TWENTY-ONE 5'10"/130lbs | MALE STUDENT - FRESHMAN |
[attr="class","appinfo"]
[attr="class","appbold"]PERSONALITY:
- Despite seeming quite shy or standoffish at first, Parker is actually very friendly. He has trouble inserting himself in everyday social interactions with strangers because he finds small-talk to be absolutely boring and pointless; he'd much rather take an observational, almost strategical, approach to a conversation. He hates the sensation of loneliness, and likes to surround himself with as many people as possible. He tends to be rather social when he's feeling down, quite the opposite of the typical reclusive nature others exemplify when depressed.
Parker has an incredibly short fuse; angering him is fairly simple thanks to his impatience for most things, from traffic to what he perceives to be a lack of common sense or stupidity. He also has a lot of trouble accepting ignorance and will be ready and willing to force his (unsolicited) thoughts and feelings on others, making him seem incredibly opinionated and generally unsatisfied with life. Despite his lack of patience for others, working and talking to people is what Parker gets a charge out of more than anything else, especially when it comes to offering a helping hand. As a people-pleaser, Parker will go out of his way to help just about anyone who he feels he can trust, though this occasionally has very disastrous results as he can be quite naive and is easily taken advantage of for his superb work ethic and apparent attention-starved desire to be appreciated. An overall likable person, though he can be a bit clingy.

[attr="class","appbold"]HISTORY:
- Parker grew up in a small metro city in the south where supers were uncommon, almost unheard of. Being from a largely powerless family in a seemingly powerless city, Parker was always terrified to reveal his powers to others. His abilities could have easily been taken advantage of by any number of people, ranging from police to criminals to even his own friends and family, given the nature of his powers. Though he felt average in every way but one in comparison to his two brothers, star athletes and successful family-men, he kept his abilities as quiet as possible to avoid unnecessary attention. He secluded himself from his parents, his brothers, and even many of his friends in order to keep them from finding out, and as a result grew quite lonely.
One night, while working alone at his dead-end job, a man in a ski mask held him at gun-point. Terrified, Parker lost control of his abilities and used his powers in public for the first time. Thwarting the man's efforts, in part due to his confusion and terror and in part because he'd launched a razor-sharp icicle at the man's gun-hand, Parker was recognized as a hero city-wide, the city's first, in fact, but stopping petty crime wasn't enough for him; Parker sought to improve on his powers, and after researching supers and how they grew as heroes he found himself at Vireximus University. Though a few years behind, he enrolled immediately in hopes of learning to better handle his abilities.

[attr="class","appbold"]POWERS:
- PRIMARY POWER: TIMESTOP: Parker possesses the ability to completely stop time for a brief moment, but only for inorganic material. Stopping time for people, animals, plants, anything with detectable life-force will temporally displace it and ruin time's design. While a seemingly useless ability, it has proven more than capable of scaring plenty of unsuspecting criminals and has made unlikely weapons of the most ordinary objects by freezing them in mid-air and resuming time's flow when his foes were strategically lined-up with their trajectory. He's caught numerous criminals off-guard by using common household items, from ink pens (thrown like a projectile) to glass cleaner (used to blind or poison his foe) using this method.
He's lost the ability to accurately sense the flow of time through this ability, however, and now has no concept of natural time. He sleeps at peculiar hours, thinks it's normal to perform every-day tasks like mowing the lawn or grocery shopping at 3 AM, and he isn't even sure how long minutes or hours, even days, are anymore. - SECONDARY POWER: Minor control over water particles; this is perhaps related to his ability to "freeze" time, as his most common use of the technique is freezing it solid and creating anything from daggers to simple ice cubes. It has less practical crime-fighting uses, too, like making nifty ice sculptures for parties!
