Abilities
Character's Canon Abilities: Oh, here’s a fun story. Chloe has actually had two canon abilities, neither of which she has anymore! They are as follows.
Empathic Healing – In season six, it was revealed that Chloe had a meteor rock/Kryptonite induced ability. She could heal people, and take on their pain herself. At first, Chloe had no idea what her power was, and she spent several weeks fretting over what it would be and wondering if she was going to go homicidal like basically ever other “meteor freak” in the past. Fortunately, this was not Chloe’s fate, and her power was revealed when her cousin, Lois Lane, was stabbed in the stomach. Chloe found the other girl bleeding out inside the Reeve’s dam and cried for her, the tears she shed glowing and bringing her cousin back from the dead. Chloe herself ‘died’ and was pronounced dead at the local hospital for several hours. She woke in the morgue and was rescued by Clark.
It is later revealed that when she heals someone she feels their pain. When she healed a cut on Jimmy Olsen’s finger, she flinched and grabbed her own hand right after.
It seems the more intense the injury, the more Chloe is affected. When she healed Lex Luthor, who had flat lined during an experimental treatment, she had no heartbeat for almost eighteen hours. Clark surmised that if she kept using her abilities on critically wounded people, she might die for good. This theory was never tested however, because Brainiac attacked Chloe in her apartment at the end of season seven. Her healing ability kicked into gear, but was lost after saving her life.
Super Intelligence – Due to Brainiac’s infection of her mind at the end of season 7, Chloe gained intelligence far beyond a normal human, and could interpret codes and encryptions even faster than the best supercomputer. She used these skills to help Clark and her others friends several times over the course of season 8, but it was soon revealed that Brainiac was slowly deleting Chloe’s memories and replacing them with Kryptonian code for Clark to see. Once Clark realized what was happening to his best friend, he took her to the Fortress to have Jor-El cure her. Her memories were successfully restored, but the infection wasn’t completely obliterated. Even so, she lost the super intelligence.
At the point where I am taking Chloe from in canon, she has no super powers anymore.
Conditional: If your character has no superhuman canon abilities, what dormant ability will you give them? Technopath. Her healing ability got her into waaay too much trouble and I’m glad it’s gone. So in SP, I would like Chloe to have the ability to communicate and control her beloved little machines. Even though she is seriously unplugging from her Watchtower persona as of the end of season 9 in order to reconnect with the world, she is still that vital member of the team and will always be working with computers.
Her powers will probably not awaken for a very long time. She’s good enough with computers and equipment that she can understand them all on her own. An upgrade wouldn’t happen until she was trying to pull a major hacking job, if the opportunity ever arose.
Weapons: An automatic handgun. She keeps one on her most of the time these days for protection.
History/Personality/Plans/etc.
Character History: This should have everything!
Point in Canon: End of season 9, after Oliver is taken at the end of ‘Salvation’.
Conditional: Brief summary of previous RP history: N/A
Character Personality: Chloe’s personality is really something that, for a completely original character to the Superman Universe made only for Smallville, actually goes through quite a few changes. I guess that’s what happens when you stick by Clark Kent’s side for over ten years.
Chloe Sullivan makes her debut in season one as the intrepid reporter and curious best female friend in Clark’s life. Sort of a ‘Lois Lane’ before the character was ever introduced to the show, Chloe is clever, outgoing, and incredibly dedicated to exposing the truth. A young woman with a snappy wit and intelligence and a way with words, she is heavily devoted to the high school newspaper, often times seeming to run it virtually alone. She is incredibly intrigued by the paranormal and the strange, even going so far as to document and ‘scrapbook’ the strange events in Smallville. With so many interesting tidbits, eventually her scrapbook turned into a full blown bulletin board, dubbed the ‘Wall of Weird’. Needless to say, sometimes Chloe’s passion for reporting the strange took precedence over reporting the normal news, which was something that tended to get her into trouble.
Given the fact that Chloe was an only child and her mother left her when she was a young girl, Chloe developed close attachments to her friends. She is fiercely loyal to Clark, Lana, and Pete, and truly is a good and kind friend. However, it has been said that in her younger years, Chloe’s friends had a tendency to not trust her and sometimes with good reason. Chloe once poked a little too far into the circumstances surrounding Clark’s adoption, and this ended with him getting incredibly angry at her. Given the fact that she really cared for her friends, she often responded to bad news or hurt feelings, with tears and accusations. She hated being the bad guy in the eyes of the ones she loved, so she’d often turn the tables on them to point out just exactly why she’d done something wrong. In her teenage years, Chloe had a penchant for not always taking responsibility for her actions.
