"I've spent my life around sound, sometimes I just like listening to the silence,"Echo
Full Name: Lucian Dwayne Carter
Age:24
Affiliation: Hero
Superpowers: Echokinesis: Otherwise known as sound manipulation, Echo has the ability to control and manipulate sound in any way he sees fit within a twenty foot radius of himself. He can bend sound to create powerful Soundwave attacks, sonic screeches, etc. He can also affect the sense of hearing to anyone within this radius, taking away that sense or increasing it sharply as he sees fit.
Telekinesis: Echo also has the ability to move abject with his mind within a ten foot radius of himself. He can only lift up to three objects at one time (1-2 if the objects are heavier, the heavier the object the more concentration required), and he can only lift objects for ten minutes continuously before he begins to tire. He cannot lift objects more than three times his weight.
Expert Hand to Hand: Echo is an expert hand to hand fighter, training in this aspect for years so that he wouldn't be at a disadvantage given the nature of his powers. He is a black belt in Ju Jitsu and Karate.
Weaknesses:Air Combat: Echo isn't the best fighter when his feet aren't firmly on the ground. Toss him around in the air and he'll likely be an easier match, as he isn't as well trained in fighting whilst in the air. He actually prefers to
not be in the air unless his feet are firmly planted to something. He also has a fear of heights, and falling to his death.
Not a Chatty Kathy: Echo doesn't talk much, he's definitely the strong silent type. He doesn't much enjoy being around other people, in fact he'd be completely happy spending all of his time alone. He's not very good at conversation or making friends, and he doesn't put in much effort to become better at doing so either. He honestly just likes being by himself.
Vulnerability: Whole Echo is using his telekinesis, he opens himself up to attack as he has no way to defend himself if he's busy using his power elsewhere. This can make him a bit slow on the uptake and open to attack, as his powers require quite a bit of focus. Echo is most vulnerable from the back and sides while he's using his telekinetic powers.
Personality:Lucian is quiet, a deep thinker, a loner, and a champion all in one. He's a survivor at the core, determined to at least remain standing when hr world finally goes to shit(as he know it will). Most would call him a pessimist, but he prefers realist. He is courageous, strong-willed, and confident. But he isn't one for idle chatter or gossip. He doesn't play well with others, mostly because he hardly ever talks. He enjoys silence more than someone with his powers probably is expected to, he prefers intellectual conversations to any other form of communication, and he has no patience for evil doers. He doesn't care what reason they have for doing what they do, he loathes all of the villains he encounters on principle. He doesn't give second chances often, he doesn't trust easily, and it takes a while for him to warm up to anyone.
History/Bio:Lucian was born to a single mother hard in her luck in the big city of Metro City. From a young age he was raised to believe that life was hard and then you died. His mother instilled in him values based on a "if you expect the worst, you won't be disappointed" mindset.
When he was eight, his mother was murdered in a car accident. After that, Lucian moved to the other side of the city to live with his aunt, who ended up being an alcoholic. When he was ten, his aunt locked him inside the small closet that held her giant stereo system with it on full blast while she was passed out drunk. It should have killed him, but instead it gave him his powers over sound. How, Lucian had no idea.
So certainly the age of ten, Lucian has lived on the streets of Metro City, surviving on his own. He's been taking care of himself, doing odd jobs around the city to make money to sustain himself. Lucian can't tell you where he first discovered his telekinetic powers, not sure how or when they developed himself. He just had them one day, as if he'd always had them. It had been very strange.
When he was eighteen, Echo became Echo. Now a full fledged adult, Lucian decided his powers were of better use to the greater good than just to himself. He wanted to help people, make a difference, be someone his mother could be proud of.
And so Echo was born, and from then on Lucian worked to rid Metro City of all the villains it held... As many as there were.
