His scraggly figure appears very unhealthy and he always looks ill with his clammy, pale complexion. His deep brown eyes are always strained and red from lack of sleep and the dark bags on his lower eyelids only further emphasise this. His ash blond hair is unkempt and left to grow uneven. On the back of his neck sits a metal plate which covers the entirety of the lower back of his skull, the back of his neck and his shoulders. The plate is a piece of technology that wires directly into his brain. The machine is clearly a burden, as Bryce often walks with a slouch. When wandering around on his own, Bryce will usually wear a grey hoodie and a pair of black jeans with some sneakers. His clothes are ragged, sporting many holes and blood stains. When working as an agent, he pretty much wears the same thing, except with a skull mask to hide his face.[/indent] [color=Moccasin][b][u]Habits and Quirks[/u][/b][/color] [list][*]Stuttering [*]Biting his fingernails [*]Speaks in a French accent [*]Avoids eye contact [*]Restless sleeper [/list] [color=Moccasin][b][u]Likes[/u][/b][/color] [list][*]Video Games [*]Solitude [*]Psychology [*]Music, particularly alternative or indie rock.

He's highly introverted and only finds solace in isolation. Yet at the same time, he worries very deeply what others may think of him. He struggles with the constant anxiety of wanting to be alone, but not wanting to seem like a loner. As you can already assume, he experiences a lot of conflicted thoughts. This trait isn't limited to just socialising. Bryce is known to be very indecisive, even when a somewhat obvious conflict is presented to him. Bryce doesn't think much of himself, and expects everyone around him to share the same opinion. His inability to see his own positive qualities causes him to be quite quick when pushing others away. Yet despite all this, there is a drive within him to change himself. He's surprisingly determined and can come through in the most unlikely situations. While it is hard, it's still possible for some people to crack his shell and become friends with him. He can be a little bit clingy, but that's mostly due to his lack of social experience. That being said, it does take a very patient person to be friends with him as he can be quite moody and often questions whether or not people actually like him. He's been bullied before in his life and is very compassionate to others going through similar struggles. He has a good moral compass, though he's far too shy to ever stand up for what he believes in. Bryce has a deep fear of his own powers and has been known to feel ashamed when using them. In his youth he lacked the means to control the abilities that were thrust upon him. As a result, he's caused quite a few accidents that he's not proud of. He'll never forget what he is, or what he's capable of. For this reason he prefers to only use his powers when necessary. He has conflicted feelings about being enlisted into the Sentinels, since the commitment will definitely require his abilities to be used more often. The fear of causing more harm is enough to keep him up at night.[/indent] [hr][hr] [center][IMG]https://media.giphy.com/media/cVnFdhxifVbxK/giphy.gif[/IMG] [color=LemonChiffon]{[/color]"I'm okay with being alone.

