The Empress (A Hat in Time)

==Summary==
The Empress is a major character from the indie title A Hat in Time and the main antagonist of Nyakuza Metro, the games 7th chapter, and 2nd DLC installment.
Upon retrieving her first Time Piece, Hat Kid is recruited by the Empress who sees a uniqueness in Hat Kid, believing she could retrieve more Time Pieces for Le Félin, The Empress' crime organized business. As expected, Hat Kid successfully retrieves all Time Pieces for the Empress, but later attempts to escape with them, and thus in the end, the Empress fails to reclaim her newly discovered "jewelry".
==Powers and Stats==
Tier: At least , likely higher
Name: The Empress
Origin: A Hat in Time
Gender: Female
Age: Unknown
Classification: Cat, Owner of Le Félin, Gang leader
Powers and Abilities: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Social Influencing (She is highly persuasive, as she was able to motivate Hat Kid & her minions with hefty payments) & possible Genius Intelligence (A successful business owner and crime leader, being able to easily get her way by presumably striking fear into those who work for her), Natural Weaponry (Via Sharp Claws and presumably Sharp Teeth), Acrobatics & Enhanced Senses (Should scale to her henchmen. As a cat, she should be granted these abilities), Weapon Proficency (Skilled with a rocket launcher); Explosion Manipulation, Flame Generation, Smoke Manipulation, & minor Light Projection via Rocket Launcher
Attack Potency: At least Small Building level, likely higher (Can oneshot Hat Kid with a claw swipe. Should as well be superior to the henchman mini-boss who fights Hat Kid.)
Speed: Supersonic (Comparable to Hat Kid)
Lifting Strength: At least Peak Human (Can haul her bulky rocket launcher over one of her shoulders)
Striking Strength: At least Small Building level, likely higher (A single swipe from her claws is enough to oneshot Hat Kid)

Standard Equipment: Stashes of cash & her rocket launcher. Temporarily Time Pieces
Intelligence: While the Empress is short tempered and somewhat extreme punishment-wise, it would be difficult to deny her successful and ingenious stance as both a gang leader and business owner. She is able to acquire high amounts of jewelry through works of crime by assigning her henchmen to attend certain tasks to get her more jewelry, and as result, she fuels her business of Le Félin via her crime work and acquirement of jewelry, and receives massive amounts of income because of it. She has effective methods of intimidation, and is inventively persuasive, as she used these traits to use Hat Kid into bringing her more Time Pieces into her business. Even while Hat Kid tried escaping from the Metro, the Empress was still a step ahead of Hat Kid, and would've been able to thwart her escape had law authority not stepped in.
Weaknesses: She appears to be rather short tempered, going as far as to murder her own henchmen for touching her jewelry
