LUCAS ALEXANDER

<img:http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11358122/RP/Lucas.jpg>

User Name: [AccountUnavaili able]

Character name: Lucas Alexander

Mutant Name: Ferro

Abilities/powers:

Lucas has the ability to control and manipulate electromagnetic fields. In some cases he can generate them, though at great effort at his current power level (meaning he'd become disoriented and pass out if he created one).

The simplest of his powers is the ability to control and manipulate ferromagnetic materials (eg Iron, Nickel, Cobalt, Gadolinium, Dysprosium and alloys such as Steel that contain ferromagnetic metals including Adamantium) As this is the strongest magnetic force.

His skin can take on the properties of the metal he touches (Only one at a time) (also the area of skin taking on the properties will increase over time, I.e. to begin with only his arm will take on the properties if touching with hands etc.)

A few interesting titbits about his powers:

- He always knows which way is magnetic North.
- Magnets will occasionally stick to him.
- If he were to sit on a completely metal spinning chair, the chair would continuously spin.

Sex: Male

Age: 18

Birthday November 19th

General appearance: Lucas has Medium length, thick, light chestnut brown hair, pushed back behind his ears. His face is straight edged and hard and attractive, with a slightly crooked nose after being broken. He has bluey grey eyes that show happiness and a twinkle of creativity, but sadness and remorse that did not belong to him. He stands at 5"11, with a slim, slightly muscular build of someone who looks after himself. His voice is soft, caring, but can sometimes be mixed with the harshness of an old man. His build is athletic, of someone who has undergone rigorous physical training,. His attire consists of simple block coloured V neck or polar neck shirts, tight fitting to his body. He wears tight fitting jeans unless exercising, none of his cloths are designer, he believes in simple attire, no names.

Additional Appearance: 'Veins' of a thin bio metallic substance running from his fingertips up his arm that only appear when using his powers.

Personality: Mild tempered individual, not one to anger quickly, however on the occasion this does happen he has no fear of using his powers to put people in their place. He enjoys having fun in the company of others, but when left alone he is overcome by a strange emptiness, sorrow that is not his. First impressions are (to his knowledge) mixed, they can be good, but when faced with an obvious physical mutation he will loose himself in his curiosity. Kind to his friends and protective, he becomes fascinated with the powers of others, and as a keen scientist, looks for the cause in their mutation, and the workings of it. An avid reader, he can usually be found in his room with a book. He can be hostile however to humans, and finds it shocking that someone would be ashamed of their powers.

Hobbies Reading, Fencing, Writing, Running, practising his powers, gazing up at the stars, learning new things.

Special Skills: Has some hand to hand combat skills, as well as an advanced capability of fencing and genius level intellect.

Place of birth: Washington, D.C.

Weapon(s) of choice: Three small solid metal spheres each 25mm in diameter, one made of Iron, one made of Nickel, the other made of Gadolinium.

Medical information: Classified

Brief History: Lucas was brought into this world through the cloning process. With a sample of Magneto's DNA injected into an egg and grown in an artificial womb, previous experiments proved unsuccessful due to the instability of Erik Lehnsherr's DNA, and advanced ageing of cells shown in the clones. Lucas was created by the combination of Raven Darkhölme's DNA and Erik Lehnsherr's DNA (Mystique's DNA stabilising magneto's and allowing Lucas to be created. He was brought up to be the governments own personal soldier, attending classes in combat training and educating his advanced mind. However, before he was given a chance to train his powers, he joined another subject in their escape, of the facility, and the program was shut down. After some time on the run, he found his was to Xaviers school for gifted youngsters.

Relatives: DNA donors: 'Father' Erik Lehnsherr, 'Mother' Raven Darkhölme.

X-Men Characters

2011-06-02 [Duredhel]: Ok... well... seems ok. Nothing too impressive or interesting but it's decent. The powers are stepping a lot into Magneto's... so I don't know about that, we won't have Magneto show up in the RP but I see it drawing a lot of flak from other players. Naturally secreted adamantium seems a bit like a cop up, and it doesn't fit thematically with magnetic powers as one might think, it's a bit jarring. Last one, this is the third character with grey/silver eyes we've gotten today >,< seriously, what's with kids and that? If everyone has grey/silver eyes, it's not really uncommon or special anymore, is it? Anyhow, yeah, sufficient, but it could be a lot better.

