= Biography =
As a young child, Space Dread had ambitions of becoming a juggler"Aspirations" (March 10, 2018). However, she ended up becoming an assassin instead.
At an unspecified point in time, Dread came out as transgender, and began transitioning, presumably aided by the Gender Wizard"Monthly Appointment" (September 10, 2020).
Around the same time Dread became an assassin, she started experimenting with dark magichttps://tredlocity.tumblr.com/post/171764776730 (March 11, 2018).
Early in her assassination career, Space Dread accidentally scheduled an assassination gig the same day she attended a convention. In her rush, she completed the job while still wearing her Shadowist Zora cosplay. The iconic look became permanent for the assassin, though she still regrets not being able to attend a certain panel from the con. "How Space Dread Got Her Look"
Space Dread was at one point hired to assassinate Val, the first known interaction between them"Dating Space Mercenaries" (January 18, 2017). This was the first (and perhaps only) time Dread failed to kill her target. After this incident, the two went on a single date together, which went awkwardly, but they have remained friendshttps://tredlocity.tumblr.com/post/157207421310 (February 13, 2017).
= Abilities =
== Shapeshifting ==
Space Dread has the ability to shapeshift into various forms. However, using this ability gives her headaches, so she uses it sparinglyhttps://tredlocity.tumblr.com/post/164142325860 (August 13, 2017). Nevertheless, she has used it for mundane purposes, such as obtaining extra free samples at a grocery store"Shapeshifter Perks" (November 2, 2018), cheating at pokerhttps://tredlocity.tumblr.com/post/181123029120/ (December 15. 2018)], or reserving additional seats at a movie"Shapeshifter Perks" (April 28, 2019). She has been known to shapeshift into an approximation of Minnow to gain the ability to breathe water"Underwater" (June 13, 2018).
A major limitation of her shapeshifting is that if she attempts to become smaller, she will become stuck and unable to revert to her true form "Undercover" (February 20, 2019)https://tredlocity.tumblr.com/post/189420227325/ (December 1, 2019). She also cannot have more than 36 arms at a time.Statement by Tredlocity at 5:18 p.m. 7 Sept. 2020 UTC on the Val and Isaac discord.
== Dark Magic ==
Dread has used dark magic from a young agehttps://tredlocity.tumblr.com/post/171764776730/ (March 11, 2018). The differences between dark magic and "normal" magic are unclear, other than that dark magic seems to involve invoking higher powers to accomplish similar results"Compare Notes" (August 14, 2018).
== Cybernetics ==
Dread has been confirmed to have a large number of cybernetic implantshttps://tredlocity.tumblr.com/post/164064972515/ (August 11, 2017). The full extent of this has not been stated. A partial list of cybernetic implants she has been confirmed to have is:
* A flamethrower in her lower-left eye and a fire extinguisher in her upper-left eye "Cybernetics"(September 30, 2020)
* A capsule in her clavicle filled with cyber-ants Weapon Implants
