〈 CHARACTER INFO 〉
CHARACTER NAME: Max Carson
CHARACTER AGE: 18
CANON ORIGIN: Strictly Original
CHRONOLOGY: In his room, after being pulled from school and benched from his team indefinitely for the Pep Rally Incident.
CLASS: Hero
HOUSING: Randomize me!
BACKGROUND:
World Setting Information
Character History Information
PERSONALITY:
Max hates focusing on the negative aspects of events and instead tries to put a positive spin on everything—to an annoying degree when it’s a serious situation. He also enjoys using sarcasm, bad puns, and horrible jokes to try and relieve the tension in stressful situations, such as when he had been shot in the leg while they were facing off against the gun-happy superhuman Merc and made his teammate Victoria cut open his leg to dig the bullet out. He chit-chatted and joked the entire time, no matter how much pain he was in and she punched him in the face (lightly) for joking about it, but in the end it had been just the distraction she had needed to keep her grounded while she did it.
Max is always in a better mood when he's almost "topped up" meaning he has energy in his body to spare. His powers react much like a TV that is plugged in, but turned off. He leaks energy in minute amounts throughout his day and without extra boosting of his energy, he will be sleepy and irritable (and rude, even angry, to the point of putting people off or scaring them) by bedtime--even sooner if he expels more energy throughout the day. He can’t control these mood swings, but recognizes when they are coming along as tries to warn people or get away when he notices he’s getting into a particularly snappy or dark mood.
When his energy is low, he’s cranky, irritable, fatigued, and can be more biting and less caring about what comes out of his mouth. He loses a lot of his normal motivation, too. He knows he’s not a pleasant person to be around when he’s like that so he tries to avoid other people as much as possible. There is a temptation to just take off the wristband and borrow a bit of energy from others to set himself to rights, because he hates how being low makes him feel, but there is also a reflexive revulsion and fear about what could happen if he started down that road. Of course the opposite can also happen in that his body will subconsciously absorb energy from around him in attempts to overcorrect a severe energy depletion, which can lead to him being over-energized somewhat manic in his thoughts and behaviors.
In many ways, his powers enable his natural extrovert-ness. Max loves being around people, talking to them, making friends, cheering up people who seem to be having a bad day, or even giving out less-than-savvy romantic advice. Being around people rejuvenates him in an emotional way even when his powers are blocked from siphoning energy and he has a need for physical affection and contact. If he can choose to shake a person’s hand or give them a hug, he’d rather give them a hug if he can get away with it, but usually keeps himself in check for social conventions. He’s not really a love guru likes he thinks (his last boyfriend was over four years ago when he was thirteen), but he considers his love of movies and television and popular culture to mean he has enough “experience” to help anyone looking for love. It’s just another side of how much he wants to help people with finding their happy ending in life, even though his help can come across as him just being nosy and intrusive. He needs people and happy people are way better to be around than unhappy people, right?
Sometimes Max’s optimism does get in the way of the team’s missions, but not intentionally. Whereas some members of the team believe that some Superhumans do need to be put down because their powers are too dangerous, Max believes that anyone can learn to control their powers—or at least find a way to manage them. If D.E.L.T.A. had not given him that opportunity he could be dead himself already and possibly hundreds or thousands of people with him. His first thought it always to redemption and rehabilitation, believing most people in the world are inherently good or at least could be swayed that way if given the right opportunity. At the same time, if the order is given that the person is too dangerous and has every intention of using their powers to hurt people, Max will be the first one ready to put them down and protect others from them.
POWER:
1. Energy Absorption & Manipulation : Max is capable of absorbing various forms of energy and altering that energy into other forms for him to use or redirect. This can be energy for his body, electricity, energy blasts, heat, shields, etc. He was also studying biology in which to learn how to convert energy into fuel to boost cell reproduction to heal wounds faster in the field, but had not gotten very far in this training. He can do all of this consciously and at will, but his body subconsciously absorbs minute amounts of energy from the world around him at all times if it is not otherwise prevented from doing so. He wears an inhibitor device designed to look like a fancy tech watch to prevent him from absorbing energy from organic matter (humans, animals, plant-life, etc) accidentally.
2. Energy Synchronization : Max is capable of synchronizing and copying the energy signatures of other Supers after repeated exposure to it. This does not mean he is capable of copying their abilities, but he can act like a battery of sorts and help boost their power with his own energy since he can push his energy into their bodies or directly into their attacks. But if the Super is not presently using their abilities, Max is not able to do so on his own.
3. Love Life Soundtrack : Whenever Max initiates mouth-to-mouth contact with someone music starts playing from any nearby sound-amplifier, such as a speaker (car speakers, cellphone speakers, grocery store PA system, etc). Each song is of a romantic nature, but the only songs that can play are songs that Max himself has heard before. This does not occur if someone else initiates the contact or if it is not mouth-to-mouth.
〈 CHARACTER SAMPLES 〉
COMMUNITY POST (VOICE) SAMPLE:
[Max holds up two fingers in a show of peace and greeting.] Hey there, my fellow Unexpected Travelers. How’s life treating y’all? Got any fun stories to share with the class about “What I’ve done on my Alternate Universe vacation?”
Or how about you tell me all of your no doubt very heroic monikers? I need to put names to faces, pictures on the internet don’t do people justice, and as much as I’d like, there’s not enough minutes in the day to be googling everyone. I don’t have time or resources to call each one of you individually so just help a brother out. You don’t have to tell me your super-secret civilian identity, if you’ve got one, or what your powers are, if you don’t want to. I just want to know who’s out there saving the day and what the people know you as. A friendly Superhero roll call.
[Did he finally stop rambling? Why yes he did.]
LOGS POST (PROSE) SAMPLE: Log Sample
FINAL NOTES: Max has an adapted generator in his room back home to help maintain a stabilized energy level, by evening himself out overnight while he’s sleeping. Would this be something he could receive in game from the government, or something he would need to work toward acquiring himself?
