His career has made him young and immature. He is still in his sleep-around phase and has yet to give it up. Although, he does dream of having a woman who would stick around. One who he could make breakfast for, who he could wake up and see sleeping next to him every morning and not someone who he would have to kick out. He wants a smart woman who supports his dreams, doesn’t love him just for his money, and who doesn’t try to hold him back. Someone who he is comfortable with and who he doesn’t have to hide from.[/indent] [img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjM2LmJjYjMwYi5RWEJ3WldGeVlXNWpaUSwsLjAAAAAAAA,,/mdma.regular.png[/img] [indent]Levi is a beautiful man and he has inherited his father’s belt. Cocoa butter skin, springy black curls, and eyes of honey. It’s no wonder the women melt at the sight of him and his voice steals their hearts. Tattoos line his arms, the muscles of his back, and form a low necklace beneath his collar bones that say the quote above: “Where words fail music speaks.” Beneath his navel across the solid expanse of his abdomen is written: “I [i]pick[/i] you.” He has one nose ring on his right nostril, he wears hoops along the lower shells of his ears, and he wears low-hanging necklaces about his neck. The man is tastefully ripped for being only a guitar player maybe because he does more than just play music![/indent] [center][img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjQ4LmQ5MDg0MS5WR2hsSUUxNWRHZywuMAA,/big-quicksand.regular.png[/img][/center] [img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjM2LmJjYjMwYi5VR0Z1ZEdobGIyNCwuMAAAAAAAAAA,/mdma.regular.png[/img] [indent]Greek[/indent] [img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjM2LmJjYjMwYi5SMjlrYkhrZ1VHRnlaVzUwLjAAAAAAAAAAAA,,/mdma.regular.png[/img] [indent][b]Apollo[/b] - The God of Music, Poetry, Art, Oracles, Archery, Plague, Medicine, Sun, Light and Knowledge.[/indent] [img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjM2LmJjYjMwYi5VRzkzWlhKei4wAAAAAAAAAAAAAA,,/mdma.regular.png[/img] [list][*][b]Sound Manipulation[/b] - Levi can create, shape, and manipulate sound, a periodic disturbance of the medium (air, ground, water, etc.) that radiates outward in straight lines in the form of a pressure wave. The effect these waves produce upon the ear is perceived as sound. He can generate high frequencies and frequencies low enough to cause internal damage to others. He can intensify, hush, distort, as well as warp, strengthen, and slow down the sound using his guitar. As this power is in its early stages of development and has yet to be truly discovered as an actual power, Levi believes that his electric Stratocaster, [b]Jezebel[/b] is a lucky and magical instrument and is the true producer of the glorious sound that accompanies his music when really it is its user. [*][b]Song of Energy[/b] - Levi plays a song that can raise the spirits of those around him, greatly improving their performance on the battlefield. It is the music that inspires one to go on, go harder, and to never give up! [*][b]Precognition[/b] - Levi has the ability to foresee possible futures and observe what may happen. This ability sometimes occurs in the form of mysterious dreams or can randomly occur in the middle of an activity. The visions are vivid as though Levi was transferred to another time and place, while in reality, an instant to a few seconds have passed. This same ability can function to allow him to predict a possibility to an action, which grants him anticipation, but the future is never set in stone. The future and its outcomes can always change. At this time, Levi does not see this ability as an ability but an unexplained phenomenon that has reoccurred throughout his life. At times, he doesn't even know what to think of his dreams and visions, and feels that they would be too awkward to share. Everyone would think he's crazy.[/list] [img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjM2LmJjYjMwYi5SbUYwWVd3Z1JteGhkdywsLjAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA,/mdma.regular.png[/img] [indent]Using his power puts a strain on his vocal chords making it difficult to sing for prolonged periods, which differs from the hours he spends in concert. Normally singing doesn’t bother him, but when he taps into his divine power, his vocal chords will start to strain depending on the intensity of his music. His backup for this problem is the sound that he can amplify from his guitar. He can continue to perform using his guitar if ever he loses his voice due to strain, but his fingers will start to ware when playing with his powers. Levi relies on his voice and hands to produce his sound. If he ever loses both, then he can only rely on the natural sounds around him, which isn’t at all effective for manipulation for they aren’t targeting a specific threat. Regardless, if Levi’s voice goes during a battle and if his guitar is ever broken, then he and the team are out of luck and support.[/indent] [center][img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjQ4LmQ5MDg0MS5WR2hsSUV4bFoyVnVaQSwsLjAA/big-quicksand.regular.png[/img][/center] [img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjM2LmJjYjMwYi5VR1Z5YzI5dVlXeHBkSGssLjAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA/mdma.regular.png[/img] [indent]Levi is a rock star and stereotypically he partakes in the three main musts: sex, drugs, and rock and roll. He doesn’t drug as heavy as some cokeheads. The hardest thing he has ever hit was weed for despite not having a high school diploma, he still had common sense not to go harder than that. He smokes cigarettes on a regular basis, and he might partake in a cigar or a fresh bag of Mary every once in a while. He drinks socially and he can hold his liquor pretty well. When he isn’t in concert, he dedicates time to writing music, painting, and going outside. Outside, he takes long walks or runs a few miles, and he’ll workout at the local gym or playground. He doesn’t stay out too long for, well, he’s a celebrity and people are insane. When Levi’s invited to parties by other singers and celebrities, he usually doesn’t stay for long. He doesn’t know those people and a lot of those people just invite him just so that they can say he was there. He likes quieter occasions such as private dinners, movie nights at home, and just anywhere where he can be alone or if he is with someone, where he can focus only on that person and not be distracted by people and things who don’t matter. When Levi is attracted to someone, he will flirt with the person and tease her. When he’s convinced that the girl likes him back, then he’ll try