Introduction

xxxxxOverview of your character goes here.

Description

xxxxxLincoln is a tall, muscular man with a dark brown eyes, long, dirty blonde hair and a light complexion. He has a ruggedly handsome complexion and cursed and/or blessed with an expressive face - he's rather terrible at hiding how he feels with his facial expressions.

He's broad shouldered and athletic, each muscle pushed to their limits and having the appearance to prove it. He has scars here and there from training and from his vigilante work.

He often prefers dark clothing, but typically wears a black and yellow biker jacket that seems to have some significance to him.

Reputation

xxxxxWhat (if anything) might others have heard about your character? It's okay if this is 'nothing'. This can also be specific to their faction (maybe they're class clown at their school!) or specific to a niche field (maybe you'd have heard of them if you know a lot about particle physics or cross country skiing, but not otherwise!)

History

xxxxxLincoln Idaho is the son of Marie and David Idaho in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. His father David was an avid motorcyclist and mechanic, operating his own repair shop as a way to bring in money. However, David was involved in a terrible, fatal motorcycle accident when Lincoln was a child. It's scarred him for life...and left Marie to take care of the young boy by herself. His mother worked with deaf children and after David's death, became a translator (for ASL) and often translated for events to help pay the bills.

While kindhearted, Lincoln often proved too much so. He could never stand bullies and often reacted with protective violence towards individuals who dared try to harm another. He was looked up to by other children his age and often had a popularity to him. Yet...when told he had to stop the violence - protective as it may be - from his mother, Lincoln put his efforts into other pursuits...most notably, music. Drumming came naturally to him, a way to get out anger and violent tendencies. What's more, he was quite good at it.

And then...when Lincoln endured puberty, his X-gene had awakened. Electricity sparked between his fingertips. His entire neighborhood lost power...and he glowed with a powerful energy. He could control electricity. He could absorb electrical sources for greater power. His mother had found out and immediately attempted to hide him. Keep him out of trouble...keep him from using his abilities.

But alas, Lincoln was quite willing to practice his abilities in secret. Worse still, his mother didn't know how to raise a mutant child who could short out the house by touching an outlet. She didn't have the money to try and search for a special place that could take him. So she put her faith where she felt she was forced to: the Canadian government. A representative came, promising to take him far away where he can learn to live with his abilities, control them, and be reintroduced to society. After a tearful goodbye and a promise to reunite, Lincoln was sent away.

But they had no intention of rehabilitating Lincoln. They wanted the next Weapon...and they found one. They sent him right into the open arms of the Weapon Plus program. Every day was torture. Physical. Mental. Emotional. They wanted another soldier. They trained him relentlessly, tortured him to bring out an evolutionary response to heighten his abilities..toyed with his memories to make him loyal.

All to make him Weapon XI.

And year by year, it became worse. They taught him how to fight. How to break. Wound. How to kill in equal measure. They kept him in large water sources in a cage to train his body to yield to them, short-circuiting him over and over again, but not so much to kill him.

They thought they finally created a perfect weapon. But instead...they created yet another enemy. He remembered. He remembered his mother. His home. His origins. His promise to see her again. He saw the other mutants they had as part of this Project...and knew enough was enough.

These scientists, these operatives...they always make a mistake. Get too complacent. He had watched. He had waited for his time to strike. Waited for one of them to forget to flip a switch, forget to isolate him. Forget.

/Forget/. Finally...two of the guards thought they were dangerous. They didn't put the 'mutie' back in the water. He muffled something against the cold metal that bound him. They ungagged him and prepared for transit, so they can put him back in the chair. But these were fools, not skilled fighters. Grunts. As soon as they let him out and beat him down with a nightstick, Lincoln quickly rose to his feet and dispatched of both of them - much to his own chagrin, still breathing. Better than they deserved.

It was his /chance!/.

This facility had many guards, but more than that, there were many mutants here who could be helped. He took keycards from both guards and he started running. As he ran, he drew power from the electrical sources in this place, his eyes practically glowing with power as he defeated other guards, but he wasn't fast enough to stop bullets. "Run! Go!" He told mutants as he released them from their containment cells.

Out of thirty...he was able to save maybe fifteen. Better than none. Better than nothing. He fled. He told the mutants to keep running and he made their exit secure with powerful electric blasts.

Then he ran.

He immediately fled for home, finding and stealing clothes to fit him, and he hoped to find his mother...only to find his home burned to the ground.

No loose ends.

His mother was buried some years ago. And on her grave, instead of swearing revenge against the Weapon Plus program, he instead swore to her that he would not be what they tried to make him be. That he'll find his answers one way or another. That he'll use his abilities to help people...what he always wished to do to begin with.

The world had to change. This couldn't'...this wasn't right. Instead of hatred for humanity, Lincoln wanted to bring peace. So...he started using his powers to help people, in accordance to his vow to his mother.

and so it is to this day that a vigilante was born.

But he had to make money. He had to be able to live. A job was necessary where people didn't ask questions. Where people didn't snoop too much. He managed to get work as a bike courier, delivering packages and mail. It was good work, kept him under the radar. Helped teach him control by not electrocuting the bike.

Powers

xxxxxLincoln is an omega-level mutant with the ability to control electricity. He can bodily generate energy which he could release or harness for a number of effects. His body is augmented and his anatomy changed. His muscular fuels his powers via near-microscopic rhythmic muscle contractions that normally regulate body temperature moving at incredible speeds, creating a series of rapid microscopic movement that generates electricity en masse. His body naturally generates electricity at a rate of about 10,000 volts per minute, though he possesses the ability to absorb far, far more energy via outside sources, such as absorbing electricity through power generators or electrical lines to billions of volts. His ability to control electricity has given him numerous capabilities from small to large effect.

- Electric Blasts: The simplest manifestation of Lincoln's abilities is the emission of a lightning-like electric arc from his hands, which could travel via rapidly vibrating air molecules or other conducting mediums, such as water or metal. This discharged travelled at the speed of lightning (about 150,000 feet per second). The maximum effective range of his bolts is about 1000 feet before they begin to lose their momentum, and thus, their force. At their strongest, these bolts record around 100,000 volts. At their lowest, roughly 10,000 volts, it has the stunning power of a civilian-grade tazer.

- Lightning Bolt: Lincoln's abilities with electricity are so great he can manipulate ambient electricity in the air. By creating an electrical storm in the air, he can call down lightning bolts upon his enemies.

- Electrical Detection: Lincoln's ability with electrokinesis also granted him a certain extrasensory perception, letting him "feel" the course of electricity through the circuitry of any electrically powered device for possible absorption. He can even use it to detect human beings, since the body is a natural bioelectric accumulator.

- Electricity Immunity: Lincoln is immune to the effects of electricity, including the effects of his own abilities. He cannot be harmed by electrocution.

Skills

xxxxxMusician - A capable drummer, Lincoln liked playing the instrument in his early youth. He could still take care of it now.

Combat - A deadly combatant trained by Weapon Plus, Lincoln is well-trained in CQC combat. Fast, deadly, and powerful, Lincoln prefers to use his powers to aid in his combat capability, namely his strength. He uses a mixture of Krav Maga, Judo, Aikido, Muay Thai, and Boxing.

Firearms - Lincoln is deadly with a gun, even though he dislikes them. He prefers handguns.

Multilingual - Lincoln is fluent in English, French, and ASL.

Leadership - Despite his willingness to prefer silence, Lincoln is actually a phenomenal leader. He's charming and has a knack for placing people where they can be best used in a situation. He knows how to craft a plan and he's passionate about what he believes in. He's approachable, reliable, easy to talk to, and tends to always have a good word to say about someone.
