Skills/Abilities
Intelligence- Oscar is an extremely smart man, he's perceptive, and a genius when it comes to languages, on the Marvel power Grid he is a 4.
Polygot- He is also a Language genius knowing 6 languages fluently: German, Spanish, English, French, Latin, and Tagalog.
Insight- Oscar has a great insight that can normally help him read deeper into a situation or into someone. Paired with his skills he is able to pick up many different things now, to the point of being able to even read an opponent's moves within moments of them thinking of the action. Giving him a unique skill that has manifested, Skill Mimicry.
Skill Mimicry- His skills and body are incredibly honed, to the point where he is able to pick out little details in anything he is looking at. This includes how people move, to the point where he has the ability to memorize how to replicate the motions they make, and with his own insight and his control over his body from his powers he is even able to steal their skills. He might not be perfect in the steal, as his body might not be suited for it. Yet with his very deep understanding of how skills and fighting works, he is able to morph anything someone does, may they be bigger or smaller than him, and use it in a way most fitting, and if he likes what he takes, he might just keep it.
Oscar is able to use his great insight and his body control to enhance his vision to analyze and steal his opponent's techniques, then he improves by using his skills. He is able to grasp most styles or techniques after some time of watching them and moments later being able to use them, this skill isn't limited to just fighting styles. This includes any movements, acrobatics, or techniques he is able to see and understand. He's unable to perform magic and other things like that without understanding the principles, so watching someone shoot a fireball will not give him the ability to do so, nor watching someone use mystical punches will somehow give him the power to do the mystical parts of the punch.
Strength- That of a man at his peak, Oscar is quite confident in his strength yet he isn't some monster without his power. When he isn't using his power he'd be a 2 on the Marvel power grid, but when he is using his power to lift his limits on himself he'd be a 3 and if he goes further a 4, but at that much, he will break himself under his own strength.
Speed- Without his powers, Oscar is quite quick and nimble on his feet, and very fit as he is able to clock a 4-minute mile, yet with his power, he is able to move faster halving his time in a mile from a 4-minute to a 2-minute mile, but it can tire him out pretty quickly doing this. On the Marvel power grid, he'd be a very low-end 3 high-end 2.
Durability- Oscar is a tough man, he has fought people with broken bones, has run himself ragged through training, boxing matches, and then went to fight crime on the street. The only thing that really keeps him going is that his power allows him to control his body's functions to have his muscles push out the lactic acid quickly and to ignore his pain and tiredness. On the Marvel power grid, he's a 2 yet with his powers he can become a pseudo 3 by making himself not bleed out or not feel the pain.
Fighting Skills- Oscar is a natural fighter, but he is also trained in boxing and is a wrestling star. Yet with his power and natural abilities, he is able to mimic the skills he watches for enough time, as after a bit of time he is able to perform different skills, like attacks, movements, and acrobatics with great accuracy to what he's watched. His skills right now on the Marvel power grid are of a 4.
Wrestling King- He was a high school/college level wrestler and a good one at that, he even used wrestling as a way to get through college, as he has won National Wrestling Championships.
Boxing Genius- He trained as a boxer, and even became professional after moving to New York and has been in multiple matches. He has not lost a match yet, he hasn't been planning on going for the title, even though many wish for him to try.
Longsword novice- Oscar had never trained with a 2 handed weapon, nor does he have the time to try now, but he is picking up what he needs, but he is nowhere near dueling ready.
Natural Fighter- His knack for fighting is a thing to behold as he has a great fighting spirit and great instincts.
Weaknesses
As far as weaknesses go, Oscar is pretty normal and decently close to a normal person. Sure he has powers, however, his powers only partially make him more 'durable' than a normal person. He can stop himself from bleeding out of some wounds, this doesn't mean he can just not worry about someone shooting him, and a large wound means he can slow the bleeding rather than just stop the bleeding. His increased strength can only go so far, as it is just hysterical strength rather than a strength increase. The more he uses his power to increase his strength, the more he is risking breaking his bones. And his power doesn't give him more stamina, it just makes it where he can ignore his body, the exhaustion will still catch up with him no matter how much he tries.
Powers
Spirit Sword-
Oscar is able to summon a 2 handed longsword to his hand, this sword has many strange features. If an object/person was not the intended target, then the blade will pass through the object or person and leave no harm done.
