Name: Melody Nixon, commonly just Nix. (And of no relation to the president...)

Alias: Shard

Description: Melody is slightly below average height, just a hair over five feet.

Background: Melody was born as a poor child. She lived in the gutters and alleys of the Patrick, stealing food and other supplies merely to stay alive. However, as she grew, she developed a minor case of kleptomania, where stealing became more about the thrill than survival. Her crimes escalated until she was cat-burglar-ing her way through jewelry stores. Her usual process was to steal the jewels, enjoy them for a few days, then quietly leave them on the back porch of the robbed store, none the worse for wear. Unlike many thieves, she never stole for personal gain.

But, like many thieves, she was eventually caught and sentenced to several months in Juvenile, dozens of hours of community service, and personal counseling. An extremely influential counselor named Marie took the young delinquent under her wing, showing her that there were other, legal ways to find the rush she sought. Acrobatics, for example, or martial arts. Melody determined to seek a higher, or at least legitimate, purpose in her life.

This massive change of direction caused her metagene to manifest. Her love of gems developed into the ability to, at least temporarily, create them out of thin air, dark yet glowing constructs of deep purple crystal. Now, she uses her ability as a tool, protecting the innocent, especially the young, from those who would drive the weak into poverty: Thieves, Racketeers, etc.

Skills and abilities: Melody has some capability at hand-to-hand fighting, as well as a well trained acrobatic ability. She much prefers, however, staying quiet and to the shadows until the time to strike. She also has a natural affinity for the back alleys and gutters of large cities, having spent her entire life there.
Her ability consists of forming energy constructs of a dark purple crystalline substance, that can be either round/blunt, or sharp as a diamond.

Important Themes and Notes: Nix is, first and foremost, a reformed criminal. She has devoted her time to protecting those around her from reliving her past. Especially, she will stick her neck out to protect children, poor and weak people, etc.

Continuity: No

To become Continuity: Open to discussion.
