Name: Ms. Alleyway (Aaliyah Brown)

Age: 20's

Race: African American

Bio: In the night, a terrifying vigilante stalks. Her name is Ms. Alleyway.

Aaliyah Brown was born poor in the city of Whampolis her life was one misfortune after another. Her parents died at a young age, leaving her brother as her sole caretaker. Despite their hardships, her brother Alex Brown did everything in his power to not only protect her but the homeless from crime and the corruption of the rich.

Sadly, one day he went missing. Aaliyah didn't know what happened to him but assumed the people he pissed off finally caught up to him. At the age of sixteen, she was forced to make it on her own. For the next three years, she lived in a pathetic stupor, her only friend being Lucía back when she lived on the street. At the age of nineteen a group of gangsters robbed a homeless shelter that she was staying at.

Tired of injustice, she sprung into action. Robbing a gangsters of their clothes and going in as Ms. Alleyway… and she immediately got herself squished. Humiliated, she went deeper into depression, considering herself worthless and thought about throwing in the towel immediately. That was until she met someone.

A strange figure by the name of Branch entered her life. Another homeless woman in her seventies. She was a good martial artist in her day and was once a superhero herself. She didn't have powers, but she had the perfect weapon against the barrage of elastic super beings. The pinpoint touch.

Learning of this, Aaliyah begged the old master to train her. Branch agreed and what followed was a grueling one year training regiment that allowed her to master the Pinpoint Touch. With this ability, she was able to make those gangsters pay, and stopped their extortion racket.

She now continues to fight crime, protecting the poor and homeless against the rich and corrupt.

In her civilian form, she's good friends with Lucía even if they don't see each other as much anymore. Although, their superhero identities clash a bit with Megahammer seeing her as a bit extreme (which is a lot coming from her.) They also don't know each other's secret identity.

The few in the superhero community who know of her, see her as a psychotic maniac so she doesn't really play nice with most heroes.

Powers: less powers, but more like a fighting technique. The pinpoint touch has the special ability to freeze someone's abilities, this includes simple movement and even powers. Branch was even able to use this ability to completely shut off the abilities of of T.F leaguers and even elastic powered individuals, although Ms. Alleyway has not had the opportunity to try this on those individuals. She can also use this to compress and inflate individuals, mainly when they're in object form.

Because she's too poor to actually have gadgets. She generally uses the criminals she beats up as her crime fighting tools. She usually will keep them for about a few days or, for the unlucky ones, a few months depending on the space between her missions. After getting new gear she delivers the old gear to prison.
