Amarjeet's broken leg has been replaced by a sleek, cybernetic model. Largely composed of State of the Art ceramics & polymers, it is still clearly artificial.

Knee Gun: This weapon can only be fired with accuracy in Melee range, can hold 8 rounds, & is typically fired with a "Knee Strike" motion.
Striking: Kicks delivered by the leg count as strikes from a Baton/Club

Marnie is an Aquaman-style mermaid, with light blue-gray scales covering much of her body (although her face and hands, as well as most of her arms, are barely touched, leaving it easy to imagine that the few scales that are there are makeup or tattoos).

Thalassic Aegis manifests as an inexplicable protective phenomenon surrounding Marina. This ability creates a barrier of water that responds to threats with uncanny timing and precision.
Moments before an attack connects, ambient moisture coalesces or water seemingly materializes from nowhere. The aqueous shield adapts to each threat: hardening into ice to deflect blades, dispersing into mist to slow projectiles, or erupting in pressurized jets to alter the trajectory of incoming strikes.
The water's form shifts fluidly between states - liquid, solid, and vapor - each transformation accompanied by a faint, otherworldly shimmer. As Marina's experiences accumulate, Thalassic Aegis appears to grow more effective, occasionally even lashing out at attackers with tentacle-like water whips or sudden steam explosions.
Marina remains puzzled by the true nature and origin of this power. It feels instinctual, like an extension of her connection to the sea, yet carries hints of something vaster and more mysterious. Each activation leaves her with fleeting impressions of depths unexplored and secrets yet to be fathomed in the world's oceans.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
