PERSONAL STYLE:
Chevonne likes to dress stylishly and tries to keep up with the latest fashions by reading magazines. She doesn’t like anything too flashy though. Depending on the occasion and living and working in New York City she is surrounded by some of the best fashion designers in the world.
Of course in her wardrobe there is that little black dress that can be worn to almost anything from a casual function to something a bit more formal. For a full formal function she would wear something appropriate like a full length sheath gown. When she is working she generally wears some kind of dark colored slacks, black, brown, or grey with an appropriate blouse and usually a jacket or blazer of some type.
Depending on the weather she will usually wear some fashionable boots or classic pumps. When she’s not working and she’s casual she can wear just about anything. Classic jeans and t-shirts are always a favorite. She loves to shop so she has lots of different types of clothes she loves to wear, dresses, shorts, tank tops, cargo pants, sweaters, hoodie sweatshirts. Whatever, she can be comfortable in and is appropriate for the situation.
Personality
GENERAL PERSONALITY:
Chevonne started out as a happy child. Though events in her life have caused her to become more introverted, the happy girl does get to peek through now and then. Sometimes she can seem to be moody, but mostly that is part of her just isolating herself.
Chevonne is a pretty nice girl. Down to earth and likable for the most part. She was raised to have manners and behave. However, she also had a big brother who taught her how to take care of herself. Chevonne can have a sarcastic wit and attitude sometimes that she gets from her brother. She also doesn't like to take shit from people. She will stand up for herself.
Having a brother who was a few years older than her, she liked to follow him around and pester him whenever she could. He taught her a lot though and she knows how to handle people. She knows when to play nice and when it's time to get tough. She is very good at being able to move back and forth between being the good girl and the tough girl.
Overall, she's not overly friendly but she's not a bitch either.

- Technopathy
- Mechanical Manipulation
- Eidetic/Photographic Memory
Technopathy/Mechanical Manipulation
Chevonne is what some have termed a technopath. She has an extraordinary ability to operate or fix things. Pretty much anything electronic or mechanical she can figure out within moments. Computers and any other similar technology like phones, iPads, iPods, PDAs, TVs, etc.. Mechanical equipment, which include weaponry, vehicles, appliances other machines.
It's similar to a psychic ability that somehow allows her to mentally communicate with devices. She doesn't even know how it works. It just does. She can take things apart, put them back together, alter them, fix them, and enhance them.
Chevonne also has an eidetic or photographic memory.
SKILLS:
- Computer expert
- Mechanically Inclined
- Martial Arts Training (from ex-Marine brother)
LIMITS AND FLAWS:
In order for her abilities to work she has to either be able to touch the object or be connected to it in some manner. Like she can access technology via a computer interface of some kind.
Most mechanical items she has to be in physical contact with unless they have a computer chip and then she can access them remotely using some kind of electronic device to connect to the item.
Chevonne's power is also limited particularly with the mechanical part. The more complex the machine the more energy and mental power it takes. It also depends on what she is trying to do with the object. For example, if she is just trying to fire a weapon or fly a helicopter that is much easier than say, trying to take apart and rebuild a helicopter.
History
Chevonne's early years were spent growing up on the family ranch in west Texas. She spent a lot of time following her older brother Cole around, generally being a pain in his backside. Though, in reality... he loved his baby sister to death and she knew it. She had him wrapped around her little finger. Everything was pretty normal for her, a good childhood up until she was thirteen years old.
When she was thirteen, her older brother Cole had turned eighteen and decided that he needed to do something honorable by serving his country. He left the family and joined the Marines. The first couple years while her brother was away continued to be fairly normal for Chevonne. Though she missed her big brother greatly, she still went to school, had friends, rode her horses, and enjoyed her life on the ranch with her parents.
Everything stayed good and on track until she was seventeen. Then her life was turned upside down. It was the summer before her senior year in high school. She was pretty excited about that. But, one day when she had gone with some friends to the lake, she came home to a horrible scene. There were flashing lights of police cars, fire trucks and ambulances surrounding their home.
