Joining as Jade Harley!

[Jade Harley]

Character name: Jade Harley.

Character source: Homestuck (Webcomic.)

Character history: Jade Harley’s story begins with her relative isolation on a volcanic island in the Pacific Ocean. Her taxidermied grandfather (a Harley family tradition) stood in her living room and her dog Becquerel was her only companion. Her house was a very tall, sepulchral tower filled with loads of high-tech gadgetry, including transportalizers and a garden atrium. She communicated with her three friends John Egbert, Dave Strider, and Rose Lalonde over the internet, using a chat program called Pesterchum.

One day, the four friends played a video game called SBURB, which had world-altering consequences. The Game destroyed their Earth with meteors as the children entered the Game (capitalization totally intended.) Through a series of zany events and repeated time shenanigans, Jade Harley was shown to be very plucky, compassionate, and quick-witted, although a bit hot-headed and baffled by emotional outbursts. This can be attributed to her virtual seclusion for much of her life. Also, she was an excellent markswoman, so this aided her in defeating game-generated enemies.

In the game, however, it was up to Jade to help in the creation of a new universe through her frog breeding duties as a Hero of Space. Her planet, LOFAF(the Land of Frost and Frogs), was equipped with a Forge for this purpose. Her denizen Echidna spoke to Jade about moving on to a new game session as the one they are in was doomed to fail, and Jade agreed to carry all of the planets(her own and her friends’) to the new session.

She took a great deal of initiative in leading her friends through the Game, even interacting heavily with another session’s players for advice and still attempting to carry out her frog breeding mission. However, this was all for naught, and Jade was killed by a shaving cream bomb.

Before Jade died, she had created a sprite, or an entity with a ghost-like wisp of a tail that is privy to a bucket load of knowledge on the Game and their corresponding player’s mission/purpose. Her sprite, Jadesprite, was a combination of her dead dream self and her pet dog Becquerel(a First Guardian with extraordinary capabilities such as omnipotence and the ability to ‘fetch’ bullets, among other more Space-oriented powers.) This autonomous sprite proceeded to throw a massive tantrum at having been resurrected and left to go mope about the Battlefield, much to Jade’s chagrin.

During [S] Cascade, Jade Harley ascended to god-tier on the Battlefield after having been placed upon her Quest Bed by Jack Noir. She merged with Jadesprite, thus becoming part dog and gaining dog ears and Becquerel’s First Guardian omnipotence to boot. She became the Witch of Space, with the abilities of matter and spatial manipulation, teleportation, flight, and trans-universal travel capabilities.

With the knowledge fresh in her mind that she must travel across the Yellow Yard to a new game session, Jade boarded a Prospitian Battleship with John Egbert and Davesprite, whom Jadesprite had met on the Battlefield while still independent of Jade. She shrank down the planets of their session to a smaller size and broke through the Fourth Wall, hurtling the battleship across the Yellow Yard towards the new game session with her Space powers.

Shortly after the events of [S] Cascade, while Jade Harley and her ectobiological brother John Egbert are on their three-year journey across the Yellow Yard aboard the Prospitian Battleship that Jade shrank down with her Space abilities, Jade minimized down John and Davesprite so that they could visit LOWAS(the Land of Wind and Shade, John’s planet).

John’s denizen, Typheus, blew the planet up in a plume of smoke, effectively killing John and Davesprite. Jade was mostly left by herself on the ship and sank into a deep depression from lonesomeness during the remainder of her journey. In the meantime, she became skilled with all different weaponkinds of Strife Specibi. Only, that journey didn’t get a chance to finish, as Jade was suddenly plucked from her universe and placed in the Omniverse.

Upon her arrival in the Nexus, Jade’s abilities should have been tampered down quite a bit. She will essentially have to re-learn most of her god-tier abilities, or at least several approximately equivalent ones, according the the rules of the Omniverse, and as a manipulator of Space it will most likely be difficult to adjust to the new universe’s limitations.

Going still where she stands, Jade squares her shoulders and raises an arm in preparation for the attack. She gazes down the length of her arm and her eyes narrow as if she is looking through the cross-hairs of a gun. Her fingers contour into a finger-gun, wild green sparks playing about them and giving off static-y sizzling sounds for five seconds; a quarter of the amount of time it takes to load a flintlock pistol. Once Jade gives the verbal signal “Bang!” a blast of green lightning traveling at the speed of a bullet will shoot out from her fingertip, her hand will recoil as if clutched around an imperceptible firearm, and the green electrical energy will give her opponent a nasty shock, ideally striking them in the chest-range(non-lethal for most). The level of nasty depends on the durability of the character on the receiving end, but the after-effects would be more along the lines of ‘light-toasted’ rather than ‘charred’, typically, and will serve to shock a foe or at the very least cause them to stagger. The shot of lightning can go perhaps a mile, but the energy will deplete the further the distance, so it would be best if used in close range (three to five paces) to stun less resilient foes for approximately ten seconds(causing muscle spasms, bone aches, intense prickling across the skin, etc.). This move would barely be able to knock a tin can off of a fence row from a mile away, and would feel like a minor shock from static electricity at that distance.

I confirm that I have read and agreed to the Rules of Conduct!

(I hope this application is up to snuff! This site is very interesting and I would love to become a part of it, although I must warn you that I can be a bit long-winded.)
