[color=7df9ff][b]Real Name:[/b][/color] Cassius “Cash” Munroe.

[color=7df9ff][b]Age:[/b][/color] 20.

[color=7df9ff][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Male

[color=7df9ff][b]Alias/Nicknames:[/b][/color] Galvanize, Cash, 

[color=7df9ff][b]Color Choice:[/b][/color] #7df9ff Color Hex Electric Blue.

[color=7df9ff][b]Appearance:[/b][/color] Cassius is usually seen with very trendy street attire, ranging from air jordans to levi jeans, he takes great pride in what he wears, rocking some popular beats headphones, he tends to be listening to them when alone, finishing off with what appears to be some very stylish lightning burn marks on his jacket, mapping out a proof of the extent of his powers that he wears as a badge of honour hidden in plain sight. Whilst under the name Galvanize, his hair shoots up, instead of his casual spiky loose hair, injecting white streaks of hair into his look, a static energy envelops him with tiny bolts of lightning travelling, scattering randomly around him as his eyes match that electric blue, the calming eyes in the midst of the storm.

[color=7df9ff][b]Personality:[/b][/color] Just like alternating current (AC), his demeanour shifts periodically, as we wields both his calm and relaxed composure, to his outgoing almost over-confident display, most of the time you see him not caring about situations that he thinks can be handled without him, but for the more perspective of the bunch, he always has his eyes sharpened to interject if necessary. Usually seen lost in his own little world taking photos, posting and interacting on his social media, he tends to show a lot of pride when it comes to his following.

[color=7df9ff][b]History:[/b][/color] Being the child of Storm and Nightcrawler, great things have always been expected from Cassius, when his powers came to him at a young age, his parents had very different plans for him, whilst Nightcrawler wanted him to have a very leisure and relaxed life away from being a mutant, Storm wanted to nurture it and have him grow into his coming responsibilities, jumping from training and school life, switching between two worlds Cassius felt as if he didn't feel at home in either one, until he starting taking things into his own hands, as with age we wanted to live his life his own way. His innate charismatic nature grew him a very successful schooling life, whilst also landing him a modeling gig, making a good amount of money and giving birth to his social media footprint, avoiding his calling throughout a long time, but as most know, there are things that are just inevitable.

When Thanos invaded Earth and managed to collect all 6 infinity stones, leading to the infamous snap that eradicated half of life as we know it in the existing universe, and fate would hold no punches back towards Cassius' life, for he did not only lose one parent, but both, reduced to nothing but mere dust, without even a chance to say goodbye, Cassius felt more lost and alone than ever, spiraling into a frenzied rage and depression, drawing all of the lightning into his body, he bolted right through the night sky fleeing New York City to an isolated holiday house they had in the countryside in a neighboring state, to mourn the loss of his parents in segregation.

After a few days of grieving, he returned back to a chaos-ridden city, The once vibrant metropolis had become a playground for criminals both armed with countless lethal weapons, and some with their own superhuman abilities. With every corner hiding a new threat, the city's skyline is a battleground of skyscraper clashes and frenetic energy. The NYPD, overwhelmed and understaffed, waging a relentless battle to maintain order in this bedlam of an urban jungle, being weakened by every wave of superpowered crime that threatens to engulf the city. Amidst the turmoil, a small, dedicated group of heroes fight valiantly to protect the city. Their numbers are few, but their determination is boundless. Yet, it's clear that something more is needed to tip the scales back toward justice, and only a matter of time before they too are overwhelmed and defeated.

For years, Galvanize has lived a quiet life, keeping his extraordinary abilities hidden from the world. But as New York City brims on the edge of destruction, he can no longer stand idly by, as he feels the coursing rush of adrenaline shooting through his veins, the static shock building on the tip of his hair, and the words that he remembers from his mother: "Remember, my child, greatness flows through your veins, do not deny it, embrace the tempest within, my son, for within every storm lies the power to shape worlds. You are not defined by the thunder that echoes through your veins, but by the lightning that sparks in your heart. The world hungers for a hero, and you carry the legacy of storms. Unleash your power, soar through the winds of destiny, The world awaits your thunderous call, my dear, and it's time to let your inner storm rage!".