- If the target was intended yet the intention is not to kill then the blade will pass through them and deal pain through their nervous system, rather than physical pain they will have mental pain, like ghost pains.
- An intended target can be any person or object, so if he focused, he would be able to make the intended target a blade he would come into contact with, so he can block with it still.
- The sword can pass through most things, but energy fields and energy based protections seems to be able block the blade.
- The blade seems to be created of some form of psychic energy, yet Oscar has no real understanding of his actual sword, nor it's composition, as often when he tries to change it's form it always stays it's same shape.
No other object seems able to stop the blade when it is not the target, not even steel or lead. The only real obstacle seems to be the length of the blade and where his hand is placed. Other than that the blade can pass through and hit the intended target. Yet the target must be known to be there or it will just pass through them as well. Such as if someone is behind a wall and he doesn't know of them, it will just pass through them, even if they are an enemy to him.
Other than these strange features the blade seems to have no other effects or abilities other than being a sharp blade and Oscar seems unable to throw the sword, almost as if it glues itself to one of his hands at all times.
Full Body Control-
This is a very strange ability in comparison to his other power, yet is a helpful one. This power gives him control over his body, may it be how much power his muscles put out, how the blood flows, or even what things about his body prioritize as essential. This gives him a unique ability to even decide if he needs to see color and start prioritizing his kinetic vision and reaction speed to allow him more perceived time to dodge faster attacks.
This skill gives him the ability to increase his own healing speed by upping his metabolism, stop himself from bleeding out by controlling how the blood flows, and even increasing his power by bypassing his bodies natural limiters and using much more of his own strength, but this can be a detriment as he would then risk injury by breaking his own body by having his muscles go beyond what they are naturally meant to and even break bones from the stress he can put them under.
However, doing any of this takes quite a bit of concentration, as it can often strain his mind when he tries to do too much all at once, so often times he will prioritize certain things like if he is bleeding, he won't try to control the muscles in the area because it would require greater control and concentration to make the blood flow to other placed while concentrating on the power output of his muscles, which would often divert his concentration in a fight. But once he prioritizes something like his kinetic vision over colors, it is a one-time thing that will stay until he goes and switches it back, oftentimes he can forget to do this based on how long he keeps it on.
His ability can be detected through 2 different methods, the first is through psychic energy, as his power is partially using his psychic energy to enact his will, and perform his feat. The second way is through a chemical screening/scanning, as when he uses his power, his body will oftentimes create different chemicals for his body to respond to, telling which muscles to do what and how hard, ignoring pain receptors in certain areas, how his blood will flow to certain areas, and many other things. If someone was to concoct a chemical that was able to counteract these chemicals, he would be unable to perform most of his abilities with his Full Body Control, leaving mostly the things he is able to do in his head, which would be changing his perception and eyesight, ignoring all feeling by turning off all his receptors, and lifting his restraint of his all of his muscles, but being unable to control them, so they would fire off at 100% power, which can easily break his bones.
Personality
|Goofy| |Dogmatic| |Determined| |Naive| |Compassionate| |Awkward|
Personality: He is actually a really nice and genuine guy as he is quite Jovial and happy. He always tries to put a smile on others' faces and tries to help in any way he can as he loves to watch people be happy. He can't be described as a social butterfly, yet he can definitely work his way through conversations and can be charismatic when needed. But, he normally is just an average guy who is slightly goofy and awkward, and just wants to help people.
Likes: Literature, Mythology, and Meat.
Dislikes: Those who go against his ideals, Sweets, and Deep Water.
Fears: Him being unable to achieve his dreams, and others getting hurt because of him.
Appearance
Standing at 6'1 and weighing 186 pounds Oscar has a muscular and lean frame. He has a cute face and a bright smile, yet has a body that looks like a chiseled sculpture. He has scars here and there but nothing major, anything that would have left scar came later in life when he had his power, at which point he was more able to control how it healed, and made sure it was mostly unnoticeable.
His left arm will often cramp and start getting some pain, and it is bad when it rains, but he will normally push through it and if he is able to use his power, he will often enact more control over his arm to better make it more, stop the cramping, or turn of his sense in the arm to ignore the pain if he needs more focus.

