Special Abilities
Aspen's unique heritage provides her with amazing powers. Like all Blue, she can manipulate water, but since she is also a Black she can do this to a much greater degree than other Blue's. She can instantly form massive waves and tsunami's without even thinking about it, as well as control the oceans if storms or other things cause them to become destructive. Her powers doesn't only work on a large scale though, she can form water into solid shapes or even make it sturdy enough to walk on. Aspen can control all liquid, allowing her to even change the flow of blood in someone's body or rip it out to kill them.
She can change her physical body into water, letting it disperse and being able to pull herself back together. She also has the potential for massive amounts of ice control, though it hasn't been shown yet. As a Black she is capable of healing wounds (even fatal ones), shooting blasts of energy from her hands and becoming energy herself. She has been shown to have had her body destroyed and to remake it out of energy and water. She also has telepathy, but she's only used it with the Blacks, who are telepaths themselves.
Aside from her powers, Aspen is physically in great condition. Even before she knew about her powers, she was an Olympic swimmer and always kept in shape. Her basic biology is slightly different than other humans in that she has some additional brain tissue, her red-cell density is twice the average, she has the more flexible bone structure of someone still growing, and she naturally has 5 times the lung capacity of an Olympic swimmer. Aspen is also very intelligent and extremely knowledgeable about things involving water and the ocean thanks to her extensive education and experience as a marine biologist.

Weaknesses
When not using her abilities to defend herself by turning her flesh into an organic water form, Aspen is pretty much the same as being a human. Anything can hurt, touch, or damage her. Once she severely damaged, her abilities may not be able to fully heal her. The attack that can do the most damage to Aspen, in any form, is that of mental abilities. Her mind is very weak to mental attacks, and it would be easy to take control of her.
History [Spoilers][/size]
Aspen Matthews is caught between two worlds. During her early adolescence, she could remember nothing from her early childhood. In her earliest memories she is on the cruise ship Paradise, thought to have been lost for ten years. She was adopted by Captain Matthews, a US Navy captain, and soon developed a passion for water, running to the nearest beach every day to enjoy her favorite recreations of swimming and surfing. She actively pursued this passion and showing tremendous aptitude eventually joined the US Olympic Swimming Team. She trained hard and was chosen to compete in the Olympic Games. However she was eliminated as she tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs despite never having taken any. This effectively ended Aspen's professional swimming career, so she chose to study marine biology. Aspen has recently begun to remember bits of her early childhood, including a memory with her mother talking to a member of the mysterious race known as the Black.
Aspen continued to study marine biology, graduating as a marine biologist. Eventually, she was invited to participate in a deep underwater research station called Deep Marine Discovery (DMD). The primary goal of the DMD was to study a strange alien ship that seemed to have a symbiotic relationship with the surrounding water. Aspen also learns that the DMD was holding a strange alien man named Killian, who had voluntarily surrendered himself. However Aspen did not have much time to study him, as the DMD was suddenly torpedoed by mistake. Killian freed himself, and attempted to abduct Aspen. However, a strange figure intervened and saved Aspen.
After the event at the DMD, from which she was one of the few survivors, Aspen's life began to grow much more complicated. Admiral Maylander discovered that while her anatomy was somewhat similar is not human. Aspen also encountered Chance Calloway, a naval fighter pilot and shooter of the torpedo. Although she scorned him at first, they developed a mutual degree of respect. Later Aspen was abducted and seduced by Killian who told her that she was one of the Blue, a race of underwater people living in hiding from Humanity. Aspen was also an Elite Blue, meaning she could not only breathe underwater, but also manipulate it to her will. She was persuaded to help set up a number of battle stations in a plan to conquer the human race. The battle stations eventually activated the Blue Sun, a weapon-satellite capable of sending a massive energy beam. The beam was used to penetrate the ocean floor.
Eventually, the enigmatic Cannon Hawke rescued Aspen away from Killian and his dissidents, who were molding her into their weapon of hatred. He enlightened Aspen of the largely peaceful Blue culture, and the need of stopping Killian's plans. With the help of Cannon and Chance, she did thwart Killian's plan, and in the process tapped into her deeper powers, which were far more powerful than anyone could have imagined.
Although Aspen did experience some well-deserved down time after the events surrounding the Blue Sun, she was soon abducted by yet another enigmatic race of underwater people, the Black. They took her to the bottom of the ocean, where she meets her biological father, Ragher, himself a Black. This explained her extraordinary ability to manipulate water. Rahger tried to sway Aspen towards the Black point of view and to use her in their own plans for Humanity. However, tired of being manipulated, Aspen rejects his efforts and leaves the Black. Choosing her own way she returns to the surface.
Upon Aspen's return, she discovers that Humanity has learned of the Blue's existence, and that humanity is on the verge of war with the Blue. Unsure what to do, she tracks down Chance Calloway, and the two outsmart the US government. The two also realize that they have feelings towards each other. Now, Aspen intends to rejoin Cannon Hawke and the rest of the Blue. With her memories returning, Aspen becomes aware of and finds her biological brother, Finn. Finn was the water being who saved Aspen from the clutches of Killian back at the DMD.

Sample Role-Play Post[/size]
The water was warm at this time, during the sunset. Having the orange sunlight reflect against the water helped to create the effect of warmth. It was like swimming in... warm water. Nothing else could compare to that feeling, it wasn't too cold to even touch; or too warm to even stand near. The perfect temperature for the water. That didn't matter though, because Aspen could control the water around her. She was used to cold water, warm water, hot water; all that stuff, because her life was practically living in the water.
A smile spread across her face as the water rushed past her flowing hair. Swirling around, she created a water sensation, which had a pretty effect to it. Faster, faster, she swam for the top of the water; which was actual air. Using all her strength, she leaped up out of the water and felt the cold air against her moist skin. There was nothing else to do, so why not enjoy life when you have the time?
Now, Aspen was speeding towards the sandy beach in front of her. It was time to dry off and maybe even get some sleep on the quiet beach. This was the beach that Aspen found to always be open, and never have anyone around. It was good in a sense, it gave her time to think about things. Oh, but right now she didn't want to think about anything, she just wanted to relax.
