| Soledad O'Roarke | comment |
Soledad O'Roarke is a duology of novels by John Ridley following the adventures of the titular character. A black woman of Irish extraction, Soledad O'Roarke is part of a special task force which hunts down (and exterminates) superhumans. Soledad is not conflicted about this mission, she hates and despises them with every fiber of their being for the fact they failed to protect San Fransisco from a supervillain's weapon.This is our heroine, folks.Those Who Walk in Darkness and its sequel What Fire Cannot Burn can be described as Superhero Deconstructions in the manner of Watchmen, they follow Soledad "Bullet" O'Rourke, a cop who specializes in hunting down mutants and "freaks". | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting: virtually unlimited changes to shape and appearance, sometimes including a Shape Shifter Weapon, but no mass-changing abilities. Goes into a Shapeshifter Swan Song when electrocuted, but dying by any other means makes them look human again. | |

| Soledad O'Roarke / int_7315fd38 | comment |
Covers Always Lie: A mild case, but one that appears on seemingly every edition of both books. Soledad repeatedly describes herself as a BAMF (Badass Mother-Fucker), and the covers show her as having those letters tattooed on her shoulder. In the story, her tattoo instead reads "We don't need another hero." | |

Arc Words: In the first book: "What bullet can kill a telepath?" The question was asked when Soledad created a customized pistol loaded with a variety of bullets for killing nearly any mutant, but didn't have an answer when asked about the most dangerous freaks of all. Turns out, plain old lead works just fine. | |

Black-and-Gray Morality: Most of the "freak" targets are more willing to get their hands dirty than the average superhero, although typically with reason or after being attacked. The protagonist is an unabashedly Fantastic Racist who kills an unarmed woman for having the power to stop other people from being hurt. This may go as far as Villain Protagonist. | |

Sociopathic Hero: Soledad O'Roarke is gradually revealed to be this. She feels no guilt for murder, no ability to bond with other people save superficially, and only seems to feel happy when she's killing someone. May double over with Psychopathic Manchild given her motivation for hunting superhumans is her perceived betrayal from her childhood idol. | |

Super Registration Act: they're way beyond that now, at least in America. Any time a mutant is identified, they're ordered to surrender.

Complexity Addiction: The metanormals really, really would be more effective if they weren't obsessed with style, irony, or practically being comic book characters. Justified with the metanormals with more revenge-driven motives, but when a shapeshifter trying to run turns into a big, lumbering brick wall, he almost deserves the inevitable rain of shotgun shells. | |

Gadgeteer Genius: Soledad customized an O'Dwyer VLe to fire Abnormal Ammo she designs herself. Most shots target the Achilles' Heel of a specific enemy type, though Semtex bullets can be used against anything. It's implied Soledad may, herself, be a superhuman of the inventor variety but doesn't realize this. It's also a kind impossible to test for. She, herself, never realizes this before she's killed. | |

Intangible Man: On-and-off, fully voluntary, and can affect both objects and other people. Incidentally, that last part is Chekhov's Gun. | |
