how insecure she really is. She finds it hard to talk about anything personal, but actually does long for someone to talk to.


Background History: Rowena had a completely happy family, until her mother, Lilly, became ill. It wasn't a rare disease, but because Lilly reacted negitave to the cure, she couldn't be cured. Rowena's father Ted, normally a very strongminded man, couldn't take the stress. He began to forget reality, completely shutting himself from the world. When he eventually began hallucinating, they took him to an institute. Rowena (14 years old at the time) and her little sister Lorena (10) had to go to a foster home, because they had no family living near. Row and Lore (as they call eachother) became separated, and never saw eachother again.
Rowena's foster family was okay. They treated her well, but she still wanted to go back to her real family. She became closed and distant, and started looking for danger to distract herself. She found an old metal factory near her house, and with a few pieces of metal she found, she started to train herself to fight with them. She learned a lot of technical stuff in the factory (for example: making her own weapons), because everything still was intact. But that wasn't for no reason. The factory was still being used, by a couple of scientists who were planning to make some sort of metal skinned humanoid. When they found out Rowena was sneaking around in the factory, and she discovered what they were doing, they decided to use her as a test object for their experiment. The experiment went wrong though, and Rowena ended up with metalbending skills. She escaped the scenery, but while panicking on her way back home, she realised that she could maybe get to her sister in some way. She stole some money from her foster parents, and took off to the city. After a few weeks she realised there was no way of finding her, and after saving a guy from getting beaten at a club, she decided that the only good thing left to do with her newfound powers, was to help people.

Selene walks barefoot, because the experiment made her able to form a layer of metal on her feet (and any other part of her body)

These are her summer clothes, if that wasn't really clear XDD In winter, she wears black pants with a white belt and white boots.Her shirt is practically the same, but it's longer and covers her belly. She also has a black cape, which she has on her when she's not fighting.

She looks very cool Femmeh! She has a wonderful story. I love the background.

Lilly en James, waar doet me dat toch aan denken?!
Ik weet helaas nog geen goeie naam voor haar, maar ook nog steeds niet voor mijn eigen karakter! Maarre, bedoel je dan de naam van haar als superheld? (Omdat ze ook Rowena heet).
