A character I've been working on, though he still needs some work. {IN-PROGRESS}

[hider=Howard Guan -- Coinflip]
[b]Name:[/b] Howard Guan
[b]Alias:[/b] Coinflip/"Union"
[b]Speech Color:[/b] ????
[b]Alignment:[/b] “Hero”
[b]Identity:[/b] Secret

[b]Personality[/b]: Howard is a man divided on many, many levels. Alienated from his birth by crime and adoption, he often struggles with a measure of discontent regarding his family and circumstances - and even when things are going well, he tends to feel like something is missing. As a result, he has a tendency to “overextend” himself, manifesting elements of a controlling or even narcissistic person. Most prominently, he is quick to find excuses for any problems he or others face - even after fusing with Union, he is quick to blame his former boss or others for his mistakes and the side effects of his failed experiments.
The other Howard - who is called “Union” to distinguish him - is a much more relaxed and confident person, dangerously charismatic. He is also extremely certain - of his place in the universe, and how he is one of the few who can stop the darkness that is slowly corrupting his universe. Both versions tend to come off as somewhat conceited, just for fundamentally different reasons.

[b]Costume:[/b] At "Union's" suggestion, Howard has created a suit designed to limit and "filter" any potential negative side effects of forcing matter to swap dimensions. This repurposed white and purple hazmat suit is streamlined and body-tight. It is based on designs from Union's home universe, using a mixture of polymers and metallic (silver, lead, copper) linings that are padded at the joints and neck. Most prominently, it contains a small electromagnetic generator at the base of the spine that is wired up to a series of coils that stretch up and around the middle of the suit, charging a protective field to more easily direct the flow of tachyons.

[b]Origin:[/b]		{In-Progress}

[b]Hero Type:[/b] 	Grey Matter/Other
[b]Power Level:[/b] 	Street Level (in practice); World Level (hypothetically)
[b]Powers:[/b]		Howard possesses the ability to “swap” matter between the two universes that he has combined. There is no excess energy created, but this works at the atomic level and the resulting displacement of materials can often have unexpected side-effects. For example, swapping a locked door in this universe might replace it with part of a tree, causing injury to others caught off-guard or even causing the building to collapse.
			-- A secondary effect of this power is that, when touching matter he intends to swap, he can begin to perceive the resultant effect by concentrating on it and closing his eyes.
			-- When using this power, there is a small chance that he will himself switch places with Union. This effect is cumulative, so the more he uses his power, the more the chance increases.

[b]Weaknesses:[/b] Howard is fundamentally a normal human being, physically speaking - he is thus as vulnerable to physical harm as anyone else. In addition to this, the fusion did not perfectly combine their minds, so when they switch there is often a lapse in memory - black outs or short-term amnesia, or concrete knowledge being replaced by vague feelings of deja vu, are all common place. Occasionally, the two of them will remember things that neither of them have experienced. "Union" theorizes this is some sort of "bleeding over" effect from any universes "between" their own.
[indent]Of note is that the swapping power itself is somewhat unpredictable. While Howard can usually "perceive" the effects of using his powers, this is not always accurate - on at least two occasions, he's almost impaled himself on shrapnel caused from "swapping" materials in our universe with partially constructed munitions or factory equipment.[/indent]
