PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES

Body structure: Slightly rounded, but most of it in just the right places.

POWERS AND ABILITIES:

Strength level: Average.
Known superhuman powers: Henna has the ability to make herself fully and partially invisible, by somehow letting light that normally would reflect off her pass right through her, rendering her undetectable by the human eye. This also applies to the clothes that were in the water with her and bathed in the same mysterious energy, and she can control their transparency just as well as her own. As she can become partially invisible, Henna can also manipulate different layers of her body to make certain portions of her body transparent, which can be quite a frightening sight. For example, she can make everything except her skeleton transparent, and scare criminals on the run. However, this is a rarely used ability, as Henna is slightly disgusted and frightened by it. As her ability is based around manipulation of her own molecules and "phasing" through light rays, Henna is almost fully invisible, not only to the naked eye, but also for several scientific methods, such as infrared cameras. Her "transparency" has also made her fully immune to radiation poisoning, and lightbased weaponry passes right through her.
Weaknesses: Henna can make her own body and the clothes that were affected by the same accident invisible. She can only make other objects invisible with great difficulty, as she needs time to adapt to new circumstances, which can be used as an advantage by her opponents, who could for example douse her in flour to make her visible. She can extend the field for small extra layers, but since such attacks can take her by suprise, those are very vulnerable moments before she adapts to it. Also, she can not pass through solid matter (rocks, metal etc.) with the same phasing ability that grants her her invisibility. Another unfortunate side effect of her phasing ability is a logical one... Depending on her level of invisibility, the blinder she gets. This is due to visible light passing right through her optical nerve rather than bouncing off it. She has managed to deduce a way to work around it by making her eyes only opaque, leaving them barely noticeable, but not completely invisible for anyone with an observant eye.
Abilities/Special skills: Artistic skills, skilled with a camera and has a good ear for music. Has also developed some skills in streetfighting as she knows fully that she can't always rely on her powers, given that invisibility can be pretty useless in some situations.
Weapons: No special weapons.
Equipment: No special equipment.

BIO

Personality: Henna is an optimist that's happy generally most of the time, and always helpful to others, almost unable to say no to a call for help. Right now, however, she is in a very bad mood due to her hatred of the 2DF uniform's colours. She is trying her best to supress her bad mood, so do not tease her for your own sake. She will not kill, but it will be quite a painful pounding for you anyway.
Personal interests: Music, art, photography.
History: One year ago, Henna Pakkas was enjoying a swim in a lake, changing into her swimsuit and leaving her casual clothes behind on the beach. However, her brother Matti and her close friend Jussi were a pair of royal pranksters that enjoyed teasing her, and dumped all of her clothes into the lake.

Henna, of course, wasn't too happy about it, and stormed out of the water, towards her "brothers" who quickly made their escape. Before she could gather her now soaked clothes, she found that some of her clothes were seemingly floating in mid-air.

Upon a closer inspection, Henna found that her clothes we're not actually floating, but rather resting on something invisible to the human eye, floating a few feet above the surface. Henna, bewildered by this discovery, felt around with her hands, her curiousity leading her fingers towards a badly insulated electric panel, and the world went black as a new form of energy never before present, at least on the face of the Earth, coarsed through her body and throughout the surrounding water...

Henna woke up later, at the shore, with a splintering pain in her head, which only subsided as she took a few short breaths. When she opened her eyes, she was startled and scared witless when she looked upon her own hands, and found that she could see right through to the bones.

Henna, disgusted and frightened by the situation, closed her eyes and wished that it would all go away. When she finally dared to open her eyes, she found that her body had returned to normal.

Confused and slightly amazed, she fetched her clothes, at the same time thinking about how her flesh had become transparent for a few seconds... And the next thing she knew, the piece of clothing she held in her hand had become invisible! Through concentration, she found that she could alter the transparency of the clothes that had been in the water with her, as well as realizing that she now had the ability to turn invisible at will.

Like most young people who adored comic books, and by some unexplained means had acquired amazing powers, it wasn't long before Henna donned a disguise to accompany her newfound ability, and the country of Finland gained a new protector... the young heroine Opacity.

Trivia: Virtus's first love, and nowadays close friend. I guess that makes her somewhat of a legend alone. XD
