Iris Gyness

## Appearance

Iris stands at 5'7" and weighing 135 pounds, her figure slim at the top while more curvy around the bottom. Her skin is pale with warm golden undertones. One of her most defining features are the piercing nature of her hooded blue eyes. Iris' hair falls in long, voluminous blonde waves around her body, though it can be found tied up most commonly when she is nervous or trying to focus.Typically she can be found wearing plain T-shirts in shorts in solid colours.

## Personality

Iris has a lot of power but doesn’t make herself seem better than anyone else. Loud spoken and witty with people she likes, while authoritative and stone cold with people that she doesn’t. Is generally an emotional person and can be provoked if certain subjects are brought up. Is always eager to help people in need and wishes she could, though that isn’t always the case. A shortcoming of hers is that she places burdens and guilt on herself when she isn’t around for something or when something goes wrong.

## Backstory

With her father Alexander’s power and full-blooded god status, he became the captain of the Supernatural Abilities Unit (SAU) of the government. Because of this and spending a lot of time with her divine family, Iris was taught how to fight and control her powers from a young age. When she was around 7, her father had brought a friend and his family over to their house, along with their son Tim. Iris would grow up alongside this boy and their friend Peter and would be with him through everything. All the tragedy and success, everything. By the time the two of them were 16, they began dating. When Iris was around 19 and studying in school to be a mechanical engineer, it seemed like she would be destined to join the SAU. That is until she found out about Robin and the Titans. Against her father’s claims that superheroes went against the government and his organization, Iris joined the Titans as Electricia and fought crime while in school. She fully joined them by the age of 26 and it wouldn’t be till she was 28 that the tower would be built. She was one of the first people Tim told about the tower. The two of them would become leaders of the group, while Iris would make suits and in some cases, metal extremities for her teammates and finance, the same boy that was invited to her house decades before.

## Powers and Abilities

Lightning magic inherited to her by her father and their branch of gods. She has the ability to shape the magic energy into weapons and object, most notably a sword and platforms to run on throughout the city. Just as lightning is faster seen than thunder heard, Iris is fast enough to sneak around without being detected. She also has an ultimate goddess form that depicts what she looks like before the age of five when the gods in her family gave her her human form that is now her base. The form has blue skin with purple freckles all over, along with bright red hair and yellow eyes. It is an interesting look, to say the least. However, while the form is Iris at her most powerful, she has not yet learned to fully control it and prefers to not use it in fights.
