Anya Corazon
"Arana"
Name: Anya Sofia Corazon
Nicknames: Spider-girl
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Affiliation: SHIELD, Wed Warriors
Personality: Anya is your typical teenager. She is energetic, out-going, fun loving, and quite charismatic. She is a young woman who seems full of energy and can rarely hold back her excitement or stay still for long. For Anya, she always has to be doing something and always aims to do her hardest at everything that comes her way, whether it's her school, looking out for her father, or her heroics. She is quite upbeat and tends to brighten up a room, seeming to almost always be on the positive side of things even in the thick of a crisis. She also seems to draw people towards her with her out-going nature much less her appearance alone, which many say Anya is strikingly beautiful and her bright personality just reflects that.
But, that doesn't mean Anya doesn't know when she must be serious. In such times, Anya becomes focused and determined knowing her task at hand is always important, especially as her heroic alter ego Arana and school. Such situations could not only mean her future but also her life and others, so she knows most times she must be serious and tends to show a level headed side to the point she is actually quite clever and creative in her thinking, usually having an out-of-the-box thinking process compared to most. She is also bright enough she can be inventive with some gadgets, making use of Spider Bola she created during her tenure with the Spider Society.
Though, Anya is not above being protective and fierce, especially when it comes to the ones she loves and cares for. She will always throw her life on the line to save them or others, especially now that she has abilities of her own that could be put to use for the greater good. But Anya also has a darker side at times, seeming to have a hint of a vengeful, angered side that comes out when the right buttons are pushed or her loved ones are threatened, especially her only remaining parent, her father. Thus, behind her energetic, out-going nature is someone who is always worried and sometimes fears her heroics could put her family in trouble one day.
Appearance: Anya is a young teenager of Mexican/Puerto Rican descent who stands at 5'3" and is lean, lithe, and extremely athletic in build. She has visibly toned muscles due to years of gymnastics with brown hair and eyes. To most she is considered strikingly beautiful, many remarking she resembles her mother for the pictures they see or those who knew her, being an almost mirror image of Sofia. Her clothes tend to lean towards the tom-boyish side with mostly t-shirts, jeans, and shorts, but she does have some leather clothing and work out attire during her times she practices her gymnastics.
As Arana, her suit is a full black, spandex suit that leaves her lower face and hair exposed with white eyes, white spider pattern covering her torso to the abdomen and the legs expanding over her sides, chest, and thighs with white on the shoulders and bottoms of her shoes. As an alternative when this suit needs repairs she has a simple white t-shirt with a red spider logo, black nylon pants, regular sneakers, bulky red and black gloves, utility belt with her Spider Bola clipped to it, and black bug-eyed goggles with yellow lenses. In this get up she tends to have her hair pulled back in a ponytail and in her usual suit.
Family Tree:
Gilbero Corazon (Father)
Sofia Corazon (Mother, Deceased)
History: Anya Corazon was born in Mexico to Gilbero and Sofia Corazon. Anya was still quite young at the time during the time her family was in Mexico, her father working as an investigative journalist while her mother acted as a stay at home mother, though on the side did jobs for the Spider Society as one of their hunters. This wasn't to last however as her father's meddling in a local series of child deaths earned him trouble, to the point when he refused to give up searching for answers their house was set ablaze with Anya's mother inside. Though Anya avoided being harmed due to being at school her father was scared out of town, taking Anya with him to avoid her becoming another victim due to his job.
The two eventually came to settle in Brooklyn, New York just avoiding the worst of the neighborhoods but not by much. There was plenty of those who were shady and always causing trouble while there were some families who looked out for one another, which Anya grew up around but as heavily influenced by her father and the stories of her mother. She recalled little of her mother as she grew and to keep Anya out of trouble Gilbero put her into gymnastics to keep her focused and distracted from potential street problems. Luckily, she took to it quite well, finding herself feeling at home in doing acrobatics and would come to remain with the activity for the next several years from childhood to adolescence.
Eventually, Anya made it to high school without serious incident, mainly the typical issues at school and with friends, growing to be the energetic girl she is currently and even back in her freshman year. Though, it was during this time that one of Anya's good friends was facing an issue with a bully who she stood up against, challenging them to fight under a bridge in Central Park. But the boy wasn't there when Anya arrived, instead there was a fight between two secret societies happening, the Sisterhood of the Wasp and Spider Society through the use of magic. One of the Spider Society, Miguel Leagar, was slightly wounded and was about to be attacked before she jumped in to save him, earning her a severe stab wound to the back of which she passed out from. Though she would vaguely see Miguel teleport the Sisterhood of the Wasp away before transferring some of his own power to her, turning her seemingly into the new Hunter and the next morning she found herself home with a blue spider tattoo on her upper right arm.
