Maria Whitworth, known publicly as Horizon, is a member of The Protectorate and the tentative head of its Anchorage branch.

Personality[edit]

Horizon is professional and no-nonsense; eager and able for advancement. She possesses a strong sense of justice, sometimes to her detriment; two instances of principled insubordination are thought to have stymied her career.<ref name="PRTF 3">PERSONALITY:
Horizon works well with teammates and imbues those she leads with a natural, easy discipline and order. Horizon has two red marks on her record, stemming from incidents where she chose to speak out against what she perceived as wrongs, despite orders to the contrary. (Conference Directors 22 and 3(los angeles) for more information). This may have slowed her advancement. Annual psych profiles are consistently sound, though they point to a chronic frustration. Achieving her new position should remedy this. - PRT Files document 11</ref>

Relationships[edit]

Husband[edit]

Horizon's husband is a non-cape who makes a living online as a musician/sound tech. <ref name="Wildbow PRT">Wildbow PRT Quest Archive</ref> While she does love her husband they agreed that they did not want children.

Cape Community[edit]

Horizon spent time under the mentorship of each of the Triumvirate before her transfer to Anchorage.<ref name="R1">in all seriousness, she spent time with the Triumvirate. - comment by WildBow on Reddit</ref>

Abilities and Powers[edit]

Horizon has three types of enhanced senses. She can use only one at a time.

Zoomed sight with simultaneous viewing and processing of multiple scenes in F.O.V.
Sight through inorganic material. Can be used to locate persons through walls.
Organic sight that allows her to see the inner workings of an individual’s body in detail.

Horizon's primary offensive power is an explosive touch linked to perception. Her striker ability is somehow linked to the quality and quantity of her focus on a target. It has ranged from delivering blows at five or so times the usual strength to obliterating large vehicles. The variance in effectiveness sometimes drastically changes from one moment to the next.<ref name="PRT Quest">PRT Quest document 11</ref> Furthermore, the more open area behind her target, the more she can let loose.

As a complement to her advanced senses Horizon has learned to lipread with accuracy.<ref name="PRTQ37">PRT Quest p37</ref>
