portrayed by

Olivia Wilde

Lucille was born to Mary and Benjamin Ryans on January 2, 1989. From the beginning her parents knew that she was a special child. From the time that she learned how to read, Lucille or “LuLu” as her mother and father came to call her always had a book in front of her. This along with her interest and then love in gymnastics made for Lucille to be a smart and wholesome girl overall. As Lucille grew up, she knew that she didn’t want to disappoint her family.

As Lucille went through school, she was often picked on by the other kids because she was always reading during recess, or practicing her gymnastics move. This didn’t last long, as Lucille had to learn that if she didn’t stand up for herself then nobody else would. So she had gotten into a few fights at school but nothing big, her parents grounded her a few times and she didn’t really like to disappoint them and so instead of fighting. She used her words and she bluffed.. and spread lies about her bullies, knocking them off of their power pedestals.

When Lucille entered high school, her looks started to change. It was due to her growing up that her looks changed and she started to gain more attention from boys in school. Though she still was a bookworm in spirit, in high school. She adopted a whole other persona, the popular girl. This girl knew what to wear, how to look and what parties to go too. (When her parents let her out of the house). Lucille had soon risen through the ranks of school. Also, in her sophomore year in high school she was spotted by an modeling agency while she worked in the local clothes store she worked at as a part time job. After much prodding and pleading, her parents allowed her to start a modeling career. On the conditions that she kept up with her school work and that all the money that she made from the modeling would go to a savings account, since she didn’t really need to touch it anyway. Lu readily agreed and a young star was born.

When Lucille had graduated high school, her mother and father asked her what school she wanted to attend. She told them she had declined her acceptance into the schools she had gotten into because she was offered the chance to go overseas and model there. Her parents were not happy but there was not much they could do to stop her and so she left overseas. Her first stop was Paris, France. While her parents and she were fighting sort of, Lucille always sent home her photos and articles that had been written about her. It was the night of a fashion show in London that Lucille received startling news, a bomb had went off in New York, destroying most of Midtown. Her stomach dropped as she thought about her family. As soon as she could, Lucille flew home. Only to hear from her father, that her mother was dead.

The months that followed after her mother’s death left Lucille feeling empty and without purpose. She couldn’t believe that her mother was gone, and she felt so much guilt, wondering if she would have been home and going to school, maybe her mother would have been visiting her and not being near the blast. It was this blaming of herself and emptiness that led Lucille to run away from home, she left a note for her father and then left the country again. To try and do some more stuff with modeling.

She modeled again for a couple of years, not wanting to think about home and life there. She succeeded in almost not thinking about it. But in her dreams and nightmares, she would see her mother. She would dream about what happened to her mother. The nightmares had gotten so bad that she decided that it was time to go back home and face her nightmares, this was late 2009. To finally try and get over the grief of losing her mother. Weekly therapist appointments helped and she was on anti-depressive medication. She wasn’t doing anything to have much fun in the beginning of her time back in the city, until she walked by a bar and entered and was offered a job. The owner liked her look, said the kids would go crazy for her. That bar was Old Lucy’s and she started to gain her life back with the atmosphere at the bar, it was breathing life back into her. One shift at a time.

Lucille is a pretty cool girl. She tries to stay level-headed through most situations but she isn’t a doormat. Lu is pretty close to her family, particularly after her mother’s death. She tires to be there for them as much as she can. Lucille has been going through a bout of depression lately and is seeing a therapist to help out. Nightmares about her mother’s death plague her often. On the outside she projects being a semi-bold and confident young woman, though on the inside she has a lot of pain that she is going through.

Lu's personality changes and becomes more and more complex as time goes on. She's a shape-shifter of sorts in terms of temperament and mood. When she was younger, she was a bookworm that wasn't all that social. In high school, after she had learned in middle school that book worms weren't very well received she morphed into the popular beauty queen, though still keeping her love for books and knowledge close to her. This has always been Lu's way, she will make compromises, but in the end they never really do seem like compromises to her. Because she always gets what she wants in the end.

Although not a very religious person, she has taken to prayer to her mother in times of need. Lu would describe herself more spiritual if anything. Not really believing in God seeing how fucked up the world is. Other times she wants to believe that there's a God just so she can blame him for everything that she and the rest of the world has been going through. Uncomfortable at best with conversations having to deal with God and an cosmic all knowing being, Lucille brushes conversations of the this subject off with laughs and jokes.

In light of recent events, Lucille has proven to be a very driven and determined person. Once she gets going, it's like trying to stop the Juggernaut. Next to nothing can stop the young woman once she starts something, and she feels sorry for you if you're in her way from protecting her family or someone close to her. Her mother's approval at times is what drives her the most, makes her want to be the best at whatever she is doing and if she fails, her mind allows her to think that somewhere her mother is shaking her head, disappointed in Luc.

