[color=#90adb1][b]Physical Appearance:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Marcus looks tired. Bags beneath his eyes could display the contents of a hardworking life-- lower-middle class and full of farming and fieldwork. A crown of kinky brown hair rests atop his head gloriously untamed, flowing down to his shoulder-blades, and usually held back only by sheer luck or the occasional hairband. Marcus has a lithe figure, unimpressive in height, that possess the work muscle for plowing. All of his facial features could be described as weak, rounded, a little feminine, and almost handsome. He walks about with his hands in his pockets and abysmal posture-- actually having developed a permeate curvature of the spine from constant slouching. His skin is the dark brown of freshly turned soil and bears scars around the elbows and knees from plenty of childhood roughhousing. 

That's Marcus in the flesh.

While in his current condition, Marcus resembles himself but as if he has been carved and cut from pure marble, clothing not included. Large wings, similar to those of angels, have sprouted from his back and have full range of motion-- too bad they're seemingly useless.[/INDENT] 
[color=#90adb1][b]Attire:[/b] [/color] 
[INDENT]Clothing for labor and working are all that Marcus wears or buys. Work boots, well worn denim pants, thick coats, and a stereotypical amount of flannel reside in his wardrobe. Marcus used to be seen with his hair in a ponytail in order to wear warm "bomber" hats and skullcaps but, now he can't exactly do that. A pair of work gloves were always on his person, be it in his back pocket or worn, because work could come up at anytime, right?

Nowadays he goes shirtless, barefoot, with a simple pair of cargo shorts to cover his [i]marbles[/i], sometimes swapped out for a kilt, as pants tend to tear when his legs move too much.[/INDENT]
[color=#90adb1][h3][b][u]Personality[/u][/b][/h3][/color] 

[color=#90adb1][b]Innate & Outward Personality:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Get right to the point.
Marcus doesn't like beating around the bush or exaggeration. When business is on there'd better be clear and concise instruction, otherwise he feels his time is wasted. Unfortunately this is how he handles everything in life, making his demeanor very serious. He's a humorless young man with a deep well of patience by contrast. Marcus doesn't like to rush but he does want his time to be well spent. He laughs rarely and smiles only out of politeness. He keeps quiet around others unless there is need for his opinion, perspective, or he feels there is an idea he can contribute for better success-- Marcus hates failure. His hatred of failure is only matched by his hatred of losing, as he is fiercely competitive.[/INDENT] 
[color=#90adb1][b]Hobbies/Interests:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Baseball, Football, and Farming-- Go, Seahawks![/INDENT]
[color=#90adb1][b]Skills/Talents:[/b][/color]  
[INDENT]From manual labor to selling the crop, Marcus can do both with ease and skill. He drives a hard bargain, knows how to pinch every nickel and penny out of a customer, and backs off just in time to seal the deal. Marcus also has the strength to plow, toss hay, and lift a lot of heavy things around for hours on end, no breaks, in whatever terrible weather happens to be out that day. He does this all without complaint and the grim silence of a farmer well past his years of giving a lick.

He can also hit a baseball like nobody's business and throw a football about eighty yards, on a good day.[/INDENT]
[color=#90adb1][b]Goals/Motivation[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Marcus wants to see his family-- mother and brothers-- safe and out of harm. He now knows he has the power to do so and will stop at nothing to ensure this goal is met. He will go to [u]any lengths[/u], doing whatever he deems necessary, to accomplish this goal.[/INDENT]
[color=#90adb1][b]History/Bio:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Marcus was born and raised out here in Roseview, oldest of four children. All his life, he has worked the fields at his mother's side, focused on learning everything he possibly could from her. Marcus took it to heart when, one day, a farm down the road burned down, killing the one person responsible for maintaining the field, and leaving the family without any way to recover income. Marcus has sought to learn the trade and to educate his siblings in that regard as well.

He's lived an uneventful life-- home schooled with early starts to his days and late nights. His mothers raised him as well as they could, though they often struggled to make ends meet. As soon as he was able, Marcus took a job at a local grocery store, on top of his duties of selling produce at the Havenfield Market, and did as much as he could to bring in funds to the household.

