Katelyn "Kate" Templeton is a main character of the Traitor franchise and serves as the main protagonist of the Finale arc. She is the girlfriend of Michael Andrel, the main protagonist of Ink Escapists. She is the daughter of Connor Templeton, the man mostly responsible for the creation/rebirth of Ink Max.

## Appearance

Kate is a dark-skinned girl with thick, flowing hair stretching down to the middle of her back. She has an overly muscular build, with visible tone and a sharp six-pack. An interesting feature is her eyes, which have different colored irises (One half is blue and the other is purple). In ***Ink Escapists***, she wears a light blue t-shirt and dark jeans. In ***Finale***, she wears a black flapper blouse with a yellow bowtie and gloves sporting 3 darts. Upon regaining her human form, she wears a black Re-Nylon bandeau top and grey Jim shorts and combat boots.

In her different forms, her appearance alters.

In her substance/jello form, her entire body takes on a translucent red color that's fairly see-through. Her body appears fully nude but zero genitalia is seen on it.

Upon activating Beast Kate, her most powerful form yet, Kate once more retains a nude appearance, due to her larger size. Like her gel form, no genitalia are seen. Unlike her previously mentioned form, Kate is full flesh and blood in this one, now being a light blue with lighter blue veins on her arms and neck. Ink runs up from her hands and a jagged swirl coats the backs of her hands also. A blue-ish/white hue highlights her also. Finally, her hair is now far longer and at times can drag along the floor behind her.

## Personality

Kate acts out as an old soul of sorts. She normally lies a stoic personality, not necessarily showing emotions much. Thanks to teachings from Mike, she is able to takes heavy blows to her self-esteem that would shatter anyone else. But this doesn't mean she's invincible. Many times, she has been shown to break down and cry from pressure, PTSD or fear (I.E: When Jake furiously blamed himself for her and Mike getting captured by Ink Max, which made Kate become afraid of him, believing he was angry at her). When she obtains the Eldritch Power, her stature and fears become limited, where she refuses to sprout her emotions in front of enemies, as she believes they are a tool against her.

At younger ages (prior to meeting Mike), Kate was more timid and a slow learner, resulting in her being bullied majorly by several people. She still carries the trauma with her but attempts to bury it deep so nobody sees it come out at all.

## Abilities

### Teleportation

Kate is capable of teleporting herself to and from anywhere she deems fit.

### Psychic Reading

Through meditation and/or sleep, Kate can connect psychically with certain things such as Ink Max and strong presceneses of darkness.

### Electricity Punch/Charges

With enough force, Kate can send off a big pulse of electricity from her bodies electric currents. This is her most common attack method.

### Substance Mutation/Transformation

Kate is capable of transforming her body into a gelatin-like substance (pictured above). With this form, she can expand her form and grow it (It's documented that she can get it bigger than Ink Max's size).

She can also take a shapeless, blob-like form.

Water is what allows her form to grow automatically if need-be. She is also capable of absorbing enemies within her body due to it. At command, she can also dissolve encased enemies entirely, adding to her expanding form.

Despite these attributes, there are some downsides. Consuming too much water or dissolving too many organic things increases Kate's weight, which is enough is consumed, she could be incredibly overweight.

Extreme heat also is a problem for this ability, as Kate will explode due to it. However, this can be resolved quickly is water is nearby.

Attempting to transform with any clothing on will make the substance register any covered area of Kate as not apart of her body and will dissolve it, which in the process will kill Kate unless she's quick enough to heal herself. Ergo, to avoid situations like this, Kate must first strip nude before activating the ability.
