Complications
Motivation:Bored as hell
Wesley is so supremely, overly bored with life and everything it has to offer. He wants to feel the rush of an intense fight, the thrill of scoring a tangible victory. Maybe using these new (To the perspective of others) powers, he'll finally find a way to quench his lifelong apathy...
Quirk:All the time in the world
He's never been that prone to doing literally anything in his life, always putting things off to the last second. Now that he has his power over time, it's even more tempting to just take weeks off at a time not doing anything productive what-so-ever. It's not unlikely for him to completely forget what he was doing before slowing down time, and loose track of his goals if he had any in the first place.
Secret:The black sheep
The Dulls are actually an old wealthy family who trace their success to several textile innovations in the 1800's, which helped kicked off the Dull Corporation. The youngest son of it's current CEO, Wesley has become ostracized in the face of his much more ambitious and hard working older siblings. He receives a monthly stipend of cash to help him, but his family has repeatedly threatened to cut him off if he doesn't start doing something more then playing games.

-------------------------------------
"My Life", By Wesley Dull:
Yeah, look, I can't really be bothered to go through my whole life story here, so I'll just give you the jist. My parents are rich as balls, decided to have a bunch of kids, and ended with me. They decided sending me to a Canadian university would be a good idea, make me "shape up" and "Get a real job" or whatever.

Yeah, that obviously worked out great. They send me money every month for books and to pay rent, but pretty much all of it just goes into my sweet rig at home. So w hat if I don't get top marks in class, not like it really mattered or anything. One of these days they're going to send my sister or someone to bring me back home so I won't have to bother with this crap.

But so what if they don't? Who cares.

At some point though I got these really weird powers, time just comes to a standstill. It's actually pretty awesome. I can take a break whenever I want and nobody can stop me. Doesn't last forever, time always goes back to normal eventually. Which I may or may not notice too late.

Alright fine, I'm pretty terrible at keeping time. But you'd be awful at it too if you had powers like this! God though, it can all get really boring really fast. Yeah, I can get to like... the other side of town in three seconds, but I have to walk the entire damn way. You think I'm moving really fast, when all of you are just moving super slow. I'd kill for it to just be a pure speed thing, but it just had to be complicated didn't it?

I've been thinking about using my powers do actually do something in a twist of faith, maybe try and save some kids or something. Stop some criminals from doing messed up crap, confront a bully or two while they can't do anything to me. But why should I bother with that now?

I got all the time in the world.

GAUSS
Name: Erich Merlin Maxwell
Nickname: "Max"

Personality:
Max was and has always been a quiet and introspective sort. A thinker before a doer, Max has a habit of overanalyzing things, and can sometimes read “too much” into a situation he’s in, especially with other people. Something of a self-proclaimed cynic, Max really is more like an adorable teddy bear who says caustic things. On the other hand, he’s got a nasty temper, but getting him to that point is a great deal of work on it’s own. Still, despite his myriad assortment of character quirks, he’s got a strong moral core,

Physical Description:
Erich Maxwell stands at the slightly above average height of around 6 feet, give or take, with a rather trim build. He is generally clad in comfortable clothing with a preference for darker shades and hues. Handsome, even when he’s not trying to be presentable, Max has dark black hair and his eyes are a hint of grey or gold. He’s been noticing a few strands of his hair have been slowly turning silver since he discovered his abilities, but since it’s contained to a few locks, he’s been pretending they’re dyed - a reasonable assumption he allows them to believe.

Abilities: 38
Strength 1, Stamina 4, Agility 1, Dexterity 1, Fighting 2, Intellect 5, Awareness 2, Presence 3

Skills: 21
Athletics (+1), Deception 3 (+6), Expertise: Science 5 (+10), Insight 5 (+7), Intimidation 9 (+12), Perception 5 (+7), Persuasion 3 (+6), Ranged Combat: Magnetic Control 6 (+7), Stealth (+1), Technology 6 (+11)

Personal Magnetic Field:
. . Magnetic Shield: Force Field 10

Defenses: 21
Toughness 14, Dodge 6, Parry 6, Fortitude 7, Will 11

Abilities 38 + Skills 21 + Advantages 3 + Powers 67 + Defenses 21 = 150 PP

Complications:
Motivation: Justice His morality may be a bit strange, but Max still believes in right over wrong. How that’s defined, on the other hand, is usually subject to debate. But despite the shades of grey, Max still holds to his principles.
Quirk Max’s got a bit of psychic resistance as a side effect of his abilities. While not uncommon for magnetic controllers, for some reason, his results in anyone intruding in his mind somehow finding it’s filled with music. Specifically, “Sirius” by The Alan Parsons Project. Don’t ask...
Secret Given the nature of super-powers, Max is still keeping his under relative wraps. It wouldn't do to alert everyone that he's got control over a fundamental force of nature because that's just asking for the government to try and take you in to a lab and start secret experiments or lock you up for extensive study.

