Upon activation Vivians eyes tint a golden hue, as a skin tight invisible barrier forms around her body protecting her from harm.
When one announces her presence and makes herself known to the enemy they naturally become a target even when compared to more dangerous individuals if they are less obvious. As such it is only natural that one who wishes to truly inhabit the role of a Font of Hope must be able to stand tall and be hit. This is the embodiment of the phrase "If you are going to shoot someone, shoot me."
The way Vivian has utilised her powers recently has resulted in harm coming to many. This is not what she wants to do, despite how easy it may seem. No, she must remember why she is here on this earth. So she will stand tall, and shout to the world that "I am here". A second chance to be what she wants to be, a hope for the hopeless.
