Personality

Skitter guesses that she's lonely based on her expressions.<ref name="13.5"/> further she did not think Genesis seemed like a very good actor.<ref name="16.13">Monarch 16.13</ref>

Appearance

Jess is described as an average-looking, wheelchair-bound girl with a mop of auburn hair.<ref name="13.4">Snare 13.4</ref> Her legs were thin, atrophied as a result of how long she'd been in the wheelchair.<ref name="13.5" />

Abilities and Powers

Jess can create a new body and control it while her own sleeps. The new bodies can have powers of their own, but using her power is easier the more biologically-stable the body she makes is.

Once she activates her power, she only has a set amount of time to visualize the form she wants to use, complete with any organs or mechanisms to allow for special abilities. Failure to include vital organs means her power will drain her reserves, while other forms may lack the ability to move properly if she doesn't pay attention to limbs and the like.<ref name="13.5" /> It takes her two minutes to produce a new form.<ref name="13.3">Snare 13.3</ref> Her creations faded when she woke up.<ref name="13.5">Snare 13.5</ref>

She had to be awake for a while to "recharge" her ability.<ref name="13.10">Snare 13.10</ref><ref name="13.5" />

Demonstrated Forms

A "triceratops-bull-cyborg thing" that could charge through doors.<ref name="6.1">Tangle 6.1</ref> A "lady knight in shining armor" that could handle men with guns.<ref name="6.1" /> An eight-foot-tall muscular figure like a gargoyle, demon or dragon, with four talons, pebble-like scales, and a short tail.

Two bulbous eyes, two tentacles or floppy ears and a body that hugged the ground.

History

Background

She was in a wheelchair since she was four.<ref name="13.5" /> Jess was a member of a professional-level video game team on Earth Aleph. When the Simurgh attacked Madison, WI on Earth Bet, she took several buildings from Earth Aleph - including the building Jess was in - which left her stranded on Earth Bet with her friends. After Francis found a suitcase full of Cauldron superhero serum, they each took one except for Noelle and Oliver who only took half a dose.

Story Start

She travelled to Brockton Bay with the rest of the Travelers.

Gold Morning

Quotes

"A world that was awesome in the truer sense of the word, greater in so many respects. In a metaphorical sense, the peaks were higher, the valleys lower, works of art more artful, extremes more… extreme. It wasn't a good thing. Make the mountains twice as tall and the chasms twice as deep, and things start crumbling." Jess to her team members <ref name="17.8">Migration 17.8</ref>
