This ability allows Eli to stretch, flatten, deform, expand, and contract his whole body, including limbs, torso, neck, etc. Furthermore Eli can control how elastic/flexible he or parts of him are, allowing Eli to change his body into various shapes, tools or other constructs. This ability also makes Eli highly durable and essentially invulnerable to most blunt or physical attacks. Eli's bones, organs and entire physical make up all share this trait making him able to survive conditions that would rip most people apart. ■ [B]Size Alteration[/B] | Eli has complete control over the size of him, from as short as three to nearly ten feet tall while retaining his physical proportions. Eli is also capable of specifically expanding his limbs (arms, legs, neck, etc.) to great sizes and lengths separate of his body, allowing for increased reach and range. This also allows Eli to strike opponents at a distance and defeat long-range attackers. ■ [B]Density Control[/B] | Eli can manipulate the density of his skin to improve its durability. However this is directly related to his size, the smaller he is, the more dense he can make his skin but the larger he becomes the less dense he's able to become making him more durable to attacks. Eli can also focus his density changes into specific parts of his body such as his fists to make them stone hard for improved striking abilities. ■ [B]Regeneration[/B] | Eli can rapidly regenerate from any damage to his body. In other words, Eli is able to recreate lost or damaged tissues, organs and limbs. The rate and amount of healing varies widely depending on the nature of the wounds inflicted. Furthermore, in order for Eli to regrow missing limbs, he must put the limb back in place for rapid regeneration. Eli's regeneration doesn't allow him increased stamina or endurance however he is highly resistant to energy attacks and nearly invulnerable to electricity due to his near rubber composition.[/INDENT] [B][I]Limitations/Weaknesses:[/I][/B] [INDENT]■ [B]Temperature[/B] | Sudden changes in high and low temperatures is extremely limiting and harmful to Eli almost completely nullifying his ability and causing his extreme amounts of pain. High temperatures can cause Eli to drop into a liquid like state while freezing temperatures can reduce him to an almost solid like state inhibiting his ability to move. ■ [B]Injury[/B] | While Eli is durable to physical and blunt attacks including most forms of ballistics, bladed weapons, needles and other fine points are still able to cut through his skin and puncture him in a lethal manner. Furthermore his skin is not resistant to toxins, poisons, acids or other corrosives. ■ [B]Over Exertion[/B] | As malleable as Eli is, over exertion or stress can be extremely uncomfortable or even agonizing for him. If Eli is stretched against his will, it will cause him a severe degree of discomfort to the point of pain depending on the force and how far he's stretched. [/INDENT] [B][I]Applications:[/I][/B] [INDENT]■ [B]'Slinging'[/B] | Eli is able to extend his arms and use them to sling himself from point to point. His elasticity furthermore allows him to sling shot himself from one point to another. ■ [B]Gliding[/B] | Eli is able to flatten his body, expanding it and reducing his density to allow him to glide from point to point provided he has enough velocity and altitude before attempting the action. When used in combination with slinging, Eli is capable of travelling vast distances at a relatively fast speed. ■ [B]Combat[/B] | Using all of his abilities, Eli can prove to be a rather formative combatant, capable of using a combination of density shifting, momentum and elasticity to provide devastating blows to his foes.[/INDENT] [B][I]Skills:[/I][/B] [INDENT]■ [B]Pick Pocket[/B] | Due to his past in Detroit, Eli has collected several less than desirable skills, among these is the ability to pick pockets, capable of swiping wallets, keys and jewelry without the owner noticing. His mutant abilities as only further enhanced his skills due to being able to flatten and other shape his hands for the job at hand. ■ [B]Lockpick[/B] | As with pick pocketing, Eli developed his skill for lock picking on the streets of Detroit. Where before he would have needed tools, Eli can now shape his hands to simulate his former tools allowing him to reach into the locks and pick them. Furthermore, he can reach under doors and unlock them from the otherside so long as they are not water tight. ■ [B]B&E Specialist[/B] | On the note of being able to reach under doors, Eli can flatten his entire body to slide under a door, window or through a crack allowing him to infiltrate a building. While before his X-Gene, Eli had to rely on picking the lock now he's able to side step the process. Eli is able to be stealthy enough to break into and enter an occupied building and escape without being caught in most circumstances. ■ [B]Street Fighter[/B] | Having done most of his growing up on the streets, Eli got into numerous fights eventually learning how to brawl. Lacking any formal training, Eli is very pragmatic in combat and more than willing to fight dirty in order to gain an upper hand.[/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT] [color=slategray][B]| B I O G R A P H Y: |[/B][/color] [INDENT][INDENT]Born in South Detroit, Elias Theodore Longo grew up in the rough end of town. Coming from a poor family with an even poorer education, he wasn't instilled with many morals at a young age and grew up barely knowing the difference between right and wrong. In order to bring in extra money for the family, Eli's mother would often work paper routes in the neighborhood, delivering both local papers and national ones such as the Daily Bugle. It was here on the cover of the Daily Bugle that Eli fell in love with Spider-Man. Unfortunately for the neighborhood in which Eli lived, it was the media representation of Spider-Man that Eli fell in love with. Becoming a local menace, Eli learned the skills of the street becoming a thief, pickpocket and began to break and enter into homes and business after hours. As soon as the local law enforcement could, they had Eli thrown into juevie where he spent several years going in and out of as the system permitted him. However, everything changed when Eli's X-Gene activated. Finding himself now able to stretch and shift his body, Eli became even more of a menace to his neighborhood. No locked door could keep Eli out and no pocket was safe from his fingers. Using his abilities to swing from building to building, Eli stole himself a Spider-Man costume and became known as the Spider-Menace of Detroit. As word of the Spider-Menace spread, the media attention brought the Avengers to Detroit and they quickly apprehended and unmasked the young mutant. While Eli could have been imprisoned in the Raft or other superhuman prison, Captain America decided it would be better to give the boy a chance at rehabilitation and as a favour to the late Charles Xavier, delivered Eli into the custody of the X-Mansion. Now on a sort of probation, Eli reluctantly attends the Xavier Institute of Higher Learning.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [color=slategray][B]| M I S C. N O T E S: |[/B][/color] [INDENT][INDENT]■ Eli enjoys skateboarding, snowboarding and surfing. ■ As such, Eli is rarely seen without his skateboard on his back. ■ As a fan of Spider-Man, Eli is often seen wearing various Spider-Man related memorabilia such as t-shirts or beanies.[/INDENT][/INDENT][/INDENT]
