Personality-
Ashley is very good at controlling her emotions, she can keep her cool when she needs to or let out her rage. She’s a very good actress when needed. She isn’t the type to express herself by telling other people how she feels, especially if she didn’t fully trust them. She doesn’t normally trust people easily, she was raised to be secretive. She keeps to herself and tried to blend in with her surroundings. She comes across as a mysterious girl, always keeping her secrets to herself and never letting anybody find out who she has met or what she has seen. Ashley thinks that is for the best, to be secretive and mysterious. It’s easier that way, since she doesn’t let people get to know her. Usually she meets people through work, and tries to stay professional. She does and says whatever she needs to in order to get the job done.
Ashley can be just as sweet as any other girl, she isn’t the type to start something for no reason and cause more problems than she already has. Around those she loves, she is an angel. But when it comes to her enemies, you can forget it. She isn’t one to hold back, she lets everything out. She tries to hardest in any given situation, whether it be a test or an objective. She has a lot of confidence in herself and believes she can do it if she believes in herself. Although most people think she is a sap for believing it, in the end it works for her. Ashley is also helpful, she tries to do her best to help when she is able to, or if she needs to. She isn’t one to give up either, if she believes in something, then she tries her best to enforce it. She is very good about standing up for herself, she would never give anyone the chance to get to her.
Brains are a big part of who Ashley is. With it, she can do a lot. She’s the type of girl that sees knowledge as powers, so she keeps it to herself most of the time, unless it is specific information that needs to be shared. She doesn’t let secrets out without a good reason for it. She comes up with different ways to solve problems that can be both useful and more creative than any regular person. Ashley has always had a passion for science, and learned a lot about chemistry and physics. She likes to know how things work and hat she encounters along the way. She does a lot of reading, so she is both book smart and street smart. If “special smart” or “Company smart” were official things to be, than she would definitely in those categories too. Ashley has been in the company for a long time and has not only seen but learned a lot.
Despite her size, Ashley is also very tough. She has a very high tolerance to pain, thanks to all her training. She has a lot of physical skills such as mixed Martial Arts and is also very flexible. She knows her limits, but they are very high, sometimes even higher than she thinks. She likes to push herself past her limits and watch herself get stronger and stronger. Ashley loves a challenge, and she will take it on if she thinks she has even the slightest chance of completion. She is very self sufficient, she is very good at taking care of herself and does a good job of it too. She would never rely on a single person to get her out of a tight spot, she takes better care of herself. That’s why she is much better when she flies solo. She’s just one of those girls that works better alone. But that doesn’t mean she’s totally against teamwork.
Being cooped up or trapped, is seriously something Ashley can not stand. She likes to be out and about. She loves to be free. Being told what she can do and what she can’t isn’t something that sits well with her. It angers her, and you really don’t want to get on Ashley’s bad side. When she’s pushed off the edge is when she is at her scariest. Ashley can be very aggressive when she knows she has to be. usually she gives everyone a chance, but if somebody isn’t going to play nice with her, she’s not going to try to play nice back. She gets things done however necessary. Ashley also has a history of psychotic breaks. Back when she was a teenager she became obsessed and almost killed her best friend. So, she tries to keep her obsessions under control.
Abilities/Powers/Skills-
Hydrokinesis- Ashley has the primary ability to control water with her mind. She has had the power for a long time and over the years her power grew and she learned to master it and discovered many different ways to use it. She can bend and stretch water, even move it around and make it do whatever she wants. She can mold and shape it, make it looks like whatever her mind can think of. Since it if a liquid, it cane take on any shape that she can think of. Ashley can also use her power to increase or reduce the temperature of water to a freezing or boiling point in a matter of seconds. She can even dehydrate somebody by ripping the water out of them using physical contact until they have nothing left. Ashley could even use the water as a weapon by using it to whip people or project a power water blast. She can even use it as a when it forms in front of her. Ashley can also gather moisture from the air around her to form water.
Water Mimicry- Ashley has the secondary ability to become water itself. At first she could only turn into water when she came into contact with it so she could quickly travel through a body of water. But, now her power has advanced. She can now become water at will. Whether it be certain parts of her body that she wants to become liquid or even her whole body. When coming into physical contact with somebody, she can use this power she any place that is struck with become liquid and not hurt her, but she needs to stay focused on it. Also, when she completely becomes water, she is able to freely move around and get through nearly impossible places just by going through a crack or under a closed door. Also, when she comes into contact with separate water, and it touches any wounds she may have, then the water binds with her and heals any wounds she has.
