Auroch

Charley Cothran, known publicly as , is a member of the Anchorage Wards.

Personality
Charley is friendly, assertive, and was reasonably confident before her psychotic break. She responds well to authority and interacts well with people in positions above or below her, cape or civilian. She has issues in school work, not giving it the attention it might deserve unless it is a major assignment or final exam. When she was removed from her leadership position in the wards she suffered a massive blow to her confidence and self assurance but seems to have recovered.

Claims to be a music nerd with a liking of loud music, the type that makes bone's rattle. She has recognized leadership abilities, and has a inspiring presence.

Like other Los Angelous wards she likely had to deal with a competitive academic environment.

Parents
She had a good relationship with her father before he died, he taught her to believe in the ideals of the Protectorate.

Director Knox
Her former director in the Los Angeles protectorate department. Knox went out of her way to make sure Charley had a full mental recovery before transferring her to Anchorage.

Appearance
Charley stands 5’11” with an above average build of 165 pounds, wears her brown hair short.

As Auroch she wears a white costume and armor with a stylized bull's helmet. Her costume has gone through several re-branding and redesign attempts but nothing has been satisfactory yet.

Abilities and Powers
Good grasp of leadership as well as tactics.

Charley is capable of generating a inertia manipulating field around her that has a controlled series of effects. One permutation dampens inertia, protecting and slowing things in the area, another accelerates them to prompt faster, less controlled movement. She can affect herself independently of this general effect, with some benefits of a dampening effect to protect her alongside the benefits of an acceleration to give her speed. She can be selective in it's application.

Aura effect manipulates inertia in radius around herself, with positive bias for herself. She was able to slow down Tanya who was rated as a Brute.

Auroch's field disrupts energy and machinery, which tends to fail or work intermittently within her field. It's use visibly distorts light around it. Charley is a second generation cape with her powers being derived from her fathers.

Background
Formerly a resident of Los Angeles with her father, until he died defending Brockton Bay. She then moved in with her mother and mother's boyfriend.

The result of this tragedy caused her confidence and judgement to rapidly degrade, eventually necessitating her removal as team leader.

After her recovery it was decided that she was a important enough asset to be given a second chance and was reassigned to Anchorage PRT Department.

There is speculation it is related to her Agent.
