The Hub City Speedster.[/INDENT] [B]| [I]ABILITIES/SKILLS/EQUIPMENT:[/I] |[/B] [INDENT]Kinetic Manipulation: Unlike the Flash and his fellow speedsters Rufus is not connected to the speed force. His abilities comes from his metegene and he is able to manipulate kinetic energy around and within himself. Using this energy to perform a large amount of superhuman feats. Super Speed: His most notable use for his kinetic manipulation is his speed. He generates and absorbs kinetic energy at all times, using it to increase the vibrations within his cells and greatly increasing the work load his cells can handle allowing him to move at super human speeds. Super Strength: More akin to enhanced strength. Rufus's strength is above that of regular humans as to prevent his body from breaking into small pieces while moving at super speed. It's a biproduct of the massive influx of kinetic energy in his body. Super Reflexes and Dexterity: When the energy hits his brain all of his senses becomes hyper alert, allowing him to follow a speeding bullet with his eyes and catch it with his teeth. His superhuman dexterity is the product of him practicing his agility while moving at super speed. Genius Intellect: Rufus can read at approximately 60 times the speed of the quickest readers of mankind. Allowing him to take in great amounts of information in no time. Thus he's a genius ranking among the smartest young minds in the world. Super durability: Rufus heals no where near as fast as the Flash family, but due to him constantly absorbing and generating kinetic energy he is able to mitigate a lot of physical damage to his body, allowing him to feign super durability. He's been shown to be able to handle getting hit by Superboy in the face without breaking a bone. Energy Management: While it is completely possible for him to use his powers to overcharge objects with kinetic energy to increase their durability or even cause them to become unstable, so unstable they would explode he rarely does that as he thinks it's highly unreliable. It is also possible for him to transfer some of his kinetic energy to another person, giving them a part of his power for a limited time. He does not want to use this as he can not predict the outcome of it. Hero training: Rufus have been trained by the Urban Shaman of Hub City, The Question. Vic Sage taught him basic martial arts but mostly how to make sure to always use his powers to allow himself extra time to scope out a area, to always allow as little margin for error as possible. [/INDENT] [B]| [I]LIMITATIONS AND WEAKNESSES:[/I] |[/B] [INDENT]Rufus's speed requires time to rack up. He can at any moment reach speeds of 300 Kilometers per hour with the kinetic energy stored in his body while it's in 'resting mode'. His usual combat speed is somewhere between Mach 1 and 2, but with enough time and momentum to generate enough energy he could reach Mach 3 or 4. Rufus is unlike the Flahs's not a very chill guy. He takes things seriously at all times and is quick to anger, he refuses to admit that he's wrong and always thinks himself to be the smartest guy in a room. He's a fan of claiming to be 'objectively right'. His most notable weakness is momentum, would Rufus get stopped from moving and thus generating energy his powers would diminish quickly. He is completely without a connection to the speed force, and he can thus not use the many utility aspects of speed like the Flashfamily can. [/INDENT] [b]| [i]SAMPLE POST:[/i] |[/b] [INDENT] The car bumped on the dirt road, a pot hole had been the culprit. The truck kept going without much of a hitch. The driver's head turned behind them as the sirens were heard behind them. A sports car blew past them followed by four police cruises. The driver looked at the passenger and scoffed. "You gonna catch that?" He asked. The man's name was Harvey, and next to him was his son, Rufus. Rufus nodded. "I probably should, shouldn't I?" he looked at his dad whom pulled the car over. "You have a disguise?" And Rufus shook his head. "Neh. I would only need that if they actually could get a look at me." His dad smiled "Take this." He said, handing Rufus the yellow trucker hat and the black shades. Rufus took them and looked back at his dad. "Cheers pops." He said, putting on the hat and the shades, the turned the cap around on his head a bang of his hair poking out of the cap as he took off a cloud of dust being left behind him. "Damn that kid's fast." Harvey said to himself. Following the sound of the sirens Rufus soon caught up to the cops, the three minute run had given him enough juice to easily outrun the sports car. The black and yellow streak his clothes left as he sped by the police cruises letting them know that their job was finished. Speeding up next to the driver's window, Rufus sent his fist through the window, knocking the driver unconscious. He unlocked the door and opened it, getting in he pushed the knocked out driver to the passenger seat and slowed the car down to a skidding halt. As soon as the car had stopped he vanished in a blur again. [/INDENT] [b]| [i]NOTES:[/i] |[/b] [indent] Thinks the Flash Family is idiots for leaving room for error. Is a perfectionist. Sourpuss. Prone to random spats of sarcasm. Polite most of the time unless ticked off. [/indent][/center]
