Quakezone

Quakezone is one of the Chinatown Metas, who can create earth tremors. She is rumoured to be the daughter of Tremor, the man whose power triggered the Great Quake of 2032.

Description
She's a rather drab-looking Chinese woman who likes to go barefoot. Her eyes show a steely determination.

Background
Quakezone is the daughter of Tremor, the man who triggered the Great Quake of 2032 (in which he died). (This however is not publicly known, though it has been rumoured.) She was brought up by the Chinese government and taught strict self-control to make sure she didn't follow her father and trigger an unintended quake (though they kept her around in case they ever needed her power). Inevitably she had to join the army, but they kept her in administrative jobs to avoid undue stress.

Powers
Other than a certain resilience, her only power is to cause earthquakes. She can cause highly localised ones instantly, but given more time she can make them over a wider area. It is possible that, like her father, she could devastate a continent, but understandably this has never been put to the test.

Personality
Quakezone has led a very sheltered, controlled life, and she believes that this was necessary. She has a lot of guilt and shame about the Great Quake and would like to find a way to make amends, while keeping her connection a secret. She is anything but impulsive, having mastered her wilder feelings.

Relations
Quakezone's feeling about other people can be hard to judge, though she seems more at home with the more heroic of the Chinatown Metas.

History
Quakezone escaped to Colonial Bay from the Siege of Beijing with the other Chinatown Metas, despite not having been active in the Chinese Civil War: it was considered too risky. Since that time she has largely continued to keep her head down.
