Age: 19
Birthday: July 21
Gender: Male
Orientation: Straight
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Where are you from: Camden, New Jersey
Current living location: Troy Alabama
Blood Type: O+
Relationship Status: None
Personality: Beneath his rough and scarred exterior, and his lax gaze that seems to try and see all that it can Revi is more of a fun loving guy then anything. He has no friends really, and does what he needs to do by himself, and though this makes him feel a bit depressed on the inside he just buries it deep within him knowing that it can change eventually.
Though he has a want for friends he can never seem to get or keep any due to his ill temper where he tends to easily go off on people. Though it is only on certain things like when people try picking on others, or if he see's something he feels is wrong while walking around.
He is naturally distant from people due to past experiences and memories that only haunt his dreams. Such hatred for mankind for the acts he had seen, but due to his slight god complex he also loves man he wants to help and this ultimately leaves him as a chaotic neutral, or a ticking time bomb that will wind up saving many or ending many lives.

~Powers~
(If user)
Powers:
BioKinesis-
Revi is a biokinetic, though this is only something he can apply to himself in practice, well so far. See Revi is able to tinker with his genetics, and body structure on his own whim and concentration. However this is a double edged sword for if he wants to return to previous biological settings he would need to remember how he was mapped out.
Things Revi can do are being able to change his genetic make up and allow his body's muscles to tap into more of their potential or if he ever felt like risking himself completely being destroyed tinker with his brains makeup.
Revi has also been able to creat material from his body's own elements like weapons of bone, as well as he has learned to get his body to a near superhuman status of regeneration and strength, though speed is higher then your professional athlete's it is not where he would like it.
State of Control:
The control he has over his powers is excellent, but not perfect as it still tolls him a lot to heal and do massive reformations of his skeletal structure, as well as allowing his muscles to use more of their potential then would be wise.
Rules Of Your Power:
Revi can change from his body what he pleases, but he cannot go back to how it was before if he doesnt draw it out in some way for memory. He also risks alot if he tinkers with his brain, for example he had a big test in math senior year, and tried to mess with his brain, and forgot all his mathematical skills. Due to things like that he will not mess with his brain's makeup in fear he will lose what makes him himself..

History:
If you looked at this man sitting on a porch of a broken down house that was left in the remains of a terramancer's outburst. You would think him unkempt, and possibly a bum if it had not been for the fact that he still showered and had changes of clothes. This abandoned town now his home would make one wonder what would make a man want to live in these ruins left in his apparent solitude.
You see Revi was born to a family of Russian immigrants who had moved to America for a new beginning. Revi was the youngest sibling only having an older sister to rival with. His family was of normal economic status not really wealthy but not out on the streets, and his life as a child was simple for the most part. He lived happily the way a child should, going to school, both parents around to help him, and a sibling to play with.
Life would go like this as he grew, picking up sports and things of the such, but he also began to develop violent tenancies. Trips to the principals office slowly became a weekly ordeal, and they kept going through middle school. Some reason Revi was just wanting to slam on people, but it wasnt out of anger he had found some sense of happiness in the fleeting moments of each fight, but middle school was not so tolerant of him. Revi was left with two choices, which where to stop his fighting, or to go to juvi. Revi picked an alternative he simply would wander about out of school looking for those who where itching like him.
Turned out those where usually those who roamed in packs, or gangs and it would turn to trouble more times then not for him, but he still loved it. Coming home bruised, bloody, or both he would always laugh as mother or father questioned him. They would later talk about it in private father saying it was just a phase as a boy, but mother saying it was just dangerous. His older sister never payed much mind to him or his actions feeling it was just going to cause her trouble to be involved with his sort.
Revi eventually moved onto high school where the bigger fish had been, but these ones had sharper teeth to. But he was not the smartest when it had come to acknowledging the difference between him and them. The difference being that he did it for the fun of it, and they had done it out of their own sadistic desires, even carrying knives for added pleasure, and guns out of insecurity.
It would be these sorts that he seeked, and wanted to fight, and those sorts would seek him out to have him join their numbers. Revi was a lonesome guy though not wanting to follow with someone he saw weaker as an individual then him.
As it turned out one night on his sophomore year first quarter, summer just ended. Revi wandered the streets of the town bundled up breath visible on the air, and lately his body had been feeling weird, and not in the sense of puberty. He believed it a hallucination when he would go to lift some weights above his max he would urge his body and it would respond somehow lifting the weight.
So here Revi was wandering, and he somehow got onto the turf of one of the guys from another school. He was a tall lanky kind of guy narrow dark eyes, and he had a few others that roamed with him. Revi simply grinned when he found them staring him down, and then rushed in head long. Last moment as he jumped it felt as if a hammer hit him stopping his fist dead in the air of its downward trail to punch one of the fellows in the head. Revi stopped with it, and then dropped as he gasped. Burning pain in the chest, and light headedness began to take him. The group flipped as they looked to their apparent leader with a smoking barrel pointed now to the ground and a deranged look on his face. He simply looked on as he said how he thought the safety was on and that he was just going to scare him. Revi coughed a bit though as his hands covered the wound each second felt an hour as his heart being ruptured from the bullet began to slow, and Revi muttered out how his body just needed to push the bullet out and heal itself. This was the first moment he felt fear such a strong and paining fear, but he felt warmth begin to creep through his spine where the cold grip of death had began to hold him. Sure enough he managed to tap into the powers that where barely awoken within him.
Revi managed to not be found out though since the boys had all fled believing him dead, and he would leave it that way. He was still scared though unsure how it had happened he wished it of his body and it happened.
Revi would soon after begin to train himself in this ability of his never wanting to call it a power since he said you can always turn the power to something off, and this seemed to have a constant flow. Always a anatomy book with him reading it whenever he got curious of something on his body and how it worked, and what its flaws may have been. Always tapping into more potential for himself as well, and soon developing a god complex, as he found that if he thought it he could manage to change his facial structure to that of another, but he always kept his own facial image fresh in his mind to go back right after.
Though all the toying with his abilities was fun for him Revi was now a senior, and a failing senior at that, but he banked on finals, and one of them was his math final. He was never good at math so he figured he would try and manipulate his mind to give it the greater genius for math, but somewhere along the lines he had managed to erase all his mathematical knowledge.
It was also this year that he would find out his sister was like him, but her ability was a little different she could see the future, but never her own only those around her, and he would learn from talking with her that it was this that kept her far from him always scared of what she saw in him was what she said. They talked a long time about it, how he was always in pain in the future by choices, and by loss, of what she didnt know. It was this that had set one thing in motion for Revi fear, the fear of action and change. He simply shuddered from this thought since he had heard much on the news of people like him being locked away, but he was god how could he have had fear. He never understood god was supposed to be omnipotent even though all man was created in his image, and Revi could take the image of all man if he tried.
Revi would soon face a fact at the end of the year that he was not going to graduate, but he didn't care his mind still fixed on the future. He was so distracted that he never even saw what would hit him next. People where on a witch hunt, and somehow his sister was caught in it all as she saw a child being tormented for having abilities, and she tried to defend him. She would be hung for this coupled with her confession of being like him, and that sunk into Revi hard. Enough so that he would be inspired by his sister to want to protect others, but also fueled with hate that his mind would lock within that choice. Sure enough in all this turmoil it provoked others, and war seemed to be out, but Revi wanted none of it.
Even fighting didn't help him, but he did move over the course of a year, he had managed to fight his way to Alabama a small town that no one would go to, and it had utility though it was in ruins. Now he sits there in a tug of war type situation as his mind races on what to do.
