[color=A52A2A][b][u]Age[/u][/b][/color] 17 [color=A52A2A][b][u]Gender[/u][/b][/color] Male [color=A52A2A][b][u]Personality[/u][/b][/color] Lito is rather stand-offish, emotionless, and maybe even a little cruel. Though most of this is due to the fact that Lito isn’t really capable of showing his true emotions. Lito is awkward around others at best, though he does try to come off as friendly sometimes this can be a little…intense. He doesn’t fully understand personal space and either gives people entirely too much space, or not enough. Despite all this Lito is a deeply caring individual to those who can get past the initial thick shell, even though he might not always show it. [color=A52A2A][b][u]Appearance[/u][/b][/color] Lito stands at a nice 6 foot 1 inch, with a slender but very slightly muscular build. He sports disheveled fiery red hair and almost sickly pale skin. His yellow eyes often sport a tired or bored expression accompanied by slightly darkened circles. His skin, especially on his arms and hand, is absolutely riddled with various scars. His clothing style is equally as disheveled as his hair and pretty boring. Opting more often than not for a simple pair of jeans, an oversized t-shirt, and a hoodie, though when forced into more formal clothing it is almost always wrinkled, and untucked unless someone fixes it for him. [hider=Cape Appearance] Though instead of white it’s red.

Living on the streets Lito had to learn quickly how to survive. Not just for himself but also to take care of his father. He learned how to steal and how to fight and how to avoid fights fairly quickly. Though it was not without trial and error. At one point. When Lito was 8 or 9 he had been caught by the cops attempting to steal some food from a grocery store. Upon questioning they decided it would be best if Lito was put into the foster care system. This didn’t last long, Lito had run away from his foster home within a week worried for his father. It took him a few months to find the older man but eventually the two were reunited and Lito went back to providing for the two of them. He was much more careful in the years to follow. Begging on the streets for money, dumpster diving, occasional theft when he could, but always careful not to get caught. During this time his father did his best to give Lito a somewhat decent education. At least enough to know the basics, how to read, simple math, the usual. [Actual trigger warning ahead: Violence, Blood, Near Death experience] Lito’s trigger event didn’t happen until he was closer to 14. He and his father had found a decent spot to set up camp for the night and had even managed to scrape together a somewhat decent dinner. As the two were eating a group of burly men walked up to them demanding they hand over everything they had and leave the area. Lito’s father tried to get the teen to simply comply but he didn’t listen. Annoyed by the teen’s audacity they began to move toward him when his father stepped between them. The men decided to teach his father a lesson on raising his kid better first and began to mercilessly beat the injured man while Lito stood there in shock. The men didn’t seem to stop and Lito could see that things were not going to end well for his father if they kept going. He begged the men to stop, telling them they could have what they wanted if they just stopped, but they weren’t listening. Lito, tried to move in to pull the men off his father but he wasn’t strong enough, he was easily batted away by one of the men. In a panic Lito reached for the knife his father normally kept for emergencies only. Cutting himself on the blade in the process. Once again Lito rushes in and once again he is stopped and disarmed. Panicked and helpless, and in tears, Lito wasn’t sure he could save his father who had seemed to lose consciousness at this point. He cried out one last time and this time something happened, the blood seeping from his hand hardened into a spike and lashed out at the men, injuring one of them. In desperation Lito opened another wound on his body and ran at the men, anger in his tear filled eyes. They released Lito’s father and ran, but not before Lito got a solid strike on another of the men. Lito’s attention went to his father as soon as the men were out of eyesight. Lito dragged his father’s unconscious body to the nearest hospital where his father went into surgery as his own wounds were treated. Once bandaged and questioned by officers he was once again entered into the foster care system. This time under much closer watch. He attempted to run away several times however he was caught each time. Eventually he gave up, or so it seemed. When the watch on him finally laxed about a year later he was once again on the streets looking for his father. Though this time he was unable to locate his father. He spent the next two years on the streets looking, unsuccessfully, as well as learning to use this new power of his. Though he mostly stuck to himself. When news of the Ward program reached his ears he was at their door offering, rather unenthusiastically, to join in exchange for help finding his father and then comfortable living for him if/when he was found.

