Finished it!
Anyone who wants to play John can. It'd be kinda cool to have a brother in-RP, but otherwise, I'll just NPC him. For a reference on John, check out Thunderbird from The Gifted.
Name: James Proud
Age: 17
Clone of: Warpath (James Proudstar)
Nickname: Buck - He's strong, fast, and sensitive, but relatively peaceful like a young deer.
Supernatural Condition - The nature of his abilities, considering they are genetic, are actually not too far fetched to think about. Buck is very much humanlike, but at an insanely higher level of physical capability. That said, his powers grow in potency as he physically ages, meaning the older he gets, the stronger he becomes.
Buck's strong enough to lift cars over his shoulders and toss them a good fifteen feet. It is unknown what his current strength limits are, but it is likely around four tons.
He is, in turn, durable enough to take that kind of punishment and continue to operate. He's effectively almost immune to blunt force, but sharp objects, chemical toxins, and such are all things that he'd be vulnerable to.
Fast enough to outrun nearly all of those same cars, able to cap out the same running speeds as a Pronghorn antelope (around 61 miles per hour). In tandem, he also posesses incredible agility and reflexes, what most people train their lives for, is innate for him.
His most potent abilities at his young age, are his superhuman senses. Buck's senses of hearing and sight supersede humans, animals, and even some forms of technology. He can hear clearly through walls that aren't specifically sound proofed. He can see for miles ahead with great clarity, and keep that clarity even in dark places, though he doesn't possess night-vision. He can also tune his sensitivities, such as being able to hear something as soft as a baby's heartbeat from across the room. He also has very enhanced senses of touch and smell.
All that mentioned, his powers are passive, in the sense that they don't turn off. This means that he can hear nearly anything all of the time, even when he doesn't want to. This also means that unexpectedly loud sounds or blinding flashes can overload his senses. What is more, he is still learning to control his growing strength, and he's prone to accidentally break things. Plus, considering that he is still within his teenage years, he can get a tad aggressive. Combining that with his already animalistic nature, can be a recipe for disaster.
Hunting/Tracking - His mutant abilities make these skills instinctively easy for him to carry out.
Archery - A sport that he can play that doesn't solely rely on his athletics, but requires him to hone his skills.
Multilingual - English, Spanish, and relearning American Indian languages from his mother.
First Aid - Mostly experienced with animals, but he has been trained to be able to apply it for people as well.
Understanding Animal Behaviors - It's something that he was able to figure out from an early age, and with his father's help he learned more about it.
Musician - Buck is a self-taught guitarist, and does it often to manage a form of self discipline as well as weave through his emotions. Plus, it's fun and he's gotten pretty good st it over the years.
James and his older brother, John, were adopted by the town veterinarian and his wife, the history teacher. While his brother took more interest in history, James was more excited by their dad's job. He loved working with the animals, and his dad caught onto that pretty quickly, so he allowed James to help out with the Vet business. Naturally, his best subject in school was biology, and he went through advanced placement with flying colors.
Though, despite what he was learning about animals otherwise, he couldn't exactly describe what was happening to himself. Puberty contributed some of his worst years already, with hormones and his instincts clashing heavily. The only one that seemed to truly understand him was John, and because of that he looks up to his brother. If he won't talk to anyone else, he'll always go to him. They look after each other and Jimmy couldn't imagine what life would be like without him.
There's always been this call that he had inside that he was destined for something more. John said it was probably the "Call of The Wild", playing off of his childhood nickname. While that part of it was a joke, James can't help but think that something like that could be true. He doesn't know how, but somehow, some way, his life is going to change forever.
The only question is: How Soon?