Bio:
Oscar was born in America to a Filipino Mother, Michelle Carter, who was born on a US Air Force base and was moved to America, and an American Soldier, Joseph Helgrem, who met her while on leave in the States. They conceived Oscar quickly and once his father became more stable he was able to be with his family more often. Allowing Oscar to have a great and caring family around him. Oscar always watched on as his father talked of Super-Heroes with reverence and honor as if they were a great part of our society rather than them menacing. This built and molded an ingrained wish in Oscar: "I want to be just like them!"
After years of schooling, being a good student and an athlete he wanted to try his best to get into a good college and start a career path to becoming a politician. As in his mind, if he can't become a hero, he should at least make sure they aren't being treated as a menace. So his career path was set in front of him and he had a dream. He wanted to get into the best school he could, and one of his best ways to distinguish himself was to do what he was good at Wrestling. As he went and showed off his skills in state championships, and was invited to participate in the national championship. He knew this was his chance to show off his skills, as he went with determination, yet this year had some pretty strong competition, many different people came this year, many well known in their careers as well, so the competition was going to be tough.
Yet again and again Oscar showed his fantastic skills until he was met with the person everyone was calling, the monster. He was a 6 foot even man who didn't seem much bigger than Oscar at the time, but something was off, Oscar could tell something was strange about him, but went in anyway. As the Wrestling match began, Oscar realized why they called him, the monster, his strength was incredible, to the point where it became apparent to Oscar he was far beyond normal as when Oscar used a quick lock, it felt as the man bruised Oscar by simply grabbing his arm and gripping it. Oscar called the refs to check him, as that's when it was found the kid was a mutant who went under the radar, and no one called him out until now. The kid was disqualified for hiding such an important thing, giving Oscar the win as he went on and became the National Champion.

The kid was disqualified for hiding such an important thing, giving Oscar the win as he went on and became the National Champion.
Later that night, Oscar found out why most people never spoke up against him, as he had a track record that followed, many people tried to bring something up, but were found that night mutilated and shoved into trash cans. As Oscar was walking back to his hotel room to prepare to go home from the convention, as he was cornered in an alleyway by the kid who got disqualified because Oscar brought up his wicked strength. As the kid came at Oscar like a lightning bolt and punched Oscar hard enough to make him go flying. Oscar, had no time to try anything other than block, as that punch felt like it shattered his arm. Oscar felt his body go into a panic, his fight or flight response kicked in as he felt his blood boil. He didn't know what to do, he couldn't run, but fighting would get him killed for sure. Oscar knew the only way out was to fight, yet how was he going to beat him?
Oscar thought back to his training in boxing, as he remembered a combo, something taught to him as a real finisher, yet required perfect timing. Oscar was in pain, he felt exhausted because of his matches today, so he knew this was his best shot, but he knew he wasn't in the best state to do it. He wished the pain in his arm would go away, as at that moment the pain felt as if it stopped, it felt as if all feeling in his arm stopped. Oscar looked at it as he thought he just lost his arm, but it was still there, he lifted it up and saw it was moveable. Oscar had no clue what was going on, but he knew something was happening, so he thought up a plan and started talking to the man, in a scared and panicked voice, maybe he can get him to monologue. As in that moment, Oscar's prayer was answered as the kid started monologuing, giving Oscar time to try and think, he knew he needed to think and think fast. His first thought went to hoping he could focus himself on his reactions, hoping to heighten them, as he felt everything slow slightly everything was maybe a fraction of a second slower, but everything seemed brighter. Oscar started getting a headache, as he realized his power might have been something to do with his body, as he thought of the colors dimming, and well, all the colors disappeared, leaving only black and white, and all of the shades in-between.
Oscar's head felt okay again, as the kid started his advance, about to come in for a rush, but that's the moment Oscar was told to aim for, so he rushed forward and shifted slightly to the side, enough to get out of the way of the first hit, as he just put all the force he could into a hook aiming right for the boy's chin. Once that hit landed, the boy's head wobbled slightly, as Oscar shifted his feet and swung from the other side with his broken arm, and hit him on the chin again, as once the kid looked as if he was about to take a step back, Oscar stepped forward and sent a final straight, aiming right for the boy's chin once more. Doing all of this to rattle his brain and hopefully knock him out. As the boy looked like he was wobbling and churning, as he tried to take a step forward, but all that happened was that he threw up and fell over. Oscar fell over as he felt his body start tiring as he looked at the boy, as he felt relief over come him, until he saw the boy getting up.
