*“If you think I'm going to move you must be dreaming, so wake up and apologize, got every muscle focused on this, including the one up here*”

Kimberly Braddock Dukes, more notably known as her alias Brakes, is the newly emerged freelance heroine of the only child of the two late veteran mutants. and offspring of the late mutants Elizabeth. One of the few remaining Omega level mutants after surviving the recent superhuman purge due to her refuge within the otherworld in an attempt to conceal her existence from the former extremist cult nation of Krakoa. She now has begun to live her life freely as was the final wish of her parents, the current heiress to the Captain Britain title she has yet to claim such preferring to abstain from such responsibilities for the meantime.

## History

Unknown to the world, Kimberly herself was conceived following the unlikely union of their parents during their presence within alternate earth in which a Mutant utopian society caused the two to develop very differently. The experiences within this world resulted in the relationship being continued even after their original memories were restored and they were returned to the current universe.

Following a vivid precognitive dream, Her mother made the difficult decision to conceal her daughter to be from the world and spirit them away to the Otherworld in order to avoid becoming involved with the cult nation of Krakoa. Kept isolated her daughter would remain a secret of many years, training within Avalon in order to be able to protect herself should the mutant threat escalate or she is discovered. Deeply wishing for her freedom the guise was continued up until the decimation event that removed a great deal of the heroes and villains from the world at which time it was deemed safe to finally return to the native plane.

As a result of the Hero decimation, however, the mantle of Captain Britain would become vacant and as the remaining heiress to the line, the responsibility would fall to her. Having just gained her freedom to live her life through Kimberly was not wishing to give such up as quickly resulting in abstaining and leaving the title for now.

She has instead been operating as a hero under her own name while also undertaking university studies in superhuman law to craft a life of her own choosing.

## Appearance

A towering young woman in her late teens with a well proportioned if extremely curved figure. Her frame is wrapped intoned muscle especially within her thick legs and an overall hourglass frame. Fine raven hair flows down to her chin though styled in a somewhat wild fashion along with a single purple highlight towards the front, the ends curling naturally. This frames amethyst eyes that seem to shine along with refined asian features. The most notable thing about her other than their beauty and size is the towering confidence in which they walk yet at the same time maintaining an odd gentleness and grace to her actions.

Upon manifesting her more powerful psionic abilities it is not uncommon for a large butterfly type design to appear composed entirely of psionic pink energy.

## *Personalit*y

Defined by several overpowering personality traits, some of which are at direct odds with one another but what bridges all of it is her confidence. Much like her mother Brake takes the greatest pride in her ability to depend on herself for just about anything, never finding a situation too grim for hope. Shes of the disposition to believe that anything can be overcome with sufficient determination and resolve, with her abilities and resources only bolstering this belief, if it can not be overcome with one method it can with another. Nothing is ever impossible and she holds very little time for those who disagree. She will push forward regardless of the obstacles in all her beliefs, proving those who put faith in her they are not mistaken in there own.

If she desires something, she will aim to get it regardless of what the world says to the contrary, putting a high value on her own personal freedom and identity. It is possibly this reason that she has yet to fully accept the entirety of her legacy, with the focus on finding her own way until she adopts the title of another. Despite all this, she holds a strong sense of right and wrong, though is somewhat liberal in her actions upon such. Never the less she struggles to turn away from a injustice and will seek to right it regardless of the consequences, including legal ones.

To this extent, she has shown to have a strong aversion to control authority over herself, manipulation most of all. The rules themselves being seen more like guidelines in any respect.

Off the clock, though, Kimberly can be a very charming, fun person. She enjoys a very high quality of living, and anyone able to match it would have no trouble seeing the vibrant, dryly humorous side of her personality. Unfortunately, because of her exacting tastes, most of her friends tend to be the fellow rich or other longtime Avalon denizens who've spent years getting to know her. To those capable of making it over that wall, she's a loyal friend and a surprisingly gentle soul.

## Powers/Abilities

Brakes is a powerful mutant baring both her mother's potent psychic abilities as well as a variation of her father's physical enhancements, the later mutating to a new form. Evaluations place her full potential as an Omega Level mutant thanks to her vast telepathic powers placing her in the upper echelons especially with the passing of previous holders of the rank.

