Name: Nikola Tesla
Alias: Tesla
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Equipment: N/A
Skills/Abilities: Tesla doesn’t remember much from his past but he knows he has one because he has skills from it. One of the skills in the ability to hack computer systems, it doesn’t take him long to take down a firewall. Other than that he knows the ends and outs of most machines.
Powers: Tesla has the powers of electric conduction, production, and redirection. I can fully manipulate electrical energy so to speak, although he does not have complete control he does know a good bit. If he puts his mind to it he can see another person as a computer and switch of the electrical currents running through their body. He also has the reverse of that too. He can restart someone from death a lot better that so old defibulator machine. Tesla also has the ability to send boosts of energy to his comrades. The most common thing that happens when he does is they feel restored somewhat. It has also been known to rarely jumpstart a latent genetic mutation or permanently boosts ones that are already at the surface. Tesla has many powers dealing with his energy hiding beneath the surface just waiting to be learned. He also is a technopathy. This lets him communicate with technology as well as build anything he can think up, though he very rarely does.
Weaknesses: Tesla has memory flashes that leave him vulnerable. He also has a very bad reaction of water in his electric from. Spontaneously he can shift into a red electric from of which he has no control over. This for only happens if he is severely enraged.
Personality: (This will evolve within the RP)
History: Secret Diary of Howard Stark: In 1943 on January seventh the man known as Nikola Tesla supposedly died. There were only a handful of people that knew the truth. Nikola Tesla had been working on a final experiment. The experiment was on the edge of real science, I myself had even called it fringe science. It consisted of himself as the test subject and his famous wireless transmission of electricity. Nikola had said that if his funding would be cut then he would need to try one more thing. Nikola had filled a tube full of a gel like substance and hooked himself to his machines. I was there along with several others of the scientific community of our time. Some were there to watch him fail and possibly kill himself. Others were there, like me, who wanted to see him achieve greatness…even if he did it in death. He began the experiment by jumping into the tube of gel from a platform. He then gave the signal as he gave the thumbs up that let everyone know that his breathing apparatus was working so the person at the controls could throw the switch. Now the purpose of this was that the gel substance was to act as a slight resistor and conductor the body inside the tube would act as the secondary conductor. The end result of this was for Nikola to become a lightning coil in and of himself. It was his last attempt at anything in his life. The person at the controls flipped on the switches and the two coil towers near the tube fired while everyone else was behind the protection of a wall. Within seconds everyone watched in horror as the man made lightning penetrated the tube, gel, and Nikola himself. His breathing apparatus had come off with one of the intensified shocks and his body lit up like a bad cartoon. I ran over to the controls and switched everything off. The lights had gone off and later I learned that most of Manhattan had been affected as well. We all made our way to the tube with candles. From what we all could tell Nikola was not in the tube. I climbed to the top of the platform and looked in; spontaneously the lights came back on. To our surprise Nikola was not in there but electrical current still flowed through it and didn’t seem to dissipate. I ushered most of the scientists out except for me and Josef Reinstain of the Weapons Plus program A.K.A. the team responsible for Captain America and various others. Josef was upset to say the least. He said he had given him some of the formula that had made Rogers the man he had been. This was a secret I didn’t know about but we ran tests of the next several weeks. Ever vigilant until one day…Josef proposed that we abandon this and just leave. I was about to do what he said but had an idea about renewable and self sustaining energy just as Nikola had. I told Josef that I would leave after I had ran one more test. SO Josef left not knowing a thing of what transpired next; I had went over to the tube and began to reminisce. “Oh you old baffon look what you have gotten yourself into now…a closed coffin funeral and nothing to show for it.” Howard laughed and the gel reacted. Howard stood back for a second. “Well then something is going on in there.” Howard got closer wondering what was going on within the tube as nothing should have been. Suddenly the gel began to bubble inside and light flashed until the room was again dark from another power surge. This time I heard gasping so I ran to the top of the platform in disbelief. No it couldn’t be him. I told myself. Something in the universe was about to prove me wrong. The lights came back on when I was at the top and there Nikola was…standing there in the tube with now no gel in it stark naked. “Well old friend it looks like I do have something to show for it.” Nikola said. “I could hear and feel everything was going on for the past two weeks my friend. I tell you I have done it!” I then sat on the platform in utter shock. Weeks later I made secret visits to Nikola’s lab. He had wanted this to stay secret. “This si not something that can recreated Stark.” He had said. I knew this was true but he stayed on and helped me with several projects including filling in blanks about the arc reactor that Anton and I were missing. Nikola seemed not to age and showed sign of reverse aging as well as having some control over technology. Upon the creation of the internet during my last years of life Nikola was overwhelmed whit what he might be able to do. He had decided to put himself into the internet on November 1st 1990. He hadn’t shown me what he had actually been able to do until that day. He converted himself into pure energy and flew into my computer. On it as I had stood in shock read. “Thank you my old friend for believing in me that faithful day. I will never forget you as I go on this new journey!” That was the last time I ever saw Nikola Tesla ever again. On the last day of my death I would write to this man one last time and tell him to watch over my son Tony.
Hello I am Nikola Tesla I came back to this world after twenty years I have not aged a single day but rather my age has reverted to eighteen years of age. I have learned many things but most of all I have learned that humanity is a beautiful thing. I have seen Tony grow from the playboy into Ironman and then his death. A being like me only watches until he is called…no matter what happens. My time didn’t come until the world was in great peril…unfortunately the world would only get a portion of my power. My memories were taken from me and with them the knowledge I had gained as well as the control over my powers. I am sorry but this boyish body that I have left you with will only serve you till his use is up unless he is trained properly. I will have no memory of who I am previously only that my name is Tesla, I am eighteen years old, and that I can shift my form from pure electrical energy to the human one that will arrive shortly. Please take care of him and ready him for the coming days that I know for sure that he will be needed. –A message sent to J.A.R.V.I.S. on D day-
Other: Due to his connection with the stark family I would like to have a suit of armor mainly for protection or what not. I figure on a mission I can come across one and use it. It is up to you though. I didn’t want to make it something that he starts out with unless you think it is of for me too.
