In light of Wicker's comments...
Just a few notes as I wrote much of this already, and then it went away.
Doctor Kaylin De Vointreau, Lady Vointreau, Kay-lee, The Weeping Woman
She is an overseas student here to study with a great man in the field of genetics. They practise gene-splicing to cure diseases. The great man gets kidnapped by terrorists who leave a bomb for Kay-lee. She chooses to inject herself with Solution Fifteen, and becomes a ravenous blooddrinker.
The Transformation turns her from a dirty-blonde with hair piled up on her head, glasses for her farsightedness, and an abstracted look as she considers crazy ideas that might just work, and into a panther-like female with straight silver hair, cat's eyes, claws, and fangs.
During the daytime, she is herself, but with emotions heightened. At night, she may be The Weeping Woman who's emotions are way over the top. Or she may become her when she is pushed too far,a nd sh eloses control.
She's got a bloodhound nose, advanced strength and agility, and she's nauseated by sunlight.
She tracked down the terrorists, killed them except for one who had a gun to her mentor's head. In her enthusiasm, she charged. Her mentor was shot. The only way to save him was to take him to the university hospital. And then an injection to give strength with S15, and then before it could fully take effect,a nd kill the weakened man, the plan was to put him in an experimental cryostasis chamber.
She took him to the ER, and wept the whole time in an extremis of guilt. And that is how she earned her name.
Wicker asked about the creation of Morbius, the Living Vampire. Inspired by that comment, I present The Weeping Woman. Here, I've created a gene-spliced Vampiress of great passion, and a desire for right that battles with her desire for havoc. When the two combine, its an awesome thing.
Name: The Weeping Woman, Doctor Kaylin De Vointreau, Kay-lee, Lady Vointreau
Kay-lee is a haphazzardly attractive female with piled up dirty-blonde hair, glasses for her far-sightedness, a labcoat, and mis-matched clothes. She is from Switzerland, and can speak French, English, and German with ease. Her family owns an estate in France from which she draws her title. However, she relies on a professional estate manager to handle that having no clue how to deal with ordering fertilizer, and negotiating with tenant farmers.
Instead, she spent her time in a laboratory to the despair of her aunt and uncle in Switzerland (Her parents were killed in a terror strike when she was very young.) They had hopes of a young socialite, but they got a nerd. So when she found herself spending more time at the lab helping others than learning herself, she told them she was going to America to meet the great Hans Schractman who had won a Nobel prize for his genetics work on blood diseases they were relieved.
Once there, she took to her job with ease, and soon was being invited home to Hans and Lydia, his wife of forty years, where they would all argue together about genetics with some other guests while eating Lydia's BBQ. Lydia was a Texan cowgirl, and underneath her aw-shucks attitude she had a very sharp brain. Of course, it had been over thirty years since she had gotten on a horse to do barrel racing, but she was happy where she was.
And then terrorists came to find the Great Doctor, and take him, and make him build weapons for them. They left a bomb in the research lab to catch the police or whoever would investigate. It caught Kay-lee.
She heard the beeping, saw the destroyed and ransacked lab, and flung herself away, only to be caught by the explosion. In a great deal of pain, and aware that in a doctor's opinion she should just lie there a few minutes until help came to the Gene Lab at her University, she dragged herself into the fitfully burning building. She went to the safe at the back, and opened it.
Inside, she took out Solution 15, their latest test batch. It was part of a project to create supersoldiers for the Army. It was still a long way from completion. Aware that others would never blame her for flinching now, to test something never tested locally, but she saw the sweet, happy face of Lydia. She saw Hans in her mind being tied to a chair and beaten by men with half of his intelligence, and none of his integrity.
She injected the syringe. Gene-splicing technology ripped through her body, and she screamed sufficient to shatter glass. She fell to the ground, and then rose a different creature.
Her hair was straight and silver. Her stance was that of a panther. New muscles rippled under her skin. Her eyes were cat's eyes. And fangs filled her mouth, and claws tipped her fingers.
She took from the locker a black combat suit that was in theory supposed to go with the 'warform' they had been creating. Now she stood ready for war.
Seeing in the dark, she sought out the smell of others. And she traced them through the destroyed lab. She found she was able to catalog each smell, and then remove it from consideration. Soon, she had the terrorists's smells.
Their trail took her out back to a sewer manhole, and after opening it, she dropped in, and landed cat-like. She set off down the sewer....
And the rest is as above.
I'll need to merge the two, and to put up her stats.
Kay-lee

All emotion control checks are Difficult for her. A failed emotion check requires another one a minute later unless the situation has radically changed so that she can calm down. Two failed emotion control checks in a row cause her to make the one minute long transformation to The Weeping Woman.
As The Weeping Woman, she is still herself, but changed.
All Guilt and Remorse related emotion control checks are Difficult with a +5 penalty to the dice roll. All Anger related emotion control checks are Difficult. Other emotion control checks are Simple unless circumstances otherwise necessitate it.
Failure means she must give vent to her emotions. A modest failure might be resolved by destroying a sign. A greater failure might involve self-beratement and hysterical weeping. A massive failure is going to involve violence either directed at herself or others.
Righteous Fury: She has difficulty in controlling her anger. She struggles to do the right thing rather than lash out. However, when she is convinced that lashing out is the right thing, she has such joy in it, and feels herself a servant of Higher Powers. She strikes with greater power and precision.
This is a M 1@4 Bonus Check skill held at 1@7.

Persuasion 1@6. Yes, it drops. One look at her is enough to warn people that she might not be wholly trustworthy or sane.
Charisma 2@2
Animal Magnetism 2@3. She goes from easy on the eyes to Wowwwww in a soft, respectful tone of voice.

Run at Traffic Speeds B 3@8 at 1@8 SAL.
See Infrared B 0@5 NOTE: THIS IS A GUESS. The SAL is 1@9.
Bloodhound Tracking: B 0@1 Gas and Particle Sensitivity at 2@8 sensitivity. She can track as a bloodhound can.
Scent Discrimination: A variant of B 0@6 Pitch Discrimination is held at 1@10. She can ignore the unwanted scents, and focus in on the wanted scent to make it much easier to track. When she does this, the other scents cease to register in her brain.
Use Claws and Fangs is close enough to Use Martial Arts Weapon as Part of Body B 7@1. She has it at SAL 1@10.
Heal By Ingesting Human Protein is a B 10@3 skill which she has at 1@8. It requires the recent consumption of either blood or blood and muscle tissue from a human or a pig. The tissue must be alive when consumed. Her body is able to reuse it to patch holes in herself, and heal other damage.
Berserk Attack is a B 7@3 skill of Intensified Damage at 1@9 SAL.
Blooddominance: Specific Limited Physical Immunity is B 10@3 which she has at 2@1 SAL. Her blood is so dominant that in the Weeping Woman form she is largely immune to any sort of blood or tissue borne biohazzard. She can eat trichinosis infected pig, or malaria infected human without harm.
