[h1]General Info[/h1]
[b]Full Legal Name:[/b]  Aaron Eli Sawyer
[b]Gender:[/b] Male
[b]Age:[/b] 14, 08/21
[b]Nationality:[/b] American
[b]Height:[/b] 6’
[b]Weight:[/b] 163
[b]Blood type:[/b] A+
[b]Appearance:[/b] Aaron’s subdued, like the kind of person that doesn’t seem to have a whole lot of energy about him. He’s calm, seemingly level-headed, and keeps his head down. Very quiet... not that Aaron can help in that regard because he’s a born mute. Now, Aaron is African-American and Cuban - though a lot of people would be unable to tell that. His father was African-American and his mother was Cuban, though he looks fully black. The boy is very tall for his age, already at six-feet even due to his explosive growth spurt at puberty, and still has a lot of growing to do. He’s not super muscular, but he has a bit of a runner’s body; he has toned legs and he’s working on getting a pumped-up chest.
[h1]Hero Info[/h1]
Quirk Class (Emitter) - 	Kinetic Charging.


[b]Quirk Basics:[/b] Aaron can absorb ambient energy, convert it into kinetic energy, and use it to charge objects to increase their force and impact.
	[b]Quirk Details:[/b] Where ever Aaron goes, he absorbs a bit of energy in the area. Obviously, it’d be kinetic energy, but he also absorbs ambient heat, electrical, sonic, solar, etc, etc and converts it into energy. He stores it within himself like a battery, holding it in until he needs it, and because he’s constantly converting it, it’s almost like he’s a generator. He can’t seem to absorb non-ambient energy, unfortunately. What does Aaron do with this kinetic energy? It’s simple, he charges objects with it to increase their speed and impact - to the point where he can make a baseball bat strong enough to knock down a wall. With this ability, he uses it to charge baseballs, rocks, and other objects with a large amount of kinetic energy to turn them into a quirk-charged missile. Whenever he charges objects with kinetic energy, they glow with strange red electricity (except not electricity). The quirk doesn’t seem to work on people, so Aaron can’t charge himself or other people - seemingly a limit to protect himself? Now, this ability isn’t exactly the most stamina efficient quirk, nor is it the most painless. The ability has a bit of recoil and knockback, say if he throws a supercharged baseball, the recoil will knock him off balance. If he charges his bat and tries to knock down a wall, he’ll definitely get knocked over by the impact. Along with nausea, and the fact that subtly draining electricity from his environment drains his phone much faster.

[b][h1]Background Info[/h1][/b]

	[b]Personality:[/b] When you’re mute, it’s very hard for people to get a good handle on your personality. Some people think that Aaron is some personality-less freak, but he’s booming with personality. He can’t speak, so he uses verbal actions, and Aaron can be quite sassy. The boy was raised to be prideful and can be quite arrogant. The boy doesn’t like backing down from a challenge and is known to make his feelings about things very well known… well, as far as a kid that’s mute can. He’s confrontational and responds to aggression, with even more aggression. He can be a bit hard to get along with, to say the least, due to a mixture of his inability to talk and the fact that he can be quite a dick from time to time.

However, Aaron still has a strong sense of justice… or his interpretation of it. He tries to do the right thing despite the right thing not always being the right thing. He struggles with his cynicism and his attempts to break out of that vicious self-hating cycle by at least trying to find some hope. The boy is discovering a growing interest in women.


	[b]History:[/b] Aaron was born and raised in Miami, Florida, to a not so wealthy family. They didn’t have the most money, but they made the most of it. What didn’t make things easy was the fact that Aaron was born mute due to a birth defect in his tongue. He couldn’t speak at all, but he didn’t let that stop him as he quickly learned ASL and tried to express himself. However, growing up, people looked down on him and bullied him because he couldn’t speak - calling him stupid, useless, and more. However, Aaron wouldn’t let that stop him as their mocking only motivated him to become better, and at the urging of his father; he picked up sports. Basketball wasn’t his thing, neither was football… but baseball was his passion, natural talent of his. He became the star on his school’s baseball team. However, while practicing, he discovered his quirk - previously thought that he didn’t have one - as he was a late bloomer. He accidentally charged a baseball and sent it flying out of the stadium.

Needless to say, he was not allowed back on the baseball team. Seeing that didn’t go super well, Aaron decided to become a pro-hero. The best step to becoming a pro-hero was joining a hero school, so he looked into the good old Northstar. He trained and practiced his ass off for the entrance exam… and I’ll not waste your time further by saying that he at least was passing. Unfortunately, the jump from Miami to rural Oregon was a big one.

	[b]Trivia:[/b] Aaron’s theme song is Soul by Ox.[/hider]
