William Elcan Relman
Occupation: Student
NAME: William "Will" Elcan Relman
ALIAS: Drift
MUTATION (POWERS):
William has the ability to absorbed energy. He can turn off his absorption but it is very difficult. It’s much easier for him to leave it on. He can convert the energy that he absorbs into white strands, rods or bolts of various sizes resembling pure light. Leaving on his energy absorption can cause him to overload. Usually he will recognize this before it happens and will discharge any excess energy. He can do this by firing bolts or transferring energy to another person. The willing transference of energy to another person is harmless. To the recipient it’s almost the equivalent of drinking a pot of coffee. Unless the person is wounded. In this case the energy focuses on regenerating the damaged tissue. If he can't expel the energy in time small orbs of energy form around him and tend to have a mind of their own. There is no focused energy in these orbs so they act erratically until William can control them. These orbs do only minimal damage to the area around him but if not contained quickly they will fine the quickest route away from William, inflicting mischief on anything they encounter.
Will has recently learned that he can fly, however the effect his body takes on to allow this leaves him looking somewhat like a lightening bug, his legs become bathed in white energy and he is not at all very good at it.
AGE: 20
DESCRIPTION OF BODY (BUILD, HEIGHT, UNIQUE FEATURES, ETC.): 5'10" with charcoal gray skin. His skin changes shades depending on the amount of energy his body has stored. When he is weak his skin will look pale gray or white. His clothes have a tendency to match his skin tone. Usually dark and sleek.
HAIR COLOR AND STYLE: Originally Will's hair was black and normal but lately it has taken a turn to sort of mimic his brother Jayn's hair. On occasion it becomes white like the energy he manipulates and is somewhat flickery with a mind of it's own.
EYE COLOR: Wholly black, also absorb energy like his hair.
RELATIVES: Younger brother Jayn and little sister Lyra, parents deceased.
ETHNICITY: British (Welsh mother and Scottish father)
HISTORY: William and his younger siblings, Jayn and Lyra, grew up in a comfy little countryside home, with their parents. They were all three kept hidden, so the others in the nearby village wouldn't see them. A community that was racist against mutants, as the most of the world was and still is. They were home-schooled by their parents. But, only the first few years for Lyra where like that. When Will was 14, the house burned down, killing the parents. After that, he and Jayn took care of Lyra. They where forced to travel to a larger city, squatting an abandoned building. Since Jayn was the only one who could appear mostly normal, it was his job to obtain food and clothing for the three. Mostly through theft.
Since William was the oldest, he felt responsible for his younger siblings and did his best to take care of them.
ANY SERIOUS PHYSICAL OR MENTAL CONDITIONS: The only time he exhibits any mental quirks is when he needs to expel a bit of energy. This usually makes him a little hyper.
HOBBIES: Reading, and like everyone else practicing his powers. William is excellent at sharpshooting with his energy bolts.
PERSONALITY: Silent, reserved and very serious. He can be curious at times, but even then mainly tends to watch things happen from a distance, unless his friends are in danger. He is usually calm and concentrated, doesn't easily lose control.
