Concept: psychic Cop
AKA: Lots of her fellow street officers call her “D”
Desc: Middling tall for a latina, not an ounce of fat on her. No ink. she has the musculature of a hardcore swimmer. Hair like black glass and dark eyes that have seen a lot.
History: She doesn’t remember it all that well, but Dolores was possessed once. They went out and got someone who could yank the spirit out. and when he did, he called for a guardian to keep an eye on her. That guardian stayed with her and taught her much. and when he bid her goodbye, he gave her a gift, Well...She already had the gift but he helped her to learn how to use it.
Papa Chavez had been a highly decorated cop in his day, and he had a smile ten miles wide when she graduated from the police academy.
And now, she walks the streets trying to walk the straight and narrow. but her gifts actually make it harder for her in some ways.
Attitude: “You’re Lying. I can smell it on you. Now I can run you in, shine a light in your eyes and keep you awake for a few days, or you can tell me what’s happening down the street...”
Skills: Physically. She is well skilled. Plentiful dots of athletics, weaponry, and Brawl. Plus dots of dirty fighting FS. She is in great great shape.
mentally, she’s no slouch. She paid attention to her “guardian angel” and got good grades in school. Also, she knows more about the spirit world than most people OUGHT to. She has dots in occult with a specialty or two.
Socially, Dolores is a bit of an introvert, loves to read with her kitty curled up on her lap. Can spend an entire afternoon dicking around on Twitter. Has a lot of fun going around to psychic fairs and outing the charlatans and keeping an eye on those few who are the real deal.
In terms of her abilities. she has the ability of aura reading and she has the ability to sense nearby disturbances in the fabric of the veil between words. Portals opening and closing and stuff like that.
Gear: Standard issue police gear obviously. Also, a number of holy symbols on her keyring that have proven useful in the field. A metal flask which carries holy water, refilled every sunday when she goes for mass.
Home: Dolores and her sister share a spacious two bedroom apartment in a relatively decent part of town. They live close to Scamps and Gloria chavez spends enough of her evenings there after her shifts at the hospital that Dolores has had to post a sign on the fridge that reads. “Get your own food manwhore! Pick through my fridge at your peril.”
Circle: “D” knows some cops, a few of her neighbors and most of the people at her church. Her natural tendency, in spite of her ability to aura read is to want to believe the best of people. hopefully this won’t get her killed some day.
Story Uses:
“Stop! in the name of the LAW!”
Sometimes, you just want to know that there IS a hero cop out there fighting the good fight. Dolores gives people that sort of impression and it’s true, she means it.
“i may know a thing or two about destiny and having some courage.”
having supernatural merits doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t change into something with more juice. Dolores would be a natural as a Hero chasing beasts. Beasts would be wise to steer clear of her.
Connections:
* Sgt. William Donnelly Toughest white man I've ever met, never seen him lie.
* Detective Dana Crowley She's likable and all. But If I tell her what I've really seen, They'll be fitting me for a straight jacket next.
*Detective Bob Greider Brightest aura I've ever seen. And funny as hell.
* Officer Wesley Ullman "he's a seething vortex of unpleasant emotions and such. I wouldn't go anywhere with that guy."
* Special Agent Owen Maccready "I met him once on a crime scene. Totally out of his element. poor bastard."
