    Velvet

    I charge extra for subtle!

    Some say her name suggests a velvet glove cast in iron. The solid gauntlet covering her powerful fists give credence to that belief. She wears a form-fitting, deep blue dress, cut for ease of motion with a wide belt loaded with gadgets beneath a dark blue cloak capable of deflecting powerful attacks. She can jump as far as a quarter mile, and utilizes a snare-line in her belt to avoid unplanned falls.

    INSIDER INFO: Born into money, the socialite Juliana Vanderkamp lived a high-profile life of a young woman who liked to party. An aneurysm brought on by an accidental overdose awoke her latent super-strength. Seeing it as a second chance, she turned her life around, using her inheritance to finance a career as a super-hero. She takes life more seriously now, and digs in stubbornly in the face of adversity. While her party-girl lifestyle is greatly curtailed, she has replaced it with a fondness for a good scrap.
