Doll

Name: Meg Wilson

Alias: Doll

Personality: Meg feels alienated from her former life; she still wants to participate in human society, but feels that her circumstances are a major obstacle, not the least because she has to consciously use human mannerisms or her puppet-body won't use them.  She still cares deeply about people, though, and will go to great lengths to help anyone she knows.  She's not comfortable at all talking about her true nature.

Meg tries very hard to show human mannerisms and facial expressions when she's talking to someone one-on-one.  In a stressful situation, however, these vanish as soon as she's distracted, and her face will look entirely slack and empty when she does.

Physical Description: In her civilian life, Meg looks like a teenager, appearing to stand about 5'2" and weighing no more than 110 lbs.  Her hair is pale blue (she claims it's dye; it is not) and her eyes are a dark red, while her skin is fairly pale and never tans.  She wears her hair in a variety of styles she considers "cute," most commonly pigtails or buns.

As a superhero, Meg wears an immobile white mask that covers her entire face to cover what happens to her face in a crisis, and conceals her form with a dark blue hooded cloak.

Regardless of her clothing, a number of small red-black shining orbs constantly appear, move slightly, and vanish within fifty yards of Meg's center.  These are her sensory organs that can reach into local spacetime, and she has lots of them.

Meg is actually a four-dimensional jellyfish-like creature that measures a good three hundred feet from one end to the other, with the "Meg Wilson" doll attached to one tentacle.  However, any three-dimensional analogy won't really describe it well, and most of her bulk is outside of human-perceivable spacetime.  Meg actually masses a good two hundred and fifty tons, but is able to avoid putting that much weight down in a given spot through means of impossible topography, unless she wishes to.

Powers: Meg has the normal physical strength and endurance of an adult four-dimensional jellyfish that's 300 feet across and weighs about 250 tons that engages in regular physical exercise.  In other words, she's incredibly strong and tough, able to lift tanker trucks and toss them aside or damage or destroy small buildings with ease.  (Note that, while she isn't immune to the laws of physics as far as lifting objects goes, being that big and that heavy gives her incredible leverage to lift anything.)

She can extend parts of her body into local spacetime, letting her manifest tentacles the diameter of telephone poles or small tendrils that contain her many, many sensory organs.  Ordinary physical obstacles in our spacetime usually do not hinder her in any way, any more than a chalk circle drawn on the sidewalk would stop someone from stepping over it.  Thus, she can "See through walls" by sticking an eye beyond them, and can safely be assumed to see everything in a vast radius around her, regardless of where the eyes in her "Human face" are looking.

Her Doll-body can be easily lifted out of local spacetime by the rest of her and put back down somewhere else, making her appear to teleport; it can also be lifted above the surface up to the limit of her reach (about 150' above the ground) making her appear to "Fly."  She cannot, however, pull herself entirely out of local spacetime, and she can't pull her Doll-body out of local spacetime for more than a second.  (It's four-dimensional balance reasons.  You need a PhD in polydimensional spacetime to understand why.)

Her Doll-body does not contain her vital organs, but it has a very large number of sensory organs, and so registers pain and other sensations when it's touched or damaged; she can be stunned or shocked by the pain, and electrical current applied to it will conduct to her entire body.  (It's a huge body, though, so an ordinary Taser won't really produce much of a result.)  She can heal very quickly, and could probably recover from serious damage to the Doll-body in a few days.

Meg does not need to breathe as we understand it, nor does she need to eat three-dimensional food.  She often does, however, to try and connect with her human past.

Meg has a human mind running on an utterly alien four-dimensional brain; someone attempting to manipulate her mind would have problems caused by the responses they'd get, and someone reading her mind could pick up her human thoughts, but would also get terrifyingly alien ones as well from the side-processes of her brain.

Skills: Meg is a good singer, and very skilled at higher-level math, including polydimensional spacetime geometry.  She's also very good at cryptography, and has some skill in computer programming.  She's not a particularly skilled combatant, but her powers constitute cheating so hard that it doesn't really matter-- you may be an eighth Dan in karate, but a tentacle the size of a telephone pole suddenly manifesting out of alien spacetime right behind you will quickly ruin your day.

Meg is quite intelligent and good at multiprocessing, but a lot of her mental power is normally in use coordinating her Doll and her true body.  Likewise, she is very strong-willed and emotionally centered, but much of that strength goes to coping with the dysphoria of her current body.

History:

A year ago, Meg Wilson had an amazing adventure-- she was pulled into a strange, utterly alien world of beauty where singing creatures like jellyfish, the Ql%t!,  lived lives of peace and love-- but devouring forces of eternal hunger attempted to destroy the land.  Meg was able to work with the Ql%t! to defeat the hungry invaders, but at a terrible cost-- her own body was devoured in her final defeat of the Hunger Queen.  But the Ql%t! wouldn't let their champion perish so horribly, and were able to use their own strange science to preserve her true essence.

Unfortunately, they couldn't give her a real human body again-- they had no idea how humans worked, and their own anatomy was constructed in more spatial dimensions than humans actualy possessed.  So they did their best, and gave her a body like theirs, but with an attachment that looked more or less like Meg's old body, and returned her to her home.

Now, Meg is a huge, multidimensional jellyfish-like creature, with a vast array of tentacles and eyes, but the majority of her body is located just outside the immediate space-time continuum; most people will never perceive the true reality of her nature.  She is tremendously strong, can float slowly through the air, or seemingly "Teleport" by relocating the parts of her body that intrude into this spacetime; in addition, physical barriers don't obstruct her vision, because her numerous eyes let her see *around* physical reality as humans observe it.  She can also extrude parts of her body into this reality to strike enemies or handle objects at a distance, without her body entering the intervening space.  But what others think of as her "human" body is nothing but a doll that she manipulates, almost like a finger puppet.

Still, she's making the best of it, using her incredible Ql%t! power to help people, and try and distract herself from the thought of what happened to her original body...
