'''Whirlygig''' is a member of [[the Merchants]].

==Personality==
[[Skidmark]] trusts her enough to carry the box containing the [[Cauldron vial]]s,<ref name="skidtalk">“Our contestants don’t seem to be too excited!” Skidmark shouted.  “Need an incentive?  Let me tell you cockgarglers what you stand to win!”<br/><br/>He snapped his fingers, and one of his powered subordinates, a woman with long hair covering her face, hurried forward.  She held a metal box.<br/><br/>Skidmark placed the case on the railing and popped it open.  He placed what looked like a metal canister on the railing, then withdrew the next.  By the time he was done, five metal cylinders were spaced out in front of him.<br/><br/>He picked up the center canister and began unscrewing it.  “Before, we gave our winners the pick of the pick, the best stuff our boys and girls have been able to grab from the rich assholes with their fancy-as-fuck houses and jobs!”<br/><br/>Every eye in the place was on him.<br/><br/>“But tonight is fucking special, because we won the lottery when we found this shit!”<br/><br/>He withdrew a stoppered glass vial from the canister and gripped it in his right hand.  With his other hand, he held the stainless steel canister.  He thrust both hands over his head, each object clenched tight.<br/><br/>“Superpowers in a can!” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/06/02 Excerpt] from [[Infestation 11.5]]</ref> but she is quickly taken out by [[Newter]].<ref name="vsnewter"/>

==Abilities and Powers==
Whirlygig is capable of telekinesis, but only in a counter-clockwise rotation around herself. She uses it to create what is effectively a point-blank telekinetic cyclone around herself,<ref>Whirlygig '''Telekinesis, but only in a counter-clockwise duration around herself.

As she turned, dust, papers, cigarette butts and fragments of rock stirred around her.  They moved in a counterclockwise orbit, rising, increasing in intensity over a span of one and a half seconds.  Whatever her power did, Newter stopped it, smacking her in the forehead with his palm, almost gently.  She stepped back, as if she’d lost her balance.  The building whirlwind around her dissipated into a billowing cloud of dust and her legs turned to rubber beneath her as she tried to step back once more. She fell. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/06/09 Excerpt] from [[Infestation 11.7]]</ref>

==History==
===Background===
Whirlygig is likely a natural trigger.<ref name=":0" group="Note">Seen with the Merchants but was active before they got a hold of several cauldron vials, having been mentioned fighting against leviathan.</ref>

===Story Start===
Whirlygig took part in the battle against [[Leviathan]], she was taken out of the fight about half way through the fight.<ref>The Armband spoke.  ''Losses are as follows:  Debaser, Ascendant, Gallant, Zigzag, Prince of Blades, Vitiator, Humble, Halo, Whirlygig, Night, Crusader, Uglymug, Victor, Furrow, Barker, Elegance, Quark, Pelter, Snowflake, Ballistic, Mama Bear, Mister Eminent, Flashbang, Biter…''<br/><br/>The names kept coming.  I almost wanted to cover my ears, but not knowing for sure was worse.<br/><br/>''…Cloister, Narwhal, Vixen, The Dart, Geomancer, Oaf, Tattletale…'' - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/03/10/extermination-8-3/ Excerpt] from [[Extermination 8.3]]</ref>

===Post-[[Battle against Leviathan|Leviathan]]===
She is later seen with the other Merchants. Presumably she stayed and joined the merchants as she is not in PRT records.<ref name="9.1">[[Weld]] took the folders and opened the one for the Wards, glanced through it to memorize the faces of his new team.  Then he went to the next file, “Then the top priority as far as opposition goes is… the Archer’s Bridge Merchants?  Superpowered drug dealers.  A [[Skidmark|Shaker 2]], [[Squealer|Tinker 2/Mover 3]] and a [[Mush|Shifter 4]]. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/04/03 Excerpt] from [[Sentinel 9.1]]</ref>
