Although usually mute, he can hold a deep conversation with those he would prefer time with, usually people he had been around for longer than a few moments. Unfortunately, he occasionally opens himself up to those he becomes infatuated with immediately with, being destroyed by rejection. One of Riley's favorite past times is completing logic puzzles, as he finds exercising his mind fun, especially when you have to control two spirits. As such, he partially idolizes the Riddler. Despite this, his usual battle plan is to simply ambush the enemy and attack them at full force, this tends to result in failure for him. [u][b]Powers:[/b][/u] Fortunately for Riley, he has the gift of controlling two spirits from the grave to assist him in battle, Spook and Boo, whose names he constantly mistakes for each other as they appear as the same ghastly, grey entity. The duo have the power to control and move tangible objects at Riley's whim, doing as he asks; they act in such a way that is akin to poltergeists. However, they can seldom become overpowered forms of themselves, especially when the power of the supernatural is heightened, such as on full moons and Halloween. [u][b]Weakness:[/b][/u] Riley is incredibly vulnerable to anything that blocks his thought pattern; this ruins his mental connection to his bretheren spirits and as such he is rendered useless. Spook and Boo cannot perform much if there is nothing to control; they need an object to take over, as taking over a person is too much hard work and it pains them to do so. If you punch him it'll probably hurt. [u][b]Bio:[/b][/u] Riley was born in to the perfect upper-middle class family that feasted on fried chicken occasionally, his mother being an estate agent whilst his father had a simple office job as an accountant. He enjoyed things that didn't seem real, such as how things used to fall off of his shelves randomly - his parents labelled this as natural despite not giving a reason, to which he grew irritated from. Riley knew there was much more to life than, well, life. He saw death as a gateway to another world where many more people existed. After gaining friends from after-school groups that were interested in the unexplained, him and his comrades ventured to a haunted house on the outskirts of Jump city. After many attempts at a successful séance, spirits were finally contacted due to Riley leading it; they named themselves Spook and Boo. All of the other children ran out immediately, yet Riley's strong twelve year old heart was trying to handle the pressure of the fright that coursed through his veins. The two ghouls tried their best to petrify the poor kid, yet he prevailed as he saw them as two annoying people instead of unexplained beings. His acceptance of the ghosts intrigued them; no mere mortal was to stand their fright, unless of course Vito was better than the average Joe, perhaps there was something different about him. Of course, they only stand with him as assistants to his cause - whatever that may be. He himself does not know where life will lead him, to be the villain or to be the hero... Such choices fell upon inquisitive minds. Often, if you had to ask yourself that, then you were probably a villain, yet it is unknown if this bias will stick with Riley. With Spook and Boo to accompany him through his own journey to unravel himself, Riley was finally beginning to understand the complexities of life; who to save and who to leave to suffer.
