"When you don't have anyone to take care of you, you could go one of two ways. You could do whatever you want, or you could be your own parent."
Identity Status: Secret
Codenames: Jesse James, The Icefire Outlaw, Balance, Ch'iraq Fox, Phantom of Grim
Occupation: outlaw, thief, smuggler, saboteur, minor Chicago crime boss, grey Force user (inactive)
Personality: Unlike her former Icefire identity, Jesse James comes across as an obnoxious young woman, still older than her actually nineteen years, but not as old as before, nor as world-weary. She's clever, sarcastic, but also has a serious side, and doesn't play well after losing.
Jesse blamed herself for her loss on the Day of Grim. By attempting to channel too much power through herself to defend her city, she couldn't be there for the city's final line of defense. Afterwards it was revealed to her that one of her deadliest enemies, Yuki Terumi, was not defeated after all, but at large. Because of this, she fell into a depression, though those around her couldn't tell, except her adopted son, Erik Dokkson, who blames himself in part for draining her of the power that was killing her in her defense of Grim. Between the power drain and her emotional state, many of Jesse's abilities are suppressed indefinitely.
Advisers:
Jesse has several "spirit guides", as she calls them, which vary depending on her situation. The most common voices are the Bandit Queen of Grim, Sith Lord Lucian Darkblood, and grey Jedi Jing-Quinon.
Bandit Queen: Legends surround this mysterious outlaw from Grim. Nobody knows where she came from, or her real identity, for when the mask was removed from the dead Queen, the face revealed wasn't on record anywhere. She is stern and selfish, and is an excellent strategist, but deep down inside has a woman's heart and will be willing to protect the weak if it won't immediately threaten Jesse. She takes charge of Jesse just before battle and in situations resolving mental rather than physical warfare.
Lucian Darkblood: Sith lord whose identity was temporarily erased by the presence of Yuki Terumi, in order to replicate Terumi's personality. Lucian is headstrong and proud. In consulting him, Jesse's personal ego is stoked, leading her to make decisions far more selfishly oriented than usual.
Jing-Quinon: Grey Jedi who accidentally became soulbound to Jesse when she cast the curse on Terumi, the same curse binding her to Darkblood. He is a quiet man, gifted teacher, and believes that balance is the key to victory. He generally leads Jesse when she's in combat or meditating.
Spex: an artificial intelligence housed in Jesse's sunglasses. He's her best friend, parent, counselor, and mental restraint, and she sometimes considers him one of her spirit counselors. It's probable that if it wasn't for Spex, Jesse would have lost her mind or died a long time ago. He is highly intelligent and devoted to Jesse's well being. He has access to almost any database on the planet and perhaps a few beyond. He helped Jesse erase her past as Stella, and works constantly to keep her from having a criminal record, despite her shady activities.
Goddess Form: When the three advisers and Spex align in Jesse's mind as one, bound together through concentration in the Force, Jesse attains a near immortal status. Her form changes to a lavender gown, glowing blue eyes, and a green-and-red feather cloak that doubles as a pair of wings. She has control over ice and heat, can emit electric pulses from her hands, possesses a pair of swords constructed of pure Force energy, and has enhanced speed, durability, and strength. She can't maintain the form for long without intense focus.
Jesse has stopped using her counselors since the Day of Grim.
Abilities:
Force Manipulation: telekinesis, precognition, lightsaber skills, base mind control, etc. Extremely basic, with her only enhancements being extended jumps, slight telekinesis, minor precognition, lesser healing factor, and small durability and stamina boost.
Martial arts: self trained in several forms of martial arts and street fighting that she has come across in her adventures.
Tracking
Negotiation
Survival skills
Navigation
Arsenal:
Spex: an artificial intelligence housed in Jesse's sunglasses. He's her best friend, parent, counselor, and mental restraint, and she sometimes considers him one of her spirit counselors. It's probable that if it wasn't for Spex, Jesse would have lost her mind or died a long time ago. He is highly intelligent and devoted to Jesse's well being. He has access to almost any database on the planet and perhaps a few beyond. He helped Jesse erase her past as Stella, and works constantly to keep her from having a criminal record, despite her shady activities. Jesse's Spex sunglasses were broken during the Final Battle of Grim, leaving her with only her clear-lens version, worn as Astrid Everdeen as a safety precaution. She is in the process of making a contact-lens version, but it will take some time.
Blaze and Frostbit: A pair of batons based on the same technology as her original guns, with similar attributes. She carries Frost in her left and Blaze in her right hand. Her gloves allow her to hold them without harming herself. By touching the tips of the weapons at their respective highest and lowest settings she creates an instantaneous portal, zapping herself out of dangerous situations. The batons require significant cooldown time after each portal creation.
Pain and Peace: the names she has selected for her lightsabers. Peace is lightweight, easily maneuverable, and blue, good for slicing and fancy tricks. Pain, meanwhile, is heavier, stockier, and red. She uses Pain for slashing and stabbing.
Reaper's Shadow: aka Icarus' fall, a pair of black wings forged from a ferric material found on the banks of the River Styx. Jesse uses these for flight, as a shield, and in close-range combat.
Thunder Claws: electricity-producing gloves armed with retractable silver claws.
Denial: A force field creating/disrupting gauntlet, given to her by Kaija. It once had a glove attached but she removed it and made adjustments so that it will fit over her thunder claw on either wrist.
Others: Jesse has a variety of other tools in her arsenal.
History: Under Construction
