Appearance

Grace wears flowing white cloth wraps, silver armor<ref>Interlude 18.z (Echidna)</ref>, steel-toed boots<ref>Sting 26.5</ref>, and studded, reinforced pads at every striking point, similar to a martial artist's outfit but with more coverage.

“A ‘v’,” Golem said, his voice small.

“I get it. You’re calling Behemoth a big vagina.”

“It’s for victory,” Cuff said, sounding annoyed.

"That’s lame,” Imp said.

“Really lame,” Regent echoed, “I prefer the vagina thing.”

“Way you dress,” Grace commented, “I wasn’t so sure.”

“Ohhhhh,” Imp cut in, she elbowed Regent, “Ohhhhh. You going to take that?”

Regent only laughed in response, shaking his head.

“Is the little princess feeling brave?” Grace taunted Regent. “Come on.” - Excerpt from Scarab 25.2</ref>

Personality

She is often energetic and boisterous, but can be resolute or serious when the situation calls for it. In her early days as a Ward, she was known for being vulgar and rude,<ref>Crushed 24.1</ref> adopting the ironic maxim "Don't fucking swear" as a result.

History

Background

Grace likely triggered as part of a multi-trigger event.<ref name="25.3">Watch was a package deal like Grace or Circus. A lot of powers, flexible. His specific powers weren’t on record, but it was fairly well known that he was capable of short bursts of intense, short-ranged clairvoyance. He could see people’s biology, ignore the issues of light, darkness or intervening objects, and he had a limited super speed coupled with what had been dubbed ‘phantom hands’. The ability to reach through people like Shadow Stalker might, targeting particular aspects of people’s body to shred arteries or tear through nerves with his fingers and fingernails. -
