Slamdance
Context
This original sort-of-super-heroine was submitted on our lil’ community circa… 2000 ? I can never remember the dates. Before we started adding dates to the profiles, anyway.
Later on I added an illustration since i needed to experiment with the Saints Row character generator anyway.

Powers and Abilities
Slamdance can effectively absorb any and all kinetic energy directed her way. She can then channel this energy into balls of concussive force that packs a wallop.
However, though she’s virtually invulnerable to kinetic energy directed at her, if she over does it, or tries to hold onto the energy for too long, her body rejects it. The energy is released in an explosive blast that can level cities leaving her drained and exhausted.
History
Yuko Mills is a petite Japanese-American teenager with a big secret. She possesses a bizarre mutant ability that allows her to absorb and store kinetic energy. She is effectively immune to all kinetic/ballistic damage, as she can absorb the force of the blow and then turn it back outward, amplified exponentially.
If she stores up the energy and it accumulates until she can no longer hold it in, it blasts outward in all directions, leaving her spent and exhausted. Needless to say, she’s got a destructive personality.
She dresses in a plaid mini-skirt, white short-sleeve blouse with her name and student number sewn over the right breast pocket, a girlish tie, knee socks, and combat boots.
When she goes on a rampage or throws a temper tantrum, she puts some thrashing mosh-pit style music on her iPod and literally bounces off the walls. She’s able to release pent up energy almost as fast as she builds it, destroying virtually anything she touches.

Bonuses and Limitations:
- Mental blast has No Range.
- Kinetic Absorption adds to Power Reserve (+3).
- Power Reserve must be fueled by Kinetic Absorption (BC 75, FC 5).
- Overspill: Kinetic Absorption is effectively ‘limitless’. However when Slamdance absorbs more APs then her rank she must pay 3 Hero Points for each AP above her Kinetic Absorption rank. If she fails to pay this for any reason, her Bomb power activates at the total absorption for that round.
- Misc: All energy absorbed in a round must be spent in the next Phase, if not Bomb power automatically activates at remaining AP levels.
- Misc: Bomb can only be used if all energy absorbed in previous round is not spent or Slamdance is unable to pay the HP cost to absorb overspill.
- Bomb use is Fatiguing.
