Name: Yubi Himura
Nickname:
Date of birth/Age/place of birth: 4th of August / 24 / Tokyo, Japan
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Lesbian, but open to try with other genders.
Power (List abilities, weaknesses, etc.): Technology Manipulation
At a young age Yubi found herself being able to control the workings of technology. Phones, computers, you name it. She usually doesn't use this power for anything bad unless she is forced to or wants to get back at someone. With her combining her vast knowledge of anything tech related and her power, she makes great use of it to not only benefit herself but also those around her.
Specifics: Yubi is able to take control of the innards of any technology. Of course this depends on how close it is to her. The closer the technology is, the stronger her powers will affect the device.
Through her mind, she can make technology short-circuit, making it break and unable to function. If she decides to make the technology go completely haywire and with enough power, she can make it spark or even catch on fire.
As well as she can destroy technology, she can also repair it. She is able to repair even the most broken technology if she has all of the parts, including the broken ones, within her reach.
She can use her power to hack into the system of other technological devices such as electronic locks or computers and through her phone control them. While she has hacked a device, she can shut it off, install new hidden programs and she is able to completely change the data on another device like a computer or phone. If she can get within reach of the device, she can make edits to the data on the device without it being noticed until someone would actually inspect the files for any faults.
Limitations: Yubi's power becomes the stronger, the closer she is to the technology she wishes to manipulate. Of course it works in reverse as well, causing her powers to last shorter amounts of time or not at all if she is further away.
If she wants to hack a device, she has to be within 3 feet of the device and be able to see it. If she wants to actually continue doing things on the device after having hacked it, she needs to stay with in 5 feet of the device in order to complete her intended actions.
Yubi's hack can also only last for a limited amount of time, currently being able to keep connected to a device for a maximum of 30 minutes.
Appearance: Yubi is quite a... small woman. She stands at an amazing 5 feet and 1 inch while she weighs a whopping 104 pounds. Luckily she still has her curves where she needs them, not being the equivalent of a wooden board. She has brown hair which at the ends is colored a butterish blonde. Her clothing is usually very relaxed clothing, often seen wearing hoodies, sweat pants and thick socks with slippers over them. She also has a pair of round glassed glasses which she needs to see.
Hair: Brown with blonde ends
Eyes: A little bigger than average with brown eye color
Height: 5'1
Build: Slim but curvaceous
Personality:
Despite her somewhat cutesy and sweet appearance, Yubi is a very serious girl when she needs to be. She tends to be a bit of a goofball, not taking everything too serious and likes to just chill out and take things easy and adapt to situations as she goes. She can get a bit angry at times but it'll look more like a small gerbil is trying to make scary noises at people than anything. She does have the tendency to hit or kick anyone who doesn't take her serious or wants to intentionally make fun of her.
The one thing though, that she does not forgive people for, is making fun or hurting people who are off worse than others. Due to her own experiences she knows the struggles of how hard life can be so anyone that is condescending to people who had a rough life is someone she would rather have ridden from this world.
She also has some severe commitment issues, not able to properly let go of her past, something that has always haunted her.

Background:
Extra:
Yubi comes from quite a difficult background. Her parents weren't very keen on her, seeing her more of a mistake than anything. This caused Yubi to be very pulled back and on her own, not really knowing how to properly socialize with others. This caused her to get really addicted to anything she could enjoy on her own, which was mainly going to arcades and playing video games.
Yubi would usually go straight to an arcade after school, spending hours upon hours there until she would go home to get dinner and then be ignored by her family again. She eventually got a job at a gas station, working as a cashier so she could spend more time at arcades and manga cafés. During this time she had met a lot of people like herself, rejects without friends who just wanted to explore more of the world around them.
This sparked Yubi's interest of going through the city of Tokyo to find out about all of the secrets there. Sadly this also led to people getting her into drinking and smoking. While she was drunk she would often still go to arcades and through accidental fumbling at a machine, she managed to short circuit the whole machine, causing a blackout in the arcade. Yubi hadn't touched any internals and didn't fall into the machine too hard so she was unsure of what happened. She decided to flee outside, hoping no one knew it was her fault and she walked over to a nearby sign. When she managed to finally put some focus on it, a light ringing was caused in her head and suddenly the lights would spark and then just shut off.
