Character's Name: Jinx
Character's Age: Late teens
What form will your character's NV take? I think it will be Jinx’s HIVE communicator. It’s probably the best option since she may not break it subconsciously.
Abilities
Character's Canon Abilities:
Jinx has the ability to control probability in a negative favor. Because of that, she also has a good sixth sense for when bad things are about to happen. She brings bad luck, usually with great precision, but her abilities are strongly affected by her emotions. When she is angry or upset, things big and small tend to explode, break, catch on fire, spontaneously combust and just go plain bad. Her abilities manifest themselves in visible telekinetic waves, a glowing of her hands and eyes, and electric sparks: a trademark shade of neon fuchsia. She has also been seen to have some elemental control with her “hexes” like creating whirlwinds to knock people down, lighting things on fire, causing rifts in the earth, or large waves that engulf things. She can cause things to rust, fall apart, short circuit, come undone, crack, explode, implode, break, cut, malfunction, ect. Jinx can also cause other people’s abilities to backfire or misfire. But with her abilities, sometimes she bites off more than she can chew. Being so powerful, she gets carried away, bad things happen around her all the time without her conscious control, and sometimes she just cannot stop herself from taking down a building if her temper strikes. She is skilled in hand-to-hand combat, enough to take down the Teen Titans without abilities. She is also a capable gymnast, able to bend, move, jump and flip fast enough to dodge beam weapon bursts. The girl is fast in more ways than one. In short, she’s a disaster in the process of happening.

Character History:
Throughout the series, it seems that Jinx has a few major motivations: riches, fame, and respect. If she needs to rob a museum, destroy large pieces of public property, and beat heads into walls to gain those things, so be it. Instead of being the good guy who always finishes last, she decided to take a much more fun route to getting everything she could ever want. Villainy. The girl is recorded as attending boarding schools for villains almost her entire life such as Dark Wave Prep, The Junior H.I.V.E. Academy, and the world famed Hierarchy of International Vengeance and Extermination Academy for Extraordinary Young People (The H.A.E.Y.P. for short.)
At the H.A.E.Y.P. she was the best of the best, and led a team of herself and two other teens: Gizmo and Mammoth. On the day she was supposed to graduate from the academy, her team was hired by a villain named Slade to take down the Teen Titans. At first, they flawlessly succeeded and took over Titan’s Tower as a trophy for their victory. Jinx even went so far as to keep Robin’s utility belt as a fashionable accessory. But their arrogance got the better of them. The Titans rose up and humiliated them, then the team was unfortunately sent back to the H.A.E.Y.P. for more training and a fitting punishment for their failure.
Making up for her previous failures, Jinx took more time within the H.A.E.Y.P. to regain her status and gain more training. In that time, the latest headmaster Brother Blood brainwashed her and the rest of the student body into carrying out his will without question. When Cyborg, a member of the Teen Titans, infiltrated the academy to find out what Blood was up to, Jinx fell for him, only to be betrayed as he revealed his identity and leveled their entire school. Life has never been easy for someone who is nothing but bad luck.
When the H.A.E.Y.P. was finally destroyed and Brother Blood defeated, Jinx put her leadership skills into action and formed the H.I.V.E. Five out of her original team and a group of misfits from the academy. Of the villainous group, Jinx was apparently the only one who took her criminal career seriously, as the other members all displayed a serious lack of initiative and a remarkably short attention span. Jinx, their fearless leader, was constantly faced with stressful, annoying situations involving trying to organize her group of idiots to do more than just mediocre heists. She knew she deserved more than what she was doing.
Through her time leading the H.I.V.E. Five, she spent a good deal of time trying to make things hard for the Teen Titans. At times, she would send her team off to terrorize the city just to get a reaction out of the heroes. They would pull “harmless pranks” on them including wrecking shopping malls, dragging them all over Southern California with bank robberies, teleporting them into high tech video games, stealing entire bridges, ruining romantic dates, or just plain tomfoolery. Obviously, someone with her level of training and intelligence was getting bored. Or maybe there was something else on her mind. Despite her control over what she called “bad luck,” she took to robbing a local museum of a necklace said to bring good luck to whoever possessed it. It confused her team for a moment, until their attention went elsewhere.
This heist took place while the Teen Titans were out of Jump, and the Brotherhood of Evil was working on conquering the world. After calling Jinx and her team to aid them, and what she thought to be a successful robbery, it seemed like nothing could bring Jinx down. That was until Kid Flash came along. Just as she was walking out of the museum with the good luck necklace in hand, he snatched it away from her, humiliated her team, and put a rose in her hand at light speed. He was standing in her way, so she sought out to use this misfortune to her advantage.
