APPEARANCE Charlene's natural state is ver differant than this. She stands at 182 cm with muscular limbs and four hands. Her skin is a translucent gold and you can see her veigns running under her skin, which are a creamy pearl color. Her hair is a very pale gold color and it is lighter than human hair, it seems to float almost as she moves. Her eyes are what humans call cat eyes. They are wide and have slanted pupils and are the color of dark honey.
Her human for is very differant. She was able to find what an average human female looks like and created a form from that. She is 170 cm tall and weighs 44 kg. Her eyes are still slanted and cat like but they aren't nearly as large as her eyes. Her skin is creamy pale and her hair is dark brown and only falls just past her shoulders. She has five fingers and often will watch them as she waves them in front of her face.

STYLE The last time Charlene saw anything from Terra was from the '70's' so that is the clothing she had prepaired. Once she got here she quickly learned she got that wrong. She has started getting her wardrobe updated but her clothing synthesiser works slowly so she has a bit of a 70s vibe
THE BASICS
PERSONALITY
(+) Protective, dedicated, bold, responsible
(+) Protective, dedicated, bold, responsible
Ydite is overly protective of those that she cares for. She is extremely protective of Scooter and the other Apex members. When she sees one of them in pain she is quick to react. She really hates when King gets harsh with one of the others. She isn't someone who often gives up on what she starts on. It literally took armed GA officers to drag her away from her post and it would take just as much to take her from the Apex initiative. She does not like when people try to silence her. On Getter there is no such thing as ism or racism so it is beyong her that it exists on Terra. She was told once that she couldn't do something because she was a woman and she hit him so hard he flew backwards and was knocked uncontious. She will not hold back her opinions and ideals. However, when she is wrong she will take it. She is the one who takes the blame when things go wrong on missions and when King and Wolf are done yelling at her she will go to the others and talk about what went wrong.
(=) Force of nature, orderly, patient, curious
Being around Ydite is like being outside in the middle of a hurricane. She is wild and free, wont be tied down and is like a burst of fresh air when she comes in. She is full of energy and is virtually unstoppable. She is a person who likes orders but if she feels they are wrong she isn't afraid to go against them. She grew up in the military so she feels comfortable taking orders from people she trusts. She doesn't like having to fly by the seat of her pants, it just feels wrong. She is a type of person who is perfectly content to sit back and wait. She will make other people sit and wait with her as well. She loves knowing what is going on but she will also stick her nose where it probably shouldnt be and it has gotten her into trouble more than once.
(-) Possessive, intimidating, stubborn, demanding
When something is Ydite's it is hers, do not try to take it. She will fight for it but she will also dictate a lot of things. She has a few touches of controlling manners in her but she has steadilly been getting that part under wraps, however when things get heated she will start snapping and telling people to do things. People tend to listen to her because she can be very intimidating and scary. She tends to keep her form as a young human but when she is getting angry or she wants you to do soemthingshe will drop her form and scare you. She doesn't take people trying to order her around when they don't have the place to. She often decideds who gets to throw out orders so don't try to step out of line with her. She will get on you often if you do get out of line and will make sure you do what you should be doing.
Overall Ydite is a kind of person who is great to be around, even when she is in a bad mood cause she will still try to help. She radiates self confidence and some how brightens the day
BACKGROUND As a young girl Ydite only wanted to be an officer for the Galactic Academy. Her dad was one and her mom was a doctor for the GA. She only wanted to get onto a ship and fly somewhere. She started at Starship Academy when she was twelve and pushed her way through it in record time, graduating to Galactic Academy when she was 21. She spent two more years on the ground before she was able to get her first position on a ship. It was just a local one but it was a step in the right direction. Three more years later and she was stationed on an intergalactic cruser named the Nilis.
The first time Ydite had ever been to Terra was years ago when she was first starting out. She was on a rutien flight with her crew and they were lucky enough to make it by the planet. Unfortunatly when she got there, there was another species there with a target locked on. According to the Galactic Law, it is illegal to target a unformed planet or colony with no protective weaponry available. With them being a Galactic ship they couldnt ignore that threat.
