POWERS
Longevity:
Whenever Elsa wears her Bloodstone choker she ceases to age. When not wearing
the stone she ages at approximately a third of the rate of a normal human. She
uses the stone to slow her aging process down even further, but has no desire
to become truly immortal like her father. In practical terms, this mean she
biologically ages about one year per decade.
Durability:
The Bloodstone gem worn by her father left traces of itself even in his DNA,
which was passed down to his children. Elsa processes increased physical
strength, durability, speed, stamina, agility, reflexes, and senses, all
boosted to superhuman levels.
Reneration:
Elsa regains 5 Hit Points per hour. If wearing her Bloodstone choker, she can
even regenerate limbs or recover from seemingly mortal wounds (at the rate of 2
Hit Points per day).
Bloodstone:
Elsa owns a small fragment of the Hellfire Helix gemstone that was once
embedded in her father’s chest. However, unlike her father whose durability and
immortality derived solely from the gem, Elsa’s durability and longevity appear
to be natural and not dependent on the gem. However, when wearing the fragment (which
she has put in a choker that she wears around her neck) her healing powers are
increased and she temporarily ceases to age.
TALENTS
All forms of Combat, including
Marksmanship, Military and Business/Finance. Also extremely knowable on monster
lore and pertinent magical knowledge. She is fluent in many languages and can
read several languages considered dead, lost and/or occult.
BACKGROUND
Elsa is one of two known children of the he
formally immortal Ulysses Bloodstone, a prehistoric warrior who had discovered
an alien entity called the Hellfire Helix trapped inside a meteorite. The
Hellfire Helix summoned an alien being known as Ulluxy’l Kwan Tae Syn to help
it find a host but Ulysses battled Syn, and during the fight the Hellfire Helix
was smashed. A piece of it, known to history as the Bloodstone Gem, became
embedded in Ulysses’s chest granting him superhuman strength, durability and
immortality. Over the millennia, he used his powers to become the world’s most
renowned monster hunter and mercenary the world had ever seen.
It is not clear when Elsa or her brother were born, but it soon became apparent that she had inherited at least some of her father’s strength, agility and toughness without requiring that she wear the Bloodstone. Her father began her training literally in the cradle, where she learned how to strangle imps and slay small monsters with a broken plastic spoon. As she grew older,
her father’s training intensified and crossed the line many times into abuse,
though Elsa’s memories of this time are thought to be spotty with age and fragmented
by possible meddling by H.A.T.E.
After her father’s death, she retrieved a fragment
of the now destroyed Bloodstone Gem and placed it on a choker she sometimes
wears around her neck. Based out of Bloodstone manor, hidden somewhere in
England, she took over her father’s business, working as a mercenary
specializing in supernatural exterminations and monster attacks.
Elsa was the first the first one requited by
Monica Rambeau and Director Dick Anger into Nextwave.