### Powers

**Superhuman Durability and Strength:** Brakes body possesses an incredibly high degree of resistance to injury and burgeoning physical might. The full makeup of her physiology has been noted to be non-euclidean in nature and as a result, the various layers are both far denser and deeper than her outward appearance would suggest. This is most notable in both the fat and muscle tissues that comprise her body as well as the epidermis layer, capable of absorbing bullets, rockets, and even torpedoes. The tissue of these layers is resilient enough to revert to their normal shape within seconds of any deformation caused by impact rendering it virtually impervious to physical injury. The skin can not be punctured or lacerated by most known materials, frostbitten, burned or ravaged by any skin diseases, due in part to the skin's great elasticity and toughness and in part to the highly accelerated rate at which the cells grow and replace themselves.

* **Pain Immunity:** The Nerve endings within her body do not relay any tactile perception to her brain that is near the threshold of pain which renders her unable to feel such sensations.
* **Trapping:** Direct physical strikes can be captured within her flesh, including limbs and projectiles. She is able to control how long she holds the object and releasing it with or without the recoil pressure. However, it takes Breaks full concentration on trapping an object or individual, and if she were to focus on something else or get distracted by an attack she would lose control of her muscles and release what is being held.
* **Projectile Redirection:** After Brake's body absorbs the kinetic energy of a projectile's impact, she can expel the object back. Fired projectiles would be embedded within Brake's body and, by flexing the muscles where the projectile hits, she can cause the projectile to recoil with half the force of the impact, reflecting it back at half speed. Brake can also recoil a punch thrown at her and throw her opponent back a good distance.
* **Mass Shifting:** Through training, Brake is able to manipulate her mass to mimic a crude form of shape-shifting, using it to enhance the size and extension of her limbs.

**Gravitational Mass Allocation:** One of Break's main superhuman abilities is to become virtually immovable at will as long as she is in contact with the ground. She does this by bonding herself to the earth beneath her by force of will, which in effect created a mono-directional increase of gravity beneath her. With focus this ability renders her completely immovable to any external force.

**Telekinesis:** Ability to psionically manipulate and control the physical aspects of reality. She can also move and levitate other people. While she can move objects from a distance and fly as other telekinetics do, she has shown little inclination to do either in combat situations. She can also create telekinetic shields of various sizes and strengths. Her telekinesis is also much stronger now than it was before. Brake at first seemed to find that using her telekinesis in forceful ways was easier than in delicate ways (i.e. shattering a brick wall proving easier than levitating a pencil across a room).

* **Force Fields:** Brake can create a telekinetic shield of all sizes to deflect/decelerate incoming attacks.[122]
* **Telekinetic Invisibility:** Brake has been shown to be capable of using her telekinesis to render herself invisible by modifying her molecular structure.
* **Telekinetic Weapons:** Brake, since before showed great versatility over her telekinesis, which she uses to construct psionic weapons that damage a target either physically, mentally or both at some point. She showed skill in using creating multiple types of psionic weapons that differ in size, length, and power which she uses in combat. She has even been just using her raw psi-energy for energy blasts.
	+ **Telekinetic Sword:** Brake can manifest a telekinetic sword composed of raw psi-energy at will, which at its lowest intensity, functions to disrupt neural pathways and at its highest level, her swords can slice an armored opponent and cut through the armor, but leave the attacker physically unharmed. She can also use her swords to shatter telepathic power-inhibitors imposed on others. Brake's telekinetic manifestations produce visible radiance in the physical world. Thus, she can use her psychic sword as a makeshift light source in areas of darkness. Her telekinetic sword is strong enough to harm other beings more powerful than herself.
	+ **Telekinetic Bow and Arrow:** Brake has the ability to create a bow and arrow made of telekinetic energy that can pierce through armor or damage the target mentally or physically on contact.
	+ **Telekinetic Claws:** As an extension of her psionic constructs she is able to create claws made of pure psionic energy which can affect the target physically, and also to slice through armor.
* **Telekinetically Enhanced Condition:** She can use her telekinesis to enhance her speed, strength, agility, and other fighting skills to superhuman levels. When used upon her strength in particular this is pushed even beyond its already substantial limits.
* **Flight:** Brake can personalize her TK in such a way that she's able to levitate and propel herself through the air at variable speeds.

**Telepathy:** She possesses mental powers to affect and manipulate the minds of other sentient beings. Brake can read minds and communicate mentally with others over long distances. When she telepathically communicates with another person over a distance, that person often perceives her presence as a butterfly-like image bearing large eyes on its wings.

