Relationships:
I've been learning about earth by spending time with Chasity.
I have a crush on Jelly Black but I keep it under wraps. Outsider Moves Alien Ways: Whenever you openly disregard or undermine an important Earth custom in favor my own people's customs, shift Superior up and any other Label down. Kirby-craft: I have a vehicle. Her name is Starlight and grew her from a seed on my birth-planet. She is fast and maneuverable, and regenerating, but unarmed. I have a tremendous emotional attachment to her and try my best to keep her from harm. When I am flying my ship, I can use it to unleash my powers, directly engage a threat, or defend someone using Superior The best of them: When I comfort or support someone by telling them how they exemplify the best parts of Earth, roll +Freak instead of +Mundane. Moment of Truth I embrace my home and call them for aid. They will answer my call - in force! - arriving exactly when I need them to turn the tide. They fight and serve me for the rest of the battle. Of course, when all is said and done. . . they'd probably like to take my home with them. I did, after all, just prove myself worthy. Team Moves When I share a triumphant celebration with someone, take Influence over them if I show them meaningful affection, physical or emotional. They decide if it's meaningful. When I share a vulnerability or weakness with someone, they tell me what I should do to fit in more. Take +1 forward to do it, and mark potential if I do.

Personal history
Born from the consensual relationship of an intergalactic energy being and a human woman, I was raised on a nursery planet with children that were from similar unions of the energy beings with other races. I was brought to earth at the age of 12 to learn what it means to be human and to bond with others here. I am expected to return to the energy being soon, bringing what I have learned about being flesh and bonding with others.
I want to stay because I feel there is so much more to learn. How do we deal with wickedness? What do we do with beings that refuse any attempt at understanding? How to do we teach empathy to others that are willing to learn? What do we do when our attempts at connection are refused? There is so much that can happen!
I have a personal mission to increase the empathy of humans with others and with their environment. To this end I have begun a charity organization called the Sunshine Society that is supported by the Rook Foundation. One of our main programs is adopting out kittens and puppies to people in prison. Based on the success of other similar programs:
Give-Inmates-and-Shelter-Dogs-a-Second-Chance
prison-animal-programs-benefitting-inmates
I feel confident that we can teach empathy to those that most need it and bring convicted criminals back to the arms of society.
The Sunshine Society also organizes and helps to maintain community gardens throughout the city. With the help of the Rook Foundation we have been able to purchase empty lots and some derelict buildings in neighborhoods where people have difficulty getting fresh food. Creating gardens here with beautify the area, bring people out of their homes and give them a reason to work together and share the fruits of their labor. With persistence and care I'm sure these gardens will be a success!
Recently, I've joined with a team of super heroes. We call ourselves The Universals. I like this name! We will bring the universe together in understanding and harmony! This team is made up of such different people, with such different backgrounds. I need to learn their stories and discover how to connect with them. How can they use their power in a moral way, respecting the agency of others and minimizing the harm and pain they cause? I have so much to learn from them and our shared situation of being powerful and working in the midst of more fragile people.
Gender Identity
I prefer that others use the pronoun "they" when referring to me. I identify as neither male nor female and find the social ideas of masculinity and femininity to be confining and a little ridiculous.
Sexuality
Truly gender fluid, I enjoy intimate relationships with male and female partners. It is part of my missions to understand what it means to be flesh and I am always looking for new experiences.
Intellectual Characteristics
Incredibly empathic. I try to understand the viewpoint of others and their situation.
Morality & Philosophy
Buddhist ethics and philosophy best describe how I endeavor to act and think:
Ten wholesome actions
Bodily actions:
"Someone gives up killing living creatures", they "renounce the rod and the sword", "They’re scrupulous and kind, living full of compassion for all living beings."
"They give up stealing. They don’t, with the intention to commit theft, take the wealth or belongings of others from village or wilderness."
"They give up sexual misconduct." I will not engage in intimate behavior that the other does not consent to. Even if they are a cute kitten-cat.
Verbal actions:
"A certain person gives up lying."
"They give up divisive speech. They don’t repeat in one place what they heard in another so as to divide people against each other. Instead, they reconcile those who are divided, supporting unity, delighting in harmony, loving harmony, speaking words that promote harmony."
"They give up harsh speech. They speak in a way that’s mellow, pleasing to the ear, lovely, going to the heart, polite, likable and agreeable to the people."
"They give up talking nonsense. Their words are timely, true, and meaningful, in line with the teaching and training. They say things at the right time which are valuable, reasonable, succinct, and beneficial."
Mental actions:
"It’s when someone is content. They don’t covet the wealth and belongings of others: ‘Oh, if only their belongings were mine!’ They have a kind heart and loving intentions: ‘May these sentient beings live free of enmity and ill will, untroubled and happy!’"
"It’s when someone is content, and lives with their heart full of contentment. They are loving, and live with their heart full of love. They’re kind, and live with their heart full of kindness."
"It’s when someone has such a view: ‘There is meaning in giving, sacrifice, and offerings. There are fruits and results of good and bad deeds.’"
