[hider=Cal West]
Cs:

Name:
Clavin West (goes by Cal)

Super name:
The red racer

Age:
20

Gender:
Male

Powers:
Speed: everything about him is speed. He thinks fast, runs fast, eats fast...that type of fun. Downside is his metabolism is enhanced meaning that he must consume large amounts of food to keep up with his body. (Like a hummingbird.) If he does not eat enough he will get nauseated and will pass out. He also cannot get drunk, but he does not know this as of yet.

Healing: excelerated healing. Very useful for if he skins his feet or breaks a bone.  The more minor the wound the less time it takes.

Skills:
His intelligence is one notable skill. With fast thinking, he can do things like speed read, solve complex math problems, and memorize important things (textbook chapters or equations) with increased speed and remember it. Not exactly flip through and have it down but much faster then the average person.

Parkour is another notable skill. He can leap about and bend way too well. 

Clumsy...somehow being fast has lead to him being increasingly clumsy. His main enemy is an untied shoe or a rock he didn't see. He has gotten better though.

Appearance:
Well built with flaming red hair and green eyes Cal stands at 6 foot 1. His skin holds a dusting of freckles and he is hardly seen without a smile. he usually wears jeans, red converse high tops, a red hoodie, and varying shades of t shirts.

Suit:
Cal's suit is made of a material to decrease friction. It is all red with two yellow lightning bolts on his hips. His matching shoes have specialty soles so he does not run through the soles and skin his feet.

Bio:
To put it lightly, cal grew up without the sense of family. He was in foster care for most of his life until the west family adopted him at age 16. The main reason being that his best friend found out that he was in foster care and felt that everyone needed some form of family. He excelled in school and actually graduated from high school extremly early before moving on into the forensics program. He found he had a knack for it and his adoptive father was in law enforcement. He felt a calling and he went for it basically.

Where does his power come into this history? Well before he went with the wests he realized he could read at excelerated speeds. Which isn't exciting until Cal reached high school. His reading was incredibly fast and he realized he could run fast after running 5 laps on the track faster then most could run 2 with that realization, he kept to running when he was alone and worked on slowly pushing the speeds. He started having to eat more as his ability increased causing him to be seen with jerky sticks sticking out of his hoodie pocket. 

His adoptive father figured out his adopted son's abilities after an incident causing cal to trip...for 4 miles...
Cal was given the option to join a year ago and took it. He wants to help people and what better way then by working with the government.