* **Psionic Knife:** Described as "the focused totality of her psychic powers," by intensely channeling and focusing her psionic powers to her hands to create “psychic blades”, razor-sharp edges of pure mental energy which are said to be the ultimate physical manifestation of her powers which she plunges into the minds of her targets directly. She often uses them to disrupt the neurons of her foes by driving the glowing "blade" of mental energy into their skulls. It is able to kill.
* **Astral Projection"** Can project her astral form from her body onto astral planes or the physical plane. In the astral plane, she can mentally create psionic objects and manipulate the aspects of her environment.
* **Absorb Information:** The ability to quickly process and store information, by mental transference. This may be either absorbed from a target or downloaded into new ones.
* **Psionic Shadow:** She is able to mask her presence from others. Her abilities can go undetected and are very difficult to track, even by very powerful telepaths such as Shadow King. She can extend these defenses to others around her as well.
* **Telepathic Illusions:** She has the ability to create illusions to make herself seem to be invisible, look like someone else, or make others experience events that are not truly happening.
* **Mind Control:** Capable of controlling the minds of others.
* **Telepathic Detection:** She can scan large areas and detect threats in her vicinity. She can also detect the psyches of the inhabitants of a city to learn of their condition.
* **Mental Paralysis:** Ability to induce temporary mental or physical paralysis
* **Mental Amnesia:** Can erase any awareness of particular memories or cause total amnesia.
* **Telepathic Tracking:** Enhanced psionic senses enable her to track other sentient beings by their unique psionic emanations (thought patterns contained in the psionic portion of the spectrum) especially if they pose a threat to her well-being in her immediate vicinity.
* **Psionic Blasts:** Can project psionic force bolts which have no physical effects, but which can affect a victim's mind so as to cause the victim pain, unconsciousness, or even death.
* **Psionic Immunity:** Brake has been shown to have an immunity to certain psionic attacks such as mind reading and illusions.
* **Precognition:** Psylocke occasionally has precognitive dreams.

**Reality Anchoring:** Following her mother being altered at a quantum level, this ability has been inherited making her more resilient to the multiversal entities such as The First Fallen. The changing of her personal being gave her immunity to magic, psionics, and alterations to the space-time continuum as well as imperceptibility by similarly empowered beings.

**Otherworld Portal Creation:** A ability intrinsic to inhabitants of Otherworld and Brake herself, with the effort she is capable of manifesting a Psionic gateway that allows her travel between the planes of Otherworld and the Material.

### Weaknesses

* Projected energy attacks have been seen to penetrate her skin.

* Brake's eyes and the interior of her ears, mouth, and nose are also vulnerable to injury.

* The downside of her psychic powers is the strength of her telepathic and telekinetic powers depend on how much she is using the other. Using two powers at once makes it hard for her to focus and lowers their level of power. For instance, if she is using her telekinesis, her telepathy is limited to only reading and broadcasting thoughts and, at the time, she is unable to utilize her other telepathic skills.

## Skills

**Master Martial Artist:** Brake has been classified as a master martial artist, though the specific fighting arts she has mastered have never been revealed. Presumably, as a ninja, she is skilled in various Ninjutsu techniques such as Taijutsu and Kenpo. Even though she is known as a ninja and worked as one, her fighting skills and techniques far surpass those of the average. Brake has also received additional training from various denizens of Avalon. Brake is also very well versed in the use of all Ninja weapons, stealth methods, silent movement, infiltration, concealment, escape & evasion, covert methods, Ninja espionage, and Ninja acrobatics.

**Master Telepathic Combatant:** As a telepath, Brake takes advantage of her powers in a fight by reading her opponent's' movements seconds before they make them, giving her the opportunity to counter-attack faster, and she can also use her telepathy to mask her presence from other people, humans and super-humans alike. She also creates telepathic illusions to distract her enemies while fighting them and as a ninja, she uses her psychic knife to incapacitate her opponents without killing them, though she has fewer inhibitions about doing so and will if necessary.

**Trained pilot:** Brake is an expert pilot of many fixed-wing aircraft, showing an innate talent in the art and able to intuitively pick up new models quickly. She has also expanded her telekinetic abilities to give them a greater sense of the craft and control.

**Advanced Telekinetic Combatant:** As a telekinetic, she often uses her powers to augment her strength and speed, which made her fighting skills so strong that she was able to match and even outmatch other superhumanly superior challengers.

## Equipment

**Captain Britain Costume:** Brake Captain Britain costume would bestow a further enhancement to her physical abilities as well as numerous other enhancements on top of the normal protection provided. However such has been stored securely as donning such would constitute acceptance of her position to the Legacy.

**Ninja Weaponry:** Brake currently carries her mother's katana Shurayuki. She also holds additional blades as well as other ninja tools, these can be charged with her telekinetic abilities at which point they glow purple.
