The random "whoops sorry" in OOC was just me accidentally posting this there.

Name: Daniel "Dan" Kilter
Gender: Male
Appearance: Tall, white, with blond curls, broken glasses and a slight tan. Not attractive but not necessarily unattractive either. Wears a gray hoodie and black sweatpants, both stained with dirt.
Powers/"gifts": Able to animate any "sculpture" that he touches. These "sculptures" are defined as any 3D object, that loosely resembles a humanoid or animal of some sort. Sculptures' abilities and durability depend on their appearance, composition, and quality. Dan has varying degrees of control over them. Sculptures immediately de-animate whenever Dan is unconscious for any reason.

Examples of possible sculptures: A featureless humanoid clay dummy, a 3D wood carving of an animal, various objects taped together in a vaguely humanoid shape.(If a sculpture is of something mythological such as a dragon or a many armed man, it will still be animated because it counts as "resembling" an animal)

Examples of unanimatable things: A drawing because the object must be 3D to be effected, A sculpture of something like a tree because sculptures must resemble something mobile, A toy car because sculptures must resemble something alive.

Backstory: After fleeing from his abusive family at age 9, Dan lived off the streets. He knew the city like the back of his own hand. He knew where to get stuff, and where not to go. He could usually find a way to be paid, doing odd jobs like delivery for various gangs, without stealing except for a few desperate times. Still, at times he thought the street life wasn't for him. He knew he had potential as an artist. He would collect junk, and spend extra-cash on any cool stuff that his friends would sell. He used all this stuff to build sculptures. Crude, abstract, and usually only barely recognizable as something meant to look like human or animal, but surprisingly artistic for someone with no experience. Dan discovered his "gift" after a project he'd call "Katboy". It was a stuffed animal he had sewn himself, basically a sack with arms, legs, a tail, button eyes, and cat-like ears. Dan was admiring his work when it animated in his hands. Very soon after, he realized he could use his ability on other things... but then [insert whatever ever the Collecting is] happened.
Other: Please, can Katboy be pet-friend?