The pair of them would explore the amazing wonders the world had to offer, recording each step for their thousands of invested fans. The two really had a way of making you feel like you were there with them. The young couple would eventually take a break from the travels for a few years, with the birth of their first child Bryce. He was too young to remember much about what happened, but Bryce was very much loved by his parents. In 2022, Bryce had just turned eight years old and his parents made plans to take him on their next trip to China. The couple were going to visit and blog all over the country, starting in Beijing. The trip started out fabulous. but when the threat of war loomed over the couple found themselves trapped in the country with their baby. After a few weeks of keeping a low profile, the two eventually organised with several refugees to flee Beijing by vehicle. However the plan was cut short when the military was found waiting at the drop off site for them. They'd been given a hunch as to several civilians and tourists trying to escape the country. Bryce's parents, along with several other innocent people, were killed. The young boy was taken by the military and sent to an underground laboratory in an unknown rural country area. Bryce was young, but he understood enough to know he was in trouble. For the next few years he was raised by scientists who experimented on him. At first they were subtle tests to measure basic things. Speech, fine and gross motor skills. However as the months went by, the experiments began to grow more severe. Bryce would show up to the lab, be given a dose of anesthetic that put him to sleep, and he would awake hours later with horrible headaches and a sore body. When he was 12, the true nature of the tests began to reveal themselves. The Empire was developing a way of unlocking the full potential of the human mind in order to grant their soldiers psychic abilities. Bryce was not the first to begin experiencing a surge of psionic power. The other test subjects would begin by being able to lift objects with their mind, or speaking to others through thought. Bryce's abilities eventually bloomed, but that was when the first incident occurred. A young Chinese boy who was about the same age as Bryce began to experience incredibly painful headaches and nausea. He caused quite a scene in the dorm the boys stayed in, which quickly escalated into him losing control of his own mental powers. Beds, desks and people were sent flying around the room. Bryce had never seen anything so terrifying. And then it stopped. The boy stopped screaming and collapsed to the floor, eyes vacant. The fear of what had happened began to settle in, and eventually it started happening more and more to other subjects. The scientists merely ignored the passing of these poor people; claiming them to be failures. Bryce began to fear for his own safety. years passed, with more incidents occurring. More failed test subjects, until Bryce was the only one left. The scientists referred to him as their only success, but all he could think about was how he'd spent the last year watching people disappear in front of him. And they had the audacity to want to test him some more. To pump more drugs into him and see how his brain reacted. Bryce was about to receive his dose of anesthetic when he finally took a stand. Easily flinging the men and women away from him, the young Bryce began to escalate in a similar way that the others had. Furniture and people were tossed around like rag dolls, and Bryce had all but accepted his fate. That was when the walls of the laboratory came crashing down, strange men and women armed to the teeth all pointing their weapons at Bryce. Cornered, Bryce froze in fear as the carnage he was causing came to an end. Looking around, he saw that he had injured many of the scientists; even killed a few. He collapsed to the floor, only to be approached by a rough looking man with a cybernetic arm. He introduced himself as Baxter Yates, a former member of the Sentinels. The war had been over for many years, but they had received reports of the Empire still conducting underground experiments. They found the base far too late, and the news that they had only been able to save Bryce saddened many of them. Yet despite that, they were still glad that something could be achieved from the mission. They arrested the remaining scientists, and Baxter took Bryce home to France. 15 years old and orphaned, Bryce had no choice but to be placed in foster care. The family that looked after him were kind and loved him like they were their own. Yet despite their efforts, there were just some things love couldn't fix. Bryce was reclusive, timid and scared of himself. He was enrolled into school but often found himself tormented by a group of bullies who thought he was 'weird'. He made quite the easy target, unfortunately. He eventually stopped attending school, too afraid of relapsing back into that state of rage and losing control of his powers. Thankfully, Baxter offered a solution. Returning into the young boys life once again, Baxter took Bryce to another old comrade. An biological engineer who was also a member of the Sentinels during the war. He created a special machine that was attached to Bryce's back that allowed him to restrict the flow of psionic energies that he released. With the new machine, Bryce wouldn't have to worry about his powers going haywire again. As a parting gift, Baxter also had his friend fashion up the Resonance Blades for Bryce. Grateful to Baxter, Bryce went about his life and graduated high school. It was a struggle, for sure, but he was determined to make Baxter proud of him. And he was. So much so that when Bryce was 25, Baxter signed the young boy up to join the new Sentinels. He was fully confident in Bryce's psionic abilities being a valuable and rare addition to the Sentinels. While Bryce is uncertain about the outcome, he feels as though he owes it to Baxter to at least give it a shot.[/indent] [color=Moccasin][b][u]Place of Origin[/u][/b][/color] [indent]Nice, France.[/indent] [color=Moccasin][b][u]Family[/u][/b][/color] [indent]Antoinette Chevalier - Mother(28).

Whenever Psionic Barrier blocks damage, Bryce gains a burst of speed for a short duration. This effect can stack up to three times. [u]Psionic Barrier[/u] | Bryce projects a barrier of telekinetic energy around either himself or an ally. For a few seconds, the barrier will absorb a limited amount of damage. Psionic Barrier cannot be projected onto the same target twice in a row. [u]Limited Telekinesis[/u] | The Psionic Limiter keeps Bryce's powers under control, greatly hindering his telekinetic abilities. He's able to move small objects, but anything larger than a small dog is a struggle for him. The exception to this is his Resonance Blades. [u]Limiter Release: Psionic Field[/u] | Bryce turns off his psionic limiter, unleashing the full power of his abilities for a moderate duration. Psionic Field creates a vortex of telekinetic energies with Bryce at the center. For the duration, any projectiles fired in Bryce's general area and sucked into the vortex and destroyed; converting them into stored energy. When Psionic Field is released, Bryce releases a radial discharge of energy that increases in power based on how many attacks he absorbed.[/indent] [color=Moccasin][b][u]Weapons[/u][/b][/color] [indent][u]Psionic Limiter[/u] | While not a weapon, the Psionic Limiter is the machine attached to Bryce's back. While active, it keeps Bryce's powers stable. [u][url=http://i.imgur.com/REHvtiu.png]Resonance Blades[/url][/u] | Eight blades that share similar technology to Bryce's Psionic Limiter. Each blade has in-built psionic censors that operate on the same wavelength as Bryce's brain. This allows him to control each blade with telekinesis much easier than he'd be able to control any other object. However his control of the blades is still limited, and they must remain within five meters of him or he will lose control of them.[/indent] [color=Moccasin][b][u]Extra[/u][/b][/color] [indent]My favorite character is Genji.