Galvanize tapped into the tempestuous energies of the sky above. His eyes crackled with lightning as he summoned the fury of a storm that would make his mother proud. Rain poured in torrents, winds howled, and thunder rolled, lightning arcing from his fingertips, he wielded the storm like an extension of himself, using precise strikes to neutralize his superpowered adversaries, sending them flying and crashing into buildings, stunning others and neutralizing the more dangerous of the mass, But it was more than just his mastery of the storm that set Galvanize apart; it was his unwavering determination and belief in the hero within himself. With each flash of lightning, he carried the legacy of his mother's courage and the weight of his city's hopes. In the heart of the chaos, Galvanize emerged victorious, defeating the superpowered criminals and restoring a measure of order to the city. With his powers honed and his resolve unshaken, he had become the hero New York needed, forging a legacy of his own alongside the legendary Storm.

[color=7df9ff][b][b]Powerset:[/b] [/b][/color]
[list]
[*][color=7df9ff]Lightning Creation[/color] - Galvanize can easy produce lightning from his own body, using it both offensively and defensively, shooting out lightning bolts, and other means of attacks.

[*][color=7df9ff]Lightning Reflexes[/color] - Galvanize’s body is energized with his own unique electrons, making the signals that his brain sends to his body near instantaneous, following the motto of one of his most cherished idols: 
<Snipped quote by Muhammad Ali>

[*][color=7df9ff]Lightning/ Electric Manipulation[/color] - Galvanize can utilize the existing electricity that resides in our modern world and weaponize it or even rejuvenate himself, empowering his attacks or altering the electric machine/ equipment to turn on, off, or activate its action properties, and in very rare moments, weaponizing natural lightning itself. 

[*][color=7df9ff]Hyper Bolt [/color]- Concentrating all of his lightning into every cell of his body, Galvanize can dematerialize and shoot himself out into god-like speed, reaching up to Mach 364, in other words, from one point of New York city to the other (35 miles) in half a second, but with so much power, comes equal strain, as as he stands now he can only pull this off for around 5 seconds, risking straining and exhausting his body if pushed beyond his limit.

[color=7df9ff][b]Equipment/Paraphernalia:[/b][/color]

[list]
[*][color=7df9ff]Irritable:[/color] His pride is very important to him, Galvanize’s psyche isnt the sturdiest when it comes to insults or being shamed, lashing out irrationally at times getting him to trouble. 

[*][color=7df9ff]Durability:[/color] Even though landing a blow on Galvanize with his lightning speed, his body is only a little above average in terms of durability when it comes to direct force.

[*][color=7df9ff]Field Experience:[/color] While Galvanize is strong and has practised his moves many times, he has very little experience actually in the fray of real life situations where he has had to think of teammates, civilians, callatatole damage, etc.

[color=7df9ff][b]Issue #0/Testing Post: [/b][/color]
In the heart of the bustling New York City, where skyscrapers reach the heavens and the energy of urban life surges through the streets, a local diner that had become over the years a sanctuary for a young Cassius Munroe. With his charming smile, playful demeanor, and a secret identity known only to the closest friends, Cassius was the epitome of a carefree adolescence. Today was supposed to be just another day of ordinary fun with his college friends.

The diner was bathed in warm, golden light, and the smell of sizzling bacon and brewing coffee filled the air. As they entered Cassius exclaimed: [color=7df9ff][i]“Order up peeps, this one’s on me, not like Barry brought any money with him anyways”[/i][/color] he and his friends occupied their usual booth, laughing uproariously as they indulged in mouthwatering burgers and thick milkshakes. 

His laughter was infectious, and it spread like wildfire through the tight-knit group. They talked about their upcoming exams, weekend plans, and inside jokes only they could understand.

