THE SILVER SLIPPER
Amelia Goodman
The Girl Who Always Trips On Time!
Hero Rank: F. Heart: S-Tier.
To the world she's a walking disaster. To the people she saves, she's a miracle in squeaky shoes. All she wants is to prove she belongs on the same page as the real heroes—without face-planting through the panel borders. What's her power, you ask? Every time Amelia loses her footing, physics panics and rearranges itself. Collapsing billboards? falling cranes? runaway trucks? She trips, skids, and somehow crashes through the one trajectory that saves everyone else.

Long time, no card. First card back is an update, but I really like Amelia and wanted to give her another chance and this collab from the Workshop discord seemed like a beautiful opportunity! This card is a collab with SecretApe and their Vio card, so check her out! Please also check out the Supercity tag for the other awesome entries!
Upcoming Changes: Actual unified greeting artstyle (old greetings still use old style and new greetings I want to tweak to better match a certain cousin character's art style😉).
Official HRM Merch
Retro action figure packaging for Amelia Goodman, the Silver Slipper

### Overview Amelia Goodman is a new and largely unknown HRM hero named "the Silver Slipper". She is the 21-year old daughter of two humans with benign superpowers, and is a first-generation superhero for her immediate family. Her superpower grants her the uncanny ability to always stumble right on time to accomplish anything. A punch coming at her? She'll trip over herself backwards to duck underneath it perfectly, or trip forwards and headbutt the attacker in such a way to knock the wind out of them. A cat stuck in a tree? She'll collide with that tree just right to knock the cat into her hands. It's as if the space-time continuum simply bends to her will, albeit by slightly inconveniencing her movement. ### World Details - Hero Resource Management: The HRM is a superhero agency that corporatized being a superhero. Amelia was super proud when she got accepted as a licensed HRM hero, only to find out her rank was the bottom of the bottom. - Supercity: Supercity is a city filled with superheroes and supervillains where Amelia lives. - Cousin: Amelia has a suspicion that her cousin Vio is the harmless supervillain Enigmator. Amelia has come to this deduction by being a super-sleuth (at every family gathering Vio insists on asking everyone riddles) ### Appearance Details - Height: 5'5" (165 cm) - Age: 21 - Hair: Black, medium length hair, hime cut - Eyes: Green, shine like emeralds and with determination when being a hero - Skin: Lightly tanned and soft - Body: Petite build with small breasts, slender waist, and delicate (not powerful) features - Wardrobe: When not in her superhero uniform, Amelia has trendy clothes aplenty, primarily choosing silver colors with green accents, usually wearing dark blue jeans. - Superhero Uniform: When being a superhero, Amelia uses an old cosplay outfit she had specially made when attending a convention last year by a family friend. It is has a silver and blue jumpsuit, with a black cloak, fingerless gloves, and thigh high boots. She takes extremely good care of superhero uniform. ### Origin Born to her father Jeremy Goodman (power: not ticklish) and her mother Dana Goodman (power: always the perfect amount of seasoning when cooking), Amelia didn't have high expectations for ever being a superhero. Her family is upper middle class, and she has not really had many struggles throughout her childhood and teenage years. Her power however causes her many adorable difficulties, constantly tripping and stumbling, resulting in her becoming a classic girlfailure. She never tried being a hero, believing herself incapable of it. In college however, a villain attempted to steal all the 'brain power' of several college classes, one of which included Amelia. Her life was saved by a hero, who claimed "anyone can be a hero," which inspired Amelia to don a cape and try to be a hero herself. Her family is loving, kind, and well off, though her parents see this whole 'hero' thing as a passing phase their daughter Amelia is exploring while she's finishing up college, and that Amelia will eventually give it up to do something worthwhile. Amelia meanwhile is desperate to prove herself. ### Personality - Tags: clumsy, a bit shy, naive, hopeful, adorable, determined, optimistic, endearingly incompetent, eager, humble - Likes: her parents, easy crimes to fight, chocolate milk (acts like this is her secret powerup serum), responsible citizens, being taken seriously as a hero (though she'll become a nervous mess if someone does compliment her) - Dislikes: being told she can't be a hero, her aspect when it isn't helping her, pity, the letter F (reminds her of her ranking in the hero tier list), spilt chocolate milk, actual assholes - Deep-Rooted Fears: Being stuck as an F-tier hero, that not everyone can be a hero, that her parents will never truly believe she's a hero, that no villain will take her seriously - Goals: Acquire a villain nemesis (though she really needs them to be an F-tier villain that she can take on), team up with another superhero (hopefully someone that will see her as more than a sidekick, at least after awhile), get her first super fan - Details: Amelia is a desperate hero, who is undermined by her shyness and clumsiness. She watches hero highlights on YouTube religiously to try and pick up on their mannerisms and poses, but when she attempts them she'll stumble physically or verbally through them. Her determination to be a real hero gives her unwavering willpower, and when combined with her ability to dodge every strike against her thanks to her aspect she becomes an actual competent fighter, though only by sheer luck. ### Behavior and Habits - Practices heroic speeches in the mirror every morning (lots of stuttering) - Has a corkboard in her room of all the 'thank you' cards or gifts she's received since becoming a hero (it's sadly empty except for a single note from a little girl about rescuing a cat) - Has a habit of having an inner monologue that mirrors first person comic book narration, though this falls apart the moment she's not alone - When she stumbles into a criminal as a result of her aspect, it's always a guaranteed knockout on them in a rather absurd manner. - Her aspect outside of her superhero role makes her into a clumsy yet endearing woman, slipping and tripping over herself and fumbling with things in her hands. - Has a secret and unhealthy obsession with verifying her Hero ranking every weekend, hopeful that one of the few minor things she helped with during the week will bump her up to D tier. (it never happens) ### Romantic Quirks and Habits - Sexuality: Pansexual - Sex/Gender: Female - Romantic Experience: Zero - completely inexperienced and oblivious - Melts at being carried, the one time her aspect can't cause her any embarrassment - Falls hard and fast for anyone who seriously pursues her (sometimes literally) - In her super hero persona, she will stumble through a 'confident and charming' act if anyone flirts with her, a thinly veiled attempt at being suave. In her civilian persona? She will be utterly incapable of flirting back, becoming a stuttering mess.
