1. Hero. I tried to picture you as a villain and there was epic fail. If it's any consolation you're a badass underground counterculture type hero.
2. Codename: Orphea
3. An ability to manipulate and amplify sound waves, specially ones created by music; increased sensitivity to and awareness of sounds-- for instance, you would be able to find your way through a blackened room by echolocation.
4. The music industry *cackles* and much of authority figures in general.
5. No actual person as your sidekick, no, but you do have a bitchin' guitar.
6. You were formerly a musical artist on the feminist-indie end of things, your own singer/songwriter act, blah blah blah. One night while playing to a packed nightclub, a strange energy traveled from the mike to you as you reached for it. You felt dizzy and lightheaded but dismissed it until you struck a chord on your guitar-- and broke every bit of glass in the place. Since then you've been learning how to channel and control your powerz.
7. Army boots, jeans, tank top. Occasionally you add a leather trench and fedora to the ensemble.
8. Too-loud sounds can overload your perception and cause blackouts.
