Business Suit[]
For Business Attire, Eve wears a dark green suit consisting of a coat over a white shirt with a matching pencil skirt and black shoes. Her hair is tied up into a bun and she wears pink glasses.
Personality[]
Eve tends to be a caring girl who struggles with finding her own identity. This is seen when she breaks up with Rex due to his cheating, leading her to quit her team. After that Eve takes this as a time to find her inner growth. Partly done because she truly wants to help people, and also to help herself find tranquility away from the things that caused her to feel stressed. Eve seemed to struggle with the pressure of balancing being hero, relationships and school. After helping Amber at the community center, she decided to quit her education even though she has good grades. Her powers give her comfort and stability to create an ideal world and environment that is suited to her.
Eve is an idealist who has strong beliefs and opinions on how the world should be. Even though Eve has one of the strongest powers in the series, she tries to utilize her powers in a way that's directed at nature, the environment, and people positively. However, in the last episode, Eve is conflicted about how she has been using her powers more isolated and directed at nature in contrast to the beginning of the series when she was on a team and used her powers more directed at villains and combat.
At the end of season one when she gives her secret identity away to Amber and William, due to the fact Amber and William already knowing about Mark's secret identity. She tells them that she's Atom Eve but becomes disappointed when both William and Amber don't recognize who she is. This could be due to the fact that she decided to use her powers more indirectly and isolated where before she was up close to all the action. Eve seems to struggle with stress causing her to leave her home when conflicting with her father. She finds comfort in talking to Mark due to both going through similar situations, because Mark is a hero with powers having relationship issues, similar as her. Eve and Marks relationship is special as she was the first out of his peers to find out his identity, partly because they both have powers. Mark seemed to be interested and physically attracted to Eve at the beginning of season one, however Eve was somewhat clueless to the way Mark interacted with her on a much more attentive level that only Rex could see and point out somewhat vaguely.
Eve puts others needs above her own. When she wanted to talk to Mark because she was struggling with Rex, she saw Mark making out with Amber and seemed genuinely happy that Mark had found a relationship, even though it meant that she couldn't talk to Mark in that moment or pursue him in a relationship as it seemed after she broke up with Rex she was starting to fall for him. This also showed that Eve feels like she can rely on Mark to talk to when she has inner turmoil.
Eve is a loyal friend and this is shown when Eve makes excuses to Amber about Mark's absence. Eve cares about helping people and cares for her friends a lot and helps them.
At the beginning of the first half of Season 2, Eve has grown reliant and overconfident in her abilities. While still trying to do what she believes is the right thing, she often fails to think things through, offering to use her powers to deal with her parents' financial situation and creating entire buildings without following proper regulations. Upon realizing this after people got injured due to her creations, Eve's confidence seems to have fallen considerably, desperately trying prevent anyone else from getting hurt as a result of her heroics.
Powers and Abilities[]
Powers[]
- Energy Projection: Eve can project a visible energy field, the precise nature of which is unknown but appears pink in color. She can use this energy for a variety of purposes, including but not limited to:
- Energy Constructs: One of Atom Eve's most commonly used abilities which allows her to create versatile energy constructions, which are limited only by her imagination and willpower. She is capable of using her energy constructs defensively and offensively. Though formidable it has been shown at times, that these constructs can be broken and/or shattered through enough brute force.
- Flight: Eve can fly or transport others by means of projecting solid light constructs that effectively levitate and propel them forward at high speeds.
- Telekinesis: Eve has demonstrated the ability to levitate and move objects and matter with her energy manipulating abilities.
- Matter Manipulation: Due to her ability to manipulate the molecular and atomic structure of matter within her immediate vicinity, Eve has learned to rearrange and alter the molecular composition of any object she chooses. The first time she used this was able to turn a textbook into glass and then reverse this effect. She basically has the power to turn anything into anything else, so long as it is not a living, sentient being.
- Transmutation: She later has shown excellent skill in her transmutation powers, being able to warp matter within her environment, creating a large tree house out of thin air, & summon floral life in a barren wasteland. The limit to the amount of matter she can transform at one time is not yet known. She has on at least on one occasion, transmuted an undefined amount of barren farmland into a lush field of bountiful crops. The transformations that Atom Eve induces are apparently permanent unless she undoes them. Her costume is easily created by altering her clothes to fashion her Atom Eve suit.
- Biokinesis: Atom Eve's powers can allow her to affect living creatures and people, though this is normally restrained by mental blocks imposed by Brandyworth. When the blocks are removed, she gains access to formidable powers she normally does not have. She still possesses basic control over biological matter, but it is limited to simple and non-sentient forms (e.g., the bread and meat in a burger, or plant life such as trees and crops).
- Regeneration/Resurrection: If Eve dies, her power limiters are temporarily removed and her powers will instantly activate, reviving her. In addition, all injuries and other damage will be fully healed, as shown when died from Conquest shattering her face: It and her previously broken broken leg were instantly restored.
- Memory Alteration: She can affect the minds of individuals and change their memories.
- Reality Warping: When accessing her full power, Eve has such vast control over energy/matter that she can warp reality.
- Superhuman Durability: Eve has proven to be fairly durable, withstanding blows that would be easily fatal to ordinary people, most notably when Omni-Mark broke her leg and threw her to the ground with enough force to cause a crater.
Abilities[]
- Hand To Hand Combat: Though preferring to utilize her powers in battle, Eve is trained in hand to hand combat. This consists of her using her energy based powers to enhance her physical strikes. Eve is also extremely flexible allowing her to evade incoming attacks.
- Science Level Intelligence: At the age of 8, Eve managed to read and understand scientific terms like mercury, electrons, and molecules. She is able to learn about atomic and molecular elements.
Weaknesses[]
- Awareness: Eve can only alter what she is aware of. If there are parts to something that she is unaware of, then this will remain unaffected by her powers. This is shown when Eve attempted to create a playground only for it to fall apart, due to not knowing the ground where she built it was unstable, causing it to collapse under its own weight.
- Mental Limiter: Eve has a mental limiter on her powers that prevents her from manipulating sentient organic matter and generally restricts her abilities. While she still maintains basic control over biological matter, this is limited to simple and non-sentient forms, such as the bread and meat in a burger, or plant life like trees and crops. However, these limitations can be temporarily lifted when she is under significant duress or experiences extreme emotions.
