Gained Character Traits:
- Fast (You are known for your speed)
- Specialist (You are skilled in manipulation of your powers)
- Analytical (You know to watch, plan, and prepare for your opponents)

---------
You smirk as you review what you know in your head. The streets below are not safe, but up here, the moonlight is enough to keep the shadows back. Not that any ordinary shadow could really threaten you in any case, but you don't want a straight fight right now. Not here anyways... You have a fight to get ready for.
First things first your approach. How are you going to start this?
(An approach that has better synergies with your traits will establish your character more clearly to the audience, but will also give more of your character away, giving you less tolerance when it comes to pulling out new powers if you need to.)
[] [Opening] A surprise is always a good way to start. Interrupt after your hero has just finished off the enemy for this episode.
Opportunist Synergy: They'll be tired after already fighting after all.
Analyst Synergy: You'll also get some chance to watch your hero fight beforehand and learn a bit about their style.
[] [Opening] Corral some mooks of your own and be the villain for the episode.
Analyst Synergy: You'll get some chance to watch your hero fight beforehand and learn a bit about their style.
You'll get some more screentime.
[] [Opening] Challenge the Hero independently. (Gain Character Trait: Straightforward)
No Synergy
You'll take up the entire episode, make sure the fans know you're a big deal!
Once you have your approach planned, it's time to make sure you look the best you can. After all, you had dramatic shadows to conceal your face before. This is going to be your first time in full view, or at least your first time revealing more than just a voice.
So who are you?
[] [Gender] Male
[] [Gender] Female
Moreover, you have to make sure you look your part. Only one problem. You're not entirely sure what genre you're working in. Still, you can make a pretty good educated guess based on the appearance of your hero.
The hero looks like...
[] [Hero] A magical girl of some kind?
You're pretty sure you saw her do a transformation sequence at least once... (Gain Setting Trait: Magical Girls. Set Hero Gender: Female)
[] [Hero] Some sort of operative?
They seem to like their Badass Longcoat a fair bit. (Gain Setting Trait: Gothic Mystery)
[] [Hero] A total anachronism.
Honestly. You know it's Anime, but this is a modern setting. What are they doing wearing plate armour?! (Gain Setting Trait: Urban Fantasy)
[] [Hero] Disturbingly normal.
Like... Jeans and a T-Shirt under a Hoodie normal. If it weren't for their technicolor hair you wouldn't even be able to pick them out of a crowd of extras... (Gain Setting Trait: Deconstructive)
You, of course, color coordinated your outfit to look appropriately 'opposite' to the hero, so for the most part you have a dark counterpart image going on. Adjusted for your own theme and abilities of course... Or Maybe...
[] [You] Telegraph your powers.
Something sleek to reflect your speed, maybe with some sigils or signs to reflect your power aptitude, and something to reflect your analytical mind, perhaps some fancy glasses? Or a mask? (Specialist Synergy, Analyst Synergy, but not much room to pull out any surprises.)
[] [You] Conceal your powers.
Try to make your appearance a little more neutrally focused to keep the hero and audience guessing. (No Synergy, but gives you some room to pull out a surprise or two)
[] [You] Obfuscate your powers.
Go for the opposite of what would be expected for your abilities. It won't last forever, and it's risky, but if you can pull it off... (Opportunist Synergy, some room to pull off a surprise.)
It's almost time...
