[b]Gender:[/b] Male [b]Arc name:[/b] The weight of words [b]Arc bio:[/b] (for GM eyes only) [b]Power or ability:[/b] [u]Gravitational manipulation [/u] [indent]Arden has the ability to alter, bend and reverse gravity within a limited capacity and time. This ability is similar to a frequency effect and produced from his lungs and guided by his hands. It may appear like a breath attack, yet the affect is not in the space of his voice/breath but where it hits. [/indent] [b]Personality:[/b] Arden never speaks. Ever. For this reason he often comes across as shy and reserved. He is quite cautious and timid around strangers. When he is comfortable around others they will learn he is highly curious, if not somewhat eccentric. To say Arden was an odd child would be an understatement, to assume he had out grown it would be gravely inaccurate. Just as genius can be found in the misfortunate and mad, the inner workings of Arden's mind were both a mysterious blessing and a curse. At certain times he not so much lacks empathy but is totally void of even the notion of it. This can be discomforting coming from someone who's hard to read with their thoughts forever locked away. Most the time he appears light hearted and aloof. Despite his oddities he is quite caring and prone to sharing an honest smile. [b]Bio:[/b] Born the way he is, he had an inclining of his powers with glimpses of what he could do but it wasn't until his abduction by a secret government agency that his powers fully came to fruition. Arden's parents where hysteric at his loss. With no leads to go on, the police were helpless in his recovery. Years passed yet their resolve never faulted and their search never ended. Suddenly one day, for unknown reasons, Robin stepped in and got personally involved in this families mundane missing persons request. Arden was soon rescued from the institute. He quickly reunited with his family but despite all their love and happiness, his awkward ways and new found abilities were not suited to assimilating into a normal life. Realising he was a burden Arden, with his parents blessing, sought to join the Titans. [b]Weapon:[/b] A mystical cloak. [hider=Things left untold] THE TRUTH OF THINGS UNTOLD Arden's life is filled with half truths and secrets. Little does he know that the people who raised him are not his true parents at all, nor does he know the dark truth that he was born into a demonic ritual. It was there deep below the ground in a hidden cave, illuminated by candles and decorated in unholy cursive's that Arden was discovered, mid ritual, shortly after his birth, by [url=https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Devil]Blue Devil[/url]. Blue Devil had been tracking down the mysterious unnamed cult for some time who were relentlessly trying to unleash horrifying evils upon the world. Supposedly saving the new born child, the occult ritual was interrupted and a vicious gate opened up, tearing the fabric of realms, sucking all the occultists down to hell before Blue Devil managed to shut it just in time to save the child and himself. Sensing no evil from the innocent new born, Daniel Cassidy took the child and the cloak he was wrapped in to the most caring and loving people he knew, his cousin Vera Cassidy and her husband Andrew Vaude. Unable to have their own child they were overwhelmed and took him in, raising him as their own. (Little did anyone realise at that time that it was no ordinary cloak that the child was wrapped in.) ------ Vera (Cassidy) Vaude. Aka VV / Vee-Vee Distant cousin to Daniel, a special effects make up artist, she held the family name until marrying Andrew Vaude. Andrew Vaude, a safety director, once a practising circus acrobat, had an accident that left him in a wheel chair or crutches at the least. Andrew once worked with the flying Greysons and that connection to Robin is why he got noticed and the Titans sought to help find his missing (adopted) son. ---------- Deeper secrets still to reveal within his story arc. [hider=Story Arc] THE ARC Organisations within organisations. Arden's abilities are by no chance coincidental, or at their full potential and purpose. Arden is the result of years of demonic pacts and conniving scheming. His true 'purpose' is to be a conduit for demonic spirits. Through his ability dark spirits can reach out and posses the living. The gravity manipulation is but a side effect of his true purpose. It was Arden who tore open the hole that saw the occultists dragged to the other side, but even that was part of the plan to a seclusive few. The demons they worship would not settle for just any vessel, most normal humans couldn't contain the demonic powers they possessed. Their end game is to posses supers. Arden's ability was developing slowly, so under the guise of a different organisation the remaining cultists infiltrated the government and set to kidnapping Arden to boost his power and push him in the direction of using it. Meanwhile the cultists present at his birth, set things in motion from the other side. The more Arden uses his power on someone, and the more fierce his intensity and focus, the closer and closer that person comes to sharing their body with a demonic entity. At first it might be slight bad thoughts, or evil whispers. Then moments of uncontrollable anger or bouts of black outs. At first they might struggle with the intrusion or may even embrace the new power. But eventually bit by bit the demonic entity will take over its host. [/hider] [/hider] [/hider]
