Character's Name: Marnique Jenkins.
Mutant Nickname: Pink.
Mutant Power(s): Telekinesis.
Occupation: Bartender at Lusus Naturae--and as such, effectively one of Nocturne's spies.
Gender: Female.
Age: She won't tell. Probably late thirties, although she tries to look younger.
Height: 5' 7".
Hair Color: Dyed a blondish-brown caramel color, with dark pink streaks. She wears it in various ornate heaps of braids.
Eye Color: Black.
Physical Description: African-American, tall, and rather overweight. Wears heavy makeup, gaudy jewelry, tight clothing, and spike-heeled boots--always in shades of bright pink, hence her nickname. Speaks with a strong Southern accent.
Country/Hometown: Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
Immediate Family: A mother and sister in Georgia, both non-mutants with whom she has no contact.
Personality: Pink is a much more complex person than she lets on. As the bartender of Lusus Naturae, she affects a bored and unflappable demeanor, punctuated only by moments of flirtation with the few male customers who bother to notice her. In reality, she is extremely shrewd and observant. She has always been in search of ways to seize advantages for herself; however, she has a kind-hearted side, and is capable of great generosity.
Weaknesses: Pink knows a great deal about her employer Nocturne's real activities, and does not like it, but she chooses to look the other way for her own good. Her conscience does not rest very easily as a result.
Additional Skills: Good financial sense, developed from managing the budget at Lusus Naturae.
Hobbies/Interests: Outlandish fashions and the color pink. In her more playful moments, she also has an eye for men, although few repay her attention.
Personal History: Like many mutants, Pink was run out of her home when her mutation manifested as a teenager--but unlike many girls in her situation, she was determined not to give up her self-respect by working on the street. She made her way to New York, where she scraped out a living waiting tables for several years, eventually moving on to bartending. She was brought in by Nocturne after the Ferret--a regular customer at the bar where she was then working--chanced to see her using her telekinesis on the sly. It was Pink who inspired Nocturne to create his "mutie bar", Lusus Naturae, and in return he gave her an extremely well-paying job as head bartender.
Anything else:
Pink is a sort of ombudsman for Nocturne's organization. When bar patrons come to her with their troubles, or a particularly interesting mutant comes along, she often calls upon Nocturne's agents to look into the situation.
There may have been something significant about Pink's relationship with Nocturne at one point. However, they now have little direct contact.
She uses her telekinesis to impressive effect in the work of bartending.
