Character Info
Profile
An employee, victim and minion of Mojo, she has recently been banished to Earth and forced to make her own way in the world as a wandering six armed sorceress swordswoman. Unfortunately her abrasive, unstable personality, terrible reputation and inability to make many friends are going to make it quite hard.
Timeline
Timeline:
* 1992 : Born Rita Wayword, in Los Angeles.
* 2013 : Starts working as a stuntwoman in
Hollywood. As time goes by gets a solid reputation as a professional in her field, sticks with it
for a few years.
* 2018 : While on the set of a movie, exposed to a mutant, and attacked by
extradimensional invaders from the Mojoverse. Defeats them. Later in 2018 joins a counterattack to
unseat Mojo, and vanishes from Earth history.
???? : The captured Rita Wayword is transformed
into Spiral by Mojo and his chief scientist Arize, spending an unknown amount of time being trained
in sorcery and cybernetics, not to mention mutated.
* 2015 ish : First sightings of Spiral on
Earth, associated with Mojo's plans, and also for those in the know the pro-priestess of the Body
Shop, selling cybernetic expertise to the highest bidder.
* 2018 : Defeated by Rita Wayword and
others in Los Angeles, retreats to the Mojoverse and is eventually pursued, but ends up capturing
Rita and driving the other heroes off with Mojo's help, rather than being defeated.
* 2020 :
Escapes the Mojoverse after some sort of disagreement with her boss. Is banished / flees to Earth,
temporarily at least independent.
( There's no original Rita Wayword in this timeline any
more, she vanished in 2018. Though I suppose if Spiral came back, a Rita could also come back too
and coexist again. Time travel, it's all so confusing... ).
IC Journal
{{{ICJournal}}}
Personality
Bitter:
She might not actually remember her own history very well. But she is at least somehow reminded
of it in glimpses whenever she encounters something that she encountered in her skewed past. It
tends to make her angry and lash out at things, but there's also a vulnerability there, on some
level remembering a happier, two armed time.
Dramatic:
Spiral has had a long career in the movies, in one way or another, and has a flair for drama.
Whether it be a pithy comeback or an overly dramatic speech, fundamentally she likes to put on a
show, even if it is quite often at the expense of other people.
Rebellious:
Despite being a sidekick for much of her existence, Spiral is not naturally given to be
accepting of authority. When forced to do so by a greater force she's makes for a particularly
snarky minion, though she rarely goes as far as outright defiance, instead taking out her annoyance
on her as-directed opponents. When given her freedom, she tends to do her own thing, even at the
cost of legality or comfort, at least partly because she finds it impossible to really relate to
people in her alien state.
Unpredictable:
Spiral's has been through a lot. Originally actually of heroic inclination, her mind has since
been forcibly evolved to perceive other dimensions, and then for an unknown amount of time she was
enslaved by Mojo. Her attitude varies from outright villainy - generally under Mojo's influence - to
simply wanting to survive, to even, in rare cases, having a genuinely protective bond with someone.
Character Sheet
Powers
Alien Body:
Spiral's six arms are each fully functional and she can use each one with equal dexterity,
whether it be using six swords at once, or as part of an elaborate and intricate dance routine. Her
physical abilities - strength, speed and toughness in particular - are mildly supernormal thanks to
a combination of genetic tweaking and cybernetics.
Immune To Possession:
Spiral's warped mind is seemingly immune to effects that control her mind or steal her
powers.
Spiral Magic:
Her primary power, Spiral is a powerful sorceress with a particular affinity for dimensional
magic. Her spells are always controlled by movements of her many hands, sometimes forming part of an
elaborate dance routine. While she has considerable power, the more powerful the spell, the longer
it takes to cast, and sometimes requires her to be holding her swords. Her signature spells
include...
* Teleportation, especially. Her main power, she's often used as transport for
other people. Though she resents being a glorified taxi cab.
* Manipulating energy
*
Invisibility
* Magical disguises
* Shape shifting
* Energy shields
* Stunning or
paralysing her victims, though her spells have to actually hit them to do so
* Removing
superhuman abilities
* Creating small pocket dimensions and accessing them
* While working
for Mojo she can channel his own power, becoming capable of greater feats such as easy
interdimensional and possibly even time travel. Her magic also generally becomes more powerful
across the board.
Spiral is also aware through some mystical means whenever her name is
mentioned - including somehow filtering out mundane uses of the word 'spiral'.
Skills
Expert Swordfighter:
Spiral would be a deadly swordswoman if she just had two arms, but with six fully coordinated
ones, she's beyond deadly. She's generally capable of handling multiple deadly combatants at the
same time in physical combat.
Genius:
Spiral has a twisted genius and has been trained in alien science. Her skills particularly focus
on the use and abuse of cybernetics and genetic engineering - she takes a certain relish in doing to
other people what was done to her, especially when they come to her willingly, not fully
appreciating the cost. She also has considerable, if specialised, magical knowledge, especially
concerned with magic that controls, crosses and creates otherworldly dimensions and pocket
universes.
Stuntwoman:
She was once a professional and sought after stuntwoman. While she rarely has to crash a car in
a spectacular fashion as a movie requires, she's still capable of doing it.
Resources
Body Shop:
Spiral has access to the Body Shop, a sort of bazaar of scientific gadgets and toys especially
concerned with cybernetics and biotechnology. She has used this in the past to turn people into
superpowered cyborgs, usually charging great sums to do so. She can also fix people, either cyborgs
or not, if she has access to her Shop.
Swords:
She possesses two swords of alien metal. These are stronger than any (conventional...) earthly
metal.
Weaknesses
Bad Rep:
Thanks to past escapades plenty of people have a reason not to like Spiral. While generally the
worst stuff was as a result of her being an agent of Mojo, people might not be too discriminating
about that - especially if was them or someone close to them that Spiral screwed over.
Broke:
Currently having "escaped" from Mojo and dumped on Earth, she has nothing. Aside from the Body
Shop and her personal possessions (clothes, swords...) she's got very little. It's not like she can
or has the personality to get a bank account and a job. Her interactions with mundane resources are
limited to the basics - food to eat, somewhere to lair, the end. And no minions.
Mojo:
She is ultimately a slave of Mojo. Sometimes her attitude means he banishes her to Earth, but he
can just as easily re-enslave her again. Her powers are derived from his, and she cannot directly
stand against him.
Outcast:
With six arms and and a shattered mind, she won't be fitting into human society ever again. Her
personality is such that she always considers herself an outcast even if people are accepting of her
appearance (and her past). If she found herself in a team of some sort she would be the most
unhelpful, snarky and unmotivated member of it, though she has formed bonds with individuals in the
past on a one on one basis.
Reckless:
Throwing all cares to the wind is probably the main reason why she has been defeated so many
times in the past, with divided loyalties as the close second.