There was a fight in which Ydite was in a cruiser that crashed into the crust. She landed in modern day Japan, relanded in China and finally crashed in Ireland. It took days to repare her craft and when she tried to take off again she crash in southern United States. It took a week but her crew was able to come down and fix the damage and leave, hopefully with no damage on the natives.
When they got back to Gitter the Galactice military was waiting for her. They had multiple reports from Terra about a new sun goddess in multiple locations. They had cave drawings and supposed paintings that looked errily like a Gitteran. That was a teir one capital offence and she was going to be punished.
Ydite was sentenced to 200 years in Choh'on, a desolate prison world. Life there was rough and no one had survived longer than 76 years. There was very little regulation of laws and rules, a lot of places were a free for all so you had to find a group to band with or you would not survive. Ydite was no differant.
She joined with a crew that was notorious for fighting. If there was a fight started anywhere on the planet, chances are it was cause by one of them. They are were skilled fighters and spent their time brawling eachothere. Ydite worked her way up until she was second in command, a position that was heavily saught after and defended with blood.
76 years after Ydite was scentenced a masive berak out was planned. Every prisoner came together together and they faught against the guards. They were easily able to over power the guards, take their weapons and cut off all communications. Half of the prisoners wanted to stay on Choh'on and create a new society and the other half wanted off and never look back. Ydite was a part of the second group. They loaded into the prison transports and all went in differant directions.
Ydite ended up on Yime, a small yet well devloped planet on the other side of the known galaxy. The locals were very accepting of other species and they took Ydite in. She lived there for years, helping them build up their defenses and learning as much as she could about as many more species and the galaxy.
217 years after she left her home planet Ydite went back. She changed her apperance to look differnat and to not raise alarm. Nothing was differant, life was still going on and no one mentioned Choh'on, which was starting to be an active civilization. No one spoke about the prisoners who left. It was strange because it had only just happened a hundred years ago.
Ydite spent time wandering.. She got her own ship and traveled the galaxy and learning more about other places. She didn't find anywhere she felt like she fit in though.
Almost 600 years after she left Terra she decided she needed to go back, she needed to see the damage she did. She expected there to be statues, stories and monuments, but when she landed in Japan there was very little. There was military proganda everywhere and military but nothing about her. She went to the other locations she landed and it was the same there as well. She left, hoping to leave it as it was.
Ydite felt drawn to the planet for some reason and went back years later. Things were vastly differant this time though. People were chill, wearing brightly colors clothing and music was playing everywhere. She liked it, it was so differant than anything she had seen before. She couldnt stay though, she was going to come back and stay. She went back and took care of everything that needed to be done and headed back to Terra.
When she came back things were vastly differant again. There were so many people everywhere and there was a lot of violene. It remended her of Choh'on in some places. She liked how things were here though so she was determined to stay and make it work here.
A year after getting there Ydite was approached by two men, they were truancy officers, and they demanded to know what she was doing and why she wasn't in any school. She didn't understand what was going on and she started getting flustered. They continued to yell at her and tried to grab her but she wouldnt let them. It was by pure luck, chance what ever you want to call it.
Wolf and King were int he middle of a heated argument about Apex when Wolf was distracted by the scuffle. He was watching and noticed when Ydite's skin flashed to her natural tone. He flew to his feet and ran over to them, calling out the name Charlene. He demanded why she didnt answer her phone and why she walked away. He took her arm and steered her away, apologising to the officers and whispered to her to play along.
Once they got back to King Wolf explained things to her but she refused to say she was anything other than human. King didn't feel like waiting around for Ydite so she attacked the girl. Ydite was so taken back that she dropped her looks and attacked King back. They both froze, stairing eachother down. That was when Wolf explained the Apex initiative to Ydite and asked if she would be interested.

