NPC-Claire

Empathic Cat Lady
Introduction xxxxxA woman who went from farm-life to street-life to academia to being a lawyer in America. Originally French. Has /lots/ of connections -- particularly with telepaths -- many whom tend to find her presence quite... soothing. History xxxxxBorn on a French farm, Claire Basil eventually ran away with her sister (a more obvious mutant), grew up on city streets, got noticed by a man interested in children with psionic abilities, and eventually ended up with a large endowment from said gentleman after his death. She used said endowment to move to the Americas, where she studied psychology and law. She still has contact with a lot of her fellow French students (all of whom received sizable endowments from their deceased teacher), almost all of whom are telepaths of varying power. xxxxxThey form something of an 'unofficial club', and even meet once a year to compare notes in the struggle for affirming mutant rights. Powers xxxxxClaire has the ability to increase or decrease 'clarity' in parties around her. She has practiced the former to the point where she does it without thinking to everyone around her; people tend to think more clearly in her presence. However, her power's potency decreases in relation to how many people she's trying to effect at once -- more people means less power. xxxxxShe cannot change someone's mind, or their goals -- but she can help them think of ways to reach those goals more effectively (or interfere with the ability to think of ways to reach those goals). In short, she defrags people's mental hard-drives (or RE-frags them). This makes her highly useful for telepaths -- when used positively, she can 'optimize' their ability to control their powers. It also makes her highly /dangerous/ to telepaths -- since she can /shut down/ their ability to control their powers. Connections Friends Parley - Pawsitively adorable. Currently employed as her professional kitten, translator, and telepath. Nox - Poor duckling's going to get herself in trouble. Michael - Blue and climbs trees. What's not to like? Rasa - Dispelling all the lingering myths of 'kids these days'. Shane - Rude, but she has a soft spot for rudeness. Kisha - She looks like she's in desperate need of some sleep...! Foes Murphy - Va te faire foutre. And everything in between Granuaile - Poor dear needs some help with her budding powers, but she's not going to make offering it easy. Emma - What on /earth/ has this woman gotten herself into?

That's kind of a super-power? Telepaths - She keeps tabs on them. Partly because she can help; partly because she's known quite a few that were naughty. Mutant Rights - Quiet, but passionate. She makes a lot of noise only when noise will get the job done. Cats - She has, like, six. She is working her way to being a deranged cat-lady. Connections - Known as 'that lady who defends a lot of mutants pro bono'. Knows a lot, particularly telepaths. Isn't always forthcoming about /her/ status, though.