Outside, however, chaos erupted suddenly. A supervillain, known as Typhoid Mary, known for her destructive prowess, had decided to unleash her malevolent tendencies upon the city. The street was a battleground, with Mary wreaking havoc, and as quickly as she came, so did the cavalry, as several seasoned superheroes appeared to thwart her sinister plans.

[i][color=7df9ff]“Well, that’s new york for ya, can’t go 10 minutes without someone who didn’t get enough attention as a kid trying to run amok…”[/color][/i]


As the commotion outside escalated, Cassius's friends couldn't help but stare in awe at the epic confrontation unfolding before them. The blinding flashes of energy, the thunderous crashes, and the distant cries for help painted a vivid picture of the superhero world's constant turmoil.

But Cassius, though capable of extraordinary feats, was different. He had a burning desire to leave his superhero persona behind for the majority of his day and simply revel in the joys of his youth. He had never had the push nor drive to jump into the fray, and the constant pressure to save the day, and the never-ending cycle of heroics, was never something that attractive to him. He longed for a sense of normalcy and the ability to savor the simple pleasures of life.

One of his friends exchanged glances, torn between their admiration for Cassius's heroic alter ego and their understanding of his desire for peace. He knew that Cassius was one of the city's brightest beacons of potential, but they also recognized that he was just a young adult who deserved a break from the relentless drama that accompanied his dual life.

[color=7df9ff][i]“They’re doing fine, to be honest, I think they are holding back, they always do”[/i][/color]


As the world outside continued to tremble, Cassius's internal struggle intensified. He stared at his friends, his eyes filled with a mixture of regret and longing. Deep down, he could hear his mother yearned for him to join the battle, to use his powers for good and make a difference in the world. But today, at this moment, all he wanted was to be a regular guy, laughing with his friends in their cozy booth, and savoring the fleeting joys of youth.

In the end, Cassius decided to remain at the diner, where laughter, friendship, and the simple pleasures of life were a respite from the chaos outside. He knew that the world would always call upon him to be a hero, but for now, he just wanted to be a kid, relishing a moment of tranquility amidst the storm of superheroic duty, as it came into an inevitable stop as Typhoid Mary was stopped in her tracks after an intense battle, luckily no one was hurt, but there was still a coiling knot in Cassius’ chest, as he whispers to himself: “Sorry ma…”.

[hr][hr]

💞 Ororo Munroe (Storm) & Kurt Wagner (Nightcrawler) 💞
A loving mother and father, both with a full-time job of saving the world from constant peril, results in many nights that Cassius is found eating alone in his room. His resentment towards his parents is closely matched by his love and admiration for them, for being a child of these two great mutants, comes with the heavy burden, of both wanting to make them proud and to also find his own footing in the world.
Whilst Storm has always wanted to shape her son into becoming her eventual replacement, Nightcrawler wanted a safer and more controllable environment, away from the dangers of being a superhero. With constant debate between the 2 of them, Cassius always found himself split between two worlds that almost never managed to coexist.
[hr]
💕💜 Jason Lee 💜💕
Amongst the sea of friends that Cassius has made, there are only a few that he truly trusts, and even amongst them, Jason is a diamond in the rough. From middle school to college, they were always there for each other. Both majoring in Astrophysics, their rivalry and good sportsmanship have sparked a brotherhood so fruitful, that Jason is the only one amongst all of Cassius' friends to actually know his secret identity.
[hr]
🎆 Thor 🎆
The Son of Asgard itself, weaving of thunder and lightning, is a man so strong that he basically does as he pleases. Cheerful and carefree, Cassius relates to Thor a lot, down to the point of him not being up to his more demanding parent, ever since being able to spark his first tiny bolts, he has always looked up in admiration to the god of lightning as a shining role model and hero.
[hr]
👹 Thanos 👹
Having robbed him of his parents for so many years, and turning the world into a festering pool of crime that to this day it has yet to recover, Cassius holds a special turmoil and detestation towards the mad titan, as per the mere mention of his name sets Cassius off his rails, wanting nothing but to grasp the chance to deck the madman right across his distinctively weird creased chin.
