Description
Name: Sara Summers

Gender: Female

Age: 28

WDSA Status: Bronze - Employed Scientist

Personality: Sara has a very bright and bubbly attitude, throwing herself headlong into social situations and trying to befriend everyone she meets. At first glance, she can come across as feather-brained and with a short attention span (in most instances, true), but if she becomes interested in something, she will pursue it with impressive tenacity. Impulsive and brash, with a tendency to 'leap before she looks'. She might be intelligent and a good scientist, but common sense is severly lacking for the most part. Anyone who thinks kissing registered WDSA members 'just to have a go at turning into them' obviously has a few screws loose.
Hey, who the hell is writing this?
I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW I'M GREAT.

Abilities:
- Can transform into any native animal from Earth, cannot change into plants, fungi or unicellular organisms.
- Can attempt to transform into non-Earth or supernatural species if she comes into physical contact with them, but it will only be an incomplete shell, with none of the abilities (useful, perhaps, for spooking someone, but not much else). If exposed to the DNA of the unknown species (through blood, saliva or other sources of live cells) she will be able to fully replicate that organism and any intrinsic abilities they possess (flight, gills, toxic resistance etc). Although she is never able to replicate magic.
(For instance, if she replicated a dragon that could breathe fire, if the fire is generated through magic she will be unable to do so, but if the fire is created from a physical store of gas that the animal can produce itself, she will be able to use that ability.)
- SCIENCE

Weaknesses:
- If transforming into an animal much larger than her natural mass, she runs the risk of losing consciousness, with the length of time dictated by the size difference. This can be pretty hazardous if, say, one were to change into a whale and then lose consciousness in the middle of the ocean, having to be rescued by your coworkers before you drowned. Not that she ever did that... eh... heh....
- She might be able to turn into, say, a rhino, but she's still a flesh-and-blood animal, she takes damage as easily as the creature in question. Will definitely die if shot in the head or something. Please believe me on this. DO NOT TRY IT I SWEAR TO GOD
- When attempting a transformation into a new creature, there will be an adjustment period while she figures out how the various limbs, fins, tongue or other body parts work. She is very vulnerable during this time, essentially flailing around like a newborn kitten.

Other Notes:
- If she has spent a lot of time in a certain animal form she will start to carry habits over into her human form, such as 'owning' items by rubbing her head against them like a cat would, or sunning herself in the morning like a lizard etc.

Background: Originally Sara was employed as a scientist by the WDSA studying the genomes of species on Earth, both to make splicing procedures safer and to determine whether 'supes' might arise from random mutation. An 'incident' (involving a rather large explosion and a big, big mess) led to Sara's DNA becoming infused with all the genomes they had stored and made her very unstable genetically. Since then she has been able to change herself into any species she comes into physical contact with, though true replication can only be achieved through ingestion, or injection, of a live DNA sample from the subject. However, despite repeated attempts to prevent it, a crocodile tail remains at all times, whether in human form or otherwise. No cause has been determined for this.
Yo man, I told you, I was working with crocodile DNA at the exact moment the explosion happened, that's probably why. Just, ya know, just sayin'.
You just don't like that I keep hitting on you with it. ;3

These powers are definitely in good hands.
Oh dear gods I don't get paid enough for this.
