SoundWave? Boombox? I don’t know can you come back to me?” [b][color=50C878]Age:[/color][/b] 19 [b][color=50C878]Country of origin:[/color][/b] USA (Seattle, WA) [b][color=50C878]Basic appearance:[/color][/b] 5’11” and thin as paper, Ethan isn't exactly intimidating. Often wearing long sleeved shirts or hoodies to hide not only his size but the needle marks on his arms. Though his eyes are a bright blue, he rarely makes eye contact with anyone but the ground. [Hider=Costume:] [b][color=50C878]Body:[/color][/b] [IMG]http://i.ytimg.com/vi/7DHL4Lmddd4/maxresdefault.jpg[/IMG] (disregard storm trooper helm.) [b][color=50C878]Gloves:[/color][/b] [IMG]https://ccrma.stanford.edu/wiki/Images/c/c0/Img_1276.jpg[/IMG] While not exactly easy on the eyes, Ethan built his suit to be functioning rather than fashionable. Not only can it play some sick beats, but it gives him a source of constant sound waves with speakers pointing in all directions. [/hider] [b][color=50C878]Skills: [/color][/b] Anyone looking for a DJ? No? Well if you ever need one Ethan’s your guy. Basic knowledge of wiring and electrical work. Rather talented at Parkour using it as his form of dodging and moving in combat. [b][color=50C878]Powers:[/color] [/b] [b][color=50C878]Sound manipulation:[/color][/b] Ethan can control sound vibrations and alter them. From pitch to loudness he can manipulate them however he wants. [b][color=50C878]Pros:[/color][/b] Can focus the vibrations into powerful waves that can do physical attacks. Can make himself as loud or quiet as he needs to be. [b][color=50C878]Cons:[/color][/b] Must have physical contact with the vibrations in order to control them. [Hider=Bio] [b][color=50C878]Brief bio:[/color][/b] Ethan's home life was a mess. Between his parents constant fighting and sharing a room with his annoying siblings, he couldn't get any peace. Instead, he avoided home at all costs. During the day he would hangout with friends doing things like parkour around the city or just chilling and paying games. When night rolled around, he would usually hit up a party or two or just wonder the streets of the Emerald City listening to whatever tunes he had on his iPod. Unfortunately, the crowd Ethan ran with was not a good one, and in time found himself addicted to an assortment of drugs. It was no coincidence this also started around the time his powers began to manifest. It was one thing to feel and control the sounds of the world, but to experience it while on a high was indescribable. Though without a job or any money, he had no way to pay for the drugs. His dealers decided the use of his skills on certain jobs would be perfect for paymeny. From carjacking to shakedowns, Ethan was their go to guy for all of it. After all, it was easy to get away with things when you could make the walls shake with your voice, or make no noise at all. Things wouldn't stay quiet for long. The sudden rise of crime caught the attention of SHIELD who quickly began investigating the situation. It wasn't long before Ethan and people he was working for were tracked down and arrested. Though he was looking at some serious jail time, all charges against him were suddenly dropped and Ethan was set free. Though he wasn't told who gave the order, he was given an application to the Avengers Academy with a message attached to it. [I]“You have the potential to make a difference in this world. Don't waste it."[/I] Whether it was someone believing in him or just wanting to change his ways, Ethan decided to take the opportunity. After a year getting sobered up and training his powers, he sent in the application and readied to start life of a hero. [/hider] [Hider=FOUO] [b][u][color=50C878](For official use only)[/color][/u][/b] [b][color=50C878]Initial observation report:[/color] [/b] Ethan has a basic control of his powers, but he still has a ways to go. His intelligence is average but his physical prowess is lacking. [b][color=50C878]Training regimen/expertise:[/color] [/b] Though his powers are strong, his body is not. It's recommended he go into physical combat and weight training. That being said he still has many abilities to unlock. Concentration and power focus classes are suggested. Finally, due to his troubled past, it would be wise to put him in the obedience protocol training to keep him from slipping back. [b][color=50C878]Potential outlook: [/color][/b] Could become a symbol of redemption showing that even those who have fallen so far can become the best. [b][color=50C878]Best case scenario: [/color][/b] Gaining full control of his powers and addictions, Ethan could very well be among the top heros and mutants to pass through the academy. [b][color=50C878]Worst case scenario:[/color] [/b] Should Ethan fall back into old habits, it's likely he will be at the mercy of whatever drug lord gets to him first and will use his skills as a way of payment.
