Complications
Acceptance: With a father as difficult to please as hers, Terralyn has become desperate for acceptance, even if she denies needing anyone's help.
Reputation: Because Terralyn speaks her mind and doesn't mince words, many people feel that she is insensitive, which she isn't.
Strict Parents: Terralyn's father has pushed his own agenda on her all her life. She wants nothing more than to get away from her parent's oppression.
Background
Terralyn was born the second daughter of Korean physical trainer Ho Kwan. Kwan had high aspirations for his daughters, especially his eldest, Kimiyo, a gymnastic Olympic hopeful. As soon as Terralyn came of age she was pushed into gymnastics, but found her calling in soccer. Her father appreciated cross training as a means of giving a broad athletic foundation, and Terralyn found herself in a Tae Kwon Do class to improve her kicking and leg strength.
The Kwan family moved to America when the South Korean Olympic team came under investigation for the use of illegal performance enhancers. Kwan didn't want his daughters scrutinized for potentially using drugs, so he came to a, hopefully, cleaner program in the States.
They've been in their current home for a year. Kimiyo is gearing up for Olympic try outs but hates wishes she was back in South Korea. Terralyn is enjoying the freedom of her new culture and never wants to leave. She's looking forward to earning a full ride to a major university from playing soccer.
Personality
Terralyn has been under her parent's oppressive thumbs since birth, and she wants nothing more than spending time with people who won't criticize her every move. Likewise, living in her sister's shadow can be a lot to handle, and it has made her highly competitive, desperately craving the spotlight.
Learning from her father, Terralyn is a bit overbearing, taking charge of situations even when doing so would step on someone else. She uses a lot of sarcasm and sometimes can seem insensitive, regretfully so. Despite her jealousy, she lovers her sister and is very proud of her.
Powers and Abilities
Terralyn is in top physical shape, better than most athletes her age. She excels in many athletic endeavors and, through experience around her father, has learned quite a bit about exercise science and first aid. To round out her education, Terralyn's father had her learn to play the piano, and she's also learned the rudimentary skills of a painter.
Terralyn's primary mutation is the ability to manipulate kinetic energy. As of right now, she has only learned how to amplify the kinetic force of things she touches and her internalize it to increase her own speed. She has shown the potential to create kinetic fields, but so far this ability is limited to unconscious efforts.
A side effect to Terralyn's powers, and yet to be explored, is her ability to detect movements around her by sensing the ebbing and flowing of kinetic force in her vicinity.
