He wanted to be like the heroes in the stories, in the legends - and some of them had powers. He used to theorize that Hercules might have been one of the first mutants, rather than strictly a demigod. He had a little diary he carried around with him, where he'd record anything that could potentially be the sign of a power manifesting. He tested himself regularly, monitoring how much weight he could lift, how fast he could run, spending hours attempting to move objects with his mind - and ironically, he missed his power when it first came about. He had been wandering around in Chinatown and didn't notice that he could roughly understand everything that was being said. He first properly noticed this power when out at dinner with his mothers at age 13, when he calmly ordered his food in fluent Italian, despite only speaking English and Russian. His secondary power, the ability to teleport, he discovered while at school in gym class. It was dodgeball day and Percy suddenly disappeared and reappeared about ten feet away, just as a ball had been about to nail him in the head. [/hider] [Hider=General History] Percy is the only child of Dr. Dominika Novikova (Mom) and Dr. Naomi Levy (Mame). Dominika and Naomi had been friends while they both worked at SHIELD, where Dominika had been stationed in the field as an enhanced fighter and scientist, and Naomi was employed as an archivist. Their paths temporarily drifted apart, as Dominika was fired from SHIELD for her involvement in the creation of Ultron with Dr. Hank Pym and then became engaged to one of her fellow agents, although the engagement did not last. She relocated to California to continue to work with Pym, as well as joining the West Coast Avengers. Similarly, Naomi received an offer to work at the Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens in Los Angeles. With the two of them both again in the same area, they reconnected and became something a little more than just gal pals. And after their wedding, they conceived Percy by IVF. Growing up, Percy was never really interested in playing with other kids. He liked to read, devouring just about any book that he could get his hands on. The classics were always his favorite. He was obsessed with Ancient Greece and its mythology, imprinting heavily on the Percy Jackson series (after all, he had the same name as the protagonist). His mame, Naomi, encouraged and nurtured this obsession, regularly bringing him new books to read and impressing upon him the importance of understanding cultures and societies of the past to better understand the present. His mothers were hardly surprised when Percy was diagnosed as being on the spectrum - both of them were as well. Beyond books, of course, he also loved to explore - a passion that connected him more with Dominika. She had had a similar wanderlust at his age, although his parents did not at the time realize the extent of his roaming. He would routinely end up in areas he had not business being in, and once his mutant powers had manifested, his teleportation gift allowed him to escalate into petty crimes, such as shoplifting (alcohol). In other times, though, his parents would adventure with him - Naomi had her pilot's license, and the three of them would climb into the small family plane and just [i]fly[/i]. But his life was by no means easy. Beginning in elementary school and continuing through middle school, Percy was severely bullied. The other kids picked on his height, his name, his personality and sexuality - and he was somewhat powerless to fight back. He was thrown into lockers and trash cans, shoved down in gym class, pelted with dodgeballs - all of the classics. It was this bullying that drove him to binge drinking, viewing alcohol as a tool to allow him to quiet his emotions and steady his mind. At the same time, it also pushed him away from a more childlike, kind, and sweet personality, into one that was more quick to anger, more guarded, more hardened to the world and the pain it could inflict. So when his powers developed, Percy was more than thrilled to leave his old classmates behind and apply for Avengers Academy. It was a logical choice. His mothers had been SHIELD agents and superheroes - he had the pedigree for it. And at AA, he could learn to control his powers better, to acquire the skills needed to be a classic hero, to be an adventurer - to explore and see things no one else had ever known. And yet, as much as he was excited to be going to this new school, he entered the Margaret Carter Institute paranoid and afraid, seeing the ghosts of his old bullies in the faces of all he met - even in the face of his soulmate, Dorian Gray.

He loves an ascot moment, particularly when having a casual day out in the sun. In winter, his collection of sweaters are to [i]die[/i] for - but not nearly as impressive as his tie collection. He can tie just about any knot you can think of. He tends towards more neutral colors, but every now and then will mix it up with something a little more vibrant. He polishes his shoes every week and judges people who don't take the same amount of care with their own wardrobe.

He looks down on pretty much everyone, assuming that they're too thick, stupid, and/or clueless to make the observations that he can. He doesn't trust others to take care of things, having a tendency to micromanage. Of course, Percy is exceptionally brilliant and bright, meaning that not only is he egotistical and a bit of a narcissist... he's usually [i]correct[/i]. People tend to be incredibly frustrated by him, for good reason. However, Percy is incredibly and fiercely loyal. Family - by blood and the ones he choose - mean everything to him. He would destroy the world for the ones that he cares about, a viciously positive train he inherited from his mother Novikova. Other people in the world don't really matter to him. In his mind, it's he and his against everyone else, billions of souls who just cannot matter as much. He's snarky and sarcastic, and prone to dark humor. No one would describe him as [i]nice[/i], but he can be [i]kind[/i] to those he deems worthy. He doesn't care what other people think about him. As long as his loved ones are alive and healthy, they could see him as the devil and he'd be fine with that.

