NPC #3: Lizard




Name: Francine "Frank" Rosa
Codename: Lizard
Age: 24
Classification: Stealth type
Birthdate: February 29
Birthplace: --




Personality & Physical Description:
Keeps her hair short in a boyish-style cut, sometimes smoothed down, sometime unruly with hints of silver strands. Hair color is black as she chooses to dye it that color, original hair color is silver. Eye color is light gray, almost transparent orbs. Has a translucent complexion. Body build is slender at five feet and nine inches tall.
Her regular clothing style are simple pants and blouses when working, changes to ripped and torn apparels and always in monochrome shades or dark colors, and she hates skirts, or she uses a specialized suit specifically designed for her to better enhance the use of her abilities when on field work.
She likes calm and order, so when stress hits her, she has an uncanny knack of cleaning her entire room from top to bottom and rearranging furniture. Her answer to boredom is to sleep it off, even if it is to sleep the entire day away. She's not one to show temper, but on the rare occasion she does, she always ends up depleting her energy 'cooling' down-- to her, getting angry is a waste of time. Sometimes, she has her moments of showing a good humor, but one can never be sure if she was joking or serious delivering the statement with minimal facial expression.
She particularly enjoys reading, whatever genre it may be, the title may range from children’s books to encyclopedias. Unfortunately, she forgets the contents as soon as she starts reading on another one.
Calm, aloof and observant, she mostly stays on one side and watch everything and everyone, but don't be fooled by her gentle demeanor as she's grouped together with the trio aptly nicknamed "The Terror, The Bully and The Prankster", she takes her duty in class with a firm hand. Outside class she's the big sister type, while on duty she's known to cause her students to flinch, stammer, sweat and jump in their seats for her strict curriculum, and when off duty she can be unpredictably reckless or fearless -- no one can tell from her actions. She has high tolerance for alcohol, nevertheless she hardly imbibes in too much drinking but still accompanies Dr. Enkil and her sister, Sword, whenever they go out. None has seen her drunk... yet. The one occasion she did get drunk, it was never obvious as she just sat in her place without a sound.
Very protective of her younger twin sister, knowing her other half bears guilt for what had become of her. And lastly, no matter the occasion, she always has a pouch of sweets with her wherever she goes.

History:
In Accelerated Human Records there are 7 known who have underwent Berserk mode -- 2 Accels and 5 Alters. Unfortunately 5 of them are now deceased from natural and unnatural reasons. She is the last remained Alter forcefully turned Berserker by experiment.
She would have been a normal teenager at the time of tragedy in one of her University's laboratories where a gas leak and science test combined together ignited and caused an explosion that demolished the building's ground floor. Several students passing nearby during that incident were caught in the impact of flying rubble. Before passing out she remembered seeing her sister, who was with her, changing. Glimpses of broken memories were all recollection of that incident: the bright fluorescent lights as she was wheeled somewhere, droning of voices, more lights, blurred vision of people in white, feeling cold, being powerless, helplessness...
The next thing she knew was coming to a nearly destroyed cold room with her sister being subdued. She retaliated by grabbing the nearest object and hurtling it towards her sister's attacker, only to realized after it embedded itself onto the wall that she had picked up the metal bed that was to be used by her if there hadn't been disturbances. Before the shock of what she did could fully register, she had began to convulse as her awakening to a forced accelerated state in berserk mode took an immediate toll on her body before she could fully adapt to it.
Waking up once more, she was now on a regular hospital bed with IV drips attached to her and a friend from University, Celis Enkil, seated next to her. Turned out that Celis Enkil, an upperclassman, was involved in a research on Accels and the possibility that regular humans with the potential to evolve can be turned into accelerators, labeled the Alters. She hadn't expected it would be someone she knew who was chosen to undergo such risky experiment, and especially one that she was never informed about.
Celis Enkil, overthrew those responsible for the experiment and took charge.
In order to keep her condition stable, she needed the regular check ups and prescriptions to keep her body and mentality balanced, she was offered all the services required to maintain an Alter form but in exchanged she was expected to obey orders from the higher ups pertaining to the use of her abilities, often partnered with Shade in these missions. It was a partnership where their abilities were well-matched and they were often called on to work together where it was supposedly impossible for the different classes to be in the same group without causing rifts.
Like her sister, she was transferred to HADES and became one of the instructors after graduation. She has a knack for intimidating her students and confusing their piece of minds. And she has a habit of sneaking up on people from whatever direction, sometimes listening to their conversation and sometimes just to surprise them.
Assigned as her Watcher is Dr. Celis Enkil, the one to monitor her condition and report in on any progress.

Family:
- Kurtis Rosa, twin sister

Special Abilities:
- shadow blending, she can mask her presence in shadows but is physically still there.
- wall crawling, by simply touching with her bare skin as with her hands and legs (hence the ripped pants or she simply takes off whatever footwear she has on)

- sweets, partial to chocolates and ice cream
- water, her ability to stick on surfaces is ineffective when she or the surface is wet

- frequent regeneration leaves her physically and mentally drained, especially with autotomy she's completely vulnerable as she has to keep complete concentration on the re-growth of 'severed limb'— an ability that won't work if she's unconscious
