MY NAME IS { richard alexander basil}
but some people know me better as { transfer }
Picture here. No stretching the page, please.
When people see me, they notice...
(Looks go here. Height, weight, eye, skin, hair color. Are they really tall? Haves scales? Are they built like a line-backer, or have fur all over? Is their hair electric blue naturally?)
When they talk to me, though, they might make note of...
(Personality! How does your character feel about mutants and/or humans? Do they have a soft spot for turtles and rainbows, or are they out-and-out rude and simply make no lies about it? Dramatics, dullness, childishness - details are loved.)
Now, as for those people I'm related to, well, I've got...
Richard does not have real parents, but his adoptive father and mother, Daniel and Lily Basil take good care of him. Other than that, he has no family he is aware of, and generally doesn't mingle with his parents.
The things I'm good at? Glad you asked...
(Talents, strengths, whatever you want to call them. Anything from leadership qualities to being a pool shark to making origami can go in here.)
But I'm not completely perfect...
(And weaknesses. Make sure these are personality weaknesses - weaknesses in their powers are in a section all their own below! Do they hate math? Or getting up in the morning? Can your character not control their temper, or do they just loathe being part of a team?)
I guess you want to know about what sets me apart from most of the population, huh? Well...
Richard has two "abilities" granted by his mutated genes, both of which interact differently with mutants and normal humans. He calls the general idea of the first "transference." in normal humans, on contact he can transfer all consciousness from one to another. If he touches two or more people at the same time, he can swap the two or all three of them at the same time. This expires after about five minutes if his own body is not touching the person where he transferred his own consciousness. This can happen with mutants too, if he wants. In mutants, however, he can instead use transference to swap mutant powers with other mutants. He cannot take on the mutant powers himself, but he can swap them between two other mutants. This lasts so long as the two people don't come into contact with each other again.
His second mutant power is precognition, but it is different from being able see the future or know when danger is coming. Richard is naturally drawn to sites of important happenings. He will often stop mid action and just go to the place of which important things happen. He never knows what will happen and it can be both good and bad. But he always knows where and when those things are going to happen. He calls this "site of import".

Awesome, right? Well, not all the time...
The most glaring weakness of his transference ability is contact and time. Once he swaps bodies with someone, he has five minutes to move as he wants, but his body is now inhabited by the other person as well and it can be put into danger. It also has a five minute time limit. Once that time limit is met, his consciousness immediately resets to his body and vice versa. Also contact with his body will forcibly reset the consciousness.
The site of import ability also has glaring weaknesses. He can never know if it is good or bad, or whether it will be life-threatening or not. He will only know if

If you see me out in the street, you'd notice I wear...
(Clothes, clothes, clothes. If they have a costume design, put it in here - just specify what it is. If they don't have a costume, you still have to put down what your character wears normally - multi-layered shirts, daisy-dukes, robes, yadda yadda. Do they dress up all the time, or only for special occasions, ect?)
Maybe some of that comes from my past...
(Your history, my friends, cannot simply be a two-line festival of woe. Not everyone's parents die while getting mugged - but we do realize not everyone's parents are totally accepting, either. Whatever you put down, at least two paragraphs are required, but more makes your application that much better.
Canon note: Please make sure to research at least the basics of your character, whatever version or mash of versions you use. Try to keep it at least a little realistic - Logan did not evolve from an actual wolverine, for instance, not matter what the eighties would tell you.)
You want to meet me? It's your lucky day - here's a sneak peek...
alex hated new year's eve parties. it meant two very excruciating details: he was probably going to be kissed, and that someone was probably human. he shuddered at the thought as he leaned back against a pillar. all his "friends" were there. he referred to them in this regard because all they really cared about was his party trick.
And the person behind the curtain reveals themselves...
(What's your name? How can we contact you? Your favorite color? Add anything about yourself you want to in this section!)
And we got here by...
(Did someone from this site recommend you? Did you like our ad, or just wanted to try something a little different? This bit isn't mandatory, but we'd like to know anyway.)
