Character
Personality: (How you character behaves, social tendencies, quirks, etc.) Bear has a need to be accepted, he doesnt like the fact that he's a mutant but as he continues to live his life, he's realizing that he'll never be fully accepted by anyone. He's a friendly guy for the most part but, obviously, that's more of just a front for his lonely existence. He hasnt felt 'normal' since his power began to manifest and he doesnt like it one bit.
Hobbies/ Interests: Video games, getting in fights, the Occult, sword collecting.
Job or part time job and description: (if applicable) Jobs can be established later through in character RPing. If you plan on working at the mansion it will have to be approved.
Fears/ phobias/ concerns: Not having control and being found out and hunted are two big fears of his. But his biggest and most secretive fear is not wanting to ever be normal again despite hating being abnormal.
Special talents: Knows how to weild a sword.
Morality
Good/ bad/ neutral/ other: (please explain) Neutral Good, Bear is a good person but he doesnt really hold any solid allegiances to anything or anyone. He'll fight just because he wants to or he'll fight for a cause, it all depends on his mood that day.
Mutations
Mutation description: Bear has the ability to block out pain and turn it into physical attributes, helping him to get stronger and more durable. With this power, Bear also feels no pain after the process has started but continues to get stronger. Pain causes Bear's ability to begin but as soon as his adrenaline level lowers, after a fight, he can feel the pain again.
Strengths: Added physical endurance and strength, no pain felt when fighting.
Weaknesses: His physical attributes only increase from physical pain/damage to his body, also, he feels no pain during the fight. Thusly causing a problem in and of itself because when he goes back to normal, the damage is already done and he could very well die. Also, another obvious downside is simply that it takes physical pain for Bear’s ability to even begin to manifest.
Secondary mutation description: (if applicable) This mutation should be linked or make sense with your first mutation. You don't need a second mutation, but you can develop one later on with moderator approval.
Strengths:
Weaknesses:
Fighting Style (if applicable) Street/Power
Explanation: Bear's fighting style is basically not a style.
Pros for fighting style: Can adapt to any kind of fight
Cons for fighting style: No specific form and will get beat in a skill vs skill fight if powers are negated

The X-men/ The Order/ The Kabal/ Other/ Unaffiliated: Unaffiliated All new characters start as unaffiliated. Joining a faction can be established through in character RPing. You don't ever need to be affiliated with one of the factions.
History Of Your Character:
Bear grew up, known to his friends and family as Max, he only developed the nickname 'Bear' later in life. As he was a child, growing up in Vancouver, BC, Canada, he had a fairly simple life. Playing outside with his best friend at the time, Aris Callin. They did everything together from exploring any nearby stream or strange place to just hanging out and watching TV or movies or playing videogames. Bear didnt discover his abilities until halfway through High School at about the age of 15, he got into a fight one day when Aris was being harrassed by a group of school bullies. He, being her close friend, decided enough was enough and walked in, trying to stop the onslaught of terms. The bullies, being bullies, turned their attention to Bear, pushing him and telling him to mind his own business, out of haste and instinct, Bear swung hard for the jaw of one of the kids, the kid laughed and a beatdown ensued. Aris tried to get in to stop the fight but she was pushed back hard by one of the boys and ran off as fast as possible to find someone to help her friend.
At this point, Bear kicked at one of the boys and sent him flying backwards, unknowing of the pain he should be feeling or the reason he's so strong, Bear swung hard again, hitting the same kid in the jaw, and toppling him like a house of cards. The fight didnt last long with Bear easily disposing of the 4 bullies who were previously harrassing his best friend. Fights end, Bear stood up, blood running from his nose and various cuts on his body, not feeling any pain and not wanting to get in trouble for the fight that just took place. As he stepped to run away from the devastation, his body suddenly rushed with pain and immobilization, causing him to drop to the ground in agony, not knowing what was going on. By the time Aris had gotten to where the fight took place, and where now was filled with devastation, all her and her help found was 5 bodies on the ground and only one beaten and bloody. A gasp escaped her lips and she ran to the aid of her friend who was shaking from the pain he was feeling and comforted him like a good friend would while paramedics were being called.