It drove her to begin experimenting more with what seemed to be a newfound power. It started off with her hacking the arcade machines for free plays, haywiring light boards for fun or just begin screwing around with electric bikes. However this is when she met a new person of interest. Akiko Ishikawa. This girl was like a whole new door opened to her. The two hit it off quite well, having met at an arcade where Yubi offered her some free plays. Akiko at first wanted to use Yubi but gradually, the two become closer and closer, developping to a tight relationship.
However Akiko was a bit more extremely into shit than Yubi was. Not only was she an alcoholic, she also used drugs. And Yubi was pulled into this. She wanted to reject it so badly, but Akiko was someone she would do anything for. And so, she started drugs at 15 years old, slowly building up from soft drugs to hard drugs. It became a huge problem for them both, to the point Yubi would use her powers to hack into ATM machines for their money for food, drugs and alcohol. Yubi had eventually moved out of her home, knowing her parents would probably never notice and she began squatting in abandoned buildings with Akiko and some other people. During this time, Akiko gave Yubi her new name: Yubi Himura. Yubi gladly adopted the name and would speak of it with pride.
Sadly, it came to a point of no return. Both the girls were completely addicted and they could not live without their pain relief. Despite this though, the two sticked together, their love being stronger than ever. However Akiko became very possessive of Yubi, often not even letting her go more than a feet away from her. Yubi was hurt often in the process but she didn't mind, she loved Akiko, and that's all that mattered to her. However they would both learn, that this lifestyle would become the end of them.
It was on a dreaded morning, that Akiko woke up extremely sick. She was having muscle aches, to the point she sometimes completely cramped up. They both didn't know what to do and decided to go to a hospital. When they found themselves there, one of the doctors had an immediate idea of what happened and when he asked if the two had any open wounds from anything, Yubi admitted they were both addicted to heroin.
Yubi spent hours waiting outside the room they brought Akiko to, until she was let in. When she finally was, after an excrusciating wait of 7 hours, she was told by the doctor that Akiko had contracted an extremely rare disease known as Tetanus. It was likely caused by Akiko having an open wound from injecting with needles and because they lived on the streets, it was a higher risk for her. The doctor also let her know that sadly, Akiko didn't have long to live anymore. It was already too far developed for them to be able to do anything, but they were still going to try.
For weeks on end, Yubi would be spending most of her time awake with Akiko, trying to help her out as much as she could. For a few days, it seemed her state was actually improving. She had even gotten a promise from the doctor that they would both be put into a rehab program to get cured of their addiction.
And as fast as Akiko's state improved, it also faltered. It was on a fateful night that Akiko was having another series of muscles contractions, it closed off her airways and her body started having painful spasms. She tried to scream out in pain and Yubi tried to get help as fast as she could but when she got back to the room, she looked into Akiko's eyes, the girl drawing her last breath. Yubi was silent. Her mind was racing as she stared down at the dead body of her girlfriend, the person she loved. Tears began filling her eyes as she leaned down the body, embracing it and pressing her lips onto those of Akiko. Next she can remember was her fainting and being caught by the nurses.
Yubi would enter the rehab program and prayed for Akiko every day. In her heart, she knew Akiko was around her, watching over to make sure she was keeping her promises. And Yubi did get far with the rehab, losing the addiction to heroin and alcohol. However she still was a bit reliant on soft drugs, but that was the best that would happen.
For the year after that, she would begin working more with computers, becoming a skilled programmer and often playing around with different technology to create some new fun gadgets she could play with. She would still go to arcades, where she was one day noticed using her power by someone from an institute known as Mosshurst. The man offered her to live there, and that they would help her get better at controlling her powers. Yubi agreed, knowing this would probably be the most favourable situation she could wish for. And so, Yubi began living at Mosshurst with the many other gifted people like herself.