Oscar saw this and began to panic, he was already running on fumes because of everything, but now the boy is able to still stand. Oscar got up, as he looked at him and took in breaths trying to focus, he needed a way to hurt the boy, however his body is far too strong to do it without killing him. Until he felt some energy well up within him, as he felt an energy in his chest, at first he thought it was his body getting ready for a fight, until he started seeing a light emanating from his chest, as Oscar grabbed at his chest, as a blade seems to slowly form in his hand. Oscar wasn't aware of it at the time, because of his vision, but the sword shone with a bright gold as he took it and prepared to fight. As the boy rushed Oscar, Oscar took a preemptive strike to cut at the boys arm, but the boy went to grab the blade. Little did either of them know, the blade would pass through the boys arm, yet it felt like to the boy that his arm was just cut in half.
Oscar didn't know what happened, yet he continued and attack the boy a few more times, each slash passing through, yet each one landing and sending waves of intense pain through the boy. As the fighting became much more like a flurry of slashes that send pain through both of them, as every swing Oscar did shifted the shattered bones in his arm and got passed his want for his body to ignore it, yet he needed to do this. If he stopped he was dead, he knew that now, so he fought. Until finally the boy standing infront of him fell over, as did Oscar.
This was Oscar's first experience with his powers. He woke up the next day as he was in the hospital, as it was on the news of what happened.

This was Oscar's first experience with his powers. He woke up the next day as he was in the hospital, as it was on the news of what happened.
After that Oscar had finished his high school career, getting more into boxing and starting to get really good. As now his goals are a little different, now having powers, Oscar felt maybe he could be a bit of a hero while getting into politics. As Oscar had the choice of where he wanted to go, he thought the best place to go would be somewhere out of his comfort zone, so he decided to go somewhere he knew was going to be different, but now being a mutant was a bit of an issue as some of his prospects seemed to dislike the fact he now was a mutant. Many wished to discredit his Champion status for him being a mutant and 'hiding it', yet it seemed others were on his side, often speaking out to his character and some of the dreams he has always held.
Oscar did have somewhere in mind to go to, after all, him being an open mutant made the choice easy, Empire State University. There he went and started his college life, he went in for Political Science and Mythology. He had been interested in Mythology and wanted to major in it, why? Because of the interest in mythology and how powers mimic the many details we find in the past of myths. Leading to one of his ideas that these powers could have come from much earlier than what many people even think. Like having powers like that of a Pheonix is not something people made up, but his ideas have not held much ground as of yet, after all, some people just find it to be coincident, he thinks this could lead to a much bigger thing, like this being a mutation that constantly occurs, but dies off, probably because of strife and or thought of them being different, like what happened with the witch trials.
Yet besides that his life started, well, he did do a few other things, he went onto the boxing scene, where he had to sign many different things about him not using his powers, after all, after disclosing his powers, it was easy to say he was able to fight, as with monitoring he would be able to be found if he uses his powers as it leaves a very noticeable trace as his body will release certain chemicals to enact his power. As here he proved not only the strength of his character to have never cheated, even on accident, but also his skill as a boxer. He has also started doing the same thing in Wrestling, as he had often used his skills to show off his abilities in Wrestling, to also disprove those who wished to discredit his National Championship in Highschool, he went on to continually win.
Now he fights crime, goes to school, is a wrestling star, a boxing legend in the making, and trying to become a politician, this man has his work cut out for him. For his fighting crime, he actually spends his time doing research into crime movements. He often spends his time getting information on movements on criminals, then uses his skills to find someone to 'tag' and pays attention to their movements. After following them he goes and busts deals and stuff that happened when his tagged target leaves, or feeds information to those he knows will be interested. He does this so it is easier to keep getting information from the same person, and will eventually find someone of more interest and 'tag' them. How he tags them, he'll often look at everything they have, what they wear, where they go, what they eat, and eventually profiles them with the info he has and tails them when he finds them, slowly building a more detailed profile on the person. He makes these detailed profiles to either use them or give them to people who are interested or the authorities to apprehend them.
