Jailer Black

## Appearance

### *Physical Description*

Nat is slender with an average figure. She's actually a bit boyish and depressed looking, though. There are people that keep telling her that if she tried a bit more, she'd be "*really pretty*" but Nat jsut doesn't believe them.

She has pale skin and possesses laurel green eyes. She often has dark shadows beneath her eyes and she dyes hair jet-black. Her hair is long, wavy, and comes down about 3 and a half inches past her shoulders. She doesn't style it often and it has a sort of "*I've given up on everything*" kind of look because of how messy it is.

### *Civilian Clothing*

Nat learns into the dark and depressing look by wearing things like oversized black hoodies and dark coloured sweatpants, black fingerless gloves, and black boots.

### *Hero Costume*

Jailer Black is thought of as the scariest member of The Clan. This is thanks to her brother designing her costume to make her appear menacing. It consists of a short, black, plague doctor inspired face mask that looks more like a small bird's beak paired with a hooded black cloak. Underneath the cloak, Nat wears a pitch black jumpsuit with slightly oversized combat boots and black, armoured, gauntlet-style gloves. She even carriesa scythe!

## Personality

### *Goals*

* Make the criminals of **Cornerstone City** fear her
* Finish high school

### *Character Traits*

Nat has a depressing air around her. Perhaps it stems from her depression or moybe it's drawn from the vibe her style gives off but no onw is really sure. Nat has been depressed since the death of her uncle, **Rex**. Since then, more have died each year. Her **Uncle Jed**, her cousin, **Bronwyn**, and her mom. Each death sent her deeper and deeper into a depressed state. She doesn't like to talk to many people and prefers to be left alon. She's a loner who definitely hates it when people try to interfere with anything she's doing.

As Jailer Black, the air around Nat seems to change. She gives off this scary aura theat seems to make criminals cower in fear. She's not above nearly killing a criminal to get her point across and dreams of having people fear the name "Jailer Black."

## History

### *Family History*

The year was 1632, and the Lang Family lived in a small village in the German countryside. In their village, there was an old hag who threatened everyone that passed by her cottage. She was a mean and crass old woman, and ugly to boot. Then, one day as Ulrich Lang passed by the hag's cottage, he saw the hag performing witchcraft. Like a good civilian, he went and reported her to the local witch hunters.

They found her in the middle of oher witchcraft and arrested her. Out of spite and the need for revenge, the hag spat out a curse upon the Lang family and all its generations after with her dying breaths. Ulrich feared her curse and what it may do. He was lucky, in a sense, that the cursed affliction was almost immediate. When he arrived home, his wife and children possessed devil-given powers! For the safety of his family, he had them pack their things and they departed to a city called Berlin. There, they made a life for themselves without anybody knowing of the hag's curse.

### *Early Life*

Centuries later, cursed powers appeared in the possession of the Lang Siblings, who lived in America. Their father, Richard Lang, was the grandson of **Anzo Lang**, who came to America from Germany before the world wars.

Because of the curse, each of the Lang Siblings experienced an awakening of their powers. Nat's powers had an air of darkness surrounding them.

### *Origins*

There was only one thing her brother had to say to convince her to join The Clan: "Do you want to be feared?" Her answer was yes. She wanted to put the menacing air surrounding her powers to good use and what better use was there than making criminals fear her so much they stop committing crime. She'd always been the grim type and if the persona fits...

On her first patrol with her entire family she ended up doing realtively little. The twins stopped 2 muggers & a burglar, her oldest sister stopped a burglar, her little sister & her older sister, Jay, caughter another mugger, and her dad used his body to stop an out of control car. She didn't do much more than just stand there... **menacingly**.

## Skills and Abilities

### *Powers*

#### **Imprisonment Energy Manipulation**

Her powers manifest as a thick, pitch black smoke despite being energy. It doesn't give off any light and it feels cold when one touches it. Her base abilities allow her to project energy attacks, generate energy barriers, and create energy constructs.

### *Sub-Powers*

#### **Immobilization**

Her imprisonment energy has special properties that prevent its target from moving. With this sub-power, Nat can force a person or object to remain in a singular spot. Even someone as strong as her dad can't break free of her imprisonment energy.

#### **Compression**

Jailer Black can use her imprisonment energy to apply ever-increasing pressure upon a target. She can use this tactic to break bones, prevent movement, or crush a traget to death.

#### **Sealing**

Nat can use her imprisonment energy to seal a target inside a pocket dimension created by the darkness that spawns from her inner darkness. In this pocket dimension, time doesn't pass, ther is no heat or air, it is an endless expanse of smoky darkness that would drive even the most stable person to complete madness. She even possesses the ability to enter & exit this dimension at will and can release anything she's sealed inside.

#### **Dark Aura**

Jailer Black can infuse herself with her own powers. This creates an aura around her which makes her more intimidating, striking pure, pverwhelming terror into the hearts of those who look her in the eyes.vHer aura even terrifies technology, which means that video recordings see nothing more than a terrifying smoky, shadowy figure that fills the view of the footage with terror.

### *Skills*

#### **Scythe Combat Proficiency**

After her brother got her a scythe to go along with her costume, Nat made an effort to learn how to properly use the weapon. She's now quite proficient at wielding a scythe.

## Weaknesses

### **Her Older Siblings**

For some odd reason, Nat cannot seal Lucy, Jon, Jay in her pocket dimension. Her powers also don't affect them and they're powers can easily overcome hers.

## Equipment

### **Stainless Steel Scythe**

Nat wields a scythe with a 3.5ft snath and a 2ft blade. The snath is pitch black and the blade is metallic and silvery.

### **Plague Mask**

She has a small black plague mask styled similarly to a small bird's beak. This helps to conceal her identity.

### **Cellphone & Earbuds**

This set up utilizes a special, military-grade, private connection to stay in touch with The Clan or the members of Triptych. The encryption on the chat room was designed by Jon, Jay, and their friend in the military, **Andrew**. Even the government's top white hats wouldn't be able to break through the chat room's/ group call's encrypted security!
