++Application for Enrollment++
The Person
Name: Selene Gallio
Age: She’s old. REALLY old.
Place of Birth: Rome
Applying too: Hellfire Club
In what capacity: Black Queen
Family:
Marcus Domitius Gallio (husband, deceased)
Height: 5’10
Weight: 130
Appearance:
Selene's visual appearance may alter often because of her life draining abilities. In her true form, Selene is an ancient hag and looks as if she is near death. She, however, will never let herself be seen as such (not on purpose anyway). Selene is normally seen as a stunning woman of average height. Her raven colored hair complements her pale skin which also suits her dark personality. She has been said to look "gothic" due to her natural look and her choice of clothing. She is usually seen in very revealing clothing of black color.. She has grown quite fond of the traditional Hellfire Club attire of corsets and capes, but is often wearing a black version of Emma Frost’s white attire with long opera gloves, white leather pants that disappear seamlessly into white boots, a belt and choker and a leather bodice that leaves her midriff exposed and has a long white cape that emerges from the bustline.
Skills:
Selene is very well knowledged in sorcery and pretty much the world considering how long she's been alive. She's also pretty manipulative and good at persuading others into doing what she wants without her powers that is.
Personality:
Selene is what you would call a true witch. She is egotistical and has a fearfully caustic persona. Those who have met the White Queen of the Hellfire Club and considers her a bitch might just change their opinion if they ever run into The Black Queen. Selene is cold and callous towards others and unconcerned with other people, viewing them to be utterly disposable and meaningless.
Selene is extremely ambitious and deceitful, and should always be approached with caution due to her sociopathic tendencies. She desires power and will do anything to achieve more power. She may be sarcastic at times, or just plain scary. She gets pleasure from playing with the minds and lives of others. She represents corruption in the Externals, and created a new meaning for the word when she joined the Hellfire Club. She sometimes goes out of her way just to ruin things for others, whether it directly helps her or not. It wouldn't be a stretch to say that Selene is the most evil woman in the world.

The Mutant
Codename: Black Queen
Mutant Abilities:
• -Psychic Vampirism- Selene runs on the energy of others. By physical touch, Selene drains the energy of her foes to keep her youth and strength in sorcery. The results vary depending on the amount on energy she drains from her victim. If she drains someone completely dry of all energy, they are reduced to dust. She has also hinted that once she does this, she then owns their soul. If her victim is not drained dry, Selene holds mental control over them. It is not known exactly how long but probably depends on the energy stolen. Also note that as she receives their energy and she becomes younger, her victim ages just as rapidly. By using the absorbed life energies that sustain her, Selene can use the following abilities:
-Super Strength enabling her to lift (press) about 1,500 pounds under optimal conditions.
-Super Speed rivaling that of Quicksilver, but only for short periods of time under 5 minutes.
-Healing
-Invulnerability: immune to most forms of conventional injury. It is difficult to physically harm her. Selene's invulnerability appears to only be so when she is in a healthy disposition. When Selene lets her guard down, it seems as though her invulnerability fails her as well.
-Enhanced reflexes, agility and stamina.
• Animation: By projecting part of her into the objects, Selene is able to animate and/or levitate inorganic matter on a molecular level, by projecting part of her absorbed life force into it. She can affect nearly anything within her line of sight, and can warp and alter the molecules of inanimate matter to her whim, causing objects to wrap around and constrict others, creating lifelike humanoid structures to combat her opponents, or simply reducing objects to dust. She can use this power in more standard ways, such as creating powerful psi-shields around herself, and can levitate herself and others but cannot truly fly.
• Shadows: Selene can appear to be semi-substantial living darkness with the ability to appear and disappear at will and imprison people in the dark energy she appears to be composed of. She can manipulate darkness such as a dark cloud, or showing half her body and the rest dark tendrils.
• Immortal: So long as she drains life force, her aging process is greatly retarded and she can regenerate injured or missing cells from even near-fatal injuries.
Weaknesses:
-Overconfidence-This is Selene's major personality flaw. She often overestimates herself and/or underestimates her enemies.
-Psychic Vampirism- The amount of energy she has retained from her victims correlates somewhat with her physical strength and resistance to injury. Using her strength and especially her speed requires a heavy expenditure of energy and can cause her to age rapidly and require more life energy immediately. Thus, Selene is cursed by having to replenish her strength. In any long-lasting battle, Selene will more than likely lose (which would result in her running, not her losing.)
-Fear of ugly-Selene despises her true age, and the thought of it pretty much makes her go insane and flee.
-Cowardice: Selene will never let herself be truely defeated. She has most often been seen fleeing from battle on several occasions, even against the younger mutants.
- Selene will rarely ever go up against several mutants at once. She seeks out those she finds vulnerable, yet their "hero spirit" always seems to overcome her.
-Beings with invulnerability and healing factors have an increased advantage against Selene because while they can endure heavy and drawn out battles, she is usually forced to flee from a fight to replenish herself.
History:
Selene was born 17,000 years ago in central Europe, "After the Oceans swallowed Atlantis" and "Before the rise of the sons of Aryas". Selene's mother was young when she bore her, but would be dead before Selene spoke her first words. The tribal elders ordered her mother's people to sacrifice themselves to Selene until none remained. They thus gave her sustenance and her name. Selene was active at least as early as the Hyborian age. Selene is assumed to have been wandering the world for millennia.
Selene accompanied a large number of Roman citizens who fled Rome in the First Century B.C. and sailed to the New World, where they founded Nova Roma ("New Rome") in a hidden section of the Amazon jungle in what is now Brazil. The founders of Nova Roma fled Rome because they foresaw that its republican government would be replaced by an imperial one. For reasons that remain unknown. Selene found herself unable to leave Nova Roma, and remained there for roughly two thousand years. In Nova Roma she led the dreaded Cult of Fire as its Black Priestess.
In recent years Selene married Marcus Domitius Gallio, a senator of Nova Roma who plotted to abolish its republican government. The intervention of a band of young mutants both thwarted Senator Gallio's schemes and led to Selene's apparent destruction. However, Selene not only survived, but somehow found herself able to leave Nova Roma.
She soon traveled to New York City. Over the two millennia that she was trapped in Nova Roma, a religious cult worshiping Selene as a goddess had continued to survive in the outside world. Selene made contact with a leader of the cult, Friedrich Von Roehm, in New York City. Von Roehm was also a member of the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club, an elite group secretly dedicated to achieving world domination. Von Roehm successfully sponsored Selene for membership in the Inner Circle, and she rapidly rose to the high rank of Black Queen of the Inner Circle. Despite her hatred for Emma Frost, Selene has had a helping hand in her Academy by converting Nova Roma into a HFC youth training camp to properly raise hellions that would make suitable future members.
