Reference Sheet: Messier 90

 The Galaxy
Discovered in 1781 by Charles Messier, Messier 90 is a blueshifted spiral galaxy about 60 million light-years away in the constellation of Virgo as part of the Virgo Cluster. It is very bright, even brighter than the Andromeda Galaxy (Messier 31). The star formation within this galaxy appears truncated, giving the arms a smooth and featureless appearance, but there is significant star formation activity at the centre. Supernovae in the nucleus have produced 'superwinds' which are blowing the interstellar medium outward into the intracluster medium. Being a blueshifted galaxy, this means that it moving towards the Earth.

 The Girl
Civilian Name: Alexis Chevalier (Alex for short)
Species/Ethnicity: Alexis is a human from France. She is of mixed ethnicity with a white French father and an African-American mother.
Place of Origin: Marseille, France
Sex / Gender: Female

Sexuality: Pansexual
Birthday: 12th September (Virgo)
Age: 22
Height: 5'5" (165cm)


Likes: Music (of all kinds. Music is her greatest passion, but mostly jazz, blues and classical), dancing, photography, fashion, gossip, performing, playing piano or clarinet, singing
Dislikes: Silence, being ignored, colds and flus (anything that upsets her throat and voice), seeing people in bad moods, racism/racists (you can find her being very vocal about current events on social media)
Dream: To be a world famous musician, hopefully in her current jazz band, or maybe even going it alone.

Personality:
Alexis is a very charismatic and ambitious young woman. She is very confident (sometimes people do have to call her out on being a little too confident) and very creative. Most people find her quite amiable. However she can be quite nosy and very talkative, which gets on other people's nerves very quickly. And she can be very critical of others, especially about fashion sense or choices others make. She means well, but she does upset others often.

If she sees you in a bad mood, she will be the first to come up to you and try to console you. She is a little ray of sunshine (or at least tries to be) and can lift almost anyone out of the dumps, if not through talking, she'll do it through music.


 The Warrior
Designation: Messier 90 (M90)
Realm of Influence: Sound and Vibrations

Weapon: Her voice, and she can conjure up various instruments, from a giant piano that she dances across to produce music, to her trusty clarinet. Each has a slightly different effect in attacks.

Powers:

Messier 90's powers are sound based and she uses her blues, classical, and jazz as a basis for her attacks. She can also summon spectral instruments to perform these attacks, usually a clarinet or piano. M90 acts as an all-rounder in battle, with a heavy focus on support. Her music can pump up her teammates and she can create protective walls with soundwaves. Her ability to control sound depends on there being sound in the environment she's in.

Primarily, she manipulates her voice, but will also use clicks, claps, and taps.

Her soundwaves can create:

• Walls / barriers
• Disorientation
• High pressure pockets
• Pushing forces
• Speed boosts

Her musical powers allow her to invigorate her team and temporarily elevate their power levels in order to have a better chance at striking the enemy.

Associated Abilities:
 M90's hearing is pitch perfect. In her civilian form, this allows her to sing and play perfectly.
 Her ability to remember tunes is amazing. She can remember anything as long as she puts it to a song.
 She can focus her hearing to a point where she can hear things on a level that other people are not able to hear. She can use this ability to spy on others or to find something giving off a specific frequency of sound.
 In dark or unknown environments, M90 can use echolocation to find her way around.

Friends/Comrades:
Messier 53 / Sophie Marceau: BFFs and shopping partners (need to work on this)
