Fleur

Fleur, whose civilian name was Jess , was part of New Wave until her death, which damaged New Wave's hopes of becoming a nation-wide movement.

Personality
She was affectionate and kind, working well with the group.

Lightstar and New Wave
Her death caused him to leave the team and enter witness protection.

His nieces and nephews saw her as an aunt.

Appearance
Young and black-haired, she wore a Fleur-de-lis symbol in black on her chest.

Abilities and Powers
Fleur could create telekinetically controlled 'orbs' of light that looked like flowers or firecrackers. She could plant these orbs with a touch on surfaces, allowing them to grow over time for larger and more varied effects when Fleur detonates them or an opponent accidentally touches them.

Her power needed her hands free to use.

Background
Fleur was a member of the Brockton Bay Brigade. Lady Photon considered her too young to have kids, and in the wrong place in her life. The Brockton Bay Brigade would challenge Marquis numerous times, though Marquis would always win.

Fleur accompanied the Brockton Bay Brigade when they went after Marquis in his home and closed in on him. After Lightstar was wounded, she caught him before he could fall onto Marquis' bone spikes before she tended to his injuries.

Fleur later revealed her civilian identity alongside her teammates.

Was there when the Brigade finally captured Marquis.

Boston Games
Fleur participated in the Boston Games, engaging and nearly overwhelming Damsel of Distress before the villainess escaped.

Later
While in her civilian identity, Fleur was killed by a kid looking to bolster his reputation and earn membership into Empire Eighty-Eight. Her death occurred at the peak of New Wave's rising popularity, at a point when the team and the idea of capes with public identities and full accountability was a topic of nationwide discussion, and thus received a great deal of media and public attention.

After her death, New Wave lost much of its initial momentum, with her boyfriend Lightstar taking a new identity and leaving New Wave. Victoria Dallon thought Fleur's murderer wouldn't earn membership into Empire Eighty-Eight because of his cowardly behavior in court. However, she admits that she was wrong as he was not tried as an adult, got out in short order, and was welcomed with open arms by Empire Eighty-Eight.
