Angel was ready to write off the whole thing off as a dream. Until she realised that she was now superhumanly nimble and tough with the proportional strength of - well, a teenage girl. But you can't have everything. Angel also gained the ability to create illusions capable of realistic (if temporary) harm and to perceive the inhuman monsters hiding amongst us and other forms of magic. Some of the power seems to reside in the, apparently now indestructable, costume since her powers are greatly diminished without it. After creatively using her newfound powers to defeat a couple of local supervillains, the press stuck Angel with the nickname "Bedevil" and the status of local superhero.

And again Boostorm comes up with a fascinating-sounding character concept that I never would've thought of in a million years! Mine's not as good, but here goes... Angel was an ordinary teenage girl going to an ordinary Halloween party until she inadvertently stumbled into the secret war. When Angel saw what appeared to be a homeless man being mugged in an alleyway she grabbed a nearby length of rusty iron piping and rushed to help. The grievously wounded old man was struggling to fend off two creatures - one terrifyingly beautiful, the other just terrifying. The iron pipe passed through the monstrous creature as though it weren't there. The blow struck to the fair one was glancing, but enough to bring it to its knees. The brief respite bought the old man a chance to bring a staff and amulet to bear. Both creatures exploded swallowing up Angel and her costume in a mixture of crackling magical energy and inhuman blood and ooze. When Angel came to, the old man was gone.

" So, your my charge huh? , well, you could be worse." As this strange man is looking tara up and down she felt her temper rising, she jumped from her seat and tried to charge him, but he just waved his hand and she was back in her seat. he laughed and made an extra chair appear. " your temper is what landed you here little girl, i suggest you curb it or you will never make it" he said with a glare in his eyes. Tara sat a bit scared and asked " what is going on?" The man sat back, looked her up and down then began to explain to her what she was in for, " so, heres the deal, your dead... once a person dies they move foward to a new life, , to be reborn and learn your new lesson, once you have learned all that is needed you move on to a higher plain of existence. you, my dear are between lives, and to move on you must prove you are worthy, seems you lived your life fairly well, but you let your temper control you... the powers that be want you to prove you can live better. cont..

once part of a womans hockey team, Tara was a terror on the ice, they called her the red devil. During one game she was skating towards an apponents player ready to knock them into a wall, the other player moved just on time and tara hit the wall hard, that was the end of her. she ended up in a white room, still in her hockey uniform, suddenly, what sounded like several voices speaking at once called her name, " Tara, you lived your life well, but your rage came out and made you hurt people... if you want to move on to your next life, and thus moving on further to reach heaven we will send you back, but your have to prove you deserve to move forward, you will be a protector, since you were called the red devil, that is what you will stay, prove to us you deserve your next life" tara just sat, not fully understanding, having never believed there was much after death. then, a door opened and in walked a very scruffy man, he was short, a bit pudgy and smoking a cigar...