The silver eyes and the fact he's adopted, too, make me think you may want him related to Magneto or Quicksilver... if he is, though no one will know, it still needs to say so in the char sheet. (Or at the least, you need to tell the GM)

2011-06-02 [Figgy]: There's also three other characters with grey/silver eyes >.>

2011-06-02 [Duredhel]: Btw mate, the character CAN go in as is, at least on my part. The stuff I'm saying are suggestions, while jarring, none of those things are a dealbreaker.

2011-06-02 [AccountUnavaili able]: Silver eyes I thought for the Adamantium, but if that's going out then that can easily be changed, I was thinking maybe a clone of magneto left to grow naturally and that's why he was adopted by two professors? But I thought it may be a bit much.

2011-06-02 [Duredhel]: Nah, mate, we have a clone already so there's a precedent. And that's good, ideas like that aren't bad, you just need to let the GM at least know so she can plot accordingly.

2011-06-02 [AccountUnavaili able]: Alright, maybe not a clone of magneto, how about having his powers put into a child? I like the idea of him being an experiment... :)

2011-06-02 [Duredhel]: You'd have to figure out HOW this was done, tho. A clone is easier because you just need DNA and a surrogate. The easiest way to put his powers into a child would be a clone XD. Btw, Magneto DOES have blue-grey eyes, so you could change the eye color to that.

2011-06-02 [AccountUnavaili able]: Hmm, I'm sure I can adapt the history a bit, For example, isolating the X gene and inserting it into another human or mutant :P Will change it accordingly and see what you think? :)

2011-06-02 [Duredhel]: Aye. I just make suggestions tho, it's Figgs' decision in the end.

2011-06-03 [AccountUnavaili able]: Ok, changed... What do you think??

2011-06-03 [Duredhel]: Erm... ok... seriously don't know. He's magneto with regeneration and adamantium... I say go read "What not to do with Powers." Go simpler, not more complicated. I liked the Magneto clone idea WAY better.

2011-06-04 [AccountUnavaili able]: Ok, Not sure what to do now, it's either this idea, or the clone idea (difficult as there is already a clone) so... any suggestions?

2011-06-04 [Figgy]: The fact that there is already a clone makes the clone idea more feasible. You could PM [Flisky] and see if you character could have been created by the same people and lab that Addy was cloned in.

2011-06-05 [AccountUnavaili able]: Hopefully, that should be good?

2011-06-06 [Duredhel]: Ok, I think it's good. I'd make one change tho, streamline the powers, you have too much crap in there. My recommendation would be to simply go;

Powers - The ability to control and manipulate ferromagnetic materials (eg Iron, Nickel, Cobalt, Gadolinium, Dysprosium and alloys such as Steel that contain ferromagnetic metals) Can also sense the presence of these metals. His skin can take on the properties of the metal he touches (Only one at a time) (also the area of skin taking on the properties will increase over time, I.e. to begin with only his arm will take on the properties if touching with hands etc.)

And leave it at that. Levitation is understood since he can probably make himself float once he's adopted the characteristics of a metal by using his powers. High level intellect, and ability to move large amounts of metals.. yeah.. You'll learn soon enough you can say your character is smart or attractive, but if it's not shown through RPing and other characters don't recognize him as such, you just end up looking silly. The best thing to do is to leave that out of the sheet and if you want your character to be smart, play him smart.

Moving metals, I think is covered by his first power. Other than that, it looks good.

2011-06-06 [AccountUnavaili able]: Excellent, changes completed.

2011-06-06 [Figgy]: Aaaaand, everything's set :) Your character is up at X-Men Characters and you may begin posting at X-Men Main Gates.

2011-06-06 [Lepellier]: Just something I'd like to ask...How long does it take before his entire body takes on the metallic composition if he's holding it?

2011-06-06 [AccountUnavaili able]: There's a small second delay as his cells register the metal, and a further few seconds as the data is passed through his cells, producing a 'spreading' effect as the metal travels up his arm.

2011-06-06 [Lepellier]: So, the duration of the change from normal flesh to metal is like what? 10 seconds for his whole body? Sorry, not nit-picking, just generally interested.

2011-06-06 [AccountUnavaili able]: For his whole body, I would say 5 - 10 seconds, depending on the complexity of the metal. I.e. 'Pure' metal such as Iron would take less time than steel, an alloy. Although maybe I'm making it more complicated than it should be for Ferro :P

2011-06-06 [Lepellier]: lol, seems pretty legit to me. I was wondering if it was going to be like it took him like 2 seconds to completely change or a whole minute.