IN THE LIFE OF (NAME) Ydite, now going by the name Charlene Dawson, started attending the human high school. Most of the subjects she did very well in but some like literature and history was just impossible for her to get a handle on.
Charlene has it easier than a lot of the others, she is very skilled in her abilities and often only gets to fight with Wolf because she is the closest to Charlenes fight level. She does like to show off though to the humans

THE RELATIONSHIPS
RELATIONSHIPS
Wolf//Agent Wolf has taken it upon himself to teach Charlene all about human life and get her adjuested to life here. He works with her every day and some of the others think she is his favorite.
King//Agent King doesn't get along with Charlene. She doesn't like that the girl is a better fighter than she is. Charlene has made no attempts to get close with Agent King either
Esau Sprottle (Scooter)//Charlene and Scooter connected quickly. When Charelen first got there she was distant from the others and didn't interact with them. Scooter was the same, he was always awkward around people so being in that large of a group of people made him uncomfortable. One day Scooter and King were sparring one day but King wouldn't let up. Charlene jumped up and in front of him. She dropped her look and towered over King, almost daring her to try to fight. Once King stepped back and invited someone else to spar Scooter thanked Charlene quietly. After that Charlene started spending more time with Scooter, just to make sure that the other kids would leave him alone but she really liked being around him. When they first met Scooter was just a normal, kida scrawny kid with a goofy smile. Now though he has shot up and is tall and fine like a good wine.
Vanessa Vo// 'oh my gosh would you just shut up and listen for once' Ydite is tryig with Vanessa but it seems like Vanessa is trying Ydite. They argue a lot but it is usually just Ydite telling her she needs to shape up and Vanessa coming back with a snarky comment about how she was just find on her own. When Vanessa does something like burn the practice mats in the training room because she lost the fight (pointed look towards Vanessa) Ydite will be the one to explain things to Wolf and King just so Vanessa doesn't have to get yelled at

THE SUPERHERO
ALLIAS Cascade + she always liked how this word sounded
SPECIES Gitteran (Someone else, hes to be a prankster of something, keeps laughing and calling her a Glitteran)
ABILITIES Sunburst: Gitteran's have the ability to absorb and manipulate differant types of mass like photons, alpha particles, protons and radiation masses. She needs them like food, similar to plants. On cloudy days she will have to go into a tanning bed for a while to get the nutrients she needs.
Hand to hand combat: from her years in Choh'on Ydite has gotten very good at fighting. She fights dirty and will use her size to her advantage.
Flight: Ydite spent years of her life with the Galactice Academy as a pilot. She has a natural nack for it and has flown human crafts a few times too.
Strength: Whie Ydite isnt insainly strong she is a lot stronger than the average human. She has, on more than one occasion, lifted another one of the Apex members with one hand with zero effort.
Durability: Getteran's are from the deep reachs of space. They are set up totally differant than others. They can take a beating more than others. Their skin is tough, their bones are harder and they don't need to breath like the others.
Sound: Not neccisarily a power or anything, but Ydite can create sounds that both some humans ears. Her natural language of Gitteran is what humans call high pitch and it has been compared to a dog whistle.

SUPERSUIT Ydite has a suit designed so that it will change with her form. It is white and thin, mainly designed to stay out of her way. She doesnt have a mask or anything because most of the time she is in her other form, which doesnt look like she does. However she can change her looks if she needs to be in her human form and still hiding.
IN THE LIFE OF CASCADE Charelen is a lot of the muscle and intimidation factor of the team. When she was found by Wolf he was not expecting everything he got with her. She has no quams with fighting people and putting the hurt on and she is amused at how often humans are afraid of her.
THE INTERVIEW
TIGHT FIT OR LOOSE FIT COSTUME Tight
CAPE OR NO CAPE No capes
BE A SUPERHERO OR A SECRET AGENT Secret agent
POWER TO FLY OR TO READ MINDS Fly, there is nothing like flying
AGENT WOLF OR AGENT KING Wolf
FINISH YOUR FINALS TEST OR SAVE HARLEM FROM A RAMPAGING MONSTER? Monster, why would I not save poeple from a monster?
YOU SEE YOUR BUS ABOUT TO LEAVE AND AN OLD LADY THAT NEEDS HELP CROSSING THE STREET, WHAT'S YOUR MOVE? I would help her obviosuly. I've notice here on Terra a lot of the elders are left for their own but elders are held in very high regard on Gitteran. If you can make it to the age where you are showing age then you are honored everywhere you go
THE GOODBYE
COMMENTS So Scooter will be another applicant you will be getting when she turns it in
SCENE SGST. Charlene gets sick with just a common cold but because she was never exposed to it before she gets super sick and needs to be taken care of. Scooter jumps at the chance and it is so adorible
Something completly mundane interests Ydite and she sits and watches it for what seems like hours
