--------
Costumed Appearance:
Whenever he is out to perform any actions that do not require his human persona, M'azz will take on his Martian Form, albeit with a full, deep blue outfit that covers the majority of his body (Only his head and tail remain exposed). His Icon can be seen directly on his chest.
Civilian Appearance:
Since his time of arrival on Earth, M'azz has assumed the form of a young man that was near death at the time of his arrival. After reading the young man's mind and learning as much as he could, he let go of the young man, letting him pass on in peace.
In this form, he has a relatively young appearance, with bright blue eyes and a haircut that never seems to change. His clothes appear to suggest that he is mostly all about business, not so much about pleasure.
Icon:
Costumed Personality:
When M’azz is in his Martian form, he is his true self. He will try helping others, be it with little actions or small, and always seek to resolve matters with words before taking the violent route. When it comes to fighting, however, he will not hesitate to show his strength. If pushed too much, he can let his pride take over him and lose track of how far he is going, letting his White Martian Nature take over.
Civilian Personality:
Malcolm could be described as being as a coward, a guy with too much pride, and little care about enjoying the world. He is always just business and no pleasure, and mostly appears whenever there is either a business topic to discuss, or a test hack to perform. With a reputation of being a top-tier hacker among the hackers that actually test things for good, Malcolm has a lot of pride in his work. He will, however, run away at any sign of physical trouble, or start to cower as much as he can to try and not grab the attention of whoever it is that is causing the trouble.
Super abilities:
~Skills~
Excellent Computer-Hacking
Multilingual (His Malcolm form openingly knows English, Spanish, French, German and Japanese)
~Powers~
Martian Physiology
As a White Martian, M'azz has many capabilities that are above the average's humans.
- Flight -
- Superhuman Speed and Strength -
While M'azz can't run as fast as Velocity, his top speed can almost reach Mach 1, and that's while flying. He isn't as strong as the Champion, but he can lift up to 1 ton with ease, with anything beyond that beginning to exhaust him physically.
- Telepathy -
M'azz can project his thoughts into others minds, as long as he knows exactly who he wants to project his thoughts to, or they are in his line of sight. If he tries using this power while his mind is occupied with something else (Such as a fight or a puzzle), then the telepathy will began sounding as though there is interference.
- Mind Control -
M'azz cannot control any human minds. He can only control animals, and even that takes quite a bit of concentration from him.
- Invisibility -
M'azz is capable of turning his body completely invisible. Any organism without thermal vision (Or other special visions) will be incapable of seeing M'azz while he is invisible.
- Intangibility -
M'azz is able to turn himself intangible, being able to phase through anything. However, while he is intangible, he cannot perform any actions that require physical contact. Any attempts to do so will remove his intangibility in its entirety.
- Physical Invulnerability -
M'azz is more resistant to physical blows than the average human. Most knives would also be ineffective against his martian skin.
- Regeneration -
M'azz is capable of healing his own body from wounds. The worse a wound is, however, the more time it will take him to completely heal it. In order to most efficiently heal, however, M'azz needs to let his body rest. If he is up and about, then the regeneration time will triple.
- Decelerated Aging and Self-Sustenance -
The Martian biology allows M'azz to not require any substance in order to maintain his body, and he will be able to live longer than most due to his biology slowing down the aging process of his body.
- Martian Vision -
M'azz's vision goes to a greater scale than that of the average human. He has telescopic vision, and also thermal vision. His Telescopic vision, however, will normally not aid him, unless he knows what he is looking for.
~Vulnerabilities~
- Fire -
Both Physically and Mentally, Martians have a great weakness to fire. It is something they greatly fear, to the point of becoming fully paralyzed upon witnessing it. Physically, being hit by fire or becoming engulfed in fire will cause Martians a lot more damage than anything else would.
- Magic -
Ever since landing on Earth, the exposure to the magic that engulfed the earth had weakened M'azz, and also made him more vulnerable to any kind of magic attacks.
- Firearms -
Due to the heat the bullets require in order to be fired, they are capable of piercing M'azz's Martian skin, in part due to the weakened state M'azz has entered since landing on planet Earth.
~Gadgets~
- Smartphone -
M'azz's smartphone has the appearance of an old, folding phone. However, through replacement of the internal mechanisms, the phone has so much more to offer. Aside from the casual phone calls, it can also be used as a simple hacking device, GPS tracking device, Internet access, and most importantly, a small, mobile map.
Civilian Occupation:
Security System Tester (Via Hacking)
Biography---------
Character History/Origin:
Born on a war-torn Mars, from birth M’azz had found himself in the middle of an ongoing conflict between his kind, the war-driven White Martians, and the supposedly more peaceful Green Martians. It didn’t take long before his parents started to try and feed him lies about the Green Martians, to make his hate towards them grow as much as possible and to have him fully embrace his kind’s violent nature from a young age. And for a while, it worked perfectly. M’azz, as a child, saw the Green Martians as nothing more than pests that needed to be exterminated.