Name: Kim Su-bin
Nickname: Her dads always call her Ducky
Date of birth/Age/place of birth: December 8th / 24 / Heshun, China
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Pansexual
Power (List abilities, weaknesses, etc.): Dimensional Rifting
Su-bin creates cracks within reality itself, opening rifts to other dimensions to lend their power. Despite being very powerful, the rifts are quite unstable and not the safest thing to use if the user has no experience. Luckily Su-bin has been practicing for a long time and knows the limits of what she can do, what the rifts can do, and what may lurk behind the appearance of a simple rift.
Specifics:
With her ability to rip rifts to other dimensions, Su-bin has learned to control specific ones she can actually tear open with a lower risk to herself and others. Currently, she has 4 rifts she knows she can often open.
The first is a rift which has a creature lurking within it. Strangely, this creature feels like it has to help Su-bin whenever she rips into his dimension. Su-bin knows very little of the creature or its appearance besides that whenever she opens it at the palm of her hand, a small cluster of blue fluorescent tenctacles grasp out to slam against the target.
The second is a rift to a dimension which holds something like a guardian angel. Su-bin has no idea what drives the creature to want to protect her but if she makes a cross motion to rip open the rift, it will create a temporary barrier just a little taller than herself that will stop a maximum of 3 projectiles or disappear after 15 seconds.
The third is a rift that holds nothing special. Su-bin likes to call it the "zip-rift" because it allows her to make a vertical tear that when she steps through it, will put her up to 10 feet forward, depending on what she wishes the distance to be.
The fourth is a rift that is a bit more special. It has no combat ability or helps her in any way, it's a rift that she opens with a circular rip that opens up into a small dimension she can spend time inside. In this small dimension no harm can be done to others and her rules count. She can create anything at will such as a couch, a drink or whatever else.
Limitations:
As mentioned, Su-bin has no true idea of what hides within these other dimensions. She knows the few she opens regularly are safe, but opening any other rift could be disasterous. This means she decides to only open the 4 rifts she knows are safe, as to not hurt others.
Another issue with the rifts, if she uses them too frequently she starts having migraines. She does not know why this happens but when she went overboard one time, it caused her to black out for half a day, therefore she avoids overusing them as much as possible.
In her own little dimension, she can create anything at will but anything which is created within the dimension cannot come out. Of course anything that is taken in from her dimension can come out perfectly fine.
Appearance:
Su-bin has a very feminine appearance. She has a well shaped slim body and she tends to be very confident with it. Her hair is long, going down to about the middle of her upper body and is usually brown or a darker blonde depending on what color she dyes it in. She is pretty tall, standing at 5'8 and weighs 117 lbs. She has smaller, charming eyes with a brown color.
Hair: Brown or dark blonde, depending on dye.
Eyes: Small, brown colored.
Height: 5'8
Build: Slim
Personality:
Su-bin is a very energetic person to be around as she likes to explore the world around her and the people she meets. At times she has a hard time with social cues, not picking up on them as quickly and often as she should and at times crossing some people's boundaries with herself. Despite this she tries to be caring of everyone's preferences, and respects others a lot, even if they are a stranger or if they previously had some sort of quarrel.
She loves to just let loose and go wild, being able to stay full of energy for hours upon hours as she tries to infect others with her energy and happiness, despite knowing with some people it's futile. It's just part of who she is and she isn't scared to back down and wants to own up to it as much as she can.
She also inherently cares for her friends, a lot. She wants to offer them all the support she can, giving them a shoulder to cry on, willing to take a bullet for them or even willing to die for them. She sees good in almost every person and will try her best to try and get it out of them. A way she would love to comfort someone is bring them to her personal dimension and let them ask for anything they want to relax.
Likes:
- Partying
- Travelling and adventure
- Experiencing and trying new things
- Exercise and sports
- Any kind of food
- Dancing and singing
- Photography
Dislikes:
- Sitting still for too long
- Her own underlying laziness
- Silent areas
- Excuses to slack
- People who hurt others for fun
Background:
Su-bin does not remember a lot from her past. She knows she was born somewhere rural in China and faintly remembers her mother and father. What she also remembers is another man, from a country in the West, who often came to see her mother when her father was at work, to talk to her about Su-bin. She can't remember the name she even had back then, but she knows that he mentioned her not being the right kind. And so, all she tends to remember from her actual past is that at 3 years old, she was put up for adoption by her mother.
