Description
And it's finished! I finally managed to draw the stars of my "Zodiac: Jinx" story - Cyrus, Kovann and Natalya, known respectively as Jinx, Hex and Poltergeist. I wouldn't call them supervillains, though two of them have powers and they all live outside the law; they're just contract thieves with more advantages than most

Bios

Jinx
"I think I'll just trust to luck, don't you?"
Name: Cyrus DiMartino
Species: Tokay gecko (blue with crimson spots, yellow eyes)
Personality: 'Happy-go-lucky' is the best way to describe this gecko. He is enthusiastic and confident in anything he attempts, thanks to his necklace garunteeing it's success, though he betrays a more nervous streak whenever the time limit leaves him vunerable (see below). He is a habitual bluffer, a shameless charmer, and steadfastly loyal to his crew and what family he has left. He thinks quite a lot of himself and relies on his amulet a little too much. He is also a pacifist who will not strike back unless his life is in danger, preferring to avoid enemies instead.
Powers/Weapons: The medallion he wears is a magic charm, granting him supernatural luck for a short time whenever it is activated by pressing the middle gem. Durning that time period, anything he attempts is almost certain to be successful via a series of very improbable events - from finding a fiver on the ground, to guessing a safe code correctly, to an enemy being unable to hit him because they're having a sneezing fit. However the more unlikely it is for this to happen, the less time the amulet will be able to be activated for. The bad luck collected must be discharged before the time runs out (all thirteen outer gems lit) otherwise it will 'backlash' on the wearer... almost certainly killing them. Once it has been discharged it is useless for at least another hour. It won't function for anyone else if they take it by force - he has to give it up freely - and the same improbable circumstances will work to have it returned to him by the shortest route possible. He also has the innate ability to stick to walls or ceilings, even glass, common to all geckos.

Poltergeist
"Cyrus, you did what?"
Name: Natalya Eden
Species: Grey squirrel
Personality: Tomboyish and tired of being ignored, Natalya is a feisty girl who won't take anything lying down. She is fiercly independant, dislikes having to rely on anyone for anything, and belives in fighting her own battles. Despite all this she works well with the rest of the group, and although she argues with Cyrus a lot she also admires his determination and confidence. She has a lot of courage and will stand up for herself and others in the face of huge odds.
Powers/Weapons: She has the abilty to become partially or completely invisible as well as make other people or objects see-through. Doing so drains her energy, though it isn't apparant unless she is trying to maintain multiple invisiblities at once. Objects must be in contact with her to remain invisible, but it does linger for about a minute or so after she lets go. Her control over her invisiblity fluctutes with her emotions, leading her to sometimes dissappear involuntarily in moments of stress or anger. She is also skilled in martial arts and is very agile, specialising in climbing and evasion.

Hex
*sound of keyboard tapping* "Easy as pie..."
Name: Kovann (second name unknown, almost certainly not his real name)
Species: Fox
Personality: Calm, collected and dependable. Kovann hardly ever loses his cool and is always ready with a new strategy to make the best of any situation, his natural intellect carrying him through where others would falter. He's the cynic of the group, overcautious and often picking holes in Cyrus' hare-brained plans, and prefers to stay out of sight wherever possible. However whenever Syndicate (his old employers) enter the equation he goes all to peices with panic and fear that they might catch up with him. Most of the time, though, he has his feet planted firmly on the ground. He is generally kind-hearted and reasonable, though he has shown a ruthless side when things he cares about, like the crew, are threatened.
Powers/Weapons: He has no powers beyond the norms, aside from an almost-unnatural ability with computers and other electronic equipment. He can strip down most firewalls in seconds and is a skilled enough hacker to be able to alter his own criminal record and those of the others, keeping them out of sight of the law. He has multiple fake identities built up online that seem flawless to all but the most experienced eye. His age (he's almost 50) doesn't stop him from being a master with throwing knives, either, of which he has many strapped to his body at all times.

I'm not putting in their histories, this would just be ridiculously long And besides, I want to reveal that in the stories!