Though things were normal for a time and Anya hid her tattoo from her father, it wasn't long before a day after school that the Spider Society approached her, asking her to become their new Hunter against the Sisterhood and to fight crime of which she happily agreed. After two fights though, Anya was taken to the desert to unlock her true potential, initially losing hope that she was truly the Hunter the Spider Society wanted, even becoming full of despair when wolves came to attack. But a vision of her mother telling her she would always be there to help gave Anya new strength and energy, and soon she summoned a blue carapace that allowed her to fight the wolves and eventually Miguel came to get her, taking her back to Brooklyn where she began working for the Spider Society as Arana, Spanish word meaning Spider in honor of her mother's middle name.
For the next two and a half years, Anya operated as a vigilante for the Spider Society and in her own neighborhood, coming to help take on crime and keep the streets safe for the area. Eventually though her father discovered who she was when he became suspicious of the new Arana running around and seemed to coincide with her mysterious disappearances, finally confessing her mother was likewise part of the Society at one point. Though reluctant to see his daughter in such danger he allowed her to continue but when the Spider Society began to bring up their doubts due to no Hunters in the past having Anya's carapace it was discovered Anya was indeed not their Hunter after all, leading Anya to leave and transfer most of her power to Nina Smith, another candidate for the Hunter position which weakened her greatly to her current power set.
After quitting the Spider Society, Anya took a break from her heroics to focus on school and recently finished her junior year of high school. Though it has been in the past three months that she was approached by SHIELD to potentially become a better hero and maybe an agent. Shocked, Anya agreed, feeling it was time to get back into heroics and has recently become part of SHIELD as a junior agent-in-training and one of their heroes with a new suit and learning how to hack and espionage.
Super Powers:
Spider Physiology: Anya is not like most other spider heroes, rather she got her powers from a spell done by her former partner Miguel Leager of the Spider Society imbued to her through a blue spider-shaped tattoo on her upper right arm. As a result, she has been granted the following abilities:
+Superhuman Strength: Despite her young age, Anya is capable of lifting 20 tons without strain, her musculature and skeletal structure being beyond the average human athlete and enabling her to easily go through most metals. But at the moment it is uncertain if this is her full limit or if she is capable of increasing this as she gets older.
+Superhuman Speed: Anya is capable of moving beyond the normal speeds of the finest human athlete, being able to run at a maximum of 30-35 mph.
+Superhuman Stamina: Anya is capable of doing strenuous activities or going for long periods of time without rest before fatigue toxins begin to impair her, going beyond any normal human limits.
+Superhuman Agility: Despite Anya already being at the maximum flexibility for a human due to her gymnastics this is further increased with the fact her agility, balance, and bodily coordination are beyond normal. She is now extraordinarily limber with her tendons and connective tissue being twice as elastic.
+Superhuman Reflexes: Anya has reflexes ten times that of a normal human, allowing her to dodge small caliber bullets, avoid most close quarter attacks, or thrown objects so long as she is aware of them.
+Wall-Crawling: Anya is capable of clinging to just about any surface in the same way as Spider-man, save for the obvious exceptions such as oil, water, or other steep surfaces that prevent this.
+Biological Webbing Generation: Within her wrists, Anya has a spinneret that enables her to make her own organic, silk webbing that is affected by her health and nutrition. These spinnerets are attached to specialized glands that help in it's production and the tips only seen when they are in use. The healthier Anya is the stronger her webbing where as if she was ill or sick the webbing would be weak. But she can weave these webs quite masterfully to form web slings, nets, and other things thanks to quite a bit of practice.
+Spider Carapace: Unique to her spider abilities, Anya can magically summon a strong blue carapace in which increases her strength, durability, and stamina. At will, she can control it's shape, coverage, and thickness to the point she can withstand small caliber bullets and increase her physical prowess.
Weaknesses:
+Anya's powers are magic based, which means someone who has a decent understanding of magic could disrupt her connection to the spider-powers and take the powers away if even temporarily while a powerful magic user could remove them entirely.
+Unlike many spider heroes, Anya does not have a spider sense nor a healing factor, which means she could easily be killed from chemicals, poisons, or most normal means.
+Though Anya's carapace can be an asset it can also lower her speed significantly due to being heavy and must be retracted should she ever be in or near water otherwise she risks drowning. It could also be torn away if someone is capable of doing so or realizing this.
+Anya can face some issues with chemicals, especially those that affect spiders which can weaken her and make her vulnerable.