Running up the long driveway from where she had been dropped off, she tried to get inside the house but was stopped by a police officer. She was frantic. All she wanted was to get inside, to see her parents and make sure they were OK. But, everything was not OK. The police man told her that she couldn't go inside. That something terrible had happened. Her mother and father were dead. It had looked like her father killed her mother and then killed himself. The theory was that he was struck by a mysterious illness and had gone insane.
Chevonne didn't believe it for a second.
Chevonne was allowed to stay with the family of one of her friends while law enforcement tried to contact her brother Cole. It took some doing as he was overseas and on some type of covert mission where they were not able to contact him. When her brother was finally contacted and able to get home, it had been weeks since the incident.
Finally, the brother and sister were reunited. Chevonne could tell that her brother had changed. His time in the military had taken its toll on him. To come home to find out his parents were dead and the circumstances surrounding that didn't help his demeanor. Of course, when he saw Chevonne, he tried to hide all that inside him, but she could see it in his eyes.
Cole had already decided to leave the military. But, now he wasn't sure what to do. He knew he had to help take care of Chevonne. However, he had a restless streak. For the next several months he did his best to make sure that Chevonne stayed on track and finished high school.
Chevonne was an extremely bright girl and had always gotten straight A's in school. With her brother's help, she was able to continue that. School actually came easy to her. Graduating at the top of her class, (the photographic memory comes in handy) Chevonne then went on to college at MIT in Cambridge, MA where she got advanced degrees in Engineering and Computer Science, again graduating at the top of her class.
While Chevonne was getting her education, Cole initially stayed in close contact with her. As time went on though, he started to drift away.
Having made it through school, she found herself alone in the world. She didn't know what to do. She started to act out and become a little bit reckless.
Chevonne had some money from her parents' life insurance and savings that she had inherited, along with the proceeds from the sale of their ranch.
Chevonne had always been extremely smart, good with math, computers, and mechanical things. These were the reasons she got her degree in Engineering and Computer Science.
She is a technopath who can also manipulate anything mechanical. It's like a psychic ability that allows her to communicate with these types of objects. Pretty much anything computer, electronic or mechanical.
RP Sample
[dropcap]Sipping on her beer she watched the rock paper scissors match to see who would go first. Well, that was certainly an interesting way to make a decision for a couple of tough guys she thought to herself.
It was determined that the other team would go first and Chevonne leaned against a table, holding her pool cue while she watched one man break and a striped ball fall into a pocket. Another shot and a miss. Now it was Derek and Chevonne's turn.
Derek came over to her and spoke to her. Acting like he was coaching her, reminding her that she could only hit the solid colored balls. She put a serious look on her face and nodded, looking at the table intently as if she was sizing up what she should do."Ok, I just shoot for the solid colors. Got it."
Pushing off from the table she walked over to the side of the pool table where the cue ball was closest. Leaning on her stick she put her other hand up to her face and tapped her lip. Making it look like she was mulling over the shot.
Lifting up her stick she bent over and made to set up a shot. She made a show of wiggling her ass, under the guise of making sure she was lining up the ball properly. Pulling back on the pool cue and then shoved it forward, smacking the tip into the white ball. The ball shot off the end and rolled down the table, it hit the green number six ball. But, the green ball roll way wide of the pocket, hit the rail bumper and ricocheted back and crashed into a clump of balls in the middle of the table, spreading balls out everywhere.
Essentially, she had just broken up the table... actually making it easier for the other team to get some easy shots in. She thought that was a pretty good idea, since they had to lose a round or two first.
Standing up straight she banged the end of the pool cue on the ground and put on a little pout."Darn it. That wasn't good was it. It didn't go in."
She let out a little sigh and walked back over to where her beer was sitting, picked it up and took a sip. While the other two talked over their next shot she smiled at Derek and whispered."So, how did I do?"
