Name: Gideon McNeal
Age: 22
Alias: The Super Name you go by
Tier: 4(?, maybe 3.5?)
Years Spent in LHA: 2
Appearance:
Gideon prefers to cover nearly his entire body due to his most notable physical trait, bioluminescent blood. This blood is luminescent enough to be able to see a dim yellow glow traced over his veins. Other than that, he has pale skin, stands at an even 6’ (~1.83m) and weighs 125lb (~56.7kg), and dark brown hair.
Personality: Gideon enjoys conversation, and his general knowledge of a variety of topics support this, and he could easily talk for hours depending on how interested he is in the topic at hand, he however is slow to talk about things of a personal nature. He shares little about his past and rarely asks about others besides the general pleasantries.
Gideon is an incredibly focused individual, and often finds a solution to many problems in his path though this often comes detrimental as any problem proven difficult can boarder on obsessive for him and usually forgoes other things to some extent such as sleeping or eating.
While he refutes being fazed by criticism or for lacking progress on anything, he is rather insecure and significant amounts of stress simply leads to him not thinking. When this happens, he simply acts on instinct for an amount of time before ‘snapping out’ of it.
Skills: A passive interest in learning a little about various things means he has some degree of knowledge of a variety of topics. While this tends to be of a trivial nature, some information he learned is actually useful however.
Basic medical care- Knows enough to do things like applying pressure and elevating wounds to slow blood loss
Logical- Causes always leads to effects, it’s just a matter of knowing what causes lead to what effects
Hobbies: Debating, Google-ing various subjects as it comes to mind, Armored Warfare in The Great War and WW2
Weapons: Not really, although anything in your hand can constitute a weapon if you know and are capable of doing damage with it.
Equipment: None
Fighting Style: Prefers sheer force over dexterity and agility.
Strength: Variable (See ability) but generally has the strength of up to 50 men
Endurance: Far more resilient to injury than most others, can withstand about 5 times the force of other humans before the skin is pierced or the bone breaks. If an injury is sustained, it can be healed rapidly (bones can fully reform in days, tissue reforms in hours, etc.) but only during extended periods of rest (the majority of energy expended in combat goes to the muscles and thus lives little for cellular regeneration and other functions). If enough trauma is caused, he will fall unconscious and eventually die if the opportunity to recover is not provided. Requires less sustenance and sleep than others and has gone nearly a week without sleep (to minimal negative effect) and regularly fasts for a day or two.
Willpower: Will almost never stop at accomplishing at any task before him, however he is mentally unstable to some degree and simply stop making conscious decisions if stressed enough. If this were to happen, Gideon will still attempt to accomplish his goal if possible, but may result in unwanted consequences due to accomplishing the goal taking absolute priority over anything else.
Speed: Is capable of sprinting about twice as fast as the average human due to being able to exert a disproportionate amount of force compared to body mass.
Reaction Speed: Slightly above a normal human’s speed.
Name of Ability: Rìastrad (Translates roughly to ‘Warp Spasm’)
Class: Physical
Character Theme: Incapacitation of hostiles through blunt force. No need for maneuvers or calculating tactics, just a fist to a face.
Ability Capabilities: Stress triggers a surge of various elements and chemicals that serve to enhance the strength similar to having a surge of adrenaline. While undergoing a Rìastrad, Gideons appearance changes slightly with the body distorting slightly and most notably with his blood glowing a brighter shade. The brighter his blood illuminates the stronger he becomes and coincidentally can serve as an indicator to his current state. At rest, the light emits at 6 lumens (about half light output of a candle and has been observed to emit up to 60 lumens and is theoretically capable of getting even brighter for an even greater increase to strength.
In addition, Gideon exhibits an unusually tough body structure. Close examination under a microscope shows a different cellular structure than other humans but, alone, is not enough to explain the structural integrity. While not capable of extraordinary regeneration in combat, he is capable of generating another mix of biological chemicals and compounds that promote bone density and cellular division among other miraculous properties and leads to vastly decreased time to recover from injuries sustained. Blood transfusions have not yet been able to show a similar affect in other individuals (In fact it seems to negatively impact the recovery of tested individuals) and so far only seems to work in Gideon’s body exclusively
Qualities of Ability: Simply put, he gains a disproportionate amount of force relative to his body mass. While one would think that an increase in strength would lead to an increase of muscular tissue or at the very least mass of some kind, that is not the case for Gideon.
Strengths of Ability: Like stated above, can punch really, really hard. Can take hard hits. Can regenerate outside of combat.
Weaknesses of Ability: Due to the variable strength, Gideon on occasion may use excessive force, or perhaps not enough. While repeated training and combat encounters has allowed him to develop a sort of sense for this, it is not refined enough for complete accuracy. While using not enough force can be easily resolved by getting angrier, for example, there have been several incidents where excessive force has caused what most describe as unnecessary collateral damage.
Limitations of Ability: Increased strength increases proportionately with stress, there are limits to how livid a sane individual can get. Due to his shaky mental stability, it is probable at some point he may ‘snap’ and reach higher levels of strength at the cost of acting more bestial, or according to instincts, than to morals.
Biograph: Instead of a History You Will have 3 Events that were presented in the News. Something that defines their heroics.
