History: Yana's home life was normal, until her powers began to manifest. Her parents were affluent, and ultimately unwilling to deal with it themselves so they sent her off to boarding school, or Ravenwood. Visits were infrequent, and ceased all together. Yana held onto the people she knew at school, but for all her efforts, and her instructors, she developed some pretty deep intimacy issues. While Yana plays things fast and lose in her life, she's always waiting for the other shoe to drop with people, something seared into her by her family's abandonment of her at such an early age.

 

She's a loyal friend, but she never gets too close. A curious trait for a woman that can create friends out of nothing. Yana likes to feel alive. She picked up her skills and her love of Parkour at Ravenwood which she continues into adaulthood. People that meet Yana wonder if she's suicidal or just really raw adrenaline junkie.

 

Now she's content to utilize the small trust fund, and not talk with her parents. Her own fear rules that decision, wanting desperately to reconnect with them, but not willing to risk rejection. She goes from relationship to relationship, lover to lover, always leaving when things seem to be getting to a point where she'd need to put her heart on the line.

 

Yana's main ability, as a mutant, is the ability to momentarily bend the rules of reality, giving life to whatever it is she touches, and gently shakes awake. Her creations are, in general, amicable sorts to her. Yana generally stays away from combat, trying to make herself scarce and letting her creations do the work. She is, however, no fool and makes use of her Parkour skills and the extensive training in self defense she took at Ravenwood to keep her foes off their feet and at the mercy of her creations. She works hard on her self defense and Parkour skills every day.

Unless I missed something you have only one power in the EC. Also it should get OIF.

Yes. I dunno what I was thinking with the EC. But why OIF? Because she has to touch something? I thought about that.. but she can also for instance touch a section of roadway and bring it to life. Would it be fair to give it OIF with such a wide range of choices?

Ragdoll:

 

For an idea of how the "creation" powers might look in action, you could find some old issues of the Legion of Super-Heroes comic (from DC) which feature the Heroes of Lallor, another team of teenaged superheroes from the 30th/31st Century. One of their members is heroine called Life Lass, whose powers are very similar to Qi's.
