Welcome to a brand new episode of "The Power over Me", the blog where you will learn more about where your power came from and what you can do without it.
After showing you the amazing power of Photokinesis last week, this week I will tell you all about a special race that is born with this gift as well. Travel with me to the Cosmic League to find out more about what being a Velorpian means.
As a Velorpian, you have the ability to send a non-blinding light with your powers. You also have superhuman strength and superhuman reflexes. On top of that, you have an enhanced sense of smell. Even though this all sounds really cool, there is an easy way to spot Velorpians: they all have red eyes and a white skin.
This week, I asked Myrna Allen to tell me her story of being a Velorpian:
"My name is Myrna Iris Allen and I'm a Metahuman, although the Cosmic blood runs through my veins. By day, the color of my hair is golden and my eyes are light blue; but, when it gets dark, my Velorpian condition transforms thats colors into a more intense: My hair and my eyes turn red and my skin... well, my skin is always very white. My condition also give me great powers which I still don´t control too well..., such a photokinesis, a superhuman strength and rapid reflexes; and an extremely sensitive smell something that's good and bad at the same time.
Until the age of fourteen my powers did not appear. But one day, when I was almost 15, something happened: I was walking with my father, holding his hand when suddenly a car almost hit us. I reacted instantaneously, grabbing my father's hand and throwing it two meters away, while reaching for him in a jump.
My father looked at me with wide eyes and then hugged me tenderly. I didn't understand anything at all ... at home they both talked to me and explained to me about my cosmic side. The deduction was clear: I was a Meta Human. That incident that had endangered my father and me, made my powers come to light.
But one night, everything changed for me. I saw two big men, in a black suit and a black mask. And it seemed they wanted to take me with them, maybe kidnap me. That situation did not look good, my life were in grave danger. But just when one of those disgusting men tried to grab my other hand, it began to emit a powerful light that disoriented them. Then he could take one of the arms and, with a force now superhuman, throw it against a wall, leaving him unconscious. And I ran home, full of fear.
Now I'm at Metropolis University to learn to control my powers and be stronger every day."
