Description An idea I've had kicking around in my head for about 30 years, a pair of conjoined twins who work as a superhero.

Here's some information on them.

REAL NAMES: Keiko and Ikuko Tanaka
CITY OF BIRTH: Little Tokyo, Los Angeles, California
AGE: 25
HEIGHT: 5'4"
WEIGHT: (REFUSE TO DISCLOSE)
HAIR: Black
EYES: Blue
KNOWN SUPERPOWERS: Enhanced strength, enhanced speed, enhanced agility, Olympic level proficiency with projectile weapons, master level proficiency in martial arts, telepathic link between each other. The twins also have the ability to surround themselves with an aura that hides their identity, negating the need for masks.
ORIGIN OF POWERS: Genetic mutation
DISTINGUISHING PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Keiko and Ikuko are pygopagus conjoined twins, born joined at the hip and upper thigh. 
DUAL IDENTITY: Secret, although known to their brother
BASE OF OPERATIONS: Los Angeles, California
MOTIVATION: To make a difference

When people say twin sisters Keiko and Ikuko Tanaka are joined at the hip, they mean it literally, as the twins were born conjoined at the hip and upper thigh. Although separation would be a relatively simple procedure, their parents decided against it, as their mother puts it, "If the Good Lord had wanted them to be separate, he wouldn't have made them Siamese twins." However, they were taught from an early age not to look at their physical bond as a handicap. From the time they could walk, their grandfather, who had trained with several masters including Bruce Lee, had trained the twins, along with their fraternal triplet brother Seiji, in martial arts. About the time they began puberty, their powers manifested themselves. They confided in their brother, to whom the twins have always been extremely close(they refer to him as their "honorary Siamese triplet"). One day, when the twins are 19, they hear about a crime wave in Los Angeles, and are talking about it. Seiji challenges them to do something about it, telling them they have the power to make a difference. He helps them design costumes, and the twins embark on a career as superheroes.
