Joker!Taylor
Taylor's trigger event is slightly different. Taylor had to spend almost a whole day inside the locker because the janitor decided not to do his job properly and to leave early. When she was delivered to the hospital Panacea wasn't around, so the infected skin at the edges of Taylor's lips had to be surgically removed. Her hair that she was so proud of had to be washed as quickly as possible, so it was cut short (shoulder length). Danny was worried sick that his daughter didn't come back from school. He didn't sleep the whole night, and when he got a call from the hospital in the morning he immediately rushed to her. He died in a car crash. His lack of sleep and the stress from almost losing his daughter causing him to be more reckless behind the wheel. He was hit by a truck and died almost instantly. Taylor wakes up a day and a half later to discover the tragic news. Without her father to put any pressure on the school Taylor has to pay the bills for her hospitalisation. She is given a mirror by the nurse after she asked to see just how bad is the damage. Something within her snaps for the second time. This is her second trigger event. Taylor goes completely mad, realising that she lost everything, what a fucking joke her life is, and decides to take revenge on the people and the system that wronged her.
Taylor is a Thinker/Tinker. After her first trigger, her Thinker power was specialising only on planning, both long term (for operations and etc.) and short term (for combat), and on systemisation of actions for greater efficiency. And her Tinker power was all about making improvised weapons, traps and etc., her potential arsenal expanding more and more depending on what she learned about in theoretical science and in practice, or which tinkertech she could possibly get her hands on to take apart (basically its more like a bootleg version of Dragons power that would have allowed her to make inferior copies of other tinkertech and create improvised weaponry from scrap based on her own knowledge), and on expandible tools. But after her second trigger these two powers started to bleed into each other, mixing together. Now her Thinker power is also focused on improvisation in both short and long term planning, and on understanding all kinds of systems (including people/humans that her improved power recognises as systems of beliefs). By examining a person's (or a group's) speech and actions she can understand both their projected and internal systems of beliefs, put herself in their place and make a pretty accurate prediction of their most likely actions in the future. She also understands where to push and what to do to "take apart" a person and "put together a bootleg version". Her Tinker power now allows her to not only make bootleg versions of other's tinkertech or create simple one-use items from scrap based on her own knowledge, but to also improve them, combine them and etc.. Now she is capable of combining different tinkertech systems of knowledge and technology to create something more complex and unique.