After that moment, Bear had a weird feeling that something was wrong with him and he decided to try to figure out what... So he went about finding out what it was, one day while stewing over the subject for hours in his room by himself. Bear, upset, slammed his fist into the wall, not making a dent in it's paint covered sheetrock. The pain shot through his hand for a moment before dispersing quickly, Bear punched the wall again and this time very little pain was felt. He thought on this for a moment before punching the wall as hard as he could, and where typically his hand would be throbbing and he would be in a great deal of pain, he felt nothing despite having put a hole in the wall itself. After a few minutes passed, his hand was suddenly enflamed from the previous punches and he decided he needed to test this out even further. Test after test, eventually Bear realized that pain caused him to get stronger and he could block out said pain after a certain point, allowing him to continue as long as his adrenaline was pumping.
After his discovery and his further examining of this ability, Bear went directly to Aris and told her what he found out, at first she seemed to not know what to think but after a while, she began to believe him for some reason. The two continued to be inseperable throughout High School, Bear had the one person in his world that he knew wouldnt think he was crazy and Aris, well, he didnt know why Aris stuck with him. After High School, Aris and Bear remained friends and kept in touch and hung out as much as they could before the incident with her sister. After that point, she ran away from home and Bear lost contact with her for a while, until one day he got an odd phone call from her, letting him know she was alright, the two discussed things for a bit and Bear found out his long time friend was just like him, a freak(in his mind). Time went on, the two kept in contact as much as they could with Bear simply living a "normal" life in Canada. His nickname was given to him by a coworker of his at a Gas Station when he was 20. After a while, he got tired of being alone, like he usually was, and decided he should go and find Aris in New York City. With no plans and enough money to get to New York and surive for a month or so, Bear packed his bags and any important belonging he had and could carry, and moved to New York City.
Roleplay
Where did you learn about this site?: Aris Callin
Do you have any other existing characters, if so who: No
Sample RP:
"Where the heck is she? I've looked everywhere for her... Maybe I should just let her find me..." A tall man sighs lightly as he trudges through the alleys in New York City, he wears a long Black Trench Coat, blue jeans and a plain white T-Shirt. Hands in his pockets, the man slowly emerges from the Alleyway and walks out onto a busy sidewalk in the middle of the day. Another sigh escapes his lips as he walks down the sidewalk, spotting a Liquor store and walking in slowly, the man behind the counter eyes him suspiciously as he walks around to the area where the liquid refreshment was kept. As Bear was trying to decide what to get to drink, a voice echoes into his ears from the front of the store.
"Gimme all your money!" Bear turns around quickly to see a man holding a knife at the cashier behind the counter. Bear sighs again and grabs a bottle of Mountain Dew from the cooler and walks up to the front.
"How much for this?" Bear holds out the soda.
"Man, you got a deathwish?" The guy spins around, holding the knife up to Bear.
"No, I just want to buy this soda.. Now, how much?" Bear looks past the knife wielding man to the cashier who doesnt answer. "So... I can just walk out with this soda without paying? Is that what you're telling me?"
"Man, just get the hell out of here!"
"Hey, I'm trying to ask the man a question, this is his store, not yours..." Bear growls lightly with his words before turning back to the cashier waiting for an answer.
"Screw this!" The knife wielder quickly cocks back a fist and punches Bear in the jaw hard. Bear's head shoots back and he rubs his jaw in agony as he feels himself getting stronger.
"Dont do that..." Bear rubs his jaw a bit more while looking at the attempted robber with disdain.
"What? This?" The robber swings again, hitting Bear again in the jaw and Bear rubs his jaw lightly, the pain dulled now as his strength grows moreso.
"You stupid piece of crap..." Bear growls lightly. The robber laughs in his face and stabs him in the arm, trying to scare him off but Bear doesnt budge, his body blocking out the pain as he grabs the man by the throat and lifts him off his feet with ease. Bear then tosses the man out of the store and turns back to the cashier, "How much?"
"Just take it and go..." The cashier frantically ducks under the counter.
"Fine whatever..." Bear tosses two dollars down on the counter and walks out of the door, as the robber backs up away from him frightened before jumping up and taking off as fast as he can. Please use the character you're applying for, not a character from another site.
