Amazons
General
Human paras who are always female. Naturally amazing warriors and fighters without any training or effort.
Their powers are time limited and require a rebound time.
Powers
Naturally expert warriors in all forms of martial combat. Naturally master weapon users even if they’ve never seen or handled a particular weapon before. Super flexible, fast and strong.
Pupils change colors when using their powers (brown eyes may become blue, green eyes, brown, etc.). There’s a brief moment when the pupils are changing color where the eyes glow. Whatever color they change to is a constant.
Stand taller, are more aggressive when feeling their ‘power’. Have a radiant glow to their skin.
Weaknesses & Limitations
While masterful fighers, they aren’t resistant to injury nor are they invulnerable.
Lifestyle
Tend to be greatly attracted to one another. Many Amazons engage in lesbian relationships.
Are no more likely to be athletic or into martial arts than the average woman. In fact, a large number of Amazons are pacifists, normally.
Legal
Clearly, women who can become super warriors are a legal concern and thus, Amazons are a para group tightly watched for and tracked by the government.
Side Effects
Older Amazons tend to have arthritis and joint problems at a higher rate than others.
MS, lupus, fibromyalgia, chornic fatigue.....all are conditions that are more common with Amazons than in the general population at large.
Other Paranormals
Vampyres and Ubi are often attracted to Amazons and want to feed on them.
More than a match for a Berserker in hand to hand combat.
Though not as fast or as strong as vamps and not as strong as weres they’re still formidable adversaries for both. Especially since they’re expert marksmen.
Male Borrowers can’t borrow their power since it’s female specific.
While in their power, they’re highly resistent to mind control. That doesn’t mean they can’t be controlled it just means it takes a strong para and a lot of effort to do it.
Sadists like the challenge of trying to ‘break’ Amazons.
Cannibals love the way they taste.
Amazons smell different, more masculine, even when they’re not in their power.
Vamps, weres and some other paras can pick up on their scent.
