Brief Power Description: Can determine how and when a person dies through physical contact . This power lasts for about 5 to 10 seconds, allowing Janet to see glimpses of the day in which someone she sees die. Though sometimes a chain of unexplainable events will alter these predictions, making none of her visions definite.
Brief Description of Character:
Toned in all the right places, Janet stands at about 5’9 with short hair about ear length and brown skin that resembles the essence of honey. Her high cheek bones make her look as if though she were always smiling, and her deep brown eyes are hypnotizing. Janet has got the attitude that even a sailor wouldn’t want to approach. She is a lighthearted person although her morals are often grey, usually keeping only her safety in mind over others. Still with regrets that she left her husband and young son on there own many years ago, Janet tries to move forward with her life.
Brief Description of History:
Janet Linda Marshall was trapped in the foster system since birth. She never got to know what it felt to be in a stable home or have stable loving parents. It’s safe to say that as Janet grew up, she mimicked these events in her life, never fully committing to anything in her life - whether it be friendships or relationships. As a teen Janet’s ability manifested, allowing her to see glimpse of those she touched die. The first couple of years in her teenage era was hell to go through, but as she grew older she discovered that there were perks to this ability of hers. Soon, she found herself getting in relationships, even marrying, men that she saw would die in the near future. Though before they died, she made sure that her late spouses signed all their worthy possessions and money over to her. It’s safe to say that this way of getting in and out of relationships was an easy perk. Even when authority got suspicious of all the near deaths of the men she dated/married, they had no proof to convict her.
Though all of that changed when she met with her next husband to be, Jamal Payne II - not even the knowledge of his death bothered her. For the first time in a long time, Janet had finally fallen in love. It was also with Jamal that Janet had bore her first child…but the pregnancy was a nightmare. As every month passed, she would catch a glimpse of her baby’s death as a man. For nine months, almost everyday of the week, Janet had to witness her son trying to protect her and ultimately getting killed…but in a surprising twist…she saw her body lifeless beside him. That’s when it hit her; as long as she was around her child, she ran the risk of getting them both killed. She couldn’t have that on her coincidence.
After Travis was born, Janet left both her child and her husband, hoping they would be protected. Years passed and Janet grew miserable and lonely, no longer looking for the comfort of dying men. She did eventually remarry and have another son, but she left just as fast as she came, feeling that was betraying her love for her previous family. It wouldn’t be too soon that she met up with Richard Brewster, the man who would keep her captive in a holding cell made for specials. It was here that Janet realized where she was. It was here that Janet remembered the images from those nine months of labor.
