Fighting Ability: ●●●○○○○ | Some training (martial arts classes)

Mutation 1: Phosphorus Manipulation
-Creating (or generating), shaping and igniting phosphorous gases. Erika can generate small to large amounts of phosphorous gas in a variety of ways. She can fill a whole room with noxious phosphorous gas or send phosphorous fire balls at opponents. However, this can be very tricky especially if your teammates are in the same room so she has to give a warning beforehand.

-Right now her powers come in three-ish levels:
    -White (*ONLY EXTREMLY STRESSFUL SITUATIONS)
    -Red/Violet (Normal/Default Power)
    -Black (Almost Harmless/Weak Form)

Mutation 2: None.
Weaknesses:
    -Power can be unpredictable and dangerous
    -Wide Explosion Radius (Stand back, wayyy back like in Anartica.)
    -Needs oxygen to ignite
    -Water cools her down, real quick.
Fighting Style: Usually, keeps her distance with the target using fire ball and gas-fire fire explosions, however, she’s not opposed of getting into the fight. She’s still learning hand to hand combat but she’s pretty good at kicking and punching, she’s more of a street fighter than anything. Anything goes.

X - PERSONAL

Likes: Music, Stormy weather (when she’s inside) and Cats
Dislikes: Stealing, Snobby people and Liars

Personality:

+Adventurous | Perceptive | Witty | Independent | Active
+/- Outspoken | Self-Conscious | Competitive
- Regretful | Strong-Willed || Moody
You can always find a pair of hiking boots and traveling books on Erika’s desk. She dreams to venture out into the world but for now she’s often hiking on trails or trying new food or activities. She doesn’t mind going on these little adventures on her own and enjoys being by herself most of the time. However, when she does have company, she makes it a competition whether its eating the weirdest food, climbing to the top fastest or anything, she seeks to push herself to be top dog.
Be careful if you think you’re going to come for her, along with her competitive nature, she’ll be damned if she lets you win in an argument with her. You’ve got another thing coming, Erika doesn’t have a problem saying what’s on her mind and dishing out a witty comeback that’ll make cringe or back off (so don’t come for her). However, if you ever need a shoulder to cry, she’ll probably be already there, she has almost a 6th sense when something is off or wrong about someone and seeks to help them out if she can.
Erika is very self-conscious but of her powers, they are a dangerous force to reckon with and she’s afraid what others might think when they see her using them. It just reminds her of the incident that happened which haunts her even now. The result from this traumatic experience can make her into a very moody person at certain times. Just like all teenagers, she’s hopping back and forth with her emotions, sometimes she doesn’t want to be disturbed and sometimes she just wants to chill.
Facts:
            -Always wears a headband or headscarf
            -Listens to music to relax and keep calm
            -Dances randomly when she’s listening to music
            -Sleeps in most of the time while she cuddles a plush giraffe named Geraldine
            -Loves baggy clothes
            -Adores Sphynx cats, has one named, “Lestat”
            -Enjoys trashy/smut books (her dark secret, will deny it even if you catch her red handed)

X - ORIGIN

History
Erika grew up in a lower middle class to two hard working parents. Everything was normal, she hung out with people after school and walked the streets without fear at night and played music on her way home from school. Nothing seemed to be out of place. Everything was normal on 182nd Street. Never in her dreams would she expect that people there would be shooting up on her block. Sure, Paterson could be dangerous but never on her street. Shots rang throughout the area, kids coming out of school scattered out the way. Pain flickered throughout Erika’s body as a bullet entered her arm and she stumbled onto the concrete. Breathing hard, she could hear the thud of the heavy boots heading towards her, she was breathing harder as something hot and warm surge throughout her body. Her hands were covered in sweat as she became more and more afraid.

The person stumbled back in surprise, Erika stood with glowing white eyes and white gas like hair flaring up around her. Phosphorous gas filled the air and just like that it started to ignite and a loud explosion shook her neighborhood. After that, she blacked out and couldn’t really remember what happened but was shocked to see the charred body of the shooter and an unfortunate little boy who couldn’t escape in time. Knowing somehow, she had something to do with it, she took off and cried and confessed to her parents. She was traumatized, scared and ashamed of her actions and this new acquired power.

Her parents searched for somewhere she could go or some place they could find to help understand what had happened. That’s when they stumbled upon Jean Grey’s School of Higher Learning. Talking with the headmaster, he immediately sent a plane ticket and brochure of their school to them. Erika packed up a large duffel bag and a week later was on her way to the school, leaving behind her family, friends and that treacherous event that had occurred.

Example:

Gasping for air, her ears rang from the sound of the bullet being shot and the sting of the bullet in her bleeding arm prevented her from blacking out. A bullet must’ve hit a car, it honked and rang furiously as people scattered off into the alley ways with screams of terror. ‘Oh god, oh god,’ Erika thought, panicked and scared, her heart pounding up against her chest, ‘What is that sound?’ The heavy boots of the shooter became more audible as he started to approach her.

‘No, no, NO!’ she thought, in terror as her fist trembled and a white gas filled the surrounding area. The shooter stumbled back in surprise as she rose from the ground, her eyes glowing a ghostly white, her hair was almost gas like as it swayed and moved. Her hand reached out towards him and that’s all it took. The phosphorous gas ignited, the explosion shook the neighborhood and the explosion became a mix of screams, fire and gas.
