[Physical Avatar]

Anna Baker, despite her rather normal Caucasian appearance, is actually the physical avatar of an ancient grimoire. After being soaked in magic, of nearly every kind humanly imaginable, for untold ages the book of magic in question eventually developed a mind of its own. From there it found a way to utilize magic in and of itself and the ability to project a physical avatar to carry and act for it. Currently, however, the grimoire is stored on Isolate Island under a powerful seal.

Terrence is the son of a famous african-american martial artist. His father was killed when he was just a child. Raised by his godfather, a descendant of the famous Wong Fei-Hung, he returned to his hometown of Chicago, opening a small medical practice. Upset by the massive amounts of corruption in Illinois, he disguised himself as the "Black Monkey", and fought corruption by himself. Becoming something of a folk hero to the people of Illinois, the Posthuman suffered a major popularity hit when she apprehended him for breaking her code.

[Flight]

As near as anybody has been able to determine, Charlotte Chapman has never been human. Nobody actually knows how she ended up in a state run orphanage, but what is known is that, up until the age of thirteen, she appeared to be a normal, if unusually bright child with a somewhat unusual fascination with fire. Then she got into an argument with a friend and caused a tree to explode in a big, ruinous fireball. Fortunately, nobody was hurt, but after that point, it became clear that Charlie was not a normal person. For a start, she apparently stopped aging.

Specialist examinations revealed that Charlie wasn't even human at all, but instead a bound spirit, closely affiliated with fire and heat. Just why an unknown mage bound such a spirit into a facsimile of a human child, without access to its powers until the binding weakened far enough isn't understood, but it is clear that the spirit Charlie was 'made' from is far, far older than 25 years. Whatever memories or thoughts said spirit might have or retain are hidden behind the slowly decaying binding that keeps Charlie 'human', however.

Oberst Geist was once a soldier of the German Democratic Republic who died during an ill-fated military strike against a known subversive capitalist and supervillain known as the Schwarzenschnitter. The attack ended in failure, with the majority of his unit killed and made into the necromancer's immortal servants, though Geist put his superior intellect to work and managed to outmaneuver his immortal foe through the ruins of the nameless East German town that he had made into his necropolis, before landing a telling blow on the villain's phylactery.

Cursed by the creature's final words and forever changed by the blast of necrotic energy that followed Schwarzenschnitter's death, Oberst Geist served his country honorably for the decades after. When the Posthuman put forward her Posthuman Code, Geist was one of those who refused, wanting to intervene on the decline of the Soviet bloc and was subsequently incarcerated by the Posthuman. When she completed her prison, he was subsequently moved into space and has spent all of his time since, smoldering in isolation.
