Noir Lavis

Backstory
Starting her life as a lowerclass person, Noir had made use of many opportunities she had. Stealing had been a big part of her life. Eventually, she had managed to save up some money. She used it to improve her chances around Vale, getting some tough boots, and in some strange instance of splurging, a combat skin. This tight fitting kevlar body suit made her feel safer in the less reputable areas, making Noir somewhat bolder about what she could get her hands on. Then she had seen the Abyssylon 500, watching the bikes fly through the streets of Vale. She was hooked on it, Noir wanted in. This led to her using her talents to secure a bike, with less than successful results. The owner of the bike had been less than impressed that this 22 year old girl thought she could run off with his prized possession. He had told her theives shouldn't take what isn't their's, and when caught, should pay the consequences.

And with that, he had cut off her right hand, and left her to bleed out in an alley. Later she found herself being treated by a man see hadn't seen before. As he had worked on her injured hand, he had introduced himself as Aleco. Adding to this, he explained how he felt about people inflicting pain upon others, without having received any themselves. For that week while she recovered, he had shared his philosophy. At the end of it, he had asked her if she would go back to the man that had done the act and show him what pain meant. Not even for a moment did she consider leaving him to go about his business. Going back that night with Aleco, she had creeped into the house. Upon seeing the man, Noir had been filled with hatred. Suddenly feeling very powerful, she jammed her wounded forearm under his chin. The knife in her remaining hand had started carving into his body. Leaving the man in a sorry state, she had walked out to Aleco with blood covering her. As they drove off, Aleco had offered Noir a job, and the bike. She accepted, and after receiving a high tech prosthetic hand she took on as many jobs as she could. Noir quickly became know as someone that could cause a great deal of pain. Ten months work gave her the impression that she needed something more powerful. Going to the same man that had made her hand, she got him to build her a three armed device for various activities. With this, Noir's options widened. Suddenly, she could take jobs against people without assistance. Her profits increased dramatically, and with them she purchased a custom airjet, one that was larger with two extra jets on the tail. Squeezing her bike in, it became her home.

Noir continued taking jobs, earning a nice amount of money. Purchasing two AK-130's, she got them reconfigured. One was lightened and programed for piloting her airjet, the other equipped for maintenance on it. With all this, Noir is very well equipped for the future.

Appearance
Noir wears a fitting black combat skin that shows off her figure. The black high heeled boots match this kevlar suit. Black hair flows just past her shoulders. Phantom Limb is a charcol grey and looks somewhat like a single wing behind her right shoulder when stored.

Weapons and skills
The weapon Noir uses is Phantom Limb, a device with three sturdy but flexable limbs containing various features. These limbs originate from a small hub that is strapped behind Noir's right shoulder. The uppermost limb is very lightweight, being used for peircing targets with the extendable needle and deflecting lighter attacks. The middle limb is were most combat uses are, with it containing both a automatic rifle and sharp edge to block blows or cut at a target. The last limb is much more tactical and much larger. This one can extend into a small shield and deliver jabs with quite some force as well as containing several magnesium flares. As for Noir herself, other than using her prosthetic hand to control all this, has no hand to hand skill at all. She does have proven skills at torturing, though these do not come into combat. Her semblance however, can help. Noir possesses the ability to make someone with skin contact feel as if everything is worse, pain seems intensified and it may even cause one to feel more exhausted than they are. This is best used as something to cripple someone towards the end of a fight, or as a last ditch effort.

Personality
Noir is a very determined person, often being brutal to get to her goal. She was once more relaxed about this but after the incident that lost her hand, she took on a much greater desire to get things done. This pain she experienced brought her into contact with Aleco. During her recovery, he told her of his view about pain. That those who gave it without first experiencing it, were nothing more than a blight. Noir came to agree with this philosophy, and after torturing the man that had cut off her hand, she began to embrace it. The interest in the human body came with this, learning how people worked.
