## Physical Description

### Bak Sun-hee: 1988 - 2006

Sun is the daughter and eldest child of Bak Kang-dae and his wife Mi-Cha. Sun has a younger brother, Bak Joong-ki. During her early childhood, Sun had a strong interest in the martial arts. Sun's mother faciliated that interest by finding Sun an impressive instructor. Unbeknownst to Sun or her mother, the mentor they found was a former member of the Safinat Dakhma (colloquially "League of Assassins") known as I'Ching, who was attempting to live under the radar. Though not seeking to be noticed, I'Ching recognized a certain potential so powerful in Sun that he felt it was his "duty" to train her for fear of what could happen if he did not.

Joining junior tournaments and fighting in other competitions, Sun won many awards. Her success made her mother happy, but never seemed to impress her father who seemed to focus all his attention and adoration on her younger brother Joong-ki, who rarely did anything of merit — other than being a male.

When Mi-cha fell ill to brain cancer, Sun was warned by her mother that she would have to protect her family once Mi-cha was gone. Tearfully, Sun promised that she would protect her father and brother. Shortly after this declaration, Mi-cha would succumb to her illness, leaving Sun devastated.

As a teen, Sun continued to advance in martial arts tournaments, winning almost all of them. She eventually coerced her father into attending a tournament, but when Kang-dae saw the ease and brutality at which she defeated her male opponents, Sun was banned from future competitions and told to focus on learning a "practical" trade. Though banned from tournaments, Sun was allowed to continue training with her instructor, I'Ching, as her father believed it was good for women to have "hobbies".

### Bak Sun-hee: 2006 - 2010

Sun would go on to attend New Seoul University, majoring in economics and business management. While attending university, Sun continued her training with I'Ching. Sun even entered some competitions.

### Bak Sun-hee: 2010 - 2013

Following her graduation with a master's degree in economics, Sun entered the family business of Bak Financial, quickly climbing up the ranks of the enterprise until she was Chief Financial Officer.

### Bak Sun-hee: 2013 - 2014

During the reign of the Reach, Sun began to notice some irregularities in the books. She began to monity these processes as she attempted to investigate the source. While this was happening, Sun also returned to competitions, this time fighting in underground mixed-martial arts fights for cash prizes rather than trophies and ribbons. The money Sun made allowed her to offset the missing funds from her family's company — at least enough to buy her time to further investigate.

### Bak Sun-hee: 2014 - 2015

Sun would eventually learn that the discrepancies were somehow connected to her brother Joong-ki. However, Sun continued to cover for her brother as she searched for more evidence before bringing the matter to her father. The bruises and cuts from fighting became increasingly more difficult to hide, leading to Sun's father taking notice of his daughter's return to competitive fighting and becoming disappointed.

### Bak Sun-hee: 2015

While in morning meditation, Sun would see an strange woman appear and disappear before her eyes. Following this, Sun would experience a number of other weird experiences — such as hallucinations of a chicken running across her desk or seeing a Corto Maltesian man replacing her reflection in the mirror. As this was going on, Sun uncovered the evidence she needed but realized that Joong-Ki would be going to prison — requiring Sun to sacrifice her own freedom to honor the promise she had made to her dying mother.

## Threat Assessment

### Resources

* **Psionic Metahuman Physiology:** Sun belongs to a sub-class of psychic known as a sensate.
	+ ***Astral Visitation:*** Sun can project a portion of her consciousness in the vicinity of another sensate (whether one belonging to her cluster or one with which she had has physical contact previously). This projection is turned to the senses of sensates.
	+ ***Combat Instincts:*** Sun has the ability to gain insight on her opponents by being in their presence, instinctually assessing if they are carrying weapons, if they intend to inflict harm, if they anticipate danger, or what their next move may be. Sun can also learn new martial arts techniques by seeing them performed or used against her.
	+ ***Sensory Empathy:*** Sun can share her senses, emotions, thoughts, and memories with other sensates — particularly those that belong to her sensate cluster.
	+ ***Supernatural Senses:*** Sun is able to see hear, and interact with beings on the astral plane — particularly sensates, but also ephemeral entities, and invisible spirits such as ghosts. She is also sensitive to intrinsic and psychic phenomena.
	+ ***Telepathic Sharing:*** Sun can share her knowledge, languages, skills, talents, and even her psychic abilities with sensates from her cluster (see Riley Blue, Will Gorski, Nomi Marks, Wolfgang Bogdanow, Kala Dandekar, Capheus Onyango, and Lito Rodriguez for a list of skills accessible to Sun) For the transfer of skills, talents, and psychic abilities, Sun must possess the receiving sensate or allow herself to be possessed by the projecting sensate while they are visiting.
* **Athletic:** Sun is extremely athletic, highly coordinated, and much stronger than most expect.
* **Economist:** Sun is a highly skilled economist and financial expert. Likewise, she is able to understand the operation and management of large international corporations.
* **Martial Artist:** Sun is a world-class martial artist, having mastered seven martial arts styles with techniques in joint-locks, strikes, grapples, ground tactics, and weapon techniques.
* **Meditation:** Sun regularly engages in meditative stretching and breathing exercises. Sun uses this to hone her focus and release her stress in a more constructive manner.
* **Wealth:** Though much of her funds were confiscated and accounts frozen, Sun has kept a good sum of money hidden on offshore accounts under her old fighting aliases.
* **Indomitable Willpower:** When she sets her mind on something, Sun is a force of nature. She is like an unstopable machine, not easily swayed to another course of action.

### Weaknesses

* **Burden Bearing:** When a clustermate is overwhelmed with intense pain, the excess pain may flood over the rest of the cluster, resulting in excruciating phantom pain.
* **Emotionally Suppressed:** Sun has difficulty expressing her emotions, having spent so much time trying to minimalize her temper and putting her own needs behind those of her father and brother. When put into situations requiring charm rather than intimidation.
* **Fugitive:** Sun is an escaped fugitive, living on the lam. She is being pursued by ARGUS and the Rhelasian National Police.
* **Jindo:** Sun cares more about her dog than her family.
* **Migraines:** Sun, like most psionics, suffers from severe migraines.
* **Vice — Wrath:** When Sun becomes angry, she will usually react violently — often smashing nearby objects. She can refrain from violence through meditation, but even that does not always work.
* **Vulnerability — Electricity:** Sun reacts poorly to electrical stimulation. Electric shock overstimulates the psycellium nervous system of most sensates and induces severe pain and seizures — often with violent coughing of blood and bloody noses.
