FLINT (THE SHIELD)

General:

Alias: The Shield

ID Number: 4404207364081

Gender:

Age: 18

Status Freak

Agent: No

Occupation: Generation Xb

Appearance: Flint stands roughly around six feet and has a slim but muscular build. His strength is nothing in comparison to a 'real man', but he spends much of his time pushing himself to work out as best as he can between experiments and recovery time. His freak ability aids his quick recovery and enables him to work his body. His skin is marred by needle and scalpel marks and he can point to nearly each one and recount where it came from. Other than the bumps and scars concealed beneath his clothing, the boy's features are smooth and fair. He keeps his sandy hair meticulously styled despising the 'patient' look. When he's not undergoing treatment, the boy wears a pair of spectacles, the blue frames enhancing his viridescent gaze.

Your Alias: Time Lapse

Personal Characteristics:

At first the scientists suspected Flint was 'thick skinned' when they discovered their needles could no longer prick him. It was only when the boy began to generate small force fields he labeled as a 'freak'. Even Flint himself who loves to pick things apart and analyze how they work, cannot fully comprehend his own ability. Not only has his body become more durable to treatment, he's able to generate small translucent force fields. When his attempts to cast these fields onto other objects was discovered, the scientists forced him to wear a shock collar. But, it is unknown whether the collar impedes his ability or aids it. Before he discovered his ability, Flint spent his time working out or playing video or board games. He didn't really care much about anything or anyone. But with this mysterious ability, the boy spends every spare moment trying to disassemble and manipulate it to his will. Flint's confidence comes in fleeting spurts. He doesn't try to stand up to the guards or scientists as much as he would like, and frequently worries using his ability for the benefit of others will hurt them more than help. Growing up in the compound, Flint has seen many times the damage a shock collar can do and he lives in constant fear of the thing strapped to his neck. Every time he is anywhere near water he's overwhelmed by the fear something he does will trigger an electric shock. Like most, Flint isn't fond of the scientists or the things they do to him. His greatest trigger is anything white. The color is the most painfully obvious indication of the scientists and, unfortunately, it is the color of his own ward. When he's unable to find solace in his brother's company, Flint often turns to video games or the piano to calm him down. Unlike most patients Flint is lucky enough to be stuck in this compound with his brother, his twin in fact. The boys only know of their relation because after a careful analysis, they decoded their birth dates on their ID tags were the same, and as they grew up, they were faced with constant comments on their similar appearance.

Mental Characteristics:

Flint is driven by a constant need to understand his environment. After his sixteen years of living at the compound, the boy is quick to shy away from curiosities of what lies beyond the compound, but he's quite eager to understand everything that goes on inside. He's very intelligent and able to pick things apart, and it is the things he can't understand that become his obsession. One of his biggest pet peeves is when people talk about themselves and he just hasn't figured them out yet. Flint has often described it as being like when someone tells you how the book ends before you've gotten there first. His hobbies consist only of reading, working out, playing games, or obsessing over his ability. The boy is able to tinker a few notes on the piano, but the lack of a piano teacher has left him to try and decode Beethoven's on his own. Apparently he's quite good at it, but his self-confidence refuses to let him believe such claims. More than anything, the boy fears the scientists. It's not so much what they do to him but why are they doing it. He hasn't figured that part out yet either.

Social Characteristics:

Flint prefers to communicate through intent staring or intense conversations. The boy doesn't do small talk very well and often just stands there saying 'yup'. Despite his 'freak' status that somehow rendered him popular, Flint won't stand his ground against anyone unless they're picking on someone else. The man is quick to back down from conflict but won't turn a blind eye to someone else's suffering. Flint tends to act rather passive as if he couldn't care what happens to him, but when he finally snaps, it's usually very bad. He can bottle up months of emotions before they are all let loose in a flurry of curing or a violent fit that usually ends with him lying unconscious somewhere, his shock collar buzzing the hell out of itself.
