[b]Character Reimagined:[/b] Aquaman

[b]Secret ID:[/b] Arthur Curry Jr.

[b]Age:[/b] 30

[b][u]Powers[/u][/b]
[b]Telepathy:[/b] He can summon/communicate with aquatic animals. With enough concentration he can also do the same with lifeforms evolved from the sea, though it is considerably weaker.
[b]Superhuman Strength:[/b] His strength derives from the fact that his body is strong enough for his lungs to work properly even at the bottom of the sea where the pressure is at its greatest.
[b]Superhuman Durability:[/b] Similar to his strength, Aquaman can withstand a great deal of attacks from other superhumans or even machine gun fire.
[b]Aquatic Adaptation:[/b] Aquaman can survive at any depth in the ocean, swimming and fighting at the same superhuman level as any superhuman on land, though Aquaman is notable for being an even stronger combatant while underwater.
[b]Hard Water Constructs:[/b] Aquaman possesses a pair of Atlantean gauntlets that use electrical currents to manipulate water into "solid" constructs such as melee weapons or shields.

[b]Weaknesses:[/b] Aquaman's main weakness is that much of his ability is derived from the Sea. While he can still be formidable on the land, the Sea is where he is at his strongest. Even his water constructs are reliant on the gauntlets as an outside force, without them Aquaman is effectively unarmed.

[b]Personality:[/b] Most of his kind tend to have a stubborn pride for being born of Atlantis. They are Atlanteans first above anything else. Arthur on the other hand, is the polar opposite. He is Human first and Atlantean second. Having never even seen Atlantis before, Arthur knows very little of its culture and customs. Instead, he was raised as a human and he often looks to his firefighter father for inspiration or even occasional guidance. As such, Arthur prefers to emulate his father's acts of selfless heroism over his mother's loyalty as a soldier. This often means he prioritizes saving lives over defeating his enemies. That only really applies to Aquaman, though. As for Arthur Curry the person, he respects both his parents more than anyone else and will often think back to the things they taught him in an attempt to apply those wisdoms to his every day life, both as Arthur and as Aquaman. The long and short of it is that he tries every day to emulate his father's selflessness and his mother's loyalty.

[b]Appearance:[/b] WIP

[b]BRIEF Bio:[/b] Born to an Atlantean mother and human father, Arthur Curry Jr. grew up never being told of Atlantis or his mother's true heritage. According to his parents, they felt that he would have been better off having a normal human childhood. But when his Atlantean abilities started growing, they couldn't keep the secret any longer. Arthur's mother finally told him her story about Atlantis and the inner civil war that forced her to abandon home and live on the surface. The only things she brought with her was a pair of gauntlets designed to give the wearer the ability to manipulate water into constructs. As it turns out, she was an Atlantean soldier, one of the few who were female in fact, as Atlantis was largely male dominated. She taught Arthur how to use the gauntlets for himself and even shared with him her Atlantean training and fighting skills. Unlike his mother, Arthur had a desire to use his skills and abilities to help mankind. Rather than hide them, he instead used them to help the innocent and fight against the forces of evil as Aquaman. This perhaps proved to be a mistake, as before long Aquaman's activities would get the attention of his mother's oldest and most hated enemy.

[b]Notes:[/b] Obviously it's not finished yet. Could use some suggestions like... how old should he be? Or what kind of appearance should I go for?