Whether it be to create weapons out of hardened blood or cover parts of his body with it in order to make him more durable. This hardened blood is durable enough to be used to attack however strong enough concentrated power can chip or even completely snap portions off. In order to do this Lito must have an open wound near the area he wishes to create the desired effect. The wound does not need to be deep it simply has to bleed, but the deeper the wound the more reinforcement for blood creation is. [b]Blood Sword:[/b] Usually created by opening a wound in the palm of his hands, he can create Sword blades or daggers. [b]Blood Scythe:[/b] Created by opening larger wounds on his forearms. These require more blood than the sword or the daggers but have a longer reach. [b]Blood Armor:[/b] Lito opens a wound or uses a pre-existing wound to manipulate the blood into a durable armor around the body part. [b]Blood Shield:[/b] Lito creates a small round shield from a wound on his forearm (picture Captain America size) which is strong enough to block most standard bullet rounds. Lito can create other simple items such as pole-arms or hammers however he doesn’t like to make things that he doesn’t view as effective so opts for the main 4 listed above. Blood manipulation takes a lot out of Lito. While the blood is hardened he is not in danger of bleeding out but swapping between blood creations can result in large amounts of blood loss. Though Lito can lose quite a bit more blood than a normal person before passing out he will still reach a limit in which his body can no longer handle it. The more wounds on his body the stronger his ability however the more likely it is he will lose consciousness. He also has to be careful as his body can and will lash out on its own if he pushes himself too hard, with no regard for who is friend or foe. [color=A52A2A][b]•[/b][i]Street Smarts[/i][/color] Having spent most of his life on the streets Lito has learned the eb and flow of street life, as well as various shortcuts around the city. Not to mention the knowledge of where and where not to go at certain times or at all if one wishes to stay out of trouble [color=A52A2A][b]•[/b][i]Street Fighting[/i][/color] Lito has had no formal training when it comes to fighting. His fighting style is not nearly as disciplined as it could be but he is good at thinking on his feet and reacting to quick changes. [color=A52A2A][b]•[/b][i]Heightened Pain Tolerance[/i][/color] Lito’s pain tolerance is significantly higher than the average person’s from several years of intentionally causing bodily harm to himself.

He tends to draw attention in any environment. Very much a people person, and extremely self-confident to boot. He tends to lack a filter when talking to people, a little too honest for his own good. It generally results in people not liking him or being a little put off by his presents. He also actively chooses to ignore people’s personal space, which has gotten him hit on more than one occasion. Add that he can come off as rather vain and you have yourself and ego that can fill an entire room, no, an entire building. [color=f7941d][b][u]Appearance[/u][/b][/color] Lev stands at around 6 ft 4 inches. He isn’t jacked by any means but he is still visibly muscular. His white hair, at its longest point reaches just below his shoulder blades though he tends to keep it tied. His hairstyle is very…long mullet-esc, but he makes it work. Lev is generally very conscious about what he wears, only wearing clothing that “best fits him” after all his appearance is everything to him. [hider=Cape Appearance] [img]https://i.pinimg.com/564x/6f/2a/62/6f2a62bc60e2389836b737cbcbd6b6fc.jpg[/img] [/hider] [color=f7941d][b][u]Biography[/u][/b][/color] Lev comes from immigrant parents who moved from their home country to Redline, Maine when Lev was a very young child, on a work visa. Eventually they all gained official citizenship and Lev had a relatively normal life. His parents worked their way into the upper-middle class so Lev wanted for very little, that was until he was in his early teens. His parents found themselves in a decent sum of debt and in order to get themselves out of the hole at least a little bit, they sold their home and the family moved to a less than savory neighborhood. It was here that Lev learned very quickly, how to please the others around him, how to blend in with any crowd, and how to sweet talk his way out of trouble or into a little extra money. Lev spent his highschool years charming and conning his way into some extra cash, which he used to help his family dig themselves out of debt, very slowly. It was shortly after he graduated High School that his trigger event happened. [TRIGGER EVENT REDACTED] After his trigger he spent some time jumping between people that would pay him the most for his abilities and services. Which resulted in quite a bit of crime. It wasn’t until he was almost caught that he decided the risk wasn’t worth the reward and flipped to working to stop the same crime he once committed. His connections helped him quite a bit though many are still not fully convinced the Cape Fuse is committed to helping people rather than harming them. It doesn’t help that his powers often cause quite a bit of collateral damage which gets him in trouble with the public and the PRT higher ups. This of course doesn’t bother him, as long as he feels he is doing more good than harm he has no intention of changing. It was because of his more…destructive behavior that it was suggested he help out with the Wards program. An attempt to keep him off the streets as much as possible. Lev, of course, knew this, but took it as an opportunity to help kids struggling to find their place with the powers they developed. He of all people knew how easy it was to fall into criminal work so the opportunity to help kids not follow in his path was one he was more than willing to take. [color=f7941d][b][u]Powers/Skills[/u][/b][/color] ╭─────────╮ ╭─────────╮ [color=f7941d][i]Main Class[/i][/color] [color=f7941d][i]Sub-Class[/i][/color] [b]Striker[/b] [b]Blaster[/b] ╰─────────╯ ╰─────────╯ Energy manipulation: Lev can convert the potential energy of inanimate objects into highly explosive kinetic energy, essentially charging any object he choses that he comes into contact with physically onto an explosive. The only limitation Lev seems to have with this is time, the larger the object the more time it takes him to charge. A small rock only talks him a moment whereas a car would take him up to an hour (depending on the size) and a building even longer. The size of the explosion caused by the object is heavily dependent on the object's mass. For example a single charge building might level the entire block it was on whereas a small pebble might have the same force as a firework. In a similar sense, instead of converting the potential energy of an object he and instead accelerate the kinetic energy. This is true of both objects he touches as well as himself. This means that he can make himself as well as the objects he is holding hit harder than they otherwise would normally be able to. [/center] [/hider]