Perhaps, this was for the better. She ended up being adopted by a couple in South Korea, two men. At first, she was very confused because she hadn't ever heard of love between two men, but as she grew up she learned to live with it. What she also had to learn to live with was the fact that they were both TV personalities so she was put in the splotlight all the time. They ended up giving her her name Su-bin, which fit with her being seen as a beautiful child and always being at the center of attention.
Su-bin was quite fine with people recognizing her a lot, she didn't mind the attention and she never had issues with being nervous or getting stared at on the streets. She always acted kind t oevery human being, talking to everyone she met and treating them with respect. This earned her a lot of love from people and they were telling her to follow in the footsteps of her fathers. However, she had another passion. Her passion was travel. When she was only 16, she would often go around South Korea and the countries with friends or with her fathers so she could see all the different places and persue her hobby of photography.
One day though, she would find out she was capable of a lot more than she thought she was. It was when she was just coming home from a day of school when she was going to go inside but as she walked up the stairs to her front door, she tripped. With her hand she ended up making a swing forward which suddenly caused something in front of her to open up. She found herself landing on her butt behind the door, wondering what had just happened. And this was the starts of her experimenting with her newly discovered potential.
It took her years to properly learn to even control the basics of her power, often experiencing headaches or even blackouts when practicing with it. As she travelled, she would still practice. She travelled all over to experience different cultures and especially the foods of those cultures. Travelling this much made her think of the world in a very different way, being more open to new things and learning that you should never judge any sort of person by their cover.
However when she was approached by what looked like military officials, she was going to experience something even more amazing. The Korean government had picked up on her and her powers, offering her a spot at a special training facility in the States known as Mosshurst. They told her she would experience a lot of new things there and that her fathers were already informed about her going there and they explained them about her powers. She decided to go home and discuss it with them and to her surprise, they were very supportive and wanted to learn more about her powers some day. And so, she went off to join the other people known as the gifted on their journey to become stronger.

Name: Jakub Yie
Nickname: Jak
Date of birth/Age/place of birth: June 25th (Cancer) / 25 / Zürich, Switzerland
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Panromantic asexual
Power (List abilities, weaknesses, etc.): Nights of Reality
Jakub's power is that to manifest the creatures that haunt our dreams, the ones that create our nightmares and give us terrors. They're his demons as much as they are yours, except he is the one that can control them, make them hurt you outside of your nightmares. Though, when he is having his own demons pester him, they escape, and at that point, he cannot save the ones around him.
Specifics:
Jakub has the power to manifest creatures from his nightmares and night terrors. These creatures will be under his control, most of the time. Whenever he is awake and not tired, he can control the creatures to his will to attack or defend for him. He is quite good at controlling his power, knowing how to effectively use it.
A creature will be spawned from his mind, being able to manifest it by thinking about it. The creature takes a while to manifest but once it does, it's under his control and will only listen to whatever he commands them to do. These creatures can be the weirdest, most terrifying beings any person has ever seen.
To properly remember the creatures' appearances, he draws them in a small notebook he always keeps on him. Though he might not always need it, if he is looking for something more powerful, this is is little reminder. Though Jakub does not intend to use his power often, especially not to hurt or scare others, he will be if forced to do so.
Limitations:
Though Jakub is good at using his powers, he is not exempt from danger with his power. As stated, when Jakub is awake, he has full control of the creatures he manifests. However when he is asleep, the control is out of his hands. During his sleep he will accidentally manifest the creatures, who will not hurt him during his sleep but will hurt anyone in his surroundings, no matter who they are.
As well as not being able to control them while asleep, the more creatures he manifests, the more tired he gets. And as he gets tired, he starts to lose the full control of his creations, them being able to turn against him and going out of control to hurt anything within their path unless he is able to dismiss them back to his mind.
Without his notebook, the only creatures he would be able to manifest are those fresh within his mind. The only ones that could be fresh within his mind are ones from his most recent dreams, anything before that is basically wiped from his memory.
