Homerun’s power allows her to touch a person or object and that spot becomes less durable for a period of five hours. That durability gets distributed into Homerun and her equipment. The longer she touches something the weaker that thing gets. Eventually this allows her to break steel or push her hand through concrete as though it were wet paper. Importantly it only impacts the area touched. | |||
She can extend her power to an object she is holding, swinging a bat at someone causing the spot that is struck to become weaker as though she herself were using her power directly. This only works through one instance, such as her clothes and an object she is touching, to a reach of 6'. Her power only allows her to gain durability if she is draining it from something more durable than she currently is. In general it takes her one to two hits to steal the durability of hardwood and three to four hits for steel, scaling upwards as things are more durable. For the purposes of prolonged contact a second is equal to a single strike. | |||

Yvonne woke first, her side of the car left mostly intact due to the angle of the crash. She was dazed, drunk, and covered in cuts. She slowly tried to assess the situation. Sammy was... Bleeding. A lot. Charlotte's legs were pinned by Sammy's seat and one of her arms was twisted up badly. | |||
She was struggling to think, more focused more on her scholarship. College. The championship these three were supposed to win. Charlotte was slowly coming to, but the screaming was so dull.

Yvonne was a star shortstop for Freefall Memorial Academy in 2019. She has a younger sister, Lilly, an older brother, James, as well as both of her parents alive and well, Alex and Linette.

Since that fateful day she continued to play and did get a scholarship to CU Denver, which she accepted gratefully given the stigma that had surrounded her.

Bat in hand she swung hard into the crook. When reporters made it to the scene a bystander commented “You really hit that one outta the park!” The newspaper featured the cape Homerun the next day.