to serenade her. Yeah, its old school, but he believes that it’s pretty effective. He’s smooth with his words and tries to make his dates just as memorable as his concerts even if they may not work out in the end. He doesn’t want to regret anything. Overall, Levi is a cool, soft-spoken guy who doesn’t raise his voice for nobody for he feels he shouldn’t have to. Ain’t nobody got time for that. For being soft-spoken, when he’s in front of a mic, people are usually amazed by the sound that leaves him. Where is that voice coming from?! He isn’t the strongest of the godlings and he performs mostly a support role, but the biggest mistake one could make is assume that he is weak. He will stand up to any brute no matter the size or power level if that person is harming another person for unjust reasons. He especially doesn’t like when a man lays a hand on a woman and regardless if the man and the woman were a couple, he will punch the dude in his face [you can see his history for those reasons].[/indent] [img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjM2LmJjYjMwYi5TR2x6ZEc5eWVRLCwuMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA,/mdma.regular.png[/img] [indent]Levi was born and raised in The Bronx, New York by his mother Monique Cruz. He grew up never knowing his biological father, but he wanted to believe that he was a better man than the one that came after him. Monique married a possessive, controlling, and abusive man by the name of Antoine Hoskins. He was an amateur rapper who believed that he was destined to make it big with his shitty lyrics. All the guy could produce was a good beat, which was the only thing rappers could produce that was worth listening to during that time. Antoine tried to get Levi to write rap music instead of the poetic crap he’d fill his diaries with, but Levi was too in love with his guitar. At times, he would stay late at school practicing so that he wasn’t in a hurry to return home. Antoine was quite the bully that whenever Levi refused to do what he wanted him to do, he always got a backhand or a fist. Around middle school, Levi was fed up. After the eighth grade, he vowed to grow stronger so that he could liberate him and his mother from the bastard. Along with Music Appreciation, Levi took Weight Lifting. He wanted to learn how to work every muscle in his body that mattered. He participated in amateur boxing at the local gym, which he liked to do during the weekday because it gave him a better excuse as to why he wasn’t coming home on time. Levi’s career took off when he had managed to build an amateur garage band with the kids in his Music Appreciation class by the name of [b]Apollyon[/b]. Their band mascot was some Icarus-figure who was flying toward the sun. He started writing his music and applying his lyrics to the sound. Next thing he knew it, his band was in a talent show at school winning first place, and then they entered a Battle of the Bands competition. His band won first place again and they earned $50,000 that he fairly split with each of his members. A man approached him afterwards by the name of [b]Dan Henderson[/b]. He shocked Levi by offering him a contract and a nice chunk of change. He was going to be living his dream! Unfortunately, he had to leave his bandmates in order to enter the contract and he figured by giving them the rest of the competition money, that they were able to split on good terms. Overjoyed, he returned home (unexpectedly to Antoine). Levi entered the house to overhear Monique yelling at Antoine for being a bum and how he needed to get a job instead of relying on a rap career that wasn’t ever going to take off. Antoine hadn’t liked her dissing his dreams, and in retaliation, he harshly silenced her yelling with the back of his hand. It was the moment Levi had been waiting for for such a long time. Just seeing Antoine backhand his mother made something in him snap. Levi rushed the guy and beat his ass. Monique, fashioning and swollen and bloody lip, screamed for Levi to stop but he didn’t until the guy beneath him stopped moving. Antoine was still alive, but his face wasn’t ever going to be the same again. Levi was furious to see his mother crying over such a loser, and although it might not have been the most appropriate moment, he dumped the news on her about his contract. He begged for her to leave Antoine and to come with him so that they could start a new life, but she refused. She also wanted Levi not to pursue his dream and to give up the opportunity in order to finish high school. Levi looked at his mother as though she had lost her mind for he had long made up his. Levi went to his room, packed up his bags, and left everything behind: school, his mother, and especially that son of a bitch Antoine. To this day, he never regretted leaving for the doors opened up to him after that. Fame and fortune carried him away, and nearly brainwashed him of his old life. Every now and then he feels the urge to call his mother to check on her for it had been years since he last seen her, but he doesn’t. He fears what might have become of her. What she might say. What he might hear. Instead, he keeps putting the phone call on the back burner.[/indent] [img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjM2LmJjYjMwYi5SbUZ0YVd4NS4wAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA,/mdma.regular.png[/img] [indent][b]Monique Hoskins/Cruz[/b] – [i]Mother[/i] - Levi loves his mother but he hasn’t talked to her since he left, which was thirteen years ago. He hopes everything is going well with her, and he is afraid to call and find out. He has been telling himself for the past thirteen years to call her, but he never does. Who knows how long he’ll keep telling himself? [b]Antoine Hoskins[/b] – [i]Step-Father[/i] – This man is not his father. He will never accept him or acknowledge him as such. Levi believes that he is nothing but a piece of shit that if he ever left the earth, he would not shed a tear. He hopes that his mother broke away from that dude. [b]Dan Henderson[/b] – [i]Manager[/i] – He’s not exactly family, but Levi accepts him as such. He respects the man for he respects him in return and they’ve been in business together for years. Dan is a father-figure who tries to make sure Levi isn’t doing anything that could damage his reputation and career. Basically, he keeps him out of trouble and keeps him on top of all of his gigs and appointments.[/indent] [img]http://txt-dynamic.static.1001fonts.net/txt/dHRmLjM2LmJjYjMwYi5VbVZzWVhScGIyNXphR2x3Y3csLC4wAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA/mdma.regular.png[/img] To be created with other players.
