Description History: Shela was created at the time of the Obscurite invasion due to the massive rips in the small, localized area of universe. Several elements are constantly at play in any given place at any given time, and should there be a massive disturbance in a focused area, some of these elements can "leak" out. Shela is one of these "leaks," but more specifically she is the physical manifestation of Speed and Progress that was so prevalent in Layen's advanced society. She spent most of her time in Layen being forced to the sidelines and observing all of her work go to ruin until recently where she's banded with local survivors to make a difference.

Personality: Shela is almost always upbeat. She rarely spends time dwelling in the past and prefers to look more to the future and what it will bring. She is extremely curious and tends to horde interesting items in local stashes she makes. She is often opposed to conflict since it's hard to find her angry enough to engage in it. When she is presented with potentially harmful situations, her first instinct is to flee, but if she is absolutely cornered she may resort to using her daggers and her speed to whittle away at her attacker enough to let her leave.

Ability:
*Amorphous Solid- Shela is a sentient "goo" of sorts. She can melt, stretch, squeeze, inflate, splatter, or anything else you can imagine doing with a substance of such a consistency. This form also allows her to take one of two shapes: humanoid (woman specifically), or "puddle" where there is a clearly defined head, limbs, and torso that sprout from a puddle wherever she happens to be. This puddle form also allows her to stick to inclined, vertical, and inverted surfaces. Do note that she can only fit through openings that her third eye can. Any goo separated from her can be retracted at will so long as it isn't completely blocked from her 3rd eye's reach.

*3rd Eye- Unlike most depictions of 3rd eyes, this red emblem on her forehead cannot see, read minds, perform telekinesis, or anything else you may have heard. Instead, this "eye" is what holds her together in the physical plane and is the primary source of her substance. Its structure is close to that of polished stone and its red interior can be see through its translucent exterior. If this structure is destroyed, Shela will cease to exist. That being said, she is extremely protective of this eye and prefers not to let others touch it for fear it may become damaged. (this eye will regenerate any destroyed goo over a long period of time, or one Liter per week, so she tried to keep as much with her as she can)

*Storage- While not really an ability, she can use her body as one giant pocket to keep various items with her in easy reach. The most common method of storage and retrieval is by "eating" the item and coughing it back up. Since she lacks the ability to actually eat, this does nothing to the item. Other methods of storage and retrieval can be just grabbing the item in question and wraping her hand over it until it is completely covered.

Final Notes: Shela's goo based structure is very resilient to impact and cutting based damage, meaning bullets, blades, and bludgeons do little to harm the closer to the third eye the damage is done. (more orange=more resilient) If a dark patch of her is attacked, it will dissipate on impact. Eventually she will have very little of herself to draw from to defend herself. Regardless of the distance from her head the goo is, she can be very sensitive to other liquids, heat, cold, electricity, large concussive blasts can be very effective at crippling or even killing her.

Heat- Causes poor formation and structural integrity of goo. (she unwillingly melts, and the go and be destroyed with extreme heat)
Cold- Causes higher viscosity and even solidification of goo. (she's slower or simply freezes)
Liquids- Causes poor formation and structural integrity of goo along with decreased ability to recall goo. (she becomes diluted and it becomes difficult to keep herself together)
Electricity- Causes impaired motor skills and even paralysis. (she is unable to control spasms of movement, or even unable to move at all)
Concussive Blasts- Causes sensory overload and temporary loss of cognitive function. (she can be knocked out cold by explosions)