Limits-
Hydrokinesis- Although Ashley has mastered her ability and has excellent control over it, there are still limits to her powers. She cannot change the water from it’s liquid form. It cannot become solid or even a gas form. When it comes to moving water around, she can’t move anymore than a ton of water at a time, otherwise it would give way and she wouldn’t be able to carry it anymore. Even if she tried to lift a ton of water, it would still be exceedingly difficult and require immense concentration. She can only move water forty feet away from her, any farther and she would lose control of it. If Ashley reduces the temperature of water to a freezing point, she can’t control it any farther unless she heats it back up to a fresh liquid again. When trying to bring back a freezing water to a boiling water, or vise verse, it takes two times as long. If she were to dehydrate somebody by removing the water from their body, then she can’t put it back, because it would kill them right after.
Water Mimicry- Becoming water itself has a few major flaws. First thing it, electricity. If Ashley were to come in contact with electricity than that would overall make it impossible to stay in her liquid form. Once under the influence of electricity, she can’t use her secondary power until it passes. She would even have to wait till her body got over the shock of it all. If she was already in her liquid form when struck with electricity, then her body would go right back to it’s normal state. Also, if she were to be frozen in her liquid form, she wouldn't be able to move or have any control until she was heated down enough to be able to move again. Ashley is able to expand while in her water form, and stretch herself out, but she can’t split herself up or unattached.

History-
Ashley Knight was born in raised in San Francisco, California. Ashley's parents both had powers, and at the age of 8 Ashley discovered she had powers too. She had the ability to manipulate and control any type of water. Her parents were rather proud but also scared. Now that they had a daughter with powers Ashley's mother, Laura became afraid that her husband, Henry also Ashley's father would try to draft Ashley to The Company like his father did to him. Laura would not accept that. Ashley also had a younger brother, Sam who also had the power of Cryokinesis. As long as Laura was around Henry couldn't get a hold of either of the kids to bring into the company, especially against their will. Ashley also had became best friends with a girl named Madison Taylor who was special like her.
When Ashley was in her later teens and got her first serious boyfriend but, she had some problems. She took things way to fast and then became uncontrollably jealous when she thought her boyfriend was in love with her best friend Madison. One thing led to another and Ashley had a psychotic break and attacked Madison. Madison knew she was sick and only wanted her to get better. Henry finally convinced Laura to let him take Ashley to get the help she need from The Company. She finally agreed and Ashley spent over a year getting treatment at The Company and they also trained her stealth, karate, swordsmanship, and that's when Ashley found out she also a new ability, Hydroportation. Every day was the same thing, countless hours of training to prepare herself and her body for what was about to come. She was even trained to induce her pain tolerance.
After Ashley's treatments where done her father asked her to give back to The Company for all that they had done for her. Her father asked if she would join him, as in join The Company to help them bring in other people like them that might need there help. It took awhile but when she finally saw all the "good" things that The Company was doing there like what they did for her she decided to help. She might be fairly new to The Company so what she's really been doing is using her hydroportation, when near water to watch some specials from a far hoping she wouldn't be seen till it was time to move in. Her first target was a new manifested special by the name of Mike Lane, who was also the best friend of her little brother. Although there was a personal conflict, she didn’t let that stop her.
When it was time for Ashley and her civilian pattern to go after the phaser, somebody got in her way, a girl named Kayla who she remembered seeing in the company archives before. She had to fight her off, which she did, and her partner Tom helped her take down the boy. It was her first real bag and tag, and from there things only got the more interesting. She continued to working for the company and stayed loyal to them. There was only one special that ever got away from her, and that special was named Charlie. She met up with another agent named Agatha and they tried to take on the special together, but they failed. They left her alone after that, as if they had much of a choice, but one good thing did come out of that day. Ashley finally had a friend. Something she hadn’t had for a long time.
One night she decided to go out and have some fun in Vegas, and that night changed her life forever. She met a guy there by the name of Daniel, and it was like love at first sight for her. The two flirted throughout the night and they decided to continue their night at a nearby hotel. She lost her virginity that night, but she gained something else. After she slept with Daniel, she ran into her friend Madison at the hotel. Of course the reunion didn’t last very long as these men in black showed up and ended up taking her away. Daniel promised her that she would help get her old friend back, but after that they lost contact. Later at a company meeting she spotted him, with some girl all over him. She ended up working with two other specials and saving Madison and her brother. Although she didn’t know why he was there. Daniel had joined the company and wouldn't even speak to her. She didn’t know what to say to him either. After the meeting Ashley was transferred to Odessa, Texas. Her company friend Agatha went along with her and they got a house for them and their two partners.
After she moved to Texas, she learned she was pregnant, and she knew everything about to change. She was always a secretive person, and the only people who knew was her partner Tom and then she told Agatha later. Ironically, Agatha had gotten together with another company guy named Adam and got pregnant herself. She was afraid to tell the company and already wasn’t getting along with the leader, Pacy McNeil. Agatha and Adam later was fired from the company after they found out they were having a fling and didn’t say anything. After that, Ashley came clean and somehow they kept her on after all her years of dedication with the Company. She was pleased to be sticking around. The Company was the only thing she really knew. Although she had to start taking it easy.
