You learn by doing, and by falling over. The greatest accomplishment is not in never falling, but in rising again after you fall.

near death experience…
[trigger warning: drowning]
It was all meant to be a bit of fun. If she listened to her mama though she would not be working towards her dream of being one of the number one heroes. How she came to her powers was nothing all that thrilling like the legends you greek tragedies or ones adorn on comic pages. Her near death experience was a moment of stupidity really, she knew better not to go skating on frozen lakes. Even though she had done it a thousand times before! When the ice started to crack, she thought she would have enough time one more spin before taken to a frozen watery grave, as the shards of ice broke beneath her feet. She remembers the cold, her temperature dropping. Then seeing this mysterious blue light...it was strange. But sometime strange can be good, leading to the weird and wonderful world of her powers. Not giving up, with her body temperature dropping, as she looked up with the hint of light she saw, swimming up. She knew the struggle would come, slipping as she pulled herself up with ease. Yet that didn't happen, her hands touched the ice and instead of a slippery grasp, her hold was firm and tight like grasping tightly from the rope. It was strange and unusual little did she know...that was her first time using her powers.
power…
Friction Manipulation: Allows Sabryna the ability to control and manipulate friction. With her power, she is able to alter the level of friction between objects and surfaces in a wide range of possibilities that alter some basic laws of physics. In order to activate the power, she must physically touch the surface she wishes to alter. She does not need to touch every individual surface, such as if she touched a wall, her alternation will apply to all walls in the area not just the single wall she has made contact with.
LEVEL ONE: BASIC FRICTION MANIPULATION
During this stage of her power development, she is only able to apply her power to small surface areas, as she progresses through her power leveling, the surface area will also increase. For now, she is only able to manipulate any surface that is the size of both her hands and feet. During this stage, she is only able to alter the friction of herself and surfaces, she is not yet able to affect other people’s own friction.
Friction Glide: allows to increase speed and movement by reducing the friction between her feet and the chosen surface. A way that she tends to travel in order to arrive at the scene swiftly and quickly. However, lacks very much control and coordination. Her speed and coordination will increase the better she gains her power. When Friction glide is activated, a soft glow will shine from behind the activated contacted surfaces.
Friction Reduction: this move allows the user to decrease the amount of friction between surfaces and objects resulting in smoother movement and reduced resistance. This allows Sabryna to make slippery surfaces, minimising the friction that hinders motion. When a surface is selected to be reduced it will glow a light shade of blue until engaged with another surface. This effect is only temporary and will fade in time.
Friction Increase: this allows her to increase the friction between objects or surfaces, providing a stronger grip or enhancing stability. She can create a rougher surface or increase the coefficient of friction, making it harder for objects to slide. When a surface is selected to be increased it will glow a dark shade of blue until engaged with another surface. This is only temporary and will fade in time.
Friction Awareness: gives her the ability to sense and perceive the level of friction in her environment, allowing her to make informed decision-making. She is able to detect the amount of friction present, her eyes glaze a soft tinted blue as she is scanning her surroundings looking at the gauge to if it is high or low and is able to adjust it accordingly through her touch. The range that she is able to detect will increase the stronger she gets with her power.
Looking at the levels of friction she has the capacity to control is playing around with Dry Friction, however, she is is experimenting around with fluid friction, skin friction, Lubricated fiction and Internal friction.
That is all for Now....>:3c
drawbacks / vulnerabilities…
Balance and Coordination Challenges: she is clumsy without her powers, when she is constantly altering the interactions between the body and environment she is disrupting her limited balance and coordination. She is always falling over, the more she uses her power the more likely she is to misstep and fall over due to her unbalanced center of gravity. For her, she is finding it far more difficult to ice skate, due to the the change of center of gravity.
Joint Stress: when constantly altering friction levels she is adding extra stress on her joints, especially when performing high-speed movement or sudden changes in direction. This can lead to joint pain, inflammation or even long-term joint damage if she does not look after herself properly.
Tendon and Ligament Strain: The sudden acceleration or deceleration caused by friction manipulation can put a strain on tendons and ligaments. This can result in sprains, strains, or even tears if the forces applied exceed the body's limits. Motion Sickness and fainting: the movement is not something that she is used to. When she overuses her control she tends to get spouts of motion sickness, that tend to make her vomit a sparkling array similar to how her powers seem to be active.
(if applicable) cerberus corp…
She auditioned, it was no easy fate but she will filled with determination. There was one hero who saved her, one who showed her kindness and a smile she will never forget. Something about that encounter always stuck with her. It was her drive, a motivation something that drove her more to pushing her dream into being a reality. She wants to be a part of the change of the world, do something that is greater than herself. Cerberus Corp is a place that can offer that...so she was going to do everything that she can. It might have taken a few tries but...there is something about her powers that has the potential to be more than just a simple slip and slide.
codename…
Amontons as in famous french scientist, inventor and physicist, Guillamue Amontons who pioneered the laws of friction! Please just tell Sabryna that you know before she gets out her powerpoint to start explaining it all to you.
003. EXTRA
⛸️ She is always utterly messy, it has just been the way that she always has been. Some people might even call her a hoarder but that is not the case, Sabryna just does not like being wasteful with her stuff. Her family grew up being pretty tight with money, so judge her if you want or don't.
⛸️Family situation, basically a tight knit small family with a little sister, a supportive mother and strained relationship with her father, who is a cop, he is someone who doesn't believe the world needs saving my fancy heroes in costumes that the law should stay in the hands of the law. Does not support his daughter at her, still communicate but they don't really talk about work otherwise a lot of arguments would occur.
⛸️Misses the closeness of her family. Like board game nights. As much as an introvert she can be at times, she loves the company of her friends...maybe her found family in New York.
⛸️Use to compete as a Figure Skater, helped her with her scholarship, she was a women in Stem and studied Engineering, something that her father encouraged her with since she was a little girl.
⛸️More to come....
