Conduit does not truly care about public opinion, always willing to put the mission at risk in order to save lives but never caring about collateral damage. He doesn't care about political opinion, willing to offend anyone or willing to say whatever he needed to say to get people moving to save their lives. But through all of that Conduit truly does care about keeping the people in his city safe, deep down. Conduit first made his debut when he stopped a bank robbery in progress, severely injuring all criminals involved but leaving not a single fatality. He was put in the spotlight more often after that, most of the time being called an "unwanted vigilante" from his rather extreme methods. Whenever anyone wanted to criticize the heroes of today about using extreme force on criminals, all they had to do was was bring up Conduit. But no one could ever call him a murderer, that was a line he never crossed. Not much is known about Conduit's past, people know his name but his last name was something he made up. He preferred to be called Conduit, that being his identity now. He no longer wished to go be his civilian name, believing that trying to have two identities was a weakness. Besides he had no true family left, and the only one he could say Kyle Hishamie shared blood with was someone he no longer wished to associate with. What is know about Conduit is that he has had his powers for a long time, since he was fourteen. His powers manifested when on his schools band competition, where he played in the drumline, his powers first appeared by causing an EMP like effect that originated from his body. The sudden surge of energy started off as a small headache, then elevated to increased body temp, then basically exploded in an orb like fashion and spread all across the field he was playing on. All electronics surged and exploded, and all lights and other devices that used electricity. Kyle was able to live a mostly normal life after that, he tried to hide his powers from the public for the longest time and was able to since most people did not realize that day it was him that caused the blackout. He put in the least amount of effort that he could in to most things in school, but still graduated. He managed to keep his powers in check until after graduating, until he first made his initial debut as Conduit by saving people inside a bank from robbers. He used his powers, but not as much as he used his knowledge of hand to hand combat. Growing up Kyle was able to stay in the city but he was in foster care, and was moved from family to family for years ever since he was born. His parents gave him up after being born. At age ten he moved into the home of a dojo owner of mixed martial arts, and found a sort of peace there he never knew. Even after being moved to a different family he always ended up running away and returning to the dojo, for however long before he was forced to go live with another family. After saving the people in the bank, Conduit was Kyle's given nickname by the public. Being given a nickname and seeing the buzz he was receiving Kyle decided he wanted to do more things like this. It gave him a purpose and a sense of accomplishment he had never known before. So in the following week he picked out his uniform and began doing more heroics. His harsh use of mixed martial arts and super powers have given him a sort of "Give no fucks" rep, but people know that no matter what at the end of the day he is a hero. [sub][h3][b]⋙: Ｐ Ｏ Ｗ Ｅ Ｒ Ｓ[/b] [sup][b]＆ Ｆ Ｉ Ｇ Ｈ Ｔ Ｉ Ｎ Ｇ Ｓ Ｔ Ｙ Ｌ Ｅ[/b][/sup][/h3][/sub][hr] [u]A B I L I T I E S[/u] Conduit has the super power of Kinetic energy. Conduit himself is basically a human battery of potential energy, which he can distribute to any object he comes into skin to skin contact with. The energy he distributes is technically harmless, he could recharge batteries with his powers or restart a generator, but he can also make it deadly. He can turn every day objects like pencils or playing playing cards or even books in bombs from the energy he can transfer, but usually this only works with objects that is not suppose to store a large amount of energy like previously stated objects. In order to make something like a generator into a deadly bomb he would have to over load the generator with energy, so it is not like the energy Conduit has is poisonous or deadly starting off. - Energy Shielding = Conduit can deploy his inner potential energy as a shield against such things as sharp objects or even bullets. By touching another he could shield them as well, and if the person he was touching was touching someone else he could shield them as well. - Kinetic Bomb = Conduit, through skin contact, can send his stored energy into the object he is touching. If the object he is touching was not meant to store energy, or if it was and he sent too much energy, the object in question can be turned into a bomb. the degree of bomb depends on how much energy Conduit uses and how much said object can actually store. Which means that a pencil could not become an atomic bomb, but chair could be used as a stronger