History: Clea's full history is as yet unrevealed. However, it is known that she is the daughter of Orini, the most loyal disciple of Dormammu, the ruler of the Dark Dimension, and Dormammu's sister, Umar. This essentially makes Clea an heir to the Dark Dimension's throne, should both Dormammu and Umar be deposed. A kind soul at heart, Clea has spent much time amongst the populace of the Dark Dimension, and feels personally responsible for them. At present, Clea is not aware that Umar is her mother, having been raised by her father.

It has been theorized that Clea is thousands of Earth years old; however, she appears to be a young woman in her mid-20s. She first encountered the Earth sorcerer Doctor Stephen Strange when he first ventured into the Dark Dimension, and was instantly attracted to him. She soon discovered that her father and Dormammu considered Doctor Strange to be their enemy, although she wasn't entirely sure why. Clea aided Strange covertly at first, until Dormammu discovered her actions and banished her to another dimension.

As fate would have it, that other dimension was Earth's dimension. She appeared on Doctor Strange's doorstep, and was taken in by Strange's friend and housemate, Wong, who is an adept sorcerer in his own right. Strange agreed to become her mentor, and she and Strange swiftly began a romance which still continues.

Clea has since aided Strange in several of his adventures, proving to be a staunch ally.
Age: Indeterminate; appears 26.
Height: 5' 9".
Weight: 175 lbs.
Eyes: Blue.
Hair: Silver.
Uniform: Purple long-sleeved leotard, black leggings with purple circular patterns, purple gloves, black shoes with a three-inch heel, light purple sash around her waist.
Strength Level: Clea's bone and muscle mass are denser than a human's, giving her greater strength than a human of her apparent age, height, and build would have. However, this strength is not superhumanly strong; Clea is only about one and a half times as strong as a normal human of her build who engages in moderate regular exercise.
Known Superhuman Powers: Clea is an adept sorceress whose half-Faltine nature gives her greater potential power with magical effects relating to energy – such as eldritch bolts – than Earth-born sorcerers. Like her mentor, Dr. Strange, Clea's magic is derived from three main sources: innate mental powers, ambient magical energies, and calling upon extradimensional entities for energy. Unlike human sorcerers, Clea can also generate magical power herself for various effects.

Clea is not as skilled yet in the magical arts as her mentor or her parents. This is mainly due to a lack of training than a lack of potential.
Other Abilities: Clea is an accomplished swordswoman.

Design Notes:

1. The Magery 2 price combines the price of an unmodified Magery 0 [5] with the modified Magery 2 (Solitary Ceremonial, +10%) [22]. It just looked wrong when placing the two on the sheet together. In the Marvel Universe, it is possible to increase one's Magery level through study.

2. Clea's One-Realm Only Magery is due to her half-Faltine nature. For the Energy Realm and any of its sub-realms (Electricity, Fire, etc), treat her as having Magery 3 instead of Magery 2.

3. I am uncertain as to how to classify the Dark Dimension's tech level, as it lies too far outside the standard tech level progression to properly gauge due to the overwhelming prevalence of magic. Because of this, I have not adjusted Clea's native Tech Level at all.
