Power/Abiliies:
[list]
[*][b][u]Superhuman Speed:[/u][/b] As it says, he can go faster than an average human. He has discovered that he had already broken the speed barrier and has reached Mach 3 speed, impressive speed though he feels like he could still go faster.
[*][b][u]Superhuman Reflexes and Awareness:[/u][/b] Because of his power over speed, his brain is rewired to think faster and thus act faster. He is able to react faster than any other human being. His brain also processes things much faster than a normal human can so he is able to process everything that is going on around him even if he is speeding through them at inhumane speeds.
[*][b][u]Superhuman Stamina:[/u][/b] He can handle great stresses on his body without much trouble thanks to being conditioned with all the running and faster reflexes that he does and has.
[*][b][u]Accelerated Regeneration:[/u][/b] Any bullet holes, tears and injuries tend to heal much more faster because of his cells duplicating at an increased pace and thus he can heal faster.
[*][b][u]Enhanced Mental Process:[/u][/b] The main reason why he does so well in school - his power tapped into his brain to process information. He can test theories and run trial and errors and inhumane speeds. What would take a normal person over minutes of trial and error, Michael can process it in a few seconds.
[*][b][u]Numbness:[/u][/b] Pain has long since been taken away from him on the days that he was heavily experimented on. He doesn't remember how it was removed, he just knew that one day, he couldn't feel it anymore. 
[*][u][b]Memory Manipulation:[/b][/u] While he can't really change what people remember, he can see what their memories are through direct contact. Michael knows of this power and would not use it unless needed. It can be countered by resisting him mentally or by throwing useless memories at him until he tires out. This would merely anger him. Unconscious people are easier to see through.
[*][u][b]Enhanced Durability:[/b][/u] He can take a lot more hits. Since he can't feel pain, he doesn't know where his limit is so he doesn't know that it isn't normal.

Bio: Michael was born an orphan. He didn't know of his lineage. There was one thing he did know. Wherever he was, it wasn't exactly the safest place. A young boy placed in an experimental orphanage. Every child would be subjected to experiments that could only be described as torture for them. Some had it even worse. Michael's power emerged from him the same way it did to his grandparents - they were given to him through painful experiments. Apparently, the orphanage was working for the government to create superhuman beings to combat the other superhumans/mutants that goes against the government. 

Michael witnessed his friends' deaths, one by one. Sometimes there were two at the same day, sometimes there were three, sometimes there were none - but they were all subjected to extreme pain. Michael's power soon emerged when he was six years of age, alongside some of the others. The scientists were joyous to see this and began training them to become super soldiers. Not only were they conditioned to have resilient bodies, they were conditioned to know that the government was right. But nothing always goes as planned, everyone knows that. At the age of eight, Michael and some of the others sneaked into the headmaster's quarters and then managed to read the files (one of them had an illusion power). They realized that every single one of them had some blood relation to a hero of the past. They were kidnapped to combat what their ancestors were fighting for.

Angered but knew they could not stand up to their captors in their young age, they continued training. Day by day, they thought about escaping. And everyday, they thought about revenge. One fateful day came when superheroes raided the orphanage, aiming to stop the experimentation on children. Michael was aged 14 at that day and he helped retaliate. He had to fight other trainees, those who had stayed loyal to the government. When it was over, there were only two superheroes left. Michael had went with a man named Gerald Totskey who had the power of foresight with him.

They lived together, gave Michael a new name (Ezra was the name given to him by the scientists) and then slapped on the Maximoff name so that he would remember her lineage. Gerald's training... wasn't exactly what he was expecting. It was way easier and less painful, so Michael created his own training regiment. When he was 16, however, Gerald foresaw that he would have to leave home to find his own greatness. Michael had no choice but to follow his master's instruction and left. He soon found out that Gerald had lied about it and foresaw his own death, and that's why he sent Michael away.

It was then that he heard a particular recruitment order - find James Victor Rogers. They said he will find purpose there. And so Michael sought him out to see what he had in plan. He found the guy and now joins him in his cause.

That was two years ago, from the present.

Family/Relationships: His friends from the orphanage never stayed in touch with him, so he doesn't know how they are. He just wishes for them to be fine.

[hider=Relationship with other PCs]
[u][b]James Victor Rogers[/b][/u] - Michael met the guy because he needed to. But, in the two years that they've known each other, Michael has grown to trust James and treat him as a good friend. He still thinks his failure to see impossibility to help someone would be his downfall - but it hasn't happened yet, and hopefully, it won't happen ever.

[u][b]Kate Thorsdottir[/b][/u] - Michael met Kate a year before he joined up with James. It was because Gerald [Foresight] had given him an order to go to a location where he foresaw a woman wielding a hammer of bright blue. Once there, he fought with the woman - instantly recognizing the hammer as Mjolnir thanks to the lightning (and admit it, there were only few people who used a huge hammer as a weapon). After that, Michael and her exchanged contacts so they could help each other when they needed it. They met a few times more after Michael joined James but never telling the latter who they were working with. He can figure it out.

Weapons:
He has covered his hands, arms and legs with a sort of metallic alloy that allows his attacks to be extra devastating. It doesn't hinder his speed nor is it particularly heavy. Light and durable.

Personality: Michael isn't exactly someone you'd call trustful, or optimistic. You can understand why, given what he's been through. However, he can be quite social. Laughing with people, sharing spooky stories and the likes, but he's always cautious of what other people say and what he says as well. He rarely lets anything slip out unintentionally. Though his paranoia isn't obvious, people who know him well know it is there. Some say it is needless paranoia, but for him, in this world, paranoia is his best friend. He knows his priorities and being a morally neutral character often does him good. If there's little to no chance of saving a person, he isn't going to save them unless convinced otherwise. 

Other: He has a pretty thick Russian accent. He seems to have a habit of calling others by their last names. He can probably improve his power more to the point of how Quicksilver uses his as he is still training. He does't know why Pietro's power surfaced in him rather than Wanda's power of probability. Some say he might get the two powers but he highly doubts that.
