Personality: Sheryll is normally a very cheery and happy person, however -once she enters combat- she becomes rather cold and efficient. She'll still speak to her opponents, however most of it is threats and ordering them to stand down/surrender/etc.

History: Sheryll was born into a lower class family who were forced to give her up to social services, however this was all a ruse by a group of military scientists who wanted the child for their experiments due to her unique DNA structure. for most of her young life they experimented on and enhanced her. At the age of 14 she was deployed in a number of territories to help fight the growing number of insurgents.

During her time here she earned the moniker 'The Iron Maiden' from friendly troops, and though the exact translation varies, nearly all the hostile insurgents who survived had given her the title 'Angel of Death' due to how she relentlessly and unfeelingly cut them down. she did this until she was 22 when she was moved to a special black ops unit where she continued to serve for five years in active duty.

Now she is on an extended assignment to capture or kill any superhuman villians (and sometimes heroes) she runs across. While her current assignment leaves her leeway as to who she goes after, should her superiors order it, she will have no choice but to obey.
As of her current assignment she is a Captain in the USAF.


Powers: Sheryll is a cyborg who has several holes on her body. Each of these holes is about 1/2 inch in diameter (5 on each fingertip, 12 along each arm, 28 on her back: 10 along each side of her spine and 4 on the outer edge of each shoulder blade, 30 on her torso: 3 on each side of her clavicle and 12 on each side of her chest arrayed in 3 rows of 4.) These holes contain several lengths of razor sharp monomolecular wires made of orsinium alloy.

These wires are hard linked to her Neural Actuator Suit meaning that when she takes it off, her access to them is cut off as well, leaving her without the ability to utilize them.

She has cybernetically enhanced eyes and legs in addition to her wires.
Her eyes can increase the amount of frames she perceives per second. In addition her brain has been implanted with a microchip allowing her handlers to activate Genocide mode.

Her legs have been enhanced to allow her to move at incredible speeds. The additional upgrades are due to her ultimate attacks. She has two ultimate attacks, the first she can activate normally while the second one she can only activate in genocide mode. The first involved her deploying all her wires at a reduced range of 40 meters and spinning rapidly (roughly 80 mph).
When using this version she becomes incredibly tired from its use. In addition she can only maintain this for 12 seconds.

Her second version she can only activate when genocide mode is active. In this version she can deploy all her wires at the full range of 120 meters and spins at roughly 140 mph.
While in genocide mode she can use this attack multiple times before tiring. As well, she can use it for 30 seconds.




Genocide mode: This is a subprogram in Sheryll's brain allows her full access to her power at the cost of her free will for the duration of its effects. In this mode her IFF software is turned off and the computer part of her brain overrides her organic mind.
She becomes little more than a killing machine and will elimate any living thing she sees with extreme prejudice. In this mode her wires have full range. This mode goes until she is either incapacitated or her objective is accomplished.

However, she is unable to activate it herself and her military handlers must be the ones to initiate it. Once she is in this mode not even her handlers can bring it out. It was this mode that earned her her nickname among insurgents 'The Angel of Death'

*please note, this is not how much she can pull, just how much the wires can stand.
