Several months ago in a different thread (https://community.cbr.com/showthread...=1#post5056761) I proposed that Mystique and Destiny should have a child, who would take the nom de guerre of Rose Raven. With a tip of the hat to Sutekh, who perfectly fleshed out Rose Raven's powers, my "chimera" is all the easier to make:


*Destiny

*Mystique

*Darwin

Sanguine

Sanguine lives on the streets, or, more commonly, in the apartment of whomever she's drained to the point of unconsciousness and mind-wiped into remembering her only as 'that awesome babe I hooked up with last night!' She remembers her family, ever so vaguely, and kinda resents them for naming her Bebe, among other things, but finds the memories of her childhood increasingly fuzzy, and sometimes, downright wrong, with strange conflicting details, such playing in the snow in the backyard, and tracing her fingers along frost-patterns, and the old cast-iron stove in the corner, despite *also* remembering growing up in Florida and not ever really seeing snow...

She is afraid that all of the memories that she has been leeching off of her victims is beginning to confuse her own true memories, but the truth is far more sinister.

In any event, she's appears as a lithe young woman in her late teens or early 20s, who wears far too much mascara and affects a 'goth' look, even when it is increasingly out of fashion. Her eyes are dark brown, almost black, but when she is actively detecting life-force, which she can choose not to, but rarely does, they burn like ruddy coals, so she usually wears shades to conceal this 'feature.' Her brown and white hair is dyed flat black and spiked upwards, and her skin is pale from a life lived entirely at night, frequenting any sort of hotspots where she can 'score some action.'

She is a common sight in these venues, and many a man remembers her as being a 'sure thing,' although they often find themselves instinctively shying away from a second taste, since they may have forgotten, but their bodies remember the toll her last visit took upon them, and muscle memories never forget. When she finds a sucker to take her home, she never lets him past first base, engaging her mutant power in the form of a crimson blade of energy that extends from her fingertips. Thrusting this blade into the unsuspecting would-be suitor, she taps into his life-energies, draining them into herself and giving her a rush like no other. At the same time, she often connects to his mind, removing all memories of how their little tryst ended, leaving her romeo unconscious on the bed while she helps herself to whatever is in his fridge, and watches TV until near sunrise, when she saunters out, fed and sated.

She has developed the ability to fling these blades of energy at people, but they lack the intensity that she can bring to bear at touch range, and they do not convey any sort of vital essence to her, only causing it to 'leak out' and be lost. She has recently discovered that her 'blades' seem to affect machinery as well, draining energy from them as readily as a living target, much to her surprise, but she has become psychologically addicted to the whole process of hunting and feeding and preying upon the minds and bodies of her victims, thinking of herself as some form of vampire, that her actions are necessary and that she will die if she does not 'feed' in this manner. As a result of this belief, she hasn't yet really processed the notion that she can drain a car battery to the same effect, and never actually 'hunt' people again.
