[center]Already talked with the GM in private about my app. [h2][color=0076a3][b]Velrus Amsden Verdel[/b][/color][b], the Techmaturge[/b][/h2] [img]http://i.imgur.com/CEuDrpM.png[/img] [b]Name:[/b] Velrus Amsden Verdel [b]Alias:[/b] None. [b]Age:[/b] 16 [b]Personality:[/b] A surprisingly hot-headed and thunderous individual. Velrus can be considered selfish and cruel, as he is constantly using his 'gift' in order to further his own wants and desires, normally disregarding others in the process. His power makes him arrogant and complacent in the face of others, and he tends to be quite audacious when it comes to insulting people as a result. The ability to create robots to do his bidding has made him lazy. He rarely does any fighting for himself. Despite his supposedly superior intellect, Velrus is prone to making fatal flaws in his plans, which can sometimes make people doubt that he has any intelligence at all. His mistakes tend to be comical because of this. [b]Powers:[/b] Velrus is blessed with a supernatural intelligence which mainly manifests itself as mechanical intuition, and enhanced inventing. While it gives him no physical benefits, it allows him to invent new machinery with little difficulty, and gives him an edge when it comes to planning and predicting. Typically, Velrus uses his intellect to create an array of different robots, but on very rare occasions, he creates large-scale machinery, although it is a very slow and difficult process, even disregarding the fact that he needs to acquire the materials to even begin creating. [b]Weakness:[/b] Despite having such promising intellect, Velrus seems to limit himself by a large margin by simply limiting himself to robots and large machinery. It is more than likely his knowledge only extends to things mechanical. Velrus can't create something out of nothing. He needs to have supplies in order to create anything. He has no physical enhancements, and has the average strength of a 16 year old. There are a lot of things stronger than the average 16 year old. For some reason, a lot of his strongest robots have a self destruct button. He's not sure why he puts them there. He doesn't know whether or not the fridge lights stay on when the door's closed. [b]Bio:[/b] Velrus' life began as a fairly average child born into a fairly average family. He had displayed an interest in machines at a very early age, and had a tact for taking apart toys and reforming them in different ways. This proved especially true when he had reached the age of 7, where he would take apart and recreate things which were remote-controlled and turn them into various other things. This knack for creation was picked up by his parents, and it was made a cultivated and encouraged talent for Velrus to pursue. However, this also proved to be somewhat of a detriment; his parents grew to have high expectations of him now. As he grew older, he was chided for making minor mistakes. He was old enough to create actual machines - albeit minor ones. When he presented his creations and something went wrong, be it failure to activate or the invention spontaneously shutting down - he was unnecessarily criticized. It was condescending to him, and he disliked it, and in turn, he slowly became condescending to other people. In a presentation taking place a a few years ago, Velrus had created an actual robot with a makeshift blade attached to it. This time, his failure was to give it the means to attack. It had assaulted a civilian whilst the presentation took place. This earned the scorn of his parents, and the populace of the city. Velrus was immediately dangerous. Perhaps he had too much potential. At his age, he would have likely faced some form of arrest or punishment to make an example of him, had he not fled the consequences of his actions entirely. Since that day, Velrus had been living. Alone. He had found an abandoned mansion which exists on an island not too far from Jump City. In the years that Velrus had spent there, he has refurbished it to the point where it had become a laboratory of sorts. Dangerous to approach the island now, he has been able to consistently antagonize Jump City with an assortment of creations since due to his so-called 'banishment,' and plans to continue doing so for a long while.
