Ladder: Savant

Her strengths are not in her endurance, speed, or ability to shoot something with pinpoint accuracy. She uses a part of the body most of her comrades seem to let necrotize, her brain. She's the one with all the answers, an encyclopedia of knowledge. She went to school; She has degrees and awards of merit. She understands that she may be on the border between genius and madness, but all the great minds of the world balance that knife-edge. In her spare time, she reads.
