Originally hailing from the small town of Liddell, Minnesota, Allison currently makes her home in Crescent Bay, California. She makes a living as a commercial artist for an up-and-coming advertising/public relations firm, but she's equally passionate about using her powers to help others. Due to her upper midwestern upbringing, she's not comfortable asking for help, but she receives it anyway from her roommate and friend, Amphitrite. Allison possesses a very broad psychokinetic power that allows her to manipulate matter and energy, as well as communicate telepathically through brainwave manipulation ("neural telepathy".) Her abilities seem to function more powerfully when used in brief bursts, but she's strong enough to fly by telekinetically lifting her body. Some aspects of her power are better developed than others, and she wears a costume with a special mesh lining that helps her better focus the psychic energies around her. |

Some people aspire to the life of a superhero. Amphitrite Waters (her birth name) never had to. She's the daughter of Poseidon, one of the founding members of the Pantheon of Heroes, and is related through him to co-founders Zeus and Hades. This automatically elevates her to the level of the creme de la creme of the west coast superhuman scene. Coming from two powerful mutant parents and inheriting all of both of their powers (a comparitive rarity) means that she will eventually be among the most powerful superbeings on the planet. Amphitrite takes all of this in stride. She isn't exactly humble, but rather knows she has nothing to prove. Her life's ambition is to be a world-famous chef. In order to make sure that she's getting credit for her talent and not her background or connections, she's moved out of Olympus Isle and created the identity of Amy Walters, human nobody, who has already become a sous-chef at the popular restaurant Valentine's. She lives with fellow mutant heroine Allison Powers, whose dual loyalties to heroism and art mirror Amphitrite's own. Amphitrite has a playful sense of humor, but can also be a bit of a prude. She isn't naive in that regard... she's simply never had the time or the inclination for sex, and finds the topic somewhat distasteful. |