As she grows up, Chloe does indeed begin to mature. As she comes to realize that Clark will never feel for her the way she feels for him, she settles into the role of best friend and secret keeper. She helps Clark at almost every turn, using her reporter’s nose and knack for hacking to get him information he might need. It’s important to note that Chloe will totally disregard privacy if she feels she’s going to save someone. Even though she is great at sticking her nose into other people’s business, she is actually very private about her own affairs. She never really tells anyone about her mother’s mental illness until she’s afraid she’ll inherit it herself, and she keeps her meteor ability a secret from everyone except Clark up until she knows her secret will tear her away from all the people she loves. Chloe is the type of person who will risk her life for someone she loves, but never let anyone else know she is really suffering if she thinks it will hurt them.
Chloe continues to play the best friend, confidante, and information broker to all of her friends for a very long time, all the way up through season eight. She develops a serious relationship with Jimmy Olsen, and marries him, but has to go through a divorce only a month or so later. Even though she reconciles with Jimmy over the problems that were brought about by his addiction to painkillers, as well as the lies Chloe had to tell to protect her friends from David Bloom/Doomsday, her life is thrown into chaos and despair when Jimmy is murdered by Davis.
In season 9, Chloe Sullivan is a much different young woman. Having watched her husband die, as well as been abandoned by Clark so he can pursue his destiny as a hero and leave behind his human connections, as well as having her cousin Lois missing for weeks, Chloe becomes a far more withdrawn, angry, and detached young woman. She was fired from the Daily Planet at the end of season 7, but her connections to the Isis Foundation and helping young meteor infected people that she established in season 8 are completely gone. The eagerly helpful, honest, idealistic young girl we knew is gone, replaced by someone who is battle hardened and very angry.
By this point, Chloe’s only attachment is to Watchtower, the base of operations Jimmy bought for her as a wedding gift. Chloe sets up a high tech base for the fledgling Justice League, as acts the communication networks between the already established networks of Oliver Queen’s heroes. In her quest to protect people, Chloe does just about anything, even if it means sacrificing the one in favor of the many. She feels completely disconnected from Clark, and even when he comes back into the picture to live a double life, she is far more likely to fight with him when he comes to her for aid. She feels a lot less like a friend, and more like an informant. She quick and short with people, and gives the outside world the cold shoulder. She barely leaves Watchtower at all, and only does so to get a good cup of coffee now and again.
Chloe completely unplugs from the real world, and only looks out for her team. The more it becomes apparent that the heroes aren’t going to work together, the more annoyed and quick tempered she grows. She is even willing to push Oliver Queen to the brink of life and sanity in order to bring him back from his suicidal trip after he murders Lex Luthor. Eventually, many weeks later, she admits to Oliver that she is not having any fun in her life, and only thinks about work. Oliver invites her to learn how to shoot a bow, and things begin to change from there.
While Chloe still maintains a certain edge to her personality that was not there before, she opens up more to Clark and they slooowly rebuild their friendship. It is incredibly strained by Clark’s blind optimism that he can help the Kandorians, for Chloe believes that they will simply take over the earth with their powers. But given time, they slowly make amends, and Chloe tells Clark that with Ollie in her life she wants to plug back into the real world. The witty, joking, more quirky side of Chloe slowly comes back into the picture. Her ability to hold her own in a battle of snappy comebacks never exactly went away, but she is now back to the more good natured way of doing things that reminds us of her younger days.
She had initially pushed Ollie away and kept her relationship with him at a distance, just like Clark and Lois, because she was afraid to be hurt anymore. She’d already lost so many people, her parents, Lana, Jimmy… she couldn’t take it anymore. She tells Tess Mercer she would have no reason to blame him when he left her, as if she was sure it would happen one day. But with help, and love, from the right places, she slowly comes out of the tough and thick shell she built for herself over season 9.
While she’s definitely tougher, more cynical, and more dedicated to a cause than she’s ever been in her life, Chloe is still a good and kind person at heart. She may lie a little more often for the sake of greater good, and she may not always be as soft as Clark, but she really is looking out for the good of the world.
