Spotlight - Savannah Star

Hero Name: Savannah Star
Name: Serenity Stevens

Star has been a struggle for me to play at times, because she's had to evolve into a person I like. I know that sounds odd, but in essence, that's what it's come down to. This is a girl who never really learned who she was, but has tried to be what everyone else has told her she should be.

Star is all about layers. Her top layer is very diplomatic and friendly and outgoing. Her middle layer is self-absorbed and angry - product of the suppression and control imposed by her father, who was very controlling.

Beneath it all, however, she's insecure. She's scared. She feels alone and lost like a child who was left standing in the middle of a department store and never even looked for much less found.

She hopes she's been found. She wants to be. She hasn't let her significant other fully in yet. She wants to, but has built some fairly high walls to protect that child inside.

The move to FOUND House is part of that. It's a way to begin again on her own terms and figure out exactly who Serenity Stevens is and where she is going.

Game Notes:

Uber energy/energy blaster with invisibility. She kicks ass as long as she can lay the suckers out fast. I can solo her, and I can toss her onto a team. She holds her own in both situations, and I can attribute the success in making her totally playable to Doyce and the piles of great advice he's given me on the powersets. :)