Unfortunately, said grocery store caught on fire one day, burned to the ground, and activated Marcus' powers. Since that incident, Marcus has had a body of stone, unable to shift back into a human form. This has done very little from stopping his goal however, and he regularly makes appearances at the market. People's acceptance of his condition seem to vary by the moment though, some of the people that have known him for lengths of time rarely stray from accepting him as is. [/INDENT]

[color=#90adb1][b]Family:[/b][/color]  
Blanca Cardenas-Bradley - Mother - Alive - Called "Mom"
[INDENT]An ordinary woman who moved to America from Mexico. Only three years into her stay did she meet her future wife, Tina. She gave birth to all four of her children only after being married and used the same sperm donor for all four, one that specifically looked as similar to Tina as possible. Blanca has been called the negotiator by frequenters of the Havenfield Markets, because of her smooth talking and ability to conduct business in a way that leaves all parties satisfied. She taught Marcus everything he knows about economics, mathematics, and handled the majority of his home schooling. Skillfully, Blanca balances her family and the checkbook with exacting and sometimes unrealistic standards.[/INDENT]
Tina Bradley - Mother - Alive - Called "Mama"
[INDENT]The daughter of farmers from Texas, Tina didn't feel like taking over her parent's lands and instead moved to the north west. This was a move wholly out of spite. She's easygoing enough up until she finds reason to hold a grudge, apparently. Tina taught Marcus everything there was to know about farming-- including what little knowledge she had of animal healthcare and husbandry. Tina works hard-- too hard-- and often gets tunnel vision when it comes to interacting with others. If it's not about work, she sometimes doesn't hear it. [/INDENT]
Clayton 17, Wayne 15, and Shane 15 - Brothers - All Alive [sub]thankfully.[/sub]
[INDENT]Marcus' brothers help out around the farm and at the market. Wayne and Shane are identical twins that regularly "switch places" in order to confuse people-- they're both pranksters and extremely outgoing, opting for sports and rough housing rather than anything else, usually. Clayton is a soft-spoken dreamer that paints watercolor landscapes when he's not busy.[/INDENT]
The Countless Many - Various!
[indent]Marcus' extended family consists of numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents on Bianca's side. Tina's side seems to be somewhat-nuclear and rarely spoken of. To this day, Marcus has still never met Tina's parents or her siblings.[/indent]

[color=#90adb1][h3][b][u]Abilities[/u][/b][/h3][/color] 

[color=#90adb1][b]Power Class:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Elemental - Mimicry[/INDENT] 
[color=#90adb1][b]Power:[/b][/color] 
Stone Body 
[INDENT]Since the activation of Marcus' powers, he has taken a form consisting of a thick layer of white marble with large "angel wings" protruding from his back. This, as far as he knows, is the only thing his powers can do. 
[/INDENT]
Strong Enough
[INDENT]Marcus gained increased strength in order to compensate for his sudden shift in weight. He's strong enough to move freely, run, and leap just a bit-- but not nearly high enough to slam dunk a basketball.[/INDENT]
[color=#90adb1][b]Limits:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]This is all he's capable of and cannot transform back into a person made of flesh, at the moment.[/INDENT]
[color=#90adb1][b]Weaknesses/Drawbacks:[/b][/color]  
[INDENT]While it has not happened yet and he is very unaware of the possibility, the state he is in can be cracked and broken, resulting in an un-healable amputation, depending on what is broken off, as well as heavy bleeding. He cannot regenerate and the bleeding takes a very long time to slow and stop, before a layer of marble moves in to cover the wound.

Marcus' body weight is massive compared to his regular self, coming in at 580lbs while he is in this marble state. He cannot run very fast without effort and, once he gets going, it can be difficult to stop. He can't swim at all. The wings on his back are hilariously useless and seem only decorative. If anything can break marble, melt, or even control marble, he's going to have major issues.