Appearance:
Jakub considers himself to be quite average looking, he doesn't try to find himself anything special but is very confident with his appearance. He is quite tall and his body is built quite muscular due to him working out a lot, but nothing too impressive. He has a smooth pale skin and dark brown eyes. He sees his hair as his best aspect, taking very good care of it and always trying to make it look as good as possible. His hair color often depends on what he decides to dye it.
His clothing style varies quite a bit, as he cares about his clothes enough so he looks stylish enough. So often it just comes down to his mood and what he feels like he has to wear that day, if he is going out for a longer time or if he is staying in his spot for the day.
Hair: Longer, styled differently every day. Seen with black, brown or blonde dye.
Eyes: Deep brown
Height: He stands at 6'1
Build: Above average muscular
Personality:
Jakub was always seen as a bit of a weird person. He seemed disconnected from the world, from the others around him. Even then, he did seem quite normal to those who knew him on a surface level. He comes across as someone who is generally a nice person, sparking up conversation with anyone interested and helping those in need of it. Not prone to getting frustrated with others and generally never seen angry.
However, those who know him on a deeper level, and he himself, know that it's more of a facade. In reality, Jakub has no consideration for others, seeing them as simple creatures, and that is how he sees himself as well. He sees no one as special, we are all just walking bags who happen to have some different traits to them. Others being in pain does not bother him but he knows that he is one of the few who have such thoughts about others, so he puts up his disguise of being 'normal'. He also does not feel empathy or sympathy, but is good at pretending he does.
Despite this, Jakub is still quite passionate. Passionate about the things he does see interest in, and those who he sees interest in. He likes being close to people but he knows not to get too close, because every human could be like him; deceptive and waiting for their chance to strike.

Background:
Extra:
When he was still a very young child, nothing seemed to be wrong with Jakub. He was the child of a Swiss man and a Korean mother, born in Zürich where he would live his early years. His family was quite rich, so his life was nothing short of perfect. The boy turned out to have a strong knack for music, especially intrigued by classical music, something that often kept him calm.
As a homeschooled child, with private teachers that came to his home for lessons, he was a bit alienated and had very little social interaction with those of his age, but he did not mind it all that much, he was an exceptionally smart child and was hoping to follow in his father's footsteps as a succesful businessman. However, when he turned thirteen, the clear issues started occuring.
Jakub always ended being a bit troublesome, never really showing emotion anymore to any of his parents, other family or those he interacted with, seeming like he was always stuck in his own world. Though he never really showed any signs of being a dangerous person, usually just holing himself up in his room to listen to music, practice playing the piano or to do some painting. Sadly, no one, not even Jakub himself, knew the extent of his problems.
When he turned sixteen, was around the time when his nightmares took on their forms. Jakub had always had problems with sleeping properly so he was known to make noise in his room until the latest hours of the night, but this was different. Something no one would ever expect. It was when one of the family's maids went to check on him, that she was surprised with something so terrifying that it would end up being her death. What she saw was disturbing and vile creatures around Jakub's room. He was asleep and looked like he was not disturbed at all but the creatures that had manifested scared her so much, that she died of a heart attack on the spot. It was only then that Jakub's parents came to look at what had happened and found the terrifying state of their son's room.
Jakub started slowly realizing the capabilities of his gifts, and he was planning on keeping them dormant, not wanting to unleash the horrors within himself. It was then that he decided that the best course of action, was to begin creating his own, fake personality, one that people would talk to and think nothing of. Over a longer time, he learned to reproduce those emotions that he was missing, the feelings of compassion for others.
It was when his parents had no idea what to do with him, with his powers only getting more dangerous, that they decided to begin looking for somewhere he could be safe, where others would also be safer from him. That is when they were contacted by Mosshurst, an institute that specializes in helping those with powers to help them become less dangerous for not only those around them, but also the people who had these powers themselves.