Background
"What's my story? Not much to tell really. My dad was one of those international-business-types. Travel the world, stay in a different country for a few months before moving onto the next. Never really figured out what his job actually was, but that never mattered to me. What mattered was that I didn't really enjoy having to try and set down roots someplace only to get up and move again, start all over. Never fun, that.

"Suffice to say, I didn't have any real friends. Everyone I knew, I didn't know long. Promises to keep in contact never really panned out that well. Times changed, people changed. That sort of thing. So when my folks finally settled down for a few years and I could actually have a life, I quickly learned that trying to settle into a new town where everyone's already known each other for, like, forever, was a lot harder than it looked. Especially if you're kinda antisocial and quiet. And if you wrecked the grading curve the week after you transfer in. And trip and splatter your lunch all over the campus queen. Right after you tick off the head jock and say unflattering things about him when his best friend was listening.

"Yeah. Not fun.

"So, bullies were a problem. Always were a problem, but back when I was a globe-trotting little boy, I could just run to the nearest teacher, and start crying. I was the new foreign kid, and the other boys were picking on me. That doesn't really work once you start puberty, and the bullies can tease you for being a wuss. Nothing wrong with being a wuss, just that the torment was more annoying than it really was worth. Especially when bullies get creative and mean. I really don't think I need to go into details there.

"But then I found out I had superpowers. I mean, one day I get tripped in the cafeteria by some jerk, accidentally fall on this girl and pull her down with me, then get hauled off to the Dean for feeling her up. In my defense, I was just trying to push myself off the ground. None of this was my fault, but when word gets out to her boyfriend, well, things got ugly. Next few days, I'm dodging goons, until they corner me behind the track. After getting wailed on, I just curled myself into a ball, and tried to wait it out. Then a chain-link fence falls on everyone, knocking them all out. Somehow, I'm the only one who manages to pull himself out from under there. Heck, posts were ripped out in everything. I didn't stick around long enough to figure out why.

"Next morning, I wake up, bruises healed pretty quickly, and I do a double-take in the mirror, because I looked better than I had in ages. I looked amazing. I mean, my features seemed sharper, I looked a touch more handsome. I felt handsome. Felt good. Gave me confidence.

"Wonderful thing, confidence. Next morning, I just stared my bullies down, and they backed off. Turns out, when the local nerd does a 180 in the looks department and grows a backbone over night, people talk. Soon after, no one really bothered me. Which was alright, really, as it gave me time to figure out what those weird forces I could feel around me were, and why my keys would jump to my hand, doorknobs vibrating under my hand, and all sorts of weird things. On the upside, I was a science-geek. Didn't take too long to figure it all out. I was a mutant, with power over electromagnetism.

"So, with a little guess-work and a good deal of practice when no one was watching, I honed my powers, and got really good. Now I'm in Toronto for my bachelor's, and, well, the rest isn't really that interesting..."

Here my application. Spirit bound psychology student.

Jessica 'Jessie' Weaver


Jessie never knew her real parents. She was found abandoned, outside a hospital no more than a few weeks old. Most of her early life was spent shuffling from one foster home to another, despite the best effects of those trying to help her, it was a depressing lonely time, until she was adopted by the Weavers at the age of 12. Life from that point on was fairly normal, loving parents, school, friends etc, abandonment issues and therapy not withstanding.
It has been Jessie's ambition to become a social worker or a councillor, her wish to help kids who'd been like her, lost and confused or angry. So she decided to study psychology and was accepted into the University of Toronto.

Then the dreams started. Dreams about a pair of creatures, one born of Fire, the other of ice and cold, two elemental forces in conflict. Ever night for months she would dream of them. At first her dreams were about them in deep debate about something she could not understand, then they began to show the creatures arguing fiercely, until eventually she would fall asleep to find them locked in furious combat.

Every night she would simply watch their conflict as it escalated, until one night, in her dreams, she brought herself between the two forces, interceding into their combat and forcing them apart. When she awoke the next morning, the back of both her hands bore a mark. On her right, a red symbol full of swirls and waves, on her left, blue, full of hard lines and jagged edges. She could also tell that she was not alone.

She still dreams of the creatures, though not every night, but they come to her, sometime together, sometimes one at a time. They spoke to her, pledged their loyalty, and taught her how she could tap into their power. She doesn't know where they came from or how they came to be bound to her. She's asked the entities, but either they don't know, or they simply will not tell her. She can't help but wonder if there is a connection between these spirits and her mysterious parentage.

Complications:

Motivation (Responsibility): Jessie has no wish to be a hero, but she is not the kind of person to stand by when she can do something to help people.

Unknown Origins: Raised as an orphan, Jessie has no knowledge of her parents or where she came from, though she suspects the powers she now possesses are linked somehow to her origins.

Opposing Forces: The Walker and the Wyrm, while united in their loyalty to their host, do not get along and are opposed. This can occasionally cause conflicts while Jessie is trying to draw power from both spirits at once or if they have both been summoned to the same field.

Hearing Voices: The Walker and the Wyrm speak to her. As primal elemental beings, the concept of morality, right & wrong are not something they really understand. They are more concerned with things like survival, power, the fulfilment of needs and the thrill of conflict.