Later she found out that the father of her unborn baby had died. She heard that he was burned alive by Conall Saint Albans, who she had helped bag once, and a pyrokinetic named Emma who she soon had a run-in with. She went to a Yankees game where Emma was and things got pretty violent fast. Although she was well into her pregnancy, Ashley still managed to put up a fight. Emma ended up burning her stomach where there is now a scar of a hand print right on her stomach. She ended up getting away, but she swore to have her revenge on her for killing Daniel. Luckily, the baby was fine and unharmed by the burns. But she knew after that, this baby needed to be born already. She met a special named Elinor with the powers of biokinesis, and could help her baby come even faster. She just didn’t expect Agatha to be there, too.
Agatha was angry with Ashley for not loosing her job after Agatha did. She explained herself and apologized, and after Elinor worked her magic, they were fine after that. Ashley had a beautiful baby boy and Agatha had twins. Ashley loved her baby boy, he was the only thing she had left of Daniel since he was gone. Her baby made her happy and felt like her life was worth living besides just being a company agent. Agatha and Adam got married and Ashley was invited to the wedding, but after that, it was like they disappeared. Some time went by before she was assigned to bag and tag her father’s friend Aidan Aldred. She use to have a huge crush on him and ended up telling him about it. She never expected for them to get together, but they did. They had to live apart, but suddenly she noticed that Aidan disappeared. But really he was killed.
After losing two men that she had been with, Ashley knew that she couldn’t date anymore. So, she tried her best to cut herself off from men. Obviously it was a sign from above that she wasn’t me to be with anyone. When April fourth rolled around, Ashley was actually still asleep after a long night of taking care of her baby. She woke up that morning to see all the panic on the news, all the devastation. She was glad to have missed out. Things got bad around the world, everyone now knew about the existence of specials. Also, the company was attacked and they had to rebuild in Vegas. Everything around her was changing, but she wasn’t going to let that effect her life. She still had her baby to think about. She went to New York and went to visit Daniel’s grave. That’s when she saw him. It was Daniel. He was alive.
She thought she was just hallucinating, missing him. But it was truly him. She couldn't believe that he had been alive this whole time and was over joyed to see him again. He told her all about how he got the new power of illusion and made Emma and Conall believe that they actually killed him. They ended up hooking up that night for old times sake, but after the fling passed he had to leave. She wanted him to meet his son, but Daniel was a changed man, he was a villain now. He left her, and Danny. Daniel was gone, in hiding somewhere, but Ashley decided that she just didn’t care anymore. She wasn’t going to let that get to her, not after everything. She had her old friend Madison helping her while she was working with the company and everything. It was very nice to have her around, even after her little trip to the Fight Club.
It was apart of her company duties, being one of the agents to spy in the fight club and pass through information back to Grace Harper. Her very first fight was against Alice Taylor, another company agent. Just her luck. She tried her best, but apart of her was holding back and her powers started going out of whack, so she ended up losing. She couldn’t stick to the fight club, so after her second match she left to go back home to Danny. Usually, she only became water whenever she touched water so she could transport through it, but now she was randomly becoming water at will. Her powers were advancing. While she was training with Tom one day, every time he hit her, she become water and it didn’t even phase her. It took a lot of training, but she slowly took control over her new powers.
She thought things were going back to normal for her, but she was wrong. One day she gt a call about her old friend Madison. She had died when she was traveling across Arizona. She looked on the news to see that hundreds of people died, some special lost control of their cryokinetic powers and Madison was merely a single victim among many others. This worried her and Ashley thought her brother had something to do with it. She called back home, but it wasn’t him. She was sad over this, but it only made her just more protective over the people she cared about. She didn’t think she was going to lose any more people in her life, but apparently she was wrong. Ashley got assigned to look after an escaped Company special named Andrew Dufresne. He had the power of power negation, and he was highly dangerous.
It took her and Tom a long time to track him down, but they did it. They found him after he ran from Vegas to New York. Carefully she kept an eye on him, but one day he noticed her. Luckily for her, she had plenty of skills to make up for her power loss. And that was a good thing too, because she ended up needing it. Andrew knew all along who Ashley was from seeing her in the cells one day. So, after he saw her, he tried to run. Ashley and Tom chased him into a run down old building. Andrew found found Tom on the highest floor and stabbed him in the back. Right after he set a bomb. Ashley finally found them as Andrew was trying to escape. He ended up jumping out of the window and went down the fire escape. She then noticed the bomb was about to go off. She tried to help Tom, but he was already dying. He said to go on without him.
