-------------------------------------------------------------
Super Powers:Physical Transformation: As a result of a blood transfusion from her cousin Bruce Banner, AKA the Hulk, Jennifer Walters is able to alter her physical form into a female version of the Hulk. As She-Hulk, Walter's skin, hair, and eyes all turn green. Her frame also gains another 9 inches in height and 510 lbs of muscle and bone tissue. Unlike her cousin, the Hulk, much of Jennifer's gained musle and bone mass is condensed and several times as dense as that of a human. As a result, though she is noticably much larger than she is in her normal form, she looks much lighter than she actually is. Also unlike the Hulk, or rather certain Hulk incarnations, Jennifer retains her full intelligence and personality in her She-Hulk. Most of the time, Walters is able to control her transformation, enabling her to change back and forth at will.
Superhuman Strength: As She-Hulk, she is proportionally stronger than her Jennifer Walters form. This means that any extra strength gains as Jennifer Walters through intense physical training will be amplified, making her She-Hulk form that much stronger. As a result of her intense training, She-Hulk's strength currently surpasses the base strength levels of the Gray, Savage, and Professor incarnations of the Hulk, at least while they're in a calm emotional state. At her peak, She-Hulk is able to lift in excess of 100 tons. Unlike the Hulk, her strength doesn't fluccuate with surges of adrenaline when she becomes angry. As a result, she is ultimately far less powerful than her cousin. She-Hulk's strength has extended into her highly developed leg muscles, enabling her to leap great distances or heights. She is capable of leaping to a height of over 600 feet and a distance of over 1,000 feet in a single bound.
Superhuman Stamina: She-Hulk's highly advanced musculature produces considerably less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of an ordinary human. She can exert herself at peak capacity for about 24 hours before fatigue begins to impair her performance.
Superhuman Durability: She-Hulk's body is highly resistant to all forms of conventional injury. Her skin is capable of withstanding extreme pressures, temperatures as high as 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit and as low as -190 degrees Fahrenheit, falls from great heights, field-artillery canon shells, and powerful energy blasts without sustaining injury.
Regenerative Healing Factor: Despite her body's high resistance to injury, it is possible to injure her. However, she is capable of rapidly regenerating injuries that result in great tissue damage and blood loss within a matter of minutes. However, she is not capable of regenerating missing limbs or organs. She-Hulk's highly efficient metabolism renders her immune to most drugs and toxins as well as total immunity to all known Earthly diseases.
Body Switch: Thanks to training by the Ovoid alien race, She-Hulk can exchange her physical characteristics and powers with the physical characteristics and powers of another being by simply focusing on a mental image of the person and willing the transfer to take place. The actual intent of the Ovoid skill is to exchange the minds of the user and another being, but it was theorized by the Ovoid who trained the She-Hulk that some factor of her gamma-mutated physiology causes her use of this talent to manifest in a different way. She rarely uses this power; unless she initiates this exchange with another superhuman being, she will become basically human in ability, but still green-skinned and generally recognizable as the She-Hulk, and thus vulnerable to attack, a fact that the super-villainess Titania took advantage of the one time the She-Hulk did use this ability.
Protection Spell (formerly): She-Hulk was granted a protective ability by her Avengers teammate, the Scarlet Witch, when She-Hulk's job required her to spend extended periods of time as Jennifer Walters. The Scarlet Witch cast a spell which rendered anyone intending to harm the She-Hulk incapable of recognizing her as Jennifer Walters. However, the spell actually rendered Jennifer Walters completely undetectable to these individuals. While this had its advantages, it also left Jennifer unable to communicate with certain people whose knowledge or information it was vital for her to acquire. The spell was eventually removed by Dr. Stephen Strange, the Sorcerer Supreme of the Marvel Universe.
Learned Abilities:The She-Hulk is a formidable hand-to-hand combatant, having been trained by Captain America and Gamora.
Even in her Jennifer Walters form, she possesses sufficient skill in the martial arts to dispatch several would-be muggers much larger than she is.
Jennifer Walters is a skilled pilot, as has been shown in multiple issues of Avengers and Fantastic Four.
Extremely intelligent, the She-Hulk is a skilled and experienced attorney. In spite of the character's party-girl image, she is a bona fide intellectual, being one of the few superheroines to have attained an advanced post-baccalaureate degree. Jennifer attended UCLA School of Law, where she was a member of the Order of the Coif, a national merit society for top legal scholars. It is revealed in the Savage She-Hulk that Walters has also attended Harvard Law School; though details are not provided, it is probable that she earned a master of laws (LL.M.) degree at Harvard to complement her juris doctor (J.D.) degree from UCLA. She has shown great versatility in her legal practice, representing criminal defendants, corporations, and even domestic violence victims.
Equipment: none
Weaknesses (Must Have): Exposure to certain wavelengths of radiation at sufficient doses can temporarily inhibit or override her ability to transform between forms. Much like her cousin, Jennifer's psychological state at the time determines how quickly she is able regain control.
