Name: Roger Sharp
Codename: Roger is "The man with the name of hidden meanings." Whenever he is asked for his name, he replies with something that doesn't make sense at first but always has a truth behind it.
City of Operation: This used to be 3 southern cities/towns in the UK but Roger has booked a flight to the International Airport in Cleveland, in Ohio, USA.
Appearance: Roger is 171cm tall which is about 5'7". He's fit and healthy yet heavy. He has very pale skin which sunburns easily, especially on his neck and feet. His cheeks are very smooth and he has soft stubble. Speaking of hair, Roger's has a mind of its own. His dark brown hair is spiky in an irregular pattern due to it growing fast and him not caring to comb/brush it. He has green/teal colour eyes that are sometimes red and sore due to hayfever. His eyebrows aren't anything to be excited about. Roger has a round birthmark on his left leg, usually half covered by his socks.
His sense in fashion isn't great. If it's comfortable, he'll wear it. He normally wears a t-shirt with a random pattern on it accompanied with tracksuits. Occasionally, shorts replace the tracksuits and a colourful cap is worn. Roger is into cross-dressing (dressing as the opposite gender) but he hasn't done it since the White Rain.
Age: 17 years old. His Birthday is on the 22nd of March 2001. He was only 13 when he got his power and has learned all about it since.
Gender: Male
Superpowers:
Retrocognition = Roger can see anything that has happened in the past but he can not alter it. He has been practising this power for a while and has gotten really good at it and can sometimes see 2 things at once but it hurts his eyes. The only difficulty with seeing these "visions" is that they can be blurry if Roger doesn't focus on them. They pose no threat to his mental state unless he recalls a dramatic event. To recall an event, he needs to think of a place and a rough estimate of the time. He can quickly scan different days to see if it has anything he is looking for.
Uses for this psychic power are:
Finding something that is lost.
Gaining knowledge on historical events.
Knowing someone's password/information.
Remembering something important.
Finding quick answers to long, complicated problems/dilemmas.
Skills/ Talents: Roger is a very talented boy. He used to be a genius at most subjects but ordinary school isn't very welcoming these days. He is very fast and has good stamina, resulting in him being good at races under 800m. Anything more and he'll get too worn out. He learned some Spanish which he was good at but has forgotten most of it. He's generally good at most activities if they aren't boring or repetitive. Roger isn't very charismatic but younger people get along with him well and remember him better than he remembers them. He also is decent at using many impractical tools as weapons if necessary. Because he is a quick learner, Roger may learn how to use many firearms excluding his simple revolver. If he needs someone to teach him, he could recall a mentor showing someone how to fire a rifle, implying he has the correct place and date. One final thing, he's easily underestimated and could be in your kitchen right now.
Equipment: Since he recently arrived in Cleveland, Roger does not have much. If he needs something, he will probably know where to get it even if it takes him a while to actually get it. In late 2015, the "infinite backpack" was a popular invention mass-produced for a cheap price all over the globe. Roger has gotten his hands on one and carries it around often. In one of his tactical raids, Roger has gotten himself an unnamed device from a bankrupt organisation. This device looks like an iPhone and has multiple functions, the main one being preserving his conscience. If Roger is ever killed, the device is said to hold his conscience until he can be placed back into a body. Of course, this is just a rumour. Roger has never died but the evidence that it works was from a reliable source.
Other features the device has is:
Playing music and being able to create your own.
Playing games like Pong.
An up-to-date GPS/Map.
Being able to send signals to some other devices.
It's own internet browser with a talking interface.
The final thing he likes to carry is a modified revolver which seems to never run out of bullets yet the trigger can not be pulled often. Roger has named this revolver "Chance" since the projectile has a mind of it's own. Sometimes it kills the person and over times it lets them free. This revolver is just as famous as Roger is.
Weaknesses: Roger hides his weaknesses well. The only obvious one would be the fact he has nothing to protect him. You could shoot him and probably be successful. Just because you don't know his weaknesses, doesn't mean he doesn't have any. He may have a fear of water but if you can tell that from him you must be observant. Hayfever may also be included. Roger's eyes get sore and his nose is at war with him; he sneezes and sniffs a lot.
Psyche: Roger believes that life is pointless and you should just make the most out of it. He doesn't like making people suffer but can't tolerate people who show no respect towards him or the people he believe are good. He does bad things to bad people. You may call him a vigilante but his view is very varied. He also used to suffer depression and anger issues. Sometimes this reoccur but he can easily deal with them.
History: Roger was an intelligent boy, born into Bristol, South-West England. As you know, he was gifted in school and did great in lots of things. He was bullied as well but nothing too unusual. When the White Rain appeared, Roger was walking home and got caught in it. Since it didn't hurt him, he continued walking home and only noticed its effect 2 weeks later. Roger could see his memories much clearer and also saw things he never witnessed before. Fortunately, he could easily control these early on. Sometimes he got a random vision but he just thought of kittens to counter. After he heard of everyone else getting powers and all the chaotic things happening, Roger felt both envious of the other people who had powers such as teleportation and telekinesis yet excited because his power wasn't actually bad.
Roger understood his powers and other people's powers on the 1st of October, 2015. His life changed a lot so he had to make adjustments. For fun, he'd learn something new and do it. In February 2016, he learned how to drive a car just by remembering people being taught outside his house a year ago. Later the same year was the time he found his infamous revolver lying out on the street. He wondered why it was here and why no one had seen it. He looked in the past to find the origin of the revolver and he saw a soldier crying over someone while the gun pointed at his own head.
Using his revolver, he stole many things for both himself and the people who needed it. He claimed people's lives for what he believed was the greater good. Throughout 2017, he appeared on the BBC often for his acts and crimes. No one knew if he was good or bad and they didn't have a picture or a name to give him. They interviewed a witness who said they should call him "The Man with names of hidden meanings." Even though it was a beefy title, they stuck with it. Some people without powers rooted for him and said he was the hero of Southern England, some even said the world.
Roger recently flew to Cleveland on a guarded plane. No one knew anything about the plane and so it landed with no fuss. Roger has never been to anywhere in North America before so his first feelings were excited. On the date of arrival he found an untouched hotel not too far from the center of action. Lots of the local heroes have protected and even resided here. The only time the hotel was in danger was when somebody committed Arson to random places to gain attention and fame.
Why is Roger here you ask? Overwhelmed with boredom, Roger drew a rough sketch of the map of the Earth on a wall and used Chance to decided where he should go. Ohio was where the bullet hit.
((Haven't done a roleplay in a year, hope this is good enough.))
