Athalia Academy

Ok now that I'm caught up on everything....

I should have a post up later today at some point. I've got kind of a busy day ahead of me >.<

Athalia Academy

Holy crap, I log off for a day and there's 200 new posts O.O

Athalia Academy

Appearance

Name: Plato (his finder never game him a last name)
Age: 3 months though appears roughly 17 (explained below)
Gender: identifies as male
Species/Race: Unknown (read: I still haven't come up with a name for his race that I particularly like)

Powers:

Binding: Plato can temporarily bind objects together through force of will. The harder he pushes himself, the longer the binding. For instance: he could prank a fellow student by binding their shoes to the floor preventing them from moving for a short time or he could bind an attacker's arms to their chest to stop an attack.

Weaknesses:

Strongly Empathic: Plato, given his nature, is very strongly empathic and this can be both a boon and a curse. Being in the vicinity of strong emotions for an extended period of time can leave him a useless wreck for a day or two until his energies sort themselves out.

Personality: Plato is extremely curious about everything. This place, this solid world, is new to him and everything is exciting. He quickly learned how to act in social interactions from the old man who found him and took him in but he can still be awkward at times when around people.

Background: Humans are incredibly imaginative thinkers. Their hopes and dreams are powerful mental creations that reverberate through the underlying web of the cosmos and affect everything they touch even if humanity isn't sensitive enough to detect this. The power of these constructs created another dimension along side the one the humans know. This world is populated by ideas. It is fluid and ever changing. Over time these ideas, these constructs, began to become self aware as they were constantly fueled by the psychic energy of the physical human realm. Some of these ideas wanted to experience what these strange, solid creatures experienced so strongly. Thus, Plato was born. Three months ago, Plato was forced into this realm in the form of a young man. An unexpected consequence of the transference was that Plato had no memory of his time in the purely cognitive realm that he was born in. Luckily for him a kindly old man found him and slowly coaxed some memories back. The old man, being educated, decided to name the young man Plato in reference to the ancient philosopher's theory of forms. Through his coaxing, Plato was able to remember fragments of who he was and why he was sent here, but not everything came back and he is hoping that his interactions with humans at Athalia Academy will help.

Study: More than anything Plato will be studying humans.

Oh hey there Hylian! You may or may not remember me from the old board. I'm interested in this. Give me a couple hours or so and I'll have a character up if you'll have me!