He first properly noticed this power when out at dinner with his family, when he calmly ordered his food in fluent Italian, despite only speaking English and Russian. His secondary power, a variation of his sister's power, he discovered while at school in gym class. It was dodgeball day and Percy suddenly disappeared and reappeared about ten feet away, just as a ball had been about to nail him in the head. [b][color=ed1c24]General History:[/color][/b] Percy is the second child of Avengers Dominika and Maria Novikova, also former agents of SHIELD. His parents were part of the West Coast Avengers, regularly jaunting off to go save the world (or at least, the west coast of the United States). When the Avengers then transitioned from having limited and fixed rosters to becoming a global force where any Avenger could be called to respond at any moment, the family remained in San Fransisco. His parents would be taken off to work with a teleporter, whereas Percy and his sister Diana (three years his elder) would be put in daycare with the other Avengers kids. Growing up, Percy was never really interested in playing with other kids. He liked to read, devouring just about any book that he could get his hands on. The classics were always his favorite. He was [i]obsessed[/i] with Ancient Greece and its mythology, imprinting heavily on the Percy Jackson series (after all, he had the same name as the protagonist). When he wasn't reading, he would be off exploring, sometimes ending up in areas he had no business being. And when those and his other hobbies failed him, he'd watch reality TV with his moms and sister - he [i]loved[/i] to criticize the outfits. It was his favorite part. His sister's mutant power manifested first, as she displayed the ability to teleport. Percy was slightly jealous, thinking up what sort of cool power he might get. He had a little diary he carried around with him, where he'd record anything that could potentially be the sign of a power manifesting - ironically, he missed his power when it first came about. He had been wandering around in Chinatown and didn't notice that he could roughly understand everything that was being said. It was a few months later that both of Percy's abilities had manifested. His sister had already been attending Avengers Academy for a little while before Percy was enrolled. It's his first year at the institute, as well as his freshman year of high school. And while he won't admit it, he's a little bit excited. [b][color=ed1c24]Proposed Arcs:[/color][/b][list][*]I think that Percy is a bit of a hopeless romantic. I'd love for him to get into some byzantine and twisted, complicated love story - something that will cause him to cry silently, claim he's better off alone, but realize how much he misses the other person. And then, once he realizes how much he cares for this person, how far is he willing to go? And what is he willing to do? [*]I'm also a huge fan of the classic time travel plots, where your future self comes back and you have to try to change the course of your own timeline. That could be fun.

While working at SHIELD as part of the Secret Warriors team, Maria fell in love with Percy's other mother, Novikova [i]("mama")[/i]. While Novikova was fired from SHIELD not too long after, Maria continued to serve with the Secret Warriors, up through the dissolution of the team following a disastrous mission in the alternate reality of Earth-257. Since then, Maria has been an Avenger alongside her wife, Novikova. [*]While Percy can seem like an asshole, he really is quite compassionate and cares strongly about others - quality that he gets from his mom. He learned from her to be loyal and strong, and to help those who cannot help themselves - even if he might be giving some attitude while doing it. [*]Maria means [i]of the sea; bitter; rebellious; beloved[/i].[/list][center] [hr] 💞 [b]Dr. Dominika Novikova[/b] 💞 [i]"Семья для меня все."[/i][/center][list][*][url=https://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/4693270]Novikova's original CS from Agents of SHIELD[/url] [*]Percy's mother, Novikova [i]("mama")[/i] was somewhat of a prodigy, earning her PhD in Nuclear Physics before she was 22 years old. She met Percy's other mother, Maria [i]("mom")[/i], at SHIELD, as they were both part of an experimental team called the Secret Warriors. A series of questionable and somewhat destructive decisions led to Novikova being fired from SHIELD, but finding employment with the West Coast Avengers due to a close tie to Hank Pym. Novikova has been working as an Avenger with the alias [b]Quartz [/b]ever since. [*]Percy gets a lot of his idealistic, stubbornness from his mother. She nearly triggered the apocalypse to save the life of her best friend; Percy would do the same, if not more, for anyone he cares about. [*]Dominika means [i]lord[/i].[/list][center] [hr] [/center][/hider][/hider]