2011-06-06 [AccountUnavaili able]: Hmm, I think 2 seconds would be unrealistic, and a minute is just too long :P Say an explosion occurred, it would be very unpleasant to have half his body covered in metal whilst the other half was blown off before changing.

2011-06-06 [Lepellier]: In case of explosion, wouldn't he melt, potentially? But yeah, 10-15 seconds seems logical to me. :D

2011-06-06 [AccountUnavaili able]: Depending on the metal and the heat from the explosion, yes the metal would melt and he'd find himself in a Fantastic four (movie) Doctor Doom type situation :P

2011-06-26 [XxTsomexX]: Him and Endelyn should get along :) Seeing as her mutant powers also have to do with metal.

2011-06-26 [AccountUnavaili able]: Defiantly, he would be very intrigued at the way in which her powers work. Not only that but he is also quite old fashioned (having some genetic memories and personality instilled) :)

2011-06-26 [XxTsomexX]: Awesooooome!! :D

2011-06-26 [Duredhel]: Its hysterical how you keep editing to add how good looking and amazingly smart and charming he is. Seriously, I think I commented on doing that a while back XD

2011-06-26 [AccountUnavaili able]: It's just a case of, every time I post his personality changes a little to a way I'm more comfortable with playing (Another character I've been playing for a year now), just don't want people checking this bio and thinking "Wait a minute...". :P

2011-06-26 [AccountUnavaili able]: I've taken out the bit I've added to his personality about being charming, but left the bit in about his curiosity as that's an important part of his character? And then I can just play him charming when he can be?

2011-06-27 [Duredhel]: ... crap.. I accidentally deleted my reply to that XD. I'll post it back up in a bit.

2011-06-27 [AccountUnavaili able]: Makes sense I suppose, alright I'll try to keep my hands off the edit button on this page ^_^

Lol, alright xD

2012-01-02 [Flisky]: Haha. I've been reading some X-men stuff and realized that Lucas is technically Addy's uncle. XD

2012-08-28 [AccountUnavaili able]: O_o that'd be an interesting plot twist...

2012-09-06 [AccountUnavaili able]: Ba-Ba-Ba-Ba Baaaa Ba Ba Ba!

2012-09-06 [Figgy]: Are you like a retarded sheep?

Sorry >_>
Do you, by any chance, want to celebrate Lucas' birthday on this in-game day? I imagine the day before would've been too hectic for anyone to do anything for him.

2012-09-06 [AccountUnavaili able]: Was aiming for a levelling up sound effect from a nintendo game...

And I'm not sure how he'd want to celebrate, he'll never have had one before, do you mean change his birthday to the 20th or?

2012-09-06 [Figgy]: Oh, no, not change it, just have the students celebrate it or something. Like, he could mention in passing that his birthday was the day before and that he's never celebrated one, and I'm sure someone would offer to throw him a party. I mean, it's up to you, really.

2012-09-06 [AccountUnavaili able]: Sure, I'll have him mention it at some point, more than likely he'll not remember right away.

2012-09-06 [Figgy]: That's fine :3

2012-11-14 [Lepellier]: I now want to buy him an all metal spinning chair just for the lulz.

2012-11-14 [AccountUnavaili able]: I only put all metal otherwise every time he tried to do work, he'd spin around, might make things difficult :P

2012-11-14 [Lepellier]: I'm sure he could get a fully plastic work chair. But it would be way too funny to just give him a metal one and see hat happens.

2012-12-16 [Duredhel]: Was gonna draw Lucas but I didn't know what he was wearing 8>

2012-12-16 [AccountUnavaili able]: Ah, he's wearing his armour, think a dulled grey fantastic four suit with symmetrical plates of metal. Don't think he's wearing his helmet right now. One of his sleeves covers his stub, his scrap arm is sort of bonded to the suit magnetically.

2012-12-16 [Duredhel]: ...... *facepalm*

Check which RP we're on, mate.

2012-12-16 [AccountUnavaili able]: -headdesk- Sorry, I've been living off caffeine pills for the past week, assignments and stuff so I'm pretty flaky right now.

Ok, he's wearing a fitted white shirt, jeans and red converse.

Also a question, what do we do if we want our characters to get a haircut or something? Do we rp or the next in game day say he got a haircut?

2012-12-16 [Duredhel]: Yep, that works. It might take a little bit to get an updated profile pic, but he will get one