Conditional: Personality development in previous game: N/A
Character Plans: Honestly, since I’m bringing Chloe from the end of season 9, she is just starting to get back into the real world after developing a relationship with Oliver Queen/The Green Arrow. Chloe is coming in at a vulnerable moment because she just admitted to Oliver that she loves him, but still has to remain in Watchtower to keep track of Clark, the other heroes, the Kandorians, and all the information coming in at her at once. She’s ready to break back into real life, but is constantly being thrust back into her role as Watchtower.
I want to see how Chloe adjusts to life without Ollie, and how she gets back into making friends and working with Clark and Lois without her position as den mother and information network. Siren’s Port will be both similar to and very different from Metropolis in many ways, and I want to work her around this new home and see how she grows.
She need to plug into the real world again, and with so many new people to meet, this will be a great opportunity.

Writing Samples
First Person Sample [The video image comes on, showing a young woman with a incredibly worried look in her eyes, but her face set in concentration.]
Well Toto, we’re definitely not in Kansas anymore, that’s for sure. [There the click of phone keys as she works her new gift from the Port.]
Okay, so it’s obvious this isn’t the phone I had before coming here, but at least this isn’t a bad welcoming gift. That is, after the whole being questioned by the police fiasco… not a bad bonus prize for having absolutely nothing to tell them.
So now that I’ve actually gotten the ‘friendly’ version of what’s going on around here and even been given this charming new place to stay, I guess I’ll commence with some good old fashioned fact finding from the locals. Been a while since I’ve had to do that, and you really can’t go wrong with more information.
And hey, if not the only one from Metropolis who just happened to be whisked away from home, could you guys do me a favor and check in? I’d like to know if you’re safe.
[She looks up now, shaking her head.] This is the part where I’d really like to click my heels and head home right about now.
Third Person Sample Chloe was no stranger to waking up with no clue what was going on. She’d been in so many dangerous and weird situations during her life that she’d really grown pretty used to them. But her arrival in Siren’s Port hadn’t exactly been smooth, given that one minute she’d just lost all contact with Oliver and then she was suddenly blacking out and finding herself in a baseball field. Scurrying to her feet, she looked around frantically, even going so far as to call out “Ollie?” as if he might magically answer her. When she was suddenly approached by people she didn’t recognize, in a place she didn’t recognize, she’d of course gone with her first instinct…. which was to run for it. However she’d been taken from the interior of Watchtower, she didn’t know and she didn’t like it.
Of course, making a break for it hadn’t sat well with the local authorities. After she was caught and questioned, she stopped fighting so hard. These people didn’t seem like a threat, and they definitely weren’t anyone from Checkmate or the group of Kandorians. There was nothing in their questions about Watchtower, aliens, the Green Arrow, the Blur, or anyone else she knew. When they realized that Chloe was starting to cooperate with them, and she gave them no reason to keep her, the young woman was released into the hands of the greeters. She took their information in as best she could given the circumstances and eventually thanked them for showing her to the apartments for ‘new arrivals’.
“Of all the things to happen in my life, I’m surprised that being pulled to a secluded island by some out of control techno-beacon is only number five on the top ten list of weird.” Her comment left the greeter smiling, and then the woman left her alone. As soon as she had privacy, Chloe set to work on trying to get in contact with Clark, Oliver, or someone from the team. But her usual bag of tricks wasn’t there, and all she’d been left with was a completely new phone. Not bad, but not exactly safe. After working with as much encryption as she could, she tried the numbers of her team.
“Come on…” she said, biting lightly at her thumbnail as she was told over and over that the number she had dialed was not available. She was risking a lot by doing this, but she needed some reassurance that she wasn’t alone in this weird place. For the first time in a long time, she was ready and willing to make contact with people. But if she really was trapped in a little island bubble, it didn’t look like she had any way of contacting her companions. Or making sure that Ollie was okay.
Panicking was not something Chloe Sullivan did much anymore… she often tried to keep a cool head and work with all the bells and whistles that Watchtower gave her. But at this exact moment, it didn’t look like she had anything helpful at all.
And that definitely scared her. She placed her face in her hands, “At this point I’m even ready to just stand at the window and yell ‘Help! Clark!’ like in the old days.”
