History: Susan Storm is the oldest of two children born to physician Franklin Storm. Growing up, her interest in her father's work led him to train her as his assistant from a young age. By the age of 18, she had already become a registered nurse and paramedic, despite not having gone through any official schooling.
When her father was hired by NASA to supervise the medical experts for the "Fantastic Voyage" project, a manned test of an experimental hyperspace drive system, he pulled some strings to get Susan to join him. It was then that she first met Reed Richards, the scientist who worked out the theories behind the drive system. Despite being eleven years his junior, Sue became enamored with the man, and a romance blossomed. (For their first date, she took him scuba diving.)
As the day of the first flight of Reed's experimental ship, the Fantastic, approached, Sue volunteered to be the on-board medic. During the first test of the hyperspace drive, what was supposed to be a quick run from Earth to Mars and back, the shields on board proved unable to withstand the unusual radiation of hyperspace. The four crew members – Reed, Sue, her brother Johnny (who was the ship's mechanic), and pilot Ben Grimm – were bombarded with radiation the ship could not keep out. It was only due to a last-minute jury-rig of Johnny's that the ship was able to return to Earth.
Not long afterwards, Sue, along with the other three that were on board the Fantastic, manifested her powers, with Sue taking the name Invisible Woman. Not long afterwards, she accepted Reed's proposal to form the super-team known as the Fantastic Four.

Strength Level: The Invisible Woman possesses the normal human strength of a woman her age, height, and build who engages in moderate regular exercise.
Known Superhuman Powers: The Invisible Woman has the psionic ability to manipulate photons for a variety of effects, including the rendering of herself and other objects invisible, and the construction of invisible force fields.
By a simple act of concentration, she can cause all wavelengths of visible, infrared, and ultraviolet light to bend around her without distortion, giving the overall effect that she is invisible. Through practice, she has learned to extend this ability to other people and objects. She is able to see normally even when she is invisible, as are anyone else she is making invisible at the time. The means by which she sees while invisible is instinctive, as she was able to see the first time she turned invisible.
Theoretically, she is able to turn other objects that have been made invisible by other means visible by using her own invisibility powers, but she has yet to succeed in doing so.
By concentrating on the photons in the far ultraviolet frequencies, she is able to turn them into solid, invisible constructs, which she can form in a number of shapes.
Note that Sue is not able to alter the wavelengths of the photons she manipulates, which would enable her to change their color. Whether she can learn to do so at a later date is unknown.
Abilities: Susan Storm has medical knowledge rivaling that of a practicing physician.

Role-Playing Notes:
Sue is in many ways the heart of the Fantastic Four, keeping Reed grounded in reality while helping Ben cope with his altered body. She tends to "den mother" Johnny at times, much to his chagrin.
