Let it never be said that the Omniverse is an easily understood place. In our reality, Jake, Jane, Roxy, and Dirk are deceased adults and the parents of the first four primalborn. But to fill out the ranks of the primalborn to face the evil of the fallen one, the Primordials bent the standard rules of Primalborn coming from one reality. In another reality, the parents were raised by the offspring, with their ages reversed. Though to be even more confusing, genetically the primalborn of this "beta" timestream, are still the parents of the people who raised them. Here, the status of Primalborn would go to the genetic parents, and not their offspring in the alpha reality.
Jannet Crockett was in this reality, the maid of life and "daughter" of an age reversed John and Jade. Born in Maple valley, she spent her first three years of childhood on a planet being increasingly dominated by Antonov incorporated. She was raised with her brother, Jake in the final days of maple valley's existence. Their parents knew that their reality was essentially, incredibly doomed, but did their best to ensure that their children would at least grow to see the end of Vrakmul's threat to all of existence. The twenty four must unite and bring an end to the threat of the Lord of Doom.
Being a rather obvious show of hands, the "beta" reality would not last as Vrakmul's lair, a dark reflection of the vine reality known mostly as the Doom Mirror, started to absorb it. The Black hand, Army of the Inferno, and Electrical Protectorate flooded into the reality and stirred up all the evil things that crawled in the dark. The very foundations of reality began to die as the invaders sought to offer this reality to Mehrudagoth or take it's power for their own gain. The reality's time was limited with the full attentions of the servants of the antedeluvians on it.
With only a scant amount of time, the four would need to reach the age of thirteen in a hurry, as Vrakmul's minions soon flooded into the Beta reality to try and take the Primalborn to serve in his Praetorian Guard, virtually tearing apart the entire universe as they were hidden. In time though, common threads would repeat themselves. The Black Hand came in and razed maple valley to the ground, orphaning Jake and Jane who only survived because of the intervention of the Imperium. But the main difference is that the Doom Mirror started devouring the entire beta timeline through very little conscious effort on Vrakmul's part, consuming it to bolster it's power for the Lord of Doom's master plan.
She was taken in by her version of the Imperium, which was overall not very different from the Alpha Imperium. She, like her Alpha counterpart, John, preferred to keep her foes at a distance. She also picked up on some terribly antiquated methods of speech, though not quite as bad as Jake's. But even the Imperium could not hold the tide down forever. Eventually even this bastion of mankind was pushed to a secluded corner of space before the advance of the Lord of Doom's forces. The Beta-universe was to put it simply, dying as Vrakmul's power stretched to all corners of reality.
As the reality began to die, a plan to keep the prophecy rolling without sparking an all out war between the Primordials and Antedeluvians that would likely tear apart the Omniverse in the process was hatched. As the Black Hand began to absorb and consume the beta reality, the Novus opened up a wormhole, knowing full well that the Beta-Hierarchy, which was kept afloat even during the death of the universe and the grand overseers by the Black Hand would follow them. They counted on the four new primalborn and the addition of some new forces would be sufficient to offset the Hierarchy essentially doubling in forces and Mu absorbing the essences of the three beta-grand overseers.
She, as an imperial citizen, likes to keep her options open as far as love goes, and freely wheels between Jake and Dirk for her romantic aspirations, with the time spent apart from her "brother" helping to stop her from really considering her as a sibling, and the two aren't genetically related in any case. She doesn't really pick favorites and goes to whichever one of the two she feels like hanging out with at the moment. To some this would be odd, but she comes from a different culture that sees monogamy as bizarre.
Jane was brought up in the Imperium of Man and is thus a product of all of it's trappings. She was raised more by Varitus than by Maria in this reality, and quickly took to the teachings of the Imperium as it sought to protect the most valuable assets of the beta reality in the face of the storm of the Black Hand and it's onslaught of doom. She was brought into the Ordo Astartes, the Knightly orders, and made Alpharii of the Nova Ultima Knightly order.
