Quicksilver Final Sketch

Description

Here she is!  The final sketch of Quicksilver (for the record, I had not heard of the Marvel characters Quicksilver or Mercury.  I felt really ripped off when I heard about them after creating this character).  I fixed some of the mercury effects on her arms and legs, and added a few more details to her clothing.  Let me know what you think, and if you see anything that I can improve on when I draw people (especially women) in the future!

Hannah Gallagher, a.k.a. Quicksilver, is an amateur crime fighter.  She is a mutant who has the ability to transmute her body into mercury, allowing her to reshape her body and giving her limited invulnerability.  She also possesses superhuman strength, as well as superhuman healing abilities.  Her most formidable ability, though, is her ability to distort time around her, which makes her seem extremely fast and allows her to enhance her reflexes to incredible levels.

Hannah began to discover her abilities during her teenage years.  During high school, she began to develop super-human strength, healing, and extra-ordinary mental endurance, each of which she was careful to hide for fear of what could happen if "normal" people discovered them.  Her time-distorting powers began to manifest themselves when she tried out for her school's drill team, and it helped her to perform acrobatics that most people would find impossible.

Her final, most notable ability, her power to change herself into a being of living mercury, appeared when she was involved in a near-fatal car accident.  During high school, Hannah dated Rodney Rickenbacker (gi-mo.deviantart.com/art/Hot-R….  On the way home from the Homecoming dance during their senior year, Rodney, who was driving, crashed and rolled his car.  Rodney ended up in critical condition, but Hannah unconsciously transformed to her mercury form and escaped unscathed.  Afraid of how her abilities would be viewed by other people, she carefully hid her powers and moved away from her home town in Upstate New York.

Hannah eventually moved to Manhattan to begin higher education, being extremely careful to conceal her powers and not betray her mutant nature.  Believing that Rodney had died in the car accident and afraid of becoming too close to anyone, she quietly avoided people and remained single, instead focusing on work and schooling.

Her solitary way of living would change dramatically, though, because a high-profile mercenary group staged a bank robbery near Columbus Circle, and a large police and SWAT standoff started.  The standoff could have gotten worse, except Night Angel, the Governator and Blitzkrieg leaped into action to save innocent lives and bring down the mercenary terrorists.  This inspired Hannah to begin using her powers to help bring criminals to justice and protect innocent people around her.

She took the name Quicksilver and began trying to prevent crimes, but her limited knowledge and experience led her to being wanted by NYPD for being a vigilante.  She eventually was able to meet up with the other heroes and begin a career as a super hero.