He has lost his sense of smell and touch, so he can't feel heat or cold, and Marcus does not breathe or eat anymore. He sometimes breaks things, due to his weight and inability to properly feel just how tight of a grip he has on something. Sleep is a necessity due to his state being a constant but slow energy drain. As the days roll by, Marcus finds himself slowly growing more lethargic and needing longer periods of rest. This power is putting a constant leak on his energy stores and he is at risk for Ashing in the future, if his powers do not deactivate.

Marcus' strength is enough to move freely without being slow but, that's not enough to say, lift a car. He could punch a hole in a wall but, it would take some effort and tire him, making Marcus need a cat-nap to recover, at the least. His stamina is a decent drawback on his skills and strengths-- it only marginally increased to compensate for the added weight. 

Marcus needs plenty of naps, lots of sleep, and should not participate in large amounts of intense activity for too long. He could do so but, then he begins to dig into reserves of energy that cause him to enter a state of increasing altered mental status-- like a person who has lost too much blood or is about to faint. That being said, such a state of increased activity can eventually lead to fainting after an extended amount of tine.[/INDENT]

[color=#90adb1][b][u]Other:[/u][/b][/color]  
[INDENT][list][*]Marcus has a very strong fear of the dark and doesn't like going out without a flashlight.[/list][/INDENT]

[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Physical Appearance:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Courtney puts a lot of effort into her makeup. Never is she seen without perfectly applied foundation, eyeshadow, and lipstick to match her outfit. Her pierced ears are host to silver or gold hoops and studs, among the three holes pierced into each ear. Deadlocked hair hangs down to the middle of her back with bleached tips, bright blue dyed centers, and the remaining hair being dyed pitch black. Her face is average looking but her steel colored sharp eyes stand out. Her build is flat, square, and broad shouldered.[/INDENT] 
[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Attire:[/b][/color]  
[INDENT]The color black dominates her wardrobe, followed closely by blue and purple. Jeans, fashionable skirts, and leather coats often accompany her graphic t-shirts. Accessories made of leather with studs, spikes, or chains are always on her person. Her footwear consists largely of over the ankle boots or leather lace up shoes. For the most part, she dresses in layers and likes to keep herself covered up.[/INDENT]

[COLOR=#676EC1][h3][b][u]Personality[/u][/b][/h3][/color] 

[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Innate & Outward Personality:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Bubbly, outgoing, and overwhelmingly cheerful describe Courtney in simple terms. She's extroverted with an empathetic need to make others feel welcome, cheer them up, or otherwise ensure that they aren't feeling too "down." This is due to the fact that Courtney feels horribly dissatisfied and unhappy with her current circumstances. She doesn't wish to let others know how depressed she feels inside. Still, she has hope that things will get better and optimism that seems endless.

All this being said, Courtney is not very book smart or logical. She often misses details others would pick up easily and makes major miscalculations when it comes to information interpretation. She hates school and only remembers all the naps she took in class before dropping out of high school, refusing to pursue any further education. Her intelligence is artistic, rather than book smart or street smart.[/INDENT] 
[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Hobbies/Interests:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Makeup, costume design, and music.[/INDENT]
[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Skills/Talents:[/b][/color]  
[INDENT]Courtney was classical piano trained at a very young age and is quite gifted at playing the piano. Her abilities with makeup artistry came a little later in life. From Halloween costumes to cosplay, Courtney has been requested numerous times to assist with makeup artistry from a few notable persons-- all thanks to her channel on YouTube.[/INDENT]
[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Goals/Motivation[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Courtney seeks recognition of her talents in the costume design industry as well as her talent in music composition. If the world continues getting weird however, she thinks these two goals would be very difficult to accomplish.[/INDENT]
[COLOR=#676EC1][b]History/Bio:[/b][/color] 

[hider=A Story of Hot-dogs and Gods]
[INDENT]As an only child, Courtney was privileged to have the full extent if her parents attention. She was born and raised in Colorado and spent the majority of her life there, rarely taking trips out of state. A lot of effort was made by her parents to support her artistic endeavors, even after she dropped out of high school. Things were quiet, normal, and very boring for Courtney but, as with most rebellious youth, she joined a gang after dropping out, dabbled in drug dealing, got a really bad tattoo, then called it all quits years later.

