[b]Name:[/b] Andrew Macdonald [b]Age:[/b] 23 [b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Ethnicity:[/b] Caucasian [b]Appearance[/b] [img]http://cdn.marxist.com/images/stories/austria/Likas-Riepler.jpg[/img] [hider=Confidential] [b]Alias:[/b] Farseer [b]Costume:[/b] [img]http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110925210134/ninjagaiden/images/f/f0/NINJA_GAIDEN_3_avi.jpg[/img] [b]Meta-Human Power:[/b] Those who go up against the Farseer will quickly discover and spread word of his claim that he can see the future and thus everything that they are about to do, often telling them in great detail about what is about to happen; Shortly after which he will prove himself right. In truth however, this is a facade. The Farseer's true ability is a voice that has a rather hypnotic effect on people; While he cannot outright control someone, the Farseer can influence them to various degrees from invoking an emotional response to outright implanting suggestions, impulses and ideas into their minds, often without them knowing. The whole 'I can see the future' act is merely a way for him to influence those he goes up against so that events will play out as he 'predicts' without them guessing what his true powers are. [b]Weaknesses or Side-Effects:[/b] Farseer must be able to speak freely for his powers to have any effect at all. The target of his powers must also be able to hear/understand what he is saying in order to be influenced by it; Someone who can't understand english or doesn't understand what the words Farseer is using actually mean are just likely to get confused rather then actually influenced in any way shape or form. [/hider] [b]Personality:[/b] For the most part Andrew is a quiet, socially awkward man that normally stays at home on his computer unless work or shopping finally drags him outside. Legally diagnosed with high functioning aspergers and working a low skilled job because he hates the education system with a passion, Andrew tries to be as polite as good as he can despite his difficultly with most social situations. He has a few close friends from his school days that he talks to occasionally online but otherwise it is rare for him to actively seek social company. As Farseer, Andrew is almost a completely different person. Confident, cool headed and (At least seemingly) always in control of the situation, Farseer is largely the kind of person Andrew wishes he could be but isn't. It's amazing the difference a mask can make. Since getting the ability to influence others with his voice, Andrew has started to grow much more confident in himself. [b]Background:[/b] Andrew was born and raised in Modern City, the youngest (And only male) child of the Macdonald family. If pressed, he would say that he had a fairly lucky upbringing; He grew up with a loving, middle class family. Seemingly fewer and fewer people could claim such a thing. If there was one thing that Andrew hated, it was school. He was surrounded by people he hated, learning things from teachers that had stopped caring a long time ago in a system that had been screwing them all from the start. Still, he managed to finish high school even if he never properly sort out higher education. Andrew's 'career' if it can be called that was being limited to 12 hours a week working at a supermarket, a job he got largely due to the connections of his older sisters. Still living at home with his parents when the bay accident happened, Andrew didn't notice his new found 'gift' for a while due to his somewhat anti social behavior. However, as he noticed that more and more things were going his way and the appearance of 'Supers', Andrew started to test some theories and was pleasantly surprised to learn that he was effectively a mutant. With the money he had saved up combined with some cash his parents had put aside for him, Andrew moved out after securing a surprisingly good deal with a friendly landlord (*Wink Wink*) and joined up with the local Socialist political party. Andrew created the 'Farseer' out of a desire to do good and help his home city while also giving himself ample chance to practice and possibly strength his new found gifts. [b]Other:[/b] Andrew is a member of Modern City's Socialist Party. While currently he is one of the party people that works behind the scenes to make sure things happen, he seems to have caught the notice of the current local candidate as someone to keep close.
