[attr="class","appbold"]PERSONALITY:
- frankly, it'd be doing julio a disservice to describe his typical social interaction anything but theatrical. with a flair for the dramatic, a booming, impassioned voice combined with antiquated vocabulary extending far, far into the territory of sesquipedalian loquaciousness at times, julio - or as he'd insist in third person, vegas - is a man whose superhero alias may as well as be bravado.
it's that hot-blooded nature - fiery as the depths of hell themselves, he'd add, forged in the passion of youth - that makes julio julio. it's combined with a remarkably positive attitude that's optimistic to extreme. to him, the glass isn't just half full. it's a gorgeous glass only a dashingly small quantity away to fulfilling its true destiny. to be honest, it's not unsurprising that people find him high-maintenance and too full-on for them. interacting with “vegas” can be tiring, if not baffling, given his insistence on being so loud and sensationalised.
he's genuinely upbeat, though, and intensely into giving it his all. beyond that, julio's a very inquisitive person and takes to new experiences enthusiastically. he wouldn't get why someone isn't experimental because, god forgive me for typing this, #YOLO, right? however, despite an honestly curious and welcoming nature, he shows little awareness of his own limits, pretty keen on thinking he's an invincible force. an all or nothing approach to his life leaves him to be prone to burning out which can make him, well, unreliably unreliable.
despite his large personality, julio makes efforts to be supportive. he's a lot more sensitive then some people would give him credit for and is pretty conscious of being overbearing. the fact is he keeps up with it a lot of the time because, well it's him, but he retreats into it other times. julio can be evasive and frankly dishonest by keeping up with it like everything's fine a lot. it tends to flare up when he feels out of his depth and as we know julio is terrible at gauging that. if you think it's hard to find an off-button to julio's theatrics before, it's impossible once he's panicked. it's like talking to a brick wall - a large ham of a brick wall in total denial that anything's wrong.

[attr="class","appbold"]HISTORY:
- behold!! born and raised in the suburbs of las vegas, nevada, julio considers himself fully-fledged superhero fanatic. he keeps it no secret that he's already had a go at superheroing before attending vireximus university - frankly, he appears to make little differentiation between himself and his superhero alias “vegas”. beyond that, for a superhero fan he's cautious of, if not quite suspicious, of vu and the sponsor companies. however, following a few tricky superhero attempts and after his dad's house was vandalised, he's resigned himself to the next four years at vireximus.
power wise, julio was an early bloomer; his superpowers had already made themselves known before he was out of kindergarden. it meant he proved quite a handful to raise for his dad growing up but, otherwise, julio's fixation on superheroes tended to prove distracting enough to the kid. albeit, inspired by them his forays into superheroing didn't just start in his late high school years. his first few attempts started at fourteen and landed julio in juvenile detention for six months on charges of assault and battery.
motivationally, a big reason for julio's presence at the university is his dad. to be quite honest there's a ton of familial love goin' on there. any test score that's relatively good gets at least eight pictures 4 different filters all sent to his dad okay.

[attr="class","appbold"]POWERS:
- DERMAL ARMOUR: julio is capable of spawning physical chitin armour as an extended part of his body; this dermal armour can defend against physical attacks. specifically, the resistance to blows and cutting attacks but is definitely not bulletproof or resistant to fire. he is capable of shedding it and once it's no longer attached to his body, it doesn't take long to disintegrate. beyond that, it's produced by his own body so continuous use of this power leaves him weak and fatigued, if not exhausted and incapable of generation his armour anymore. these effects can last several days after extended use and often require a lot of food - mostly protein - to regain typical energy levels. as of now, he's only able to generate certain bits and pieces of armour across his body as opposed to a full body armour. no doubt he lacks the finesse to do so and, besides, the armour would no limit his movement immensely.