She comes to our reality with firm convictions regarding how things should be and with firsthand knowledge of how deadly a threat the black hand poses to all of existence. She's fully ready to commit her all to the battle for the soul of the Omniverse and destroy the greatest threat it has ever seen since the old days of dimensional clashes and gods of secrets. The war ahead will be one of apocalyptic scale, of untold of destruction and incredible sorrow.
But it is also the war that all things rest on the balance of. And honestly? She's a little scared. Not just of facing the ruiner of her civilization and meeting Ishmael, the murderer of her parents once again. But of the sheer magnitude of her responsibilities. Fighting against the full might of the black hand and all the various organizations it's suckered into serving it? Warring against enemies who operate on universal, multiversal, or even omniversal scales? Having to battle against foes who could step on gods like bugs?
This is all so...awe inspiring. Even as someone trained in the Imperium of Man and raised along the traditions of the Astartes. She just hopes that she's ready to face the fallen primalborn and all his minions in their myriad forms. She's devoted to the concept of good above all, and seeing what the black hand *is* offends her on a fundamental level. So much evil, raw and unfettered, has no place in this world among decent people. And she knows just where to jab her weapon.
Powers
Fighting skills: Jane is a warrior true of the Imperium of Man and is trained in all the menagerie of war that it has to offer. None would find her wanting.
Intelligent: Jane is superhumanly intelligent and shows a great deal of skill and proficiency in the fields of problem solving, strategy, analysis, and tactics, all the Primalborn are in fact, though she prefers chemistry by a great deal, especially as it pertains to...cooking.
Better than human: Jane can smash promethium with her bare hands and has wolverine like regeneration and FTL speed. During adrenaline surges these impressive statistics can go up by a great deal, though this is true of anyone and her powers go up with emotional state, As one of the "primalborn" she has enhanced senses, far in excess of that of most metahumans. She's about four fifths as physically strong as John is.
Immunity: Jannet is immune to disease, poison, mind control, radiation, even of supernatural varieties, additionally Heat and Cold simply cannot hurt her, and her resistance to magic and psionics is simply astonishing. As she is immune to poison she is incapable of getting drunk. She cannot become zombified, undergo vampirism, or lycanthropy.
Psionics: Jane specializes in the telekinetic and divinitation fields of psionics, though she also dabbles in energokinetic and telepathic
Maid of Life: Jane shows an incredible amount of control over life, positive energy, good, and heat. She's also capable of flight, She will cease aging the moment he hits eighteen. She can alter anything about a life form (save for another primalborn), to the point that she can twist and warp even the thoughtsin to her will, change the species of entire solar systems, rewrite or delete powers from gods and mutants and mutates. If it's alive, it's pretty much her to play with. She can create new life forms with any powers she chooses out of thin air, merge and separate biomass freely, cure or create diseases on a whim, and alter or use any facet of biology she desires, it doesn't even have to be living in the classical sense, as nonbiological life such as Elementals are still hers to toy with.
With positive energy, she controls the energy of the living and the antithesis of the undead, which she can use to heal the living (or kill them by overloading them), imbue animation into nonliving objects to turn anything into a living creature of sorts as well as play havoc with the undead, as positive energy is their antithesis. With her control over good, she can manipulate alignments, forcing the evil to become good by displacing the evil inside them, deal horrendous harm to beings of evil, bolster or control beings of good as if they were puppets even if they aren't living in any sense or use the energy of good to create barriers. With heat control, she can play with the temperatures however much she wants to, imbuing more energy into any system she wants to without limit.
Creature of Life: Jane is not a living creature as biology understands it but is instead a manifestation of the will of the abstract personification of Life itself. What you see is really the essence of life deciding to mimic normal biological life forms if it wants to after she realized that what she thought were biological functions were really just her unconsciously mimicking them. Now aware of her true nature, she's not bound by the standards of life. Her powers can't be altered or dampened against her will, even by multiversal level reality warpers. She also has no Chi to alter or manipulate, not being a truly biological entity.
Chemical bender: Not only is biology subservient to Jane, but as is all of chemistry. All chemical reactions are hers to alter whenever, however she wishes to. Anything associated with the concept of chemicals is utterly subject to her whim and her control. The most toxic of sarin gases becomes a potent healing drug. The most potent of mutagenics is now ice cream.
