Phoebe Daryl

Phoebe Daryl, also known by her vigilante name Shutterbug, is a photographer and part-time superhero who works alongside the Project Cape Initiative. Using her magic-infused camera and enhanced vision, she acts more like a scout for the team, rarely engaging in combat.
Shutterbug hails from the Project Cape franchise, making her debut in its inaugural game.
==Appearance==
Phoebe is a short, petite woman, standing at 5 foot 4 inches. She has light blue eyes, often seen with glasses, and has long, black hair with some tufts sticking out of the front.
Phoebe's hero costume is much more subdued than her teammates', due to her status as a scout. As such, she wears a gray polo shirt with a circular yellow emblem, black jeans (the pockets of which she usually uses to hold film), and black dress shoes. She also wears her camera around her neck with a long strap.
Off duty, Phoebe's outfit is quite similar to her hero outfit, albeit without the emblem on her shirt.
==Personality==
Phoebe is very shy and quiet, being easy to startle. She often finds herself worrying about the situations she finds herself in, often fearing the worst. Her self-esteem is also very low, feeling as if she is invaluable to the team. Overall, Phoebe struggles heavily with her anxieties, but tries to put on a brave face for the rest of the team.
Phoebe also boasts some degree of high intelligence, and has a tendency to focus on details rather than the big picture; While useful for coming up with developed strategies, she hates going into things without a detailed plan, which she often has to do given her line of work.
Phoebe often feels best when partaking in her favorite hobby: Photography. While she tends to do this alone, she doesn't mind having a close friend join her. She is quite skilled in taking pictures, and knows how to get the best results possible.
==Abilities==
Shutterbug's abilities stem from her magic camera, and she can use the majority of them only when it is in close proximity to her. Most of these skills are mainly done via use of said camera, but it also gives Shutterbug's body certain enhancements.
*Enhanced Vision: By focusing, Shutterbug can see details from up to twelve miles away (four times the maximum viewing distance of the average human). However, overuse of this ability gives Shutterbug a major headache.
**Night Vision: Shutterbug can see in the dark.
*Photographic Memory: By studying an object or scene for a few seconds, Shutterbug can develop an identical mental image which she can recall with vivid accuracy. However, the time needed to "develop" the image depends on the size and detail of the subject, and she can only have one image in her memory at a time.
Shutterbug's camera itself also bestows her with various powers:
*"Blinding Bulb": When at close range, the flash of Shutterbug's camera can temporarily blind people.
*"Freeze Frame": By taking an image with her camera, Shutterbug can freeze anything caught in the lens for up to a minute.
*Light Shots: Shutterbug can shoot small beams of light from her camera. The shots are painful upon contact with the skin, but deal no damage to other materials and can be reflected by glass and metal.
*"Static Field": Shutterbug's camera can create a field of "static". People caught in the static have their vision and hearing impaired, being disrupted by static and white noise respectively.
==History==
Living in Australia all of her life, Phoebe had a decent home life and did well enough in school, pursuing her degree in photography. While on an expedition for a class trip, she stumbled upon a seemingly abandoned campsite, with a camera sitting in a doused campfire. As soon as she picked up the camera, she felt a sense of power surge through her. While she didn't know that the camera had granted her supernatural abilities at that point in time, she took the camera back to school to study it.
After some research, she learned that the camera was a supposedly cursed artifact which granted the holder abilities over vision and time. This instantly made her paranoid, trying to keep the camera a secret from everyone in her life. Despite this, she was eventually approached by the Project Cape Initiative, saying that they've had an interest in the camera and that Shutterbug could join their ranks as long as she let them study it. After some hesitation, she agreed, now acting as a scout for the team.
