Name: Daniel Erdesh
Nickname: Bodhisattva
Age: 21
Looks:
Personality: The Bodhisattva has slightly different personality depending on if he is on anti-psychotic drugs or not, when not on Anti-Psychotic drugs the Bodhisattva rarely speaks and often spends his time in a meditative state, He seems to care for other people but tends to just creep them out instead, he bears no hatred for the people imprisoning him. When on his medication he behaves more "human" he tends to eat more but is a little sluggish, his speech is slurred. He often feels miserable when on his medication.
“Psychiatric” condition: Catatonic Schizophrenia
Actual 'Gifts': Ego disruption field: Those who gaze upon Bodhisattva experience anomalies in thought not too different from the kind experienced in schizophrenia, thoughts appear outside the mind or coming from external sources, this also somehow enables telepathy which is often troubling for those who are not used to hear voices in the head/see writing on the walls. Anti-Psychotic meditation can reduce this powers effectiveness. with concentration, He can focus on specific people to deliver them specific telepathic messages. As a weakness Daniel does not exactly control this power, and sometimes thoughts that he projects are secrets that are best kept inside the mind.
ESP: While not on anti-psychotics, the Bodhisattva is capable of gleaming information from his environment not understood by science, how this works is completely unknown but The Bodhisattva claims to be communing with the universe. As a weakness, this power is often very distracting, much of the information gained is pretty useless to most situations.
Both of the powers have the weakness of making it difficult for Daniel to relate to normal human beings, he experiences the world in a profoundly different way.
History: It started in high-school after his mother died, Daniel started getting distracted in school, he would just stare off into the distance, His friends started getting worried. He stopped hanging out with people and instead isolated himself to his room, he made it through school and started college but eventually just stopped going. A few months later he was reported missing, the police checked his house and found him nearly dead with starvation just standing on his bed. He was put into an institution with Catatonic schizophrenia...eventually the doctors noticed something odd about him and the asylum fell into chaos, Daniel isnt sure what happened. He was moved to a new facility.