Hoping to win the approval and respect of Madame Rouge, whom she idolized, and to improve her standing in the eyes of the Brotherhood of Evil, Jinx concocted the brilliant plan to capture Kid Flash and present him to the Brotherhood as a gift. He proved difficult to capture, and to make the situation worse, Kid Flash had taken a liking to Jinx. During their encounters, he flirted with her, trying to convince her to renounce her life of crime. He continued to try and pry open her rough exterior, to see who she was within, to tell her she was better than all that she was doing, better than a life of villainy and the idiots she surrounded herself with. He began to convince her that she was better than all this, that she did not need to hurt others to feel better about herself, but that convincing seemingly was all an act. She conned the super hero into being completely unaware of his surroundings. She set him up to capture, and when her team wore him down, she beat him over the head with a wet floor sign.
After hauling him back to her lair, throwing him in a cage, then her team getting bored and leaving to go watch wrestling, Jinx began to speak with Kid Flash again. When she asked him why he was so interested in her, he replied that she was special. That she was above all that she was doing. He was slowly convincing Jinx that a life of crime was not the best, and there were better ways to get what she wanted, where she would be respected and not used. But before she was convinced, he cracked a joke, her temper got the better of her, then she moved to contact the Brotherhood of Evil.
Point in Canon:
Mid episode 60, Lightspeed. I’m taking her from right before she contacts the Brotherhood of Evil, when she has Kid Flash captured and he tells her she is above being a villain.
Jinx has been updated to the end of the Teen Titans TV series. This means that she has given up being a member of the Hive FIVE, helped the Titans defeat the Brotherhood of Evil, is dating Kid Flash a bit, and she's testing out being a Titan. So she now refers to herself as a semi-reformed supervillain, but never says that she's actually with the Titans.
Character Personality:
As any great villain should be, Jinx is determined, stubborn, outspoken, mysterious, strong, and an incredible liar. These are traits that have helped her rise to the top of the HIVE Academy, graduating the top of their class, then going on to lead her own team to terrorize Jump City. What she wants most in this world is respect and acceptance, but instead she settles for fear. Her team, although they cannot seem to do much of anything right, follows her orders because they are terrified of her. Not only is she intelligent and super powered, but she has a terrible temper.
Jinx’s temper gets her into a lot of trouble. At one point, she brings down several tons of steel structure down on herself just because she cannot get her enemy off of her. Much later in the series, Kid Flash sparks her temper and she ends up destroying her entire bedroom trying to get him. If her team makes her angry, she yells at them, throws them, beats them, hexes them, or just makes their lives very, very unfortunate.
Alongside her temper, she does not appear to have the most rational of thought trains or complete sanity. She likes getting in the last word, because it makes her feel like she has won, even if it ends badly for her, because she looks at the ends before the means. If hexing someone means they will shut up, she will do it, despite that it may cause much more problems for her in the end. In her younger years, during battle she almost always wore a grin that could be considered psychotic. At times she can be very creepy, incredibly manipulative, and sometimes borderline sociopathic. Jinx is a very good liar and lacks remorse for those lies, as well as injuring others when she believes “they deserve it.” But when she hurts the ones she cares for, she has difficulty dealing with the extreme level of guilt she feels.
Jinx has a tendency to blame herself for everything bad that happens to her and the people close to her. Her back luck abilities are so extreme that misfortune follows wherever she goes. Though she seems to thoroughly enjoy her powers and being bad, she is quoted as saying, “I’m bad luck. Good was never an option for me.” In the beginning of Lightspeed, she steals a good luck amulet from a museum, and when questioned about it by her teammates, she becomes incredibly defensive. The girl wants to be good luck. If she could be good, she would, but is in the strong belief that she can never accomplish anything but evil. So why not go all the way? She likes having fun without having to answer to anyone. She aims to be a big time super villain, has gone through three schools of villainy, graduated top of her class, and is, in her belief, the best teen villain around. She likes respect, and the easiest way to get it as a metahuman who can do nothing but bad is to be the best villain the world has seen.
Aside from all her strengths, Jinx is a very emotional young woman. She attaches herself very firmly to people, especially of the male variety, and has a difficult time letting go, as shown from numerous occasions of her being jealous over ex boyfriends. Her jealousy is about as strong as her temper, leading her to attacking without warning and screaming fits. She likes to feel like she not only belongs, but is needed by those around her. Without people around her, she has a difficult time both staying stable and feeling optimistic in her usually cynical outlook of the world. Good at hiding it, someone would not notice that trait easily, because she seems so independent and tenacious. Above all, she does not care who it is; no one messes with Jinx.
Appearance/PB:
In no way is Jinx the typical teenage girl. The first thing that may attract attention to her is a unique style of bright fuchsia hair and her ostentatious, witchy choice of clothing. Her skin is a pale gray decorated with unique features such as a permanent blush and dark liner around her eyes. Many of her attributes, along with her basic movement, is very catlike. Her nails are naturally hard and sharpened to a claw-like state, and her eyes are incredibly large: slit pupils on pink irises. With her profession, she is a very capable gymnast, almost weightless in movement, meaning she is a very small girl; she is much too thin. When her abilities are in use, or when she is emotional and they begin to burn within her, Jinx’s eyes and hands usually glow bright pink.
And here is a few pictures.
