Name: Petra (last name unknown)
Alpha Name: Organis
Age: Unknown
Powers: It's difficult to explain. The core concept revolves around unlocking the potential of Cells and controlling them at an individual level, but this also leads to a plethora of other seemingly unrelated traits which may or may not be useful depending on how much Petra has discovered about her abilities. Some are:
-High stamina
-Resistance to disease
-Control of adrenaline
-Faster healing than a normal person
-Longer lifespan
-Slight body manipulation (face, skin, bone structure, size)
-Can alter her voice
-Pain Nullification (Or amplification)
-Could potentially survive injuries that would kill a normal person.
-Ability to sense living beings nearby
-Ability to sense the biological innerworkings of other people's bodies upon touch.
-Can last longer without food or water (but sometimes needs MORE calories than normal depending on her activity)
And the one that matters most:
-Surpassing human limits of strength, speed, reflexes, senses, and intelligence (which still isn't saying much compared to other powers. Also, note that she's intelligent, NOT knowledgeable)
-These are not all of the abilities Petra could potentially learn. They are simply what she owns currently. What she will discover depends on her future experiences.
-Also, unlike other superpowers, hers are technically not supernatural, all laying within the realm of biologically plausible. This is a key concept and limitation of her vague and versatile abilites. This ensures that they don't stretch into other powers. (For example, someone with super strength is super strong without the need for bulging muscles. Thus, if it would be even possible for Organis to match the same level of strength, her muscle mass and bone durability would need to be FAR greater to compensate, along with other factors)
Appearance: She is far older than she looks due to her abilities. She can alter her appearance slightly, but traditionally she looks like a young woman in her teenage years, which signifies that she could have obtained her powers at that age, as it would be the most natural for her. However, the complexion of her white skin and symmetry of her thick face and neck are almost unnaturally perfect (although she owns many freckles as well), traits that have attracted many stares from both men and women, whether she intended it or not. In her most natural state, she's short, curvy, stocky and strong at 5'5" and 142 lbs, but she can fluctuate these numbers. Her straight, bright orange hair is so long that it reaches her knees and seems to never dirty. She wears a pair of small, ellipse-shaped glasses over her deep, violet eyes.
Costume: None. She wears comfortable clothing, usually a hoodie, a loose t-shirt underneath, some sweatpants rolled up to her knees, and long-lasting sneakers. She also wears a tight underarmor tank top under everything, however, in the case she is engaged in any way and might rip up her other clothes if she doesn't take them off.
Backstory: Some of the older residents of Nova city remember sightings of the girl currently known as Petra decades ago, astonished that she looked exactly the same. In both the present and the past she's been reported to act strangely, such as looking at her hand as if it were the first time she's ever seen it and screaming in agony as doctors fail to provide an explanation. Practically nothing is known of her age, childhood, nor how she achieved her odd traits. Even Petra herself is clueless as to how her abilities originated. Perhaps she will learn more one day...

An anonymous figure strode along the sidewalk in an oversized grey hoodie, hood over her head, a long stream of orange hair hanging down the front of her body. As she halted to clean her glasses, she heard a brief but powerful WHIFF along the road. She hadn't caught the moment, but she already knew who it was: Shane. In a city becoming famous for miraculoualy spawning an increasing number of people with extraordinary abilites, Shane was adorable in that he seemed oblivious to other Alpha humans--who laid low profiles in general--yet on a daily basis he zipped around everywhere at what seemed to be hundreds of miles per hour before occasionally attempting to hide his speed during social interaction.
Petra herself had special traits, but like many Nova citizens, they weren't nearly as significant as Shane's along with a few others she had seen and/or heard of. Although, she supposed she could consider herself the first Alpha human if that was anything to go by, as others had only emerged within the last two decades. Along with wondering if she was somehow involved with this recent explosion of superpowers, she also waited for the day that someone would use their powers for malicious intentions...
Petra was distracted from her train of thought as she overheard an intriguing dialog a couple blocks away, also sensing two life forms in that same location. She wandered over curiously before retaining her casual stroll along the sidewalk once she approached their line of sight to reduce her chances of appearing nosey.
A quick glimpse revealed a teenage boy and girl, both presumably Alpha humans. The girl had thrown a punch at the boy, but given what he had said before about being able to predict moves, this was no surprise. What WAS surprising was what he said next.
"Listen, I'm not the best at proving my powers, but, I know three guys who do have way more noticeable powers than me. If you show me your power...I'll take you to meet one of them."
Oh boy, Petra thought, her violet eyes staring down in anxious contemplation, her glasses reflecting the light of the setting sun. The thought of teenage Alpha humans forming teams worried her, ESPECIALLY given the girl's claim of time space manipulation (although the details were still very vague), but she was unsure what to do about it. So, she simply continued onward, hoping that she was paid no attention.