Extra:
- Jakub is fluent in English, Korean, German and Swiss German
- His favourite color is every color, because every color to him has artistic meaning
- Likes to ask others if he can paint them, to capture their emotions on frame
- Refuses to sleep with other people, knowing if he did the demons he manifests could kill them
- He loves to feel any kind of emotion, as small as possible, because it keeps his mind inspired

Name: Tiffany McErin
Nickname: Tiff, Toadette
Date of birth/Age/place of birth: October 16th (Libra) / 24 / Whistler, British Columbia, Canada
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual
Power (List abilities, weaknesses, etc.): Mother Flora
Since her birth, Tiffany has had the power to control plants and fungi. She has the control over their growth, being able to either make them grow faster or make them grow slowly, along with being able to make plants die. She has the ability to speak to plants and can make them feel happier, increasing their growth or their strength. Along with this, she can control how plants spread, and can use the spores of plants and fungi to have different effects on those around her.
Specifics:
Tiffany can create, shape and manipulate plants and fungi, including wood, vines, plants, moss, mushrooms, mold and parts of them, such as leaves, seeds, roots, fruits and flowers. The user can cause plants to grow, move/attack or even rise from the soil and walk, mutate plants by rearranging DNA structure and revive withered or dead plants.
She can use her power in all kinds of ways, offensively, defensively or for healing potential. She could make the stems of roses grow throny vines to attack those who intend to cause harm, use tree branches as a shield to protect herself from projectiles or attacks and use the spores and pollen of plants. The pollen of a sunflower could heal someone's wounds slowly, but still faster than normally, the spores from fungi could be used to sedate a person, temporarily making them see everything blurry or make them feel nauseous. The vines and branches of trees could also be used as a way to hold people in place or lift them up.
She can also speak to the plants and fungi she grows, to make them feel happier if they seem to be in a bad mood. This will usually help them grow and be stronger.
Limitations:
If Tiffany wants to make use of her powers, she of course has to be close to plants, if no plants are around she can only grow them if she carries seeds for them with her. This then also needs to be on soil where it would allow her to grow those plants. If she wanted to grow them in a desert, she couldn't unless it's a cactus or dry brush.
Of course plants are weak to the natural elements around them. If it was water it could flood the area around her so that it becomes harder to control her plants, fire could easily burn them and ice could freeze the plants so that they would be unable to be moved until the ice melted.
Her pollen and spores can only reach so far, not going further away from where they were spread out than 300 feet. They also cannot change their original direction, they will have to go the direction that Tiffany blew them towards until either she makes them dissipate or they come into contact with someone or something.
Appearance:
Tiffany is quite a tall woman, standing at 5'10 and she weighs 132 pounds. Her hair is thick and naturally a darker chestnut brown but she often dyes it lighter or darker in some spots. Her skin is still rather pale despite how much time she spends outside and her eyes are a deep brown. Overall her body is quite curvy and voluptuous.
She also has a bunch of tattoos, a cross made of branches and flowers on her upper back, a pair of lions with a sigil in the middle on her lower back, a rose on her left forearm, a sleeve of branches, roots and flowers as a sleeve on her left upper arm, the left side extending down to her hips and around to her lower stomach, a right side starting on her right upper hip, at the end of each of these is a dove. On her right hand fingers is Lady, on her left hand fingers is Luck.
Her clothing style is usually something more comfortable or somewhat revealing as she isn't afraid to show off a bit. It would be something like shorts, loose flannel shirts, sweatpants, oversized shirts and so on.
Hair: Chestnut brown, dyed lighter towards the ends.
Eyes: Deep brown
Height: 5'10
Build: Curvey and voluptuous
Personality:
Tiffany is a very let loose and be free type of person. She feels that no one should be stressed in every day life and makes it her goal to try and help others relax, be this through a strong and heartfelt conversation or through her gifting them something with the use of her power. She is kind to everyone except those that intend to try and harm her friends and her plant friends. She is carefree and feels happy at most points during the day. She shines brightly like the sun and wants to radiate her happiness onto others whenever she can, like a sort of hippy.
However she does get very protective of those she cares about, be it human or her plants. If anyone tries to hurt them on purpose, she will drop her usual relaxed demeanor and become rather aggressive towards the one intending harm. She resorts to physical violence though, usually trying to make the aggressor go away by yelling at them or if needed she uses spores to sedate them.
