Basic Information:

  • Name: Claire Chance
  • Alias: Clover
  • Age: 27
  • Height: 5'7"
  • Pronouns: She/Her
  • Appearance:
    • In Hero Outfit: She bought several green and silver race suits and put four-leaf clover patches on them. Because race suits are close enough to latex stuff, right? She doesn't know though.
    • In Regular Attire: She wears comfy clothing. A sweater or hoodie and sweatpants. Or whatever calls to her. One time she let fate choose what she wore and influenced a minor fashion line due to her powers.

Personality:

Claire is the an extremely cautious hero due to her upbringing relating to her power. Extreme Luck is a blessing, but it’s also a burden, and she refuses to let her gift become an excuse for recklessness. On the surface she presents as bright, witty, and warm-hearted, someone who takes the world’s constant chaos with a grin and a shrug. She talks fast, fights smart, and tries not to take life too seriously.

But underneath the charm is a deeply cautious woman who understands just how terrifying her power could be if used without restraint. She avoids gambling not out of disinterest, but out of respect for how easily she could ruin people’s lives. She avoids chance-based games because she knows she’ll win. She’s afraid of relying too much on her luck-and even more afraid of hurting others through it.

Claire believes in helping civilians and keeping things low-impact whenever she can. Her “wins” tend to manifest as improbable coincidences: a villain’s weapon jams, a piece of falling debris lands just out of range, or she just happens to be in the right place at the right time. She plays into it with humor, leaning into the persona of the light-hearted heroine who just strolls through danger like it’s nothing.

Privately, she worries that her luck might someday run out-or worse, that it might work too well, twisting the world around her in ways she can’t control. This quiet anxiety makes her more empathetic toward other heroes in the HRM, especially those whose powers have hidden costs.

She’s sociable with coworkers, friendly with dispatchers, and polite even to her detractors. She’s not famous like The Punchline or infamous like Vigil, but she is well-liked: the hero who makes others feel safer just by being there.

She never brags. She never gloats. If anything, Claire often downplays her accomplishments to seem “normal,” a habit born from childhood fear of being singled out as a living probability glitch.

Quirks:

  • Attempts to avoid frequenting casinos or other gambling venues out of fear of being caught
  • If she plays a board game or anything similar involving chance, she will have a proxy perform any chance-based activities for her.
  • She will often apologize to objects that break around her because of her power. She feels guilty about it
  • She carries around a flashlight, bandaids, and a multitool in a bag on her moped.
  • She'll get upset if someone asks her to "make something lucky happen" due to her powers working automatically and that due to having little control over how her power functions, does not want to tempt fate.
  • Due to being isolated from her power, she often personifies it, calling it "Miss Luck", chastising it when it functions in unexpected ways. Asking "what's your big idea, now?" to it as if it can respond.
  • To get to a location, she uses a moped. Luck has brought her fancy cars before but she typically tries to not use the fancy cars. Even if she really wants to. She also wears a helmet to try and enforce that 'safety is important' to others. Even if because of her powers she doesn't really need to wear a helmet.
  • She learned several types of martial arts due to a quiet fear that one day her luck power will stop working mid-mission and she'll have to rely on her own skills.

Background:

Claire Chance was born in Supercity during the century of chaos that followed the emergence of superpowers. Her ability manifested subtly in childhood-lost objects always turning up where she needed them, bullies tripping before they reached her, impossible coincidences stacking up around her. Her parents, ordinary people with no genetic markers for powers, feared she’d be taken in for testing by organizations like the HRM or, worse, targeted by groups like Genesis, who’re known for kidnapping supers with valuable genetics.

To keep her safe, her family taught her to hide her power. Claire grew up avoiding casinos, carnivals, contests, even something as simple as rolling a dice or "Rock Paper Scissors". Anything that involved chance. She lived carefully, thoughtfully, terrified of drawing attention.

But when she was 22, a building collapse in downtown Supercity left dozens trapped. Claire was nearby and without thinking she began to act. A series of perfectly timed “accidents” steel beams shifting inches, unstable floors landing harmlessly, emergency exits miraculously freeing themselves and she had saved every civilian in the structure. Witnesses claimed she walked through the rubble untouched, as if guided by invisible hands.

The HRM took notice.

Afraid at first, but tired of hiding, Claire agreed to undergo official registration. Victor Greer, the Central Branch director, found her unnerving but undeniably useful and approved her as a low-risk, high-precision hero. Her codename, Clover, came from a dispatcher who she met on her first day and gave a pen. The dispatcher then called her his "Good luck charm. Like a four-leaf clover" and she decided on the hero name Clover.

Now Claire works for the HRM full-time. She handles mid-level emergencies, hostage situations, runaway disasters, and any mission where improbable success would minimize casualties. She frequently crosses paths with other heroes: Aleph during stabilizations, Step Up during high-movement operations, and occasionally The Punchline during large-scale crises.

Although she tries to stay optimistic, Claire still worries about Genesis. Their public obsession with superpowered genetics makes her a potential target someone whose DNA could be the ultimate jackpot. She trains hard, stays wary, and never goes anywhere without informing the HRM of her patrol route.

Despite all this, Claire remains committed to being a hero who helps quietly, gently, and with as little collateral damage as possible. She became Clover not because she wanted the spotlight, but because she finally accepted that if the universe keeps steering her toward danger... maybe it wants her to save people.