Lucille always feels as if she's the one having to prove herself to everyone. Seeing as people think a former model is good for nothing. She has a total lack of confidence that she hides with self confidence. Always feeling on the edge of family matters or that's she's the last to know thing she feels like an outsider in her own family. She was a former drug addict, addicted to her meds for her depression and anxiety. She has an overwhelming sense of wanting to better herself and find her true calling in life. Not prone to letting people in easily or really showing her emotions to anyone that she doesn't really know. Lu can sometimes come off standoffish. She's the biggest social introvert ever. Though she likes social interaction to a degree, she doesn't like to get to close to people. Not trusting many people these days and becoming more and more moody as time goes on.

A new fear but the most powerful of maybe all of her fears is the one that she dreams about often. Losing control of herself and her ability. Becoming some mad woman that hurts people for the fun of it or isn't able to ever touch anyone she loves again due to not being able to reign her power in. Though she deduces it to be part of an over-active imagination and not really something that could possibly happen. She fears it greatly, afraid that she might hurt someone she cares about with her ability. Which in turn, makes her afraid of her ability, though also obsessively curious with finding out as much as she can about her ability and other people's. It's much like a love/hate relationship. She wants desperately to control the beast that lives within her, the thing they call her ability. A blessing and a curse in her eyes.

Lucille is learning a whole new kind of independence and she's struggling slightly with doing many many things all on her own. One thing that she can say for sure, is that she's growing into her own person more than ever now. Not really depending on her family or others to do what she wants to be done. She's throwing herself out there and aggressively set on proving that she can take care of herself to everyone around her.

Lucille Ryans has the ability to intuitively manipulate the human body's natural rhythm and biological functions with a touch. As long as Lucille maintains physical contact with a subject she can manipulate any of the body's natural functions including heart rate and functions of the central nervous system. Lucille can slow a person's heart rate and respiration down to the point where they appear to be dead, speed up their heart-rate and imbue them with adrenaline, or place them in a state of deem REM sleep for as long as she remains in direct skin-to-skin contact with them.

In affecting the central nervous system, Lucille can activate or deactivate pain sensors, allowing her to turn someone's ability to physical feel any sensation on or off but she cannot produce sensations or otherwise "trick" the body. Lucille can sever the connection of any of the five senses in this fashion, such as taste, touch, sight and sound as long as she is remaining in contact with an individual.

However, Lucille's ability cannot override the body's natural self-defense mechanisms. She could not stop a man's heart or arrest his respiration all together, she cannot turn off a person's brain and put them into a vegetative state, nor can she induce any form of lethal effect from her touch. Some practical applications of her power include:

Slowing of blood flow and heart rate to reduce bleeding in an injury.
Negate any of the five senses; removing all tactile stimulation including pain, induce blindness or deafness, remove the sense of taste or smell.
Induce a state of restful sleep.

Lucille's ability does not help accelerate things beyond the normal human capacity. She cannot make someone heal faster or do things that they could not normally do outside of the bounds of their body's physical limitations. All functions of her power cease immediately once she loses physical contact and begin to regulate themselves normally afterward. However in the case of induced sleep, an already tired person may continue to sleep, but can be woken up normally if she is not touching them."

Daddy
	Benjamin Allen Ryans - Stern but loving. Hard ass but kind to his daughters. Over the years Lucille and her father have bumped heads over many different things about Lucille's life. Though her hard exterior and projection of being okay doesn't phase her father. He sees right through her act, and that makes her love him so much more. At other times it makes it wish that he could be fooled like all the rest. As of lately, Lucille and her father's relationship has gotten a little better. The news that her father was a agent of the Company all of her life rocked her to her core, but she's since forgiven him for the secrecy over all the years. Lucille wants a better relationship for herself and her father, but it would seem that they both hinder that at times.
Sissy
	Delia Marie Ryans - Lu's younger sister. The calm one, Lucille and Delia have had a rivalry since the day Delia was born. While things had started out to be just simple sibling rivalry when they were younger, as they have grown older. Lucille feels this overwhelming tension and actual distaste between the two. She feels as if Delia blames her for a lot of things, things she couldn't have controlled. To say that the two aren't exactly close at the moment.. is an understatement. Lucille doesn't even know who her sister is right now. As of now, Lucille is still wandering in the dark about their relationship but she feels that at least they might be on the right track.
Big Bro
	Bradley Benjamin Russo - When Russo told Lucille that he was her older brother.. she didn't really know what to say.. or how to act. She's in that awkward stage of coming to terms with her father having another child. Though Russo seems to have more daddy issues then she could have ever had. It's sad, really. He was forced to grow up without his dad, Lucille can't imagine what that would feel like. She is though, determined to make a connection and relationship with this man. She just found out that he's engaged. Holy hell, this family is growing into a tribe.