Truenaming: While the more laconic high draconic shouts are only Dave's thing, all of the primalborn can use truenaming. Truenaming is the art of speaking the true, primal tongue of the omniverse, telling reality what to do. The power of truenaming is limited only by one's imagination and vocabulary. Truenaming becomes virtually impossible to resist if the user uses the Truename of their target in their true speech rather than a generic description. Jane speaks in a rather excited but overall fairly normal method, but she does sprinkle her speech with some terminology that cralwed out of the early twentieth century. She does however, *love* to sing in Truespeech.
Armor modes: All Primal born suits have four modes, Speed, Power, Stealth, and Armor. In speed mode, Jane's already incredible speed is further enhanced as the armor's nanomachines bond to her cells and allow them to contract far more quickly than they already could while rewriting her neural pathways to move and react even more quickly, to the point that even other FTLers are virtually incapable of perceiving her. Power as it suggests, has the armors alter her musculature for greater leverage and elasticity for enhanced strength. Stealth mode creates a lensing field that bends all forms of detection away from Jane, even vibration simply flows around the suit, and even precognition is incapable of distinguishing a divine steel user in stealth mode. Armor mode does exactly what the name implies, it causes the nanostructure of the armor to realign for maximum strength and shock absorbtion, while Divine steel is already more or less invincible, this greatly reduces the amount of shock transferred to the user. Multiple modes can be activated at once and each mode allows for special maneuvers and techniques, but they cost energy.

Equipment
Ivrish (Fork of the world): Jannet's primary weapon of war, Ivrish is quite obviously a war-fork/trident, and this divine steel weapon provides Jane with both reach and extreme hitting power. The weapon comes down to tips so sharp that they can skewer individual higgs bosons or abstract concepts, such as stabbing the very concept of engaging her in a fight to cause enormous mental disconcertation to her opponents. The weapon is also unable to be lifted by anyone not deemed worthy by her, amplifies her striking power, returns to her no matter what gets in the way when called which makes it perfect for throwing, The other end of the weapon is capable of being used to smash people upside the head. And yes, it can use the power of good and law to fire frickin' laser beams.
Jilia, the Lifekeeper: Whereas John uses a semi-triangular shield, Jane uses a circular one which is also quite good for throwing. The shield tapers into ridiculously sharp edges that don't harm anyone she deems worthy. The shield cannot be used or moved by anyone she doesn't deem worthy of utilizing, and it's just looking at it is capable of killing people who bring in Evil into their lives as well as the Undead. The shield perfectly reflects all impacts upon it, not only not transferring any damage to her, but rebounding back on the attacker at a 30 degree angle, meaning that hitting the shield hurts the attacker as if they punched themselves, twice.
Maid's honor: The first layer of defense in Jane's get up. This outfit provides an impressive 80% of the physical might of John's own dragon armor, allowing her to crush primary Adamantium with ease, and provides the first in the all important triple shielding (75% chance to reflect outright, 75% damage reduction, then hit point shielding) as well as Divine steel armoring woven into the threads and into hidden mail. This suit does much to bolster her function and due to it's fanciness, is great for showing at formal occasions.
Lady of battle: The lady of battle armor once again is about 4/5ths as physically strong as the raiment of the drakes, it's equivalent among John's arsenal, but this divine steel suit is still a force to be reckoned with, going through Nth metal as if it weren't even there and providing her all the benefits of a supremely advanced suit of armor, including cyberwarfare suites, another set of triple shielding, and locks for her shield and sword in the rare case she should meet someone on the level of her intended opponent. As it is a divine steel suit, no effect save for concussive force may penetrate the armor and affect the wearer. And this suit has seen the maid of life taketh away her portfolio from many souls.
The Lifegiver: The final layer of armoring, the Lifegiver is the ultimate in Jane's armored suits, providing enough strength to casually shatter even skyfather forged godly metals such as uru, while it's Divine steel shell barely transmits much in the way of force to the user. By now, the user has three sets of triple shielding, further reducing any harm to their persons, while the suit offers the very best in "soft" factors such as cyberwarfare and situational awareness. You'd be hard pressed to find a better made suit of power armor anywhere.
