'''Effervescent''' is a hero working for [[Foresight]] in [[the City]].

==Personality==
Effervescent comes off as pretty stand-offish to [[Victoria]], on one occasion refusing to shake her hand.{{Ref|[[Anelace]] put out his hand to shake.  I shook it.  Effervescent didn’t offer me anything, and I didn’t push.|#Black 13.5}} Further she keeps a cool head in situations where other people start sreaming their head off.{{Ref|The blister expanded, then unfurled, unzipped.  A hundred pounds of flesh became a hundred pounds of pencil-thin tendril.  Tendrils reached out and seized Mr. Bough.<br/><br/>“He’s panicking,” Effervescent reported, an almost ludicrous comment, given the scene.  Already, Sveta was screaming, in warning and alarm, her every instinct failing her.  Victoria kicked in the glass door to the lab, her backup following her in.|#Interlude 13.z}}

She has a substance abuse issue and took steps to make sure she wasn't in a situation it could flare up.{{Ref|name=II14.2}}

==Abilities and Powers==
Effervescent could manipulate emotions, specializing in incapacitating people.{{Ref|name=F2.1|Effervescent was an emotion manipulator with an emphasis on stunning people.<br/>[...]<br/>“I can’t get a consistent read on you emotionally,” Effervescent said.  “It’s repressed.”<br/><br/>“My long-time boyfriend was an emotion manipulator.  He had a hard time getting a read on me too,” I said.<br/><br/>“I’m better than most when it comes to getting reads,” Effervescent said.  “No offense, but it’s what isn’t as repressed that concerns me.”<br/><br/>“Enough you’d say no,” Countenance said.<br/><br/>Effervescent nodded.|#Flare 2.1}} Like [[Gallant]] and [[The Heartbroken]] she could read emotions, able to do crowds of people and very far away.

She can read people's emotions en masse and at significant range being trusted with patrolling at the [[Portal]]s.{{Ref|I indicated [Effervescent and Relay].  “I get the impression they’re communicating something to you, and you sound like you’re winding up to tell me no.  Both took some shifts at the portals, watching the refugees as they came in to make sure there was no trouble, which makes me think they’re thinkers, they read people, and they’re reading me.”|#Flare 2.1}} she was refined to the point she could also act as lie detector.{{Ref|name=II13.z}}

Effervescent was unable to get a consistent read on [[Victoria]]{{Ref|name=F2.1}} or [[Mr. Drowsing]],<ref>“Effervescent can’t get a good read on Mr. Drowsing and it feels more like a bad idea.” - [[Interlude 13.z]]</ref> likely due to their own master powers. This likely means she would have issues with other Emotional manipulators as well.

==History==
===Background===
===Early-[[Ward]]===
Effervescent is first introduced during [[Victoria Dallon]]'s interview with [[Foresight]]. There, Effervescent comments how, while better than most when it comes to getting a read on people, they are unable to get a consistent read on Victoria. She surmises it might be due to her emotion manipulating powers. This uncertainty is a contributing factor to them voting 'no' to offer her a space on their team.

===Post-[[Assault on the Time Bubbles|Time Bubble Pop]]===
Met with [[Victoria]] and [[Tattletale]], and discussed possible recruitment interference in regards to [[Ratcatcher]] and [[Big Picture]].

Effervescent moved into [[The Wardens]] Bunker on semi-permanent basis, since she was not able to maintain conspiracy due to personal reasons.{{Ref |name=II14.2|There were capes who could, but who were sitting this one out, because they had other shit going on, or because the stress of it was too much. Effervescent was one, and she’d been open about the reasons why: she had a substance abuse problem and acting like she’d been pushed to her limit put her at the cusp of a slippery slope.|#Breaking 14.2}} She assisted in arresting [[Orchard]] and Victoria's later dealings with [[Mr. Bough]].{{Ref|name=II13.z|Mr. Bough drew on the wall of his cell in erasable marker.  “It’s like a zipper.  With this, we can create a general framework, outline proportions, and from there we add mass, fill it in.  Inside-out, bone, organ, muscle, nervous tissue, skin.  It’s possible this will require multiple procedures over weeks.”<br/><br/>“Misleading,” Effervescent murmured.<br/><br/>“What?” Mr. Bough asked.  “You were there when they attacked us.”<br/><br/>“Arrested you.  For very good reason,” Effervescent said.  “You’re fibbing about the weeks.”<br/><br/>“It may require multiple procedures.”<br/><br/>“That’s true,” Effervescent said.<br/><br/>“Spanning days or weeks.”<br/><br/>“Less true.”<br/>[...]<br/>“A couple of days or sessions?” Victoria asked.<br/><br/>“More likely.”<br/><br/>“There we go,” Effervescent said.<br/>[...]<br/>“I feel like we glossed over the surgery and timetable,” Victoria said.  “Can we walk it back a bit?  Was that glossing intentional?”<br/><br/>“No,” Mr. Bough said.<br/><br/>“I don’t get the weird manipulation feeling from that response,” Effervescent said.<br/><br/>“Thank you,” Victoria said.|#Interlude 13.z}}

She was present during the assembly of the second team aiming for [[Teacher]]'s stronghold, confirming the monumental task of countering him.{{Ref|“How’s that done for you so far?  As far as I can tell, he’s winning.” [says Imp]<br/>[...]<br/>“The precogs say this gives us our best odds,” Cinereal said.  “And they’ve consistently said that.  There’s no sign that he’s manipulated them or their results.”<br/><br/>“He’s tough,” Effervescent said.  One of the remaining core members of Foresight.<br/><br/>“Yes, he’s tough,” Cinereal said.|#Dying 15.1}}

==Trivia==
*Effervescent derives from a latin root that means boiling up, this is why it evolved as a description for [[wikipedia:carbonated water|carbonated water]] and various sodas.
** Incongruously, given the her personality it is also used to describe someone who is vivacious and enthusiastic.
**It works perfectly as a description of emotions bubbling up however.
