Background

Monique Diallo began working for Africa Force 4 when it first opened its doors and is one of the few support staff to have survived the attack which effectively shut down the team. Africa Force 4 is now an outpost for refugees, particularly uberhuman refugees, and Monique handles their stories, catalogues their histories and tries to help them find other services in the city and beyond.

When the Sons of Set attacked the Africa Force 4 headquarters, Monique found that her minor uberhuman abilities saved her life. She was caught in a powerful blast but survived: her body was coursing with unspent energy. She helped some other office workers to safety but couldn't make herself return to the battle. She had a hard time overcoming that guilt even though she knew that she would have been killed too, just as the superhero protectors were. She knew that if Shaft and his team could not stand up to the attackers then she would have been sacrificing herself to the slaughter.

And in a way she did stand against the attack. She continues to work for Africa Force 4, even though its public heroes have been killed or incapacitated, and it is Monique perhaps, more than the others, who is keeping the organisation running.
Personality
Monique has a personality which cannot be ignored. She is bigger than life, has an infectious smile and, although she is not an aggressive person, she does have a tendency to put people in their place. When she is distributing orders she does so with a smile and a maternal all-knowing nod of the head. She is a very generous woman and takes the plight of refugees very seriously: perhaps the only thing that can temporarily diminish her super-positive attitude to life.
Quote
"What do you mean 'I have not made an appointment'? Do you think we let any would-be oober-human terrorist in here?"
Powers

Monique is a low-level uber with the ability to absorb the energy of impacts, whether it be from a marauding uber or a fall from a ladder. This absorbed energy is processed by her body and transformed into physical strength which has been known to rise to uberhuman levels. She also possesses some resistance to injury, but Monique is not a combatant by any means. She is an office worker who will keep well away from any uberhuman conflict.
Appearance

Monique is the smiling face of welcome for Africa Force 4 and is the first point of contact between the organisation and the public. She is a short, well-rounded woman who wears thick-rimmed glasses on the end of her nose and wears copious amounts of jewellery. She has campaigned strongly against an Africa Force 4 uniform as she prefers her own style.
