tobiax — Roleplayer Guild

Appearance:
Name: Aventur Lindworm
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Species: Human
Semblance:
Capacity Shell- Aven's body is constantly collecting stray electrons. As a result, he quickly acquires a significant nimbus of electricity surrounding his body and Aura. By causing his Aura to thinly flare and touch objects within his gathered electricity, he can cause a discharge of electricity for as long as he remains in contact with the object or individual. However, physical contact with Aven also triggers a significant discharge. Because of this, he is at least constantly staticy, unless in water, which harmlessly dissipates his electricity. If confronted with opposing electricity, he can utilize his Aura to convert it into his own electrical field, but only if it has less voltage than he currently holds, and excessive amperage will damage his Aura. Confronting his own electrical field with an electrical field with more voltage nullifies his own field's defensive capabilities, causing his Arua to take a direct hit. Aven- and others who are aware- has-/have- the ability to check his charge by the state of his hair. By default, unless he has no charge, his Semblance causes his hair to appear spiky (as pictured above). Additionally, his hair sports a streak down the middle (not shown) which becomes more bright green as he accrues charge.
Sexual Orientation: Hetero [As far as he knows]
Team: VNLA
Where Are They From: Mantle
Weapon:
Personality:
At first glance, Aven comes off as stuck up, obnoxious, and distant. He seems to ignore others, and mildly insult them frequently. However, this in only because he doesn't want hurt anyone more later on. This leads him to have spent much of his prior personal time alone. Despite this, he actually craves intimacy, but doesn't feel he's worth it, since he feels he'll only end up hurting them in one way or another. This causes an unfortunate cycle of distancing and isolation, which leads to an almost manic need for personal contact, which inevitably has gone poorly, only reinforcing the cycle.
Bio:
Aven was born to a (for what it's worth) Noble family in the dying city of Mantle. Known for their work in carving and map-making, the Lindworm family was put out of business by the manufacture of Scrolls, and thus fell from the good graces they once held.
	Early in his life, he, his brother Morgan, and his parents moved to Atlas propper, in hopes of finding better opportunities and warmth. Plus, not having to live in the remains of a Dust mining operation would be nice. Even before the move, his brother Morgan seemed to get the (no pun intended) lime light. It didn't help that he also got all the girls while Aven could barely get close to anyone- literally. There were times where he felt resentment towards his brother in his youth, but that faded into a kind of vague ambivalence, and they were never really close, despite being twins. As such, when his brother left for 'bigger and better things', he never questioned it, and to this day doesn't know where he is, or what he's doing, especially after heading to Atlas Academy himself. It always seemed like they were meeting at a crossroads anyway, always just passing by en route for the same things, or on the way to a totally different goal as well.
	As he reached his teen years, he found what little solace he could in music- one of the few ways he could feel he was communicating with others, despite rarely being able to see them. He admired their passion, but was rarely able to practice any arts himself, as he would often cause disturbances in the tools he would use, with most instruments unable to withstand the barrage of electrons, and paper drifting aimlessly about. He even had a canvas catch fire one time. But he doesn't like to talk about it.
Likes:
Pools, Rubber handles, Smooth surfaces, Warm beds, Good food, Music, Flutists, Pianists, and Violinists,
Dislikes:
Isolation, Crowds, Microfiber cloth, Having to lie/push people away, Salt Water, Having to carry sensitive objects/Dust, Being too close to flammable things,
Strengths:
Due to the nature of his Semblance, a sneak attack at close range or with a tether weapon would result in the attacker being shocked. This also makes him difficult to restrain. He even retains his field in sleep.

Aven is willing to push himself to the limits to get something done, even if he gets hurt. As such, he will ignore personal pain.

Aven can manage an almost perfect defense from attacks and damage from electric Dust and attacks.

Due to his rather strange personal defense mechanism, Aven is practiced in insulting foes as well, causing them to act irrationally, or potentially attack him in a way it would be wise not to. Most of the time this makes him feel bad though.

Weaknesses:
Capacity Shield would ignite Dust in any non-insulated container, so he can only carry completely sealed containers, rendering them useless for combat use or propellant.

The majority of his offensive capability requires, at least in part, a line of direct contact. As such, his range suffers, unless he is able to collect electrons for a long period of time, which would leave him mentally unfit to fight. As such, he functions best at medium range in combat.

In combat, he would be unable to directly assist teammates while being able to fight while able to use his Semblance immediately afterwards, so helping with a climb or retreat is difficult for him.

Being coated or partially submerged in water neutralizes his ability to collect electrons.

He can't choose when his semblance is active.

Aven often values himself less than others, and would allow himself to get hurt more than was tactically sound to help others.

Due to the constant electrical field surrounding him, Aven can rarely feel, smell, taste, or hear with complete clarity. Certain optical-illusions or magnetic or thermal aberrations in light may be interrupted as well. With too much charge, he may be unable to see.
