Affiliations
Allies/Friends
The All-Stars - Ever since being hired by the All-Stars to provide security at a superhero award show, Andromache has been working with them to help locate their abducted leader and has become a regular contact of the group, despite the objections of certain members.
Ghost Hound - Andromache is believed to have ties to the military unit Ghost Hound. The specifics of such are by and large unknown, but she is at least some sort of member of the organization.
Enemies
The Knives of Artemis[1] - Given her rather bloody betrayal and departure, Andromache finds herself hunted by them on occasion.
Arachnos[2] - Lately, Andromache has come to loathe Arachnos above all, taking up a mantle of freedom fighter within the Isles. She would like nothing more to than to bring a painful end to the tyranny of the egomaniacal Lord Recluse. Her actions against his forces are typically swift, yet brutally efficient.
Other
Personality
Carrying herself with a bitter and aloof demeanor, Lucia can often come off as faintly intimidating to others, even when it is not her intent. In common conversation, she is usually polite enough, but exceptionally terse. Wary and difficult to trick, she guards her secrets well and reveals only what she wishes to. To say she is coldhearted, though, is far from the truth. Although she denies any manner of sentimentality, she is remarkably passionate about the cause of freedom that she fights for, and can become surprisingly temperamental when her values or her methods are called into question.
Powers
Advanced Infiltration Training
Extensive and harsh military-style training while amongst the Knives of Artemis has made Andromache a skilled soldier, specializing in infiltration, sabotage, and of course, assassination. Though now on her own, she does her best to maintain her standard practice regiment when not on the job.
Modified Knives of Artemis Blade
As a member of the KoA, Andromache's skills in melee combat were noted to be a significant cut above the average amongst their numbers. To complement her abilities, she was equip with a blade atypical of the signature blade of the mercenary group. Particularly longer than the standard issue sword, it allows for the distance necessary to be a feasible primary weapon. The blade itself wass crafted from a lighter alloy and the usual serrated edges had been forgone, sacrificing some wounding ability for a swifter, quieter swing. Perhaps the most impressive feature of the blade, one often thought to be entirely a thought of fiction, is a device at the base of the blade which vibrates it at an extremely high frequency, further enhancing its cutting ability. Andromache still uses the weapon to this day, and consistently proves herself a deadly force wielding it.
Cloaking Device
Andromache utilizes a high-tech cloaking device that augments her inherent stealth abilities, allowing her to "hide in plain sight". However, this fragile invisibility can be seen through by equipment that perceives life by anything other than sight. (i.e. Thermal vision, aural modifications, etc.)
Black Ops Arsenal
In addition to her primary tools of the trade, Andromache is equipped with various devices that prove quite handy from time to time:
- PSS Silent Pistol- This silenced Soviet pistol is the ex-sister's sidearm of choice.
- KoA Wrist Crossbow- Andromache still makes use of her wrist crossbow from time to time, using it to fire everything from paralyzing darts to shuriken.
- Grenades - Andromache carries grenades of various types. Most notable are smoke grenades, EMP grenades, and a homemade specialty she calls the "Pandora's Box". When deployed, these squared-shaped projectiles release a triple threat of tranquilizing powder, a lachrymatory agent (tear gas), and emetic fumes. With most ordinary units being effected by at least one of the toxins, it provides the ultimate in incapacaitation.
- Advanced Reconnaissance Goggles- Andromache's goggles are capable of thermal vision, night vision, and can also serve as a camera of sorts.
Nanomachine Enhancements
Andromache has been injected with a few different types of nanites during her time with the Knives. While the boons they yield are nowhere near the sole source of her abilities, they are exceptionally helpful in contending with certain superpowered foes, providing antitoxins and reinforcing her mind from psionics.
