Name: Chaz Rolender
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 140
Personality: Chaz is mostly A nice person who doesn't really make friends. He often stops to help people out when he can, but doesn't allow people to get close to him in case they discover his secret. Because of this, he remains closed off from most people. However for those who do manage to enter into the realm of madness know as his circle of friends, they find a crazy, helpful, playfully insulting (he NEVER harms anyone with his words, he views that as just wrong), and scary person is hidden behind the calm exterior. Very few have seen Chaz get truly mad, and none have walked away from his direct anger.
When it come to the government, Chaz is very much against the way they handle thing in some areas, and very supportive in others. He would much rather have the government just keep a registry of the CotD then hunt them down. Just like you would keep a registry of people with a weapons permit. His views on other areas are similar, if it doesn't cause a problem, then it shouldn't be seen as a problem.
Bio: Chaz grew up in the corporate circle, and has had a relatively normal life. He went to school, learned how to run the family tech store, and got all of the licenses necessary. The only times he has ever had anything out of the ordinary happen is one time, when he was fifteen, his best friend was killed in an accident caused by the MPF, which caused him to close up; and a time when a CotD tried to kidnap him and he turned its own power (the power to cause major allergic reactions) against it, killing it. The fallout of the killing was actually pretty minor as the death was put down as an unlucky accident.
Skills: Bartering, cooking, organizing, finances, store-keeping/managing, understands how to use any piece of technology that doesn’t interface with the human body, as well most clean (aka doesn't need any extra tools or medical knowledge) interfacing tech. Advanced programming skills and basic electronic skills are also a necessity for his job.
Power: Chaz has the power to identify and copy and other Child of the Dark's power, however he can only identify a persons powers by seeing them; or mimic a persons power if he has touched them, and only for as long as he touched them. This can stack indefinitely, so if he knocks out a CofD, or interacts with them physically then he is building up the amount of time he can use their power. He can store any number of powers.
Drawback: Chaz has a headache that slowly builds up as he absorbs others power. The headache grows in relation to the amount of time he has charged for each power, however the headache goes away as long as he is not charging his power. Each power he charges causes a different headache, and they don't combine. This means that if he charges one power up to the point of a migraine, then goes and starts charging another, then the headache starts at the bottom again. However, if he starts charging the first power again, the headache goes right back to where it was. As of now, this limits him to no more then an hour long charge for any power, as that is all of the pain he can stand. In addition to his personal drawback, while using another's powers, he has all of their drawbacks.
Possessions: In addition to partial ownership of the store (to prevent anything going wrong if his parents died); he has a small amount of saved up wealth; a moderately good condition vehicle custom rigged by hand that he personally maintains; and several household tech devices. Nothing like what the R&D or political circles have (he can't afford it), but a fair amount nonetheless.
Other: Not much more to tell...yet.
