Procrastinating Perfectionist
Name
Nikolaus Kirchner
Age
16
Sexuality
Heterosexual
Powers
Invisibility - Nikolaus has the ability to make himself invisible to the human eye. He can also make other people and items invisible, as long as he holds physical contact.
Shield - As usually accompanies the power of invisibility, Nikolaus can also create plasma-like force fields, in any size or shape. With a good amount of practice and concentration, he can also create horizontal shields, stand on them, and then manipulate them to fly himself around.
Weaknesses
Pacifist - Nikolaus does not enjoy fighting, and would much rather prefer playing defense on the sidelines. He is not particularly good at any kind of combat, and will succumb to enemies easily.
Energy - Nikolaus cannot stay invisible or keep his shields up forever, and he can become exhausted if he overuses his abilities.
Physicality - Although he can disappear from sight, Nikolaus cannot actually physically disappear, meaning that a person can still bump or run into him while he is invisible. He is also able to be tracked by heat sensors, etc, when using his ability.
Dogs - Nikolaus has a fear of dogs, no matter the size, as they are able to find him when no one else can. Also, they're loud.
Personality
Nikolaus is very shy and quiet, and his worst fear is confrontation. He gets nervous around other people, and is very submissive. He enjoys reading and writing poetry, as well as singing (as long as no one is around). As he is German, he is very self conscious when in conversation, as he is worried he or the other person will say something they don't understand. He is very caring of others, and will always try to help when he can, and while he is wary of some people, he has a hard time saying no and will often go along with the crowd. He is fascinated by the powers of others and thinks of his own as mostly useless or boring.
Bio
Nikolaus was born in Bremen, Germany, to a mother, father, and two older brothers. As the youngest (and quietest) in his family, he was often considered "the other brother" and didn't get very recognized by his peers. Nikolaus kept to himself for most of his early life, and recognized his mutant abilities fairly early on. While he didn't like to, he often found himself using his invisibility to avoid conversations and people that frightened him.
When he was fifteen years old, he and his family moved to America for a better job, and it was then that Nikolaus heard about the riots and protests against mutants, and the Mutant Academy. Deducing that he must have been a mutant himself, he told his parents, who were of course shocked that this ability had somehow gone unnoticed.
After hearing Nikolaus' request to attend the Academy, his parents agreed, but not before getting him to promise that he would at least try to talk to and make friends with other people. After all, they were all mutants; they already have something in common!
Other
Because he has recently moved to America, while he can speak fairly good English, Nikolaus has an accent, his sentences will sometimes be broken, and occasionally he will slip a German word into the conversation without realizing it.
