Taylor Hebert is the main character of Worm.

Background:

[Coming Soon]

Personality:

Skitter is a member of the Undersiders, who are allied with the Travelers in an as-of-yet unnamed alliance. Skitter is an unpredictable young woman tending towards acts of apparent kindness to those she deems her subjects and bursts of sudden and extreme violence towards those she sees as her enemies. (As according to the "Know where you are" pamphlets, Colony 15, 10)

Appearance:

Taylor is a relatively-tall, rail-thin 15 year old girl with long, dark curly hair.

As Skitter:

Her costume consists of a black-and-grey bodysuit made out of spider silk with armor panels made out of shells and exoskeletons augmented with more silk. Her mask has sections of armor imitating mandibles covering her jaw and dull yellow lenses (taken from a pair of goggles) that incorporate lenses from a spare pair of glasses. Her mask leaves the back of her head uncovered and her hair free to fly behind her.

Abilities and Powers:

Taylor has complete mental control over most invertebrate (e.g. insects, arachnids, crustaceans) within a three block range. She has a secondary ability which gives her increased mental multitasking - allowing her to give specific orders to individual bugs in her swarm simultaneously. She is able to "see" through her insects by sensing the shapes of the surfaces the bugs were crawling on, or the areas the vermin wasn’t occupying.

In addition, Taylor has come up with a multitude of creative uses of her power. For example, she can produce large quantities of spider silk, coat her insects in petroleum jelly and capscaicin to use them like pepper spray, create humanoid figures, mask her movements, and clear out rat infestations.

After Panacea removed the restrictions on her power, Taylor's range and fine control were cut and her power increased to effect everything within sixteen feet of herself.

Utility Belt:

Taylor's utility compartment, where she stashes necessary items and weapons in the armor panel that covers her back. In 18.3, Miss Militia  takes a look at the contents and sees:

• A handgun (Trickster's spare).
• A piece of spider silk.
• Pepper spray.
• A changepurse, containing cotton swabs (to muffle the noise), needles, smelling salts, and change.
• A collapsible baton.

History:

[Coming Soon]

Trivia

• Started running in the morning in February, about a month after her trigger event. Continued doing so until being imprisoned. (Drone 23.4)
• Made about fifteen to twenty million dollars over her career as Skitter. (Drone 23.4)
• Likely triggered Monday the third of January as it was described as the first day of school in the new year.
