I have PM'ed ThreeWords my character sheet. just thought i'd include it here too.
Name:Kristopher Rahl
Appearance:A modest looking 20 year old, Kris tends to keep things simple when it comes to what he wears, meaning he doesn't stray much from his dark jeans and lighter colored t-shirts. He also wears a worn leather jacket, again, nothing too fancy. Kris stands at 5'8", has straight shoulder length brown hair and grey eyes.
Powers:Kris can bind objects to his soul, making the bound item materialize and disappear at will. He also has the power to manipulate the air around him to a certain extent. He can compress and expand air, creating effects similar to shockwaves, as well as intense gusts of wind, creating currents of wind that can cut like a blade.
Bio: Being brought up in quite a wealthy family, Kris spent the early years of his life enjoying many of the finer things in life. It was at one of his fathers' auctions, at the age of ten, that he first realized that he had a gift. He had sneaked into the room that contained the antiques and artifacts, where one piece had caught his attention. It was a beautifuly restored Persian saber.The craftsmanship was breath taking, and the blade very sharp as Kris discovered. While running his hands along the artifact, he nicked his finger on the blade and it immediatly started to bleed. The cut wasn't too deep but he could also see that a drop of blood was running down the curve of the sword. he took a cloth to wipe away the blood and when he touched the sword, there was a quick flash of light and a searing pain in Kris' chest. The next thing he knew he was laying in a hospital bed, two days later. After being discharged from the hospital, he started to figure out how to summon and dissmiss the sword.
Years later, after graduating high school, he was attacked by a group of teens one night while coming back from work. He tried to fend them off, but they were too many. He ended up getting knocked unconscious by a heavy hit from a baseball bat. The muggers took off with the money in his wallet and left Kris to die. But he didn't, he woke up a few hours later, with a massive head ache and a gaping hole in his memory. The only thing he remembered was his name.
A few weeks after that, he re-aquainted himself with his power and also discovered that he could affect the air around him. He was forced to become a hired thief to make his living. It was on a job that he discovered he could manipulate air. After having stolen a particular object, he was being chased down by its owner. he turned down an alley to try and escape but found himself at a cul-de-sac. the only way out was through a fire esacape, but the ladder was way out of reach. he tried desperatly to jump up to it, and on one such leap, he willed himself to go higher and to his surprise, he felt as if the air around him was pushing him up. he reached the ladder and escaped.
Now, about two years later, he enjoys a decent life with the money he accumulated and still takes jobs as a thief, but not as often. He has tried to develop his new power but was only able to use it to augment his jumping capabilities.He still cannot fully control it but keeps practicing.

Kris had spent most of the day sleeping and so was not made aware of most of the activities happening outside his very small apartment. It wasn't until the late afternoon that he woke up from the noise of a thunderstorm. He groggily got out of bed and turned on a small television. The news networks were all talking about some strange occurrences around the city. An explosion near a construction site and an alley that also seemed to have been the site of another sort of explosion. Strange, I wonder what's gotten into people these days...
He dressed himself in loose fitting black jeans and a grey t-shirt, shrugging into his favorite leather jacket and tying his hair back before walking out of his apartment. The apartment opened in an alley,this made it easy for him to enter and exit with little notice, a great asset when on the job. After reaching the street, he noticed that the lightening and thunder he had heard just moments before were gone, and the sky was relatively clear. The only place where clouds unnaturally hung was above an apartment building quite a distance away. Another strange happening.
As he was staring at the sky, he was violently pushed to the side, after finding his balance he was able to see the man who had jostled him. The other seemed to be moving quite rapidly, pushing others aside, heading towards the building with the cloud suspended above it. Kris decided to follow the man that was wearing a hockey mask, strangely enough, and stay a decent distance away.
Kris saw another person confront, who he decided to call, Hockey Man.
"Who do you think you are? Another jumped up sociopath, glorying in his new powers? Save me the whole "I'm invincible" monologue. You may find your new tricks aren't as good as you think against anything of real calibre"
The mention of powers got Kris to move closer to the two of them. Was it truly possible that others had gifts just like himself? Kris stood behind the hockey man at a safe distance, ready to use his power at a moments notice. The slim newcomer spoke as if he too had some power, if this was true than this situation could become hazardous. He waited for Hockey Man's response, eyeing the both of them.
Wow long post, sorry about that lol