bomb than an apple. - Energy Drain = Conduit can steal energy from other things, be it people or inanimated objects. From people, scientifically speaking, he would drain the electricity flowing from the human body. Humans generate their own source of heat, and have electricity running throughout their entire body, and Conduit can siphon off that. Given enough time he could even theoretically kill someone doing this. From inanimated objects, such as generators or batteries he could do the same, obviously not being able to steal "energy" from a toothbrush or orange or pencil. - Electrostatic Discharge = When at full storage this power is much much stronger, but at will (and sometimes involuntarily) Conduit can spend all stored potential energy into one attack. This is a single attack, but it can used in any way Conduit wishes. He could discharge his energy through an EMP like explosion the same way that he accidently did when his powers, he could aim his energy and discharge it through an electrostatic beam, or he could discharge it through a single bomb, or he cold discharge it through a suicidal discharge by touching something and holding on. [u]C O M B A T[/u] Conduit uses a sort of common but uncommon type of mixed martial art. It does not have a name, but it does uses a combination of several mixed martial arts styles. Conduit mainly focuses on disabling quickly, starting with quick jabs to the face and chest, disabling movement in the legs, or straight up knocking out his opponent. His techniques mainly use his hands, and while he does use kicks they are his least favorite moves to use so he rarely uses kicks. But he will break bones, in fact if he feels like a broken hand or arm or leg will stop a situation and he is a hurry will do what he feels he needs to do.

In civilian clothes he wears his black leather jacket with the very small collar propped up with a V neck long sleeve black shirt underneath. He wears Black jeans with Black memory foam slip on shoes. He would never admit it but he loves the way they feel, and he hates tying shoes. [hider=Costume worn, but with no gloves, The Coalition C on the Right and Left shoulder, and a black mask that covers the mouth and nose] [url]http://www.aoisos.com/v/vspfiles/assets/images/33.jpg[/url] [/hider] [u]P E R S O N A L I T Y T R A I T S [/u] [indent][list][*] Conduit is no sullen, goth, emo, weirdo despite the fact that his wardrobe is mainly black and he tends to dislike crowds. Conduit may not like to smile for the press, but he does enjoy a snappy comeback, a funny one liner, verbal banter in a fight. He likes to think of himself as a sass god, able to piss off his opponent in battle and out of battle. He does care, deep on the inside, but he hates chick flick moments and refuses to show weakness like that in public. Even in private he would rather punch a wall than to admit he feels hurt or betrayed. He does have a few friends and when he works with a team, he does make friends he just is not obvious when it comes to showing he cares. He would rather have everyone hate him and be safe than to endanger people and be on their good side. Conduit does have a habit of getting cocky when he believes the fight is over and will let down his guard most of the time, save against super strong opponents. He has a bad habit of stress eating, and while his metabolism superb, he does not know quite when to stop. When he cannot eat when stressed he gets quite easily annoyed, even more than usual. He speaks his mind, and does not usually lie albeit when he simply avoids certain truth to manipulate someone.

Her name was Sally Kugara. Kyle had a father, mother, and an older brother for all of five minutes before being put up for adoption. Kyle has lived with twelve different families, none of them he would actually call family. His brother he did meet years later, but as it turns out Conrad Hishamie (who ended up adopting the same last name Kyle did simply to piss off his little brother) was quite the criminal, a criminal mastermind at that. * Verdock Stratton - Father - Alive - 49 - * Mary Stratton - Mother - Deceased at 27 - * Conrad Hishamie (Stratton) - Older brother - Alive - 29 - * Sally Kugara - Ex Lover - Alive - 22 - [u]Y O U R L I F E S O F A R[/u] [indent][list][*] * Born to a loving family, mother dies from complications of giving birth, given into foster care * Childhood was difficult, mainly because Kyle felt like he never fitted it and he could never live up to anyone's unrealistic high expectations * Sent to live with a rather grouchy middle age man who began his training in Mixed Martial Arts * Met Sally in middle school, became best friends, and eventually at age fourteen they became lovers * Powers formed, popularity increased, bad habits started to form * Senior year Kyle and Sally left on bad terms, feelings for each other still obvious * Kyle stops bank robbery, gains fame and infamy, becomes conduit * Graduates high school and moves into his own place * Joins the Coalition [/list] [/indent] [/hider] [@Universorum][@lovely complex][@silent observer]
