Known Superhuman Powers: Switch is a shape shifter, but her power is limited to mimicking the appearance of another. She can also mimic optic patterns, finger prints and voices. She is unable to morph into objects or take on the shape that was not reminiscent of the human form.
Abilities/Special Skills: Switch is a keen gymnast and is a fitness fanatic. As a result, she is very limber and has a higher tolerance and stamina rating than her other team mates. She is also currently training in hand to hand combat and weapons training (the latter is being taught to her by one of the Changeling associates, Ken Shackley).
Weapons Used: Switch is a big fan of knives, but she does use other weapons as well, including fire arms.
Personality: Switch is in love with herself and is highly confident in her abilities. She doesn't like to lose and tends to throw childish temper tantrums when things aren't going her way. She's a very aggressive female and kills without remorse. Highly dangerous and unpredictable. Quite possibly a certified psychopath.
Personal Interests: Switch is obsessed with improving herself and partakes in an intense training & excersise program every day. She adores learning new phsyical skills.
History: Switch was one of five shape shifters recruited by the elusive Mystique for some kind of mysterious plot against Ace and the members of The Wildcards. During the short lived battle, Switch fooled Wildcards member, Sight into thinking she was his vampire team mate, Nocturne and then killed him with a swift stab. Upon Mystique's word, Switch regrouped with the remaining members of the Changeling team and fled.
Since then she and Ken Shackley took the job (along with many others) to find and capture the Extremist, Black. They failed and then Ken went missing leaving Switch on her own. Switch stayed in Ken's tiny London hideout until he returned a few days later.
