Ask My Character Anything
5 years ago
I've seen some others do this, so I figure I might as well do the same. Plus, I'm curious what questions people might come up with.
A few things first though:
1) The world that Razira inhabits is best described as 'real life, but with superheroes'. Everything that has happened in real life has happened in her world, too. Just a few changes have happened to allow the existence of superheroes.
2) Keep the questions SFW, please, and no creepy comments as well.
3) Beyond that, ask whatever questions you have for me, or for Razira, and I'll get back to it.

1) Did the events of 9/11 have any impact on your career as a superhero?
2) How do you manage your family responsibilities with those of being a hero? Do you find it particularly challenging?
2) It is challenging at times to deal with family responsibilities, because whenever I hear about something minor going wrong somewhere, I want to jump into action to try to help. As the years have gone on, I've come to realize that I have to relax like everyone else, and that I can't be on call 24/7/365. When major things happen, sure, I can drop whatever I'm doing to help, but I can't be around all the time to try to deal with every little thing.
As far as flat out people I don't like working with...hmm. I'd say those Heroes that use guns. While I understand that not everyone is as superpowered as I am, I just don't like the sight of various small arms weaponry, even if it's non-lethal. Maybe it has to do with having so many of them pointed my way over the years.
As far as sports go, I'm really not too much of a fan of anything. I do love to swim though. Give me a good sized swimming pool, or maybe the ocean itself, and I'm a happy werewolf.
My biggest weakness? By a longshot, it's anything silver. Not only am I deathly allergic to it, but it screws with basically every one of my abilities if it touches me for more than a second or three. Thankfully most baddies believe in standard lead instead of silvered bullets, and silvered melee weapons are even rarer. My biggest risk in everyday life is actually jewelry. I had some nice antiques from my grandmother that I can't wear anymore thanks to my change!
As for my powers...I seem to lean more on the firey side of my powers verses my icy ones. My icy ones are mostly defensive in nature - icy shields, icy armor, freezing things so they can't be used against me, freezing the floor so people trip, etc etc. Fire is generally about attacking - bolts of fire, explosive fireballs, set things ablaze to block off paths, that kind of stuff. Plus it's human nature to be afraid of fire, so that fear factor works to my advantage in a fight.
I've also seen quite a few that are just scared of what they've become...and I think those are the most difficult types to deal with. They either clam up and don't want to do the most basic of things like eat or drink, or they let the wolf consume them and go on wild rampages as a result.
In short...every one of them is unique in their own ways.
What if villainous organizations designed to counter them?