During her time spent with the gang, which was truly more of a small group of knuckleheads that called themselves the "Coin Tossers", Courtney was the go-to for tagging things with spray paint. Though she wasn't very good at it, she was solely responsible for holding the can and spraying, while the others either assisted with her getting into seemingly unreachable positions or pulling guard. The most notable place she was tasked to tag was a blank billboard at the top of an abandoned and derelict hot-dog factory.

She and two members of the Coin Tossers, on a hot summer night, scaled the outside of the building via fire escape. They scaled a rusted and creaky ladder, attached to the billboard, until they reached their destination. All was well until it came time to descend the billboard. While one of the gang members descended, the rusted bolts and screws, holding the ladder to the support pole of the billboard, broke free and sent the teenager hurtling to the ground below. This resulted in that gang member breaking both their legs and being knocked briefly unconscious by the rusted metal falling onto their head. Courtney and the third Coin Tosser were trapped at the top with no way of getting down and the person laying at the bottom was in no condition to call for help-- they all left their cellphones behind to charge in the Coin Tosser leader's car.

Seeing as they were silly teenagers that didn't think ahead, neither Courtney nor her companion brought any food or water to keep them nourished through the coming forty two hours they would be trapped at the top of the billboard. It was during this incident, when the summer sun began to fill the sky at noon, burning Courtney and her companion in a Colorado triple-digit heatwave, that her powers manifested. 

It was a simple wishing, praying, hoping hard that something would come and block out the sun, that caused her first Mirror to assemble itself. Courtney immediately broke it, reassembled it, figured out it was her creation, then she proceeded to shelter herself, her companion, and the Coin Tosser laying miserably on the ground below, from the summer sun with sporadic results. Due to the fact she was dehydrated and hungry, the mirrors would regularly dissolve, causing her to expend more energy to create them again. Thankfully this was enough to keep the three cooled and protected from the heat wave until the rescue crews figured out how to get them down from there. The Coin Tossers soon disbanded afterward leaving Courtney, sixteen at the time, with a lot of time on her hands and nothing to do.

Michelle, Courtney's mother, purchased a large collection of makeup and brushes one day in an attempt to cheer Courtney up-- the days on end of depressing piano melodies filling the house were starting to make Michelle cringe. Thus began Courtney's obsession with YouTube make-up tutorials. Eric, Courtney's father, one day suggested that she make a YouTube channel like "All the other cool kids," dedicated to doing make-up tutorials as well-- he also suggested she throw in her piano music too, because that would make her stand out a little. Courtney began her channel with the screen name [COLOR=#676EC1]BlacK4tBlu[/COLOR]. She began with a few tutorial videos but, she was somewhat hindered by her lack of equipment-- having to film herself via camera phone for the most part.

Months later on her seventeenth birthday, Courtney received a HD camera, some editing software, and a very expensive microphone from her parents. The increase in quality brought more attention to Courtney's YouTube channel but, what really earned her recognition, was a video by the name of "Universe Embodiment Make-Up Tutorial."

In this video, Courtney performed a time lapse of herself playing an original piano composition, applying makeup one brush at a time, to slowly give her entire face, neck, and upper body, the appearance of a galaxy and nebula, complete with a few planets. Courtney's video became viral within the week, giving her over thirteen million views, and bringing in a spike of three-hundred thousand followers-- she was only eighteen at the time.

Courtney created a second viral video less than a year after. She used her mirror powers to create kaleidoscope effects and reflection-play in order to make a "trippy" video of her "transforming" her parents into the "God of Mars and Goddess of Venus." The video featured more special effects makeup, a full body transformation, filmed as time-lapse, and another original piano composition. The views on this video broke the two-million mark within twelve hours, then sky rocketed to over twenty-million views, granting her a few interviews and articles on popular internet news sites, and two-hundred thousand more followers. 