Background:
Jennifer Walters, the meek and mousy lawyer cousin of Bruce Banner, was the daughter of Sheriff Morris Walters. Agents of Nicholas Trask, a crime boss who had crossed paths with her father, shot and seriously wounded her on a day when her cousin was in town. Bruce gave her a blood transfusion, as no other donors of her blood type were available; the radioactive blood mutated Jennifer as it had her cousin, transforming her into the She-Hulk.
Although Jennifer was at first savage while in her form as She-Hulk, she eventually gained the same intelligence she had as the normal Jennifer Walters. She quickly came to appreciate the confidence and assertiveness that had come with being She-Hulk. For a long time, she felt more comfortable in her form as She-Hulk than in her "normal" form as Jennifer. But she has gradually grown comfortable in both forms, and realized that she has much to offer the world in both her forms. After a brief solo career, she joined the Avengers and temporarily replaced the Thing in the Fantastic Four.
During her tenure with the Fantastic Four, the She-Hulk had to prevent a radiation leak in a downed S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier. This radiation exposure apparently mutated Jennifer to the point that she could not transform back into her original form. But this was an agreeable turn of events for her, since she preferred her She-Hulk form anyway. It was revealed much later that the "genetic block" was in fact purely psychological, shortly before a similar block locked her in non-Hulk form. That block proved to be temporary.
After the Fantastic Four , the She-Hulk rejoined the Avengers and joined the staff of District Attorney Blake Tower, where she met Louise "Weezi" Mason, formerly the Golden Age super heroine called the Blonde Phantom; during this period, she discovered that Mason had manipulated Towers into hiring She-Hulk so that Mason could again star in a comic book and thus avoid dying of old age. Mason's husband, also a former comic book character, had passed away three years ago, but other, more popular characters from the era, such as Captain America and Namor the Sub-Mariner, were still around.
While doing some legal work for Heroes for Hire, she also went on a few adventures with them and spent some time dating Luke Cage. Later She-Hulk was a member of the short lived hero group the Fantastic Force.
Jennifer currently works as a lawyer for the Superhuman Law division of the New York law firm of Goodman, Lieber, Kurtzberg, & Holliway. Now able to change forms at will again, Jennifer is rediscovering she has sometimes has wildly different views and opinions in each form, where as the She-Hulk she has come out publicly in favor of the recent Superhuman Registration Act, yet as Jennifer Walters she understands the views of those against the Act.
In the World War Hulk series, she is told by Amadeus Cho about what happened to the Hulk and defeats Doc Samson in battle. She is later seen helping evacuate New York City. In World War Hulk 2, she tries to convince the Hulk to stop, but when he refuses, she punches him straight in the face. Before she could land another punch on him, the Hulk grabbed her and slammed her into the street.

Brief Sample Roleplay
The woman known as Jen Walters walked down the street in a whit blouse and a mini skirt and heels. It was a nice warm sunny day in the city of New York. SHe had just gotten off from the law firm to eat lunch. As she closed in on the corner of one block, she felt a chilly breeze. With each step she took, it got colder.
"Huh? whats going on with this weather?"
She then heard a scream. SHe took off down the street to turn the corner where a massive attack was going down. The Blizzard was freezing the entire street. Damn it!! just when she was planning to go to Ronnie's rooftop for pizza, now she has to deal with this ass clown. SHe stepped back around the corner and tensed up, pulling out the SHE-HULK!!! Her eyes pierced into a green glow and her skin began to mold and change. Her mass began to grow in size, stretching her clothes to the max until they ripped and tore. Her heels crumbled under her mighty weight and lush green hair dripped from the emerald woman. Now the image of a once scrawny woman, now a muscled bound warrior. Good thing she had her costume under her clothes. She then stepped out to face the villain.
"Well, I had a pretty funny pun about the cold and shrinkage, but I'll just go ahead and kicking your frosted butt."
She slammed her fist in her hand as she slowly stepped onto the frozen street. The wind howled as it pour hail from the sky. He turned to face her. She couldn't see his expression from the mask.
"If it ain't the 'ol SHeMAle herself. When did you get the 'transformation'?"
He began to shoot a dozen ice shards at her. SHe lifted her forarms, blocking the shard as they cracked to pieces. He paused for a moment.
"You won't stop me, nobody will this time!! I have powers of a god and I will bring this city to it's knees. A new ice age is upon you. I will be it's maker--"
"Uh-huh...........umm, do you wanna finish your usless little speech or can I go ahead and beat your ass now?"
Angered byher words, he brought his arms up, aiming an ice beam at her torso. SHe leaped up, flipping over his head to his back. With a mighty back hand, she sent him sailing into a frozen car where he fell to his stomach. She-Hulk then stepped in front of him.
So...have you always been this pathetic or is it a recent occurance?
There was a pause between the two.
He then bowed his head in shame.
"Always been this way."
With a raised eye brow and a pierce of her lips, she shook her head.
"Yeah, though so."
She dilivered one final fist to his head to finish him off.