One day it all changed, when he wandered on his own, exploring what was thought to be a desolate area of Mars. He came across a Green and White Martian fighting one another, and was surprised to see that the Green one kept trying to stay on the defensive, while the White kept leaping forward. Upon spotting M’azz, the Green Martian called out to him to run away, only in that moment, the White Martian took advantage of the distraction and managed to strike down his opponent. M’azz just stared, shocked, as his fellow White Martian walked away, thanking him for the needed distraction. In that moment, M’azz started to wonder if things were indeed as his parents told him all along.
For the next few years, he began secretly observing the Green Martians. He found their mannerism to be much more polite, humble and calm than what he told all along. When he looked at his own kind, he realized something was off. His parents descriptions of the Green Martians actually matched what he saw the White Martians do all along. As he attempted to try and reach out to the Green Martians, the White Martians decided to push forward for another large-scale battle.
This battle, which lasted for what M’azz could only describe as ‘too long’, ended with both sides suffering major losses. However, the Green Martians decided enough was enough, and they stepped forward to end the White Martian kind. M’azz, understanding he couldn’t be accepted at this time, ran and hid. As he watched more White Martians be murdered, he promised to himself that he will try and be better from both sides. He moved as far away as he could from the Green Martians, and started to live on his own. It was a struggle at first, but eventually, he had come to embrace the silence that came with this lifestyle.
Close to two centuries later, and M’azz discovered that a Green Martian had spotted him. Deciding it was time, he attempted to approach the Green Martians, only to discover that the remaining few White Martians were reduced to what looked like animals, fighting each other for the enjoyment of the Green Martians, and the latter clearly expected M’azz would be the same. Although he tried talking to them, it was to no avail. They tried pushing him into the same pens as the other White Martians, and he started fighting back. His White Martian nature started to show, and he managed to push his way through many Green Martians. Eventually, he calmed enough to see what he has done, and quickly flew away.
Figuring that he would most likely be wanted on Mars now, M’azz looked for a way to get off Mars. Discovering the Green Martians possessed spaceships, M’azz quickly went and stole one. It took him several months to figure out how to operate the spaceship, but eventually, he managed to do so. By the time he took off Mars, the ship wasn’t in the greatest condition, and half of its fuel reserved were already used up. It took him a quarter of the fuel reserves to break through Mars’s atmosphere, making M’azz worried about where he would be able to go to. Looking at Earth, he decided to head in its direction.
Several months in space, and M’azz found himself close to Earth’s atmosphere. However, it looked different than when he initially started heading towards it, and before he could attempt to stop, the ship got into the atmosphere, putting him in a crash course towards one of the continents. Using what little fuel remained, M’azz managed to slow his ship slightly, but after that gave in, all M’azz could do was phase out of the spaceship. Watching it crash, M’azz decided to go down and see what had happened, only to suddenly feel extremely weakened. Crashing against the ground as well, M’azz felt almost sick. Something on Earth was very different to how Mars was, and he felt it strongly.
After getting up, he made his way to his spaceship, and saw it was completely ruined. Nothing was working in it anymore. Suddenly, he heard noises, and went in their direction to discover what appeared to be a human, underneath a pair of beings that M’azz didn’t even know how to describe. Approaching them, he used his strength to throw both beings away from the human, although he felt very weak afterwards. Kneeling against the human, M’azz realized he was on the verge of death. Decided to make use of this, he read the mind of the young man, learning his language and about the man as the dying human apparently had much he missed and wanted to do. Silently thanking him, M’azz stayed with him until his last breath. At least, he knew, the human who was once called Malcolm did not die in pain.
Using the new information he gained, M’azz made his way to a city called New-York, where Malcolm had lived. It had taken him longer than expected, as his powers were significantly weaker than what he was used to. Taking on Malcolm’s form, M’azz started to live a new life, disguised as a human among the many others. It hadn’t taken him long, however, to notice the crimes and such that were occurring in the city, and he decided to start acting against them. Taking on his Martian form, he started to help those who needed it, albeit with a cloth to cover his body, and also taking on an icon, something he learned many heroes on this planet had. He also started working on his powers every time he could, wanting to bring them back to how they were, and understand what made him so weak.
In the meanwhile, he began taking his civilian form, Malcolm, in a different direction, wanting to try and make sure no one even assumes he is one and the same as the strange M’azz. He learned programming, and found a strange connection to it, and soon turned to hacking. Wanting to make sure he doesn’t do it for the wrong reasons, however, he started offering his services to test the security of different programs, for a price. It took a couple of years, but he started to gain reputation as a test hacker, which allowed him to start grow an ego when it came to his skills. Due to spending as much time as he could as M’azz, Malcolm spent very little time socializing.
Now, M’azz still seeks to learn what on the planet caused him to grow so weak, while fearing the day the Green Martians will come looking for him.
