On her lower half she wears a pair of snug fitting combat trousers trousers, military surplus boots, a brown leather ammo belt filled with bean bag rounds and in a leather holster a very short sawn off double barreled shotgun. She wear a plain black masquerade mask to cover her face. An ear phone cable can normally be seen poking out from her hood, she's probbably using it for comms and not music.
★ PERSONALITY:
- Psychological Profile: The Entrepreneur (ESTP-T)
- Tabloid: "It is this editors opinion that "Rapture" should leave our city without delay. Her lackadaisical devil may care attitude to crime fighting isn't welcome in this town and the longer she remains the greater the danger to the residents of our beautiful city"
- Personal: A headonist through and through Samantha is always looking for the next thrill with minimal work. In her civillian life this translates to excessive partying and a checkered work history. In her vigilante career she tends to escew long winded complicated investigations for a wing it and see what happen style of crime fighting
★ STATS:
- Agility
- Power
- Intelligence
- Constitution
- Strength
- Perception.
★ POWER UTILITY: Meta Human
★ POWER: Gas Manipulation: Samantha can manipulate the movement of gaseous molecues so that they travel against the diffusion gradient. This allows her to create concentrated areas of pressure of up to about six atmospheres around her body. She can enlarge this pressure pocket away from her and with concentration direct it. However the greater the volume or further away from her body the pocket gets the harder it becomes to maintain.

- Narced: Anyone who stays in a pressure pocket of air that Samantha has created will start to become "drunk" on nitrogen after a couple of mineuts. How badly people are affected is down to induviduals but nearly everyone suffers physical and mental impairment. Once returned to normal conditions however victims will make a full and equally rapid recovery
- Breathin Easy: With concentration Samantha can seperate gases out from each other. Mostly she uses this to create a small bubbles of oxygen enriched air to breathe allowing her to go longer and harder in a fight
- Thin, Thin Air: With large amounts of effort and concetration Samantha can using a carefully shaped pressure pocket create area of very low pressure. Anyone caught in this low pressure pocket will be suffocated though they will need to be prevented from moving outside the affected area as Samantha is effectively incapacitated while maintaing a low pressure area. Mostly she uses this ability to put out people's cigarettes at parties.

★ BIOGRAPHY
- Tabloid: "This paper has investigated the past of the have a go hero Rapture and has found a worrying truth. Rapture first appeared eight years ago in London, England but left under a cloud after a bar brawl that she intervened in ended with a passing elderly lady being hospitalised. Since then she has flitted between various cities staying just long enough to stir up trouble before running away from her mess. We can only hope that Rapture reads this paper and realises that she isn't welcome in this city and moves on. If not then our police force must act to remove this menace from the streets."
- Personal:
- Born the only child of well to do parents in the home counties of England, Samantha had a charmed childhood. The manifestation of her power was welcomed by her parents who were fiercely proud of their daughter.
- By the age of eleven the wheels started to come off when Samantha failed the entrance exam for a local public school. A child phycologist concluded that while Samantha was undoubtedly intelligent she was also quite lazy and recommended an military school as a way to straighten her out.
- After struggling to adjust to the new more physical regime Samantha discovered that by using her powers she was able to keep up with and apparently outperform her mostly much larger and stronger peers and got a large thrill out of being able to do so.
- Aged eighteen she left the school with decent grades and took an offer from a London university. While she had no real interest in further education, the lifestyle of a student appealed to her as she thought it provided the perfect front for a becoming vigilante. Also the parties.
- For two and a half years this plan worked well and Samantha built the reputation of Rapture by night and scraped her way through university by day.
- In the February of her final year she intervened in a pub fight that had spilled out onto the street. While she was dealing with one of the bigger combatants she was knocked into an elderly lady who was in turn knocked into the path of a car. While it was only a minor accident the newspapers demonised Rapture for the accident and made it impossible for her to continue her vigilante activities
- Unwilling to give up the thrill of vigilantism, upon graduating Samantha moved to America to take up the Rapture mantle again. It was soon after this that she started using a shotgun with non-lethal rounds to try and stack the odds in her favour against much bigger foes.
- Over the years Samantha has moved multiple times, not as the press make out to get away from her messes but because being a vigilante as well as her natural laziness has made it hard to hold down the jobs which she needs for her visa. She moved to Saint City after cashing in on her aparently posh accent to score a gig as a part time receptionist.