With her YouTube channel earning her a name, some income, and plenty of popularity, Courtney has since participated in numerous conventions, contests, and other events in order to increase her following and make her skills more known. Around her twentieth birthday however, her father was diagnosed with cancer, which lead to a decline in activity on her channel and thus, a decline in viewership. A few months following his diagnosis, Courtney began making videos again but, this time they were simple make-up tutorials, an attempt to begin creating again despite her depression. When it was determined that her father needed more intensive care that the local hospital could not provide, Courtney went on a year long hiatus while her family figured out their next move.

It was determined that a hospital, up north in Washington, may have the specialized doctors and nurses that could help Eric's rapidly declining condition. Michelle was quick to secure a house, transportation, and a job, within a matter of weeks, leading to a sudden and rapid relocation. Courtney's family settled in Baybridge around four months ago and she's still getting used to everything. There is a lot she doesn't know about the town or it's people. She's yet to make any friends, despite her attempts, and is starting to give up on the prospect to instead focus on her art and music. Still, she does feel very lonely.

Courtney only recently recorded her first video since hiatus. It featured a brief walk and look around Baybridge, which served as a treat to her diehard fans-- ones that continued their subscription to her even through the hiatus. In the video she told them her reasons for being absent and promised that new content would soon be underway.[/INDENT]

[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Family:[/b][/color]  
Eric Peterson - Father - Hospitalized
[INDENT]Eric is the half Korean half African American son of a carpenter and a jeweler. He has lung cancer and is currently hospitalized. He's a kind and caring man who was once an architect. Eric raised Courtney with patience and calmness, rarely ever disciplining his child, simply because he is a wimp. Now that he's in Baybridge, he's mostly in and out of the hospital as he receives treatments.[/INDENT]

Michelle Peterson - Mother - Alive
[INDENT]Michelle is an African American woman from Louisiana. She is fiery compared to Eric's easygoing nature. She's a passionate woman who loves to argue and debate, feeling it's the best way to solve problems. During Courtney's childhood, she was the main disciplinarian of the household and often had a tense relationship with her daughter. She currently works as a full time tax auditor for the IRS.[/INDENT]

[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Power Class:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]Elemental[/INDENT] 
[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Power:[/b][/color]  
[i]Reflective Surface Creation[/i]
[INDENT]Courtney has the ability to create mirror-like panels with a wave of her hand. They can vary in size and shape but, all have a distinctly "gooey" texture to them and are able to be passed through with slight effort. They reflect light, heat, infrared, X-ray, and ultra-violet waves. These shields are created from metallic particles in the air, dust, or dirt, microscopic to the eye but agitated and aggressively assembled at her call.[/INDENT]
[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Limits:[/b][/color] 
[INDENT]The limits are plenty. Courtney expends energy with the creation and maintaining of the mirrors. The energy expended increases with the dimensions of the mirror, making it more difficult to maintain for long lengths of time, or outright impossible to assemble in the first place. 

Her ideal mirror is no larger than 10ft x 10ft in the shape of a square, with a 0.3in thickness-- this one can be maintained for hours at a time without bringing her close to exhaustion.

She also cannot be a great length away from whatever mirror she creates. Courtney must be able to see the mirror in order to maintain it and cannot create a mirror in a location she cannot see. The further away from the mirror she is, the more energy is expended to maintain it. An ideal distance for her to stand is within six feet.
[/INDENT]
[COLOR=#676EC1][b]Weaknesses/Drawbacks:[/b][/color]  
[INDENT]The Mirror can also be easily penetrated by physical objects and doing so puts a strain on Courtney's energy reserves-- often manifesting as physical pain. Any sort of magnetism will destroy the barrier with little effort, cause her a great deal of physical pain, and sap a large amount of her energy.

Electricity can be conducted by the Mirror for a short period of time before it breaks apart entirely-- this can be a drawback or an advantage, depending on circumstance. 

Multiple mirrors are possible but the energy expended increases with the amount that are produced, no matter their size-- i.e. two mirrors takes double the energy, three takes triple, etc..[/INDENT]
