JETTY GEMINI
BASIC INFORMATION
Vigilante alias: Orbiter
Player Name: Aim
Faceclaim/Series: Original drawing
Age: 13
Gender: Female
Affiliation: Vigilante
Height: 1.5 meters
Weight: 68 kg
Hair/Style: Blonde, in a bowl-cut, with an odd, plastic sheen to it. It seems to stick together oddly as though it was a helmet. Stops at the base of the neck, with heavy bangs. The surface is very smooth.
Skin/Scars: Her skin is Caucasian, soft and pink without any muscle-tone. Frankly, she's been chubby since she was a baby. She tends to have scars on her fingers, elbows, knees, and sometimes her cheeks or nose, often covered with bandages, as she has a tendency to work a little recklessly on her pet projects.
Eyes: Jetty's eyes are yellow, oval-shaped, and embedded deep in a sort of black, raccoon-mask like hole just above her nose and below her bangs.
They're a bit like something you might see on a computer screen, but there actually are eyeballs inside that odd, shadowy hollow. Her eyes tend to dilate and expand in the presence of strong magnetic forces, making it hard for her to see anything.
Notables: In addition to the previously described oddities, a pair of silver antennae with metal balls, about the size of ping-pong balls, stick out from the top of Jetty's head. These are critical to controlling her quirk. Jetty also has a very wide mouth, but it has no unique features other than being huge and missing a tooth on the upper left side.

APPEARANCE AND PERSONALITY
Appearance:
Sharing few traits with either her father or her mother, Jetty is short, squat, and a little alien herself in appearance, with silver antennae that look like something straight out of a science fiction movie. The antennae are about the length of a hand each, with silver balls at the tips, each about the size of a ping-pong ball and with a free-floating, magnetically suspended ring about the tip. While her skin is mostly normal, pudgy, and pink in hue, her eyes are yellow and a bit like an image on a computer screen, set against a black, monitor-like indentation just above the cheeks and below her bangs, covering an area a bit like a raccoon's mask. Her hair is a sort of blond-brown color, with an odd sheen to it as though it were plastic; it's shaped bowl-like, as though it were a helmet, and it resists being combed into any other shape.
Jetty has a roundish body, roundish face, big hands, and a big mouth, all which tend to make her stand out among other girls and look a bit like a cartoon character. On any given day she may wear five or six bandages, covering places where she's cut, burnt, or bonked herself during the course of her rocket-making projects. The most frequently recurring is a standard bandage across the bridge of her nose. Her movements are usually pretty animated, but due to an aversion to exercise and training, she runs out of stamina pretty quickly and spends a lot of time sitting with both legs crossed beneath her.
At school, Jetty will don the school uniform and it's sailor skirt, but anywhere else, she favors wearing the space-suits her father bought her. These are orange in color, a little frumpy, with heavy black gloves and boots and a utility belt. When she dons the persona of Orbiter, Jetty dresses up in a white, full-body space-suit, this one including several obscure buttons and badges, as well as a full-head helmet. The helmet's white, gleaming surface hides her face from the outside... though, anyone who knows her personally will recognize her profile, her voice, or her behaviors. On this suit, the gloves and boots are attached to the suit itself. The whole thing is very poor for mobility on the ground, but... maybe... ideal for the environment inside her UFO. More likely, this is just her preference as a space nut.

Personality:
Jetty is a bright child, fitting some of the descriptors one might associate with an eccentric genius. She enjoys school and learning, excels in most subjects (though her real potential really only shines through in science and mathematics), and is known as a social student during classes. Out of classes, she doesn't tend to spend a lot of time with the other students. Half the time she's busy with her projects, mostly involving attempting to build a functioning rocket-ship. It's a tall order for a child and she's nowhere near capable of making a working one, let alone paying for the materials and construction, but it's her dream and she sticks to it.
The other half of the time, she's acting as the masked vigilante, Orbiter. In order to keep her school life functional, she tries hard to conceal her identity during her vigilante work. Her motivations for vigilante work are a little less empathetic than the average vigilantes... namely, she cherishes an opportunity to use her quirk as much as she want and then jet off before she can be caught doing so. Beyond that, she feels that everyone, but quirkers especially, has a duty to be a paragon of humanity, in terms of living their best lives. Of course, her reason for that is that she wants everyone to set a sterling display for any aliens who might be monitoring them. Some might say she's a bit cold, for the fact that she is less concerned about people's personal problems than humanity at large, but she has a hard time focusing on anything less than humanity's interests as a whole.
Jetty's father instilled in her a strong belief in not just the existence of aliens, but also, that a mixture of alien DNA, possibly imperceptible to human science, has caused the onset of quirks in humankind. She believes that the timing is very intentional- that the aliens have specifically chosen this period in the world's timeline because they are ready to receive the gift. She sees the aliens as even more powerful than quirkers, hiding their presence until humanity is ready to make contact. To that end, she sees the expansion of space travel to be essential, but also, for humanity to show its best face, so that it will be a race worth their making contact with.
Jetty doesn't think much about her mom, who left her dad sometime during his time in space. She admires her dad, an astronaut who took part in an internationally-funded trip to Mars three years ago. In her eyes, he can do no wrong, perhaps blinding her to the fact that he, a little like herself, is more focused on his work than his family or society. She admires heroes as well, as the greatest paragons of society's virtues, but she can't reconcile the fact that the government restricts quirk usage to just this small class of people. In her mind, it's a serious flaw in humanity's current path, one that will need to be corrected before the bridge can be made to the alien meeting. She gets highly irascible about the subject.
As freely as she loves exercising her own quirk, she loves to see other people's quirks. She also loves seeing their inventions... and some times likes to do a little more than look at them. That is to say, the vigilante Orbiter has a reputation for being a bit of a technology hoarder, sometimes collecting doodads as rewards for her work, sometimes as items that simply go "missing" from people or places during the course of her work. Orbiter has even been spotted rooting through garbage dumps and junkyards, escaping at the last moment to take a haul of machine parts off for God knows what.
Although she acts like she isn't concerned with validation from other people, nor their worries, the truth is, she gets a little lonely. This can be seen in how she is so eager to talk about aliens to anyone who will listen as well as the joys of space travel. It's obvious to anyone who spends some time with her that she really wants friends and comrades with whom she can share her adventure.
Jetty is especially capable at multi-tasking and makes the process of studying seem annoyingly effortless. A prodigy both at reading and working with her hands, the only problem is getting her to focus on tasks she doesn't care for, such as exercising and meeting with other kids. Unfortunately, her father doesn't spur her to do anything but focus on her space travel, so there's no corrective force in her life for this behavior.
On a more light-hearted note, Jetty's speech pattern has "evolved" to include the odd use of onomatopoeia, as a way of hopefully getting along with aliens by using what she hopes will be a "universal language." In practice, it just makes her sound silly. Jetty is fascinated by the possibilities of alien life, and treats mutant quirkers with some reverence. The more mutated they appear, the closer to alien-kind she sees them; it can be a bit insulting for the mutant she turns that attention upon, or, perhaps, a little flattering, depending on the views of the recipient.

