Abilities:  Toxic Touch--if Johnny's bare left hand comes into contact with your skin, you're going to get sick. The exact level of damage is determined by duration of exposure.  A high five might cause an illness that could be misconstrued as food poisoning or the flu--relatively mild conditions that are fairly easy to recover from.  Her holding your hand for a few minutes would likely land you in the hospital for an extended stay if not kill you.  Ecstatic Touch--on the flipside, if she touches you with her bare right hand she can make you feel really good.  Again, the effectiveness depends on duration of touch.  At minimum she can make you feel very happy and still pain.  At maximum, you're drunk on endorphins.  The two touches negate each other, provided they are done in equal measure.

Weaknesses: Johnny's not immune to her touch.  She has to wear gloves at all times and the extremely rare times when she doesn't (bathing, personal hygiene, etc) she runs the risk of making herself extremely ill.  There is no counter for this.  She cannot use her touch to cancel out anything she does to herself.  To this end, she wears gloves near constantly, going so far as to carry hospital gloves with her at all times just in case she needs to do something more dexterous than her leather gloves will allow.  She also has standard human weaknesses and is a really slow runner.  A tortoise could catch her.  Also?  Clumsy.  Very clumsy.  Obstacle courses slay her.


Character location/Home: Cadmus Labs
Alignment (villain, hero etc): more or less Hero
Team: Doom Patrol
Relatives (living/dead?):


Backstory:  Johnny's a circus freak.  Daughter of two carnival workers, after a freak accident in her early teens (it involved a tank of water and Electrical Girl and was very unpleasant) Johnny actually died...and came back three days later with her freaky powers.  At first her parents embraced this and she became the star of the traveling circus/carnival circuit in Oklahoma but by the time she was seventeen, her parents were dead (another freak accident, this one involving Animal Boy and Johnny accidentally not wearing the right hand glove whilst making out with him...) and Johnny'd caught the eye of a Cadmus scientist.  He brought the girl under the guise of trying to figure out a way to fix her.  They still claim that they are working on that, but in the meantime they've offered her a place on the Doom Patrol.  As it's better than being a carnival worker, Johnny has no problem taking them up on that offer.


How do you plan to introduce the character to the game?: The initial Doom Patrol Plot that Dylan's cooking up.
What are you planning to do with this character?  Be part of the Doom Patrol.  Again, Dylan has a long-range plan.  I just want to explore her weirdness.
What do you want to see happen with this character?: Johnny's ultimately the catalyst for her parents' death so I would like to, over the course of time, to see hear finally accept and deal with that in a manner that isn't her usually glibness and sometimes inappropriate nonchalance.

Please include a sample post/scene
