Physical Description: Tunde is a classic Teutonic beauty. She has thick blond hair, blue eyes, and a wholesome, fresh-faced look to her. She usually wears comfortable, classic clothing and no makeup, with her hair in a single braid. She is surprisingly tall for a female, and in excellent physical condition.
Personality: Tunde tends to be rather quiet and calm, hard to ruffle, and usually on an even keel. She tends to look on the bright side, though she usually keeps her thoughts to the practical. Tunde is willing to be a little zany with a close friend, but most people tend not to see that. She is also organized, efficient, and generally easy to get along with.
Capabilities
Skills: Tunde is a reasonably well-educated woman, as well as an Olympic silver medal swimmer. She has also taken up karate, due to a shoulder injury.
Ascendancy: She can emit an unbearable scream on two levels, given proper conditions exist. She has to be able to be standing upright, get enough oxygen to sustain a scream, with earplugs in her own ears so she doesn't suffer any ill effects. The first level scream is audible to humans, enough to temporarily deafen after five seconds, disorient after ten, and knock out after fifteen. This also breaks glass and blows out sound equipment. Her second cannot be heard by people, and it is enough to kill, though she cannot sustain it for long enough to do anything more than knock the listeners unconscious.
Weakness: Though she has incredibly strong lungs and fine-tuned vocal chords, Tunde is completely tone-deaf and couldn't sing a line to save her life.
Service Record
Tunde was born in Austria, to an older couple who had conceived her via fertility drugs. She was their only child, and thus the one to realize all her parents' faded dreams. Her father had been an athlete in his younger days, and forced her into every sport he could find a coach for. Luckily for him, he enrolled her in swimming lessons, ostensibly to keep her "from drowning someday", and was surprised when she actually took to it. They nurtured this talent in her, and she started going to the pool every chance she could.
Things went well for awhile, until Tunde was thirteen, and ended up arguing with her father in the car. She got so upset that she screamed her heart out, only to open her eyes to see her parents passed out in the front seat. As Tunde scrambled to the front seat to grab the wheel, the car smashed into a tollbooth. Both her parents were dead on impact, and Tunde got off with a few broken bones and bruised ribs.
She decided not to focus on this too much.
Instead, she kept at her swimming all through high school, and ended up making the Olympic team at age sixteen. She finally earned a silver medal at the age of twenty, and went on to continue training for the next, while she was going to school for kinesiology. She also met another young athlete, Klaus Engelmann, and they struck up a fast friendship. The gossip around the sports world was that they were secretly dating, though both Tunde and Klaus knew that was completely absurd, for various personal reasons on Klaus' behalf.
There came a time when Tunde told Klaus about herself, what she was capable of and what she had done to her family. Klaus was surprisingly supportive, and took her to the Skygate Institute for testing. She came back positive, and decided to enroll at the University of Anglia for her PhD.
