Cariba Heine :: Character Guides

RIKKI is ‘different’. The new girl in town with the mysterious past. Up until now she’s been a loner. She’s edgy, aloof and smart. There’s something about the cool, extreme sport adrenaline junky Rikki that is disturbing, but attractive at the same time. But can she be trusted? You never know quite where you stand with Rikki. She’s the one most likely to use her powers for personal gain – and get everyone into trouble! She rubs Emma the wrong way every time.

Rikki’s solutions to problems are fresh and original. She’s observant, tough and genuinely brave. She’s also spontaneous and a fast thinker. She won’t back down from a fight and is very motivated – particularly where injustice rears it’s head. She’ll really fight for what’s right when she believes in a cause.

RIKKI’S POWER

As if to symbolize her repressed anger, Rikki gets the power to boil water just by thinking about it. It’s dangerous. It’s powerful. And sometimes it’s lucky that Emma has the power to cancel out Rikki’s plans before she does any real damage.
