Just gonna take the 'always open' part of the title at face value
Real name: Ellis Quinn
Codename: Kinesis
Species and appearance: Metahuman
Age: 23
Alignment: Lawful Good
Costume/clothing:
Occupation: Licensed hero/Soldier
Backstory: Ellis Quinn didn't have a very long childhood, she was only eight when a trip to the city to visit the aquarium for her birthday turned into a disaster. At the train station something went wrong, an explosion rocking downtown and killing most in the station. Ellis was buried in the rubble, terrified but somehow unharmed. When first responders tried to dig her out after discovering she was there, her fear at the sound of shifting rubble triggered something in her. The energy she'd unknowingly absorbed to survive the explosion burst from her in a wave of concussive force. More people died, and she was found huddled in the epicenter without a scratch. That's when the military swooped in, covering up the incident and making the child disappear. She grew up in a secret military compound, training every day to control and use her abilities. Now, as an adult, she serves as the government's sanctioned hero.
Powers:
Enhanced durability: Ellis can take a hit like most humans can't, able to endure a metal beam to the face without going down.
Kinetic Absorbtion: Whatever kinetic energy you hit her with, she can absorb it to be used later.
Kinetic Enhancement: She uses getting hit in a fight to power her own attacks.
Kinetic Blast: If she absorbs enough energy, she can release it in a single powerful concussive blast with her at the epicenter like a human bomb. This will usually exhaust her reserves and leave her vulnerable in the aftermath so it's only to be used as a last resort or finishing move.
Weaknesses (if any):
Limited Energy Storage: Ellis can't absorb energy indefinitely, eventually it will start to slip her control when it gets to be too much.
Energy Attacks: Physical attacks give her the best chance at redirecting the energy, and explosions generally have enough physical force for her to absorb. But attacks of pure energy, such as plasma or electricity, are less able to be absorbed and reused by her.
Personality traits and interests: When she has down time, Ellis enjoys reading fantasy and science fiction and visiting the outdoors. She's loyal, stubborn, and more likely to make the sacrifice play than to let someone else get hurt.
Sexuality: Lesbian
(hope this all works okay with your guys' setting)
