Enchantress

Character Name: Sylvie Odindottir (She/Her)
Alias: Enchantress
Civilian: Usually more gender-neutral, modest, and professional to pass unnoticed.

Costume: Usually more feminine and revealing, deliberately playing up the femme fatale angle of Enchantress.

Powers:
Shapeshift: True to Loki's mythology and unlike her 616 counterpart, Sylvie is an incredibly versatile shapeshifter, able to physically adopt the forms of many different people and creatures. This leads to many secondary powers, such as a potent healing factor as she can simply "shift" non-lethal wounds away, as well as the ability to gain physical traits befitting her forms. However, the further she shapeshift away from a humanoid baseline, the more difficult it is to capture the creature's internal structure, and the more likely the form is just appearances.

Enchantment: Sylvie can enchant people and take over their minds entirely, make them see what she wants them to see and do what she wants them to do. While this sounds very powerful, it's not actually as useful as the proper magic of her 616 counterpart, because of the following restriction: (1) Sylvie or an enchanted subject must make direct physical contact with the target - any clothing and such will block the contact; (2) she can only enchant one subject at a time, and if she enchants a new target, the previous one is released immediately; (3) while most normal humans can easily be enchanted to do simple task that doesn't put themselves at immediate risk and doesn't go directly against their personal beliefs, anyone who can become a superhero or villain likely have much stronger willpower even if they don't have superpowers, so Sylvie will have to dig up their memory and construct a kind of virtual reality to coax them into doing anything at all, which would also leave herself physically vulnerable at time. In short, she doesn't like doing it.

Staff of Illusions: Despite its appearance, this scepter does not contain an infinite stone or anything to that effect; instead, it's a "mundane" magical item of Asgardian-make, able to conjure up illusions based on simple prompts like "what this person desires the most" or "what these people fear the most". Unfortunately, due to the nature of the Staff, the user has no actual control about the exact details of the illusion it conjures or see the illusions personally, so Sylvie will just have to infer based on the reaction of the target and whatever she knows about them.

Helmet of the Horned One: This helmet protects against mental attacks, can be used to gorge enemies in a pinch, and is stylish as fuck.

Skills:
Lying: But of course. All Lokis lie. However, instead of lying with the intention to manipulate or disarm someone's guard, Syvlie is more adapted at sowing discontent or pretending to be someone else, due to her powers and upbringing.

Hand-to-Hand Combat: While by no means an expert, Sylvie is a better hand-to-hand combatant and swordswoman than most other versions of Lokis, due to her penchant to solve problem through brute force instead of manipulation.

Hacking: They say the 21st century is the age of information; they're wrong. It's the age of manipulation, and no one appreciates the sheer potential for trickery in technology more than the god(dess) of mischief herself.

Weaknesses: Anger management, and how. Unlike many other Lokis, Sylvie's biggest personal flaw is neither selfishness nor ambition, but a short temper and a long memory for grudges.

Character Biography: Sylvie Odindottir was supposed to be the prince of giants, until one day she told her father that she'd rather be a princess instead. While Sylvie was able to escape her father's rage, she became a homeless wanderer in the 9 worlds for a while, until she was adopted by Odin the Allfather. Having transformed himself into a woman for the sake of knowledge on at least one occasion, Odin understands Sylvie much better than most others could, and raised her as his daughter. While her brother Thor learned the way of the warriors and kings from their Father, Sylvie picked up the art of shapeshifting and enchantment from their mother, Frigg the Enchantress. However, all goods thing come to an end when Odin banished Thor to Earth for the son's youthful hubris, and Sylvie stole a few items from the Asgardian treasury before following her dear brother to Midgard in a fit of rage and defiance. Once there, she realized that Midgard is very different from what the Asgardians remembered, and it very much needs someone willing to mess it up a bit before it can be made better, which she intends to help with under the name of Enchantress.