HISTORY
Jetty was born the sole child of her father, George Gemini, an aerospace engineer with qualifications significant enough to earn him a place on an international expedition to Mars three years back, as well as the former Misty Gemini, now Misty Violetta, following her divorce. Misty handled the honestly thankless task of raising Jetty through her childhood, with George rarely being home due to intense training and preparation needed for the space mission. Despite this, Jetty idolized her father growing up, wanting to follow in his footsteps and journey out to space. One could see why Misty surrendered her to the care of government handlers until her father's return, preferring to live a life free of both Jetty and George.
From the moment George Gemini returned to earth, it was clear that he was a changed man, and most would say not for the better. As focused on his research as ever, he was now forced to spare some time for his child upon recovering her from the government, and he seems ill up to the task. While he has the money to handle it and theoretically the time, working from his home laboratory in a research capacity, his head still appears to be in the stars. His interactions with Jetty don't involve her friends, boys, games, school life... rather, they could almost be called indoctrinating her, focusing on his space trip and the promise of aliens. Somehow, in space, George become fully convinced, even obsessed, with the existence of extraterrestrial life; he brought that enthusiasm to Jetty, who now lives with it as her guiding force. Even George's fellow astronauts don't know what happened to George to cause this change in his behavior... or, perhaps, the reason is classified.
While George was busy on his space trip, Jetty had a harder childhood than she was probably willing to admit to herself. A quirked mutant, overweight, with no presence of her father in her life, Jetty was often bullied by other children. In recent years, her life has changed, partially due to the vibrant and outgoing school persona she's managed to cultivate, but she's still seen as something of an oddball and takes few steps to correct this perception, focusing less on other kids and more on her bizarre projects: testing everything from model rockets to escape pods to miniature lunar landers, everything she can think of that might ultimately relate to her very own space trip some time in the future. So far, she hasn't made any real achievements in this area, but the fact that she keeps trying shows her deep commitment to space travel and her father's legacy. She loves to show these projects to anyone who will listen, getting their input and, critically, their materials when available.
Jetty started masquerading as the vigilante, Orbiter, shortly after her father returned. Being Orbiter allows her to use her quirk to a fuller extent than she ever dared under government surveillance. She convinced herself early on that she couldn't be a hero student nor a hero- after all, the government watches them closely and restricts their quirk usage. To her, being a vigilante means freedom: the freedom to do some good while exercising her quirk however she pleases. Luckily, her quirk is ideal for escape maneuvers, which keeps her out of the reach of cops. The significant dangers she faces, of course, are anyone realizing it's her behind the mask or, otherwise, some hero getting involved and catching her pod on its way out. Worse, the possibility of some villain getting the upper-hand on her, as she tends to work alone in rather unsafe situations.
As Orbiter, Jetty doesn't have a way to track villain activity, so her operations are mostly limited to the obvious, like rescuing someone from a burning building. Worse, if she doesn't have her costume, she can't risk using her quirk for fear of the connection between herself and Orbiter being made. Furthermore, some of her activities as Orbiter really have nothing to do with vigilantism... she has adopted the persona in some occasions just to procure parts for her engineering projects. As such, Jetty could be said to lack commitment as a vigilante, but it's basically kept her off of anyone's radar as far as investigation.
Recent events have convinced Jetty more than ever that a meeting with aliens, a higher power with advanced knowledge, is the next step in the evolution of humanity that began with the alien DNA that begot quirkers. In her eyes, increased villain activity is no different than strife throughout humanity's past: lost souls, unsure of what to do about a world changing around them, take it out in unproductive ways. In her eyes, it's important that humanity puts aside desires for wealth, status, even personal relationships like love, and focuses instead on moving together as a unified force into space. She continues life as a student by day, Orbiter by night, but devotes herself to the research of aliens and space travel, no matter the time.