These are Lucille's friends. The people she depends on in time of need when her family can't be there for her.

Tall, Dark and Deadly
	Huruma - Huruma and daddy have a complicated past. Recently she's reentered Ryans life and has made quiet the impression on the girls. She wants to protect the family, she's like family. Lucille respects her a lot and wouldn't ever like to see her hurt.
Deli's Man
	Jaiden Mortlock -Although Lucille has just met Jaiden, she likes him and considers him family already. She thinks that he's great for Delia and he also welcomed her home like she was family. There's also the fact that she met him when she was ten, but it was because some time traveler sent him back and.. yeah, let's not think any harder. Heads will hurt.
A New Friend
	Robyn Quinn - The two met on the beach, as Lucille was crying over the fact that she killed two men. The two seemed to have instantly bonded and with the promise of guitar lessons, they have started to hangout more often. Lu admires Quinn's flashy ability and is very happy that she might finally have a real friend that's a girl, who isn't in her family.
The Lost Friend
	Odessa Price - When Lucille met Odessa, Lu was working at Old Lucy's and Odessa was living there? It was a weird circumstance but Lucille and Odessa hit it off very well in the beginning.

Boss Lady
	Lexington Lane - Lucille needed something to do.. she walked into Lexi's shop and was hired after a ..uh.. rigorous interview process Lu likes her boss already, she seems spunky and fun. After having her place of employment blown up after three days of working there. Lucille learned of Lexi and her brother's more.. dark activities. The bonding experience of almost being blown up together has made these two pretty close. Lucille loves this woman.
Boss Man
	Seamus Brian Lane - This is Lexi's brother. The witty, funny and kind of cute crazy man that likes to make things go boom. Just as she bonded with Lexi through almost being blown up, the same goes for Seamus. He and Lexi's crazy relationship makes Lucille laugh, she knows that she's gonna want to keep Seamus around for a while.. maybe forever actually.

Avery
	Tahir Avery Dunham - Although unable to take him seriously most of the time, Lucille has a special place for Agent Dunham in her heart. Their reunion at first begun with a punch to Tahir's face. Now they are on much better terms. The not hurting each other kinda terms. Except for the fact that he's an total womanizer.

Daddy's Friend/Lucille's Hero
	Noah Bennet - Or Mister Bennet as Lucille calls him, helped to bring the woman home. Rebel directed him to her. Lucille was taught a few things by the man on the way home and she likes Mister Bennet a whole lot. She could see that he was just like her father. Both strong men that are heroes in her opinion. She hopes to see more of the man with the horn-rimmed glasses.
Guardian Angel
	Rebel - This man or entity and Lucille have a long history. He is the reason that she first began to walk into the world of the Evolved and the secret wars going on. He contacted her months ago to help get a small girl away from the government she thought. Then he ignored her to only reveal himself in her time of need again. When she found out that her father made it so that Rebel wouldn't contact her, she was puzzled. Just how deep does this rabbit hole go? Anyways, Rebel is like Lucille's guardian angel, sometimes she's pissed at him. But normally she likes him. She wants to meet him in person one day. She doesn't know that isn't really possible.
The Scruffy One
	Flint Deckard - When Lucille met Deckard, she and her sister had just been kidnapped and then rescued. Now, she's not sure if the reason she made out with Deckard was because she wanted to piss her father off or simply because Deckard is hot. But… she does know that she likes his scruff.
Preggo
	Samara Dunham - Though they have only met once. They both made big impressions on one another. Lucille thought that Sami was some stank that was trying to get all up on Tahir and then Sami said she was pregnant and then Lucille thought she was preggers with Tahir's baby and then Sami yacked some more and then she found out that Sami is actually Tahir's sister. So.. things are awkward.. yep.

Asshole US Marshal
	Lucas Eldridge - The asshole agent who tried to kidnap Lucille for God knows what purpose. He was also the first person to be on the receiving end of her ability. If she sees this man again, she'll be sure to really hurt him. Though she would like to ask him some questions, she knows that isn't possible. She really wants to kick his ass though. Daddy's friend made him explode wheeee~

Ninja Asshat
	Temple - This man has earned himself a real special place in Lucille's heart. He's some kind of speedster or ghost cuz nothing she did touched the guy damn near. After not only coming after Tahir but stabbing him in the chest while wrenching the knife upward right in front of her. A bit of the rage that lives inside her is waiting for another opportunity to fuck this guy's life up. (Why does he have to be so hot though?)
