Smystar99Hey guys, this looks great. Got space for one more?
Name: Steve Ross (I swear I found out about the real Steve Ross after I thought of this name. I google my RP names sometimes to check if I'm not accidentally referring to something I don't want. But this guy is cool, you should check him out: youtube.com/watch?v=KFouile2gDk )
Epic Identity: The Giant
Age: 28
Faction: Epic, neutral
Ability: Super size. In giant form, Steve stands a solid 20 meters tall. With everything else in proportion. This comes with being a lot stronger and somewhat slower than the averge human. His skin is proportionally thicker so it's harder to pierce, but not impenetrable.
Weakness: Sitting (yes really): when both of his legs have at least a 90 degree angle at both the knee and the hip, he shrinks to a normal human size of 1,80 meters. He only stays small while he remains in this position. It's also his only way to control his size. So if he doesn't squat or sit or crouch, he is automatialy giant.
Personality: On the surface, Steve has a mild personality. He is calm, rational and empathic. But underneath he is always feeling uneasy. Mainly because he feels disabled, while he is actually very able. He feels that being his true self could cause harm to others and would make him unwanted. When he sees strong men showing of their manlyness and competing, he wants to stand up and show them he is even bigger and stronger. But he doesn't. Because that would be a bad thing to do.
Appearance: Most noticable about steve is the wheelchair he uses to move around while remaining seated. He only gets out when he does want to turn giant, which is rarely. Next to that, Steve is a slender white guy with messy brown hair and any dark monocolor shirt. His dark blue pants are also a little quirky: Very baggy and made from stretch material. It took him a while to find something that would grow with him to cover his butt and genitals. While giant they function as his boxershort. Although a little tight at that size, it's the only clothing that is not destroyed when he grows. (The Naked Giant is now a thing of the past, as far as the genital area is concerned. Can you imagine people calling names to a guy that big?)
Background: Leaving fetal position, Steve started growing as he was being born, killing his mother in the process. The weeks after were very hard for everybody, as they had a giant baby who has covered in pieces of his mother's dead body, who wanted to be fed, but was at te same time, quite dangerous to be around. Going hungry, Steve ate the remains of his mother. After three weeks they figured out what it was that made him shrink every now and then. It was then they decided to tie him to a chair for the rest of his life. His father was heavily traumatised and didn't want to hear of Steve's ambition to walk. Once steve reached his teenage years, this was the cause of a lot of arguments. Also, the tight ropes were now replaced by locked steel mechanisms to which only his father held the key. The key which his father had molten into a medallion with a picture of Steve's mother, which he had given to him, to hopefully chain him emotionally as well. (Rumor has it, that Steve's dad secretly turned to the kryptonites for advice) Steve was indeed very chained to his wheelchair, but had learned to sleep like that. Also, the chair had another mechanism which helped him go to the bathroom without too much trouble.
In highschool Steve was the nerdy wheelchair guy without much friends. But as his longing for freedom grew he eventually made friends with an epic guy that could melt steel beams. This guy would later be known as Jet Fuel.
They went out to an open field and melted Steve's chains. Steve tried to stand up but had never used his legs before so he fell flat on his face. He grew though. After a year of training intensively, Steve was finally able to stand and walk. His dad feared him, but they found a way to deal with each other. For a lot of practical purposes, Steve still uses his wheelchair to -ironically- be able to participate in normal life. His giant size hinders entrance to most places, is not conveniant for socialization, plus: it requires him to eat more than he can afford. He had some rough years, living in the sewers with the freaks for a while, spending some time at his dad's place feeling unwanted, and at his friend Jet's parents place. But now, the dust has settled and he lives in an appartment in a nice neighbourhood, together with his friend Jet Fuel.