Ashley swore that she wouldn't lose anyone else, but it was either both of them or one. Tom made her promise that she would go home and see her baby again. She jumped out of the window as the bomb went off and she flew right over the fire escape and went straight for the ground. Thanks to her powers, she had became water as she splattered on the ground and then went back into her human form. Tom was dead, and now Andrew was still on the run. She had been doing everything right for so long, and she promised something like this would not happen to her again. She was going to be assigned a new partner. But a part of her was afraid for what would happen next.
Eventually, Andrew was found and taken in. Ashley herself had her part in that during the wedding of Mike Walker's mother. Since then she has cut ties with revenge. She now focuses on being a good Company agent and providing for her three year old son, Danny. The Company has been through many changes, but Ashley's loyalty to them still grows strong. She's a true Company girl and can't imagine herself as anything else. She has become a sort of trainer for other new agents, having the skills in combat that she does. She has come to enjoy trying people how to fight and protect themselves as other agent taught her.

Sample RP-
Training. That’s all she seemed to be doing lately. Everyone else in the company was out looking for there bag and tag assignments, lucky for Ashley after bumping into Scott Conway in California, hers was now completed. All that was left now was her new observation of a young special girl named Charlie that seemed to be missing in action at the moment. This gave Ashley more time to focus on her combat and special skills she was hoping she might soon get to show off against some fool that tried to stand up to her. Everybody only underestimated her, she never got to strut her stuff, but hopefully that would change.
Ashley never got to really prove to her fellow agents or assignments the just of what she could really do. She was all talk and apparently no action. Or at least not enough. The only real people that saw her real skills was her sparring partner and childhood best friend Madison Taylor who is in the process of changing her last name for her own protection, and then there was her company partner Tom. She usually found that she trained better when she had somebody there with her, although the only real partner she seemed to be equal with was Madison, but that was only because she was a muscle mimic.
She was in the training facility at the present time, she was training with Tom, who in recent events seemed to only be like her civilian punching bag, given that his skills never really came close to Ashley’s. She couldn’t exactly bring Madison with her to train with her, mainly because she wasn’t suppose to know about the company, and also because she was in Odessa watching Danny all the time. Having Madison back in her life was such a relief, especially now with Daniel alive and back in the picture permanently. Although Tom really did suck with the whole combat thing, his technology usually made up for it, that, and his nimble footwork.
As they were training, Tom was acting scared. He never came up to face her one on one, he was always backing away and trying to protect himself. He was a bit cowardly like that, but it was probably just because he was up against Ashley, and he knew better than anyone just what she was capable of. Ashley had two long and sharp swords on the mat today, Tom was having a hard enough time just trying to protect himself, let alone fight back against her. As she kept sparring away with him, she couldn’t help but smile when she saw his defenseless expression that grazed across his cheeks.
All of a sudden, there sparring was then cut short, something was up. Some kind of silent alarm was pulled, and both Ashley and Tom’s pagers were going off at a rapid rate. They looked at each other and ran over to see what all the hubbub was about. It said ‘911’ on it. They two of them raced off out of the training facility and ran to the control room. There, they saw the one and only wanted fugitive, Thomas Kroner. He was in the medical facility, beating the shit out of the companies security team. All those civilians cared about was there weapons, they had no real skill like Ashley did to protect themselves.
They knew what had to be done. Of course, being a civilian, Tom was scared shitless to go up against a special like Thomas Kroner. But Ashley saw it more like a challenge in the making. She always did like a challenge. She would be lying if she said she wasn’t the least bit scared, there always was some small percentage of nerves that hidden away deep inside Ashley. But she over came that quickly with a rush of true adrenaline as she ran for the medical facility. Tom went off to get some backup, also known as his technology as Ashley went to face him alone. Or at least she thought she was alone.
She charged in through the opposite side of the medical facility. When she got there, she saw Thomas’ back and he was facing Jeremy, another company agent on the other side of the room. He was probably about to use his powers at this time. Ashley really never looked into what he had for powers, but she did know what Thomas was capable of. She noticed there was a few gallons of water in the corner of the facility. The containers you use for those water bubblers they had all over the place, mostly they are used by football teams and nurses.
She raised her hand and the caps to all the jugs leaped right off the jugs of water in the corner. The quickly blasted out to the sky and formed all together to the ceiling. Ashley looked over at Thomas as she cleared her voice. “Didn’t your Mother ever teach you to play nice?” She asked as she moved the huge amount of water right over Tom Kroner’s head, not caring weather he noticed it or not. There was enough water to drop him to the floor. All she had to do was let go. “Surrender now, and things won’t get dirty.” She said, but it seemed Jeremy was already ahead of her with getting dirty.
